LINEvTTCH'S REPORT PUZZLES.
Much Speculation Concerning His
Mention of Reinforcements.

LONDON, March ,21.-GeneraI
Linevitch's report to the Emperor
that he had inspected newly arrived
troops caused much speculation in
London. as indicating that the COM
mander in chief of the Russian army
in Manchuria either has gone further
north than had been supposed or that
Russian reinforcements are still be-
ing sent south from Harbin- The lat
ter hypothesis is considered hardly
likely, in view of the fact that the
Russians are trying to effect the
speediest possible retirement to Har-
bin.
Clearly a rigorous censorship is
again being enforced from both the
Russian and Japanese sides.
The st. Petersburg correspondent Of

struggle in the hope OF dragging in
