the subject. Coroner Hayden and Cap

Baltic Squadron
 Can Give No Aid
WORK BEING PUSHED NIGHT
 AND DAY ON THE FLEET.
But Cannot Be Ready Before Septen ber-Czar is Much Aeitated When Informed of Loss of Guns in Battle of Kin Chow.

St Petersburg, Thursday Al though work is being pushed night and day to prepare the Baltic fleet for service. it is feared now that it cannot be gotten ready to sail Ger the Far East before September. Tn. delay is considered especially unfortu- nate in view of the situation at Port Arthur, where the arrival of the fleet { before the fall of the fortress would compel the raising of the siege.
 It has been found necessary to put the battleship Orel, which recently sank at her moorings at Cronstadl and or which on explosion. killing ten stokers, was alleged to have occurred in dry dock, and possibly she may not accompany the Baltic fleet to the far East.
 There is no intention of purchas- ing any South American war ships offered by private firms. Neither has Russia any intention of buying fofeign merchantmen flor transport purposes. Four Homburg- American liners were bought by the merchant marine and turned over to the navy to become part of the volunteer Fleet. Twenty transports will ac- company the Baltic fleet carrying coal. ammunition and every kind of stores. There will also be repair. water condensing and hospital ships. Altogether sixty-two pennants will go out under Vice Admiral Rojestven- sky.
