COMING JAPAN'S WAY
Vladivostok Fleet Put Out of Bust
ness by Kamimura.
Sunday Morning In Korean Sea .
Battle Was FouEht--One Russian
Cruiser Sunk and Others
Damaged.

Toxic, Aug. 15.-Flags are flying,
lanterns are glimmerinG and cries Of
"Banzai" are ringing in the streets Of
Toxic in honor Of the victory gained
at sea by Admiral Togo and Vice Ad-
miral Kamimura. Underneath the jol-
LITIGATION Of the populace lies feeling
Of deep satisfaction at the disposal Of
desperately serious problem Of the
war.
The Russian squadron which con-
fronted Admiral Togo refused battle.
1t was stronger than Admiral Togo's
squadron in battleships and armored
cruisers and had 1t elected to fight the
result might have altered the fortunes
of war. The strength OF the squadron
which opposed Admiral Togo COM
PEELED him to draw vessels from the
fleet under Vice Admiral Kamimura
and this left the japanese navy power
less to operate against the Russian
Vladivostok squadron and unable to
prevent the raids OF these vessels. The
raid conducted by the Vladivostok
squadron In July was extremely ex-
pensive to Japan and not only was re-
taliation tempting, but 1t was demand
ed by commercial interests. The navy,
however. grimly refused to make d.
version and stuck to Port Arthur. II
was confident that that harbor soon
would be untenable for the Russian
.warships. that it would eventually get
a fair fight on the open sea away from
the Russian land batteries and that the
Japanese would win. These calcula-
tions Of the navy were correct and the
Russians, with the chances evened,
have been honelessly defeated
Vice Admiral Kamimura. after
months of weary and patient waiting,
finally got his chance at dawn Sunday
off Tsu island. He sunk the Russian
cruiser Rurik and sent the cruisers
Gromoboi and Rossia fleeing back from
the fight.
Japanese guns dominate the dock
Yards at Port Arthur and in view Of
this fact it would seem to he impossi-
BILE again to make seaworthy or fight
able the Russian battleships which
have returned to Port Arthur. It Is
probable that the Russian battleship
Czarevitch will disarm at Tsingchou.
The best possible naval force that
Russia can now concentrate at Vladi-
vostok Is four cruisers.

The last Alexis was emperor of Mos
COW. in 1Gi5.
The emperor was greatly restricted
In the choice Of name for the heir
to the throne by the fact that the i'm
perial initials which everywhere ap-
pear in public edifices, on soldiers
eraulettes, saddle cloths, railway wag-
ons, etc, are "a" and IN" The Sc
lection of name not beginning with
these letters would entail enormous
expense should the heir come TO the
throne.
There are great many traditions
about the name The first Alexis. who
won many victories over the Poles,
endeared himself to his people and is
known in Russian history as "the
father of his country" The name is
not a particularly lucky one. Alexis
Petrovitch was ordered to be executed
by his father. Peter the Great. for
treason. but died in prison. A curious
coincidence is that the heir was born
on the anniversary OF the canonization

anniversary Of the appointment Of Ad-
