Tlio sympathies of our army officers tuny !>() with tho Japane < , but tlu ro in no iloubl that they avo "f (In: opinio;) that llussia will win in tlio war. Eight of tliem recently inado application t<? the Russian nn<l Jap* a lust! yo\eminents to be allowed to join Ibeir armi<R. Tbev have been advised that their applications have been taken under advisement, which means that I hoy will not I*: grunted. They baso their opinion Unit Russia will bo successful u'ainly upon Russia's superior strength and her I do^ed determination. Tin re is iiu ! doubt tint Russia can put into the field twice, perhaps three times uh many men uh Japan, ami the Kus sinus can stand .iefeat. Tlio belief is that tho Japanese will become discouraged if they meet with two or three setbacks. Of course Jaj>an has shown her superiority on the sea, ami she will coislinnn to bfi vietorinna llmr? hut I the war will not ho fought out on the sea. It will l>e fought mainly in Mnnchuri i, and may last two years. r ' 1 od, the opinion amoni? our army .cu is tliat it will last fully two yeaiH, i.nd that tho Russians will oventuaiy chase the Japaneno out of Manchuria and down into Korea, whero tho war will probabiy be finished, the Koroons likely siding with the Russians. Of coiirso tho Russians nro a long way from their haso of supplies, but it is mud thuy lmvo meat and Hour sufficient for a long timo in Manchuria and ilint tho railroad will l?c kept open for tho transportation of troops and munitions of war. 'J'ho Japanese will hs'V" to transport their supplies to .Manchurk*. hy way <>f the sea, and so they nro not much hotter <.IV than the; Russians ill that respect.
