But. There is so much to be

It's very restricted accommodation.

The. Mods brought down by the

7:48

At the same time, the space

from junks or tenders. In

8:16

relation to the requirement of the

nearly large enough. When.

Cruises are taking in

To. The needs of the Navy. Port.

9:00

Arthur is happy in the possession

9:02

of all those objects which to

9:07

component parts of it succeeds.

Stammer Anchorage. In the hub, a

9:31

proper. When. The

9:33

dredging works in the harbor guys

9:35

have been completed. It

9:37

is hoped that I mean type

9:40

of for fans. Will. have

9:42

been obtained. This.

9:45

Systematic deepening of the harbor,

9:47

Will. Give to the slate

9:49

a service anchorage considerably in

9:52

excess of one square mile.

9:55

But. Until the work has been

9:57

executed, the value of Port

9:59

Arthur. As. A satisfactory

10:01

naval base. Is.

10:04

Infinitely less than the press

10:06

stage, which it enjoys as

10:08

an impregnable position. Port.

10:11

Arthur possesses a small parade

10:14

ground. Rifle. Range.

10:16

And. Artillery practice ground.

10:20

Til. Pado station and

10:22

training reservation. Which.

10:24

Will be enlarged when the base or

10:26

I've been down. There.

10:29

Is a flash light station

10:31

and various schools of instruction.

10:34

Torpedo, Gunnery.

10:36

To. Like our say. While.

10:39

The arsenals and workshops which are

10:41

built around the naval base and.

10:44

And. Within the Navy yards a

10:46

very thoroughly equipped. These

10:48

effects, however, Were. Mainly

10:51

taken over by Russia when

10:53

she seized Port Arthur. Their.

10:56

Existence at the present moments

10:58

tends to shire how impossible

11:00

it is to underestimate the

11:03

advantages. Which. Russia derives

11:05

from the possession of this

11:07

part. And. How

11:09

far Reaching out the consequences

11:11

of the months responder. Which.

11:14

Lord Salisbury committed. When he

11:16

acquiesce in, it's He separation.

11:20

Apart. From the defenses

11:22

Russia hitherto. Has

11:24

not added much to Port Arthur.

11:27

For. The main part the troops

11:29

have been quoted in the old

11:32

Chinese houses. Are. In the

11:34

form a barracks on the Chinese troops.

11:37

Affairs. Having been somewhat neglect

11:39

ads in the view of the

11:41

prior claim. Which. The Offenses

11:44

Hounds. Now.

11:46

However, Sign. Barracks

11:48

are in cause of construction. And.

11:51

If there is no war, It.

11:53

Is anticipated that ample accommodation will

11:55

be ready soon upon. The shows

11:58

have some of the by. And.

12:01

On the hills. The. Day

12:03

fences are indeed magnificence. Very.

12:06

Few of the thoughts which were

12:08

in existence cheering the time of

12:10

the Chinese were. Since.

12:13

The Russian government's and said

12:16

upon possession. The. Work

12:18

of extending the perimeter of the

12:20

defenses. As well as

12:22

strengthening the fortifications, Has

12:25

been a continuous labor. It

12:28

is quite clear. That. The

12:30

authorities are determined upon no

12:32

half measures. They

12:35

have gains port answer. And.

12:37

They proposed to cape it. Upon

12:40

the cliffs rising immediately from

12:42

the right of the harbor

12:44

entrance. There. Is a

12:46

most powerful position. Formed.

12:49

I believe. Of. A

12:51

battery of six twenty one and

12:53

crop guns. Which. Was

12:55

further supported by i fought placed

12:58

a few say about the harbor.

13:01

And swiping it's immediate France

13:03

containing eight ten inch. Had.

13:07

The corresponding elevations upon

13:09

the opposite headlands. There

13:11

were two similar thoughts

13:13

with identical batteries. A.

13:16

While the mine fields within the

13:18

harbor a controlled from these two

13:20

law positions. Following.

13:23

The hills to the south and

13:25

north. There. Are other

13:27

thoughts. One. In particular

13:29

have cried size. Is.

13:31

Placed upon the extreme crest of

13:34

the range. And. Towering

13:36

above all else. Sweeps.

13:39

The say and approaches to the

13:41

hombres had great distances. It.

13:44

Is impossible to detect the character

13:46

of these guns. That.

13:48

From their position and the extent

13:50

of the thoughts and the nature

13:53

of the pod which they are

13:55

intended to fail. At.

13:57

Is improbable that they can be

13:59

less than. Twenty seven Tongans,

14:02

Discharging. Shells have about five

14:04

hundred pounds. Of course

14:07

I fired for the command of

14:09

the say must proceed any land

14:11

operations. And. Japan is

14:13

within fifteen hours stay most her

14:16

son. Already. I

14:18

Japanese garrison town. And.

14:20

Amazon Power. The.

14:23

Ports to which Russia and Japan

14:25

make a call claim. The

14:28

stride separating Japan from Korea

14:30

is two hundred miles broad.

14:33

While. Russia near as base at

14:36

Port Arthur. Is. Nine

14:38

hundred miles away on one

14:40

hand. And. Vladivostok is

14:42

tall hundred miles away. On

14:44

the other. Had.

