TUESDAY, JAN. 51904.

RUSSiA'S DIFFICU LTIES-

lt is tliouqht that in the event of war

breaking out between liussia and Japan

it will be eonlineci to those two povvenl. Should Iiussiia secure a lighting ally it

would bring Britain into tha contest as alle is bound to ii.~isisl..lapari if uttar-Iced by

two or more powers. ’l`his ltussia could not ailord. as it would involve the blozk-

nde of her liuiopeliii ports, aiiil the control

:of the eastern seas by the Anglo Japanese fleets. In fact the risk ot soliciting the

alliauce of any European lation against

.lapan would so iiiuchoutweigh the pos' sible bent-Ii a that it is hardly lo be

imagined thai l€u:‘.~ia eouteuiplatr-s sul-li a course.

lt seems evident from the increasingly

confident and arroganttone of tl.e Russian press that there is a llelief in otiieiaf oiroles at St. Petersburg that the Russian fleet ln eastern waters is no\v more than

able to cope with that of Japan. This

may he true, and should it so turn out Japan must be worstcd at the very outset of the struggle, fora trial of strength at sea would seem nece_~iai~ily to be the

initial contlict of the par. But tliera is

doubt el the superiority of Russia]

strength at sea, at least such doubt exists

in Japan. Otherwise Japan would not

in any case venture to nialre war.

Should the fortune of the sea turn in

favor of Japan, Russian dlfiiculties will be very great. First of all because every

rnan,all munitions of war and almost

every article of subsistence for her forces innst be carried across Llie breadth of Asiato her army. Four thousand miles of distance atleast over a single track

railway, not vory well built or equipped,

all supplies foravast army in the field must be carried. lloreover for many

The fact that Russia can place Ilvr
