DEMoCRAr1c COMMITTEE.
Meeting Of state body in Hartford
Press Bureau.

Hartford, Conn, Sept. 19.There
were few absentees at the meeting this
noon Of the Democratic state central
committee at the headquarters. Judge
Robertson was present, also National
Committeeman Cummings. Among the
matters brought up was the establish
ment Of a press bureau and the distri-
button Of funds which will be received
by the committee for use in the cams
|paign. The increased number Of sena-
torial districts has made q new system
imperative. For instance here in Hart
ford 1t has been the custom of handing
money over to the state central com-
|mittee for the district, and he in turn
would give it to the chairman of the
town committee. Now the three Hart
ford men on the committee want to
handle the money and not give it to
the town committee chairman One Of
the first duties Of the new press bureau
win be to announce the names OF the
finance and advisory cornmittees Of
which Mayor Thayer, of Norwich, will
be the chairman.

RUSSIA ANSWERS D. S.
Reply in Regard to Contraband Of
War.

st. Petersburg, Sept. 19.-The Russian
answer to the American notes in re-
gard to contrabrand of war, as specific
ally raised in the cases Of the British
steamship Calchas and the Portland,
and the Asiatic line steamship the
Arabia, both of which were captured
BY the Vladivostok squadron, has been
delivered. Itfollows generally the lines
of the reply to Great Britain. On the
broad question involved Russia recog-
|nizes the principles OF immunity Of in
nocent trade with Japanese ports, but
she holds to her right to stop contra
bran destined to the use of the Jap
anese military or naval forces. The
United States is Informed, as was Great
Britain on September 16, that instruc-
tions embodying the decision Of the
commission presided over by Professor
de Martens Of the University of st.
Petersburg, have been issued in the
form of instructions to the naval COM
manders and prize courts, to govern
them in the future, the instructions
recognizing the dual uses and there
fore only the conditionally contrabrand
character Of the articles of foodstuffs,
rice, etc, enumerated in section ten of
article six of the Russian regulations.
with the exception of horses and other
beasts Of burden.
But the mere fact that a consign-
ment is intended for private persons
or firms, as also pointed out to Great
Britain, Russia will not accept as nee
|essarily furnishing expedition from seiz-
|ure, should circumstances, for instance,
like the shipment of full cargo of food,
create a fair presumption that it is in
tended for the use Of the Japanese
government for supplying her army or
navy.
The circumstances of each case,
therefore, will to a certain extent gov
ern 1t. Russia will not undertake at
this stage to interfere with the cases
of the steamships Arabia and calchas,
of which the courts have already taken
and in which the Vladivos-
tok court found the facts; but upon
|appeal the adfiralty court will apply its
Interpretation Of section 10, which prac-
tically amounts that an assurance that
flour, ETC., seized will then be released.

1ebecome chief of both armies, but prob
q ably without the title of eommander-in-
d chief. 1t is this impending reorganiza-
q lion which seems to have led to the
sncountless runors af1oat here of Kuro-
supersession of Viceroy Alex
afiieff as commander-in-chiefo of the army,
S The latter's resignation, etc. The inves-
irstigations of the Associated Press indi-
slrcate that the foregoing is the real sit
9thiatior, and it has been informed that
'htAlexieff will continue to be viceroy, and
1 that as such he could not be subordi-
hated in title to the commanding gem
+ eral, which would happen if Kuropat-
kin was given the title Of commander
I hn-chief. Nevertheless, it is said, Kuro-
atpatkin will virtually be in complete un-
command.
