close, intimate touch with the people

that the nation at large is heart and
soul with him In this war. The splen-
did bearing Of the troops, although
many Of them were reserve men, sat
isfled the emperor that he could rely
upon them. The journey, indeed, in.
fused new strength into both the ma
ton and ruler. Touching evidences Of
the deep affection of the peasants were
given at many places. I recall one In
particular. The emperor slept at q
monastery near Kremenchug. Early
In the morning he went out for walk,
attended only by an aide-de-camp,
thinking to pass unnoticed through the
village. But the peasants at once rec.
ognized him and the news of his pres.
ence spread like wildflre. Hundreds
of peasants soon collected. forming q

Of Liaoyang and Chinese troops are
guarding the Shinmintung
railway. The Russians are having the
greatest difficulty In pacifying the in
habitants. who apparently are anxious
to rise against them. Toulisan, Gen.
eral Ma and Viceroy Yuan Shi Kai are
partisans of the Ming dynasty and are
openly planning a revolution, with the
aid of the Japanese, who cleverly take
advantage of the quarrels between the
parties Of the Taising and Ming dynas-
ties. The former is championed by
the bannermen or privileged classes
of Mongols, who hate the Chinese. The
latter are headed by Yuan Shi Kai and
the whole Chinese nation. The prov
.inces and cities where the Chinese ele-
ment predominates are invariably pro-
Japanese. The Russian sympathizers
are only to be found among the banner
men Mongols.

OF the Japanese complete mastery Of
