NO. 45.
Tokio, May 4.—The war office has
received a dispatch from General Kur
oki, commanding the Japanese advance,
which tells of a complete Japanese
victory in the first general engagement
on land of the war. The Russian army
of 30,000, which General Kuropatkin
boastfully declared woulc sweep the
Japanese into tbe sea, is completely
routed and was compelled to retrest in
confusion on Feng Huan Cheng.
The Russian losses are very heavy,
while those of the Japaneee are de
clared to have been much smaller than
might have been expected, considering
that they had to wade the Yalu river
in the face of a withering fire from the
Russians, who were very strongly en
trenched. The Russian artillery had
been ¿ilenced by the Japaneee guns,
and they carried tbe Russian entrench
ment in a gallant bayonet charge in
which the men vied with the officers
to be the first to reach the interior of
the Rueeian position.
The unquenchable valor which re
sulted in the uninterrupted aeries of
victories during the war with China
was again very much in evidence.
Nothing could stop the troops, who,
tired with their long stay in the
trenches near Wiju, were anxious to
show that the aimy was fully as able
to bring honor to the mikado’s colors
as has been the navy.
The scenes in Tokio this morning are
well nigh indescribable. The streets
have been filled all night with anxiouB
people waiting to hear the latest news
from the front. Unfortunately, beyond
tbe fact that a great Japanese victory
has been won, there is little eise to be
learned. If the war office has received
a complete report, it is withheld for
strategic reasons.
