MAINTENANCE OF POSITIONS.\u2014_\u2014 Tokio, Oct.12.\u20148 p.m.\u2014Reports from the scene of the battie now raging along an extende front from a central point north of Yen tai westward acro:s the railway south-east of Ben si hu, on the Tai tse river, say that the struggle continued undecisively throughout the day.The Japanese commander\u2019: avowed pur- Pose was to continue the assault throughout the night and the following day.The Russians have a Rreit force down close to the Tai tse river.Apparently Field Marshal Oyama\u2019s attack was nicely timed to interrupt the strony turning movement that was threatening Liao yang itself.The right army, reporting last night, says: \u2018The enemy\u2019s artillery opened a severe attack at ten o'clock on Tuesday, against our forces at Ben si hu.\u2019 The enemy, with one regiment from his right and five battalions from his centre, assumed the aggresive.Fighting 18 now progressing.He is bombarding points between Ta pass and Ben si hu.In the direction of Tu men tsu pass-an- other artillery duel is progressing.Our detachment sent to the left bank of the Tai tse river returned aîter driving the enemy back.The enemy has some guns near Tayupu, on an upper stream of the Tai tse river.The enemy is holding a line from Tu men tsu pass to Ben si hu, and east of the roadway he has 80 guns and fully two divisions of infantry.The enemy opposing the main strength of the right army, and holding a line from San.chim tzu to Pacia tzu numbers four divisions.The right column of the right wing, and the left column continued severe fighting until sundown.The left wing of the left column operating with the right column, and the cen- | tre army are trying to attack the enemy, posted at Sanchim tzu, but the progress of the front centre and left wing is very favorable.The commander of the army was still keeping up the attack upon the enemy even after dark.The left army reported as follows: \u2014 \u2018The advance effected by us to-day has been compatatively favorable, We are continuing the attack against a line extending irom Pa tchia po to Lui tun kow, Should the commander be unable to accomplish his purpose before sundown he will continue the attack during the night and the following day.The enemy opposing us numbers at least two divisions.\u2019 RUSSIANS ACROSS THE TAI TSE.The, following report from the headquarters of General Kuroki's right army was received to-day:\u2014On the morning of Oct.9 a body of the-enemy crossed the Tai tse river at Wei ning ying.toward Chiao tao and Ben si hu.Its strength was one brigade of infantry and 2,000 cavalry, with two guns, East of Ben si hu, on the right bank of the Tai tee, the enemy\u2019s strength has increased to one brigade of infantry and 1,500 cavalry, with eight guns.The enemy toward Ta pass consists of a mixed brigade.One regiment of infantry at Men chua po and another at Pa chia teu are advancing south.\u2019 WITH THE CENTRE ARMY.General Nodzu\u2019s centre army telegraphs as follows: \u2018On the morning of Oct.9 the enemy.one division strong, held a line stretching from Chen hua ghatien to Pan chia po and Tui tun kow.\u2018On the afternoon of Oct.9 a column of the enemy advanced southward from Lui tun kow along the railway.His advance has reached to the south of Wu li chia, Also from Lui tun kow there has advanced a body of Russian infantry, consisting of three battalions, which seem to be strongly supported.; \u201cThe line of the enemv advancing along the railway is five miles long.; \u2018A body of the enemy is posted in the hills east of Pan chia po.\u2018At two o'clock on the afternoon of Oct.8 two regiments of Russians entered upper Lui ho tsu.They advanced to Shao ta kou.The enemy\u2019s whole strength, one division.is advancing toward our front.\u2019 OKU REPORTS.\u2018 The headquarters of Geperal Oku's leit army, telegraphing on Oct.9, says: \u2018The enemy does not show much activity.His main strength appears to be posted

FAVORABLY.Tokio, Oct.13.\u20149.30 a.m.\u2014Field Marshal Oyama, telegraphing from the field yesterday, says that operations are progressing favorably.SERIOUS CONFLICTS.A batch of reports covering the fighting of Oct.10, published this evening, records serious conflicts at various points along the Japanese front.There was a desperate struggle near Ben si hu, where the Russians crossed the Tai tse river, and where the Ja- Panese endeavored to entrap the invaders.The Hsin chuang garrison vigorously attacked and repuiscd the Kussians, possibly relieving the pressure on the Ja- Panese lines of communication.; The headquarters of the Manchurian army, in reporting conditions cn the night of Oct.10, telegraphs: \u201cLhe enemy, with a body of inlantry of considerable strength is holding an eminence west of San chia tsu.