both British and Russian accounts.

PARIS. Jan. 20.-Thc international
commission of inquiry into the North
sea incident has resumed its sessions
here. The Russian and British state
ments were received. The Russian

lights out. The firing was continued
for ten minutes. Admiral KoicStven-
Sky was not aware that any damage
had been done 10 the English fishing
