Extracts. Four submarines recently transported by rail from Libau to Sevastopol were commissioned on Wednesday [this was a Friday newspaper]. The Russian battleship PETER THE GREAT, which has been acting as a gunnery training ship, yesterday ran on a reef near Reval and was badly damaged. She was subsequently refloated, and will go to Kronstadt to be docked.
