Grave Matter for japan.

st. Petersburg, August 12.~-12 p. m,
The action Of the Japanese torpedo
boat destroyers in attacking and tow.
ing out the defenseless Russian torpe.
do Boat destroyers Ryeshltelni at Che
Foo is regarded in diplomatic circles
as being very grave matter. for Ja
pan. AS soon as the facts are Off
eially estabIishd, no doubt exists that
Russia will promptly call the attention
Of the powers to this breach of the
neutrality of China.
Aside from the possible questionable
right of an unfnjured warshfp to seek
asylum in a neutral port when not
forced to do so by distress Of wealth
er or lack of coal and provisions, all
the diplomats agree as to the absolute
illegality Of belligerent ships entering
neutral points and their committing
hostile acts. The case, so far as the
facts are known, is considered much
more fragrant than that at Chemulpo,
where all foreign commanders except
the commander Of the American war,
ship there protsted against the propo.
sal of the Japanese to enter and fight
the Russian cruisers Variag and 10.

national Trouble.
Washington, August 12-The report
OF the capture NY the Japanese tor.
pedo boat destroyers of the Russian
destroyer Ryeshitelni in the harbor of
Che Foo, as conveyed to Washington
by cablegram today, was received with
the deepest interest and also concern.
Tor 1t was realized that there were In
this incident the germs of serious in.
ternational trouble
Mr.. Fowler spoke of the affair as a
cutting out" expedition, thereby differ
lng in an important point from the
press dispatches which at first read.
ing to indicate that the seizure of the
Russian boat was in at least some de,
gree caused by the action of the can
tain of the craft in attacking the
Japanese boarding lieutenant. 1t may
be that the point will turn the decision
as to whether or not there has been
violation Of Chinese neutrality by
the Japanese.
II the expedition was a genuine cut,
ting out one, then there is no question
in the minds Of the officials here that
the Japanese have committed an of,
tense against international law by VIC,
lating Chinese neutrality and in addi.
tion have broken the agreement they
entered into at the beginning of the
war, at the instance of the United
States government to limit the field
Of warlike demonstrations to Manchu.
ria and Korea and their waters.
Should this prove to be the case,
the results probably will be grave and
vexatious. Under the tenets of inter,
national law the captured vessel must
be returned for the offense against
Chinese neutrality. But il Russian
lives. have been lost as reported in
the press dispatches, a greater com.
plication will follow for Russia may
In turn hold China responsible for the
punishment for what caused the death
of the sailors when under the shelter
Of the Chinese port authorities
Altogether, the situation is full oi
danger and the main apprehension OF
the officials here is that it may Be
the incident that will break down the
agreement Of the powers and plunge
China into the war as full fiedged
belligerent and ally of Japan. The
consequences Of such an act Of China'a
part upon existing alliances between
Japan ana Great Britain and between
Russia and France can only be con.
jectured and the prospect Is so alarm.
ing that 1t is not doubted, the state de.
partment will do it's Utmost along with
the rest of the powers to effect such
settlement of this incident as shall
preserve the agreement as to China
in full force.

st. Petersburg, August 12.-2: B pm.
Everything else from military stand
point seems to be forgotten In the<gen.
eral anxiety concerning the fate of
the Port Arthur squadron. The fu-
ture plans of the admiralty hang, upon
the preservation of the bulk of the
squadron and it is not too much to
say that the present is regarded as
being the most critical moment of the
war. The admiralty till noon de.
olared it was without official advices
as to the whereabouts of the squad
ron, and could not confirm the report
that the cruiser Novik and another
Russian warship, the battleshipFCzare.
Witch, had put into Using Chou at the
entrance Of Kiao Chou bay, the Ger
man concession on the Shan Tung Pc
ninsula. Nevertheless, as stated by
the. Associated Press last Night, pri.
vafe dispatches seem to show that the
squadron may have been communicat.
ing with Russians after passing the
Shan Tung promOntory and hope is
high that the squadron successfully
broke through the Japs' line of ships
and is now steaming for VIadivostock.
The departure of the squadron in the
face Of tn superior japanese feet Is
comm ended by all classes.
