General Llnevltcb Continues His
Retirement to the North.
ST. PBTERSUURG Stung by the
wholcsalo criticism lately heaped up
on tho war office for its unprepared
ncss and Incapacity In providing tho
Mauchnrlan army with men, guns and
munitions, tho army orgnn lays bare
what has been done slnco tho opon
ing of hostilities giving tho exact fig
ures. From these It appears that up
to March 12, tho war ofilcp-had dis
patched 13,087 officer!, 7G1.4G7 men,
14C.40S horses, 1.521 guns and 310,321
tons of munitions nnd supplies to tho

strained tho Siberian railroad to Us
utmost capacity.
Tho army organ admits that tho
army in the far cast, when tho war
opened was hardly worth tho hamo
(no figures being given,, but It Is
known that the troops did not exceed
G0.000 men) defending this on tho
ground that Emperor Nlcholas'dcslrcd
to avoid war and thcreforo refrained
from sending reinforcements which
Biiroly with havo provoked It.
Tho criticism of tho war office's
failure to adequately supply PortAr
thur is met by tho statement that it
was provisioned for a garrison of
twelvo battalions, tho decision to put
thirty battalions there being taken so
la to that tho original calculations
could not bo remedied.
Whilo nffirmlng that tho quick-firing
guns nnd field guns of tho Rus
sians aro superior to those of tho Jap
anese, tho war ofilco explains that tho
mlsfortuno in tho insufficiency of tho
mountain guns was duo to the fact
that when tho war broko out Russia
was Just adopting a new pattern.
It la denied that tho war ottlco was
deceived In regard to tho available
strength of tho Japancso army or tho
organization of the Japancso resorves,
but tho army organ frankly admits
that tho talents of tho officers' nnd the
wonderful spirit of tho soldiers were
miscalculated.
Tho publication of this artlclo has
created a sensation nmong military

ing on Rearrangement.
WASHINGTON Tho president and
Secrotnry Taft are making every ef
fort to complcto tho rearrangement
of tho isthmian canal commission
previous to tho departuro of tho presi

possible that this cannot be accom
plished, as It Is necessary for a num
ber of communications to pass be
tween parties who must bo consulted
beforo tho new plan Is completed.
It has been decided that It will bo
necessary under tho law for tho presi
dent to appoint a commission consist
ing of seven members. Ho holds that
such a number would mako tho com
mission unwieldy, but as congress
failed to provide for a smaller com
mission, it Is held hy the attorney
genoral that tho commission of seven
members Is mandatory in tho presi
dent. RUSSIANS HALT TO REST.

his base for that purpose to Gesan.
Whllo the Manchurlnn railway Is em

of tho military experts aro of the
opinion that the Japanese may rclfcve
tho pressure upon General Llncvltch
and thus Induce him to concentrate
In the region between Santoupu and
Tlo Pass for another battle. But
throughout the campaign all tho prog
nostications of oxperts regarding the

and the government
Tho Russian retreat has now reach

four miles north of Tie Pass, where
It has temporarily halted. Tho army

from envy, hatred or malice, nor to
leavo any ono unpresentod for fear,
favor, affection, reward or hope of re
ward." The charge was delivered In a most
Impressive manner nnd was listened
to with deep lntorcst.
In charging tho grand Jury Judge
Humphrey said:
"This body stands between tho up
right and honest citizen nnd the ma
licious accuser. You are savers of
reputation?, as well as the body
through which tho honest accuser ob
tains Just inquiry.
"I call your attention particularly
to tho statute which prohibits and
fixes a penalty for combinations In re
straint of trndc, In the interstate com
raorco laws and their various
branches.
"Whllo you are not selected to try
the guilt or innocence of the accused,
In order to justify a true bill you will
have such evidence as, If unexplained
and uncontradicted, would satisfy
your minds of the guilt of the accused.
"You are not to disclose to any per
son or at any time the secrets of your
iellbcratlons. Reputation Is tho great
est earthly Inheritance.
"The mere fact that some person's
name Is beforo you as being accused
of crlmo would blacken reputation
even though you might not return a
true bill. No human being has n right
to know, and you nro not to disclose
to any human being, tho secrets of
your deliberations. All that shall
como to light shall come through the
return of Indictments, if Indictments
shall bo found."
