Tokio has advices that late yesterday evening a naval battle had occurred at foit Arthur. While no details are obtainable oth er than that the ; fight is said to have followed a sortie on the part of the Russian squadron, the belief prevails that tbere can ne OA aWPMttii;;anii.tha mll-AStiasa nnt vessels, as is well known, are in no eondition to meet Admiral Togo's well-equipped and : thoroughly pre pared fleet. In addition to this the Rugsian8 are feriatly inferior in numbers. A Eortie at this time by the Rus sian fleet would have peculiar sig nificance, as it would indicate the land forces had found their position had become untenable, . and the fall of the stronghold ?B now expected to fall auicklv. !: It has been etated on numerous occasions lately,' and on the best of authority, that the battle-torn fleet bottled up in the harbor of the port would make no further attempt to escape, until the latt hope of relief orholding out had gone. - Free Bus.
