rection of the camp. On the Goth we
had an engag ement with the same red
skins who had killed Custer and the
detachment 1t was not until the 9th

RUSSIA'S ARMAMENT COM
PARED WITH JAPAN.
COM

As to the relative strength of Rus
STA and Japan available for the pur-
pose of land and naval war in th
Orient, there is considerable differ
enee of opinion. According to the
military budget Of Russia, her army
would seem to be about 1,400,
600. According to the
budget Of the japanese Empire, her
army would seem to number abou
100000, with a reserve of about 40,
600 more. Many military writer's,
however, estimate Russia's military
strength as in the neighborhood Of
100000, and even higher, and some
estimate the military strength of ia
pan as at 5000, and higher. As to
the efficiency of the military organ
cation of the two empires, critics diff.
er. The naval strength Of ia
confesscdly greater than the strength
of Russia in Oriental waters. Rus-
