Chorus of Wise Critics.

Foreign observers sharply criticise
Admiral Rojestvensky and Rear Ad-
miral Nebogatoff despite the meagre-
ness of the knowledge of the details
and conditions which governed them.
Admiral Rojestvensky is criticised for
not sending his light cruisers and
transports by the northern straits, his
failure to arrange a cooperation with
the Vladivostock squadron and his
battle formation which consisted of
all the strong ships on the starboard
column and the weaker craft on the
port column. Rear Admiral Neboga-
toff's courage in surrendering on sun
day apparently without a fight is
questioned although it is admitted
that his ships were evidently badly
battered Saturday.
