The influence and power of reliability
has been demonstrated by Japan. In the
case Of Admiral Rojestvensky the an
ilotnicement from Toxic was that he was
a prisoner and wounded. Several tele-
grams from St. Petersburg denied this
report and alleged that the admiral had
reached Nlaidvostok, but was wounded
So great was the persistence Of Russia
in this declaration that many were ready
to accept it as a fact, but those who had
confidence i'll Toxic did not hesitate tc
believe the report Of the capture of Ro,
jcstvensky as authentic. The mora
from such conclusion is plain and applies
