The Incident is Considered Closed.

st. Petersburg, August 25.-The an
nOuncement that h AskOld and Gro
zOvoi had been disarmed at Shanghai
came as no surprise here since the
responsible authorities decided a week
ago. as stated in The Associated Press
dispatches, to follow this curse. At
ter the flags of the Askold and GroZo-
vol had ben pulled down, their guns
were ~diSmantled.
Captain Reitzenste Officially reported
the hauling down of the Russian flag
last night.
The correspondent of The Associated
Press learns that Captain Reitzenstetn
asked the admiralty to be allowed to
take out his ship even in the face of
the superior Japanese force, but when
the admiralty ascertained the condi-
ton of the Askold and time required
for repairs her disarmament was or
dered and the incident IS considered
closed.

Shanghai, August 25.-An order was
received at $50 o'clock last night
from the Russian minister at Picking
that the cruiser Askold and the torpe-
do BOAT destroyer Grozovoi are to be
dIsarmed.
Yesterday was a day of considerable
anxiety in official circles. First an
order was sent hat the vessel could
remain four days longer. Then nego-
tiatiOns were begun for another four
days. This request was persistently
pressed by the Russian minister at
Picking but it vas absolutely refused
by the Chinese government. There
upon an order came to Shanghai 10
rush work on the vessels and go out to
what seemed certain death next Sum-
day. The abject distress ~ the AS
kOId's crew whom this news was re-
ceived vas pitiable. From h first the
officers and crew have urged dIsarma-
ment, but the minister at Picking
would not consider the suggestion.
The docks yesterday noti-
fled the Russian officials mat the AS
kold's hull could not be repaired by
Sunday. More telegraphing to Picking
followed and last night the welcome
order was received by the Russian
admiral.
Under the supervision OF the Gus
toms authorities representing China,
the AskOld and GrOzovoi will go out OF
commission before Sunday and as soon
as they are patched up, they will take
their places along side the gunboat
Mandjur which was dlsmantled last
March. Emperor Nicholas sent n
message to the crews or the ASkold
and GrOZOvOi congratulating them for
saving the vessels and conveying words
of hope. There is general satisfaction
here over the outcome of the matter.
1t is understood that the japanese fleet
will remain until the Russian vessels
are completely disarmed.
