Japanese Fleet to Oppose Russia's
Encroachments in the Orient.

London, Dec. 20. A special dispatch
from Shanghai says: 1T is reported
that the Japanese fleet OF 20 warshlps
is waiting near Goto Island, outside OF
Nagasaki, fully equipped for war and
only awaiting instructions. This in
cludes the Yashima and Full, two OF
the finest vessels in the japanese
navy, and the Chen Yuen, captured
from China. The Japanese fleet, it is
understood, is acting in close touch
with the British squadron under Vice
Admiral Sir Alexander Butler. Japan
will certainly oppose permanent Rus
sian occupation Of Port Arthur The
sudden dissolution of the Japanese diet
was owing to the war spirit. 1t is ex-
peoted that the Jap lnese fleet will at
tempt to prevent the landing of rein
forcements from Odessa for the protec-
tion of the Russian transatlantic
railway in MaichHria."
