Toxic, June 25.-Admiral Togo re-
ports that on Thursday last, June %,
his patrol boats discovered the battle
ship Peresviet and seven other vessels,
accompanied by nine torpedo boat de-
stroyers, near the entrance of Port
Arthur harbor. They warned him
wlrelessly and he Immediately ad-
vanced his entire feet except those
engaged upon special duty. The ad-
mlral then discovered that the Rus
sian fleet, which consisted of six bat
tleships, five cruisers and fourteen de-
stroyers, evidently planned a dash
southwark by sundown.
The Russians stopped outside the
entrance to the harbor and after night
TALL a fleet of Japanese torpedo boat
destroyers resolutely attacked the
Russian ships and succeeded in tor
pedoing and sinking battleship of the
Peresviet type and disabled the battle
ship Sevastopol. A cruiser of the Di-
ana type was observed being towed
into the harbor on Friday morning and
it was evident she had sustained seri.
Gus damage.
The Japanese ships sustained little
damage. The torpedo boat destroyer
Shirakumo was hit by a shell, which
fell in the cabin, and had three men
killed and three others wounded. The
Chidori. a vessel of the same class,
was hit behind the engineroom, but no
casualties resulted therefrom. Tor

GREAT BATTLE IMMINENT.
Three Hundred Thousand Men Ready
For the Fray.

Three Hundred Thousand Men Ready
For the Fray.
st. Petersburg, June 2S.-Lieutenant
General Sakharoffs dispatch received
Monday night confirms the belief that
the great decisive battle OF the cam.
paign between General Kuropatkin s
main army and the armies of Generals
Kuroki and Oku is imminent. The
three armies probably aggregate 30O,-
600 men and their Outposts are today
in touch all along the line. The Jap.
anese evidently tried to draw Kuro.
patkin as far south as possible, hold
ing out as an incentive check to the
advance OF Oku's main army. Mean.
time Oku swung sharply to the east
ward to join Kuroki toward the Cha.
pan pass, kuroki at the same time
moving strong force by the right
flank toward Haicheng.
The main Japanese advance cOntin.
ues along the main Fengwangcheng.
Liaoyang road, avoiding the Moatien
pass by detour to the northward.
The advance in all pointss is being at.
tended by constant skirmishing.
Nothing is known here of the exact
point at which Kuropatkin's main force
is concentrated, though it is believed
that large part of the Liaoyang force
has been moved to point between
Kinchau and Tashichiao. ~:
According to press dispatchi from
Tashichiao Monday, large force has
been pushed southwark from Tashi-
chiao against Oku. While Kuropatkin
is thus extending himself, the Japan
ese with great mobility seem to be
trying to concentrate for the purpose
of striking the Russians in the flank
and rear.

pose of thoroughly overhauling their

st. Petersburg, June 25.-The ad

On Thursday the correspondent OF

that important naval developments
were anticipated. If an actual engage

believe that Admiral Togo got off prac-

therefore, is expressed to know
