BELIEVES JAPANESE
MUST HAVE SUFFERED
CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE

At the Russian embassy tonight
Count Cassini, while naturally greatly
depressed at the loss of life, expressed
belief that when fuller details came
in it would be found that Admiral Re-
jestvensky has saved a part of his
squadron and that his passage of the
straits of Korea had not been accom-.
plished without inflicting great dam
age on the opposing fleet.
"Talk of peace is premature" the
ambassador declared. "If the victory
be as stupendous as the Japanese
would have the world believe, the
neutral powers can scarcely wish for
Japan to be allowed to remain with
out taste of defeat. Much as should
welcome an end of the war for some
reasons, my belief is that the effect of
Rojestvensky's defeat will be the I'm.
definite prolongation of the war. Rus.
sia must fight on perhaps years. until
the tables are turned"
At the Japanese legation Mr.. Taxa
hira had earlier in the day expressed
his keen satisfaction at the victory
of Togo.
II cannot discuss the effects of this
battle" he said, until the final re-
ports are received; until we know of
Rojestvensky's fate. Ask Russia. not
Japan, II the hour of peace has ar
rived. Our fleet is still pursuing the
enemy. 1t is to Russia, not to Japan
that the initiative toward peace is to
be looked for"

OF ADMIRAL TOGO
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
TOXIC, May 80, $3.50 a. m.-Admiral
Togo's brief reports thus far received
are as follows:
The first report received on the
morning of May 81 Immediately on re-
ceipt of the report that the Russian
squadron had been sighted.
"Our combined fleet is now going
into action. The weather is clear but
the sea is rough"
The second report received on the
night of May 27
To-day near Okinoshima (southeast
of Tsushima) we attacked the enemy's
squadron, causing it heavy damage.
At least four Russian ships were sunk
and others were heavily damaged. Our
damage is slight. Our destroyer and
torpedo boat fotillas commenced an
attack after sunset"
Third report received morning Of
May 20:
"The main strength of our COM
bined fleet continued the attack since
the 9th and on the 2Sth near Liam
court 1OCkS encountered lliS tiANiAiJ
consisting of the Nikolai /, Orel, Sc
niavin, Apraxine (battleships) and the
Izumrud (cruiser). We attacked. The
Izumrud left the line of battle and
all the others soon surrendered. We
suffered no damage. The prisoners
taken state that the Russian ships
sunk in the battle on the 27th were

BEGINNING Of
END SAYS DEWEY
SHOWS THE IMPORTANCE OF
SEA POWER
WE SHOULD BE PREPARED
American Admiral Finds In Russians
Defeat a Warning That We
Should Maintain High
Efficiency

Special to The Herald.
WASHINGTON, May 29.-George
Dewey, admiral Of the navy, after read
ing reports received from various
sources up TO O'Clock said of the naval
engagement in Tsushima straits:
"Togo's victory is wonderful. 1t
seems to me this is the beginning of the
end of the war. Certainly such COM
plete and decisive defeat must make for
peace.
Gould there be a better illustration Of
the value and importance of sea power?
Apparently Admiral Rojestvensky, con-
fldent in his superior strength, felt that
he could force the straits Of Tsushima.
1t was an ideal place for Togo to attack
his enemy. The naval commander who
attacks his enemy first has, 1 think, the
fight already half won. 1t all shows
what preparedness counts for.
Further than this, the result of the
battle is the most convincing argument
on earth that we should not cease to
build up our navy to the point required
for the adequate defense Of the country
and its interests. But more than this,
whatever fleet we have should be con-
stantly trained in its personnel and pre-
pared in every conceivable way for the
crucial test which comes In time of
war; That is what we are doing now.
"The general board of the navy has
recommended that the navy, in order
adequately to protect the coasts and
commerce Of the United States, should
consist of fleet consisting of forty
eight battleships, twenty-four armored
cruisers, forty-eight torpedo boat de-
stroyers and scout ships, Golfers, hos
pital ships, repair ships and other aux
iliaries in proper proportion. OF course,
these figures are not unchangeable, but
they are approximately what is re-
quired for US to keep abreast of other
nations. Certainly such battles as that
of yesterday stand as invincible argu-
ments for the upbuilding Of the Amer
lean navy"

LONDON, May SO.-The naval bat

FRANCE CONSIDERS
RUSSIA HAS PLAYED
HER VERY LAST CARD
BY Associated d Press.

