The understanding is complete. Great Britain disclaimed any intention of trying to detain the Russian squadron, which could only be interpreted as a hostile act. It was never intimated to Russia that Vice Admiral Rojestvensky's recall would be demanded, and Great Britain never asked Russia to pledge herself to the punishment of any one. So far as future complications arc concerned the incident is regarded as closed, though there has been a slight hitch in the Russo-Anglo negotiations regarding matters relating to the international commission which has necessitated their transfer htDre. But they only cover minor points and are expected to be adjusted during the day.
