Russians Lost 150 000 Men at
Least—Big Capture Saturday.
Bv delay in pressing his pursuit of
Russia's defeated and demoralized army
to Tie Pass, Field Marshal Ovama has
afforded General Kuropatkin time to
sort out his disorganized units and re
store his forces to at least a semblance
of order. So far as known, there is no
considerable force of Japanese nearer
Tie Pass than 69 miles, but iu Russian
quarters» there is a feeling of apprehen
sion that some turning movement of
which there is no definite information is
in progress.
From Japanese sources it is reported
that many straggling parties of Russians
cut off from their commands in the re-
treat from Mukden, arc surrendering
upon the appearance of Japanese troops.
The council of war summoned by Em
peror is reported to have decided that
the war must lie carried farward. The
all-important question of financial means
however, is said to have reached no
solution, the situation being complicated
by the reported decision of French cap
italists not to negotiate the loan recent
ly offered by St. Petersburg.
The probability as regarded in St.
Petersburg seems to he that as soon as
General Kuropatkin has completed the |
task of reorganizing what is left of /the 1
army, he will be permitted to return,
and that the command in Manchuria will '
be entrusted to General Sukhomotoff, ;
whose war apprenticeship was served '
under General Dragomiroff, who has
been regarded as the foremost of Rus
sian scientific soldiers. It is possible,
however, that the command will go to
Grand Duke Nicholas Nicholaievitch.

Between 50,000 and 60,000 prisoners,

The Japanese losses do not exceed

Kuroki's army losing only 5000.
Field Marshal Oyama's plans com
pletely deceived General Kuropatkin.
The Russian commander misjudged the
positions and strength of the Japanese.
He at first thought that General Nogi's
Port Arthur armv was pressing his east
flank and concentrated a great force
there. This force he was afterwards
obliged to shift to Mukden, where it
arrived in a state of exhaustion after a
forced march, and was unable to fight
The retreat from Mukden began March
9. It became a demoralised flight when
the Russians discovered that their egress
was being blocked by Japanese infantry
and artillery from the Bait. The rapid
approach of the Japanese was a com
plete surprise to the Russians, who ex-
petted that their retreat would be
harassed only by Japanese cavalry from
the westward.

Field Marshal Oyama’s original plan
seems to have been to hold the Russians
along the Shakhe and work around them
with both wings, but the Japanese right
was fought to a standstill. The Russian
retreat from theShakhe, rapidly pursued,
gave the Japanese an opening t J cut the
Russian middle, surround Mukden and
isolate the Russian left.

Poles, Mongo's, Buriats and Kigliis.
Their clothing and equipment is much
inferior to that of the Japanese. The
Siberians who fought in the early months
of the war were the finest men that
Russia has had.

rendering, making an object s|>ectaclp.
The Japanese are treating them most

Convinced that Russia and Japan will
both soon succumb to the enormous
financial strain placed upon them by the
war, a diplomat representing one of the
neutral powers most interested in the
final issue, has, within the last two days,
sent a confidential message to his
government warning it to be on the
lookout for a secret agreement to he
negotiated between Russia and Japan
direct regarding the preliminaries for a
settlement of their difficulties. What it
was that prompted the sending of this
message cannot be learned, but its
author is an official at all times ex
ceptionally well informed on affairs of
state and diplomatic corps. His belief
that peace negotiations, when they
begin will be conducted between St.
Petersburg and Tokio direct, finds con
siderable credence.
Indeed, another
diplomat expressed the opinion that the
field of battle would be the scene of the
first negotiations between the belliger
ents looking to peace. However secret
the negotiations, it is declared that the
United States, Great Britain, Germany
and France are keenly on the alert for
such a development, and would promptly
demand the terms of the agreement for
their inspection. It is learned that the
Chinese government is prepared, when
the hour of peace comes, to call the
attention of the powers to the re
peated assurances which, at the invita
tion of the United States, each has given
their faithful adherence of the Hay
principles, that “ (’Ilina’s administrative