\u2018A powerful column of the enemy 1s advancing in the Ye: hokou valley, near Shao ta kou.A regiment of Russians is tortifying the ridges.; \u2018Another body of Russians, with artillery, has been seen advancing toward Upper and Lower Lui ho tsu.\u2018À line of eminences east of Ben si hu was taken by the enemy, as were ridges east of the roadway between Suo li chia and Ben si hu, by a night attack.The next morning, under cover of a mist, our force succeeded in retaking the line of eminences east of Ben ai hu, and another line of ridges between Suo lin chia and Ben si hu.\u2018Before the right column of the right army the enemy's artillery is holding the whole line against which fighting is progressing.HAND-TO-HAND FIGHT.\u2018At 11 a.m.the enemy's cavalry attempted to attuck one eminence east of Suo li chia, but they were driven back, after a hand to hand fight.The enemy left numerous killed and retreated to the base of the eminence.\u2018Reports received up to this evening show that the enemy about Ben ei hu appears to have reinforced, but our troops are holding their positions.\u201cThe centre army reports as follows: \u201cOur right column is occupying Kiu chia line of heights east of Ya men tzu.Our left reached the ridges east of Huang ti and attacked the enemy at Wi li tzu, but was unable to distodge him up to sundown.?ATTACKED THE COMBINED ENEMY.\u2018Our left army reports as follows:\u2014 \u201cOur right column is occupyinfi Kiu chia tzue and vicinity, and is co-operating with the left and centre.The army attacked the enemy\u2019s combined forces occupying the heights $f Wu li tai tzue, in the vicinity of Ere stai tzu, We took possession of a line extending from Sou tai tzu to Ere stai tzu.Our centre col- wmn reached a line from Chien tai tzue to Kang chai tai, which they had been bolding since the day before.Our left, after attacking the enemy holding Hsi lao cha tun, continued to advance to Hochiatun.The garrison at Hsien chiang made a night attack and drove the enemy east and north,\u2019 NO OFFICIAL.NEWS, RUSSIA UNACQUAINTED WITH EVENTS.St.Petersburg, Oct.13, 3.20 a.m\u2014No official news of the result of to-day\u2019s battle south of Mukden is avalluble at this hour.General Kuropatkin, doubtless, has communicated his regular report to Emperor Nicholas at 1sarkoe-Selo, but the despatch was not sent back to the General Staff to-night.The frontal attack on the Yen tai mines developed a desperate battle, in Wkich probably one hundred thousand men were engaged, but though the despatches so tar deal almost exclusively with this feature of the battle 1t is pointed out that there is a much wider field involved.lt is possible that the attack on the Yen tai mines may simply be intended to hold the main Japauese furce stationary and that the cutcome of the Yen tai fight may have little bearing on the result of the general engagement, The battle now in progress undoubtedly will outweigh in importance the hard fight at Liao yang.For Kuropatkin, vie- tory partial or complete, is absolutely necessary.Defeat would certainly spel] ruin for his military reputation and probably prove a disaster of the first magnitude to the Russian army.If the Japanese should roll up Kuropatkin's advance now all hope of an aggressive Russian success in this campaign or of relief for Port Arthur would be ended probably for this year; but Russian success now means à winter campaign and immensely enhanced prestige, not only for Kuropat- lin personally, but for the Russian arms in Manchuria, in the eyes of the Chinese, which is an important factor in the present situation.POSITION REOCCUPIED, RUSSIANS IN GREAT STRENGTH.Tokio, Oct.12\u2014General Mumezava\u2019s detachment,

vessels from Corea, say that the situation there is serious.Four thousand well mounted Cossacks are raiding in the north from Jiku to Gen- san.Communication between Seoul and Gensan has been cut.It is stated that the railway for many miles has been destroyed.lhe Rusgians are reported to be within seventy miles of Ping yan.Steamers are arriving at Chinam po discharg- mg railway material.The Russian raid is on a scale hitherto unprecedented.All houses and food supplies on the line of march have been destroyed, LONDON OPINION.NO RELIABLE INFORMATION, London, Oct.13\u2014(4 a.m.)\u2014From the multitude of war reports received here, the only fact emerging is that the fighting is continuing.The newspapers print ong Tokio telegrams reporting that Marshal Oyama's report does not elucidate the\u2019 actual position.None ot these despatches deal with the doings of yesterday, copcerning which nothing las been Teceived here through reh- able channels.À press despatch from Tokio indeed professes that a general Japanese advance on Mukden was going on yesterday, but this is not corroborated\u201d from other sources.A feature of the reports attracting much attention here, is the Russian attack on Hsien chwang, which 18 spelled on the Russian and (German maps, Tsian chan, north of Sai ma ise, Reference to the maps shows that this is the rear of the Japanese main position and commands the road leading south-east to the Yalu river, The 1m- portance of this movement cannot be gauged accurately, It js assumed that the attackers can only a raiding force, which it was rumored

