JAPs HAVE $4,000 MEN, $50 GUNS
Russians Oppose the Enemy With
About 100000 Men.

The Russian army organ publishes
official statistics of Field Marshal Oya-
mas forces based on the regimental
numbers on the uniforms of the Jap
anese killed during the engagements
with General Kuropatkin's forces.
The total of Field Marshal Oyoma's
regiment troops is placed at 1880
cavalry and infantry and $50 guns,
The total number of reservists is prob
ably 100000.
Military men estimate General Ku-
ropatkin's superiority at about $4,000
men, without including the Sixteenth
army corps, which is not yet in the
far east. These figures are likely to
dash the hopes of the peace party,
which has distinctly been acquiring in.
iuence in high quarters during the last
few days.

their posts until all the guests had
been gotten out, although the elevators
caught fire and the youngsters were
burned about the face and hands.
