iiiii ii UZAB’S ARMYLllST Forty Thousand by Oyama in THE RU SSIAN DIS ASTER. A despatch from 'l‘okio sayszâ€"l Every oflicial report from the front, adds to the magnitude of the. Rus-i siun disaster, and the indications are that the whole. truth of the crushing blow (It-liveer by Field-Marshal Oyaiua to the Russian arms will not be known for some day s, owing to the fact that the casualties are so great and the spoils so large that it is impossible as }ct to get accurate figures.

The official despatchcs state the pursuing detachments started from the right bank of the Hun River reached a line 13 miles north of the river Friday night. On‘1 Saturday the pursuit of the retreat- ing Russians was vigorously contin- ued. A detachment which left tliei iPu River, 13 miles from Mukden, on the ’l‘ieling road, that forenoon had. an engagement with a, large column of the enemy, which was making its Way northward as rapidly as possiâ€" ‘ble. The Japanese charged the Rus- sians. and a, handâ€"toâ€"hand fight oc- curred. Ultimately most of the col- umn was surrounded and captured. Those of the column who succeeded in escaping continued to fight hopeâ€" 'lessly for a while, and finally sur- rendered. ’l‘he whole field was COVOI" ed with Russian dead. The Japanese‘ are now engaged in burying their own dead and those of the enemy. The Japanese casualties reported since Feb. 26 number 41,222. No reâ€" port haa been received from the Jap< that which anese operating in the direction of CHsingâ€"ching. Reliable unofficial reports state that a detachment of the extreme Japanese left has reached Sintun, on the M‘ukden road, 10 miles south of‘ Tieling. A detachment from Fushun has ocwpied Lanoiwe, 10 miles north, having repulsed several flankl attacks by Russian forces from the mountainous district to the north-‘ east, in the direction of the Kaiyuani and ’I‘alin road. i It is reported that only 50,000 ofi‘ the Russians who were defending; Mukden have escaped to Tieling. l The Russians had in battle 376 battalions of infantry, 178 squadâ€" rons of Cavalry, and 171 batteries of artillery. In other words Gen. Kouropatkin's army consisted of} 300,800 infantry, 26,700 cavalry, and 1,368 guns. The total number of the Japanese forces is not stated,‘ but it is vaguely estimated at 700,5 000 men of all arms. ; Reports say that southâ€"west of" Mukden two Russian army corps were wiped out completely, all being k'illed or captured. The battle which drove the Rusâ€" siany from Mukden has been officially named the Battle of Mukden. KOU ROI‘ ATKI N R lCSIG NS. The St. I‘etersburg correspondent of the London Times says that the remnants of Gen. Kouropatkin's armies are gradually reaching Tielâ€" ing. Gen. Kouropatkin in reporting the facts, asks the Czar‘s gracious permission to hand over the coin- mand, alleging his urgent need of physical and mental rest. In a later despatch he confirms the reports of the Commander-in-Chief‘s resignation. The council of war has been summoned to meet, March 11. It. will, in addition to formulating de- signs for the next campaign, probab- ly decide upon Gen. Kouropatkin’s successor The choice lies between the Grand Duke Nicholas Nichoiaie- vitch and Gen. Sukhomlinod. Per- haps the latter will become chief of staff to Grand 'Duke Nicholas. The official dcspatches record the loss of nearly five hundred guns, scores of regimental colt-rs, and over 200,000 men. The. public is ignor- ant of the extent of the losses. It knows nothing of the Commander-inâ€" Chief's resignation, but this knowâ€" ledge would not alter the intensity of the resentment and humiliation which RiISsiaus generally feel. Such details as the censorship allows to appear induce the. tvlankest amaverimnt, as the official Lll‘Sll‘Citl‘lU'S published last Week related nothing but sucrtsses. The story of the vlrfeat and retreat is coming out piecemeal. lt >l‘iUWs‘ that the Russians were misled and outmaimeuvred at exery point. Yet Gen. Kouropntkin seems at one time ,and a pledge that 'the railway has been out north Prisoners Taken One District. Would in a telegram to the (Var, the disaster might have been averted. llis crowning blunder was weakening his line from l-‘ushun to Mukrlen. lle apparently forgot that the, Japanese were able to cross the llun River on the ice. He realized his mistake when he heard of the capture of kmâ€" sai. on March .10. do then immediâ€" ately ordered his aimies to retire. but 'he Japanese swariried from the. east and West and placed their batâ€" over the, fro7en plain bordering the Mandarin Road. The first fugitives reached Tieling within 30 hours. Gen. Stackelberg's and Gen. Zarubaicfl's corps were left to guard the line from Fushun to Mukden. If. is fear- ed that they haVe been captured or annihilated. (lens. 