Bt. 25.No official publication of the Russian explanation of unfortunate affair, off Dogger bank is forthcoming up to; this time and the world" must wait until some time tbday to hear Vice Admiral Ro- est ven sky '8 vets ion of the-nr-ing upon the British fishermen.

Rojestvensky has communicated direct to the -em peror, but at o'clock last night the admiralty announced that it had not yet received a report At the same bonr the foreign office issued a statement eipressing the regrets of the government for the deplorable met dent, but explaining" that no formal action is possible until Admiral Ro- jestvensky official report of the affair has 'been received. i While no formal acttonhas heen taken, the deepest regret Is expressed In all quarters and the purpose of the governhient to make amends if Ro- Jesl vensky -shall be found to been In fault is proclaimed tn every governmental department.

It developed during the day tnat-tne admiralty had. sxroaRv-reases--- be lieve that an attempt would be tnaae tgalnst the- squadron during its passage through the great belt or the English channel. So specific was the information that even the present crisis has not diverted attention from the possibility of such an attempt being made. The failure of the steam trawlers with the nets out not to obey the signals- or the warsMps or th Bervonsness of the officers, who Imagined that the fishermen working on their nets were laying mines, may be responsible fof the blunder.

It is expected the-Russian govern ment will voluntarily offer the fullest 1C Is even hinted that the emperor today' will send a formal message 10 King; Edward conveying his profound sorrow for the incident and offering to make what reparation is possible as soon as the responsibility can be fixed, -s- In diplomatic' circles the gravity and delicacy of the situation is recog-sized.

ANESE POSITIONS. i Mukden, Oct. 23. The forces on the left again crossed the Shakhe river dn 21 and are now pushing forward towards the Japa nese positions; eBtrenchlnlf as" they advance The. same time, Russian batteries are continually bombarding the Japanese who can be plainly seen busily engaged in the making of trenches.

v' This plan of the Russians to en trench as they advance, was adopted because it was found In the recent big battle that 'it was impossible to advance' without some protection in the face of the Japanese shrapnel fire. The Russian batteries are now bet ter screened than? they were in former engagements, but the troops on both sides apparently make no great ef forts to conceal The Russians and Japanese armies are nbw separated by less than four miles and the whole field of Operations of both armies can be plainly seen, I The question "ofTueni serious one, The greater part of the Chinese corn has already been ttBed for fuel and for fodder, while most of the houses in the Chinese villages have been destroyed and their wood used for fuel.

Only Factor In Far Eastern, War I Japanese St.

Petersburg, Oct. 25. -There is no news of immediate importance from tbe far East. The indications are that boih sides are heavily entrenching, though it Is believed that General Ku ropatkin" will be ready for a forward move at an early moment unless heavy Japanese reinforcements compel him to remain on the defensive. Reports that Japanese reinforcements are ar riving, taken' in connection with the enfoTed inactivity of the Russian forces on arcotint of the weather, are felt to be a grave factor in the sltua tlon.

There is reason to believe that the Japanese are drawing heavily up on the Port Arthur army as well as on Japan, In hooes of securing a numeri cal superiority that will enable Field Marshal Oyama to inflict a crushing blow-- upon General Kuropatkln when hostilities, are resumed.
