The report from Russian sources gire a more hopeful view oi the situa tion of Kuropatkin 'a array. That eom tnander re-oeeupied and holds the town of Bbakhe, possession of wbich for sev eral day wai first with one and then with another of the contending; armies. Reports from the Russian left wing, the safety, of which had been the cause of anxiety, are no later than, the wight of October 13. They have been fighting two uays for oossession of Turn in Pass, an important strategic point, but up to tb roiot of sending the last dispateh, the Japanese are still in poasessiou of the pass. In order that this column may be able toejoin the main army it will be necessary for Kuropatkin to bold the bridges over the Hun river and the position be now occupies on Shnkhe river. No indication of the end of the great battle is at band. Estimates of losses show a wide divergence but as a rule they are lower than those given in Sunday's dispatelics. Russians Reassured by News. , St. Petersburg, Oct. 18. (3:15 a. m.) News from the front is more reassur ing from a Russian standpoint. The situation is still regarded as critical but Kuropatkin is apparently holding the Japanese firmly on the center and right wing even having re-crossed the Shakhe river and while there are rumors of eitcnsiv Japanese flanking movements both on the went and east, there is no evidence that they are actually occur ring. Knropatkin's left has been heard from. Tire Associated Press has the Unit connected report of tho four days' fight in front of Tumen and Baitchoun , Passes, resulting id the final withdraw al ot the strong Russian column which hsd been sent to turn the Japanese right, though Oeneral Mistcbonko seems to have actually penetrated a eoiisi'lersbe distance inside the Japan . e line. ' .... . . The situation may bo described as follow: General Kuropatkin baa slight- r advanced his center, re-ocenpying Kiakho, south of Shakho river. Direct ly behind him at a distance of nine mile lien tho Hun river and across the bridges spanning this stream the Rus sians must retire in ease they retreat on Mukden. CSvneral Kuropatkin must continue to firmly hold bis center and right flank in order to prevent the Jap anese getting; posnrttsion of the Hun river bridges. Thus he will cowr the withdrawal of hi apparently beaten west wing. There Is still considerable uncertainty as to the disposition of .this left column. Certainly it has not re torned to Mukden whether it is again advancing after its withdrawal is not known It Is no longer a question of a Russian Bedan, although all hope of re lieving Port Arthur must be apparently abandoned. There is little hope express ed that Kuropatkin will be able to con tinue his advance. Four days' fight of the eastern columns wenj of the same dsert character that marked; the operations of the eentee and jight wing. A heavy Russian eoloron under such leaders as lvanoft Rennenkampf, rsrngross and Kondratovitch repeated Iv assaulted the strongly entrenehel Japsnnie tsition on the heights com msnding the passes..

Finally, on October 13, when the pas had been actually occupied, came the order to withdraw, probably owine to critical position at other part of the front. Here the story of operations of the eastern wing of the westera army ends. Vice Admiral Rojeatvensky has been appointed adjutant to the Kmpcror. General Grippeoberg has arrived in Ht.

The Russian forces at 1 o'clock this afternoon penetrated the Japanese center, and it is reported they captured, eleven or twelve gnns and 150 prisoners east of the railway. At another point daring the day Silur ian regiments took twenty-four guns. Russian operations today have been quite successful. The Japanese, after a terrmcalhr stubborn resistance, were compelled to retire along their whole line. Trenehes are filled with Japanese dead. In one treneh were counted 600 corpses of, Japanese. In spite of losses the Japanese are undaunted. They have brought up siege guns and have left no stone unturned to maintain the mastery of the situation. Every step the Rus sians have pushed forward today has been in face of resistance that has cost the Russian dear. The Japanexe are willing to fight until annihilated. To morrow will be the tenth day of the battle, Rossi Boys Cruisers. LONDON, Oct. 17. A Telegraph's Ht.

