Mukden cable: A bitter fight is still going on. The line of contact between the armies does not alter materially.

(lure such losses in men and ammuni. tion, which have already exceeded the total of the. whole war hitherto.

Papers. _ artillerv concentrated at 5 in the morn- The Emperor has received a telegram from Gen. Koumpatkin, reportin that the Russians are moving forming. The reverse sustained by Gen. Yamada’s column has not yet been reported by Gen. Kouropatkin to Gen. Sakharoft, ex- cept in a. reference to an unsuccessful Japanese attack near Shakhe. The Mukden despatch evidently refers to this affair in reporting that the Jap- anese had been beaten off with terrible slaughter and its retreat cut off by the Russian army. Another despatch from Mukden con- firms the news of the Russian advance when, telegraphing late to-night, the correspondent says: "It is rumored that we are moving ahead." There is nd"otrieint continuation here of the report from Toklo that a Rus- sian attack on the Japanese right on Oct. 17 had been repulsed. If this re- port should prove true, it may involve serious consequences for the Russians who crossed the Shn while the river was fordnble. According to the Mukdon despatch, the water has since risen man-high, in consequence of heavy rains, and, there- fore, it will be nigh impossible for the Russian army to reemss the river. ow- ing to the absence of bridges. It would be equally difficult for the same rea- son to bring up supplies and ammunition to enable Gen. Knuropatkin to follow up the advance. This may explain that the fighting was slackening on the morning of Oct. 18. the main along the Sha River, from the railway to Tashan, where the moun- tains begin. The bitterness and tenac- ity of the fighting on this line seems to be intimately connected with the posi- tion ot the eastern army, regarding which little news is obtainable. After threatening an assault all day the Ja. panese last night at 11 o'eloek rushed the village of Linshinpu, on the north bank of the Sim River. west of the rail- way, rowing a thunderous cannon and rifle we on the Russian positions. The bombardment lasted until midnight. The rifle fire only ceased at dawn. The Japanese now occupy a raised pa. gods in a quadrangle, near Linshinpu, which is the only eminence for miles. It affords an unusually advantageous point of view for directing their artil- lery fire against the Russian right. At. tempts to dislodge the Japanese from this position have thug far failed. The Japanese are already in posses- sion of small hills on the plain. They attempted last nigtst to rush the Rus- sian centre along the foothills border- ing the Sha aiver, but were unsuccessful. Losses Were Never Less Than 2,000 Per Day. A Mnkdeu cable: The fighting of Oct. 17 was eonfined to the Russian centre at Shakhe River, and was mostly artillery fire, the Japanese using big guns and high explosive shells. During the nine days of continuous fighting the losses were never less than 2,000 per day. The hospitals are hardly able to handle the wounded. Nevertheless, they have performed wonders. Th Chinese have deserted all the villages and the troops are using the woodwork of their houses for fuel. This country south is desolated. The int. anese still seem to be exerting them. selves to force the Russians out of Mukden. A battle is assured from the positions surrounding the town. . -- . ---- «A ....... vnvithnt Corréspondents at the front the last forty-eight hours had been hinting that the, Russian army was on the eve of another advance, but it was thought here that the troops were too exhaust- ed by more than a week of Titanic struggle to engage in an immediate ad. vance movement.

A Mukden cable: Lone Tree Hill, won b'y the Russians after a desperate struggle, was the scene of a gallant but unsuccessful attempt to recapture by the Japanese . In spite of the awful slaughter with which they had been driven from the hill, the Japanesere turned to the charge during the night of Oct. 17, recognizing that the hill was the key to the position on the southwest front. Nine regiments par- ticipated, creeping up through the night and delivering a. furious assault at dawn. But the hill had been bought too dearly by the Russians to relinquish it, and the Japanese were driven back with terrible slaughter. "Gem Kouropatkin ordered the hill to he retaken, and the whole Russian artillery concentrated at 5 in the morn- ing, and showered the hill with pro- jectiles, the awful spectacle lasting the entire day. It. seemed that no human being could outlive such an ordeal, yet the defenders remained manfully at their posts . The sun was already de- clining when Kouropatkin gave the order to storm. Six regiments advanced, fording the river in the face of a mur- derous fire. The enemy determined to make us pay dearly for it. He poured a hail of gun and rifle fire on our ad’ vancing column, but nothing could stop them. They reached the other side, clambered up, and at 11 o'clock at night the position was in our hands. I have just visited the scene of our triumph. The trenches are filled with dead Japanese and Russians clutched in a death embrace. I saw no such ghastly sight at Shipka or at Plevna. The credit for the achievement be. longs chiefly to the Mth and 19th Rifles. Four other regiments partici- pated. The 36th attacked from the east and the 19th from the west, Gen. Poultoff leading the brigade and per- sonally directing the attack, was the first to reach the summit, and was in the thick of the fiercest fighting around the Japanese guns. The Japanese gun- ners died at their post. Kouropatkin personally thanked the heroes for their gallant exploit. The captured guns were brought to Mukden."

