ST. Petersburg. Sept. -. 11:51 a. NJ
Captain Cladot, Vice Admiral Skryd-
lofts chief of staff, has arrived from
Vladivostok with important dispatches
for the emperor In an interview Cap
tain CladoJ informed the corresp ondent
Of the Associated Press that the repairs
TO the protected cruiser BOgatyr had
been completed, that the damages To
the armored cruisers GrOmOboi and
Rossia did not necessitate their gOin~
into dry dock. and that both were flt
to resume active service He admits
that the chief mission Of these vessels
is TO prey upon commerce, but says
they had a hard fight with Vice Ad-
miral Kamimura' ships when the lat
ter attempted to cut off their retreat.
Cladot says the Russians viii be un-
able TO recapture Port Arthur. i'm the
event of its fall. without having tn
mastery of the sea and he urges the
dispatch Of every available snip to the

The Russ and Novoe Vremya refuse
to accept the low estimate of the Jap

They say they have no reason to sup
pose that they are more correct than
the pictures of the situation in Russia
published in the British press. The
Russ is convinced that the Japanese
are able to place as many able bodied
men in the field as France. whose ca
pacity. the Russ says, is $500. 900 men.
The paper admits that Russia is great
ly handicapped by the distance Of her
army from headquarters here, and
urges doubling the Siberian railroad.
