The contracts for guns alone call for
"an outfit of field pieces that Will num-
Der half dozen thousand" and Will
place Russia ahead of any power in
the number and efficiency of its light
artillery. Speaking OF the change Of
base by the Russians, IL Is stated:
when they obtained from China the
Port Arthur and Manchurlan conces-
sions there was an evidence of decided
haste in the circles OF st. Petersburg
diplomacy to put Russia on n naval
footing in the far east that would make
her second to no power on earth. II not
in the very lead. Suddenly, however,
all the plans for this sort of prepara-
tlon for trouble were dropped. 1t may
be that the hurry orders which four of
the largest British battleships received
TO steam to the Chinese coast had
something TO do with IT, and II may not.
Those consersant with the situation say
that British battleship commanders
have n very embarrassing habit Of
checking any little plans which rival
powers may be making. hence they de-
duce that had the expected movement
about Port Arthur occurred there
might have been trouble.
"The Russian is willy under any cir
cumstances and checked in one direc-
tion he is not inactive in all. There
fore. the preparation has gone right on.
only in another line. and now in the
vast steel manufactures of Pennsyl-
vania, there are being constructed the
rolls, bridges and rolling stock that will
put the czar's people in close communl-
cation by land with their possessions
on the Chinese coast"