PARIS, May 29.-The late dispatches
of the Associated Press showing the
crushing nature of the Russian naval
defeat have led to the comment that
Russia has played her last card and
must bring the war to an end. The
semi official Temps this afternoon
makes an urgent appeal on the sub
ject voicing the sentiment of the allied
nations that Russia should abandon a
struggle which has become hopeless
and make the best peace possible. The
paper says Admiral Rojestvensky was
the last hope and his defeat leaves ia
pan master of the seas without any
further chance of the Russian navy or
army achieving a victory.

The promptness with which Washing

HOW A LICENSE WAS SAVED
Old English Public House Maintained
to Provide for New
Business.

For many weeks during last winter
an odd sight was to be seen daily In
High Holborn. In the center Of a
great area Of recently demolished
buildings stood small wooden shanty,
relates Stray Stories.
At ~ o'clock the door was opened.
and solitary customer entered. In
side he found an ordinary small coun-
Ter, behind which was a bartender.
The customer called for a pint Of
beer and the attendant carefully meas
ured out an imperial pint This was
paid for and consumed to the last
drop: the customer then retired: the
bartender followed, locked up, and the
little hut remained empty and desert
ed until midday on the following day,
when the same thing took place again.
The reason Of this performance was
that one of the demolished buildings
was an old public house, known as the
Coach and Horse. The new purchasers
intend to include q licensed restaurant
!n the buildings which they are erect
Ing upon the old site. and In order to
preserve the license they erected this
wooden hut In order to carry on the
business. and thus preserve the license.

direction as far as the appropriation
warranted and left things SO that their
successors were obliged to complete
them. The present city administration
initiated nothing In the way Of pub
lie Improvement for Brooklyn. II
they had such a soft spot In their
hearts for Brooklyn why didn't they
go over there with the high service in
stead of through the northern part at
the city? What's the reason some of
the money spent to convert the Mid
dlebury road into boulevard for the
accommodation of few millionaires
was not put out on South Leonard
street, where it would be great ac-
conmodation to hundreds of working
people? They accuse democrats OF
holding up appropriations for macadam
roads. This is true, but why was this
SO? The democrats believed that a
share of this money should be spent
nearer the center Of population than
clear out on the Middlebury road,
where Waterbury man rarely visits.
The democrats would put some Of 1t
on South Leonard street and other
streets that have been neglected, but
the business administration and the re-
publican board of aldermen had. little
consideration for the wishes of the
man on foot when they heard the mag
netic voice Of the gentleman In the
auto car en- route to his summer come
at Quassapaug.
REILEY WAS COMPETENT.
The reference to Mr. Kelley in the
campaign issue is rather unfortunate
for the republican side of the house
and shows that the campaign Is large
ly in the hands of men not familiar
with Mr. Reiley's record as a public
official and private man. AS pri-
vate citizen he is the peer of the best
man In the community and his public
that prompted some Of the wise heads
of the present administration to re
mark early In Its history that it was
too bad that it wasn't fortunate enough
to have superintendent of streets Of
Mr. Reiley's calibre so that it might
be able to make the best possible show
ing? With considerably less money
at his disposal and hampered by hos
tile elements he kept the streets In
good condition and when his term Of
Office expired he stepped aside and i'm.
mediately commenced to do something
else, and no committee had to be ap-
pointed to follow him up for anything
that belonged to the public. Mr. Kelley
proved himself an honest, competent
official in every position he has filled,
and as he is not seeking anything from
Blakeslee or Thoms there is no rea-
son why his name should be dragged
into the present contest, no more than
others who have acted for the city in
the past and did their work well.
The democrats will have a rally In
Waterville tomorrow night.
There will be a mass meeting of the
Hebrew Democratic club at 21S North

The republicans are cute set.
They have not even budged about the
real sharp edges which appear in
Candidate Thoms' speech of accept
ance. Isn't 1t funny that none Of
them has asked what Mr. Thoms
meant when he called attention to
unpaid city assessments? Whew, but
how they would make things hum If
Mr., Blakeslee had been In a position
to say such things about democrat.
But never MUD that, it's small mat

The democrats will be lucky IL the
republicans don't come along some of
these fine days and set up the claim
that they deserve some credit for the
high water service which put city
water within the reach of people on
the upper end of Dublin street and
other sections of the city, although the
whole plan was worked out and the
money to do it with provided for be-
fore the business administration came
into power. Mayor Elton reminded
the department of public works of this
fact when he submitted a report on
this matter signed by himself and Mr.
Cairns. The mayor very rnodestly re-
marked as he put forward the docu-
ment that the only connection he had
with it was to substitute his name for
that Of Mayor Kilduff, who with the
engineer had done all the preliminary
work. Even at that some will tell you
that the business administration in
augurated the elevated water service.
There is no truth at all in this.
