red in the Korean strait. This time the
Vladiyostok squadron was put out of
business, making Japan mistress of the
seas. The surviving sailors of the Rue
sian cruiser Rurik, who were landed at
Sasebo, the Japanese naval base, have
thrilling stories to tell of Sundays sea
fight in the Korean strait.
The three cruisers of the Vadivostok
squadron, the Rurik, Rossia and Grom-
oboi, steamed out of port on Saturday
with the intention of effecting junction
with the Port Arthur squadron. eve
had reached the latitude of Fusan on
Sunday morning." said a lieutenant,
who is among the survivors, "when we
saw four japanese cruisers off TIE Ko-
rean coast, evidently patroIing the
channel. Signals were displayed from
our flagship, in response to which cur
squadron turned and steamed north a.
full speed.
Immediately the japanese cruisers
pointed northwest evidently with tho
intention of heading us off. The reason
for our retreat was that the presence OF
the japanese feet showed us that the
sorte from Port Arthur had failed.
For some reason the Rur k made
steam slowly, and when the Japanese
cruisers began firing, which was little
after 5 O'Clock in the morning, our boat
was the target for the four guns of all
the pursuers.
''They got our range and then the
shells bid fair to blow us out of the wa
ter. | don't know how many times we
were hit, but so terrible and accurate
was the japanese fire that / only won
der there was man of us left
'Soon the Rossia and the Gromobol
showed the effects of the enemy's fire.
They were hit a number OF times
Flames started from the Rossia and we
signallgd: Goodbye, save yourselves
At this time the enemy was heading ia
80 dangerously that the Rossia and
G'omoboi steamed away and we got
safely back to port. We were settling
badly and were making preparations TO
leave the vessel when the Japanese
cruisers steamed out from behind the
island of Tsushima and attacked us,
We returned their fire as bravely as
possible, but in a few minutes we had
not gun left. The two new cruisers
showered shell after shell into us. We
settled more and more, SO a last com
mand was given to stand to quarters,
and then her bow went up and the Ru-
rik went down.
"There were rs of us when we left
Vladivostok and the enemy saved about
600. Their conduct was most kind,
They claimed that their cruisers were
not injured, but | do not believe that

JAPAN MISTRESS OF SEAS.


The fast and furious stage of the wa
IN the Orient has arrived. The past two
weeks have been marked with tremen
dous destruction of life and property
All reports from Toxic and St. Peters
burg show that the smashing sea fght
from which Admiral Togo emerged a
victor was the worst disaster yet Gus
tained by Russia in the war. Even
more certain it is that the naval en-
gagement outside of Port Arthur on
August 10th was one of the greatest the
world has ever known. Pounding with
the guns of his great fleet for eight
! hours against six Russian battleships
four cruisers and a dozen destrovers,
and following it up with an attack by
torpedo boat dest,o, Togo dealt a
defeat to the r ssians tat was almost
annihilation. Some of the czar's war
ships will never fight again. At least
one OF the wsrships is out of action for
ever. Five are crippled. Two of the
cruisers are out of action. The once
great fleet is torn and scattered, and
Port Arthur is virtually left defeneeless
from harbor attack This is the awful
price the Russian general stpff admits
was paid for the dash from Port Arthur.
Nearly score of other naval officers,
mostly on the Czarevitch and Retzivan.
were slain. Hundreds of seamep were
lost. Five battleships were badly dam
aged. The Czareyitch was permanently
disabled. Two cruisers are in unsea-
worthy fix. Two destroyers are strand
ed on the rocks. The fleet is scattered
and crippled, The killing of Rear Ad
miral Withoeft, who was in command
of the Russian naval forces at Port Ar
thur, occurred during the engagement.
"We got the range exactly" says Gem
mander Ogura, "and almost all our
shells told, while those of the enemy
fell around us. Shells fell thick and
fast until the sea was fairly boiling.
Vice Admiral Togo remained on the
bridge OF the Mikasa throughout the
battle"
The officer says that three II inch
shells struck the Czarevtch within 15
minutes, doing terrible damage and
causing the vessel to trembe and to
travel rapidly in circles for 10 minutes
until temporary repairs had been made.
The first shell killed Rear Admiral
Wthoeft and several other officers
The second struck the coming tower
and killed everybody in its vicinity.
while the third burst against the fore
mast. During the night Japanese tor
pedo boats attacked the Czare evitch no
fewer than five times.
"We saw the torpedoes fred" said
the officer. They passed very close to
US, but none struck US. All our ships
received serious damage and a fierce
fire broke out on the Peresviet The
engines and guns worked splendidly |
and there was no leakage. The Krupp |
}-inch armor plate resisted the project

'ecoied from it. Our sailors cheerfully |
aced the storm of red hot iron"
