NOTHING Is more natural than the circumstance that war should be
the outcome of the existing crisis; yet, equally, nothing is less
certain. If the area of hostilities were not confined to the Far
East, and the Power confronting Japan were any other than Russia,
the outbreak of war might be predicted positively. But with Russia,
consideration of the strategic qualities of her position in
Manchuria must exercise a paramount influence upon her movements.
To those who are not close students of military history, as well as
to those who do not possess an extensive knowledge of the
situation, the position in which Russia is placed equally affords
the keenest interest. Certainly in the annals of military history,
excluding the march of Napoleon upon Moscow, there is no war which
may be said to have developed a parallel to the task which besets
Russia in Manchuria and Korea. Her position at sea, moreover, is no
better than that which she holds on land. Upon land, a single line
of railway traversing the heart of an enemy's country terminates at
Port Arthur.
