" Thursday s news from the seat of war clOGed with the receipt of two dispatches giving information of a most significant character as bearing on the domination of Manchuria at the close of the present campaign. The first came from the Associated Press correspondent at St. Petersburg, filed there at 10:16 p. m., and said that General Kuropatkin had withdrawn his whole army to the right bank of the Taitse river so as to meet General ICuroki's flanking movement. The inference from this dispatch was that Liao Yang had been evacuated, that olty lying on the left bank of the river. Npthing to confirm this was received until several hours later, when a dispatch from the Associated Press corlespondent at St. Petersburg dated September 2, and timed at 1:26 Friday morning, said: "The news of the evacuation of Liao Yang and the withdrawal of the Russian army to the right bank of the Taitse river" had caused intense excitement and disappointment. The same dispatch points out with notable lack of comment that the Jap anese took advantage of General Kuropatkln's withdrawal to occupy the city of Llao Yang. The second dispatch, which may have a significant bearing on the campaign, is that filed at Mukden at 9:27 p. m., Thursday, stating that the train service between Mukden and L*u> Yang was interrupted. This may mean the cutting of railroad communication, which would deprive General Kuropatkin of an opportunity to retreat to his more northern base at Mukden. As pointed out in the St. Petersburg dispatch, the Mukden correspondent does rot mention whether telegraphic communications are open. S. Petersburg, By Cable.?The news of the evacuation of Liao Yang and the withdrawal of the Russian army to the right bank of the Taitse river, reached only a small section of the people of St. Petersburg at a late hour, and caused intense excitement and disappointment. The majority of the inhabitants retired to rest believing that the Russian arms had again been successful and that the Japanese attacks had been repelled. Ugly suspicions, however, had been rife during the day. owing to the absence of press telegrams from Llao Yang, leading to the belief that the communications had been cut by General Kuroki. The following statement was obtained by the Associated Press from the War Office at 10 o'clock Thursday night. "General Kuroki's army crossed in force to the right bank of the Taitse river, and it therefore became necessary for the Russians to be in a posia kl am. In *klfi AI Inn UUU IU IC^I a U1U ? 1U Ulio uut^uuu. "In view of this development in the operations, General Kuropatkin decided to abandon his positions on the left bank and to concentrate his whole army on the other side of the river. This position is the strongest both in character and in site. The great issue will be finally decided there. MOTIVE FOR WITHDRAWAL. 'By withdrawing to this position the Russian army avoids the danger of being divided by the river, and enjoys the advantages of compactness. "General Kuropatkin's move, therefore, is not to be considered as a retreat. but rather as the carrying out of a well defined idea. Dr. Herran Dead.

The Japanese took advantage of this to occupy the city, but the sternest part of the fighting is still before them unless General Kuropatkin decides at the last hour to again fall back to the northward. It is more likely, however, that he will decide to fight to a finish. The cards are all In his favor, it is believed, now that he has the Japanese divided by the river, thus efTctually turning the tables upon his foe. "The determined pursuit by the Jap anese of the Russian outposts when General Kuropatkln gave the first order to withdraw, was probably due to their anxiety to keep the Russians south of Liao Yang until General Kuropatkln should be able to strike from the northeast. General Kuropatkln, however, saw the trap and cleverly avoided it." Up to the hour of filing this dispatch the War Office has not given out the details of the fighting of September 1, but it is believed that this fighting exceeded in fierceness that of any previous day. CENSORS WITHHELD NEWS. The absence of press telegrams from Liao Yang on September 1 aroused suspicion that changes of importance were proceeding which the military censors did not wish to be made known. A telegram from the Associated Press correspondent at Mukden, filed at 9:27 on the evening of September 1, states that the train service between Mukden and Liao Yang has been interrupted, but the dispatch does not mention whether telegraphic communication are open. According to a dispatch from Liao Yapg, General Kuroki made his first attempt to cross the Taitse river late in the evening under cover of a heavy bombardment of the extreme Russian left. The Japanese artillery, which had been firing uninterruptedly for 14 hours that day, ceased about 9 o'clock and then suddenly re-opened about 11 o'clock to conceal Kuroki's preparations for crossing the river. These preparations necessitated the establishment of a pontoon bridge, as the river was not fordable lower down the stream. JAPS CROSSED 20 MILES ABOVE. The efforts of the Japanese to cross the river on August 30. were not successful, and General Kuroki ordered a portion of the army to ford it at Sakankankwantun. General Kuropatkin was uuable to prevent the passage of the river, owing to the distance from Liao Yang, about 20 miles, but for the same reason the Japanese were unable to bring the forces which gained the right bank Immediately into action. Kuropatkin heard of the passage at Sakankankwantun after 6 o'clock on the evening of August 31, and immediately gave orders for his men to fall back upon the outer positions. This move is explained by the desire to collect a strong force with which to repel the flanking attack. General Sakharoff, in a dispatch to the general staff dated today on yesterday's fighting says: "A portion of General Kuroki's force has crossed to the right bank of the Taitse river and Sakankankwantun. A