and Russia's position is compared to
that of Great Britain after the initial
reverses of the Boer war. Several
papers take pains to throw a little
cold water on the exultation with
which the news of the japanese VIC
tories are received in London. Every
thing is not over. bar the shouting.
say these papers, and, by the way, a
majority of the English press pays a
warm tribute to the manner in which
Russia has received the news of her
disasters.
What will Japan do next? is the
question asked on every side. The pre-
dictions made here are neither more
nor less valuable than those published
on the other side of the Atlantic, and
it is idle to cable more than an indi-
cation OF what appears to be the con.
sensus Of British expert opinion on

power in the far east was entirely
upset.
Russia. one expert says, is in the
position of chess player who loses
his queen in the first half dozen
moves. The naval position of tho
Russians at Port Arthur is considered
absolutely desperate. and 1t is thought
most unlikely that v1adivostok's
squadron of four powerful armored
cruisers will be able to go to the
assistance of the battered feet at Port
Arthur.
Admiral Stark's position there is
likened to Cervera's at Santiago. He
is described as being between the
horns of dilemma. He must either
submit to be held under the guns OF
Port Arthur in a posture intensely
humiliating to Russian pride and pres
tige. or he must come out and fight
in a condition of inferiority which
would render defeat almost a foregone
conclusion. Whatever now happens.
the Japanese empire is thought safe
from attack. 1t is, however, recogniz.
ed that the war is by no means over

sian army. and 1t therefore seems un-
likely that Japan would willingly
place any large force in Cores except
as concerns a road to Manchuria in
the absence of any better road. But
is not the sea better road? That is
the question / find some difficulty in
answering. There are three points at
which an army if landed would be
well placed for operating against the
Russian communication. They are
the north coast of the Liaotung gulf
between Shan Hal Kwan and New
Chwang. the northwest coast Of Corea
bay between Port Arthur and the
Yalu, and the coast near Vladivostok.
But in the present season the first and
last of these places probably are i'm

There was great scene at the

the rank of officers. The czar, who

ing the cadets, said.
You are aware. gentlemen. that

The Russian newspapers in general

Japanese will realize what they have

Russian hearts are beating in unison

The Bourse Gazette says: "Yester-

will be startled by Russia's heroic
work. Japan has placed herself be-
yond the pale of civilization. The up

In this connection the Russ claims
to have authority for saying that the
two new Japanese warships, the MIS-

certain capture by the Russian squad
