Disgraced General Has Full Conf.
dence of His Soldiers.
st. Petersburg, Aug. 22.-Is General
Kufopatkin, once the pride of the en-
tire Russian army, war minister and
lighter by nature, but whose Iaurels
were trampled under foot by the vic
torlous Japanese at Liaoyang, in the
earlier days of the fighting in Northern
Corea and Manchuria, to be indicated
That is the question uppermost in
the mind Of every officer OF the army
tonight, and also the chief topic Of dis
cussion at the military clubs, on the
question arising through the indus
trlous circulation OF report that the
czar has sent for the general and in.
tends to place him once again at the
head OF the department of War. Such
action would overthrow all ancient
Russian traditions, but it is apparently
necessary.
kuropatkin is the one man, and
probably the only one in all Russia
who is in position to reorganize the
army. He is loved by the common
solder, who believes that he is the
only officer of general rank who has
their interest at heart. If Entrusted
with the task of bringing back the al
legianee OF the troops to the Little
Father" he could do it, and the know
ledge that this is SO is responsible for
.he belief here that he is to come into
his own again.
Since his return from the front. a
olsgraced and broken hearted man, the
general has been in retirement at his
mother'c home, but it is generally ex-
pected that he will soon be back in the
capital In his old position as minister
Of war. MINISTER
