The Osliabya and the transport Saratoff, with three destroyers, have left Suez for the Far East. The Russian fleet has returned, and is now lying outside Port Arthur. It is believed it was intended to throw troops into Chemulpho, but a large Japanese fleet was sighted off Wei-bai-wei. The reserves in the Russian Pacific Squadron have been commissioned. Russia has engaged eighteen additional foreign steamers to convey coal and munitions from Odessa to the Far East.
