JAPS READY TO FIGHT
Oyama pressing- Russians in Manchuria
and thought clash of arms will come
soon ? Not known where main blow
will fall
[Special Dispatch to the Daily Alaskan.]
tiunshu Pass. May 22 ? The truce is expected to terminate almost any time. The
we -t her has cleared up and the roads will soon l>e dry. The Jajvanese are evidently pre
paring to assume the offensive and the clash of war will not be delayed long.
The Jajwuiese are shifting their positions constantly and are pressing the Russian
left wing. Oyama is deploying heavy forces against Linevitch's left and is concentrating]
his troo}* along the center but his base remains opposite the Russian right. It is not ,]
clear which wing of the Japanese aamy will deliver the main hlow that is expected to fall.