On Oct. 12 the Russian lighting line consisted of tour regiments of the East Siberian rifles on the right flank, and the 3rd, 33rd and 34th on the left. The right was supported by two batteries of the 18th and one ot the 9th East Siberian brigades. One battery occupied the cen- tre, and three more wHtlon the left. The battlef1eld of Lone Tree Hill pre- sentb an awful sight. Russian and Jap- nnese dead are mingled in inextricable confusion. The ground is strewn with broken rifles that had been smashed in hand-to-hand fighting. Everything seems to have been utilized as 'rep- ons. The Russian doctors are working heroically on the slopes of the hill, in the attempt to save those of the wound- ed they can. but the Japanese keep up a sniping flre, and render the work of relief difrieult and_dangero_us. __ A_ It is reported that Gen. Mistchenko’s Cossacks, under command of Adjutant Gavrilotr, were engaged in a hot fight on Oct. 17th, towards the southeast. A Cossack horse battery silenced the Jap- anese guns, and drove back several in. fantry battalions, but were unable to capture the guns, which the Japanese succeeded inptayrying off. A The fighting to-day Blackened consid- erably, owing to rain and the impass- able condition of the roads. 'the tight begun Oct. 11 at 5.30 a. m. The batteries on the right flank opened on three Japanese batteries to the right of the pass tiiatehoun Pass is a double page, the main defile being to the left, bvertoppe4 by high rocky mountains, while to the right are rocky ridges. Gen. Gerngross' corps was assigned to cap- ture the passes by frontal attack, and the remamder of the Russian troops were to turn the Japanese position and take them on the flank and rear. _ V FIGHT ON RUSSIAN LEFT. AGAIN ASSAULTED. The Russian batteries finally got the range of the Japanese batteries and silenced them all. After dinner a great many Chinese fugitives came into the Russian lines, reporting that the Japanese were pro- pari$m to evacuate the villages of Tel: dzy and Tehigaw. The Russians then moved forward, and at 5 oUoek in the afternoon occupied the passes as the Japanese withdrew. Then, just as the task had neen accomplished, came the order to retire, which the column accom- plished sudely, but thoroughly exhaust. ed by the long fight. Oct. 13 the comman-l moved forward. The Japanese held with particular ten- acity on the left flank. Coi. Ruskin, who, with seven noun-allies, was hold- ing a position on the right, had his funk turned, bat a regiment was sent to his oppose. ran-l He turned back the Japanese. Towards noon several fresh Japanese batteries appeared on the heights, firing high explosives. The lst Siberian Battery, changing ground, came under the firing and lost 17 men in crossing an open space 200 yards wide.. Most of the Russian guns, how- ever, were in hidden defiles, and suffer- ed little loss, the Japanese shells fall. ing short. One ricochet shot wounded the horse rdden by the writer of this despateh, and also his servant. The Japanese attacked the Russians at 10'o'eloek that night, but were driven back. The Rue-inn- followed up the advantage, and occupied the pun. Meantime the Russians got nearly all the commanding heights, including the cortical hills beside e pass; but there was still one height at the left of the pass which had not been taken, and at dawn the Russians were again forced to retire, as the Japanese batteries com- manded the ground the Russians had so hatxily won. The next day the Russians again ad- vanced, assuming the main pass. Gen. Gerngross remained on the field during all the hot fighting, never leaving his men a moment. _ During the day the fourth corps was forced to draw bat-k, but at night re- occupied its earlier positions. During the night fighting of Thumday, Lieut.. Col. Peccuta died fighting in the Japan- ese trenches. The 34th rcg'ment suffer- ed terribly. TobeTakenWhatcvertheCost in Life. London, Oct. 'A.t.---The Chefoo corres- ponndent of the Daily Telegraph claims to have special information of the posi- tion " Port Arthur, of which the foi. lcwing is the most trustworthy: There has been only one so-called grand as- tuault on the main line of forte, namely, from Aug. 21 to Aug. 24, resulting in tt repulse of the ftrgir; who only cupied two small BU sidiary forts in the vicinity of the eastern defences. On that occasion the commanders were pre' pared to continue the attack until it was successful, but in consequence of orders from Imperial headquarters the conflict ceased. Since then there has been a series of isolated attack on the forts, usually aeeomoanied by demonstrations along the whole line. . . .. .. Na. The concentration of reinforcements continues. t. severe bombardment indi- cates preparations, for an infantry as- sault. Events at Port Arthur are influ- enced by the position in the north, where the Russians report that Gen. Kouropat- kin is holding Shahosu, after capturing fourteen Japanese guns and many pris- oners. With the knowledge that time is against them the Japanese are alive to the urgent necessity for capturing the fortress before winter handicaps the op- erations. Already the weather has be- come keen and the seas rough., The correspondent quotes 3. Japanese tradesmen, who has been attached to the besiegen throughout, and who ar- rived at Chefoo Wednesday, to uying that during the siege more than 50,000 Japanese have been killed. Another cor- respondent says that 50,000 have been killed or wounded. Tile Japanese, believing that the Baltic fleet will attempt to create a diversion, will renew their t,"tgtt endeavors to speedily reduce the ortress. It is real. ized that public feeling in Japan de- mands the capture of Port Arthur, and in the event bf another great attempt no limitation will be placed on the sacri- flee of life. On Oct. 12 one Russian httery silenced some Japanese mountsin guns; and then another Japanese battery opened on the Rmitansi. but a concen- trated fire smothered that battery also. 2rJtutrt: infantry nfwncg, on t become en . e left was heavily 'd'l'll'lur'fgllL Pas was turned by detachments of the 8rd, 88rd end 2nd regiments.

