Battle ThA& Decided War.
The battle Of the Sea Of Japan,
which decided the Russo-Japanese
war. was fought May ~ and 20, 1905,
OF Tsu island. In the eastern channel
Of Korea strait. Russia's neet was
commanded by Admiral Rojestvensky
and Japan's by Admiral Togo. At
the beginning Of the fight Togo sig.
nailed to his ships:
THE destiny Of our empire depends
on this action. You are all expected
to do your utmost"
J .Rojestvensky's faulty disposition Of
his ships in double line, with his
cruisers between his battleships and
the ansmy, was disastrous error.
The Russians seeing they would be
beaten, tried to escape. The fight
and pursuit lasted all of the after
noon Of May 81 and all day May 2S
IT resulted In the humiliation Of the
Russian sea force, Three vessels OF
tho line-the Aurora, Oleg and Fem
chug under Admiral Enquist-
escaped and reached Manila, All the
others were destroyed or captured ex-
cept two crippled vessels that reached
vladivostok.
i Russia's losses IN men were $500
kflled and 1000 prisoners. Japan's
LOSSES In ships were three torpedo
boats and in men the total casualties
were abeut 1000. That ended Rus
sia's hopes OF victory and few weeks
later the negotiations were opened
which resulted in the treaty Of Ports
mouth.

Such a testimonial and coming
from this source Is one of great en-
couragement to those working for a
reduction. The inspector for the
state board of underwriters, William
Gilsdorf. has been expected here for
weeks, but he wrote from Henderson
that he would have to go to Lexing-

ably be here several months. The
