Have to Be Taken Out.
Moscow, May 21.-After an exhaust
i've inquiry the correspondent of the
London Times finds that there is no
need to take seriously the Russian
threats to dispatch to the Far East
next July reinforcements of war ves-
sells. The optimistic reports regarding
the rapid progress of the warships Of
the Baltic feet which have been
printed in European capitals have been
given out here by officials and have
been telegraphed abroad without
change. They are absolutely untrue,
because there are no means at hand for
the correspondents to verify the re-
ports, and they have no means of in
specting the shipyards where the YES
sells are being prepared for service.
While it is fact that unprecedented
haste is being made in getting wsrships
ready for service, there is limit to
efficient speed in ship construction,
and this has been exceeded with the
result that many of the boilers which
have been installed in the new war
ships will have to be taken out and re-
placed. This has created sensation
at the navy department, and it is now
certain that the Baltic feet will not
start for the Far East for many months
to come.
