New York, Nov. ls.-The Evening Sun

North sea affair.
Both countries, the correspondent says
have come to a settlement on the ques-
tons Of responsibility Of officers and
punishment Of such as may be found TO
have been responsible. No details are
published. 1t is said, however, that the
terms Of the convention have been some
what elaborated by Russia, an introduc-
ton to them being added explaining the
object Of the suggested limitations q
the powers of the commission.
Clause 2 of the convention has been
modified. That IS the clause which pro-
lyides that the commission shall report
on all the circumstances relating to the
disaster, aud establish the responsibility
An interesting note has been added
declaring that Russia and Great Britain
have framed the convention with par
lticular care, in order that il may, per-
Ihaps, form precedent for other eoun-
