The admiral added that Vice Admiral
skrydloff prudently established himself
ashore at VladivOstok Notwithstanding
his opportunity to break the Ineffective
blockade Of Port Arthur. Lockinsky de-
cared he would denounce Stoessel,
snydofl and AleXeff before the court

self be made a scapegoat like Rear Ad-
miral OuktOmsky who now trembles
with fear in a Chinese hospital" Lock-
insky cited many instances of the UNI
preparedness Of the land and naval de-
lenses. frequently conflicts Of authority
and generalization during the critical
engagements
Substantially the same account is
given by four French newspapers which
describe Gen. Stoessel and Admiral
LOckmsky as refusing to speak to or
salute each other The papers say the
dscord among the officers foreshadows
grave scenes before the court-martial.
The Petit Parsien quotes Gen. Stoes-
eel as sarcastlcally saying:
"Roiestvensky had better not estab-
sh a too secure base along the route
or like the naval officers at Port Ar

The correspondent Of the Petit Par

Gen. Stoessel cannot pardon the
Nays failure to succor him, while the
navy fully returns his hatred"
The French special correspondents
conclude that the fortress fell largely
because Of the regrettabe quarrels
