Russians Ordered to Move On.
Saigon, Cochin China, May 10.—The
Russian cruiser Jemtsehug and the
Russian auxiliary cruiser Rion belong
ing to Admiral Rajestvensky’s squad
ron arrived off Ca.pe St. James,, near
here, during the night of May 8, aind
left yesterday morning at the request
of the governor of French Indo China.
These cruisers which brought in
structions for Rear Admiral Neboga-
toff. anchored ” or 1 miles off shore.
A heavy sea was running, exposing a
good deal of the warships hulls which
were quite free from barnacles or sea
weed. The ships appeared to have un
usually large crews and the men all
seemed in good health.
The main Russian squadron is said
to be well provisioned, but are short
of tobacco and cigars.
It is considered likely here that Ne-
bogatoff's division has already passed
the cape.
The hospital ship Kostroma whose
arrival here was announced May 8,
