MAY SEIZE

BELIEVED THE RUSSIAN
FLEET is MOVING
NORTHWARD.
RUSSIAN ADMIRAL WILL FIGHT
Ready to Accept Battle. His Destination
is in Doubt.

ot. petersburg, APR l3. (2:59
p. M. ~ Thenews Of the northW ard
movement Of Admiral Rojestven-
skys squadron and mis- evident in
tention to accept battle when Ad-
miral Togo chooses to offer it, has
for the presnt stilled all activities
in the direction of peace and the
foreign dispatches relating to the
voyage Of the squadron ARE follow
ed with the most intense interest.
The admiralty volunteers no infor-
nation regarding Rojestvensky's
plans, whether his immediate
destination is or not Cape Pedarn
Con the east coast of Cochin China)
but in naval circles the impression
prevails that the squadron will
will continue northward to the
straits of Fornoso, where if Ad-
miral Togo does not elect to give
battle or is defeated, Amiral Ro-
jestvensky's may sieze a temporary
base in Japanese territory and if il
is considered advisable he could
there await the arrival of Admiral
Nebogatoff's division.
1t isrumored that there is aforce
of riflemen on board the Russian
transports which could be landed
for the purpose of cooperating
with marines in the same fashion
that the United States. established
a base at Guantanamo, Cuba, in
1898. Other naval men think that
VIadvostok is the only base the
Russian admiral has in view.
There is an embargo of news
from Vlaevostok concerning the
Russian cruisers Rossie, Gromoboi
and Bogatyr and it is supposed
though the admiralty does not
confirm the supposition that they
have put to sea to effect a diver
sion and prevent mine laying.
Considerable irritation is .mani-
tested in naval circles at the ac-
tivity of British ships in Chinese
waters which are reported to be
steaming from Hong Kong to Sing
apore, and their action is attribu-
ted to desire to keep in touch
with the Russian squadron and re-
port its movements to the world at
large and to Great Britian's ally in
particular, as happened in the case
of the British armored cruiser SUIT
jeh which arrived at Singapore,
Straits settlements, yesterday and
reported having passed the Russian
second Pacific squadron at daylight
