RUSSIAN TROOPS
REACH THE WEST
FRESH CONTINGENT OF THE
cZAR'S SOLDIERS JOIN THEIR
ALLIES IN FRANCE.

Paris, July ia contingent of Rus
sian troops disembarked today at
Brest, France.
The Russian troops will be sent to
camp from Brest, and later to the
front.
This Is the sixth contingent Of Rus
sian troops, the arrival of which in
France has been reported. Between
April 20 and May there arrived at
Marseilles five bodies of Russian SOL
diers, after land and sea journey Of
about 1880 miles, from Moscow,
where they we're assembled, to Port
Dalny, Manchur1a, and thence by wat
or via the Suez canal. The first five
oontingents are believed to number
about $4,000 men. These troops were
quartered at Camp de MaiIly, near
Troyes, for several weeks and then
sent to the front. The Official French
communication Of last night showed
that Russian troops were in the
trenches in the Champagne.
1t was said that the sending of the
first contingents was largely an ex-
pertinent and that they might be fol-
lowed by more substantial numbers.
On the former occasion the Russians
arrived without arms, which were sup
piled by the French. The explanation
was given that it was easier to send
men out of Russia's surplus to the
western front than to forward arms
and ammunition to the east
