London, Feb. 10-The naval men in
London regard the result of Japans

and said that IL the Russian vessels
had been struck by Whitehead tor

or are resting on the mud in Port
Arthur, in any case hopelessly out OF

German Opinion Of Japanese Attack at
Port Arthur.

Berlin, Feb. 10.-Japan's initial sue
cess in the first attack with torpedo
boats on the Russian fleet off Port
Arthur produced deep impression
both on the people and military and
naval critics here. Groups gathered
around the distributors of the extras
in the streets and read the news al
most with exclamations OF gladness.
The comment at the marine depart
ment was that even the temporary
disablement of three warships placed
the Russians al a great disadvantage
in the future operations. 1t was add
ed that the torpedOing OF the enemy s
vessels lying under powerful land
batteries must have been carried out
daringly and skillfully. As Viceroy
Alexieff did not mention any Japanese
losses in his first dispatch the com
mon talk of the naval officers was that
the Japanese have shown that they can
handle their ships better than the
Russians.