14:47

Follows their saw that in

14:49

Korea and not in Manchuria.

14:52

The. Troops of the Japanese army would

14:54

be landed. Once.

14:56

Established in Korea. And.

14:58

Japan would be able to dispute

15:01

the supremacy of the say on

15:03

equal terms. In. This

15:05

respect the possession by the

15:07

Japanese have numerous top aide

15:09

our craft. Can. Says

15:12

a distinct advantage upon them.

15:14

Since. It will be within

15:16

their power to utilize their services.

15:19

If. The Russian flights were two

15:22

attempts to check the movement. The.

15:25

Absence of any facilities for

15:28

repairing damage is max had

15:30

certain. Who. So far

15:32

as possible the Russian flights will

15:34

have a any serious engagements. He.

15:38

Had would be difficult to improve

15:40

upon the position of Japan in

15:42

this respect. Had

15:45

Yokosuka. From. Which place

15:47

say? Large number of Cruz's has

15:49

been launched. There

15:51

is a very extensive building

15:53

yards. And Japan

15:56

also possesses suitable dogs for

15:58

large ships at. You're.

16:00

And. Nagasaki. He.

16:03

Know. She. Has at

16:06

her immediate disposal some half

16:08

a dozen dunks. Four.

16:10

Hundred satan length all mall.

16:13

And. A very skillful army

16:15

of working mechanisms and worth

16:18

in general. Port.

16:20

Arthur must be regarded for

16:22

practical purposes. The. Naval

16:24

Base of Russia in the

16:26

forest in the events of

16:28

a cold weather campaign. Vladivostok.

16:32

Is too far removed from the

16:35

range of probable utility. At.

16:37

This port, however, Russia.

16:40

Has constructed one launch dry

16:42

dock. One. Floating Dog

16:45

Three hundred and one, Say long?

16:48

And. A second dry dog has been

16:50

laid down. Against.

16:53

These two solitary and

16:55

isolated senses. Japan.

16:57

Possesses naval bases,

17:00

arsenals, And. Dogs

17:02

and the following points on her

17:04

coast. The squadrons

17:06

which Japan and Russia will be

17:08

able to employ in this war.

17:11

Are very some medical. And

17:14

tearing the past few months,

17:16

H Power has made strenuous

17:18

efforts to increase the strength

17:20

of it's flights. In

17:23

the exigencies of active service,

17:25

it happens that the Russian

17:27

soldier most far edge for

17:29

himself. Under any

17:31

circumstances, however, Hey.

17:33

sustains himself on very

17:35

little nourishment, and realize

17:38

in a great measure upon when

17:40

he can find. The

17:42

Russian cavalry is armed

17:45

with sword, rifle, and

bayonet. The. Latter

17:49

17:51

when the weapon itself is

the Japanese. If. The

18:54

fighting was confined to the say.

18:57

At the same time, however, It.

19:00

Should be remembered that the Russian

of course, the striking example

authored by the Japanese. In

22:17

not lost upon the Chinese.

22:20

These things are a call today

25:28

Against to this accumulation it

25:31

is said. That the

25:33

financial position of Japan is most

25:35

favorable. There is

25:37

I believe a spacey reserve

25:39

in the Central bank. Which.

25:42

Amounts to one hundred and

25:44

thirteen million yen. Class:

Forty million Yen in London.

Moreover, the banks know it's

to support the veer that war

26:37

Bluff is a component part

of Russian diplomacy. And

26:42

there is ground for believing that

26:44

the intentions of Russia in the

Far East. A By

Apply I'm a say always

27:02

covers the developments of it's

27:04

plans by preparing to demonstrates

27:06

in a contrary interaction. And

27:09

not the present time. Her

27:11

occupation of Korean territory is

27:13

lit allows than the screen.

27:16

Behind which she proposes to

27:19

secure her hauled upon Manchuria.

27:22

Nothing. Short of whoa, whoa

27:24

cause her to retire from her

27:27

position in Manchuria. That.

27:29

While Korean territory is of

27:31

little value to the Russian

27:33

protectorate, Whatever. The

27:35

compromise which may be affected

27:38

between Japan and Russia. She.

27:41

May be expected to make a

27:43

determined efforts to dominate the law

27:45

27:48

Phoenix. Curious. As it

27:50

may same. The. Estuary of

28:05

She. Would gain at once that

28:07

special position upon the frontiers of

28:09

Korea. Which. Is

28:12

the desire of Japan to frustrate.

28:15

In this Japan can only rely

28:18

upon the show. It shifts of

28:20

diplomacy. And although the

28:22

Russian occupation of the on

28:27

Development of and town upon the

Seems therefore as inevitable that

to her lot. And.

28:45

Town lies within Manchurian

fact that Russia. Neither.

Russia. Therefore, cannot well afford

to ignore the consequences of her

The same time can she be

powerless to prevent either the

steady spread of Japanese influence. She.

35:06

Possesses neither army or navy

which can be poets to

she is in that position in

which a country is place to

unable to raise his voice upon