DRY BY HOT AIR GENTLEMAN- HAS BEEN EXPERI MENTING WITH NEW PROCESS I IN HOP KILNS. Seems to Think lie Will Be Able to Re duce Expense of Present System Ma terially and Will Also be Able to Pro dace Hop With Greater Value. J. IT. Gallagher, a mining engineer from Hooghton, Michigan, is in the'eity for a short visit. He is also interested in lion raising in Yamhill county, and recently. 'sold his erop to Salem buyers for 3 cents per pound. Mr. Gallagher has btson conducting experiments in drying hops, in which the experiment station of the Oregon Agricultural Col lego was interested,- and achieved re markable succesH with a forced draft in the hop t kiln. Bv means of a fan be neath the floor hot ' air was foreed throuirh the drying hops, and the work accomplished in one half the time, thus doubling the capacity of the kiln. The experiment is pronounced successful And if further trials terminate as hap pily, the item of cost in building dry houses will be greatly decreased. By this process the qualitv of the dried product is greatly improved, and this is the main triumph of the exper iment. By the old process, a temper ature of ISO degrees is required, and this extreme heat evaporates the vola tile oils in the germs and that most precious element, that which gives it that delicate aroma so greatlr to le desired, is destroyed, bein driven oft" in volatile1 gasses. "By the new process a temperature of only 120 degrees is used and the delicate aroma, and " choice strength of the hop is preserved. It is oossilde that, this method will revo lutionize the business of drying hops, greatly to the benefit of the Oregon hop grower,' who will then be able to.com rete with German hops, such as are now imported Into this country for making choice brands of !eer, and command double the price of the domestic article.

A great shower of sparks filled the air, falling gently to the earth, appearing like millions of fire opals raumg- xrom ,i- nB.imw the night. i . -. ' " . The heat became t so intenwe that woa the si le of the -wooden ware house building were -flaming, and mt the top asd ides of the msnsard M wbich covered it. The water streams from the engine were j not irhcientiy strong to reach this part of the build tug wilh reciion and all ; saw. ia ' ! of Milling brief time that this building was doom ed to follow its brick mate, which hal but just uerumbei to the consuming fire. Tbe fire fiend worked down ward in this building, getting tbe l est start on the south side next the brick, and it was thia fact, that the franui warehouse burned more slowly on the north side than on tbe other, tlmt ma 1 it possible to aave the old "A"' mill which stands on the creek bank. The warehouse burned down to tbe flax on the first and second floors,, and then the underpinning or rather the under timbers u fthe heavy walls began to burn out from Aeaeath the upper part of the structure aud soon it seemed that a great portion of the wall was sus pended on nothing in tbe air. - When tbe walls finally fill tbe crash was deafening, and was said to have beon beard for four or five miles into the country. ' Tbe ,eolumn of flame that shot up immediately afterward seemed to touch the , very heavens and its burning heat drove every one to seek for shelter from its severity. Up to the time that the walls of the warehouse fell it Jeemed inevitable that the old 'A" mill would also be de stroyed by the madding clement, but after the fall of the walls of the ware house and tbe subsidence of the terrible boat that had boon threatening the old mill, every one felt like giving three good cheers for the fire lys who had worked no hard in tbe face of such terriblw odds. ; For everybody said that under the circumstances and with Mills, Property of Salem end Portland Flouring Mills Co. (Two Bnildings on the Left Were Destroyed. tbe facilities at bandf they bad iwr formed exetdlc"nt work, and were Ui be commended . They had devoted all their energies to saving the old mill aftfr tbey saw that by no Mmsible chanre could they nave the warehouse, and thero was a feehnij of eeneral Satisfaction that they had been success ful in this undertaking. At about midnight the fire was well under control, . far as there being any danger that the buildings would set fire to any other adjoining and after 11 o'clock the spectators began return ing to their homes. There was a time when it seemed that all the resiliences in tbe immediate neigh borh,od of tbe property destroyed would also g from the effect of the great bent, but an ab solute lack of wind undoubtdly ! saved tb entire ntdirhborbood. This was one of th queer things in connection with this fire. Usually a great fire like the one of tundy night seems to develop a wind utorin, but there was pcaee among the elements under the charge of Old lioreas and very little of a kindling nature ws carried any dis tance. Then again the rains of the morning and night in-fore bad left thing well soaked and there was little so dry as to be inflammable. For this fortune was certainly with tbe resi dents o fthe North Knd. ' The sight was ine of the most mag nificent of any one could imagine. Tbe heavens whirh were faintly clouded in the evening took on a lurid light that was seen for a great distance. Yet tb greatest scenic effect was on the river, where tb reflections were most wonderful. The buildings were occupied by Mr. Eugene Bosse, who. ha