Newchwang, May 18.-Th‘e Russians were totally surprised Monday morn- ing by the announcement. that. nine transports, conveyed by a squadron of Japanese ships, had suddenly ap- peared off Kaichau_ twenty miles south of Yinkaw. and that 20,000 Japanese troops had already been landed. The disembarkation Was com- pleted Tuesday, and the Japanese force is expected here to-day, Russians Will Stand at Baleheng. This information accelerated the Russian evacuation. which was car- ried out in perfect order, and early Monday morning the gunboat Sivo- utch was destroyed. The Associated Press correspondent. professes to have received from the highest Russian authority information that the Rus- sian forces will make a stand at Haichcng, and if defeated there will fall back on Liaoyang, where a de- termined resistance will be offered. Should they be again worsted. no stop will be made at Mukden, which the Japanese will be permitted to occupy.
