ST. PETERSBURG, August 5. 2:15
p. m.——Detailed reports reached the
War Office from General Kuropatkln's
generals, show that the Russian losses
July 30, July 31 and August 1 did not
exceed 4,000. The Japanese are be-
lieved to have lost at least an equal
number.
From a comprehensive review of the
flgllting obtained by The Associated
Press, it appears that most of the Rus-
sian losses were sustained on the Sai-
matse road, and between Simoacheng
and Halcheng. The two divisions of
the late General Kelicr‘s corps did not
make a serious resistance at the Yang-
ze’ Pass. falling back on Llandianslan,
with scarcely any casualties. Similar-
ly General Stakelbcrg’s and General
Jaroub‘aleff’s troops retired upon An-
shnnshau (half way betwoen Haicheng
and Line Yang) without heavy fight-
ing or loss. .

Another point where most stubborn re-

between Simouchcng and Halcheng,
which was held by General Zassalltch,
who had been placed in command of
a newly formed corps, including the
Thirty-first Division belonging to the
Tenth European Corps. and two Siber-
ian battalions, altogether 18,000 men.
General Zassslltch’sr misfortune at the
Yalu River was duplicated, owing to
the superiority of the Japanese artil-
lery. He was making a splendid fight
until he suddenly discover-d that the
Japanese gunners were enflladlng his
batteries. It appears that Zassalifch in
this case was not to blame. The infor-
mation that General Zaroubaieff‘had

him with hlsown orders for withdraw-