under date of Oct.10, describes the country that the Russians have chosen for their operations as a semicircular range of are mountains east of the railway, extending from Yen tai to Da ling.They began their advance from Mukden early in \u2018Oct.crossing the Hun river at several places.The armies are now confronted on mountain ranges divided by a narrow valley.The situation js most interesting and promises to develop into a great battle, PORT ARTHUR.ADDITIONAL HEAVY GUNS PLACED BY THE JAPANESE, \u2014_\u2014 Che foo, Oct.12.\u2014Japanese who arrived here to-day from Port Dalny, report that additional heavy guns are now dropping shells into the harbor of Port Arthur.They add that one shell recently severely damaged the Russian battleship \u2018Refvizan.\u2019 The repulse from High Hill, the Japanese say, was the only reverse which the Japanese before Port Arthur have suffered.On the other hand, the Japanese have destroyed two redoubts, which gave the Russians a flanking fire from Rihlung mountain against their assailants, and the Japanese remain in six other captured fortifications, south of Shui shi ying, which were mentioned in these despatches on Sept.25.The Japanese consider that the progress they have made is satisfactory and believe that the capture of the for.trees, although slow, is certain to be accomplished.JAPAN PLACES ORDERS.\u2014_\u2014

vernacular, is well understood to apply to a class of young teughs who have no respect for sex, age or the rights of decent persons, and no sense of what is becoming.Few know the derivation of the word.It was in 1872, when the Oddfellows held à picnic at Redwood City.A gang of toughs attended.Among the gang from San Francisco was one whose name was Hood Lummix, who was a peculiarly formed creature.Clumsy, big footed, with a large mouth and protruding teeth, thick lips, a big, bushy head of hair of a dirty brick color, standing out like quills on a porcupine, this almost malformed specimen attracted the attention of the young rowdies, who picked upon him for a day\u2019s sport.Go where he might, he was followed by a gang who hooted and made things unpleasant for him during the day.; The amusement of the gang did not confine itself to the picnic grounds.They went outside, broke into orchards and flower gardens, destroying valuable property, and finally wound up by shooting a valuable horse belonging to a rancher.This last act was more than the sheriff of San Marco could stand, and he bagged a couple of dozen of the offenders.When 25 and 35c, 2,000 Fancy Gui.Pure Collars,

INVITED.BEFORE THE JUDGE.THE TRIAL last week of the fourteen- THE MONTREAL - would be all the greater were she to refrain from the mad competition of armaments.\u2014\u2014\u2014ee Diamond importers have been notified by cable that the \u2018diamond syndicate\u2019 in London has declared a general advance of five percent on all rough stones.And just as the winter is coming on, too, and work is expected to be slack! Within the last year there have been three similar advances, each of five percent, and importers say that the prices of large diamonds are now forty percent higher than they were in the early part of 1903, and that desirable sizes of small stones have advanced as much more.While white diamonds are being placed by this despotic syndicate more and more out of the reach of poor people, it is good to know that \u2018black diamonds\u2019 are not so scarce and dear as they were; and that if only rich people may have carbon in the shape of diamonds to wear, poor folk now find it easier to get carbon in the shape of coal to burn.Notwithstanding the many advances in the prices of the best stones, no falling off in the demand is expected, but rather it is predicted that the higher prices will stimulate sales.The value of diamonds lies in their scarcity, and the dearer they get the more they are wanted.In so far as diamonds have any intrinsic value, it is in their beauty, and in that respect we can all be very well off for diathonds, as Jewellers\u2019 shops, are plenty, and we are permitted to gaze through the windows as long and as often as we please.It is for ourselves to say whether such gazing shall give us the pleasure that the diamonds have in store or the pain which comes of our own covetousness.THE WAR.The world is or should be breathless for news of the tremendous battle that is just now raging between Mukden and Liao yang.General Kuropatkin, possibly feeling that he was at last in sufficient numerical strength to take the offensive, or, more likely, urged by the distressful Czar to make a dash for the relief of Port Arthur, an apparently preposterous proposition, has thrust his tremendous army down the line of the railway, where it is reported by the Japanese army that is in front of it on that line, to stretch back five miles without reaching the other end.