that 1t has been decided unanimously
to continue the struggle along the same
lines.

To the rum room.
The eXpreSSman assured the liquor
deputies that the box. was all right.
but the officers seized it. They inquired
of the minister IL he had ordered any
liquor from Boston and he told them
that he had not.
The eXprcsSman went to the clergy
man and asked him if he was expect

POSSIBLY NECESSARY,
Rojestvensky May Have Been Obliged
to Sink a Neutral,

st. Petersburg, May 2S.-11.10 p. NJ.
Nothing is known at the admiralty
of the reported sinking of an unknown
steamer off F'ormosa by Vice Admiral
Rojestvensky. 1t is recognized at the
admiralty as quite possible that Ro-
jCstvensky may nave been compelled
by military necessity to destroy n
neutral. If he feared that to allow 1t
TO proceed ana report the whereabouts
and direction of the Russian fleet
would endanger his strategetic plan he
had no other alternative except to take
off the crew and sink the ship.
Such an incident is unfortunate but
every naval officer must admit that the
risk in such a crisis is too great to
permit of any chances being taken.
II the ship was unjustifiably sunk. from
the standpoint of International law
Russia, of course. will have to foot the
bill; but any cost is cheap IL it fur

ST. PETERSBURG DISCOURAGED.

st. Petersburg, May 29.-2.15 A. Nj
At this moment the Emperor, the adj
miralty ana the Russian public are
waiting brcathlessly for the Japanese to
furnish authentic news of the fate of
Vice Admiral Rojestvcnsky and his
fleet IN which the hopes OF the Russians
are ccntCred. The official disposition is
to cpnstrue Tokio's silence favorably,
but at the sane time. the strategic rca-
son for such silence is recognized.
The public, after the premature re-
port of Saturday night, is inclined to
reverse its attitude and to become pes
ssslristIc. The report sent to Washing
tor by the American consul at Nagasa-
XII Of the sinking of five Russian war
ships. including battlcship and repair
ship was accepted as the most definite
and the most authentic piece of news
received up to midnight and undoubted-
~ produced bad impression. The fear
was expressed that the battleship sunk
might have been Rojcstvensky's flag
ship, the KniaZsouvaroff, or which the
Japanese would undoubtedly concern
tratc their fire.
The sinking of the repair ship Kam-
chatka which was filled with the most
modern machinery, might, it was
thought, prove later II he Il more severe

opinion was expressed that if Rojest-

sea Of Japan with no greater loss than
that reported by the American consul.
The passage had not been dearly pur-
chased, especially if later reports shoul
prove that the Japanese losses were
anything like equal proportions.
Probably no one in Russia displayed
such intense anxiety as the Emperor

The only news received by His Ma

THE GREAT BATTLE.

"
According to the latest information.
the battle between the Russian AMI
japanese naval forces for the supreme
cy of or control of the seas ir
which hangs the outcome of the Far
Eastern struggle, has begun. if it has
not terminated decisivcly.
All tie dispatches received by The AS
socitcd Press point to a Japanese vic
tory. though il is not yet known wheth-
er the full force of Vice Admiral Ro-
jcstvcnsky's fighting ships took part in
the contest which, according to the dis
patches, took place in the comparatively
narrow waters of the straits of Corea.
The first information came in dis
patch from the American consul at
Nagasaki to the state DEPARTMENT at
Washington, telling that the Japanese
had sunk one Russian Eattleship, four
other warships and repair ship in the
COrcan straits, and this was followed
by d dispatch received by the state de-
partmcnt. the date Of which was not
had made the announcement that its
fleet had engaged Nh" Russians in the
straits of Corea, Saturday, and had
held them"
The state department also received in
formation that two of the vessels re =
ported to have been sunk were the sis
ter hattlcships Orel and Borodino and
that three Of the other ships were
cruisers.
From Tsingtau. tho German port on
the Shantung peninsula, came a report
that a running naval engagement took
place near the island Of Oki in the sea
of Janan. 200 miles northeast of the
strait Of Corcl. and that the whole Rus
sian fleet did not participate. the slow
vessels having been sent around Japan.
Russian sources give ne news of the
battle, while the japanese government
following its custom. is silent as to
either the battle or its outcome.
London, May 29-The Toxic COR
respondent of the Daily Mail, says that
the Russian fleet has been dispersed.
that several Russian ships have been
disabled and that The remainder are
in flight with The Japanese pursuing.
Many dispatches from Toxic and
other points appearing in this morning 5
newspapers are filled with more or less
authentic details of recent movements
OF Vice Admiral Roiestvcnsky's ships
and surlnises and rumors Of the result
Of the battle between the Japanese and
Russian fleets, but add nothing to the
received by The Associated
Press from it's correspondents.
According TO the Daily Telegraph, n
private telegram was received in Lon
don. last night. in very high quarter
to the effect that the Vie Admiral Togo
had gained a, great victory.
Based on the meagre details already
received here, most of the newspapers
are ready to believe that the Japanese
have secured victory.
The secrecy maintained at Toxic APP
parently extends to the European lega-
lions. At any rate Baron Hayashi the
japanese minister here. declined to see
newspaper correspondents. much less
