â- ^' .'i #, BIG BA TTLE IS P BOGBESS ' â€" - Tokio Hears a G-eneral Engagement Has Begun. ENGAOEITENT BKGUN. 'A despatch to the London Express from Tokio says that a heavy im- gagament with Gon. Kouropatkin's entire army has begun near Mukden. The Russian positions are being vig- orously shelled. Field Marshal Oya- xna. prepared on Friday to carry out the general stall's instructions to assault Mukden and endeavor again to cut oft Gen. Kouropatkin's re- treat. The Japanese front is stantly receiving additional hca^-y guns. Sonne of these have been mounted in a fort captured by the Japanese two miles east of Golden Hill. This fort is not regarded as an essential point in tho defence, al- thOTigh their inability to reply to the fire therefrom, owing to their in- ferior powder, is annoying the Rus- sians. Five 11-tnch guns on Golden Hill, which forn>orly pointed sea- waj-d, have been renvountwl and three miles long. Gen. Kuroki is on the now point landwar.d. All the naval extreme right. He is not yet en- gaged. He is endeavoring to turn the Russian flank. ON RUSSIAN FLANKS. A despatch from Mukden says : â€" The Japanese are reported to be ad- vax)cing on both flanks, from the east., south-east and south-west. The outp&sts are closely engaged twenty miles southward, there being almost constant skirmishing. Indicatio^is point to another great battle in the vicinity of Mukden. Russian troops occupy all the sur- rounding villages. Refugees arc flocking in the city. Chinese among them complain of se- verity on the part of the Japanese. JAPS REINFORCED. A despatch from St. Petersburg says : â€" Gen. Sakharoff has reported the general staff under date of Sept. 17: â€" "The Manchurian army was no- where engaged on Sept. 16 or 17. The arrival of considerable reinforce- ments is noticeable at the advance posts of tho whole of the enemy's front, and especially near tho Village of Bianipusea and cast of the rail- way towar^l the Yentai mines." It is announced from Mukden that both the Russian and the Japanese generals have promised to respect thg tombs and palace there. SHORTAGE OF HORSES. A de.'Jpatch to tho London Morning Post fronx Shanghai .says that one of the reasons Gen. Kouropatkin was forced to abandon and destroy his vast stores at Liao-Yang was the want of trnn.sport, due to the non- nrrival of thousands of horses there. These animals had to rest at the de- pots at various staR<?s of the jour- ney. They were found to be suscep- tible of diseases from which the local horses were fairly exempt. Of 4,- 000 animals collected at Omsk two months ago, S.OW wove suddenly at- tacked with partial or total_ blind- ness, requiring several weeks' treat- ment. A fearful epidemic of glanders is raging in Manchuria. $60,000,000 A MONTH. A des'patch from London says; Tho following estimate of tho finan- cial position of the belligleronts, though necessarily ba.scd on guess- work as regards details, is genei-ally accepted as correct in its. broad fea- tures. Japan is believed to bo .spending $15,00«),(MJ0 sterling monthly in her military operations. As tho national debt is small. Her other expenditure is far below Iter receipts, find her trade is increasing even while the •war goes on. Her position is excel- lent, thou,gh she had to pay high for her first loan. Ifcr recent successes will probably enable her to borraw more cheaply in future. Russia's war expenditure is esti- mated at $45,000,000 monthly. Her finances arc far from sound at pres- ent, in spite of the vustno.ss of her latent wealth. She hjis hitherto ^ecn. living on the French loan raise<l in May, but an ukase has just author- ized the i.ssuo of new rente bonds for J!7r>, 000,000. It is believed she hopes to negoti- ate a large loan shortly in Geruiiany. 24,0i00 INVALIDED. â-  A de.'»j)atch from Shanghai .says: Tho North China Daily News pub- lishes a private letter from a Chin- use interpreter employed from 1897 Until the end of August last in the Coni,inis.sariat Department at Port Arth\ir. The writer says that in Febniary last the dej>artmont sup- plied daily 33,000 rations to the Rii.ssian land forces alone, the naval forces supplying them';elves. "lUit guns, except the 10 and 13-incbers. have been removed to tho land bat- teries. The guns on Golden Hill, which threatened Shuishyen a month ago, cannot now reach that place. RESERVES CALLED OUT. A despatch to the London Express sent from Tokio, by --JTHy of Shang- hai, says that the statl has issued an order culling out the militia, which is Japan's reserve. The lirst line, incliidink^ all able-bodied men between 30 and 40 years, is now mobilizing, and probably will bo sent to the front before the end of thi.s year's campaign. The depar- ture of these troops will loavo the last line of militia as Japan's only military rosoivee. This line includes many men over 40 years of age. The greater part of the militia is now in bari-acks. The Government did not expect to mobilize them before Spring, but the losses in Manchiiiria and Port Arthojr have necessitated the replonsihing of the armies in the field without delay, in oi"der ta keep pace with the Russian rein- forcements, which are pouring into Harbin. Details of Field Marshal Oyama's great Io.