BALTIC FLEET
ONLY A BLUFF
A PROMINENT JAPANESE OFF,
GER SAYS THE SHIPS ARE NOT
DESTINED TO REACH FAR EAST

TOXIC, October pa prominent
officer on the japanese naval staff said
today that he believed the Russian Bal
tic fleet would not come far on its way
east. He did not believe that the Rus
sian Government desires to send it at
all, and it was likely that the trawler
affair in the North sea would be used
as an excuse for the recall of the fleet.
Instancing reasons upon which he
based his belief, he said that the fleet
commander, Admiral Rojestvensky was
sick when he left port, and it is very
improbable that the Russian Govern
ment, if their intentions were serious,
would send sick Admiral to navigate
many thousands of miles to combat a
superior force at the end of long
cruise.
IF there We're any torpedo boats
among the trawling fleet which was
fired upon by the fleet, it was the duty
of the Russian officers in command, 3"
he said, ito pursue them and investi-
gate the base of their dispatch. Russia
by delay was seeking to render the di-
plomatic situation with England more
critical to afford a plausible excuse to
recall it's fleet"

NEW YORK, October 30.-From ev-
cry town and hamlet within 100 miles
of New York mighty multitude took
possession of the Subway today. The
cohorts came from Connecticut, Penn
sylvania, New Jersey, Brooklyn, East
ern New York and the far reaches of
Long Island. Borne into the city by
excursions on every railroad by packed
trolley cars and crowded ferry boats
the sightseers swamped every trans
portatiOn facility of Manhattan. Ming
ling with tn usands of New Workers,
the incomers massed about the en-
frances of the Subway. They rode the
length of the road and back again in
tube cars damned to their capacity.
At the average rate of 800 an hour,
they poured into the tunnel. For ten
hours the rush kept up. More than
half a million were carried, the record
day since the opening. Lines that eX-
tended for blocks, in many Instance,
We're formed at the kiosks. Two thou
sand policemen were required to look
after the crowds. Blockade followed
blockade underground. All schedules
were knocked sky-high. Thousands,
finding themselves unable to get into
the Subway, rode on the L" and that
service was nearly paralyzed.

spoek the japanese schooner Togo Ma
ru on September 18th, off Kurile island,
and from the captain of the schooner
learned of a massacre of Japanese seal
ers at Copper island earlier in the sea-
son. 1t appears that the fleet of Japan
csc sealing schOOners, having seen
nothing of Russian men of war along
that part of the Siberian coast, made
bold to bear down on the Copper island
rookeries, in Russian territory, a
Despite the keenest lookout, no Rus
slams could be SEEN either at sea or on
the island, but seals We're there in
abundance, and the Japanese began
the raid without fear. According to
the story a squad of Russians put in
an appearance after the Japanese had
landed, and, taking them by SURPRISE,
killed eleven of the raiders and cap
tured at least twenty-five or thirty
others, leaving scarcely enough to man
the schOoners that were anchored off
shore.
The captives were taken on board
Russian vessels in hiding in nearby
coves, and at last accounts We're be-
Heved to be en- route to the Siberian
coast, where a hard fate awaited them.
The japanese that escaped were not
heard from in Japan up to a few weeks
ago, and many have been lost or over
taken by russian vessels before reach
ing the Japanese coast.
News of the capture of the sealing
vessels has not yet come out of Japan,
but there is no doubt Of its truth. The
story was told as it y here given by

De MATTOS HAS
VERY BIG KICK

Alfred Andrade de Mattos, a POrtu-
guese from Hawaii, arrived on the last
Kinau with big kick against the
sheriff of Hawaii, which he came to
lodge here. De Mattos was the sub
ject of an ejectment under some legal
proceeding of which he does not seem
to understand the nature, and claims
to have been unceremoniously bounced
with his family from his home. Having
made his kick, he is going back to Ha
wall on the next boat he says, to wait
results. De Mattos prepared the fol-
lowing statement Of his troubles;
l. the undersigned, make known to
the Public, that having been driven
with my family out of house and home
on the 10Th day of October A. D. 1904,

drive me out of my house it would be
necessary to kill me and my family
whereupon he called for reinforcement

arrived, and some Japanese; then Mr..
Andrews and posse entered my house
