The Office of Naval Intelligence reports that there has been no change in position along the Sha River since last week. The first reported military operation on the west side of the Liao River was a Russian raid by Cossacks accompanied by mounted infantry and eight guns. It is not clear whether the troops passed though neutral Chinese territory.
