In the grand army order is being brought out of chaos with remarkable celerity. The plan In front of Tie Pass, wblcb on March 11 teethed like a nest of ante with the dense and confused mass of transport artillery and iroops, corps, divisions and regiments being scattered and parties in mingled, has been cleared, ihe regiment a reorganised stragglers sent to their respective commands, organisations hare taken their assigned positions, and today the same soldiers, who on March 10, became a terror stricken surging disordered mass of gray at a few shots from a little detachment of Japanese or who even fled In panic, firing indiscriminately in all directions as they ran, at the mere baseless cry of Japanese cavalry, are now gathered singing about the camp fire with new courage, ready to oppose with stubborn resistance an attack on Tin Pass It is unfair to accuse the entire army of this panic. General Linevltch entered the Tie Pas. with bis regiments in perfect order, with music playing and. the men singing, and scarcely n strag filer was loat in the long, difficult serious. - march. made Other Organisations equally praiseworthy retreats, especially the rear guard of the regular armies who performed their difficult tasks resolutely .

It Is one nf the facts of warfare hat the morale of the beaten Ruaaian army la been largely restored, while eST- -s the Japaue-- e, though the victors, apparently are ho broken and have Incurred such hesyy losses that they are unablr to press the advantage.

The last train out was the service train, with all the employes of the railroad The property and station papers. Bkill, exertions and devotion uf this little band of civilians rendered service tbe importance of which cannot be overestimated for tbe future of the Russian army. It saved thousand! of wounded an Immense soldiers, amount of ammunition and millions of dollars worth of property and cash. It must be remembered that five miles north of Mukden an unceasing fight was in progress. Traina earlier bad been bombarded with ahimoae shells, and the railway was twice damaged. The traina traveled unllghted and without whittling under eight miles All about fires blazed iu headway. a gigantic ring, burning straw, coal, Occasionwood, corn and biscuits. ally boxes of cartridges exploded with a disagreeable dry rattle or rockets rose and hunt into clusters of stars.

In the hospitals of the Llveulan division of the Red Cross and Medical staff were 1,0M severely wounded, including 364 Japanese the governor of Mukden giving hia word to defend them until Mukden waa occupied by the Japanese. How reached the station many wounded after its evacuation la not known. Of the military railroad all but 125 miles was abandoned and the wagonettes destroyed. Tens of thousands of boxes of ammunition were abandoned but moat Important of nil. from n material standpoint of view ia the loss of the Fushun coal mines, which supplied the road with coal. The traina were heavily bombardtd but came through safrly. The retirement of the wagon transport waa twice imperiled by panic the morning of March 10. A Japanese squadron and 0 guns concealed In the mountains opened fire and the drivers who were undisciplined peaianta, unaccustomed to the sound of shlmore shells, began to desert their carts and wagons, cutting lose the horses or throwing the store from the wagons. Confusion became rampant and spread lo terror-strickecivilana and even gunners, and was communicated to some infantry The gray troops. clad crowd, without information, bidden by duat, surged on. The Japanese however, anon cesed firing, and order waa restored. Troops following the wagons carried off two cannon but were unable to gather the abandSoldiers broke open oned property. officers boxes and portmaneaua and ransacked them. Just before dark another panic occured at the station of Santnise, where an enormous collection of carta bad halted for the night. A column of Russians advancing, waa taken for Japanese and the cry of Japanese cavalry" was raised. The unarmed drivers commenced to flee, while those with rifles fired In The cooler heads every direction. quieted the panic stricken mass, but a number of lives were lost and. additional property waa sacrificed. The retirement of the central and western armies was effected by four roads and over the fields between. The army of General Unevitch followed the eastern road from Fushun, Impaj and Fu Pas. The third army retired in Etchclon, leaving a strong near guard.

The Japanese did not pro severely from the rear, bending their effort to thrust in from the flanks and rut off portions of the army. Several divisions acting as the rear guard, under General Laounin were almost surrounded, but broke through under a heavy fire on both flanks. Thn rear guard the night of March 10. held the heights at the station of Bushltal, and on March 11 and 12 fell slowly back to Tie Pass. Now. two fays later, the.

The Russians generally held their ground, doing well until February 2fi, when an unexpected attack developed In the southwest, bring with the Russian right, weakened by the withdrawal of almost two corps, yielded. By March 1, it became evident tliat the Japanese were moving around the Russian right in five lie,vy columns, and it became Imperative to witudraw the thin line from the southwest and form a new line from the bridge across the 8bakhe river parallel with the railway. The change of iroat waa accomplished with remarkable celerity but the various organizations became badly mixed. The Ruealans on Marrh fourth occupied their former positions on the 8liakhe river as far as the bridge, thence to Mayapu, on the Hun river, end thence parallel with the railway, six mllea distant, the right resting on the Sinmintln road. The Japanese, on March fifth, beginning to turn even this position with a yiew of cutting off the retreat, the Ruaeisn right was extended eastward from the Sinmintln road to the railway. On March seventh both aides began most vigorous offensive operations, the Japanese attacking with energy the forces of General Tserpitsky, which were holding the position from Madyapu as for as the height! east of Mukden etalion, while the Russians, under General Gc engross, assumed the attack in the direction of Tatchekiao and on the northern front General Launitza' command beat back all the attacks. On the whole the outcome of the fighting on March seventh was favorable to the Russians, woo repulsed aeveral attacks on their southern front and assumed the offensive on the left when General Livrticlies' army, occupying eastern hill positions, repulsed numerous attacks and took several hundred prison-er- a and aeveral machine guns. The continued extension, however, of the Japanese lines northward and the concentration which their superiority in numbers enabled them to effect against the northern and northwestern fronts rendered advisable a contraction of the Russian lines and withdrawal from the Bhakhe river to positions on the Hun river was determined upon. Thi was in no sense the beginning of the general retreat and Kuropatkln and the generals commanding the army were far front regarding the battle as lost. The first army to retire from thn fortified position east and south of Mukden was the third army, which fell back to positions similarly fortified in advance on the north bank of the Hun rver. Thn burning of abandoned stores, provisions and forage disclosed the Russian retirement, and the Japanese followed closely. A confusion in orders anJ retirement in impenetrable darkness acroH the country were responsible for some organizations to occupy the positions to which they liad been assigned and a remarkable dust storm the following day made it Impossible to verify the alignment end fill the breaches, wrhich the Japanese, however, were lucky enough to find and skilfull enough to turn to their advantage. The Russian positions now formed a boot, the toe at Madyapu and the heel on the Hun river at Fuxhun. about five miles wide; and to meet the apparent danger that thn Japanese might plug the top of tlie boot, Kuropatkln sent thither forty battalions from the command ofGeneral Mlloff, which were rendered available by the shortening of the line. The Russians began to slowly fores the Japanese back at Ibis critical point, but the Japanese, In turn, were reinforced on their extreme right, and Geenral Kuro-patki-n, seeing all apparently going well at tlie other positions and determining to stake all on a decisive blow, collected the remainder of the strategic reserves, strengthened tor aeveral other units and led them un the flank of the Japanese, who were attacking and endeavoring to cut the railway. Tlie acale of weight waa on the Ritsslnn aide. The Japanese then retired, abandoning a battery of eight guns, success apparently crowning the Ruaaian arms. At this moment two arts of reports were received, the first that a column of Japanese waa moving further north around the right flank, and the second that the Japanese on the Hun river had taken advantage of the storm which was blowing tlie dust in the Russians faces and of the brcachea in the positions on the Hun to thrust a Pass and column through at f of the boot.
