The Russians withheld their fire for some--time.. Suddenly they threw ii searchlight\"up the valley. The Japanese opened.with\nrifle fire. The, Russians' wailed until apparently the whole Japanese-column was in the danger zone. Then\nthe mine exploded. The foree of the'explosion knocked a nUuibcrJ\u00bbf Rffinahs down an.l the sight of Japanese rifles, water bottles legs iind anus hurling through tile lighted space .made hy the searchlight was an\nawful spectacle; Sd'mij landed inside ^tho Kn-ian lines. There was one appal ing moment during: which the\ngarrison was stunned. They a, d.eathly silenced reigned. The searchlight lighted up the read and hillsides\nstrewn with dead. The following dav the Kiissi.in-; buried, the dead, but owing to their dismembered and\ninutliated condiljpn )the Russians were unable to accurately estimate the number of killed. A few Japanese\nesctfpfed,' however. The foregoing information is contained in a small sheel issued Sept . bv the Fori\nArthur Novillrai, a breakage in theipress having made il impossible to issue a full edition. The Chinese\narriving here at midnight confirm the above to the extent of saying that they heard'a report that many\nJapanese had beenkilled by a -miner On the night,of August 20'and 'JT, a simitar disaster befell the Japanese near redoubt No. 2, il i- reported,, Imt detail- have not been received.\nSt,,Petershi-Tg, Sept, 8..\u2014(G.25 p.m.)\u2014General Ivonropfitkin'sofficfal reports nt from Mukden during\nthe evening of yesterday, announcing that the whole of his army had arrived at \u201e.lukdcu and was taking up\na position around the city and adding th.i. the army had nol lost a gnu during the retreat, relieved tbe public\nanxiety and put an end to the many alarmist reports which have been current here.\nFrom tlie general's report it Seems evideh. that Kouropatkin is tentatively preparing to meet the\nJapanese again should field Marshal Oyama Continue to press northward. Nothing more important than*\nrear guard actions marked tbe march to Miikden. The region south of that cil-v is now clear itf 'Hus>ians.\nIl is evident, however, thai Kouropatkin is taking prceautions to prevent the Japanese from,creeping arouri.d\nhis Hanks, as lie reports that the Japanese cavalry is actively scouting wide oh liis Hanks. The Japanese arc\nreported to be moving up about 80 miles on either side of the railroad witli the view.of surrounding Mukden. Hut whether Kouropatkin will accept an engagement or continue northward will probably depend at\ndecisive moment upon tlie temper and condition of hi-'U'ot.ps, who doubtless have been much shaken by ihe\nlong tight and theliardships attendant upon the retreat. \u25a0\n.
