DRUNKENNESS IN RUSSIAN ARMY.
Authorities Are Planning Fight

owing to the prevalence Gf drunken
ness in the Russian army 1t has been
decided to abolish the traditional gift
OF glass of vodka on Ger. ain gala
days and replace 1t by a glass Of Cau-
casian wine.
Gen. Keppen afIirms that 70 per
cent. of the crimes committed by sol
diers are done when under the influ-
ence Of alcohol. Another authority
goes as far as 95.4 per cent Twelve
per cent. Of the confirmed drunkards
in Petersburg began to drink in the
army. The reason for this is said to

racks. The commissariat try to "econ-
omize." II is conclusiveiy proved
that In one Of the Petersburg bar
racks, where six pools (28 pounds) Of
wood a da. are assigned for heating
the building. only 30 pounds, or one
fifth is used. The soldiers are cold,
and therefore try to warm themselves
with vodka.
Will cost the government, which has
the spirit monopoly, a goodly sum.
One regiment alone spends over $4,000
rubles annually ON vodka. II this Is

one general remarked: You can no
more teach a Russian soldier to do
without vodka than you can teach
duck not to swim" So there Is little
hope Of fighting successfully against
