4 FLEET ANTCK.

'Impossible.' was the exclamation that in
stinctively rose to every lip at the first news OF
the tragic doings Of the Russian Baltic feet in
the North Sea. But the news proved to be not
only possible but true. Impossible" is again
the comment that is instnctively suggested
upon each one Of the three most obvious expla-
nations Of what Russian officials call "a regret
table and deplorable mistake" Yet it seems
that one Of the impossible" explanations must
be true. One is that of malignancv We have
already said that is instinctvely regarded as
impossible We cannot conceive that the com
manders OF Russian warships knowingly and
deliberately fred upon innocent and peaceful
fishermen. To have done so either through
hatred Of Great Britain or through a desperate
determination to embroil Russia in such a con-
hict as would save her face" in retreat from
the victorious might Of Japan would be too
monstrous 10 believe. Another EXPLANATION Is
that Of blundering The members Of the fishing
fleet were exchanging signals with rockets. as
is the common custom. 1t is suggested that the
Russians mistook these for the signals Of a
stile-Japanese-hotllla and therefore Opened
hre. But Il seems inconceivable that after
sweeping the smacks and trawlers with their
searchlights. they should mistake them for
japanese torpedo boats If the perception and
discretion Of Russian admirals and captains
are no better than that there is an omfnous
Ouo'"A lVI me navy OF tne Gar.
The third IS that Of panic
Panic that shells the drifting spsr-
Loud waste with none to check
Mad fear that rakes a scornful star
Or sweeps consorts deck
We do not know that it is any more tolera BILE
TO apply this explanation than either of the
others, yet in the absence Of some more pIau-
sible and more creditable one, and in the pres
ence OF some unnistakable indications OF it's
truthfulness. we must be pardoned if at least
tentatively we incline to adopt il. Ten days
ago Admiral Wirenius, chief of the Russian
naval headquarters stan, said that the Baltic
feet would leave home waters secretly, for
though they did not expect an attack in Euro
'pean waters. everything was possible" We
know. too as we have hitherto pointed out. that
this feet is manned chiefly by untried levies
whose nerves have never yet been steadied by
the strenuous tonic OF actual battle 1t should
be impossible for even untried men 10 fall into
so mad and murderous a panic But-there
really must be some explanation of the Incl
dent, and IL that is not It, what is:
At any rate. this is a had beginning for n Ave

Are we TO understand that this fleet. whether
malignant or laundering or panic stricken. is to
