DEMAND THE RECALL
OF JIOJESTVENSKYS SHIPS.
"Cashler.the officers responsible and re
call, the Baltic fleet." are the demands
made by an Important section of the Lon
don, press this morning.
Whether the" British Government will go
so far there is as yet no means of know
ing, but' the newspaper editorials all Indi
cate that nothing' less will be satisfactory.
Forjlnstance, the Morning Post says:
"The only course seems to us to be to
demand that all officers In any way re
sponsible either for the outrage or the
subsequent sailing on of the fleet should
be cashiered.
"Great Britain could not be expected to
treat with the courtesy due to foreign
navies a service In which such officers
twere retained. This, and the formal In
terruption of" the voyage which the Ad
miral has continued as though nothing
had-7 happened, appear to us to be the
minimum demands that the British Gov
ernment can' possibly make."
"Notwithstanding the acute state of the
popular feeling In this country." says the

4 The warships which Great Britain could assemble at any point within
4 the English Channel at a few hours' notice are distributed in three squad-
4 rons, known, as the Home Fleet, the Channel Fleet and the Cruiser Squad-
ron. The Home Fleet consists of eight battleships and five cruisers; the
4 Channel Fleet consists of six battleships and six cruisers; and" the Cruiser
4 Squadron consists of seven cruisers.
4 The commander in chief of tho Home Fleet has complete and contln-
4 urius command of, the home destroyer flotillas. There are thus thirty-two
4 battleships .and cruisers, besides the torpedo destroyers, a class In which
4 the British Navy is particularly strong.
4 The Mediterranean Fleet, whlch'could be brought to bear on any hostile
4 fleet passing through or near the Straits of Gibraltar within two or.
4 three days. Is composed of twelve battleships, fourteen cruisers and twenty
4 torpedo-boat destroyers, together with torpedo boats, supplementary ves-
4 scls, storeships and the like.
4 During the last fifteen years tho officers and men of the navy and
4 marines have Increased from about 60,000 to 120,000. Several navies among
w the other Powers are more .powerful to-day than the British Navy was
4 fifteen years ago, but the relative standard has been maintained.

Cherbourg. Oct. ia. Pour Russian
torpedo boats and -a Russian trans-
port sailed this evening. There is no 4
4 longer any.. Russian vessel in thi3
port. i -
It Is believed that the entire
4 squadron has gone on westward, In-
tending to stop either at-Brest or
at Vigo, Spain.
4 The only torpedo boats which
proceeded with the squadron put In
here, and three of these. It now de-"5
4 velops, proceeded on theIr"voyage at
4 10 'o'clock this morning.
' The Russians who "were hero
claim that their squadron was nav-
li-atlng through a thick fog the
night of October 21-22, and Cred
$ their guns In neutral waters for
the purpose of keeping In touch
with each, ether. The Russians ap- ,
4 pear to be not aware that any Brit- 4
lsh fishing boats were 'hit.
. '
Russian Government has not already
tendered an expression of deep regret for
what the King truly describes as -a Ia
mentablo occurrence, and.cdds:
"That the Russian" Government will
sooner or later and -we sincerely trust it
will be sooner offer .an apology' and""in
demnlfy, so far as such is possible, to the
victims, we do not for a moment doubt,
but it is our duty to add that the case
cannot be allowed to rest upon that
statement. It admits, in the first place,
of no delayi and if an explanation and
apology be not ample and speedy, the
British Government would. In our opin
ion, have no alternative" as the'organ of a
self-respecting nation, with great' Inter
ests at stake, but to prevent the further
cruise of the offending-squadron."

publican as things stand to-day. I know
it has been cofldently claimed by suppos

months old, and the record is considered

13 to be put in force Immediately. Yester
day a circular letter, signed by President
Francis, was sent to the heads of "epart
ments directing them to put into effect
means, of reducing the outlay.
President Frandsfs letter stated that
at a recent meeting of the Executive
Committee the prospects of the Exposi
tion had been duly considered, and that
as a result heads of departments were
Instructed to cut down all expenditures
practicable in their branches of the serv
ice. This Is considered absolutelyneces
sary, according to" President Francis.
The daily operating expenses of the Falr
.amount to about $65.00.
They were especially counseled to re
duce the purchase of supplies for their
departments to the minimum, and to cut
down their office forces wherever possi
ble without waiting for the end of the
This latter clause of the letter is taken
to Indicate a wholesale dismissal of em
ployes, such as occurred, last July, when
the Initial retrenchment of expenses was
Inaugurated. t . ...
In many departments of the Exposition
the work is practically finished, save for
the rendering of a final report, which may
be accomplished by the chief of the de
partment. This Is notably the case in the
Ceremonies, Reception and Entertainment,
Pres and Publicity and Domestic Ex
ploitation departments. '
Of the departments that will remain to
the end of the Fair there are all of tho?e
ln-the divisions of Exhibits and of Works,
those of the Division of Concessions and
Admissions, the Auditing. Medical. Sup-
flies and Jefferson Guards departments-,
n these departments many assistant
chiefs and superintendents of bureaus
probably will go by the board before the
end of- the Fair.
There are several departments -which
probably will be maintained even after
the close of the Fair. These are the
Legal. Treasurer's. Auditing. Transporta
tion and several departments in the" Di
vision of Works. A contingent of the
Secretary's office probably will be retained
after the Fair, as the Secretary's depart
ment will take on all the functions of