division of infantry with cavalry and artillery crossed first and covered the advance of another detachment. After fordirg the river the Japanese advanced towards Liao Yang in two bodies, one due west and the other oy -ne way 01 me iuuiat miuw. BOTH SIDES LOSE HEAVILY. The Japanese left a number of dead. After each bayonet engagement our troops found time to dig pits in the fields of Chinese corn in front of some of our positions. These, in some cases, were completely filled with Japanese corpses. The enemy's losses must have benn enormous. Ours have not yet been even approximately computed, but they are also large. A considerable number of Japanese arias fell into our hands. "The night pased quietly. Up to 6 o'clock this morning there has been no movement on either side. "General Kuroki is constructing a pontoon bridge."' Fight Was a Draw. Philadelphia, Special.?Frnkie Neil, of San Francisco, the bantam weight champion, and Tommy Murphy, of New York, went six rounds to a draw at the National Athletic Club. It was a terrific fight from beginning to end, and both men received some hard punishment. Neil, however, had slightly the better of the bout. Fears German Invasion. Cape Town By Cable.?Official information from British Central Africa says that the Congo Free State is constructing concealed forts of considerable magnitude on the western shore of Lake Tanganyika, and that one of these forts, which is equipped with 20 guns, is within two hours of the German frontier. It is believed that the Belgians apprehend a German invasion. A number of natives who are German subjects have been expelled from the Congo Free State. It Is understood that negotiations regarding the matter arc now proceeding between Berlin and Brussels. Dynamite Exploded. Birmingham, Ala., Special.?Dynamite was exp oded under the house of a negro preacher at Adamsville, near the coal mines operated by the Tutwiler Coal & Iron Company, Monday but no one was seriously hurt. Part of the house was demolished. The negro preacher is said to have preached a sermon Sunday night advising the union men to return to work. THE SECOND DAY'S FIGHTING I Graphic Description of Conflict .Between Large Forces. Liao Yang, By Cable.?The second day's battle commenced at dawn. The Russians made repeated bayonet advances on the road directly south of Liao Yang where the Japanese approached from Sanquaiship and Tao, shelling the position in the Russian lines until 4 in the afternoon, when the engagement, which was general throughout the south and southeast, narrowed to the main line. The Japanese advance on the southeast was by way o' the Feng-Wang-Cheng road. Immediately in front of Chlaofantun the Japanese stubbornly attempted to occupy a round-topped hill, which was literally shaved by Russian shells, making repeated attempts the entire day where apparently it was impossible i 'nr onvthlnr tn live. The cannonading continued from this point to the vicinity of Wangpaotai until this evening, without apparent advantage to either side. The Japanese dropped shells within two or three miles of the railroad station and in the plain of Wentshu Mountain, which Is the most important eminence around Liao Yang, but the Japanese abandoned aggression there on account of the reistance they met. There was cannon fire last night, and this is expected nightly. The varied casualties here included one Russian war correspondent wounded and also 25 Chinese women from Qilafon. The ^ day's developments show that the Russians are prepared for all emergencies. Slow rain began to fall at noon, gradually transforming the plain into a wilderness through which the wounded, in carta and walking, are tonight making their way to the hospitals^ Considering the scale of the day's operations, the number of Russian wounded is apparently small, while the Japanese losses are believed to be great, especially where they were repulsed on the south road. Chinese graves with trees i oM hotnv levelled about Liao Yang in order not to interfere with the defence. Developments are expected west and northeast. The Japanese are using balloons to locate the Russian guns. One of the | Russian correspondents of the Asso[ Dated Press points out that the Japarese sent up a balloon shortly after daylight to the southeast of Liao Yang. The Japanese are reported to be using mortars to drop shells in the Russian positions. These are probably the high-angle-flre howitzers which were reported in action earlier in the week. It is said, however, that the Japanese are no longer enjoying the superiority in artillery, which stood them in such good stead in the earlier months of the war. It was then hill fighting, and the Japanese mountain batteries, in which arms the Russians were deficient, told with deadly effect Now the contest is !n a comparatively open country, where both the Rusian field guns and the Russsian cavalry can come into more effective use. South Carolina Primaries. Charleston, S. C., Special.?Democratic primary elections were held throughout South Carolina Tuesday tye State and county officers and members of Congress. Success in this primary ensures success in the general election in November, as the Republicans make no nominations except possibly in some districts for Congress.

Chicago, Special.?A dispatch to The Inter-Ocean from Weimer, Texas, says: "While incarcerated in jail, Oscar Lee Tucker, a 17-year-old negro, under arrest for attempted rape, was mysteriously lynched. The officials are unable to determined Just when or how the act was committed. The cage had not been broken info, but Tucker had a 40-foot rope around his neck and his head was drawn up io a hole in the cell about eight inches in width and not over four feet from the floor, used to pass food through to the prisoners. His feet were tied close to his body with cords. There is no clue to the perpetrators." State Brings Suit. Columbia. Special.?The summons in the matter of the State of South Carolina neainst Frank P.
