RUSSIAN ADMIRAL
 UPHELD BY REPORT Semi.0RlciaI Statement of Finding of the COmmis-
 sion in the North Sea Incident.
SILENT ON IMPORTANT POINT
NO OPINION ON PRESENCE OF
 TORPEDO BOATS.

 That His Squadron Was Endangered
 and That He Had tlle Right Under
 the Circumstances to Act as He Did. English Press Indignant but is Hope
 full That Full Text of Commissions
 Report VIII Modify Impression Pro-
 duced by Preliminary Verdict.
 Paris, Feb. 22.-A semi-officiaI state ment appeared tonight relative to the work of the international commission. which has been considering the North sea incident It is as follows: VI
 'sThe Hull commission met this morn ing in the ministry of foreign affairs and again this afternoon in order to proceed to a final examination of the report recapitulating it's conclusions. The report is rather long, comprising about ten large pages. The principal author is Admiral von spana (Austrian) but all the members of the commis- sion collaborated in drawing it up. The commission giveso no opinion on the question of the presence or absence of Japanese torpedo boats in the North sea, declaring merely that the Russian admiral quite 1egitimately believed that his squadron was endangered, and that he had the right under the circum- stances to act as he did The cornmis- sioners referred to the Russian govern. ment's engagements to indemnify the victims of the deplorable incident.
 The report will be sent tomorrow by special messengers to the Russian < and British governments not because it 4 is liable to modifications at the instance of one or the other Of the governments, the commissions decision being without appeal but the commissioners do not wish the powers interested to simply learn through the press of the last pub lie sitting and the conclusion arrived at. There is nothing in this preliminary communication or report except an act of difference,
 The public sitting for the reading of the conclusions will probably be held on Saturday. The admirals will not be in full uniform. The proceedings prob ably will be closed by a speech of thanks from Admiral Fournier (the president of the conmission) to his col leagues. 5
 Members of the commission who were seen tonight refused either to confirm. or deny the statement, but officials hay ing favorable opportunities to judge of the results of the inquiry consider the statement to be substantially correct.

Thu Careless
ness OF Man

Is often the cause of bitter disap-
pointments. The modern man
looks after the future welfare of
his family by buying life insur-
ance, Government bonds or some
other safe investment, and neg
lects one thing that possibly
would be more consolation and
comfort in case he was called
away. And that is modern pho
tograph; 900 Of our business IS
women and children. The men
are always putting it off until
finally black gowned woman
brings in an old tin-type taken
when John was 20, and has it cop
led. Not much comfort, but it s
all she has. Don't you think a
small investment in photography
would be a good one for you?
