Headquarters of General Oku's
left army in the' field,-Oct. 14, 2 P.
M. Via Teen, Oct. 18. The way i
tn Miikrtpn in Miriarentlv nnon ' The.i
last remnants of the Russian forces
on the plain north of Yentai are be
ing driven out of their position by
a heavy shell fire. The Russians
appear to have been defeated utter
ly at least on the right flank. They
are retiring hastily, and it is hard
ly probable that they will - make
another stand south of Mukden, un
less along the Hun river.
The strategy of the Japanese appar
ently has been entirely' successful,
and the co-operation of the left, cen
ter and right armies has been'' per
fect. The battle began unexpect
edly on Sunday night, October 9,
by an attack, on a hill five miles
north of Yentai, which the Russians
had begun to fortify. The right
column of the left army advanced
against this hill on that night and
drove the Russians out after a
hand-to-hand encounter. On the
same night, the center and left col
umns advanced and took up posi
tions in a line of villages four miles
north of Yentai, placing their artil
lery and preparing for a conflict on
Monday. ' Oa Monday - morning,
the Japanese began shelling the
Russian positions. The Russians
answered briskly and a terrific ar
tillery duel was kept up ' all day

in 1500 yards of the Russian lines,
taking up a position along a line of
villages.
During Tuesday the Japanese re
pulsed fierce Russian attacks, the
Russians tbree times dashing across
the plains separating the. two lines
against the Japanese trenches and
recoiling irom the shock. All that
day the field guns of both sides
poured shrapnel into the trenches,
while the infantry fired almost con
tinuous volleys across the plain.
The Russians lost heavily in the at
tacks, the attackers being almost
annihilated. .
During the night the Russians
withdrew for some two thousand
yards and the Japanese took up an
advance position at the same time.
Early on Wednesday morning, the
Russians made an attempt to drive
the Japanese back but the attempt
was not successful. During the
morning, the Japanese continued
their stead advance forward. At
2 o'clock in tbe afternoou the Jap
anese made their last rush, arriving
at the Russian position in dis order,
but capturing the full battery of
eight guns. The whole force of ar
tillery of the left army was turned
on the retreating Russians, causing
much havoc among them. The left
wing circled the Russians extreme
right, forcing the Russian flank
back on the center and capturing
12 guns in a desperate infantry
charge.
- lhe Russians during the day
fought bravely and desperately, do
ing all that men could do, but they
were unable to check the advance
of the Japanese. The los3 to the
RuEsians is believed to far exceed
those of the Japanese as the result
of the day's fighting. The Japan
ese center" column captured four
guna and the left column took 10,
000 rounds of gun ammunition.
The Japanese artillery repeated
the excellent precision that it has
displayed in other battles. Accord
ing to their practice, the Japanese
used a number of batteries captur
ed from the Russians. Wednesday
night and Thursday morning, . the
whole left army advanced between
two and three miles, swinging its
flank toward the railway and driv
ing the Russians to the hills paral
lel with and east of the railway. -
In the meantime the right army
(General Kuroki's) occupied a line
in the high hills to the east, cutting
off the Russians. General Nodzu's
center army which formed the bot
tom of the net moved forward. Both
armies bad eevere fighting but they
quickly carried oat their plans by
f lowly driving back and encircling
the Russian?, capturing guns, am
munition and men.
On Thursday morning the. Rus
sians occupied a line on a range of
bills extending generally in a south
easterly direction, the north end of
the line just across the Tailway. It
is believed this is the range of hills
formerly occupied by General Ku
rokt's forces. To the southeast was1
the plain occupied by General Oku.
'- The battle opened at. daylight
with heavy artillery on both sides.
The Japanese gradually moved for
ward during the day, swinging their
wing around and partially envelop
ing the Russian right. At dusk
the left wing of the left army mov-
ied to 106 right and a strong advance
'was - made during the night. aimoBt

On Friday morning the artillery
fight was resumed. ,
The infantry also advanced. The
left column took a village, captur
ing 12 guns, and then moved on to
another village, from which they
drove the Russians after a sharp
hght. The Russians made a coun
ter attack and were only repulsed
after a sharp hand-to-hand encoun
ter. The Russians broke in confu
sion and retired in the direction of
Mukden. At 11 o'clock in the
morning, the Japanese flag was
raised on a hill on the extreme right
ot the Russian position.
The only position now held by
'the Russians in in the center, where
a fierce fight ; is now being waged.
The Russians appear to be cut off.
' While the battle was not so im
portant as that of Liao Yang, it was
a very big affair. ' The losses have
not been estimated.

