Russia and Japan Facing War

LIEUTENANT ROMANOFF, of the Imperial Russian navy, arrived at Chicago, January 18, and in an interview said: “War between Russia and Japan is looked for as inevitable by the naval officers of those countries who have been nearest the probable scene of future operations. Just how soon such a war may begin, it is difficult to say, but events little short of miraculous must occur to avert it. The Japanese are building war-ships as rapidly as possible, in anticipation of the outbreak of hostilities, and Russia is strengthening her navy as fast as she can. European war will follow the outbreak of hostilities between Russia and Japan.”
