No matter how large a sum is de-
manded by the japanese az Il war in
demnty. it will hardly be larger thar
the amount which Russia has wasted
during the war or which has bee
stolen outright by the corrupt Russian
officials. The expedition OF Rojestven-
sky. for instance, which was wholly
fruitless to the Russian cause and
which was known to be hopeless
from the first. resulted in tn.
destruction and capture of Russian
ships valued at fully 800, 100000 not to
mention the appalling sacrifice of life.
and this is only one item in the vast
sum which Russia has worse than
wasted in carrying on the war.

didn't look like he had had great
deal of experience out dn the broad high
way, occupied the room. he added: Don't
you mind 1T. I'll go myself.
Upstairs raced the manager and began
pounding on the door. At first there
came no response, but the bell continued
to ring merrily. -. last the inmate bel

notes thoughtfully. and clackety-clack-
