RUSSIAN NAVY.
Received February 16, 10.30 a.m. LONDON, February 15. The newspaper "Russ" states that the Czar has sanctioned the expenditure of a hundred million pounds sterling on a naval scheme. The vessels will consist chiefly of Dreadnoughts. A St. Petersburg corr aspondent says the Duma's early consent to the scheme is improbable, owing to dissatisfaction with the naval administration. He adds that as the Russian yards are overtaxed the new Dreadnoughts will have to be built abroad.