It was stated after tbe fight that
Johnson fought as he did last night
in order to demonstrate that he was
entitled to consideration from Jef
fries. Johnson's manager stated
he would issue a formal challenge
in behalf of Johnson at once to fight
the champion of the world.
Manager McCarey, of the 'Centu
ry Athletic Club, announced he
would offer a $15,ooo guarantee for
a match between Jeffries and John
son, the battle to come off here
some time this winter. This will
compell Jeffries to accept, as sports
here will not stand for the color
line. Jeffries tonight said he had
not decided finally yet. His friends
however, say he must fight.

With General Oku's left army at
the front, Oct. 16. The seven days
battle north of Yentai was tbe
heaviest blow yet struck the Rus
sians by the Japanese, so far as loss
of life is concerned. The left Jap
anese army during the week buried
4100 Russian dead left in front of
its lines. A village in front of the
left wing contains many Russian
dead, but the shell fire of the re'
treating Russians prevents the Jap
anese from reaching them. Con
eervative estimates place the Rus
sian casualties at not less than 25,
000. Probably many more dead
are on the field in places not yet
searched. The Japanese report
their total casualties at a little over
3ooo kiUed and wounded.
The principal Russian casualties
occurred in determining counter at
tacks against each village captured
by the Japanese. The Russian at
tacking parties were in many cases
entirely abnihilated. , For the first
time the Russians .have met the
Japanese on an equal footing, not
having strong defensive positions to
depend upon, and for the first time
they attacked the Japanese in their
own trenches. The Russians every
where fought bravely, bet they
were unable to drive- the Japanese
out or to hold their own positions
against fierce charges.
Almost in every case the Rus
sians retired from their positions at
the first charge, then made reneat-
ed attempts to recaDture them. The
Japanese left army during the past
seven days' fighting. has . captured
6i guns, a large number of rifles
and overcoats and 100 prisoners.
ine strengtn ot the Russians op
posed to the left army were three
corps and 30 companies of artillery.
All but a very small part were new
ly arrived troops. '
The Japanese soldiers were prac
tically the same that fought before
Liao Yang. Chinese. report that
heavy works are ready forthe Rue
siana alone the Hun . river. The
Japanese are undecided where the
next stand will be made.
Details of the -operations of the
right and center armies are not ob
tainable. London, Oct. 19. A dispatch to
the Japanese legation from Tokio
today, says: : v .? -
"Field Marshal Oyama reports
that on Tuesday the enemy seemed
gradually decreasing his force in
the direction of the.right army, on-
small detachments continuing
activity. The enemy beaten nt
Bensihu is retreating northward.
'in the direction of the central
army the enemy last night made
assaults, but they were repulsed,
and today there have been only oc
casional exchanges of cann6nades.
"In front of the left army the en
emy is occasionally firing."
Maps captured by tbe Japaneee
show that the Russians hau arrang
ed for a series of retreat?, and these
maps indicated where stands were
to be made. This accounts for the
slowness of the advance of the Jap
anese and their failure to cu' off the
Russian retreat, which was con
ducted with great skill. - Ravines
and gollieB met with bythe Japan
ese obstructed tbe advance. The
cavalry on the left crossed the Hun
river and prevented a flanking
movement.
London, Oct, 19. Discussing the
probabilities of a challenge for the
America's cup, the Yachting World "
says:
"Many have taken it for granted
that all proposals had been definite
ly shelved so far as Sir Thomas
Lip ton was concerned ; but there is
less justification for the assumption
that his regrettable withdrawal
means the total collapse of all chan- ..
ces of an immediate re-opening of
the contest. Kenneth M. Clarke,
one of the foremost. Clyde yacht
owners,l'dropped his aspirations .
nucu uipvuu ixiwou a.ga.ul uuu uio '
interest in this international phase
of sport remains unabated, and re
cent negotiations bring it well with
in the bounds of possibility that he
may enter the contest.
Sir Thomas Lipton was shown
the Yachting World's article today
and said to the Associated Press
that'it is utterly incorrect to assume
that he has abandoned the idea of
challenging for the America's cup.
He had, he said, laced great diffi
culties in securing a designer, but
be had pot given up. He had give n
Goorge L. Oatson carte blanche in
the matter of securing a boat, an d
was still hopeful of success.
