Small Naval Engagement Said to
Have Occurred.
London, April 17.-There is as yet
no news of a naval battle in the far
East, or of the whereabouts of the
rival fleets. The Hongkong CORE
spondent Of the Daily Mail sends

are too meager to be instructive Ac-
cording to the Daily Mails Singapore
correspondent the North German
Lloyd steamer Prinz Heinrich saw
i've battleships and six cruisers in the
bay, but the dispatches to other of
the London morning newspapers, are
not SO precise. The Daily Tele-
graphs Singapore correspondent, like
the Associated Press, merely reports
eighteen vessels and adds that the
captain of the Prinz Heinrich states
that possibly more warshps were in
side the harbor but that they were
invisible from the offing.
The presence of the Russian squad
ron off the AMMAN coast is arousing
keen interest here, in view of the
possibility of their infringing Chinese
neutrality and of the likelihood of Ro.
jestvensky having had to split his
squadron. The Morning Posts CORE
spcndent. at Shanghai telegraphs that
China has instructed the governors Of
the southern provinces to maintain
strict neutrality in view of the posi-
bility of the Russian ships sheltering
there.