\u201cThe front of this force was met and has been so far withstood by General Kurokks army on the north side of the little branch railway which runs from Yen tai station to Yen tai coal \u201cmines.Though there are said to be a hundred thousand men engaged in this direct conflict it is doubted whether this was the main idea of the movement.In order to turn Gen.Kuroki\u2019s right Gen.Kuropatkin sent a large force down the road leading from Mukden through the mountains to Pen si hu on the Tai tze.Coming down through the Ta pass this force captured Pen si hu and some of it crossed the river.The Japanese report having recaptured Pen si hu, and it is believed in Japan that this means that they have isolated the detachment which got across the river.General Oku, whose army forms the Japanese left, found no great force thrown against him, the strength of the Russian attack having been thrown eastward, He immediately entered upon the attempt to turn the Russian right.This is all we know.The Russians being now on the offensive have adopted Japanese tactics with regard to news, and practically nothing comes through from either side till days after it occurs, except Field Marshal Oyama\u2019s periodical \u2018All's well.General Kuropatkin merely says that Tzursnar, Ocroser 13, 1304 \u2014 \u2014 DAILY WITNESS.blemished reputation have been indicted for corrupt manipulation of contracts and other arrests are expected to iol low.Forty charges of bribery have been filed by the city attorney, the sums given to officials and aldermen ranging from three to three thousand dollars.Considering the money-making value of some of the contracts alleged to have been corruptly obtained these bribes appear small.It is a fine question adds to or diminishes his treason that the consideration is petty.The \u2018grafting\u2019 seems to have been carried on by a corrupt ring of aldermen in collusion with city officials.The paltry consideration for which these men betrayed their trust and risked criminal prosecution is shown in one instance where a contract for waterworks machinery was secured at a hundred thousand dollars in excess of cost for a bribe of eight thousand four hundred dollars, which the ring divided among them.Other large contracts for street cleaning and other services are believed to have been obtained in the same way.It has also been ascerlained that a regular system of grafting, by which saloon-keepers and other people doing business on the margin of respectability were compeHed to contribute to the ring, has long been in operation.Even the public schools were made to contribute, and those who got the furnishing of supplies paid for the privilege.The police is not exempt from the system.In fact, there is not a department of city government but is soiled by.corruption, and the coming trials are expected to lay bare a shocking state of affairs.The worst and most saddening feature of these exposures is the fact that the bribers are citizens of high standing socially and in business.Men who shouid be foremost in upholding civie honesty are shown to be the corruptors and the organizers of a system of public plunder by bribery of aldermen and city officials.A city must be in a bad way when its biggest rascals are found among its leading citizens.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 MR.BORDEN\u2019S FALLACY.Russia has had an abundant wheat har vest this year in her southern European provinces, but imstead of being able to keep it at home, to feed her own starving millions, she has had to sell it to England.This is not a new phenomenon by any means, as England has steadi- (ly bought quantities of grain from Rus- gia, year after year, even when famine has been raging in some of the Russian provinces and all her foodstuffs were real- Iy» required at home to feed her starving Population, Russia is in that beatific state that Mr.Borden and the Canadian Manufacturers\u2019 Association de-ire for Canada, that is, Ler exports exceed her imports, and so her \u2018balance of trade\u2019 is ideal, according to the protectionists.whether when a man sells his trust it.United States exports more than she imports, but the same may be said of the poorest of the South American republics.