MAtSEILLES. FRANCE. April 25.-
Tho second installment OF The Russian
contingent for France landed here to-
day, after land and sea journey OF
approximately 1880 miles from Mos
COW to Port Dalny, Manchura. overland
AMI thence by water transport
The total number of Russian troops
now landed. supplied with French rifles
and sent to camp To prepare to servo
at the French front. IL estimated at
less than 10000.

The voyage OF the Russians consti-
tutcs a record in military transport
history for distance and diversity OF
route. Tho soldiers were concentrated
in Moscow under the supervision Of
General Lochwitzky, who landed with
the first contingent on last THURSDAY.
and at Moscow entrained for transpor.
ta,ion by the Trans-Siber.an Railway.
across nearly $500 miles OF country to
Port Dany, near Port Arthur. whence
they were 70 start on a sea Journey OF
about 10000 miles.
From Dalny they followed the

They then made their way BY Alden

Marseilies was as straight one as
precautionary measures against sub
marines would admit.
ARRIVAL OF RUSSIANS
SURPRISE no PEOPLE
The arrival Of the Russians was q
great surprise TO the public in France,
although they were expected by the
authorities. Count Locherwitz. in COM
mand, told the Associated Press CORE
spondcnt that two attempts were made
by the Germans TO attack the ships
while at sea. The first was made near
Shanghai. but failed. it was said,
owing TO the nonarrival OF the German
heavy gun ammunition. The second
was planned to take place near Singa-
pore. but the Russians were warned by
:, wireless from the British admiral In
the Straits and changed their itinerary.
An interesting feature OF the con-
ungcnt is tho fact that II arrives with
out arms, or, indeed. military equip
mcnt Of any kind. thus proving that
the French are in n position TO supply
them what they need.
The sending OF Russian contingent
10 France is more than demonstra-
tion Of friendship, as II is officially. and
quite truly. declared 10 be. Its ulti-
mate object is 20 try out the question
Of the military aid 10 the French. The
war. il Is believed in all countries, will
be decided on the western front. so it
is probable that the soldiers now land
