STORY OF THE RUSSOJAPANESE WAR.
By Kuropatkin.
New York, September 3. McClure’s Magazine, a popular monthly published in New York, publishes General Kuropatkin’s memoirs of the Russo-Japanese war. The memoirs show that, through Bezobrazoff’s influence, the Czar invested two million roubles in the Yalu timber concession. The Grand Dukes and favoured nobles also made heavy investments. Bezobrazoff had enormpus influence with the Czar and '^^Dowager-Empress. Kuropatkin warned the Czar that the timber concession and Bezobrazoff’s policy might cause war. He suggested Russia’s
withdrawal from Manchuria, and
the handing over of Port Arthur and Kwautung to China ; but eight weeks later war opened in the Yala.
