CHICAGO, March 18. For the first
two weeks after March 1, when the

Is understood she is bound for some Jap

A dispatch from Honolulu, March 17,

WRECK RAILROAD AS THEY GO
Russians Fight Continuous Battle
With Their Pursuers.
ST. PETERSBURG, March 18. (2:10 P.
M.) Telegraphic communication with the
retreating Russian army has been cut
for over 24 hours, but the authorities hope
it is only temporary, declaring that they
have no Information that the Japanese
have reached the railroad in General
Llnlevitch's rear.
Nevertheless, with the curtain down.
the War Office officially is the prey of
dire forebodings. The last word from
the front was contained in a telegram
from one of the Associated Press Russian
correspondents, the only correspondent
with the retreating army. It presaged
an attack from the rear. The telegram,
although dated Changtufu (40 miles north
of Tie Pass) at 4 o'clock Thursday after
noon, was sent from Kalyuan. 30 miles
north of Tie Pass, and only reached St.
Petersburg this morning. It was brief,
saying simply that the army was retiring
In good order and destroying the railroad
as it went, but was constantly pressed by
the Japanese, the rear-guard action being
continuous. There were ominous words
in the concluding sentence, as follows:
"We believe the Japanese are making a
wide turning movement northr and that
they are ready to fall upon us when we
get out of the ring of the group of
mountains which surround the Tie Pass
gorge."
In the long retreat to Harbin, the Rus
sians only have the advantage of the
Mandarin road as far as Kalyuan, whence
It bears eastward to Klrin, while the rail
road continues north of Harbin. Accord
ing to the general staff, however, a good
wagon road runs parallel to the railroad.
But for an army of a quarter of a million
men encumbered with impedimenta, with
an active enemy relentlessly pursuing and
operating on its flanks, and the constant
threat of the enemy closing the lino of
retreat, it is admitted that the single
railroad and wagon road afford poor prps
pects of General Linlevltch being able
to bring off the remnants of the army
confided to his care without a tremendous
sacrifice of life. If the Japanese actually
succeed In throwing a strong force across
the line of retreat, it Is recognized that
the army might be forced to capitulate.
In the meantime, the mobilization of a
new army has already begun in several
provinces, although the order has not yet
been published.
A division of the Imperial guards at EL
Petersburg was re-viewed today.
The newspapers generally indorse Llnle
vitch's selection as temporary commander-in-chief
on the ground that Kuropatr
kln'e lack of success made his superces
aion imperative. At the same time It is
recognized that Kuropatkln's failure also
rests on other shoulders, and pity Is ex
pressed at his sad fate.
Three Divisions In Fan River Battle
TOKIO, March 18. A dispatch from
the headquarters of the Japanese armies
In the field, dated yesterday, sass:
"According to statements made by
prisoners, the force of the enemy resist

March 15, consisted of three divisions.

Not Soon Yield.
NEW YORK, 'March 18. The Japanese
press considers that Manchuria Is now,
Bays a Times dispatch from Tokio, vir
tually in a state of Japanese occupation.
but the papers dismiss the thought of
speedy peace in view of the Russian re
luctance to admit defeat, under the cir
euros tances. therefore, it is held that It
will be essential to prosecute the war vig
orously.
The Premier. In speaking Friday night.
at a dinner of the Bankers' Club, asked
his hearers to conceive themselves In the
position of Russia, who, although aor-
mously superior in resources, population
and military renown. Is now confronted
with the painful question of suing for
peace with a nation hitherto regarded
with contempt. It would be unwise, he
added, to anticipate such a concession.
The Japanese, he added, must be prepared
to continue the war to the bitter end.

purpose.
Charcoal Is a remedy that the more

Charcoal sweetens tho breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating onions
and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears andlmproves
the complexion, it whitens the teeth and
further acts as a natural and eminently