| In the case of the United States, her development has been so rapid that she has had to borrow emormous sums of money, and part of her surplus exports goes to pay interest on that horrowing, part goes to pay British shipping which \u2018acts as her ocean carrier, and part goes ; to provide the enormous expnses incurred by her citizens ;n Eurove.Tt is a very simple proposition that it a tradesman does not receive more than he pays the year\u2019s business must show a deficit, and, similarly, if an island, such as Great Britain, were to send out year by year more goods, natural products and money than she took in, it would only b> a matter of a very little while for her to become depleted and she would have to give up business.Besides her current commerce, Great Britain is now reaping the benefit of her past Investments.and she is in the position of a prosperous merchant, who not only draws a large income from his own business, but from other businesses in which he has invested past profits.Last year being by far the most prosperous year in our history, Canadian imports increased, while exports decreased, and immediately there were Jeremiads uttered through the land.We by no means care \u201c0 see our exports diminish, our desires are all the other way; but that we could afford to buy more during the fiscal year 1904 than for the previous year, was a matter solely for rejoicing.1t simply showed that we wanted the goods and that we had the money or its equivalent to pay for them.GAS PROSPECTS.ALDERMEN NOT SANGUINE OF IMMEDIATE REDUCTION OF PRICES.\u2014 The Fire and Light Committee expect to meet the officials of the Montreal Gas Company for a conference on the subject of a new gas contract to-morrow morning.The aldermen are still in the dark as to the prospects of better terms.Some aldermen express the opinion that the object of the company is simply to kill time and delay matters until it is too late to make a new agreem\u2018nt.Ald.Vallieres points out that the city could not afford to extend the present contract on any consideration as under one of its terms no other company could lay pipes in the streets while the present contract remains in fore.Similarly no other company is allowed to erect the city during the term of the existing | electric light contract, the Montreal Light, Heat & Power Company having a monopoly.There must be either a new contract allowing a possible competing company to lay pipes or construct electric wires, or else the present contract must be allowed to run out, when new terms may be arranged more to the ad- Mr.Borden is stumping through the country proclaiming that we are buying three times as much from the United | States as we sell to that country, and that this is a national calamity.Really, | the proportion is not so great.In 1903 | for instance, we bought\u2019 goods to the; value of $137,605,195 from the United! States, and sold to her goods to the! value of $71,783,924, or a mtio of less than two to one, as we showed in previous articles.We also showed that this \u2018adverse balance\u2019 as Mr.Borden would call it, was largely made up of raw materials, such as bituminous coal to the value of $7,565,608; anthracite coal, 26,- 683.649; Indian corn.$3,250,329; gold and silver coins, $7.863.625, and gold and silver bullion about a million, which is the very stuff in which the protertionist de- the fight has now been going on for four days and is even fiercer than that at Liao yang.We can well understand the intensity of interest with which the nations engaged must be looking for news, as the struggle is a life and death one for both.Neither could recover defeat in a long while, CIVIC TREASON.According to its mayor the town of St.Louis, which is one of the score of municipalities whose separate incorporation obstructs the mother city of Montreal, has been emulating its great namesake in municipal corruption.It 1s to be hoped that these very dire accusa- year-oll girl 1s &o0ing to come up again in tie High Court above, and Al that had anything to do with her triai then have BOL to be there and appear before the judge war, and all the nations are displaying keen anxiety to keep on good terms with! tions will be followed up and sifted, and, if criminality is proved, that punishment will follow, such as has followed in St.who 1.going to try that case, and many other< like it, and every ou vau Le assured on the authority ol God's word.They will get justice from that Judge.And all the newspaper men that have outraged the girl in their false reports will be {here to answer for their untruthfulne:s.All re invited to come and hear Joha Currie, at 75 Iuspector street, speak on the coming trial! aud judgment, Next Sunday Evenirfg,Oct.16,at 7 o\u2019clock God's Word says, \u2018Shall rot the Judge of all the earth do right.\u2019 \u2014(Geus.AVili, 25}.\u2018All must appear before that judgment seat.'\u2014(2 Cor.v., 10.) \u2018l warn every ungodly sinner of thi; black, sinful city, to prepare to meet the Judge.\u2019 \u2014(Amos iv, 12.) \u2018Christ shows the way, (repent and believe the Gospel.)\u2014(Mark {., 14:15.)
