ORDERS AN INQUIRY.
Gar Commands That the Port Arthur
Situation Be Riaidly lnvesti-
gated by Experts,

st. Petersburg, Feb. 25.-The czar has
ordered an inquiry into the Port Ar
thur affair, and many dismissals and
degradations will result, it Is said. In
the same influential circles are circu-
lated rumors concerning Viceroy
Alexieff, he being, 1T Is said, looked
upon as a disappointing personality.
From a high military authority /
have it hat the commiSSariat has CIV
en- proof Of such defective organization
hat the service has partially broken
down, which at this juncture is a very
serious matter. Many of the most
necessary %adjuncts Of field service have
been overlooked-for instance the port
able kitchens. for which a well known
German firm here received a rush or
der at it's own prices for 800.
All possible artillerists are being
dispatched to the front, they, to their
disappointment, being notified that
they Will be used for defending the
railroad.
Difficult to Transport Troops.
For many unexpected reasons the
transport Of troops to the front Is
much slower than expected. The an
ticipated average Of 1000 per diem
having fallen to 1900. 1t is thus anti
cipated that SO far as Russia is con-
terned there Will be considerable de-
lay in taking action. and If hostilities
ore commenced soon 1t will certainly
not be u to the initiative of this coun-
try.
The feature Of the moment is an ex-
tremely serious one, taken with regard
to h prospect Of international COM
plications. 1 am In a position to tell
O that in spite Of the ridicule cast
upon the idea rom various sources,
once again the porte has lent a willing
ear to the diplomatic suggestions of
Russia that the Black Sea fleet should
one day be found unexpectedly in the
Mediterranean, Turkey being assured
that this once an accomplished fact
not n Of the powers would have a
word to say in objection. If they did,
Russia would be a~nswerable.
