Russian Comment on R0ose-
Velt's Idea of Larger Army
and Navy.

ST. Petersburg. Dec f2.-The newspapers
mere are lust beginning 70 make heated
comments on President ROoseve3t's mes
sage to congress. Its reception generally
is favorable. The Novoe Vremya con-
slders that il presents nothing of partic-
ular Importance. ian endorsement of i'm
periaiism and the Monroe doctrine being
expected from Mr.. Roosevelt" The pa
per adds that the presidents idea is that
the United States is doing its share in

men, II says. will find ii very expensive.
just as Europe has. but possibly il is
the only way. If the Utopian theories
were realized and the civilized powers
disarmed. humanity would fall into the
depths of barbarism. No means have yet
been found for insuring respect OF inter
national law except armed force.
With regard to President Roosevelt's
statement on the subjects of Kishineff
and the passports of American Jews. the
NovOe Nremya says:
When congress enacts a stringent I'm
migration law to keep out undesirable
emigrants. coupled with a law to prevent
naturalized Americans who have no in
tentiOn of living in the United States
from shielding themselves behind Amer
lean passports. there will be less trouble
over the passports of American Jews and

GUARD OF HONOR.
Rough Riders Will Attend Roosevelt

parade on March 4 next will be a squad
ron OF picked men from his old regiment

volunteer cavalry. Colonel A. G.. Brodie
governor of Arizona. and Major w II.
Llewellyn. formerly of the Rough Riders.
took luncheon with the president today
and arTangements for the guard of honor
were made at that time. 1t is the wish
of the president that Colonel Brodie Sc
lect from the members OF the regiment a
squadron of from thirty to fifty men &c
act as his special escort on inauguration
day. he also particularly expressed the
wish thgt no other members OF the Rough
Riders than those selected h. Colonel
Brodie take part in the parade. While
others may come to Washington TO at
tend the inauguration, the president has
made il clear that IL will be impossible
for him at that time TO see them.
The president desired Colonel Brodie TO
inform the members of the Rough Riders
that he would attend the annual reunion
OF the regiment at San Antonio the latter
part of next March. and after the re-
union the president probably will take a
hunting trip with Major LleweIyn.
