Captain Owen Wheeler, writing in The King, GENERAL DRAPERS, HIGH-CLASS DRESSMAKERS, AND states: We may take it for granted that nowhere--not oven in Japan-have the move- ments of Hassis in the Far East boon followed with closer and more intelligent interest than in India. There are quarters very high quarters in which the possibility of a Russian attack on India through China has for a long time past been recognised, and to a certain extent provided against-at any rate, so far as tho collection and compilation of the right kind of military intelligence is concerned. But as loug as Russia's only footing in the Far East was comprised in Vladivostook, which for months in the year was useles na a naval base of setivo operations, India would possess its soul in patience. Now all that has changed, and there is no sense in blinking the fact that Russia's presence at Port Arthur la not only o menace to our commercial supremacy in China, but a fact which India must take seriously into af her system account in
arranging sulf-defence. For Indis the obvious rite is that of the strong maa armed, and not only armed, but ovorlastingly on the qui are for sudden trouble in surprising shapes, Prior to the operations in 1990 there was a good deal of objectioàable glamour about the Russian Army in the minds of our native soldiers, on the oma ignotum pro magnikco principle. Intercourse with the Russian troops during the International advance to the' relief of Peking disabused Jack Sepoy of any notion that the Russian soldier was a personage of extraordinary military merit, and, if the Slav ever succeeds in crossing our Indian borders, he will have no fanciful reputation to help kim, For a long time this Russian menace hure revod na a foint to design, upoo Constantinople; now it may bo intended chiefly to mask the establish- ment of Russian influence upon a permanent basis in China. In sithor eve the strategy has bean nicely adapted to the end in view, Russia knows wall the advantage which the power of waking these feints upon India gives her, and esthatpower with amazing skill.