been en leavor ing for the past five years to develop and promote the flax industry in Or egon, and who has been working with all his energy for tbe establishment of a woohoi mill here ia Halern. He was us ing tbe three buildings there for warehouse purposes, storing bis flax therein, while awaiting the day which be optimistically exacted to arrive soon, wbea Salem should be tbe center of a. great Caen manufacturing indus try, vieing with Ireland and Belgium in tha fineness of its product. ' Here he bai found tbe product in its raw atate, and had found that its-growth was sot only possible, but that it did better here and that the character of the pro- jdoet of thia valley was better than even in Belgium, whence he came, or even the land of the emerald. He had a; part of tbe work of foor years stored ia the two baildincs that were -Jentroyed and bis Itmm will exceed 1 ,tno. 1 What be considers a greater m tba-n the flax, vet of less money value at the present, time, was about 1,200 bushels , of im ported flax see! leadjr for te fall and Property spring vowing' which would have meant a great, return for the coming year. This seed is worth about $3 a bushel at present, and llr. IWie is doubtful if he can get it at that price at all ia time to sow any. this fall. Mr. Dosse bad no insurance at all on his flax in tbe buildings that were destroyed, .end thtrefore tbe loss to him is total, lie had carried a policy of $.1,000 on the flax in the brick mill building, but this policy expired on August 3d, and owing to bis sickness, which has almost pre vented his attending to any business for tb past two months, be failed to renew the policy. The buildings weredthe property of the Portland Flouring Mills Associa tion, the company of which the Salem (louring Mills form a part, unler the management oi Mr T. li. nilwx,r I Portland, and are said to have been on ly partly insured. Tlu extra amount that ia carried on them is unknown here, as this is carried in Portland, by Mr. Wilcox. . , These bnildings were erected In by the eompanv kown as tho Salem, Or egon, t'apitar Flouring Mills Company, limited. ' This company L was or ganized by Mr. 'William Kid, . or Scotch Jleid of IXundee", as he was generally known, and carried among- its stockholders the famous Earl of Airlie, the Stewarts, of HcotlanJ, and ' many others of the backers of William Keid in his palmy days, when he built the narrow gauge nvstera of railroads throughout the Willamette valley. The company was formed to clj a general flour milling business in opiositim to the Salem; Flouring Mills of this city, and the capacity of tbe mill was six hundred Imrrels a day. Alexander Grant was tbe first manager, and the mill run to as full a capacity as posiuble for the first year or twoj but falling prices, trouble with tbe power, an.l fin ally financial difficulties as the general result, caused a failure of the proposi tion, and the property fell under tbe hammer into tbe bands of tbe Salem and Portland flouring mills people, who have belJ it ever since, much to their disappointment, for tbe property has been: idle ever since they .bought it. The property was an exjensive one and originally cost, including the old mill that remains standing, aud the water power, etc., 191,000. Tbe com pany aold power from tbe race to the amount of $10,000.' In their Inventory t bey, valued the old mill, that i" the A" nihil that remains standing, at 45,000, leaving tbe other building, the machinery and the water rights at 136,000. The machinery that was placed in tbe new brick mill was of the best and latest roller process at that time, and this wim taken out later and part of U plaeed in the Kaleni flooring mill here and part of it taken to Al bina The only thing left in tbe mill thai was horned waaf the line shafting and the pulleys. ,. f'.-; The Taet that the company owning ibis property is aatd to have offered tbe projerty for sale at a very cheap figure shows that their evident- intent at tbe time of tbe purr base was to closedown tbe flouring millps and thus d-i away with opjwjsition ia this city in this liner.

The greatest admiration is expressed by the London newspapers today for the tenacity dis played by Kuropatkin in protecting Us retreat, but nowhere is tbe idea enter tained that the Russians first Success on the Bhakhe can change tbe broad character of their defeat or have any effect beyond retarding the Japanse advance to Mukden and probaMy liar bin, ince the Japanese appear to be fully prepared for a winter campaign. The question of intervention is barJIy discussed beeanse it is believed tbe Rus sian Government is in no mood to mc eept. Tbe Standard's corresjondent with Knroki telegraihlng, says. "Ku rokl, as uual, bore the brunt of the struggle and sustained the majority of the casualties. We are now occupying the line of fthakhe, with outposts ne.ir Mukden. ; The Russians lost the initiat ive the seeo-nd dav of the battle when tbe Japanes- repelled their infantry and assumed a vigorous offensive. For a time the situation at Itensihu was ex tremely critical, the Japanese being practically surrounded. Eventually the Russians fled." CASSINI SATS WAS MUST GO ON. 'WASHINGTON. Oct. 17. Count Cas sini, tho Kusian Ambassador, tonight reiterated with great emphaaiii, what be has already had occasion to say sev eral" times regarding intervention b the power to eonclude the war.
