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

weaken her fighting force.
The fact that Russia can place Ilvr
