This New Danger to the Russian Ships That Have Recently Been So Active in Sinking Japanese Vessels Causes Grave Anxiety at St. Petersburg. LONDON, April 29.—The action of Russia’s Vladivostok squadron | In sinking a Japanese transport with 200 men on board has evidently itirred the Japs up to fresh naval activity. Official despatches from Admiral Alexieff to St. Petertbury to-day innounce'that Japanese warships were sighted six miles off Port Arthur last night, and that this morning ten Japanese cruisers and six torpedo boats were-seen in an adjacent bay. At the same time a Japanése squadron was sighted off Vladivostok, | \ indicating that the Japanese fleet has been divided in the following out of some new plan of action. CHASING VLADIVOSTOK FLEET. ‘Experts here agree that the squadron off Vladivostok fs the one which has been chasing the Russians ever since they discovered that they were out of Viadivostok. It was one of this fleet’s wireless messages which is sald to have first warned the Russians that the Japs were after them, and it was | While fleeing from it that the Russians came up with the Japanese trans- port which they sank with such large loss of life. With a Japanese:squadron before Vladivostok it is not believed that the Russians will leave the protection of the harbor again. There {s little | ‘hance of a fight unless the Russians should be reinforced. The object of he Japs in manoeuvring about Vladivostok is believed to be to prevent any nore sallies by the Russians in the zone of Japanese transport, activity. NEW MOVE CAUSES ANXIESY. 8T. PETERSBURG, April 29.—Viceroy Alexieff’s report that a Japanese squadron wes off Port Arthur, followed by another aunouncing that a squadron of Japenese ships was in sight of Vladivostok, aroused anxiety. Naval circles are speculating whether the enemy will venture to approach Viadivostok at closer range than last time. There are pergistent rumors of fighting on the Yalu River, but the Az] pociated Press correspondent is informed that no serious engagements have} aken place and that the fighting has been limited to affairs of outposts, ihe as mcnieee, contesting and harassing the Japanese advance.

M.—Seventy-three Japanese were killed or frowned as a result of the sinking of the Japanese transport Kinshiu Marn, which was torpedoed by the Russian armored cruiser Rossia at midnight Monday last. ‘The Kinshiu Maru parted from the convoy of torpedo boats in & fog on Monday and at 11.30 P. M. met the Russian fleet. She was prderéd to stop and the Rossia steamed alongside, summoned her navigat- ‘ng officer on board the Rossis and sent a searching party on board the port. This party discovered two companies of soldiers concealed be- and reported the fact to the Rossia. The latter discharged a torpedo, which struck the Kinshiu Maru amidships and broke her fn two. While the transport was sinking the soldiers on board of her rushed m deck and fired volleys from their rifles Into the Rossia, and as the Kinehiu Maru sank several of the soldiers committed suicide. ‘Three boats which floated free from the wreckage were the means of taving forty-five soldiers and nine of the Kinshiu Maru’s passengers and trew. . Two captains and three Ileutenants were among the soldiers drowned, The survivors succeeded in getting ashore and were conveyed by steamer to Gensan to-day.
