RETURN FROM OUTING.
Sons of American Revolution Visit
Yorktown and Jamestown.

The Washington members of the Society
of the Sons of the American Revolution to
the number of 200 returned yesterday from
their annual outing, and report one of the
best times in the history of that historic
organization They left Washington last
Friday evening on the steamer Norfolk of
the Norfolk and Washington line and made
their first stop at Yorktown, which place
was reached early Saturday morning. From
there the party. which included many Ia
dies, went to Old Point. where a member
of the board of managers of the jamestown
exposition was met with.
The immediate result Of this meeting is
that a movemnt is under way for the Sons
of the American Revolution to erect
handsome building at the jamestown ex-
position, to be held in 1907. The party
reached jamestown about O'Clock Sat
urday afternoon and remained one hour.
Just to see the sights. The membrs were
entertained at jamestown by the Society
for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities.
The journey was resumed, and Old Point
was reached Saturday evening just in time
for dinner. at which the members of the
8. A. r. were the guests OF the board of
managers Of the jamestown exposition. Mr..
C. Bradley Johnson. president of the board.
presided at the long table, which was set
In the banquet room OF the Hotel Chamber
lin. Speeches were made by William Ham,
flton Bailey. president of the local society.
S. A. R.; Judge Goode of Virginia and Mr..
Wool of the exposition management. John
Paul Earnest. for the society, stated that
an effort would be made Immediately to in
terest all the societies of the 8. A R. in
the proposed building at jamestown, and
he believed the proposition would meet
with hearty response in all parts of the
country.
Mr.. Wool explained that the jamestown
exposition will be different from all other
expostionS held recently, because of the
fact that ii will not be commercial. but
purely historical. And being h storical, he
argued that a building of the Sons of the
American Revolution would be most appro-
pirate and most welcome
The party returned to Washington at
1890 am. Sunday. The trip was planned
and carried to a successful conclusion by
a committee of which Mr. John Speed
Smith was chairman.

THIRTEEN SHIPS LOST
RoJESTvENsKY's EFFECTIVE
FORCE CUT 90 PER CENT.

The Russian loss in ships was approx
Mately only SO per cent. but this showing
assumes more significant proportions when
II Is understood that four OF the eight bat
tleshtps Ave of the nine armored and pro-
tected cruisers. all three coast defense yes
sells. which are known In thiA country as
monitors, and three Of the thirteen destroy
ers are included in the list of Russian cas-
ualties. These thirty-three vessels COM
posed Russia's real fighting force. and the
loss among them was more than IS per
cent Eliminating the destroyers. which are
not classed as belonging to the line-of-battle
formation. the percentage Of loss to the
effective fighting force Is even greater. be-
ing an even 90 per cent.
According to the accounts received here.
the Russians lost nineteen vessels out of
a total fleet of fifty-eight vessels. What
has become of the remaining thirty-nine
vessels has not been reported, but II is
supposed that most of them escaped either
to make their way to vladivostok. where
they will be protected by Russian land
guns. or to neutral ports, where they will
be obliged to dismantle and remain out of
action for the remainder Of the war.
The vessels not included In the list Of cas-
ualtieS number. according to the latest in
formation as to the composition of Rojest-
vensky's fleet, battleshps. cruisers, 10
destroyers and - of the % other vessels,
which embraced auxiliary cruisers, veS-
sells of the volunteer fleet 10 transports. /
tank vessel, 1 repair vessel and 2 hospital
ships.
All that IS left in the way of fighting ma
terial of the once-splendd Russian fleet is
composed of eighteen vessels. ir curing the
ten destroyers which presumably escaped
on account of their high speed.
1t Is supposed here that most of the
auxiliary vessels of the Russian fleet did
not attempt to force the passage of the
m trait vxrith fha G.yl,f
but remained at Saddle Islands. sixty miles
southeast of Shanghai. If this turns out
to be the fact, these vessels will prob
ably take refuge in Chinese ports and be
informed until peace has been made.
The fate Of Admiral Rojestvensky Is I'M
known here. The only piece of news which
relates to him was contained in the mes
sage from the American naval attache at
Tokyo. He reported that tho admiral s
flagship was seriously damaged" but did
not say whether she had been captured.
