In addition to the cap- tur of Russian gufi®'on Sunday, there gre unofficial accounts of other ecap- tures on Monday, bringing the total number of pieces taken from the Jap anese up to thirty:feur. The Russians are reported to have broken the Ja- panese centre, and to be gaining ground everywhere, they having sue ceeded in enticing the enemy into the plain, where Gen. Kuropatkin threat ers their flank. This is the first name day of the infant czarewitch, and the coincidence therewith, the most impor tant success the Russians have achiev- ed in the campaign, is hailed by the elated press with opfimism. There are however no public rejoicings, although the day is observed as a general holi- day in honor of the czarewitch, Inconclusive Victory. Tokio, Oct. 19.--Although the news- papers regard the victory of the Jap anese in the battle of the Shakhe river as complete, the military authorities, here, recognize that the engagement has been - inconclusive, and they are uncertain whether the.
