JAPANESE ARMY TAKES
 UP ADVANCE ON LAND

Raphael, ordering that all of them should be shot after their exchange and directing that if the ship should ever be recaptured it's infamous history should be plotted out by the total de- struction of the vessel. The Raphael, strange to say, was recaptured thirty four years later at Sinope during the Crimean war, son of the captain who surrendered her taking part in the bat tie, and to this son fell the task of exc cutting the dead emperors orders to de- stroy her. Many naval authorities de- clare that the emperor should reserve the same fate for Admiral Nebogatoff.
 While hope for the safety of the pro- tected cruisers Oleg and Aurora has been generally abandoned, some of the naval authorities believe it possible that their commanders, realizing that the fleet had been practically destroyed and that Vladivostok as a harbor of refuge would only prove a deathtrap in the end, laid their course either for Nicho- laieff, at the mouth of the Amur river, or for Petropavlovsk, in Kamtchatka. There is plenty of coal at both places to replenish the bunkers of the cruis- CTS.
 The ships could then escape across the Pacific and either be interned in the United States or return by way of Cape Horn.

 Regarding his visit to the White house all that Count Cassini would say was:
 T had most cordial conversation with the president thisaafternoon, dur ing which the whole situation in the Far East was discussed informally and in general manner. No peace over lures were received from Japan, nor were any made. Our talk was confiden- tial, of course, and of very general character

kEW ORLEANS POLICE GRAFT.
Head of Department Dismissed-shock-
 ing Corruption.

New Orleans, June 2.-Inspector John Journee, head of the New Orleans po- lice department, was to-day dismissed from the service as a result of an in vestigation of charges filed against him. At the trial to-day Isaac Slum- sky testified to the existence of club supported by "Tenderloin' interests which paid $200 a month to the police for protection. Among other things the club, he said, was engaged in bringing women here from other cities for im- moral purposes. Inspector Journee ad- mftted that these charges had been brought to his attention during his ad- nlinistration. Assistant District Attor- ney Westerfield testified to making af- fidavits against more than a hundred lottery shops, the information of which to him from persons outside of the po- lice department. Inspector Journee protested against the trial on the ground that the case against him had been prejudged.
 At the conclusion of the testimony the board declared Journes guilty of in- competency and dismissed him from the force.

CAUSES OF RUSSIAN DEFEAT.
Japanese Expert Mentions Numerous
 Reasocs

Tokio, June 2.-Noon-The cardinal causes of Rojestvensky' defeat have been the subject of general discussion here. One Japanese expert gives the following analysis:
 First, an imperfect reconnaissance and incomplete, faulty and misleading intelligence. s~.
 Second, an imperfect battle fornla- tion, which indicated that Rojestvens- ky did not expect to meet Togo off Tsushima. .s
 Third, the weather, the direction of the wind and the sunlight were unfa- vorable to the Russians Togo having the sun behind him and firing with the wind, while the Russians had the sum- light in their eyes and fired against the wind. E
 Fourth, the Russians wasted their ammunition and eventually ran short. It is believed that the surrender of na- bogatoff was necessary because his ann- munition had been exnended.
 Fifth, the marked inferiority of Russian gunnery." ~--.
 Some experts criticise Rojestvensky for essaying the Tsuhirna channel. Others uphold him, saying that his only chance lay in going through that chan mel. The impression prevails that Ro- jestvensky was totally unaware of the presence of Togo's entire fleet off Tsu- shima. Many believe that it was ne- cessary for Togo to take a station at pivotal point from which it would be possible to intercept the Russians en- tering either Tsushima, Tsugaru of ,Soya channels. Calculations placed this pivotal point on the west coast near the western entrance of Tsugaru channel. ,Togo's real whereabouts were known to many Japanese, but the se- cret was successfully guarded; another example of the willingness and ability of the Japanese to preserve military secrets. Leaving aside the questions of preparedness and superior condi- tions, the superiority of the Japanese personnel fresh from fifteen months successful campaigning under all pos sible conditions, must be taken into consideration. Many ascrlbe the victo- ry entirely to the superior marksman- ship of the Japanese. Togo realizing that it would probably be necessary to fight in the open sea, gave his crews long training in firing during rough weather with heavy wind blowing and the ships rolling. When the hos tic fleets met, the superiority of the Japanese immediately became evident The sinking of the battleships and

 together impossible If Japan's terms should prove anything like as severe as they have been reported, it was the am- bassador's opinion that Russia could advantageously continue the war indef- initely and eventually win a victory on land. That his government would so decide he did not wich to predict but at last accounts the emperor was for a continuation of the war.
 Thus the conversation continued for more than half an hour, being charac- terized throughout by ffankness and friendliness. Later on, when the am bassador has heard from his govern ment, after communicating the presi- dents views and the presidents will lingness to render Russia any service possible in initiating peace negotiations with Japan, he will have another talk with the president.

cruisers testifies to the deadly aecura- ey of the Japanese guHnery and de- stroys the theory that it is impossible to sink such ships by shell fire.
 The attitude of Japanese naval men towards victory is curious. Togo's message to the emperor saying that the victory was the result of the emperor's superhuman influence strikes the key note of the nayy's attitude. The off, cers openly say that the marvellous re- suit obtained was impossible by mere human achievement alone.

WOUNDED THROWN INTO SEA.
Story of Shocking Scenes Enaeted or
 the OreI During the Battle.

Story of Shocking scenes Enaeted oh
 the OreI During the Battle.
 Tokio, June "A remarkable story is in circulation here concerning the wounded on the Orel. It Is said that at the opening of the fight 300 men were killed and wounded, and that the groans and shrieks of the wounded ex- ercised so harmful an effect that it was decided to throw the mortally wounded into the sea. One hundred and forty, It is said, were thrown overheard. Those slightly wounded were then bound, to prevent their interference with the fighting of the ship. -.-a-... d..
 It is impossible to obtain any con firmation of this story, but later reports indicate that the crew of the Orel fought with desperate bravery through out the day previous to their surrender. The hull of the vessel is shell-marked and many of her guns are smashed and dismounted. #
