SIGNALLING IN WAR.:
JAPANESE METHODI
The lesson which the Japanese bave taught the Russians on the plains of Manchuria, and incidentally the entire world, is, says Mr. M.C Sullivan, writing in Cassier's Magarins, that the science of war has become so exact and Its Instruments of execution so terrible that in. dividual or national heroism, when pitted agalast long-range rifles and cannon, smokeless powder, high explosives, and electrical methods of communication, monipulated by men of skill and ingenuity, can no longer be depended upon In determining the result of war. Electricity has never before played so important a part in warfare as it does with the Japanese. ``.
Every general of brigade in the field is con nected by wire with blu`division commander, and the generals of division are in touch by telegraph or telephone with the corps comman, ders. The necessity of sending aldes in every direction with dispatches and reports is a thing of the past. Through the telephone system the Commander-in-Chief can communicate with all his subordinates, and where two or more of these subordinates are engaged in the same movement, they can keep in touch with one
another and develop the plan is absolute
unison. There is something almost humorons In the idea of the commander of regiment call ing up by telephone a brother officer command- ing another regiment some wild night among the Manchurian hills and asking him if he is ready for some desperate charge, just as ona might ask a friend to meet him at supper after the theatre; but where victory or death hang in the balance, the knowledge that the other man is roady is worth much. By thus applying modern methods of electrical communication, the effective utrength of the Japanese Army in the field is much greater than its size would indicate. The work of their signal chrps is largely the work of the electrical
engineer. Visual signals for communication in the field, except in isolated instances, have been relegated to secondary place.
The Japanese, with their natural ability for adaptation and development, would not tolerate any method of communication but that which would bring the most distant autpost of Man. churia within a few minutes of Tokio, and enable the Mikada to maintain touch with his troops. The result has been seen all through the present war with Russia in the evolution of the Japanese Army, which in the complete abbor- dination of its often widely separated parts, and the absolute and instant control exercised by Y the commander over the whole field of opera tions, shows a mechanical accuracy of move ment and direction that seems either instinctive or wonderfully fortunate. In all their opera- tions, the lines of communication follow the movements of the troops. Thus, the Japanese officers, whether in camp or on the firing line, are in instantaneous touch with every portion of their commands, both night and day, without regard to distance, weather, or topographical conditions, The extraordinary strategical com- binations which they have made against the Russian Army are the greatest military marvels of modern times, whose vaunted aggressiveness and might made it a terror to the world,
NAVAL, MOVEMENTS.
ACCORDING TO "PUNCIL
Saigon, April 28-A torpedo-boat destroyer is reported to have been seen by the P. and O. liner Imallar, steaming in a north-easterly direction 4,500 miles from Singapore. Her nationality is unknown, but the port has caused considerable excitement. The captain of the P. and O.. states shortly afterward he saw several empty packing-cases hull-down on the horizom.
Paris, April 29,-A telegram from New York states that three warships have been seen off Batavia. The correspondent believes them to be part of the Third Baltic Squadron under Amiral Nebogatoff, but this can hardly be the base, as the squadron in question was known to be at Jibull only yesterday. However, we give the repart for what it is worth.
