How the Battle Was Fought.

London, June 10.-The Toxic cor
respondent of the Times in an account
of the naval battle i'm the Straits Of
KOria, says:
admiral Togo entered the arena
with the best fighting material of his
own squadron, four battleships and
the cruisers Nishin and Kasuga, and
Vice Admiral Kamimura's squadron
of six armored cruisers. Togo steam
ing fourteen and Kamura sixteen
knots. The Russians opened fire at
1900 metres. 1t was wholly inef-
fectual. The Japanese reserved their
fire until within $500 metres, when
they fired six trial shots and scored
three hits. The battle then became
general. The Russians perpetually
essayed to force their way nOrthward,
but the japanese as constantly headed
them back, so the Russian course de-
scribed a loop, their ships filing pan.
the Japanese, who poured in a deadly
fire from three directions.
THE Russians maintained much the
higher rate of fire, but their aim was
bad and Intellectual. His squadron of
torpedo boats rushed from three
quarters, reserving their missiles till
within 300 metres and making prac-
tice so deadly that it redeemed all
previous failures

ST. Petersburg, June $40 p. m.
Emperor Nicholas has cabled the,
following message to Admiral Rojest-.
Vensky:
From my heart I thank you and
all the officers Of the squadron who
have honorably done their duty for
your unselfsh work for Russia and
for me- BY the will of the Almighty.
success was not destined to crown your
endeavors, but your boundless bravery
will always be a source of pride to the
country.
II wish you a speedy recovery. May
God console you all.
(Signed) NICHOLAS.
The peculiar wording of the message
is attracting attention. The restrtc-
ton of the Emperor's thanks to those
honorably doing their duty is tanning
the ugly talk regarding the surrender
OF ships and the conduct Of some Of
the crews. The messages of Admiral
Enquist and Captain Chagin, of the
Russian cruiser AlmaZ did not con-
tain any intimation of misbehavior on
the part Of the officers or crew.
