We may often fall short of doing what we desire promptly, but In the end nil that will change. Our armies will grow, our armaments will improve.

Tha Novoe Vremya, voicing the prevailing sentiment, saye: Kuropatkln Is n cautions leader, and 11 le taken for granted that he weighed well the risks before undertaking the wide turning movement. We probably shell have to wait long and weary hours before knowing tha results of tbe battle now begun. Toklo, Oct 13. 2 p. m. It Is yet too early to ensure the results of the tremendous struggle which has been waged for the past three days south of Mukden, but nil reports reaching To-kindicate that Kuropatkln has been decisively whipped and severely punished. The Russian commander wax evidently caught while making his dispositions with his forces scattered and he was beaten before he could recover. Much depends on the ability and thq resol aMon of tha Japaneae in applying and following up their advantage. Kuropatkln may turn upon favorable ground and succeed In beating back the Japauese onslaught, but the tide seems against him.
