1 General ICuroki'i Headquarters in
the Field, March 7s via Fusan—De
layed In Transmlssion.^-The last day
of the Japanese attacks finds the bat
tle progressing favorably.
Its long duration Was expected, and
It will probably continue several days
more before it is concluded. The Jap
anese forces have nearly reached Muk
den, within 2 miles of the railway, and
is bombarding strongly.
The Russians everywhere are mak
ing desperate resistance, frequently
trying offensive operations and arrang
ing every defensive device known to
modern warfare. The fighting resem
bles a siege more than a battle. The
past two nights there has been hard
fighting in front and east of Witosan.
The infantry were closely engaged,
while the Russian batteries shelled the
trenches and star shells were used to
illuminate the battlefield. Hand gren
ades are used frequently at close
range.
Japanese Pursuing Enemy.
Tokio, March 8—4 p. m.—The follow
ing dispatch has just been received
from the headquarters of the Japa
nese armies in Manchuria:
"Our force, which has been engag
ing a superior force of the enemy in
the neighborhood of Machuntian
(southeast of Mukden) dislodged the
enemy from his position at 8 o’clock
this morning and is now pursuing him
northward.
‘ a Onliumy
private or press dis *'
of today’s battle have yet arrived here
and the mere fact that the curtain i:
run down, taking a leaf out of past
experiences, is pessimistically inter
preted. There are ugly rumors circu
lated in the streets that the day is lost
and that the Russian army is in full
and disorderly retreat with only the
gallant re*r guard fighting off the vic
torious Japanese.
" police Escort to Church.
Charlotte. N. 0., jVIarch 9.—The
youfig wo?nen of the Presbyterian col
lege were escorted from* the First

the police on acount of the aniioykhce
caused by a certain set of young men
of tl)e city who have persisted in forc
ing their attentions on the college
girls. The molestations of the young
men have became such a nuisance
that the college authorities finally ap
pealed to the police to protect them
from the town flirts.
