IRE service of Mr.. Newherry and his
rich companions rs defenders of the flag

regular officers, from Captain Emory
down, derived great enjoyment and hi
larity from assigning h volunteers TO
all sorts of mental tasks. The young
men who We're accustomed to nothing
more than a society life
were forced to wash the decks. scrub
the Hoo and polish the fittings of the
ship until their arn ached. MIR. New

lar officers. n they had no end of fun
with him. Nh. Newberry was game.
He performed every task assigned to

He has never forgotten his experience
with regular laval officers, and now he
is going to be assistant secretary of
the nav and, have u good deal to say

ors think he wanted the place for no
other reason than to get even With
them.

Vermont district. Judge Wheeler. Uni-
ted States Judge for TIE Vermont dis

cosT OF WAR TO RUSSIA.

ST. Petersburg. March 2S.-Stung by
wholesale criticism lately heaped upon
The War office for It's unpIepatednesS
and ~incapacily in providing the Man
churian arlny With men. guns and
munitions. the aImy organ today lays
bare what has been done since the open
ing OF hostilities, giving exact figures.
10000 Men Sent.
From these it appears that up TO
March 10 the war office had dispatched
Il. CS1 officers. 16l, 461 men, li6,i 0S horses.
i,52l guns and IL, 32l onS OF munitions
and supplies 10 the front, declaring the
transportation strained the Siberian
railroad to it's utmost capacity.
The army organ admits that the army
in the far easl when the wag opened
WAS hardly worthy of the name. No
figures are given, but it is known the
troops did not exceed $4,000 men.
Wanted to Avoid War.
The organ defends this on the ground
that the emperor desired TO avoid war
and therefore refrained from sending
reinforcements which surely would
lave provoked ILL.,.

The Matter of Guns.
While affirming that the quick firing
guns and field guns OF the Russians
are superior to those of the Japanese.
the war oftlce explains the misfortune
in the insufiiciency of mountain guns
as due to the fact shat when the war
broke out Russia was just adopting Il
new pattern.
1t IS denied that the war office was
deceived in regard to the available
strength ot the Japanese army or the
organization OF tine Japanese reserves:
but the army organ frankly admits
that the talents of the officers and

greater than that depicted in his story
