Holly Pursuing the Enemy.
Report received in the afternoon Of
the 18th of March.
Our various detachments holly
pursuing enemy from all directions
and inficting considerable damage
upon him everywhere Occupied on
the afternoon of the 10th of March the
line extending Is miles to the north Of
Hunho and are still continuing pursuit
On the 18th of March.
Cur detachment, which proceeded
nOrthward on the morning of the 18th
Of March from the neighborhood Of
Puho, met large column of the enc
my retreating northwards and after
hand-tO-hand fighting we enveloped
the column which finally surrendered.
Near Mukden we are now engaged
in clearing remnants of the routed en-
envy, some of whom still continue re-
sistance, while the others come to sur
render.
Heaps of Russian corpses are
found everywhere.

timated up to the 10th OF March 90
900, and since then is continuously in
creaSing.

Heavy Fighting Anticipated
Toxic, March 13.-The Japanese
pursuit of the Russian armies contin-
ues and a resumption of heavy fight
ing in the vicinity Of Tie Pass is an
ticipated. Tie Pass. which is natur-
ally strong, has been extensively for
tilted and it is thought the Russians
will rally there in an 'endeavOr to
check the Japanese. The rapidly adj
vancing Japanese already are in touch
at Tie Pass. The Russians evidently
are confused and exhausted and posi-
bly, are short of food and ammunition,
and it is believed here they will be
unable to resist strong attack.
Succeeding field reports increase the
extent of the Russian disaster. 1t will
require months to re-supply and reOr-
ganize the Russian armies. Estimates
of casualties given by captives reach
40 per cent The artillery losses were
especially heavy.
