1AMH6ATA DISCUSSES THE mm RUSSIA Japanese Field Marshal Admits His Country Must Fight Against Odds.

REVIEW OF SITUATION

CHICAGO. April 2. A special cable from a Chicago News staff correspondent from Tokio says: "Field Marshal Yamagata, wbj. after the Emperor, is first in commind of the Japanese forces, and was the ori'nal organizer of the Japanese army, said that the Japanese army has to fight odds of 2 to 1, and that the clash may come at the Yalu river. The marshal said: Russian troops haye been coming south for a long time and It 13 evident that a conflict raust result. As matters have turned out it would have, been better if the war had occurred when the Russians first occupied Manchuria, because ever since they have been strengthening their position in that province. Our statesmen, however, wished to preserve peace as long as possible. It Is difficult to say where the first big land battle will take place. The Russians seem to be in force between LlaoYang and Kaiping on the Manchurian railroad. They may cross the mountains and possibly meet us at the Yalu. " 'Bridges and roads north of Anju have been destroyed by the Russian troops and therefore the Japanese advance will be difficult. No doubt if the Russians destroy the Manchurian railroad it may not be difficult to repair it for the use of the Japanese troops. We might even replace old

material with new; but the difficulty Is to reach the railroad. Five months ago the Russian generals planned to put SöO.Oih) men In the field. They must have contemplated supplying them with ammunition and food. The rivers that empty into the Arctic run near Lake Baikal. They are navigable in summer and can be used for transportation. The Russians in this way need not rely entirely on the railroad. Large supplies of

American flour have been going to Vladivo

stok for years and we must expect to meet

a well-equipped and well-nourished army of 350.OD0.

'It is a difficult matter to fight a nation

with 3,000.000 soldiers. We have to lay our plans very carefully. There is no doubt the Cossack cavalry will worry the Japanese army which was originally intended for home defense in the mountainous country and is mainly composed of infantry.

We must work at the material we possess. When the Japanese army is compared with other armies It must be remembered that it only has been lately organized. I had no

small share in its organization and therefore I see its faults and try to improve it, but neVer find that it reaches my ideal.' "

Precautionary Measures Taken to Prevent Another Outbreak at Kishintff.

WORK OF THE OFFICIALS

ST. PETERSBURG, April 2.-Although the authorities do not believe there is danger of the recurrence of the anti-Jewish riots of last year, reports of impending trouble circulated at Odessa, Kleff, Klshineff and other centers where there is a large Jewish population, have somewhat alarmed the Jews and Minister of the Interior Von Plehvne has adopted most rigorous precautionary measures. Not oily have the newspapers been warned, under threat of severe penalty, against the publication of articles which might inflame race hatred, but the civil and military authorities in the districts which might be affected have issued warnings threatening offenders with heavy fines and imprisonment. Governor Ussourouso.T, of Kishineff, and Governor KaUlbars, of Odessa, are strong capable men. in whom the government reposes Implicit confidence. Such an influential JewUh organ as the Novosti denounces as foul slander the statement that .the Jews are not loyally supporting the government. . As evidence of the attitude of the Jews reference is made by the paper to the great number of Hebrew physicians who have answered the call of their country and gone to the front. The statements spread f.broad that the families of such physicians are not allowed to remain In the citie3 and are ostracized after the departure of their husbands are officially denied.
