RESERVE FORCE FOR PANAMA.
Natives Of Panama Republic are to be
Drilled for Purpose.

Panama, March 23.-Plans for the or
ganization OF large and well trained
reserve force from among the natives
81 the republic OF Panama are being CON
sidered BY Brigadier General Clarence X
Edwards. commander of the Panama can
al troops. II Is proposed that these re-
serves should form part OF the Panama
canal defense forces and should be tram
ed bv American officers for use in case
the canal or the republic were attacked
ed.
General Edwards has had brief con
ference with General Esteban Huertas,
the lberator OF Panama, who declared
the plan entirely feasible and promised
his aid in the event il was decided 70 es-
tablish such native reserve force.
Ii is said that practically all Of the
natives in the interior are excellent shots
and would b. perfectly willing to serve
for a short time for little pay IN the
various instruction camps that would
b. established. General Huerta believed
that probably 10000 10 10000 such re-
servists could b. obtained.
The native troops would be oiheered
by Young Panamans, schooled BY the
American officers u would BE- IN the
nature 81 a national guard Of Panama
but would not suppant The present ma
tional police.
General Huertas, probably, would be

THE LATEST RUSSIAN SUCCESS.

THE LATEST RUSSIAN SUCCESS.
When the authentic history of the
present war is written in all its complete
ness great Importance is likely to be laid
on the siege and defense of the fortress
of Przemysl in the Galician province Of
the dual monarchy of Austria Hungary;
and fair need OF praise will be given
to the doughty defenders of the fort
ress. Ever since the war had its actual
inception, Przemysl has been one OF the
chief objective points OF Russian attack,
and it is reasonable to assume that the
same plan was in view in the theoretical
warfare which Russia built up in the
long years Of peace, just as every other
European nation is accustomed to map
out plans to be used in the event Of
declaration Of war. Germany had her
well.laid plans; Great Britain had hers,
only Great Britains were not supported
BY such extended preparations as were
those of her chief foe in this war. And
so had the other nations. To Russia the
fortress of Przemysl was the key to the
lesser Of her great foes, and the key also
to the heart Of that greater foe from
the southern route. Therefore, Przemysl
has been the golden reward sought since
the outbreak Of hostilities.
Against the attack calculated to bring
that reward, Austria Hungary made he
roic defense in the face Of strong ODDS
a. far a. numerical strength was con
cerned and, latterly, against other great
odds in point Of decreasing supplies ~
food and ammunition. For months the
fortress held out against All assaults and
then. when provisions and ammunition
we're running low, the garrison made
valient sortic in an endeayor to cui
through the encircling besiegers. but all
in vain. Przemysl had 10 fall; and. hav-
inc fallen. the key to the eastern part
