GLOOM DISPELLED

Late Successes of Soldiers of
Czar Cause Rejoicing.
BLOODY BATTLE OF THE YALU.
Late Contest on the River Was Most
Sanguinary—Japs Bodies Are Lying
Piled In Heaps—Russian Losses Are
Also Severe.
St. Petersburg, May 4.—12:40 p. m.
—The gloom which prevailed here
yesterday was almost completely dis
pelled this morning when the people
read the story of the glorious light
made by General Sassulitch’s hand
ful of rough regiments against the
flower of the mikado’s legions at the
Yalu, and of the utter defeat of Vice
Admiral Togo’s new attempt to sea!
the entrance to Port Arthur.
A Sanguinary Contest.
It is now plain that not more than
1,000 Russians actually engaged in
the fighting at the Y’alu engagement!
against the Japanese army, of a total
strength of between 30,000 and 40,000.
The losses on both sides, which
are expected to reach 1,000 and pos
sibly 1,200 in the Russian force and
twice that number for the Japanese,
make it one of the bloodiest fights.
At the river crossing the Japanese
dead lie piled up literally in heaps,
and General Kuroki’s success was
purchased at such a heavy cost that
the Russians are disposed to regard
as rather a defeat than a victory for
him.
Fought With Bulldog TenacTly.
General Kuropatkin’s dispatch
shows that the Russians fought with
such a bulldog tenacity and bravery
against the overwhelming superiority
of the enemy that the latter’s nominal
victory was eclipsed by the prowess
of the czar’s soldiers.
General Kuropatkin’s report also
served to restore General Sassulitch
to public favor. Those who were dis-

REPORT OBVIOUSLY FALSE.
Capture of New Chwang by Japs Is
Not Credited.
New York, ..ay 4.—The special tel
egram to the London Chronicle dated
Che Foo asserting that the Japanese
have taken New Chwang is obviously
false.
New Chwang. which is on a river,
and about 30 miles from the sea, could
not possibly be taken except as the
result of an attack of at least two or
three days’ duration. The Associated
Press has a correspondent at Che Foo,
Shan Hai Kwan, New Chwang and ^
Yin Kow, any one of whom would cer
tainly have reported an attack upon
New Chwang.

No New Developments.
Port Arthur, May 4.—There have
been no developments since the at
tack on Port Arthur of May 3.
During the bombardment the big
guns of the Russian ships and batter
ies fired 2,500, while the machine
guns of the gunboat Giliak fired 3,000
. shots.
The Novi Krai says it learns that
the Russophobe Chinese, headed by
Viceroy Yuan Shi Kai and General
Ma, are carrying on an active anti-
Russian campaign and that traveling
orators are spreading false reports ot
the strength of the Japanese and the
magnitude of their victories and are
telling malignant stories of Russian
designs throughout the Chinese towns
and villages with the object of incit
ing the masses against Russia.
