HISTORY ADD GEOGRAPHY OF I
THE SCENE OF LAND WARFARE
London, Fob. 19. British mili
tary experts many of whom have
an Intimate geographical acquaint
ance with the Far East, are busy
busy figuring out the probable land
moves ot Russia and Japan on the
war chess hoard and speculating as
to the proliable location of Impend
ing conflicts. In the war with China
Japan was nblo to penetrate Into the
very heart of Manchuria with an
army of 100,000 men. but In the
present conflict, with Manchuria
fairly covered with Russian troops,
the conditions are radically differ
ent. With the Japanese troops concen
trated In Korea and the Russian in
Manchuria It would seem likely that
the clash might come near the
boundary separating the two provin
ces, Then, again, the Russian war
authorities might decide that they
wero not sufficiently strong to risk
a decisive engagement where Japan
manifestly possesses distinct id
vantages In being located near her
base of supplies. In this event the
scene of hostilities would probably
be transferred further north, pos
sibly to the northern limits of Man
churia or In the vicinity of the Amur
river, which In the past has been the
scene of many fights between the
Russians and the Chinese.
The Amur river and the Argun,
its chief headwater, from the boun
dary between the two Asiatic em
pires for' nearly 2,000 miles, nil but

the upper reaches or which are nav
igable. Aggressions Upon China.
The earliest Russian advance
across Asia to the Pacific did not
follow this attractive route, for the
Chlneso forbade, and wore strong
enough to enforce their will. In
stead the Russians swept north
ward and eastward" as the river
turned south, reaching the ocean on
the shore of the bleak sea of Okho
tsk. It was not uptil 1868 that Mura
viev by his daring and diplomacy
gained the Amur province and the
left bank of the river from China,
And two years later the Assuri pro
vince feel Into Russian hands, with
the port of Vladlvlstok, right at the
Korean frontier.
The great provinces Just to the
north nnd east of Manchuria there
fore have been Russian hut 40 years
nnd prior to that time wero virtual
ly parts of Manchuria. Russia pos
sesses a number of strongholds in
this locality and the names of these
are likely to figure prominently in
the war dispatches from the Far
East as soon as the land movements
of the contending powers aro well
under way.
Aigun until recently was the
Chinese outpost from which the
Russians were watched. It Is a city
of several thousand inhabitants, and
a military post rather than a trading
point. The scene of battles and
treaties In earlier Ttusso-Chineso
wars, It has figured prominently In
history. It is about 20 miles down
stream from Sakhalin. A Chlneso
telegraph lino extends north through
Manchuria to Aigun and thenco to
Sakhalin which is the terminus.
First City of Siberia.
Further north Is Blagovechensk,
the finest and most modern city of
Siberia except Vladivostok. Found
ed by the Russians when the Chi'
neso yielded the Amur In 1858, it
has been an Important military post
from the first The growth of traf
fic on the Amur and the remarkable
gold discoveries up the Zela, which
flows Into the Amur from the north
at Blagovechensk, have made It a
city ot more than 50,000 Inhabitants,
with a modern opera nous eand ho
tels, wide streets lined with excel
lent brick buildings, and stores In
which are sold European fabrics and
American canned meats, fruits and
vegetables. Tho garrison at all
times numbers several thousand
Cossacks, and In the present war
tho city Is likely to bo made an Im
portant baso of operation.
When, In 1898, It became known
that Russia had obtained the privi
lege of carrying the great Siberian
railway across Manchuria Instead if
following the northern curve of tho
Amur, this fact coupled with the
leasing of Port Arthur nnd Talllen
Wnn gave notice to the world that
Manchuria had becomo virtually a
Russian province. The treaty car
ried with It the right to "police" tho
lino with such forces as should bo
needed to guard It, Russia to bo the
Judgo of necessity. Acting under
that privilege Cossacks by tho thou
sands hnvo been poured into the
province. At the same time tho
Port Arthur branch of tho railway
has been rushed to completion. It
is along this Bpur of tho lino that
some Important military develop
menis may bo looked Tor shortly.
Besides making a great strong
hold of Port Arthur, the southern
terminus of tho road, tho Russians
have strongly entrenched sthem
selves at Mukden, n point not quite
half way from Port Arthur to the
Junction with the main line at Har
bin. Other important fortified
places aro Now Tsurulthaltul, where
the lino crosses from Siberia into
Manchuria, nnd at Onon, where it
urnncnes from tlio Siberian rail
way.

FEARS UNCLE SAM WILL
BUY DANISH ISLAND
Looks In Distrust on Movement of
the Unitdd States to Acquire St.
Pierre and Mlquelon, In the St
Lawrqnce River Thinks This
Country Also Covets Greenland,
Our Canadian friends continue to
be somewhat alarmed about thu
French Islnnds of St. Pierre nnd
Mlquelon nnd the Danish Island of
Greenland.
They fear that Franco will sell to
the United States the two little sen
tlnel rocks of tho Gulf of St. Law'
renco and that ono of these days
wo shall buy Greenland from Den'
mark, thus getting control of the en
trance to Hudson's bay. So they say
tho Canadians must establish a sort
of little Monroe doctrlno of their
own to the effect that If the little
Islands or thu big ono ever chnngo
hands it must be to come into Can
ada's possession.
The chief defect of this doctrlno
will bo that It will- conflict with the
original Monroe doctrlno which haH
row been maintained intact for
some SO years. Howover much Can
adians may refer to themselves ris a
nation with a big N the fact remains
that they are only part of tho Brit
ish emplro. Now the Monroe doc
trine opposes thu transfer of any
American territory from ono Euro
pean power to tho other not In ho
niuny words, but In effect and inter
pretation.
Thus, so long as wo stand for thu
Mourou doctrine, thu French uud
Danish possessions will have to fly
tho flags they ily now, unless they
bo replaced by tho Stars nnd
Stripes. To acquire St, Plorru nnd
Mlquelon would do us little good
and would deeply offend the Cana
dians, who would conslilor thnt wo
took tlicm only to menace Cnundn.
But Greenland Is different. Out
side of the Ice cap of that country
there Is said to bo about 10,000
square miles of good country and
the mineral resources may bo great.
An expanding nation of more titan
80,000,000 people may vury properly
require such a source of raw mater
ial In its busincBH.

A few months ago the sou of n rail

influence given u position of some Im

to the men under Id in always made use
of the longest, most uuusiul words.
This habl' led to some rather expen

before the general manager, ho wrote
tho young ofilclul thu following letter:
"In promulgating your esoteric cogl.

flclal sentimentalities and amicable phil
osophical or psychological observations
beware of plutltudlnous ponderosity,
Let your conversational communication
possess a clurlfled conciseness, u com

cogency. Eschew all conglomeration of
flatulent garrulity, Jejune babblement
and asinine affectation. Iit your ex

Sedulously avoid all polysyllabic pro

In other words, talk plainly, briefly,
