movement along the whole line.
The st. Petersburg correspondent of the

with Prince khilkoff, Russian minister of
railroad communications, who has just re-
turned to the capital from a prolonged visit
to Manchuria. The minister says he derived
an excellent impression from his tour. The
Russian troops have recovered their spirits
and have confidence in their leader and in
the future the effective strength of the
army is greater than 1t ever was, even be-
fore the battle of Mukden.
The Russian losses since the beginning of
the war, said Prince Khilkoff, had been
over 100000 men. He saw Gen. Kuropatkin
about fortnight ago. The former general
issimo had no intention of returning home.
His health was excellent and he declared
that his duty as a soldier bade him remain
in Manchuria. Prince Khilkoff did not dis
guse the fact that the worst feature of
the situation for Russians was their abso-
lutte ignorance, not only of the strength of

chiefly due to the British alliance. He was
gratified to see that the public opinion of
Great Britain, after a lapse of three years,
still favored the treaty 1t would be
Japan's endeavor, he said, to strengthen
