.CONTRABAND OF WAR;
Russia Defines Her Position in
the Matter.
In Principle it Meets the Views Of
America and Great Britain Re-
garding Foodstuffs, Coal and
Other Fuel.

London, Sept 1.-THE foreign Of
fee has received dispatch from Am
bassador Hardinge, at st. Petersburg,
giving Russia's reply to the represen-
tations on the subject Of contraband
of war. Foreign Secretary Lansdowne
and Premier Balfour are both absent,
but Charles Hardinge's dispatch was
forwarded to them, and, pending their
action, nothing is available at the for
eign Office beyond general expression
of opinion that the reply goes a long
way toward settling up the question
as to what in the future may be prop
erly regarded as contraband. Accord
ing to the British view there are still
open certain questions of principle, but
it is believed that these will be ar
ranged in the course of further negc-
tiationS.
st. Petersburg, Sept. f7.-Russia, in
Count Lamsdorff's response to Am
bassador Hardinge, in principle, meets
the views of the American and British
governments regarding foodstuffs and
coal and other fuel as being condi-
tional contraband of war, distinctly
placing them in the category of ar
ticles susceptible of uses both in war
and peace, and, as such, only confis-
cable when consigned to blockaded
ports or destined for the military or
naval forces of the army. Shipments
in the ordinary course of trade by pri-
vate persons or firms, even to an
enemy's port, may be considered
prima facie not contraband; but upon
this point distinct reservation is made.
The simple fact of consignment by
private persons does not preclude the
possibility that the articles are not
ultimately destined for belligerent
forces, and Russia insists that it IS
not necessarily regarded as corcl'l-
sive evidence of the innocent char
acter of the goods.
In other words, irregular ships pa
rers or other suspicious circumstan-
ces, might vitiate the assumption of
innocent character; but where such
suspicion is raised the burden of proof
to warrant legal seizure is to rest
upon the captor
Count LamSdOrf'S reply was not
presented in written form, but was
communicated verbally to Ambassador
Hardinge.
1t will not involve public amend
nent of Russian contraband and prize
regulations, but in effect it becomes
az official Interpretation of the origi-
ma: regulation made by the commits
sion, composed of representatives of
the MINISTRIES of foreign affairs, ma
rine, war and justice, which consid
cred the subject in connection with
the objections raised by the United
States and Great Britain, and as sutn
will hereafter govern naval command
ers and prize courts, which thus far
in the war have classed all articles
enumerated in article 6, Of the Rus.
sian regulations as absolute contra
band
Count Lamsdorff's victory in the
controversy while not absolutely COM
plete, is perhaps noteworthy as having
been achieved against powerful ad-
verse influences. At one time it seem
ed doubtful whether any concessions
could be obtained, but Thursday the
emperor sanctioned the decision which
Count Lamsdorff communicated to
Ambassador Hardinge Friday.
