Novik has been vanquished. The hgnl
occurred yes. erday. After it the Novik,
in sinking cond lion, was run ashore In

The full details of this sea fight are
not known here. but 1t is evident that
me Chi,ose and Tsush.ma caught up
With the Novik and that running fight
ensIed. The contest was resumed anu
terminated early this morning. Captain

II is generally thought here that the

the Novik early yesterday morning
and completed the destruction m

lie allied report of the occurrence from
he commander OF the Chitose will be
.eeeived tomorrow. This report is anx-

The news of the destructi n OF the No
vik has been received in curious man
ner by the Japanese public. From
practical standpoint 1t is highly saiisfac-
tory. for the vik could have been
most dangerous as commerce destroyer.
but, consider the matter from a sem
mental standpoint, much regret is ex-
pressed at her | IS. The Novik has been
splendidly handled and bravely fought
throughout the war and Japanese naval
officers and the public generally have
frequently expressed admiration for the
cruiser, her commander aud her crew.
