Burton, OF Ohio. was defeated. The
cruisers then were put to the test, and

cussion and an amendment by Mr..
Bell, OF California, requiring one col
lier to be built in government yard,

CAPTAIN MAHAN's VIEWS.
Russia Crippled by Fighting at Sc
Lonu a Distance,

New York, Feb. 26.-Captain Alfred
I. Mahan, the great naval authority,
in reviewing the first week OF the war.
says:
Disparity between two belligerents
In bulk and numbers would place Ja-s
pan at hopeless disadvantage from
the first. We're it not for her situation
SO much nearer to the scene OF action.
This advantage of position again
might be of much less consequence
were the Russian line of communities

more rapid and copious than II is. 1t

ty and vastly greater means of trans

her struggle against n rival whose
power by land would be irresistibly
superior We're she able to bring 1t fully
to bear at the point OF contention, and
also to sustain 1t by continuous
stream of reinforcements and supplies.
For SO only can the waste of war be
repaired. This inferiority Of Russia
tends continually to diminish. and ul-
timately to disappear, as she increases
her hold upon Manchuria and eastern
Siberia by increase of population and
armies, by development OF local re-
sources and by accumulation of prep
arations for war. In this lies Japans
justification for forcing the war now.
Her military security against a not un-
certain future inferiority in material
force depends upon assuring now her
tenure of the necessary defensive po-
sition by acquisition and military de-
velopments.
1T is difficult to estimate with any
approach to precision the carrying
power OF the Siberian railway for the
purposes of war. 1t seems safe to in
fer that the power OF Russia to main
tain stream of supplies so limited as
to indicate that in the long run the
aggregate numbers of her active force
available for the field and for the de-
Tense of necessary bases must fall be-
low those of Japan. necessarily re-
newed by short passage over the
open sea.
"a comparison of various statements
inclines me to the belief that Russia
is even now inferior in quantity of land
forces available on the probable scene
of operations. as well as in the power
of renewing them. To this is to be add
ed that being in possession, up to a
certain point she is on the defensive.
Communications dominate war. and
the relative condition of communities
tions, so far as pointed out, emphasizes
the immense Importance of the COM
mand of the water to the present
struggle. Whatever the measure of
her political wishes. the front of ia
pans military operations will be
pushed northward and westward as far
as they can safely be sustained so as
to threaten the Russian railroad lines
to Port Arthur in the south. and ult!-
mately, should success warrant such
extension. those to Vladivostok in the
east. What she may be able thus to
effect lies In the unwritten future"
