MINISTER oRIscoM's REPORT.
Before the receipt Of Admiral Togo's re-
port Minister Griscom had sent the follow
ing:
1T is officially announced that all the
Russian battleships have been sunk e1-
oept the Orel and the Nicolai l.; which
were captured.
"Admirals Rojestvensky, volkersam and
Niebogatoff are all prisoners.'
Much qualification Is expressed here over
the personal safety OF Rojestvensky. who
is regarded as brave man. determined TO
do his duty no matter at what cost to his
reputation or his person.
CAPTURED SHIPS IN PORT.
The japanese Legation received the fol-
lowing despatch this morning from the
Foreign Office at Toxic:
-Four Russian war vessels. captured by
US, safely brought to the naval ports Of
Japan, May 80. Orel, battleship. to port OF
Maizuru; Nicholas l., battleship; Apraxin.
coast defender; Seniavin, coast defender.
to port Of Sasebo.'
There is a growing conviction that many
OF the Russian converted cruisers, trans
ports, supply vessels and other auxiliaries
did not attempt to force the passage Of the
Tsu Shima Straits with the fighting craft
under Rojestvenskys command, but re-
NAMED out Of harms way at considerable
distan CO In the rear OF the battle line, await
ing the outcome Of the en- agement and
probably fed along the course over which
they came when they saw that their con-
sorts were getting the worst Of it.
This idea is borne out to some extent by
the information which came to the STATE
Department to-day from the United States
Consul General at Shanghai that the con-
verified cruiser Smolensk had arrived at
Wusung, which Is Shanghais port. The
official reports received yesterday had two
transports and one special ship in the list
Of Russian losses, but this does not change
the opinion referred to. In naval circles
it is expected that several OF the au1iliaries
will be found to have escaped scot free
and will appear at Wusung or some
other neutral port with the request that
they be dsmantled and retained In custody
until the conclusion Of host ilities, as those
left at Wusung have done.
