October 15.?The main armies of Russia and Japan in Mancburia continue to be engaged in a desperate struggle for supremacy south of Mukden. On both sides there have bees sueh losses in killed and wounded as mark the cootest for one of the bloodiest battles in history. Ailrtoooo ot Tiian "V.ina hnvfl XOdUj vuy ivoww ww been approximated and the indications are that they will be exceeded, that of the Russians up to noon cf October 14 being estimated at 15,900 The Russian advance has been converted into a stubbornly fought retreat. The result, according to the Russians, is still to be determined. Reports from the Russian left wing are lacking, leaving room for question if part of Gen Kurcpatkin's army is not in worse extremity than the centre and right were at any stage of the battle. On both sides the soldiers havs shown the utmost tenacity and bravery and whole regiments bav& gone down before the fire of the enemy. Iq official circles of St. Petersburg there is a disposi Moo to argue that eveo should Geo. Karopatkio be obliged to retire upon Mukden his position will be quite as favorable as it was when the order to advance was given oq October 6, and that on the other hand the Japanese powers of future resistance will have been materially weakened.