>?ses continue to arrive. The Kamaiziawa Regiment has been the greatest sufferer in the can^paign. It has lost all of its aflicers excupt one. The friends of the dead soldiers will not be allowed to celebrate funeral rites until the losses are otdicially announced. The announcomont is being withheld, its eOect upon t)he [ublic being feared. Tho Kamazawa Regiment is now at Port Arthur. profits as were made from the em- ployment of labor and the sale of conmiodlties previous to the lighting have gone into the pockets of a few clover exploiters, or have been swal- lowed up In tho devastation follow- ing the battles. ALEXIEFF HAS RESIGNED. The .St. Petersburg correspondent of tho Echo do Paris saj-s that Vice- roy AlexiolT, desirous to avoid giving color to tho reports of antagonism between Gen. Kouropatkin and him- self, has asked tho Czar to relieve him from the nominal post of com- mander of the laud and sea forces of Russia in the Far East, which command he has nover exorci.soti, and that he bi> required to exercise po- litical functions only. Tho Qzar is said to have consented. LEADING MARKETS. the Buliag Prices In Live and Breadstuffs. Stock KAISER AND C7.AR. A Polish newspaper, published Cracow, says that the Kaiser have a meeting with the Czar Skiernowice, a town of Poland, miles south-west of Warsaw, .shortly and that great political importance is ascribed in St. Petersburg to the meeting. at will at 43 ABIMUNITION EXHAUSTED. A despatch from Tokio says : â€" Field Marshal Oyama reports that some of the enemy, with a fow guns, are postefi in the direction of Saii- keishi. They frequently fire at tho Japanese. There is some Riissi.in cavalry at Wulitatsu and Shua;ig- Tnitsu. The enemy has al.so bej/i in .^veral places between Sinminti i^ and Mukden. Gon. Nodzu reports that tho am- munition of the Japanese right col umn was gradually running out in Sept. 3. although tlic enemy's Ire had not diminished. This decided Gen. Noduz to order a bayonet charge. The Russian Grc for souie time, however, prevented the Jap^-.- ese from getting in. It was only at 7.50 in the evening that the Twen- tieth Infantry succeeded in breaking through. Other irharges followed Position after position waa rushjil, but after the entrenchments were oc- cupied the Russians fired fiercely from the walls of Liuo-Yang. It was not until 10.20 that Gen. Nodzu's troops occupied tho south gate ii the city and bivouacked. The whole line of entrenchments and the northern city were not secured until after midnight. Gen. Noduz sent a force east of the city at dawn on Sept. 4 to purstic the Ru.-tsians, but the destruction of tho bridges pre- vented them from crosjiing tho Tails-.- River, BREAD.STUFF.S.

A despatch tp tho London Daily Mail from Tokio, sent by way of Shanghai, says that tho Chinese are greatly alarmed by the prospect of a battle around Mukden, not so much because of the danger to the city ilh'clt as because of the i>racti- cal certainty of tho demolition of the Fuhlian. This place occupies a wooded eminence eight miles east of Mukden, and clo.se to the Ilun River. It is an important strategic posi- tion, which inevitably will bo the obcct of artillery assaults. Chang Chun, tho Chiiiie.'-.v: Governor, made representations to Pekin on the sub- | most skilful in history, and conLrar- SKILFUL RETRE.VT. A despatch from London says :â€" Gen. Kouropatkin's latest report is regarded here as candid, soldierly and lucid, giving a clearer appreciation of tho happening than the more grau- hic accounts of the correspondoo's. Nevertheless it does not alTect the judgement of the critics. The result coniirms in the holders of rival views hero their respective opinions th,it tho honors rest with Gen. Kouropat- kin, whoso retreat was ono of the ject, and retiuestod that diplomatic influence be oxorted with the view of inducing the combatants to light elsewhere. A reply from Pekin dir- ected Chang Chun to appeal direct to tho commanders of tho Russian and Japanese armies, which was done without, however, eliciting a re- sponse. It is now taken for granted that both armies intend to decide their fortunes by a pitched battle on the open plain along the Hun River. The Ja[>anese will not po.s- sess the crushing advantage of hav- ing hills positions from which flatik- ing movements can be made. As there will be a more equal front, there will bo a protracted and fiercer struggle, and the result will bo more deci'lve than at Liao-Yang. Tho Ru.ssians claim that they were unablo to hold their former positions against their strategical disadvantages, and that their aimy was not beaten.

