sea re a cruise. re-entered the roac 45ebastopol without having sight11 Turkish ships anywhere. On Oct. 29. at o'clock in the morning, the commander of the fleet received word from Odessa that at 3 o'clock boats with red and green lights, flying Russian flags, entered the port of Odessa
 Although the commands given on the Turkish torpedo boats were in Russian, the gunboat Kubanets, which was on the lookout, having received no reply to the stipulated signal, imme- diately opened fire. The other gunboat in the roads. the Donets, did not even have time to fire, but was sunk by the first Turkish torpedo.
 Fired on by the Kubanets, the Turkish torpedo boats swiftly took flight, losing one smekestack, and by their rifle fire infiicting insignificant damage upon the Kubanets and near by merchant vessels and upon a naph- tha tank.
 Having received the communica- ton from Odessa the commander of the fleet informed the coast batteries at Sebastopol of the presence of Tur- ldshe vessels in the Black sea and or dered trawlers sent to take precaM- tionary measures against the enemy s torpedoes.
 Toward o'clock in the morning, in 9. fog, the cruiser Goeben "~nroached Sebastopol and began bombardment. The coast batteries of the Russian forts replied vigorously. The Goeben's fire caused no damage in the road l stead.
