St. Petersburg, Dec. 17.—Admira) | Rojestvensky, who during the Russo | Japanese war led the ill-starred Rus sian fleet around Africa to ultimate | defeat at the hands of the Japanese in the sea of Japan, is keenly inter- ested in the cruise of the American) battleship squadron. He talked Tues: | day with the correspondent of the As: sociated press on the matter. He, af-! ter outlining some of the difficulties | the American vessels would have to overcome, said he considered the voy- age to the Pacific to be entirely prac- ticable “It can be made safely either in time of peace or in time of war,” said Rojestvensky. “Sheltered harbors} are available for coaling and there is no fear of interference on the part of| any of the South American govern- ments, The passage of the St 3 ot | llan, especially in summer time, presents no difficulty to a skilled com: ! mander, This expedition differs from the trip of the Baltic fleet, in that we were obliged to coal at sea. We were not permitted to linger for even one day in the unfrequented bay of Annan without brusque orders from the French government and the English admiral to move on.” According to Admiral Rojestvensky the chief criterion of the success of the voyage will be Rear Admiral Evans’ ability to bring every vessel of the squadron to the various stopping places on scheduled time. The strag- gling due to mechanical defects, he said, will be hard to overcome. Toys Books Novelties Fancy Goods Notions A Christmas Surprise for Everybody !
