V - THE MORNING OREGONIAN, THURSDAY, PEBBUABY 2, K m WITH FROST His Was the Power That Beat Russians. DEFENSES ARE FROZEN Bombardment by Artillery Has But Little Effect. .COlD IS THE WORST ENEMY Soldiers Fight With Numbed Hands and Feet, Blood From Wounds Freezes and Death Comes Quickly to Wounded. RUSSIAN HEADQUARTERS, Iluan Mountain, Feb. 1. The .five days com bat which will go down In history iis the battle of the Hun River was fought out or a seemingly 'unending: plain, which Is broken only by the southern Amethyst Mountains around Yentai, the solitary eminence of which is the Liuo Vans tower of bloody memory, the bright glare of the sun reflected from a dazzling expanse of snow was painful to . the - eyes, and it was with difficulty -that one- could follow hrc and there black streaks marking the Russian columns Mor wavering skir mish lines dashing, against what re sembled duir gray rocks, which in reality wore thb villages of Ltdiatoun and Tanlopu and Vqe extensive hamlet of Sandepas, bastioned by. Chinese de fenaors and converted by the Japan ese into veritable fortresses, Exposed to the intense cold of u Manchurlan Winter, mounds of earth had'become like granite and .as impenetrable as the stcol sides of a modern battleship. For five days Russian soldiers hurled themselves against the defenses and the field artillery pounded them until the frosty air reverberated with the thun der of cannon, the din of bursting sholls and the rattle of musketry, but .neither steel-pointed shell nor nickel bullets availed against the frozen earthworks. The gunners actually wept with despair at the impotence of the attack. Mortar batteries came up at a gallop in the hope of demolishing the fortifications. Nignt and day the stream of shells was poured against the earthworks, but -it had little -effect. The men soemcd Indifferent to hun ger and cold, which latter was of Arc tic Intensity. Their fingers, hands and feet were benumbed, while tinging snow and dust blinded them. The slightest wotrflTr caused exceeding pain. "Warm blood no sooner exuded from lacerated flesh than it began to frcozc. The wounded could not be loft exposed, for. If they did not re ceive attention within an hour, they died. The surgeons, their assistants and nurses were almost powerless in tho bandaging of wounds, for they were obliged to wear leather gloves or , mittens in order to resist the cold. The men seemed to be living again the horrors of the Winter campaign of 1812 against the Turks. Everything that could be done was done; but man was powerless in the face of Nature, which heaped tortures upon the troops and' defeated the well-thought-out plan of the commander. bodies of Infantry --to attack the Japan ese outposts, where they were repulsed. On the, same day heavy Russian guns fiercely shelled Piyental and Chenchieti pao. On January 31 the Russians bombarded Chenchichpao. Lapati and Lltajentan, and two companies of Infantry attacked Chenchiehpao, advancing from the south end, -near Peltaitzu. The Japanese re pulsed" them. On January 30 two companies of Rus sian infantry unsuccessfully attacked Yatzupinao, two miles west of Chenchieh pao, and two battalions of Russian infan try and a regiment of cavalry failed in an attack on Tutaitzu. Field Marshal Oyama In reporting the wounded of Lloutenant-Gcneral MJstchcn ko, which-he had learned of Irom Rus sian prisoners, characterizes General Mlstchenko's attacks upon the Japanese flank as brave. vrmt" . ti 1 BACK IN OLD PLACES. Russiari Army Returns to Positions Held Before Battle. MUKDEN, Jan. 31 (Via Tientsin. Feb. 1). Cannonading on the center and right comnend again today. The Russian Army haj reoccupled its old positions, having returned from Sanchiapu, Sande pas. The main events in the Interior of Rus sia have been published In the official army paper, so that the troops to a cer tain extent realize the present conditions, but the plans for the army are shown to be entirely Independent of home 'events. The reason given by the commanders for retiring fully explains the army's move ments and shown them to have been Inde pendent of the weather. A large part of the wounded a being cared for at Mukden, where the hospitals and trains are filled and the Red Crpss t Corps Is active. The situation as It further develops Is. ! better realized and understood, though It is not less omlnoue. as the weather has moderated and the Japanese are aggres sive. Regarding the first reports of large Russian losses. It Is now said that a con siderable part of the first corn and Gen eral Stakelberg, Its commander, have re joined the main body of the army and re turned to their old positions. BOMBARDMENT GOES ON. Russians Fight to Head Off Turning - Movement of Japanese. ST. PETERSBURG. Feb. 1. From the reports of the General Staff, It is not clear yet whether the fighting on the Hun River is ended. The Russians continue the bombardment of Sande pas, and apparently a strong force of Russians is between Sandcpas and Shakhcpu to check the Japanese, who seem to be trying their former turning ' movement across the Hun Biver. .Nothing further has been heard of the Russian movement against the Japanese right. NEXT BATTLE IN THE OPEN Russians Prepare to Attack Japanese on Frozen Plain. GENERAL. OKU'S HEADQUARTERS, Jan. 27. noon, via Tientsin, Feb. L (Delayed in transmission.) After three months' inaction, there is now a prospect -that the armies of General Kuropatkln and Field Marshal Oyama will soon join 1n what may prove tho greatest battle of the war. For some days past the Bus Elans have been quietly massing troops on General Oku's left, evidently pre paratory to .an attempt at a turning movement For three days past a heavy artillery fire has been kept, up by the Russians on General Oku's left, running today to wards the center. The Japanese have not replied to the cannonade, awaiting an at tack by the Russians, who have been heavily reinforced. It Is believed now that they have numerous divisions along the Shakhe River. The Japanese force has also been increased, 'and everything now seems ready for the greatest con flict yet recorded in the history of the present war. The move on the part of the Russians seems to indicate a desire to strike soon. in a desperate attempt to avenge the fall of Port Arthur. Probably the revo lutionary outbreak in Russia has deter mined General Kuropatkln to make i desperate effort to gain a victory before the outbreak In Russia becomes known to the army. The utter failure of the recent Russian cavalry raid on the railroad shows the futility of further attempts of the kind. With the ground so solidly frozen, ad vancing troops would have great dlffl culty in entrenching to secure he slight est cover. The advantage of the situa tion would be entirely on the side of the 'army on tho defensive. With the thermometer at zero, and the ground covered with snow, a battle when fought would be over a great plain where the sojuth sun can be xt no- advantage to cither side. ' RUSSIANS RENEW ATTACK. Vain Attempts to Drive the Japanese From Villages Monday and Tuesday. TOKIO. Febil (Noon). Field Marshal Oyama. reporting yesterday, says that the Jlussians bombarded his center and .right wine on January 30. and cent small Not Criticism of Hay. LONDON, Feb. 1.

PETERSBURG. Feb. 1. It is ex tremely significant that, following the Associated Press Interview with Grand Duke Vladimir yesterday morning, Souvorln, editor of tho Novoe Vreniya, in that paper this morning comes out strongly In favor of a Zemsky Zabor (Old Land Parliament), which he de clares will not only maintain, but will strengthen autocracy. It would be a channel of communication between the sovereign and tho people, without which it would be impossible to have lasting reforms. MUST NATIONALIZE LAND.
