Th; ofliclal advices from the fr nt
report that all is quiet along the
whole line of the oppos'ng forcei. A
light Jap'iness m vem n has been
observed at Fongl-tipu, abiut sixteen
miles fcoutheiist of Mukden, but. three
has b 'en nn collision. Tne war ofllce
appirmlly does not anticipate right
ing ma large scale in the imme
diate future. Tbe principal cause
nf alartu at. the war nflice Is occasioned
by the lack of deSnlte Information
regarding the exact whereabouts of
Field Marshal's right. The Russian
scouts have ht touch lth General
Kurokl's main army which may give
Increasing Importance to the flank
ing movement west under General
Oko, which hitherto had been re
garded as a feint for the real turnlig
movement to strike at General Kuro
patkln's Hoe of communications
from tho last. It uls) tiny contain
thf p tentialitbs of a big surprise.
Ten days go Kuropilklu and the
war otlice w. rc convinced that the
Jaoancsu were concentrating at Siau
s han and that an immediate ad
vance was Imminent In force. Ac
cordingly tbu Russl ins fell bick from
the pa-.se of the Da mountain range
without o'lering resistance. Rut
after several days they suddenly dls
covered that the Japanese were not
pressing Imw.rd and thereupon the
Russian scouts pushed out to ascer
tain the cause. They penetrated as
far as Sianschao and Stand) r, bring
ing bick tbe stattling inteligence
that not moie than a brigade of Jap
anese troops was there. This forth
with was followed up by Important
cavalry movements and the reoccu
pallon of the Da range passes, but
Kurokl's main body was not located.
There were no Indication however,
that be had succeeded In reaching
further eastward, whence he could
make a pivot movement agalost the
railroad, and consequently it was
c mcuded that bis main force must
still be between tbe Yental mines
and Hens hu, Ave miles east nf
Yental station.
Io a word, the present advices in
dicate that the Japansc preparations
are being made more slowly taan
supposed. Possibly the delay Is
owing to tbelr desire to take advan
tage of the fine weather to complete
their arrangements f r a long winter
campaign before actively resuming
tbe otfcuslve.
Kuropatkin's plans are carefully
guarded. While he Is disposing his
forces to lak advantage of ny situ
ation that may offer the best opinion
Is that lie will not accept a geneia)
ergigirncnt but will withdraw to
Tlo pass, wbere the buU of his army
is uuissed.

Details of the fighting near Inpu,
between Hentslaputze and the rail

General Mlstchenk's scouts, accom
panied by a battery of artillery, at
tacked a Japanese position, where
tbere was a battery of artillery, two
squadrons of cavalry and two com
panies nf Infantry. The Japanese
were shelled out of their position on
a hill and suffered heavy l.ss. A
they retired the Russians occupied
the hill until nightfall, when they
too retired unler cover ofdirkness
haying lost only three men The
Japanese are sending out large par
ties of scouts daily with theotject
of checking the Russian's continuous
raids.
Dr. MaivIelT, who was captured
by the Japanese at Llao Yant. siys
the Japanese are suffering seven ly
from dysentery, and that they begged
his assistance In combatting the iis-
ease. Japanese officers of tbe staff
are excellent linguists, and many of
them speak English and German, as
well as some Russian. Tte Japan
ese army is living almost entirely
on rice and pres rved foods, but Is
comfortaby equipped, many oft cers
even having aim chairs among their
baggage. Tbe principal Japanese
fear is for forage for their horses, for
during the winter tbe c uutry Is
swept clean for many miles on each
side of the railroad and tbe inhabi
tants are reluctant to sell anything.
Meanwhile both belligerents are
strongly endeavoring to gain an ad
vantage between the Tumen tlver
