HOT RUNNING FIGHT. Nevertheless although suffering the complete loss of four ships in the Geeperate encounter which followed and being mubjected to a series of torpedo attacks Saturday night, Rolestvensky was able to steam 200 miles during the night. When Sunday morning came the Russian fleet was divided into two| visions, | The faster and stronger division, winder Rojestvensky, was met hy Kamimura and Uriu, while tho slower division, under Nebogatoff, re- newed the fight with Togo. With rome of the scattered Russian units it ‘was a case of save himsclf who can, In the running fight yesterday the Japanese enjoyed the advantage of superior speed, enabling them to concentrate their fire and bring every | erippled Russian ship to bay, Admiral Nebogatoff's battered remnant surrendered off Liancourt Rocks, while Rojestvensky, with the best remaining battleships, fought on for the honor of the Russian Navy, : The Admiralty learned with a sense of relief that the flagship Kniaz Bouvaroff wank under the feet of the Russian Commander-in-Ohief. The @urrendet of Nebogatoff’s two battleships, even though the ciroumstances fare npt yet known, is regarded as a disgrace, The ships still unaccounted for here are the battleships Navarin and the protected cruisers Oleg, Aurora and Izumrud, all fast vessels, The Russian hospital ship Orel, which was with Admiral Rojestven- * sky's fleet, has also arrived at Vladivostok, ST, PETERSBURG, May 30,—The report that the Kniaz Suvaroff, flagship of the Russian fleet which was defeated by the Japanese in the Straits of Corea, was sunk and that Admiral Rojestvensky was wounded and placed on board a torpedo-boat destroyer, is confirmed. The cruiser Almaz is the only ship of the Russian fleet absolutely known to have arrived at Vladivostok, although, according to unofficial reports, several others escaped. Fighting Still Going On. LONDON, May 30.—A special despatch from Kobe, Japan, says that ; hundreds of Russians, many of them badly wounded, are coming ashore \ at Yamaguchi (on the coast of Japan, opposite the Straits of Corea) in boats or clinging to wreckage. i BATTLE STILL ON. NAGASAKI, May 30—11 A, M.—Fighting continues off Okino Island. The Russian war vessels seen and reported by the Occidental and Oriental Company's steamer Doric, which has arrived here, were the Izumrud, a cruiser of the Aurora class, and a gunboat, probably the Ka- zarsky. The latter was leaking. TSARSKOE-SELO, Russia, May 30—6.20 P. M.—A despatch re- ceived by the Emperor from Vladivostok to-day containing: details of the battle in the Straits of Corea announced heavy losses, according to which the squadron commanded by Rear-Admiral Nebogatoff was attacked by a swarm of torpedo-boats and all the ships were elther sunk or captured, The main squadron, commanded by Admiral Rojestvensky, was at- tacked by Admiral Togo and lost two ships. The others broke through. Rojestvensky, it is reported, then sent his fast llght cruisers ahead, the heavier fighting ships remaining behind. They were attacked by Vice- Admiral Kamimura. i The Emperor was greatly distressed at the news, BLOWN UP BY SUBMARINE. TOKIO, May 30—Capt.

MINISTER TAKAHIRA—Ask Russia if the hour of peace has come, It {9 to Russia that the initiative toward peace is to be looked for.

Definite News for Czar. ST, PETERSBURG, May 30—3 P. M.—The first definite news from Russian sources of the naval battle fought in the Straits of Corea came from Capt. Chagin, of the cruiser Almaz, who has arrived at Vladi- vostok, He telegraphed the Emperor that he had witnessed the sinking of the battle-ship Kniaz Suvaroff and reported that Admiral Rojesvensky was wounded, . ti Capt. Chagin saw Rojestvensky lowered on board the torpedo-boat destroyer Buiny and sald the Admiral presumably was saved, The Buiny, however, had not reached Vladivostok when Capt, Chagin sent his telegram, and her whereabouts was not known, Battered Ship at Woosung.

George H. White, of No, 22 Morris street, Jersey City, who was asso- elated with John P. Holland in the construction of four submarine boats, which were built in Jersey City, says these boats wrecked the Russian fleet It will be recalled that there was considerable excitement over a shipment of alleged machinery for Japan that went over the Canadian Pacific Railroad last spring, There wore rumors that Ruesian spies had attempted to blow up the train containing this consignment. Mr, White eaid to-day that these mysterious packages contained the four Holland ewbmarines for the Japanese Government. They were ac- compamied to Tokio by a corps of skilled American engineers and me- chanics employed at fabulous salaries, not only to put the boats together at a secret Japanese shipyard, but to operate them in the next naval battle, Mr. White says that the boats were launched on May 10, and that | they proved more than satisfactory in their trial tests, They were equipped | day. trade route for Northern Manghuria since | with improved torpedo tubes and also with searchlights for use when moving beneath the surface, Admiral Togo, Mr. White says, attached them to his fleet and placed upon them his chief dependence in destroying the squadron of Rojestvensky, Despathces from various sources about the scene of the great battle refer to a mysterious force in the battle—a force that operated upon the bat- tle-ships of the Russians from beneath. The armored cruiser Admiral Nak- himoff was blown up near Tsu Island Saturday with not a Japanese warship in aight. Commanders of the other ships who were captured by the Jap- anese after the destruction of their vessels tell a similar story, “It was the submarines,” sald Mr. White, in his J y City workshop to- “They were sent there for a pwrpoee.

ST. PETERSBURG, May 80.—So far as the newspapers are concerned, the public might believe Vice-Admiral Rojestvensky had achieved a victory, ‘The censor passed all the vague rumors favorable to the Ruseinns, but blue-pencilled everything indicating a Russian disaster, While the disastrous news was spread like wildfire by word of mouth over the capital and was quickly telegraphed privately to the big centres by the anti-Government leaders, the country can be said to be still in a state of ignorance as to what has happened, The editors of the Liberal papers here, being conversant with the contents of the Tokio despatches, warn thelr readers in a roundabout fashion aga(net harboring false hopes based upon despatches which appear in their news columns, The Bourse Gazette quite openly declares it would be a sin to conceal the fact that all hope of Russia obtaining the mastery of the sea has vanished, adding: “The significance of the eollapse of this hope is self-evident,” The Novoe Vremya and the Russ, while admitting that the fate of the Far Wast has been determined, decline to accept the Japanese reports, ‘Their editorials, however, breathe a tone of wnutterable sadness. 4 GAMBLING DENS RAIDED IN CHINATOWN Capt.
