Throe hundred mechanics and dry dock yards artificers wen sent to the Far East last week and exprna declare that the boats could be built, sent and fitted out there ln eight months. After all, however, the hopes and hearts of the Russians are centered in their army, and with General Kuropat-ki- n at its head, although he has not faced a foe since the siege of Plevna, victory is considered assured. and The war excitement here throughout Russia generally seems to be dying down. The patriotic demonstrations which everywhere followed the outbreak of hostilities have been succeeded by calmness on the part ot the people, but the crowd still eagerly gather about the bulletins from Viceroy Alexieff, which are posted la various parts of the city, and which are Issued soon after they are received. The frankness with which the government publicly announced the initial reverses, aa well as the stringent measures taken to prevent the dissemination of all false reports of successes, Is perhaps the beet evidence of the complete confidence which the authorities have in the loyalty of the people. An Interesting Incident occurred on the day the news was received of the inking of the four steamers with which the Japanese sought to block th eentrsneo to tha harbor of Port Arthur. The original report was to the effect that four battleships and two transports had been sunk, and thle caused so much enthusiasm that a session of the council immediately ordered a Te Deum. A member of the council Just from ths Winter palace burst Into the session and said: "Gentlemen, countermand the order. Only four old steamers were sunk. Tha Emperor dose not wish a thanksgiving service to be held. In connection with this attempt on Port Arthur a story Is current here that the steamers sent la were painted to represent warships, sad that on arriving close to the channel they dropped contact mines. This story, however, lacks confirmation from any authoritative source. London, Feb. 29.
