disembarked at Marselles can be dis
counted to a certain extent, the move
ment nevertheless has great deal of
significance as bearing on the prospects
of the war on the western front. A
large number of transports would be re-
quired to transport an army--an army
such as the term has come to mean in
this European war-through the round.
about course from Archangel, through
the White sea, the Arctic ocean, the At
lantic ocean and finally into the Medi-
terranean sea. Nothing short of fleet
of 20 transports would be required to
carry such an army; and it is not prob
able that any feet of that size landed
their forces at Marseilles on Thursday
April 20. However, it is to be expected
that the arrival of this initial force of
Russians is but the forerunner of other
to the entente allies strength
on the western front from the vast hui
man resources of the cars empire. Rus
sia has millions Of reserves and has little
to use them to advantage
because of the inability to keep up in
the matter of providing armament and
munitions. On the other hand, Great |
Britain and France are rather restricted
IS TO human units for conducting war
put they do have fairly adequate sources
IF supply in armament and munitions.
Il. therefore, Russia is able TO spare 100,
400, or 100000 men from her own opera
lions on three great war fronts, they
an be turned to powerful advantage by
Great Britain and France in resistance
o the inroads of the Germans in France
md Belgium. And, too. placed under Il
leadership Of the veteran and trained
leads of the British and French armies
IN the western front, these Russian
orces ought to be able to give a splendid
ccount of themselves. A drawback 70
he Russian soldier heretofore. il we may /
axe the expressions Of military experts ,
o be accurate, has been the lack Of fully &,
fTieient leadership. The men have been /
Wiling to fight but haven't been most !
apably led. On the western front they .
i'll be accorded capable leadership :

THE RUSSIAN SUCCESS.

The Russian army of the Caucasus has
been making steady, if slow, progress in
its conquest of territory in Asiatic Tur-
key, the most notable recent result being
the capture of the city of Trebizond on
the coast of the Black sea and reckoned
as one of the strongest positions of the
Turks in that section of the loose jointed
nation. This capture following the seiz-
ure of Erzerum, another strong position,
several weeks ago, places the Russian in
vading army considerably in the ascend
ancy, with the Turks reduced to a de-
fensive position and driven back CON
stantly. But in spite of these important
victories, this Russian army has as yet
merely entered Turkish territory, the
cities of Erzerum and Trebizond being
located but comparatively short dis
lance beyond the southern border of Rus
STA herself. The line OF invasion has
been in general westerly direction to-
ward the city of Constantinople, but
Constantinople lies at the far western
end of Asiatic Turkey and 575 miles
away from the city of Trebizond, with
mountain ranges traversing much Of the
region lying between the two cities.
Therefore, it will be seen that Russia's
task of approaching Constantinople from
the east, if such was the original plan of
this section of the nations military
forces, is but just started; the bulk OF
the difficulty lies ahead. It is TO be
doubted whether this army would be
able to approach Constantinople from
the east and hope TO accomplish any use
ful purpose because the army would be /
50 far removed from its own base and 4
connected by a thinly protected line.
