RUSSIAN ARRITAE ar FiGo.
Post Commander Declares spain Can
not Allow ships to Coal.

Vigo, Spain, Oct 26.-The arrival Of
ander III, Borodino. Orel. and Kniaz
Zouvaroff and the transport Anatol,
which have anchored in this port, has
caused considerable excitement. The
commander of the port inmed-
lately boarded the Russian flag
ship and informed Admiral Rojestven-
sky that the Spanish government could
not permit the warships to coal within
the port Admiral Rojestvensky replied
that his vessels needed repairs and
that for that reason he had separated
from the remainder Of his squadron.
The commander of the port promised
to inform the Spanish government of
the admiral's statement and communi-
cate the governments reply as soon as
it was received. In spite of this five
golfers anchored in port alongside the
battleships, whereupon the commander
of the port sent an aide-de-camp to
beg Admiral Rojestvensky not to vio-
late Spanish neutrality, and he also or
dered the commanding officer of the
Spanish cruiser Estramadura to notify
the Golfers that they must obey the
port authorities. Eventually Admiral
Rojestvensky promised that he would
not coal in Spanish waters, at the same
time begging the commander of the
port to obtain the governments per-
mission for each warship to take on 400
tons of coal with which to reach Tan
gier. Shortly afterwards three golfers
sailed for Tangier, but two remained
alongside the Russian warships.
During the afternoon Admiral Rojest-
vensky, accompanied by the command
ers of his battleships, visited the mill
tary governor, the French consul and
commander of the port, receiving the
usual honors
AS far as can be seen the crews Of
the battleships are very uneasy. Sem
tineis are closely watching every move
ment within the harbor. All Of the
warships seem to be cleared for action.
1t is runored that the object Of the
Spanish government in requesting the
Russians to remain the shortest possi-
BILE time at Vigo is to prevent the pos
sibility of attack by japanese agents,
whose presence in the province of Gall
icia is suspected.
1T is learned that three other Russian
warships have anchored in Arosa bay.
The government has refused them per-
mission to coal in Spanish waters.
The Spanish warships Marques de La
Victoria and Vasco Nunez de Balboa
are keeping watch along the coast.
The authorities have ordered that all
fishing boats shall fly the national flag
in order to avoid q repetition Of the
Dogger Bank incident.
