inconvenient and loss Of time, and
the emperor determined to receive
dispatches direct from his officers.
So another rope which bound Alexieff
in his viceregal throne was torn
away. Manchuria was placed under
martial law, and consequently under
the government of Kuropatkin. Alex
ieff's duties were Of a civil character,
but there was little civil adm1nlstra-
ton to be conducted.
Alexiem is not man to give up,
however, and he held on. Tho he
was not responsible for, he indirectly
suffered by, the blowing up of the
Petropavlovsk and the death Of Vice
Admiral Makaroff. AS the only avail
able high naval commander on the
ground, the emperor telegraphed him
to proceed to Port Arthur and as
sumo command of the fleet. Then
the emperor announced that he had
selected Vice Admiral Skrydloff to
succeed Makaroff, and that Alexieff'
appointment was temporary only.
Alexien will eventually come to st.
Petersburg. He will be decorated,
and he will be made#a member of
the council of the empire. This means
that he will be shelved for a time,
as De White has been.abut he is too
active a man to be idle when effort
may haul his feet out of the quag-
mire in which he stands. De Whites
star is in the ascendant. Powerful
as he was In the position of finance
minister, he was relieved of his post,
and Alexieff may feel that what has
happened once may happen again.

HOW AIev;aff Wac Tot Down

Tho Alexieff could not be held di-
rectly responsible for the, disaster at
Port Arthur, as prestige suffered,
nevertheless, and soon all Petersburg
was whispering at the strategic blund-
er consequent upon :he division of
| The fleet. Stark was Immediately re-
! lieved, and Alexieff recommended to
the emperor that either Vice Admiral
Makarof or Vice Admiral Dubasson
be named as his successor. The emper-
or sent for Makaroff, told him, in spite
| Of his objection, he must go to Port
! Arthur, and then added: you will
nave indepedent command of the
| feet" This was his nnajesty's first ex-
preston of dissatisfaction with the
| policy Of Alexieff.
Alexieff was a sailor, not soldier,
and 1t was necessary to assign an able
| officer to command the powerful army
| to be massed in Manchurfa. General
| KUropatkin, ex-n1inister Of war, was
sc lected for the impc rtant duty. That
this could not be acceptable to Alexieff
was generally known in st. Peters
burg. Kuropatkin had spoken for
peace in preference to military adven-
ture; he had declared to friends and
| to acquaintance that Alexieff was
| responsible for the mess into which
| Russia had gotten, and that if he went
to the far east it should be as the COM
nlander-in-chief of the army. The
emperor, having confidence in Kuro-
l.atkin's ability, appointed him. A
l,kase was issued giving him ''inde-
| pendent" control Of forces in the field.
1T would have been manifestly inn
proper to place an ex-minister under

Japan,s Diplomatic Victories.

Count Lamsdorff participated in
the negotiations, but their real con-
duct was intrusted to Alexieff, and
BezobraZoff co-operated with him. The
result was that Japan gained substan-
tial diplomatic victories, which might
not have been achieved had trained
diplomatist like Count Lamsdorff
managed the Russian side Of the ne
gotiations. When war became newt
able, Bezobrazoff began to lose inf1u-
ence, and suddenly high official so
ciety in st. Petersburg was startled
by the announcement that he had re-
tired to Cannes, and that retirement,
it was whispered, was by invitation
of the emperor.
AlexieT was still in the far east,
and as viceroy in direct control of the
operations of the army and navy.
In command Of the fleet at Port
Arthur was Vice Admiral Stark, his
personal friend. AS he had not pre-
pared for war on land, so Alexieff had
not prepared for war on sea. At least
this is what his enemies Say. -Four
armored cruisers were at Vladivostok;
the Variag and Korietz were lying in
Chemulpho harbor, and the remainder
of the Pacific fleet were lying in the
exterior roadway at Port Arthur,
without adequate lookout, when the
Japanese descended upon them like a
thunderbolt. The Variag and Koreitz
were destroyed, the battleships Ret
vizan and Czarevitch and cruiser Pal
1ada were badly damaged. A1exieff
and Stark had no excuse for this fatal
negligence. Vice Admiral Makaroff
drawing from his own experience
had telegraphed urging that the ships
