has received a dispatch from Manila stating Admiral Train reports that a Russian hospital ship has put into Saigon Cochin China with a large number of wounded seamen on board This it is believed shows that the previous reports of collision between the Japanese and Russian fleets has occurred It is thought however the fighting has been torpedo attacks on Rojestvenskys squadron by the Japanese and that no general engagement has occurred Further details are eagerly awaited St Petersburg Denies It St Petersburg April 15The naval general staff says the hospital ship Orel has arrived in Saigon but declares she had no wounded seamen on board Tokio Too Tokio April 15The naval department denies that any engagement has been fought off Saigon Trains Dispatch Was the Latest Tokio April 15The naval departments denial of the fight in the China sea off Anambas Island was issued three hours before Admiral Trains dispatch was received at Manila Perhaps the Wounded Were Only Sick Washington April Notwithstanding the report received that a Russian I hospital ship has arrived at Saigon with wounded sailors on board many officers here generally do not believe that an engagement has yet taken place Although the dispatch distinctly stated wounded sailors were aboard it is believed I here the ship contained principally sailors who had fallen ill on account of Rojestvenskys long cruise in the tropics with possibly some who may have been wounded as the result of accident at target practice They point out that had a naval engagement occurred in time for the ship to collect the wounded and reach Saigon a report of it would certainly have been received before this Sending the hospital I ship to Saigon Is regarded however as indicating that Rojestvensky expects an early engagement If Theres Been No Fight There Soon Will Be 1 London April 15A dispatch to the Central Xews from Tokio says a state of seige has been officially declared to have existed since April 13 within the harbor limits in the vicinity of Makung in the Pengu Islands and the Pesca dores The locality was picked several days ago as the most likely scene of the coming conflict between the two fleets in case Rojestvensky tries to make for Vladivostok without going I into the Pacific The latest heard of i the Russian fleet it was steaming northward through the China Sea abreast of the Philippine Islands