'J‘serpitsky's, Hilâ€" derling's, and Toporin's corps, which (ten. Kouropatkin himself led in a desperate attempt to drive Gen. Nogi back, sustained terrible losses. The correspondent claims to have the best authority for stating that Japan has twice informally apâ€" pi oached Russia in regard to peace negotiations. The proposal failed each time, because the Japanese deâ€" manded the payment of an indemnity Russia would not keep warships the Pacific for twentyâ€"five years. l‘he insistence up- on an indemnity convinces the Govâ€" ernment that Japan's resources are exhausted, and that by continuing the war for a few months Russia. will be able to compel better terms in DETAILS OF GREAT FIGHT. The Tokio correspondent of the London Telegraph says that Gen. Kouropatkin has been driven out of Fushun, and that the Japanese have entered Mukden. It is believed that the Russian central position is sur- rounded and the army there almost annihilated. All the important posi- tions in front of the Japanese left, have been occupied. Gen. Kouropatâ€" kin is making desperate efforts to reach Tieling. The weather is ex- cellent and the ground is hard. In a later despatch the corresponâ€" dent claims to have official authority for the statement that fully 200,000 Russians are enveloped. Information from independent sources in Tokio is that the Japanâ€"i csc extreme right wing is engaged and is driving the Russians hard, at the point of the bayonet. The Rusâ€" sian centre is retreating under a ter- rible fire, and has been practicallyi annihilated. It is announced from Tokio that of Mukden. This leaves the country roads and the light railway between Mukden and Fushun, 20 miles to the northâ€"eastward, the only avenues of: retreat of the Russians. A telegram to Berlin states that the Japanese have occupied Mulxden. A report from Newâ€"L‘hwang, by Way of Tienâ€"Tsin says that Tie l‘ass has been invested by the Japanese, and that (Jen. Kouropatkin, liming no alternative, will probably be forced to surrender within a week. ln the opinion of English military Cl'lthS. Gen. Kouropatkin's fol‘t‘OS‘ are doomed to complete disaster. and the best he can hope for is to save a mere remnant of his army after devoting whole divisions to slaugh- ter. Much importance is attached to Gen. Kamainura's mysterious unâ€" located army, which momentarily is expected to complete the closing of the net around the defeated host by appearing somewhere in the extreme east, around Vingfan, thus blocking‘ the sole remaining route from Ying- fan to Tie Pass through Wankaikon Pass l ...._._. WILL BE CUT OFF. A dcspatch from St. l‘etersburg sayszâ€"The atnioSphere of the War Office is intensely gloomy. The ofli- cials admit that Gen. Kouropatkin has suffered a bloody defeat, but RUSSIANS SURROUNDED. A despatcb to the London Times from St. Petersburg says that oili- cial news of the capture of Mukden appeared late Friday evening. Teleâ€" graphic and railway communication with Mukdcn was finally severed late Thursday. The latest telegram from (-‘en. Kouropatkin was presumably sent by inesSenger to 'l‘icling, and reached 'l‘sarskocLSelo Friday. It said laconicnlly, “I am surrounded." lt is bclicwed the message was flesv patched early Friday morning. It inspires the worst fears in view of the previous news of the approach of an eastern flanking force_ .‘lll'lx'lllCN. from 'l‘okio says:â€" Tokio officially announces the capâ€" ture of l’ushun and the occupation of Mukden by the Japanese in the following bulletins:â€" "0ur detachments occupied on the night of March S), and now are attacking the enemy, who is posted at the angle of the heights north of li‘ushun. "Our troops occupied Mukden 1O a.m. Friday. Our enveloping moveâ€" ments since some da,\s proved sucâ€" cessful. and the bloodiest battle is now proceeding in varies places near Mukden." ' The Tokio correspondent of the London Standard says that the de- velopment of the Battle of Miikdeii. OCCUPATION ()F A despn tch li‘ushun which resulted in the occupation of the city, surpasses the, most sanâ€" guine anticipation. The Russians have been outgeneraled at every point. Several corps south and east of Mukden are completely surrounded by the Japanese, whose centre, by a bold (lash, pushed straight to the hills midway between Miikdcn and Fushun. The Russians everywhere are burning their stores. Their lossâ€" es, including prisoners, will probably exceed 200,000 According to the Tokio corresponâ€" dent of the Daily Telegraph the Japâ€" anese are now within 15 miles of Tieling. He says that the Russian disaster was partly due to the in- efficiency of the intelligence depart- ment, which was not aware of the Japanese marCh to Sinmintin until it was too late to make a counter move. The Japanese cavalry worked splendidly throughout the battle. They made a. series of forced marchâ€" es, capturing supplies and tearing up the railway. The heights northeast of Mukden were captured Tuesday. The Japanese now bar the roads from Fushun to 'l‘ieling. It is