ADMIRAL SENTENCED.
Death Penalty for Russian Officers
Who Surrendered.

st. Petersburs.-The court-martial
which has been trying Rear Admiral
Nebogatof and seventy-eisht officers
of his squadron for surrendering to
the Japanese at the battle of the Sea
Of japan, May IS, 1905. handed in its
decisions Monday.
Vice Admiral Nebogatoff. Com
mander Lichino of the coast ironclad
General Aprain, Rear Admiral Gregg
rieff of the coast defense ship Admiral
Senivian, and Lieut.. Smirnof, who
succeeded to the command of the bat
tleship Nicolai, were sentenced to
death, but in view of extenuating cir
cumstances and the long and other
wise blameless careers of these Off
GERS, the court will petition to EN-
peror Nicholas to commute their sen
fences to ten years Imprisonment i'll
a fortress.
Four other officers are sentenced to
short terms of Imprisonment in a fort
ress. while the remainder are &C
quilted of the charges brought against
them.
The trial of Rear Admiral Neboga-
toff and The officers of his squadron
began in St. Petersburg, December 5th.
The accused were divided into three
categories. First. Rear Admiral Nebo-
gatoff and the commanders of the bat
tlcships; second, the officers who ad-
vocated the surrender; third, the OIL
GERS who did not endeavor to prevent
the surrender.
The first group of officers was tried
under the paragraph of the navy regu-
lations which provides for the punish
ment by death of any commander of a
squadron or ship who surrenders
without Il fight when he could save his
crew or inflict damage upon the
enemy.
The sentences passed upon Rear Adj
miral Nebogatoff and the three com
manders are similar to those handed
down IN the cases of the naval officers
