believed that a fresh Japanesejirmy 7 which sailed from Japan in January has landed near Vladivostok and that the Japanese are now trying to envelope the Russian army and Invest Vladivostok This would

Gratifying to LONDON March 17 The prevailing opinion in military circles is that Rus sin has not bettered herself in the Near East by the recall of Kuropatkin Competent critics do not believe any other Russian general possesses Kuro patkins ability They consider that af rrethods he is better fitted than anyone else to continue with the Czars troops Throughout the war foreign military experts have consistently held Kuro patkins generalship blameless for the Russian defeats and have awarded him the highest praise for his ability In extricating the army from dangerous predicaments The opinion prevails that he Is being sacrificed for the sins of the bureaucracy Japan Is Pleased Through numerous conversations with Japanese diplomats during the war your correspondent knows that the Jap anese hold Kuropatkin in the greatest respect Many times when European military experts were that the Russian army would be surrounded or annihilated the Japanese diplomats expressed their skepticism When asked why they invariably replied as a sufficient answer That man Kuropatkin stands in our way From their own military standpoint the Japanese express satisfaction with Kuropatkins

Fresh Ja Believed to naveBeen Landed

LONDON March dispatch to the Evening Standard from itsSt Petersburgs correspondent says a fierce battle is proceeding northof Tieling

A dispatch to the Reuter Telegram Company from General Okusheadquarters announces that the pursuit of the Russians is being kept upwith the same vigor that has marked all the Japanese efforts to overtaketho enemy

An unconfirmed report has been here to the effect that theJapanese suceeecled in cutting off Kuropatkins retreat

Opinions are conflicting as to whether the Russian armya retreat steadily to the northward or will attempt to effect a junction withthe Russian forces at Vladivostok

It is believed that a fresh Japanesejirmy 7 which sailed from Japanin January has landed near Vladivostok and that the Japanese are nowtrying to envelope the Russian army and Invest Vladivostok

This would leave the Russians no alternative but capitulation annihilation

According to the St Petersburg correspondent of the Chronicle officials of the ministry of war say that the Russian army is not retiring toHarbin but tbKirln and Vladivostok

The Tokyo correspondent of the Telegraph declares that the Russiansare so shattered that the Japanese are now able to act independently

IJapaneseRecall 01 Kuropatkin

Gratifying toLONDON March 17 The prevailing

opinion in military circles is that Russin has not bettered herself in the NearEast by the recall of Kuropatkin

Competent critics do not believe anyother Russian general possesses Kuropatkins ability They consider that af

rrethods he is better fitted than anyoneelse to continue with the Czars troops

Throughout the war foreign militaryexperts have consistently held Kuropatkins generalship blameless for theRussian defeats and have awardedhim the highest praise for his abilityIn extricating the army from dangerouspredicaments The opinion prevailsthat he Is being sacrificed for the sinsof the bureaucracy

Japan Is PleasedThrough numerous conversations with

Japanese diplomats during the waryour correspondent knows that the Japanese hold Kuropatkin in the greatestrespect Many times when Europeanmilitary experts were thatthe Russian army would be surroundedor annihilated the Japanese diplomatsexpressed their skepticism Whenasked why they invariably replied as asufficient answer