rum- ored, apparently without foundation, that Gen. Kouropatkin is a prisoner. A news agency despatch from St. Petersburg states that news from a. military source has been received saying that Gen. K'ouropatkin will transfer his headquarters to Harbin. His last despatch was filed at Tiel- ing, where he does not intend to stay long. OYAMA R SPORTS. A despatch from ’l'okio says: Field Marshal ()yama telen‘raphs as follows under Friday's (law'â€" “We occnpicd Mukden at 10 o'clock this morning. “(lur surrounding movement, in which we have been engaged for some day's past, has now completely Succeeded. “The fiercest fightingr continues at several places in the vicinity of Mukden "We captured a great number of pieces, enormous quantities of arms, ammunition. provismizs. and other war supplies. There is at present no time to investigate the number of these." U’I‘TERLY lll‘IMtlllALI/dfll}. A desi-atch from Ntwv-(‘hwang says: The Russians, since they were driven out of Mukden and Fushun and cut off from the railroad, have been reâ€" treating in a deiiioraliyed condition to the hills to the ninthâ€"east. They are moving in detached bodies, sonicL times roughly and hastily entrenchâ€" ing to Check pursuit. It will be im- possible for the Russians to xesist for many days in the wild country cast of the railway, because they Will be unable to obtain provisions. They will possibly try to reach Kirâ€" in through the valleys, but a special Japanese corps; from the Yalu threat- ens to intercept them. Gen, Ix'uroki is n0w moving: to tbe nort’hWest, pushing the retreating Russians against Gen. Nogi's army. DESPISE DEATH. [’etersburg A despatch from St. ,7 says: The correspondent of the Russ they insist that it is not a decisive disaster. Despatches of Kouropatkin: and Sakharofl‘ reporting fighting on the “north front" seem to refer to‘ Japanese attempts to break througlii the lilissian line. screening the comâ€"l municaffons with Tie Pass, but the} public regards it as an acknowledg- ment that Gen. Nogi already has severed the Russian line of commun~‘ ications and enclosed at least a porâ€"‘ tion of Gen. Rilderling's army. which1 was bringing up the rear. . It is Said here that (ion.

A despatch from Chatham says:â€" Satirday evening between 9 and 10 o'clock a very daring escape was made from jail here when Dan Forsythe, who, with Charles Benja- min, was arrested the other day and pleaded guilty on several charges of grain stealing and burglary, in the neighborhood of Ridgetown, broke away. li‘orsythe was confined in a Cell, and kept calling for a drink of water. Turnkey Somerville Came to give it to him and as he opened the door of the cell Forsytho attacked him, and, after a sharp struggle, succeeded in locking him in the cell. He then went to the cell where Benjamin was Confined, and asked him if he would run for if. and, on the latter refusing, struck him over the head with a bunch 05 keys taken from the turnkey. Forsy’the then left the room where the cells were, and, passing the guards' room, went up the stairway and out over the porch, slid down one of the pillars, and disappeared. Nothing has been seen of him since. Benjamin released the turnkey, who gave the alarm and the police were shortly on the escaped man's trail. Dr. Charteris, the jail surgeon, 'dis- covered that Somerville’s injuries in- cluded a broken rib, cut head and front teeth knocked out in the. strugâ€" gle with Forsythe. .+___. LIFE SENTENCE AND LASIâ€"I. Severe Penalty Passed Upon Jos~ eph Kennedy. A despatch from Brantford says:- Life imprisonment in Kingston Pen- itentiary, with 75 lashes, was the extreme penalty passed on Joseph Kennedy by Mr. Justice Teetvel on Wednesday night. The jury, after a half-hours consideration, found Ken- nedy guilty of the charge preferred against him, that of a serious crime upon Irene Cole, a. girl 5) years old, who was outraged and murdered in “the Willows," in this city, in Sep tember ‘of 1903. Thus ends a Case with a history. KENNEDY llANCS lllMSfCLF. Joseph Kennedy, who was on Wed- ntsday night sentench to life im- prisonment with 7.3 lashes, in (onâ€" nection with the death of lrciie Cole, hanged himself in his cell at the County jail shortly before, eight o‘clock on Thursday morning. The only other occupant of the jail cor- ridor was Felix Doyle. charged with the murder of his mother. At 7.20 on Thursday morning the guard left the room while the prisoners were eating their breakfast. After the meal. Doyle went into a room at the end of the corridor. and, returning in a few minutes. found Kennedy hanging by a led sheet from the- top of the cell door. lloile raised the. alarm. but it was too late, as death had already resulted from strangula- tion. WAS WELL PLANNED. It is apparent that Kennedy had the whole thing deliberately planned. He acted with swiftness and success during the only opportunity that. presfnfe: itself.
