Gener al b ckelberg, through the army hea' quarters at Harbin, reports a nuiuuer of desperate . skirmishes with the Japanese, in which both sides lost heavily and in one . of which tbe Russian Oreueral Gem- toss was severely wounded. At midday yesterday an entire division of Japanese made a desperate at tack on the left flank of the Rus sian position at Vafangow. They attacked in three columns and after shelling the Russians . with heavy artillery made a furious bayonet charge in the face of a charge from raDid fire guns and musketry. Itae desperation of the Japanese charge is shown by the' fact that some of them succeeded in getting within a few yards of the Ruasianjtrenches before they were shot down. They were finally compelled to retire, leaving fully 300 dead behind. The First (Siberian Rifles bore the brunt of the attack, and their losses were very heavy. Their com mander, Colonel Kavastounoff, fell almost in the first fire, with a bul let through his brain. Adjutant Sub-Lieutenant Nodochinsky WAS killed almost at the same time Two majors and a number: of offi cers of leseer rank were . picked off by the Japanese sharpshooter, whose fire was unusually deadly and accurate. General Gernross was hot just as the Japanese attacking coluo.ii column broke and fled. A shrap nel bullet shattered one side of hie jaw, but he refused to retire. London, Jane 15.
