'WILL NOT SEND BALTIC FLEET. `

IANDQN, May 10-(S peclal)-The Odessa correspondent of The Standard declares

that Russia has abandoned the intention of sending the Baltic fleet to the far East

[The Russian comment after the fight-

-ing at Yalu that their defeat had "clari- iied- tba situation" is now qnitefapparent. Their forces arc in full retreat northward along the line of the railway and from Feng Wang Onenglndrthwestward to a common rallying point at Liao Yang. 'Whether tbey.will there give battle or

retire to Mnkden remains to be seen. History affords no more pltlable spectacle( than These armies of the mightlert mii- tary empire on earth choosing to retreat again and again rather than tight an ln- vading forcc that they profess to despise.)

who are following the war in the East with deep interest, are inclined to believe thatKuropstkin intends to carry out the plan suggested by him when he first went to the front. to retire altogether from Manchurls, establish the base on the eastern end of Lake Baiknl, and there

Many experts hold that this is the only

plan for the Rdssians to pursue with any chance of success. The impression is gaining ground that the Russian force in Manchurials too small to make any serious headway against the Japanese, and it is not believed that this force can be sufficiently increased under; present conditions to forestall the complete occupation cf Manchuria. I That the Japanese can be drawn outside the territ- ory in dispute is not believed. The risks would be altogether out of propartion to the possible gain. If this idea proves to be correct, the war may fall into a long

The hasty retreat from ` Feng Wang Cheng, the practical abandonment of New Qbwang,a_`md theconcsutrstion of all the Russian forces in the south at Liao Yang may be the first move towards a general falling back movement, though it is admitted that Kuropatkin may be

compelled bp pressure at home to give battle to the Japanese armies which are converging on his position. With Jap`an.ln .possession of Visdlvostok and Port Arthur, and with ample time to strengthen their position the task of driving them out will not be an easy one, unless Russia is shlc to wrest control of the sea from the Aslstios.
