Kuropatkin's Army, Mukden, Oct. 5.—SC#Duts returning from the east and northeast say Geueral Kuroki, with a large part of his vast army, is moving westward from a point north of the Hun river and above the eastern road against the Hussian rear. Grave fear of a disastrous attack before General Kuropatkin can move enough divisions toward the region north of Mukden to meet the advance Is entertained. The activity of Marshal Oyama's other forces south of here has kept the Hussian general engaged In outpost fights, and it is thought in the meantime the Japanese commander has thrown most of Kuroki's forces around the Russian left. An attack from the rear in this stage of the campaign, it is realized, might result In splitting Kuropatkin's forces. New York, High. -132 Vi . 23 .26% . .61% . 84 ict. 5, 1904. Low.

Kuropatkin's Army, Mukden, Oct. 5.—SC#Duts returning from the east and northeast say Geueral Kuroki, with a large part of his vast army, is moving westward from a point north of the Hun river and above the eastern road against the Hussian rear. Grave fear of a disastrous attack before General Kuropatkin can move enough divisions toward the region north of Mukden to meet the advance Is entertained. The activity of Marshal Oyama's other forces south of here has kept the Hussian general engaged In outpost fights, and it is thought in the meantime the Japanese commander has thrown most of Kuroki's forces around the Russian left. An attack from the rear in this stage of the campaign, it is realized, might result In splitting Kuropatkin's forces. New York, High. -132 Vi . 23 .26% . .61% . 84 ict. 5, 1904. Low.
