world as the greatest living Russian
statesman. Witte-he is count now

ner, bluff of speech and withal quick
tempered. But he is honest. a master
Of intrigue and has thorough grasp
OF Russian and world affairs. He is
a reformer who has worked wonders
with the railway system and the
finances Of his country. but has gained
the undying hatred of the grating and
reacuonary element
Witte opposed the taking Of Port
Arthur from Japan In 1898 and the
aggressions of Russia in Manchuria
aud Korea. foreseeing that these steps
would inevitably lead to war with
japan. He was overruled in all these
things, and his attitude on the far
eastern question had much TO do with
his downfall as prime minister. Now
