CABINET UNITED.
They WIN Justify Their Course al
Proper Time.

London, January 1S,-sir Matthew White
Ridley, the home secretary, speaking at
Blackpool this evening, said ION behalf
of my colleagues aud myself would say
that we all share the full responsibility
for the cabinet like the nation has been
united from the beginning. There is no
doubt that when the proper time comes
for the cabinet to justify its course the
justification will be sufficiently ample.
cit is not the business of the press to
criticise the action Of our gtslant gen
erals in the field. There Is none OF them
who does not possess the full confidence
OF the country and the government"

WAR is POSSIBLE.
Japan aud Russia Are Preparing,
Says Naval officer.

Says Naval officer.
Chicago, January u.s. War between
Russia and Japan Is looked upon as iney-
table by the naval officials Of those
countries who have been nearest the prob
able scene of the future operations said
Lieutenant Romanoff OF the imperial Rus
sian navy, who arrived In Chicago today.
The lieutenant has Just completed three
years cruise in Asiaticf waters and is on
his way to st. Petersburg.
He continued: How soon such a war
may begin It is difficult to say. but events
little short of miraculous must occur to
avoid It. The Japanese are building war
ships as rapidly as possible in anticipation
of the outbreak OF hostilities, and Russln
Is Strengthening her navy as fast as she
can. That Russia must have new naval
base between Port Arthur aud Vladiyo-
stock Is conceded, and that she will try TO
get one In Korea is certain. In the event
of such war II Is considered probable IN
Russian naval circles that Russia will have
the aid of Germany and that England will
take the other side. European hostilities
VIII follnf the outbreak OF war between
Russia and Japan. The mobilization OF
Transeaspian troops at Baku and Herat
and other military maneuverings on the
part of Russia are taken by official Rus
sia TO mean the beginning OF movement
to eliminate English influence In territory
heretofore held by her. beginning at Ka-
bul. II is certain that England will have
to fight to retain her territory in the east"
