The number of regular clerks could be
materially reduced, especially by having
a few general clerks to serve wherever
tha state's business may require tempo

patch to the Post' dealing with the failure
of the. German plans says: , .
''Three weeks ago the Germans planned
to occupy rolnnd up to the Vistula, win
tering In Warsaw and Ivongorod. They
even brought 'reaping and threshing ma
chines with them to gather the Polish
Crops, and there were other Indications
of a prolonged stay. While establised on
the Vistula they were to assist Austria
to recover GaliU.
"Unfortunately the Russian command j
also has plans which he carries forward
with iron rigidity,, and K I. believed
that Russia ts preparing tt move on a
w.'de front Into Germany when tha lime
comes. This front has still a consider
able extent of German territory - to re
cover before It gets Into Una for this ad
vance. "Russia's present objective Is Dnnslg."
The correspondent comments on Rus
sian inventiveness as apptled to tha war.
Besides a bath train, which has already
been descr bed. an invention of Prince
Oldenburg lias been of inestimable ser
vice in the Red Cross. It is a great ves
sel, capable of holding 200 gallons of soup.
It Is easily and quickly moved and fur
nishes nourishment for 1.MQ men the
moment they are brought In from the
field and makes a wonderful difference
In the chances of life fop the badly
woundod. '
An inveniivenets of th; Russians Is
also displsyed In Improved 'sighting ap
pliances for Um guns, making the Rus
sian srilllery most deadly.,, These ap
pliances, add the correspondent, would
have been adopted by France, erccpt
that the matter of cost and time militated
against their Immediate use by the French
artillery.
