The Russians Won. St. Petersburg, July S.~A despatch to the Vedimoesti, from Taschekiao, reports a fierce fight om July 5th, in which the Russians, under Gen. Sam sonoff, drove the Japanese from before Kaiping in the direction of Senyu- chen, the Cossacks causing havoc among the encmy. Reinforcements for the Japanese approaching the Russians were obliged to withdraw. The cor- respondent says that Gen. Samsonoff's division is occupying Kaiping, Gen. Tschirikoff's division is stationed south-east of Kaiping, and Gen. Mis- ticheko's Cossacks are cast of Kaiping The Japanese main body i= at Siuyen and before Kaiping. Their attack probably will be made along the Siuven-Tasho line. The report of Admiral Skrydieffi on the raid by the Vladivostok squad- ron, on July Ist, has been received. It confirms the other accounts of the op- erations of the squadron. Vice-Ad- mirai Besosobrazoff, in command, be- lieves that two Japanese torpedo boats were sunk. The report also re- cords the raid at Gensan, when a steamer and a schooner were destroy- ed. The raiding vessels consisted of torpedo boats and n transport. In ad- dition 1o the steamer and schooner they destroyed several barges and re- pulsed the Japanese soldiers who fired at them without result. The Japanese barracks were ignited by grenades, Underdate of July 5th Gen. Kouro- patkin reports a series of skirmishes' between patrols south-east of Senuy- chen towards Wafangkau, 'and at ses eral untraceable points apparently in the same neighborhood. None of the engagements were important. A very wordy despatch has ben received from Gen. Rakharofi, duplicating Gen. Kou ropatkin's and covering verious other reconnaisances, the length of the re: port being in inverse proportion to its importance. It records a repulse of the Japanese, near Tkhavuan, on the night of July 4th, with losses, as re- ported by natives, of 700. This i« ap- parently one of the fights already re- ported. Gen. Sakharofil mentions a number of untraceable places where there are Japanese outposts, including some sixty kilmnetres south-east of Mkden. Cholera Is Spreading.

The ovation given to Mr. Bryan was pronounced.
