No General Engagement
Expected for a Few Days

LONDON. April 16.-Up to an early
hour this morning absolutely no news
had been received from the opposing
fleets in Far Eastern waters, and the
belief is growing that there will be no
general engagement for some few days
at least
This fact is urged by naval strate-
gists, who profess to have discussed the
matter with Japanese naval experts
and is said to be due to the desire of
Admiral Togo not to risk his fleet
against the Russian batleships unless
absolutely compelled so to do Inciden-
tally 1t is stated that If Rogesjvensky
shows a desire to sail direct to Vladivo-
stok he will be permitted TO reach there
without having to fight the main Japa-
nese fleet.
With the Russian admiral In the har-
Dor at Vladivostok Togo would resume
the tactics he SO thoroughly carried out
at Port Arthur, and would try TO pen
him up in the harbor until siege guns
could be mounted on land and placed
where they could be directed against
the Russian fleet in the harbor BY this
method the Japanese could retain con-
troll Of the sea, and their lines of COM
munication in Manchuria would be safe
