Toxic, Saturday, Feb. fS.-The Vladi-

today. 1t is unknown whether the
squadron returned to Nladivostok or
effected a passage into the Pacific An
unveTified report says a foreign war
ship was seen of Maizura naval sta

concerned over the naval situation. as
they feel confident that they will soon
dominate the sea.
There is no fear of the Russians IN

there is danger of a conflict. It is

Variag and Korietz.


Nagasaki, Feb. 1.-THE survivors
from the Variag and Korietz, the Rus
sian cruisers that wer sunk by the
Japanese feet at Chemulpo last Tues
cay, stiu remain on board the British
cruiser Talbot the Italian cruiser EIba
and the French cruiser Pascal. The sit
uation is becoming acute as the Japa-.
neSe have twice made demands on the
commanders Of the foreign vessels that
the Russians be surrendered as pris-
oners of war. The captain Of the Tai
bot. being Lhe senior naval officer, each
time replied that he was awaiting in
structions from his government. None
Of the Russians IS on board the Amer
lean gunbOat Eicksburg, whose COM
mander considers that the japanese are
right in their demand as the Russians
took advantage of the oIemency of the
japanese IN returning TO the harbor,
then taking refuge on the foreign ves-
sells and refusing TO surrender, whereas
the japanese feet refrafned from sink
ing them in the open sea as they could
have done.
A magnificent episode in the battle
was the second sortie Of the two RUS
sian cruisers. With bands playing the
national anthem the international fleet
loudly cheering the bravery and gall
lsntry Of the Russians, the Variag and
Korietz faced the japanese fleet in
what was certain death.
The position OF the wrecks appear 10
be such that IL viii be easy TO recover
the guns. The Russian losses we're one
officer killed and forty men killed and
