BROWN MEN OUTGENERALED Slake Desperate Efforts to Cnp ture Russian rotations but Ar liepulel With Much Lous. Slmouchengr, Manchuria, Aug. . There was heavy fighting here for two days. The Japanese commenced the attack at dawn on July SO with a long range rifle fire on the Russian right. The Russians wasted no ammunition In replying to this fire and the Jap anese brought a mountain battery to their support. They then moved for ward In order to secure a better range, the Infantry racing across the Russian sone of fire to secure a post nearer to the ridge on the Ruftslun right Many fell during the advance, but the re mainder gallantly pressed on and got the cover of the ridge. The battery fol lowed, galloping forward recklessly as well as the nature of the ground per mitted. There was no fault to find with their shooting from the new posi tion, from which they concentrated their shell and rifle fire on the Rus sians, compelling the latter to full back 100 yards to better cover. A battery coming to the support of the Russians turned the tide of battle and silenced the Japanese guns, four of which were dismounted. The Japanese then re treated from their position and with the remainder of their forces attacked and pressed other points of the Rua slan lines, creeping up through the Kaolin fields to within 100 yards of the Russian trenches. They lost hcav ily. The Russians, however, did not suffer except from the extreme heat. Towards evening the Russians tapped the Japanese heliograph communica tion and found the Japanese were pre paring for a flank movement. Lieutenant-General Zassillteh extended his flank companies and headed off the movement General Mistchenko had a hot fight on the Russian flank. His cavalry at tacked the Japanese, indicting heavy losses and retiring safely to its former position. The battle was resumed hotly on the morning of July 31; the Japanese tried to envelope the Russian left, but they were met by a division of a brigade posted especially in expectation of their movement and were driven back with loss.
