ALL QUIET AT THE FRONT St. Petersburg Receives Long Delayed Report of Liao-Yang Battie—Sit uation at Port Arthur Re counted by Stoessel. Field Marshal Oyama reported .0 Tokio Wednesday that a considerable Russian force remmins south of the Hun river, while General Kuropatkin telegrapred to St. Petersburg that the bulk of the Japanese force is still south of the Yentai pranch. (:)ya.mu. says that the Russians are fortifying the heights on both sides of the Liao Yang river at Tie Pass. Be yond this the day’s Associated Press dispatehes from the seat of war relate to detamils of previous fighting, and no light ts thrswn on the all-absorbing question of where the next engags3- ment will occur. Report of K uropatkin. General Kuropatkin’s officiz] report, which was given out at St. Petersburg Wednesday night, came 2s & consid erable relief, as setting at rest alarm ist stories of losz of guns, the cutting off of divisions and the death or cap ture of prominent commanders which had been freely circulated in the city. The report, which is a very long one, enters at considerable detail into the verious phases of the battle of Liao- Yang, and entirely bears out the de claration of the Associated Press at the time that General Orloff's failure to hold the vital position at the Yen tai mines was responsible for the breaking down of the whole of Gen eral Kuropatkin’s plan of battie aad turnei 2 potential victory into de feat. The manner in which the re treat was carried out in the face of the terrible condition of the country and the determined pressure of the Japanecse armies does much to restore General Kuropatkin's prestige in mill tary circles. The report as given out does not state the casualties, but the Associat ed Press is authoritatively informed that they were under 17,000, The war ofiice is extremely reticenat regarding the presnt situation and future plans at the front. situation at Port Arthur. The following dispatch from Goner al Stoessel, commander of the Russian military forces at Port Arthur, dated August 28, was received in St. Pelers burg Wednesday: “] am happy to repart to your maj esty that at 8 o'clock in the morning of August 27, during a viblent rain and thunder storm, the Japanese again at tempted' to capture our left flank posi tions, near No. 1 fort and Udan moun- ed. The wounded were brought in and are being earefully attended. A number of Japanese corpses would have been picked up by us, but the enemy prevented us from so doing by opening fire on those attendants who had been sent out under the Red Cross flag.” Another dlspatch from General Stoessel to the emperor, dated Sep tember 2, says: “On the night of September 1 the enemy =nttacked Visokaya and Dlin naya mountaing and the neighboring fortifications, opening simultansously an artillery fire on the forts and mountains. The leading file of the enemy, with the Japanese columng fol lowing them, were discovered in good time and our batteries opened on them. The leading files fortunately encountered some automatic mines and many of the ememy were blown in the air. The attack was repulsed in an hour. Our losses were inconsider able, 1 officer and 7 men wounded. IENA NOW TIED UP. Russian Transport Safely Ensconced in Mare Island Navy Yard. The Russian auxiliary cruiser Lena s now at the government naval sta tion at Mare Island, having departed from San Francisco bay Friday after noon under the escort of the criiser Marblehead. The Lena is now under the local jurisdiction of Rear Admiral McCalla of the navy yard. The en tire crew of the Lena is aboard the Russian vessel and will doubtless be detained at Mare Island pending of ficial decision as to their disposition. TRIED TO EXTERMINATE FAMILY.

Wal lace, of the Panama canal commission, accompanied by seven assistant engin eers, recently appointed by him, left New Orleans Friday on the Unitel Fruit Company’s steamer Ellis, for Colon, in connection with the canal work in progress on the isthmus.

Democratic Nomince Goes to New york for Special Conference. } A New York dispatch says: The yacht Sapphire on which Judge Alton B. Parker left Esopus Wednesday night arrived Thursday morning and anchored off Thirty-fifth street. Judge Parker remained on hoard until after breakfast. : Later, accompanied by John B. Mc- Dionald and Judge Parker’s secretary, Arthur McCausland, the party entered a carriage which was driven to the Hotel Astor, the new hotel at Broad way and Forty-fourth street. During the day Judge Parker con ferred with more than a score of prominent party leaders, who called on him at hig apartments at the ho tel. Important matters relating to the campaign which may reorganize the methods now in operation, the letters of acceptance of the candidates for president and vice president, and the discussion of g slate for New Yord were included in the business under consideration. By special appointment with the ho tel management, all guests who by appoiniment called to see Judge Par ker were ushered in through a pri vate entrance, and no persons withoug the proper credentials bearing the en dorsement of Parker’s private secreta ry were permitted on the fifth floor, where the candidate’s apartments were situated. : , Among these who are known to have cglled on Judge Parker are Hen ry G. Davis, Senator Gorman, Colonel Lamont, George Foster Peabody, W. F. Sheehan, Daniel MeConville, chair man of the speakers’ bureau; Repre sentatives John Sharp Williams, of Mississippi; August Belmont, Perry Belmont and State Senator McCarren, of Brooklyn. Senator Gorman remained with Judge Parker for three hours, and this is taken as an indication that the sen ator has bheeome active in the cam paign at least in an advisory capacity. John Sharp Williams discussed cam paign oratory with Judge Parker. He has been assigned already for speeches at Louisville and Detroit, and it was decided that he will be neard in New York. Thig is at the earnest request of Judge Parker. It was announced Thursday night that Judge Parker’s letier of accept ance will be published September 3%5. Senator Davis’ letter will come a wee%k later. Mr. Parker left for BEsopus Friday evening. HIGGINS NAMED FOR GOVERNOR. New York Republicans in Convention Nominate Full State Ticket.

On to Mukden is Now Cry of Victo ricus Troops of the Mikado, . After Temporary Rest. { e % ‘General Kuropatkin telegraphs St. Petersburg, under date of September 16 (¥riday), that the reconnoisances nas established the fact that the Jap anese are mzssing near Yentain and Bentziapulze. Bodies of Japanese are also moving in the Liao River valley. The Associated Press digpatch from Mukden snnouncing that according Lo I information from Chinese gources, the Tapanecse are ieaving a garrison at loa-Yang and their main forces are moving out on the Russian flanks, is partially comnfirmed by the dispatch froin General Kuropatkin reporting that the Japanese are massing on the Russian flanks, that a jarge force is concentrating at Bentzaputze, 20 miles doutheast of Mukden, and that another force, whoze strength has not been es tablished, is moving up the Liao river valley. The greater part of Field Marshal «Oyama’s army, howéver, is still near Ventai, encamped along the heights betweon the mines and the railroad. While the war office does not anticl, | pate immediate advance, the prelimi- Ixmry dispositions of the Japanesa forces are taken to indicate that the Japanese intend, when they advance, to strike from the eastward. Thkey seem to be avoiding the territory west of the Liao river, possibly because it ig flat and would give the Russians the advantage of their superiority in cavalry. Chinese residents fieeing to Mukden complain that the Japanese are pillaging Liao-Yang. Statements that the Japapese army kis concentrating upon the flanks of ' the Russian forces in the vicinity of Mukden are met at the Russian war ! office with expressions of incredulity. | It is the opinion at St. Petersburg that a much longer time must elapse before Oyama can put his army whiclt was so sorely tried in the battle of Loao-Yang, in condition to undertake a forward movement. o A special from Mukden says: Eare ! ly Friday morning 2,600 wounded menf | helonging to Major General Mitschen= sky's Cossack division were bmm into Mukden. Particulars of tha skirmish are not available. It is not clear whether it was a simply outpost affair or the beginning of the real | Japanese advance on Mukden.
