Memorandum from the Office of Naval Intelligence

The Office of Naval Intelligence reports on the positions of the opposing armies in Manchuria in the previous week. The Russians advanced to the vicinity of Changtu and Kaiyuen, falling back again to their former position. A delay in repairing the railroad bridge across the Hun River, in addition to the opening of the railroad to traffic, may account for the failure of the Japanese to advance beyond Kaiyuen. Nothing definite has been reported in regard to the absolute whereabouts of either the Russian or Japanese fleet.

O’Laughlin also cautions Roosevelt regarding a trip to Japan planned by Secretary of War William H. Taft and Alice Roosevelt, which Cassini believes will provoke hard feelings in Russia.
