Russia and Japan Hava tha Moat Par* foot Sac rat garvieas. The German imperial parliament Sontinuea to rote every year a min im am turn of £600,000 as wapy money,” and the British parliament votes for her secret service every .year anything from £20,000 to £50,- 000. The same thing applies to oth er nations. The vote for the mili tary secret service averages in France £180,000 a year, but a large portion of the money placed under the heading of “dépenses secretes” isipent under the guise of “mis sions.” Large sums are also spent by Austria in this way. As for Russia, it is impossible to give any estimate. What the empire of the ciar spends on its secret service is unknown, for no accounts of any kind whatever are open to the public. But as the system is the most perfect of all the secret serv ices in the world, excepting that of Japan, the cost must be very large indeed. The Japanese devote to their secret servioe all the patience for which the oriental is famous, hut their “skill and cunning” in finding out the secrets of other na tions means a heavy drain on their public exchequer. Taking the European powers by themselves, it is roughly computed that for “spying purposes” they spend between them each year no less a sum than £2,000,000. Among the European powers the Bussian secret service is probably the finest, but it embraces many thousands of people who are mere ly volunteers in the art of giving away official secrets. In France and Germany the secret service is sup ported by systematic investigation that cannot be said to rely in any material way upon casual assistance. In England the service is controlled to a great extent bv the intelligence divisions of the admiralty ana the war office, but such a system of pri vate inquiry has not been elevated in Great Britain to the exact science that it has reached, say, in Russia or Japan.—Pall Mall Gasette. i . . ... — — Burk* and Hi* AaMoiatM.
