n.a\- ' • oxpr’ded in th<- ai:;umn of 1904.
This is tin- first prospe-tive departure

T’m purchus : ng power of the Russian
mass’s is so low that the textile interests
tare th’ ■ at* n d with ruin, notably those
hi the St. Pt-; quarter. ’fin- du
ties on flnisht 1 goods are suffieientiy high
to exclude foreign < oinpotition, but the
i high prices cannot be maintained, owing
to inability of the masses to pay them.

: RUSSIA IS THIRD AND JAPAN SEVENTH
AMONG THE WORLD'S NAVAL POWERS
v c —j USSIA ranks third among the naval powers cf the world.
® j X Japan is seventh.
o It is believed, however, that Japanese strength on the sea
® is not so greatly inferior to that of Russia, because th? Asiatic is
e land empire navy is practically new and equipped t ; 'i. modern ar
q inament, while Russia's list of fighting errs. contain.- many old
» vessels which would be of little use in a sea fighc -f the present
h day. It is also remembered that the Japanese have proved their met
c tie. In the war with China they swept the seas with ease. Including
| battle ships, armored cruisers, protected cruisers and torpedo c as-,
* the number and displacement of ships in the seven leading- navies
’ of the world follow:
