JAPAN AND RUSSIA AT SEA.

The latest number of Brassey's "Nayal An
nual," just out gives an authoritative account
of the present state Of the Japanese and Rus
sian nayies, as affected by the late war, and of
their prospects for the near future according
to which the easy superiority of Japan seems
assured for a number of years and her place
among the great naval powers of the world TO
be firmly established. 1t is true that in the war
Japan's losses were heavy. Three of her six
battleships were sunk. Yet so great were her
gains through capture of the enemy'S ships
that her navy, despite those losses, emerged
from the war stronger than 1t entered the war.
There have been added to the Japanese fleet five
first class battleships- namely the Orel, now
the Iwami, which was captured, and the Peres-
Wet (Sagami), the Pobieda (Suo), the Poltava
(Tango) and the Retvisan (Hizen(, which were
sunk and afterward raised and repaired the
second class battleship Nicholas (IIi) and the
coast defence battleships Apraxine (Okino-
shima) and Seniavlne (AIishima). These, at least,
twice Offset the loss of the Yashima, the Hatsuse
and the Mikasa. The Japanese lost in the war
two cruisers, the YOshinO and the Mlyako, but
they gained the Bayan (Aso), the Pallada
(Tsugaru) and the Variag (Soya), twice over
atoning for their losses. Half a dozen more
gunboats and other craft have also been trans
ferred from the Russian to the japanese flag
and salvage work is hopefully proceeding on
others.
AS for the Russian navy, 1t was almost ami
hilated in the war" 1t lost eleven first class
battleships, or within one of twice as many
as Japan's whole fleet. There remain to it only
four such ships, of which two are In the Black
Sea- one escaped from the war and one was
not finished in time TO enter the war. OF seven
armored cruisers. only two remain, and of five
| second class cruisers three remain. A few
smaller craft escaped the slaughter. OF course
uo nix fr0r tha
Practically, then it is required of Russia To
create n new navy. That she will do so is NOT
TO be questioned, but IL is obvious that ii will
| take a long time and much work and treosura
| TO rival again the Japanese navy which now has
| so great lead.
At the present time Japan has ten first class
/ battleships and Russia four. Japan is building
! two and Russia four When these are done tho
account will stand twelve TO eight in Janan,s
favor. and thus it will stand at the end of 1900
| 1t is reported. on plausible authority, that Rms
sia has adopted a scheme of naval construction
| extending over term of nine years cOmnris
! ing twelve battleships If these are all eddi
| tional 10 those now under construction Russia
will have by the end of 1915 only twenty hat
| tlcships, a number which Japan will prohohl
find no difficulty III equalling. Indeed. Japon Is
| believed even now to he planning to construct
| in her own yards several more first class hot
ueships of 10000 tons each. In n race for su
premacy In Eastern seas therefore the island
| empire need have fear of being soon ont
stripped.
