April S.~—'l‘he sudden shifting of interest in the war front the land to the sea and the apparently imminent prospects of u fateful but‘ tie between the Russian and Japan- ese squadrons in the (‘hina Sen have revived all the interest shown here in the earlier developments of the strug- gle in the Far East. It is taken for granted that Admiral Togo‘s ships re- ported to be in the neighborhood of Singapore In the middle of March are still in that vicinity anti the report from Penung twest coast of the Malay Peninsula) that tWelvc Japanese ships were. seen steaming ahead of the Russian warships is interprctcd to mean that the former are scouts sent out by Togo to get in touch With the Russians and when their object is accomplished to retire on Ihe main body of the Japanese squadron. The reports about the numbers of the Russian ships vary. but at any rate over thirty-five battleships. cruis. ere. coiiiers anti torpedo boats have passed the. port of Singapore. The underwriters here presume from the northeasterly course they were steer- ing that after passing Singapore the Russian ships are attempting to reach the French port of Saigon.

William ll. llt‘irnbitm'er, representing the directors. declared that. while lie was prepared Io argue the question of the issuance of an injunction on points of law he was unprepared to go into questions affecting the business of the. society. Mr. Hornblower said that the mutu- alization amcudmcut was not approu cd by the directors until after unlit-c, of the complaint brought by Mr. Lord had been served upon them; but be- fore the order of the court had iil'i‘ll The notice oil the complaint was serv- ed pun the directors on April 5. it was stated. and Mr. Shepard declared that an attempt was hastily made to drive through the charter amendment on April ti. it was agreed to put the hearing over until Monday. with the under- standing that the directors of the Equitable would make no further move toward mutuailzatlon until after the hearing.
