burg dispatch TO The Daily Mall the En-
peror on Wednesday 1ec-eed the dispatch of

the battleships Paul l and Slara. which Will

hoped. will be fitted out in two months. Prob
ably it will be commanded by either vice-Ad-
r-iraI Dubassof or Vice-AdmiraI Chouknin. 1t
is further asserted that no decision has been
reached regarding the Black Sea feet.
ST. Petersburg, Dec. There is considera Bile
circumstantial evidence that the agitation for
the dispatch of a third squadron, comprising the
Slack Sea feet, to the Far East is inspired by
Admiral Alexieff. and is in the nature Of a
campaign against the Foreign Office and Ad-
nralty. The demand for the reinforcement of
vice-Adniral Rojestvensky's squadron by the
immediate dispatch OF all the available ships
still in the Baltic is. however, growing stronger
daily. high naval authority declares there
are three good battleships the General Admiral
Apraxine. the Admiral Seniavin and the Ad-
niral Oushakoff, ready at Libau and that the
cruisers Admiral Korniloff, Vladimir Mono
mach Pamyat Azova and Minnie could be made
ready quickly, while the battleship Slava could
possibly be completed and the battleships
Nicolai and Alexander II fitted out with new