A despatch to tho London Express from Lubock describes a .series of di.sa.slers that occurred at tho Gor- man military manoeuvres. Two pri- vates were shol in one sham battle, and one was killed. Over tifty were unhorsed and more or loss seriously injured in a cavalry change. In an- other charge a lancer transfixed and killed a hussar. Another hussar was wounded, necesEitating the ampu- tation of a leg. -V private lost both his legs in an artillery contest at Muhlenreichsen. \n oliicer was sov- erol.v injured by the explosion of a military balloon and a corporal was mortally injured by another explo- sion. In a cavalry cltargo at Cch- oenhausen two olllcers and twenty men were thrown from their horses and injured, some of them fatally. In another charge 48 were thrown from their horses. A sergeant was killed in an infantry attack and a dragoon was fatally wounded by a lancer. There were similar casual- ties in other districts. On tho tlrst day of the manoeuvres the Emerpor conmianded tho reds or iuvadiiig force, and won a brilliant victory over the blues, the defenders. The next day tie commanded the blues and gained a striking and decisive victory over the reds. SCENES OF DEV.\STATION, Tho correspondent of the London Daily Mail at Mukden pictures the pitiable condition of tho natives in tho area of operations. Chinese re- fugees, he says, are now iiouring in- to Mukden, as tho.v earlier streamed into Hai-Chcng and Liao-Yang. Thero arc sad processions on every road, carrying remnants of their pos.so&- . _ sions. a few lean ponies or oxen, when," ho adds, "we departed, only [ jmi,, gt^,,.ejj „( j,,.,ij„ „„(! household Some ride on carts, imiuding women and 15,000 rations were supplied Aiily j ,,j,>.s^„jsio„g, to tho whole garrison, inclmling tho j but many crows of the ironclad.s, which aro now manning the forts. There are now 24,000 ^â- ick and wt.undod men at Port Arthur. Of ammunition of all kinds there are very small stocks, and there are only (ivo weeks' full rations re-.naining." The intorprelor also sn.vs the gar- rison of Port Arthur, tho officers ex- cepted, is anxious to surrender. STILL .SHELLING FORTRE.S.S. A despatch from Chefoo says: It is stattxl that the Jni>ano.se fleet now approaches Port Arthur much nearer than formerly, and that the war.sihips Arc n few .=>liolls doily. One of the latter struck a torpedo-boat de- stroyer that was in dock for repairs, wrecking it and killing seven men. children, are compelled to walk in tho deep mud. All of them abandoned their only real wealth, consisting of standing crops of millet and beans, that wore ready for harvesting. Des- titution faces them this winter. Tho whole fertile plain south of Mukden is depi>pulatod. l"ho Hun River valle.v, and the country west and east are all deserted. Some of tho inhabitants cros.>4od the Liao Kiver and wont westward, while others fled to the forests to the east, where Christians hid during the Box- er terror. Tho neutrality of the vil- lages in the battle area increased their danger in ono respect, bocnu.se each combatant.

This explains the ily, that tho Russians suffered a severe defeat, which was prevental from being overwhelming by Go- . Kouropatkin's prompt order to le- treat and his skill in conducting the withdrawal. It is held that C;»n. Orloff's failure at Syk\vanlun, or ,13 the Japanese call it, Heiyingtai, de- cided the result. It is remarked uS strange that Gon. Kouropatkin djes not refer to the dangerous posii.iii in which for a time his ,novemo.it.i wore placeo by Con. Kuroki.
