Tokio Oct. 6. Tokio has advices

battle had occurred at foit Arthur.

have followed a sortie on the part
of the Russian squadron, the belief

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. -
