Kluchwang, May 28. (Morning.)-
A staff officer Just from Mukden aaya
the deliberation and precision of the
enemy haa surprised General Kuropat
kin, who at first believed the Japanese
campaign would be one of dashing
rerklesness with more theatrical dis
play about the maneuvers than strat
egy. A Chinese merchant Just arrived,
who left Dalny Ave days ago, says the
Russians have vacated the town which
at the time of his departure had not
been occupied by the Japanese forces.
The latter were still engaged In land
ing troops at Klnchou bay. It Is said
upon excellent authority that the Jap
anese plan Is to use a force of 100,000
men In their operations against Port
Arthur and take It by storm In a fort
night. They realize that their losses
in the execution of this plan will be
severe, but It Is considered better to
risk that than to" keep a large army
Idle-for three months. They do not
propose, It Is further said, to pene
trate into the Interior of the country
any further than Mukden.
