What will liItaly prove the
greatest battle of the campaign
la Manchuria, baa bean fought,
tad the soldiers of both -Cmr
tad Mikado are now resting
bom the groat fatigue which
their aboostanproeadented flght
log ocrastoned. The result woe
an OTenrbaiminir victory to the
Jape, but ft makes one shudder
to cubay contemplate the awful
cant of the capture of IJoo Yang.
Tbe carnalities are now placed at
a total of about 60,000, and the
Inot that thp boepital corps and
the Bed Croas with the Russian
forces were entirely overwhelmed
by the work laid oat for them by
the Japanese bullets shows the
magnitude of the slaughter. The
fact that 25,000 Russians who
bad been cat oB from tbs wain
body and were la dinger of an*
nihUatiou or capture at the
hand# of the Japanese made
their escape, and the failure of
the Jape to overhaul Kuroput
kin before be reached Mud ken, le
not anrprWng and detracts
nothing from the sweeping
trinsipb of the Japanese army.
Asthu situatlou now nrosents
Itinlf, the Russian forces have
hanlted in the vicinity ol Mud*
kmi. about T5 miles north of
Uao Yang, with the Japanese
not far nway, but, there seems
no immediate danger of another
general engagement, and in
last, late dispatches indicate
that the present campaign may
be considered practically ended,
and the armies are likely to es
tablish winter quarters and
merely strengthen themselves
for the eeoond year's warfare. It
may be that the Russians will
remain at Mudksn, but it has
bent indicated ia recent dis
patches that Harbin would be
made headquarters. The latter
place is some 800 uUee north ol
Mudken aad should. Kuropatk in
withdraw thither, Russian evno
entkxi of the entire southern
portion of Manchuria would he
complete. But whatever the de
cision of the Russians on this
point, the recent operations have
emphasised the steady victory
of the Japanese, and mode Ka
ro parkin’* ullged strategical
movements appear in the light
-of retreats that became in some
inetaooea almost panic*.
Dispatches . from Rt. Prteo
burg tell of the calling to urine
of reserves, which will doubtless
be dispatched to the front as
•ooo aa possible to MU up tbe
breaches ia the ranks caused by
the rsoeot fighting. The Japa
nese art probably also moving
to the front with the same end in
view, although it is seldom that
anything of their movements is
givsa out at Tukio, the first Tn
fonaaiiou often coming only af
ter the men have appeared In the
field
The lost news from Fort Ar
thur indicated that' no heavy
fighting hod taken place recently
although It was expected that a
general uasaolt upon thefortrese
woo Id he made soon. In view of
the tact that the Bosnian Baltic
fleet soiled from Oonetndt yes
terduy, with the avowed inten
tion of going to tbe far East, It
would he especially good fortune
for the Japanese if they co aid at.
cure this stronghold before win
ter sets ia. It is. however, a big
undertaking, aad uutees tbe food

alcag time yet before the (Mika
