The reports which are being sent out from
Hartford and New Haven regarding the
probable outcome Of the contest in Conneo-
ticut between Samuel Fessenden and ex-
Governor Morgan G. Bulkeley to succeed

ments made by intimate friends Of Mr..
Fessenden These friends are absolutely
confident that Mr. Fessenden will win out,
and they have become confirmed in this
belief since he himself has been nominated
for state senator from his district. and
his chief lieutenant, Michael Kenealy. the
chairman Of the republican state central
committee. has been nominated for the
lower house in the legislature. These NOM

Japan Announces Such Will Be the
Result Unless Russia Recedes.
London, Jan. 13.-The Times PekiD
correspondent, cabling under yester-
lays date, says that the Chinese min
lister at TOXIC at the request of jap
anese foreign officials telegraphed the
following message to Prince Ching:
"The second Russian reply to the
Japanese proposals has been received
at Toxic. but it Is unfavorable and
cannot be accepted by Japan, who will.
lnless Russia %recedes, be compelled to
promptly resort to arms.
I'm view Of such an eventuality jap
an urges, and expects China to main
tain the strictest neutrality, to pre-
serve order throughout the empire, to
guard foreigners resident in the in
terror and to take special care to pre-
serve order in the provinces OF Shan
Tung and Yunnan lest foreign powers
might seize the pretext of disorder and
make aggressive movements therein"
The correspondent says that the
dispatch has deeply impressed tho
Chinese, who now believe war to be In
evitable.
Russian Officials Alarmed.
Berlin. Jan. 13.-The ST. Petersburg
correspondent of the Lokal Anzeiger
gives a much more serious view of the
Far Eastern situation than has hith-
erto emanated from the capital.
The correspondent claims he has
authentic information that those in Of
fetal circles entertain a greater o
Germ over the difficulties between Rus
STA and Japan than they have hereto
fore allowed to become known to the
public. and he says he suspects that
the utterances Of the press have been
optimistically colored in order to con-
ceal this official ~disquiet.
The correspondent goes on to say
that the car takes the keenest inter-
est in bringing order into the compli-
Gated situation, and that he insists
that an unvarnished report shall be
made public.
The war idea is unpopular In Rus
STA, but it is feared that some UNI
toward incident may occur any day
which will make it inevitable for Rus
STA to become fully convinced OF jap
ans warlike intentions.
Take Calmer View. g
London, Jan. 13.-Special dispatches
both from St. Petersburg and Toxic
take rather a calmer view Of the stu
alton. The view taken In European
capitals. based on the outlines OF the
Russian proposals published in Berlin
and the incidents Of the past few days
Is that although Russia has not modi-
fed her demands she is displaying .
more conciliatory tone and a willing
ness to negotiate, which is attributed
to the cars personal influence on the
