CAPACITY OF SIBERIAN
ROAD is LIMITED.

Berlin, February 2.-The Militar Woch-
enblatt the organ of the German general
staff. has published an article discussing
Russia's prospects of reinforcing her
army in East Asia The paper takes a
pessmistic view of the capacity OF the
Siberian railway and especially OF the
crossing of Lake Baikal, where 1t says the
difficulties to be overcome are enormous.
The limited capacity Of the line is said
to be a much more serious matter than
the threatened damage to it by natives.
The paper estimates the present troops
moving capacity of the railroad from
Russia's experience of last summer IN
moving two brigades to Tschita, east OF
Lake Baikal which was only accomplish
ed at the rate of eight and half miles
an hour. At this rate it would take
thirty-six days to convey 25,0O0 men from
the Ural mountains to Mukeden or Vladi-
vostock
The paper assumes the present strength
of the Russian army in eastern Asia to
be 158 761 men and the foregoing estimate
of time required to move troops. it de-
clares it will take until April 20 for Rus
sia to raise the strength of her East
Asiatic army to 232,000 men.
The Militar Wochenblatt is of the opin-
ion that the easiest thing for Japan to do
to compel Russia to abandon Manchuria
is to strike at the center of the country
or in other words, concentrate her forces
against Harbin.

Russia's intended address to the powers
has caused great interest. A diplomat
whose government is inclined to sympa-

of the Japanese commander, he thought 1t

Vicksburg would be the subject of an
exchange of views between the ST. Peters,
burg and Washington governments.
