FESSENDEN WANTS TO
 GO TO HARTFORD ALSO
But From There He Wants to Go to Washington Stamford Republicans Will Nominate Him To- horrow-He Will Be In Hartford Then to Super- intend His Senatorial Fight

Stamford, Oct 25.-A new and inter- esting phase of the contest between ex-Governor Morgan G. Bulkeley and Samuel Fessenden for the United States senatorship is presented to- day by the announcement that the 27th senatorial district republican con yention here tomorrow will nominate MT Fessenden. Two reasons are g1v- en by his friends who desire to nomin- ate him. One is that while they have the belief that he will be elected as a successor to Senator Joseph R. Flaw ley, they wish to honor him by elect ing him to the upper branch of the state legislature, and secondly they believe it is advisable for him to be personally on the ground when the contest takes place in the legislature

PRESS IS s1LBNT.

s 2
 St Petersburg, Oct p 7:51 a. m.)- The press as a whole is significantly silent regarding the North Sea tragedy. The papers generally publish without comment foreign telegrams concerning the sinking of the trawlers, indicating a desire not to embarrass the govern ment or complicate an already extreme Iy delicate situation by any expression of opinion before all the facts on both sides shall have been ascertained.
 One exception, however, is, the Novoe yremya which says that one of the minor powers, before the sailing or the second Pacific squadron. categori,. cally informed Russia of an impending attack on the vessels. The paper begs that Judgment may be suspended pend- ing the receipt of Vice-Admiral RoJest> vensky's report, but declares that fun justice will be done by, Russia.

Rome, Oct 25.-The Svampa to-day hpublished an interview with the Japan csc minister here. who is quoted as saying that before the Japanese can discuss the end of the war or the con- quest of Manchuria their troops must sidering the exhaustion of the troops. Still, Japan is ready for peace, as she is feeling the horrors of the butchery and catastrophes of war. But the peace conditions which she would de. mand to-day would be quite different from those which would have satisfied her ten months ago.
 THE BRITISH NOTE.
 St Petersburg, Oct 25.-The note re- ceiyed from the British nation relative to the North Sea controversy, stigma, tizes the act as inhuInan, unjustifaDle and deliberate, but makes no demands, reserying that pending the receipt or the Russian explanation. Neither does it place time limit upon the response. The note recites the circumstances of the offense, saying that a fleet of steam trawlers carrying the established lights was approached by a Russian squad ron which threw search lights upon them and then deliberately altered it's formation.' One vessel was sunk, two fishermen were killed, many were wounded and several vessels were missing. After a bOmbardment of the fishing vessels which lasted for some time. the squadron then sailed of, leaving a vessel of small tonnage which remained on the spot for siA hours.
 The note points out that the indig- nation of the British people was heightened by the inhuman conducs of the commanders of the warships 1n abandoning the sinking and crippled trawIers. This was further emphas sized by the failure of the smaller ves- sel to offer or render any assistance, although it was impossible for it dur. ing all this time to have mistaken the true character of the fishing vessels.
 The note concludes with the state ment that the British government is. awaiting Russias explanation of this unjustiiable act, pending the reception of which it reserves her demands.
