DODGING MILITARY SERVICE. Many instances of the extraordinary known here and caused intelligent Rus- sians, from the Czar downward, to re- flect upon the reason for the marked difference between Japan and Russia in this respect. The young Russians who desired to evade militery service prac- ticed all sorts of cunning devices to | achieve their object. After the out- break of the war the Russian author- | ities refused all applications from Rus- | sian men for passes permitting them to leave the country, so that the fugitives from military service had to cross the frontier under various disguises and with false passports. Large numbers who had not the means to adopt these methods attempt- ed to walk across the boundaries to Pressia and Austria under the cover of vigilance guards. the eastern provinces of Prussia and Austria have published accounts of at least three dozen encounters between fugitives and Russian frontier guards, and In most cases the Russian troops simply shot down those who were try- ing to reach German or Austrian ter- ritory. In one case a large party of fugitives from military service were on the point of crossing the Russo-German frontier near Wilhelmsbrueck, together of the Russian frontier ADVERTISEMENTS.

FINNS DRIVEN TO THE FBONT.. ‘While Russians themselves have been acting in this way, it is not surprising that Finns have shown still more re- luctance to go to the Far East to fight Russia’s battles. Finnish regiments stationed at Viborg and Sveaborg re- ceived orders to proceed to Manchuria, whereupon the men protested with vigor, declaring that nothing would induce them to go. Threats of punishment were of no avall and fiu- ally Russian regiments had to be brought from other garrison towns to drive the stubborn Finns to ‘the rail- way station by force. The Finnish troops were deprived of thelr arms and conveyed through the streets under military bands played lively Russian alrs in or- der to drown the noise of the Finns protests, shouted at the tops of their volces, against the treatment meted out to them. On arrival at the sta- tions, the Finns had literally to be thrown into the cars by main force and riotous scenes naturally ensued. Remarkable revelations of corrup- tion and mismanagement have been made in regard to the war supplies of all kinds for the use of the army at the front. The War Office ordered 1000 sacks of wheat from a Russian grain dealer at Odessa for the use of the troops and chance led to the dis- covery that one of the sacks contained an impure mixture. A detailed inves- tigation followed and it was proved that out of 1000 sacks no less than 950 contained small quantities of real wheat mixed with larger quantities of injurious adulterations of various klndz. Further investigations led to the discovery that a number of other grain dealers had perpetrated a sim- ilar swindle. Thousands of boots sup- plied for the troops turn out to have been made of brown paper, and huge quantities of tinned foods have been found unfit for consumption. Some of them were so poisonous that the reg- iments eating them would have been | decimated long before they had al chance of getting face to face wth the enemy in the field. shops should be closed and barricaded i before the arrival of any transport | train. In cases where this was done% the soldiers, disappointed in their | hopes of getting food in the towns, | rushed in wild disorder to the sur-| rounding villages and plundered thel cottages of the peasants to satisfy their | ravenous hunger. | At Sassevo, in the province of Tam- ‘l boff, a horde of 2200 half-starved sol- | dlers left a transport train, invaded | ions on sale at the stalls in the market The peasants, whose produce was thus stolen, resisted the onslaught of the troops and a flerce fight took place, in the course of which several | were killed and many wounded. In many other towns in European Russia the soldiers go about the streets beg- ging before they start for the front. If occurrences of this kind are possible | at the European end of the Trans-Si- berian Railway, it may be imagined in what a terrible plight the troops in Manchuria may be now or will be later | on in the campaign. CZAR DISMISSES GENERAL. Over and above these defects come | the serious blunders made in purely military matters. It has been found that many officers at the front are ab- solutely unfit to perform the duties of their positions, and General Kuropat- | kin’s first act on arriving at his head- quarters in Manchuria was to send home two colonels, Tschisch and Mon- ajeff by name, both of whom were in command of infantry regiments, and both of whom were quite incapable of{ Tans Are the Style For summer wear no leather has ever given better satisfacti the tans. are a chai look neat are easily y are what you want.
