Washington. Aug. 12-Tho information OF the
naval encounter between the Russian and
Japanese fleets is not sufficiently definite TO
permit expert opinion the ultimate effect
Had It not been FOR the reported return of the
Russian ships had tha japanese succeeded IN
destroying them, the naval problem for the Japan
ese would have been simplhed. OF course In some
respects the return OF the Russians TO Port Arthur
IS an advantage 10 the japanese. II prevents a
union between tho Port Arthur and the Vladivostok
fleets Of tho enemy. Naval opinion regards the
departure Of the Russian ships from Port Arthur
as an indication OF the desperate situation In that
quarter. There does not appear to have been eny
other reason why the Russians should emerge at
this time. although some officers here have a
theory that the movement IN conjunction with
some evolution oc the command VIadivostok.
Confirmation OF any such notion IS for the present
lacking.
1t IS possible that the tactics OF the Port Arthur
command 10 keep the japanese employed
there. II this is the result Of the subter
fuge will become known IN a day two. Some
val officers. however. think the Russians possess
definite naval plan which takes into considera-
ton the seriously hampered force at Port Arthur
