According to advices received at Tokio, a general engagement is in progress betwtfB the Liao Yang and Mukden but reports ; from Bussiaa sources- describe the fighting there as merely in the nature of advanee guard actions.- Kuropatkin is reported as aiming to strike simultaneously at two wider separated points on the Japan ese left.; There, has been hard fighting a short distance north : of Bensihu, in which the Bussian loss of 150 "killed or wounded is admitted, i Tbo Japanese say they have ent off the Bussian col umn south of the Taitse river. No of ficial reports from the front were re ceived, by the Russian war owe last night and this fact is regarded in some quarters as 'indicating non-suecess thus far of Kuropatkin 'a forward movement. Military authorities, however, point out that owing to the magnitude of the movement planned, it is too early to ex pect news of decisive results. ' TOKIO, Oct. 12. Beports dispatched hut night from the scene of battle rag ing along the extended front of the cen tral point north of . Yentai westward across the railroad southeast of Bensi hu on the Taitse river say the struggle continued undecisively throughout the day. The Japanese commanders' avow ed purpose was to eontjnns the assault throughout the night and following day. The Russians have a great foree close to the Taitse river. Apparently Oya ma 'a attack was timed to interrupt the strong turning movement "threatening Liao Jfang itself. ! The report from the right army says: The enemy's artillery opened a severe attack at 10 o'clock on Tuesday at Bensihu. He is bombarding the points between Ta Pass and Bensihu. In the direction of Tumentzu Pass another ar tillery duel is progressing. : Our detach ment sent to the left bank of the Tai tse river returned after driving the en emy back.' ; The enemy is holding the POLITICS DULL ABSOLUTE QUIET BEIGNS IN THE PBESIDENTIAIf CAMPAIGN 1, IN THIS STATE. What Is to Be Done Yet Mar Awaken Things a Little The Coming City Election and Candidates for 'City Of fices Yonny Bepoblicans. ..- .'- "- ' tJ : i.." PoliUcs in Oregon is a very, quiet af fair r present. In fact there Js abso lutely nothin. doing at all Jn politics. Presidential election n-sver, came on' so quietly before as at this time. Bepub Ifeans seem to think there can be no doubt at all of the result, and therefore are not working. Democrats are in the same state of , mind and hence care not to burn their good money trying to make a campaign where there is no hope for them to get above the class "that .also ran." . V The only people getting any fnn out of this campaign are the Socialists and Prohis. ., These latter are not ia itfor Mr. Swallow, but they are working to prevent the continuance of the usual and accustomed swallow from going the route it has so long and so consistently traveled. However, there may be something do ing yet before the day of election comes aroun-1. Chairman . naK?r or tne tie publican State Committee, has publish ed a large list of spell-binders who may yet be heard during the few weeks in tervening, and there ia no telling jwhat quantities; of enthusiasm they may cause to rise up-' and ,'say, what's that." The Young 'Men's Republican Club and the Salem Roosevelt League have evidently been resting thinking that the enormous majorities rolled up here : in June were full guarantees of the success of the national ticket in November, and so they should, provid ing the vote comes out. k : But it is said that here is the rub. Will the vote be sotten . .out. is the question. The National Committee has so far transported no great quantity of funds for carriage hire for the boys into Oregon. It is like the story told of the late Joseph Meek who was provis ional governor at Oregon City. A num ber of employes of the government. In cluding some soldiers, were behind in their pay, and a small quantity of money having come into Astoria by ship, was brought to Oregon City,, then the capital. A number of the "boys" then, as now, desirous of some of the neeesssrv needful, marched up to Gov. Meek and asked for pay. Th old man looked tbem over kindly, but in a very disannointed tone remarked: I'se vehr sohy, boys. ; but thar's bar'Iy enough for the officers,; bahly enough for the officers.' - ... " So it is in this Presidential . cam paign so far this year. 'However, there is a probability that something will be doing here soon. ; -, ,-. The city election eoming on in De cember will make a little difference soon, and the bora are' beginning to awaken to the necessities of a little better organization tbaa they have had for that -fiwtpign.- It is said that candidates for the two pricipal city offices are as thick as fleas on a drfg's l.ak. .'For marshal the names of half a dozen men 5 have been mentioned, among them being the present chair man of the cornittee on streets in the council, A. Oesner; the present nieht watch St. the. cgurt houp, Louis Fob som: A.A. Disque. the cab man who was defeated two years ago. for the marsbil- sbip; James Lewis, niht pncrman at prriv'nit "d . T.

'The ad vance affected by us today was compar atively favorable, "We are continuing the attaek against the line extending from Patshiapo to Luitunkow. The right eolnma took: possession of Yang Cheuang and if advancing toward Lius nachiatzu. The left column is menac ing the right flank of the enemy- hold ing . Chaaovitzu and Yuehiatientzu. Should the commander be unable to accomplish his purpose before' sundown he will continue the attack during the night and following day." . - j Fear for Kuropatkin. , - St. Petersburg, Oct. 12. No official X , viJ kf " .;Zr 1L. . Ik 9 4 a .1 1 HI.IF hour.- Kuropatkin-.- doubtlea commun icated the regular report to the Emper or, bat the dispatch was not sent to the I general staff tonight. The absence of official, news is pessimistically interpreted-in many quarters.-. . While it is now asserted Kuropatkin enjoys a consider aby superior foree in numbers, fear is expressed the superiority is insufficient to enable him to carry out the big op erations undertaken. , ... f DO NOT POINT TO SUCCESS, r LONDON, Oct. 12. The battle rag ing south of Mukden has revived full public interest in the war. Peaee-raeal reports from both sides are discussed and analyzed in the fullest details, in the belief that this will prove the great est engagement' of the - present cam paign and the. news so .far received, in clines miltary experts . to the opinion that Kuropatkin is running a tremen dous risk bv'the'bold initiative.' ' No confirmation of the, report that Miatcb enko a force is eut off and the fact that Oyama 's report doe not mention, him is regarded as pointing to his escape. At the same time dispatches do not yet point to success on the Russian side and the motive underlying Kuropatkin 's de cison to assume offiensive difficult to understand as before.' will have the lead at the finish is hard to sav. and as yet.bere have been no petitions sent outamong the stalwarts. For city recorderMrrWSaid'ifaft are a number of candidates, among whom are Wylie A.

Gaddis asked her to make him the happiest of mortals a yor ago by becoming bis wife, and she re fused "him. "In procuring the license at the office of County Cb?rk Fields, Cad dis said his residence was in Douglas county ami that Miss Jones lived in Portland. D, J. Durand signed the af fidavit as a witness, which leaves him open to a perjury" charge, but it is not clear under what statute Caddis could be prosecuted. It cannot be imagined why he caused the license to be issued unless his mind is unbalanced, and his mental condition may be inquired into. "Ansa Jones" saw notice of the issu ance of the license in the newspapers anil immediately- told her father about it. Mr. Jones rime to Portland yesterdar. morning and obtained a certified copy of the marriage antdavit. He will take legal advice as to what course is best to. pursue." . Cause of Lockjaw.
