EFFECTS OF RUSSIA's FALL

W, 7. Stead calls attention to the fact
that the revolution In Russia, which he
thinks will surely come. will give a
powerful stimulus TO the movement IN
favor OF the formation OF the smaller
states on the basis Of nationality The
separatist movement in Hungary Ia
mentioned as an instance Of the effect
OF the disabling OF Russia. Should
this succeed and the dual monarchy be
broken up. there would be a lively
struggle between the several nation
allties for separation and independence.
Fear Of Russia has kept many small
states together
But the greatest result OF the dis
abling Of Russia Il the transfer OF the
predominant influence in eastern Asia
to Japan. aud the consequent awaken

European powers Unanswered for ad-
vantageous positions In China. They
even fought for them. But the Japa-
nese conquered and the peace Of Ports
mouth virtually transferred the super.
intendency OF Chinese affairs to ia.
