The Japanese and Russian troops have at lust measured their strength in earnest, after terro days of preliminary fighting, maneuvring for position and feeling the way, and the Japanese baye not only gained the day and forced the passage of the Yalu, but have also shown then- in mobility, in weapons, in skill at the use of selves superior to the Russians in generalship,

thea, auk in the fighting spirit of the rank and filo. Plainly, the Russians are outclassed at every point. They have lost a most important position. lust prer a thousand men, in killed.. wounded and prisoners, lost half of their artillery and large quantities of ritles l Ammunition, and most of all, they have lost their power to ferrify. They have had to hoist thes white flag. It is an ominous beginning.

When there has been talk of Russia's land forces retrieving the prostigo so much damaged on the water, the Japanese lure commented, cautiously. "It is probable that the army may b stronger than the navy, but we may find that. the difference is not very great after all." And now they have won the first test match. fairly and thoroughly.

The beginning of it all was nearly a month ago, when the Japanese cavalry scouts followed up the retreat of the Russians through the north-west part of Corea, and had a brush with some Cossacks just outside of Wijn on the Corean side of the Yaln River. Tho Russians retired to the Manchurian side of the river, and at oure began to prepare for a big stringggio ut this point. It may be true, as frequently stated
