Japan's Strength IN
The Manchuvian EeId
Four Armies Now Engagedn Carrying Forward The
Victorious Flag or The Mikado

LONDON, July S.-There are foul
Japanese armies now in the field
three of which are acting in co-ope.a
ton in the general advance against
General Kuropatkin in Manchurfa
leaving the fourth engaged in the
siege of Port Arthur. The four ar
mics are accompanied respectively by
Generals Kuroki, oku, Nodzu and
Nogi. Marquis Oyama, the command
er-in-chief, is expected in Mancnuria
the coming week to take supreme
command of the four armies.
The first army, General Kuroki's, is
that whcih was disembarked at Chem

combatants and $500 coolies-with
5000 horses and thirty-six guns and

The second army, under General
Oku, is that which was landed at Pit.

divisions.
Including the seventh, eight and
ninth divisions, the location of which
is not certain, this accounts for all the
thirteen divisions Of the Japanese
army. Roughly speaking, the strength
of a Japanese division, combatants
and noncombatants, is 25 5000.
II the permanent active army has
been put into the field there would
be altogether 203 batallions, fifty.fiye

adds fifty-two battalions, seventeen

the total Of fightingmen 22S.300 rank

for troops guarding communications,
garrisons and $4,000 engaged at Port
this would give 10000 men, or
approximately, as opposed to

for getting a seat Is to be able to pay

Frenchman and at least twenty-five
years old. He must have served four

must be personally acceptable to the
agent from whom he would purchase
the seat and often to his family, in
Guiding the ladies. He must be passed