Amalgamation of Longahoremea. New York, Oct. 2T.--The Sun says: The New York representatives of the American Federation of Labor were noti- tied 1i',',t'N, by cable that W. Abra- hams and J. 'ignall, fraternal delegates from the British Trades Union Congress to the next conference of the American Federation of Labor, had sailed for this city. Wignall is the representative of the International Longshoremen’e Union of Great Britain. While he is here pre- liminary arrangements will be made for an Amalgamation of the English and American longehoremen in an interna- tional union with about 150,000 mem- bers. Herman Robinson, general organ- ner of the American Federation of La. 'oor, said last evening: "For some years t: movement has been in progress for the formation of this international union. Within the last year or two many members of the English union have been coming here and joining the American body. We feel that the time has come for the amalgamation and in all probability a mass meeting will be called when Mr. Wignall has been here to discuss the question and take pre- The Standard’s correspondent with Gn. Kuroki says that decisive defeats have seriousy weakened the morale of the Russian troops. It is evident in the latter phases of the fighting that they were increasingly reluctant to stand up against the Japanese infan- try. It will be some time before they can make good their terrible losses. The Japanese losses are small in com- parison. The Japanese failed to cap- ture many prisoners, but the victory was none the less decisive. It will so- cure the numerical superiority of the Japanese army for an indefinite period. The Russians. who tried to outflsnk the Japanese right, and who for days were rumored to have been cut off, es- caped their threatened destruction, but seem to have suffered severely. Field Marshal Oysms. simply reports that they were driven off and retreated. The Standard’s correspondent with Gen. Kuroki declares, however, that the Rus- sians were elmost annihilated. They were crossing the Tsitse river on a pontoon bridge, when they were over- taken by a regiment of Japanese cav- alry, whose machine guns swept the bridge from end to end. This is the first time in the war that machine guns were used, with decisive results.
