British BattIeships Watching.

Gibralter, Nov. 5.-The battleships
Victorius, Magnificent Illustrious, and
Jupiter have been detached from the
British channel fleet and ordered to
sea with strict instructions to keep a
close watch on the straits.
No information is obtainable here as
to the reason for this order. but it is
believed that the vessels have been
ordered to detain all British ships con-
veying coal to the Russians, the admir-
atty having decided that such trans
actions are not permissible.

MAY NEVER DISCOVER TRUTH
OF THE NORTH SEA TRAGEDY

London. Nov. 5.-Uondon Times.)-
1t begins to seem doubtful whether the
world will ever know much more
about the North sea tragedy than 1t
knows now. Everything London learns
concerning the attitude of the Rus
SLAMS lends itself to the view that the
cars government has determined so
fas as 1t Is able. to suppress the truth
touching the horrible affair. It Is not
believed here by those whose opinions
are entitled to the greatest weight
that the Russian admiralty is without
off the Dogger bank. On the contrary,
It is believed that the Russian author
ities are in possession of facts which
show that her warships fought one
another with shot and shell and that
there was not the sign of an enemy
anywhere about. So there is no ex-
pectation In the minds of those who
hold this opinion that Russia will pro-
duce witnesses before the inquiry
board to publish her shame to the
world. The explanation is rather, that
her witnesses will persist In telling
that tiresome story of Japanese at
tack and repulse.
Russia make confession before that
inquiry board?" exclaimed promin-
ent naval officer. 81 think not, and II
she doesn't make a clean breast of 1t,

worlds being advised precisely OF
what happened on that fateful night.
for the only persons in the world VINO
really know are among the officers and
crews of the Russian vessels.
There is only one possible chance
of procuring evidence, the production
of which would compel Russia to tell
the truth. 1t lies in finding the Rus
sian war vessel submerged near the
Dogger bank. Maybe there is none
there, maybe no torpedo boat was
sunk, but II Vice Admiral Rojestven-
sky told the truth when he said that
he sank torpedo boat. that boat, II
1t can be found. will necessarily be
the Russian craft. for no other than
Russian war craft was present in those
waters on that night. I would not
gamble much on the chance Of finding
such torpedo boat, for the reason
that do not place great credence in
the vice admiral's story, but 1t may be
there and 1t ought to be searched for
anyhow. My view. however, and that
of many of my friends is that when
Russia has apologized and paid the
damages and possibly mildly repri-
manded an officer or two, she will be
through with the incident. 1t does not
seem possible just now that she will
consent to have the truth known, mol
that it can be known absolutely with
out her consent"
