San Francisco. February i9.-Three paroled Russian naval captains and eleven lieutenants arrived today from Port Arthur en route to Russia on the steamship Siberia.
 The party consisted of Capt N. 0. Won Essen. commander of the battleship Sevastopol; Capt. L. Shensiovitch, com mander of the battleship Retvizan; Capt N. Asake, commander of the naval trans port Yermask; Lieutenants Bestoujeff. Rumy, A. J. Bezestuzeff. " Bekleme- shelf, V. Butkevitch, K. Krotkoff, F.. Ostelzki, A. Rigby, s. Tirtoff, P. Vessel ken. K Dennyssoff and S. Kovalevsld.
 The naval officers made no criticism or General Stoessel or the conduct of the defence of Port Arthur, beyond the fact that the Russian fleet was under-n1anned and had not a sufficient supply of am intuition when the war began. Port Ar thur, they said would have fallen the latter part of August had 1t not been for the strengthening of the land forces with guns and men from the fleet.
 General Stoessel," said Captain von Essen, 'is brave soldier. great gen. eral and true patriot He held on to the last minute. He had plenty of ammuni- ton certainly, but I never heard of any army which could live on ammunition Lack of food was the main reason for the surrender. There were not more than 10000 able-bodied soldiers in the garri- son when it was surrendered

POLICE DISPERSE
 A MASS MEETING
CROWD IN NEW YORK SAID TO HAVE BEEN COMPOSED OF SYM FATHERS WITH THE RUSSIAN TERRoRlsTs.

New York, February 19.-Police re- serves were called out tonight to dis perse a crowd said to be sympathizers with the Russian revolutionary party. Eighteen were arrested, all giving for eign names, and were charged with pa rading without a permit, collecting q crowd, and holding an unlawful meet ing.
 The trouble started when two police men came upon crowd cheering and applauding a speech made by one of their number The policemen were un- successful In dispersing the people and called for reserves. It was said that red flag was being waved and later c sergeant of police who assisted in the raid, made the statement that one of the men arrested was spreading "infiam- matory and revolutionary literature" This mans name was given as Albert Argentier and the police found on him Q subscription list for the Russian rev. olutianaries. said to have been issued by the pro-revolution committee for Rus sia. All the men arrested said they were tailors and protested against being taken into custody
 Argentier demanded to know if this city was to be like Moscow. and honest workmen denied the right to meet and denounce tyrants.
 You can meet all right" said the sergeant in charge at Madison street, but not in the street where the meet ing might turn into a riot, and a lot or people get broken heads. Obey the law and we will not molest your meet ings."

THIRTY DAYS CONSUMED
Briefs Will Be Submitted to Contest Committee This Week By Both sides--Adams Disapproves
 Demonstration.

Denver, February 19.-Hearing of testi- contest for the office of governor closed this evening Briefs will be submitted to the contest committee this week by both sides, and the committee is required un- der the rules adopted by the general as- sembly to present It's reports and recom- mendations on March 1 to Lieutenant Governor Mcdonald, president of the joint convention of the legislature, when the contest will be finally decided. The convention will receive the report on March and will then determine how much time shall be allowed for argu- ment
 Thirty days have been consumed in hearing evidence In the case, and the expenses of the contest to be borne by the state will amount to more than s6o,00O
 On the face of the returns as canvass ed, Governor Adams majority was 91I4. Mir Peabody asked to have the entire vote of 104 Denver precincts and severA precincts outside the city thrown out in consequence of frauds. Handwriting ex- perts testIfying for Peabody claimed to have found 7.s27 bogus ballots among those in the Denver boxes, which they examined. NirCty-eight voters have ap- peared in person before the contest com mittee and identified their ballots among those classed. a~ bogus by the experts, and Adams attorneys claim to have proven about 450O such ballots genuine by the dispositions of the persons to whom they are credited on the poll books
 Should the contest committee decide, however, to reject the l04 Denver pres cincts, Adams attorneys will endeavor to have similar action as to number Of precincts in Las Onimas and Huerfano counties which were carreid by Peabody. With this end in view they introduced ex- pert testimony similar to that given in regard to the Denver ballots.
 Governor Adams disapproves of the demonstration in his favor at the capital March 2, which has been prepared by the Building Trades council of this city, and in deference to his wishes the labor or ganizations may decide to hold mass meetings elsewhere, insetad of assembling at the capital.

MASS CELEBRATED FOR GRAND DUKE
IMPOSING SCENE IN RUSSIAN CATHEDRAL OF ST. NICHOLAS IN NEW YoRK-sERelus' DEATH IS DEPLoRED.


 New York, February 19.-At the Rus sian cathedral of St. Nicholas, a "pan- nichida'' or requiem mass for the Grand Duke Sergius of Russia was celebrated today. The scene was most impressive. as the great congregation, holding light ed candles, responded to the chants of the black-robed priests officiating at the eatafalque, which had been placed in the center of the edifice.
 The Rev. Alexander Hotovitsky, the pastor, in his sermon, said that the as- sassnation of the Grand Duke was sad blow against the real freedom of Rus sia that the act of the assassin would not bring about a betterment of eondi- tions. but that violence would retard the liberal tendencies of that country: that the act furthermore was not per petrated by Russians or by men who had the welfare of Russia at heart. The uprising in Russia, he continued, was not of the Russian people, but of anarchists, who wished to destroy the government

EXTRADITION CASE
 TO BE REOPENED
DECISION OF ENGLISH PRlVY COUNCIL BOASTS JUSTICE CA RON FOR HIS STAND IN CAV NOR GREENE CASE.

Washington, February 19-The Depart ment of Justice has received a. copy of the decision of the judicial committee of the English privy council in the Gaynor- Greene case rendered on the Sth inst, the main points of which were outlined in the Associated Press at that time.
 The decision was favorable to the United States government, and will result in a re-opening of the extradition proceedings In the Canadian courts against Messrs. Gaynor and Greene. who are technically charged with obtaining government money under false pretense. The judg- ment of the privy council as understood here, after a full perucas of it's opinion, Is that two Judgments of Justice Caron, dismissing the motion of the United States to quash writs of habeas corpus in favor of Gaynor and Greene, were erroneous; that the writs should have been quashed because the prisoners were held under proper arrest and detention by a competent tribunal, an extradition commission, for the inquiry in pursuance of the British extradition law as to whether an extraditabe offense had been committed or not
 PrfYy council does not agree With Jus tice Caron that because the United States charged a conspiracy, which is not an offense within the extradltion treaty, the prisoners were entitled to discharge, since the privy council points out that the indictment for conspiracy charges overt acts of larceny, which is an offense under the extradition treaty, and the United States would treat this alleged larceny as a distinct and independent ex- traditable offense.
 Justice Caron, the council holds in ef- feet, should have allowed the extradition proceedings and particularly the ques- ton of how much evidence there was of larceny to be duly and properly in- vestigated under the British statute without interference by him.
 About half of the opinion rendered by the privy council deals with the pro- ceedings in the case up to the time that Justice Caron took hand in 1t. The opinion speaks in rather caustic terms of Justice Caron's action. say ing that he ultimately discharged the accused from custody upon grounds which their lordships have some diff culty in following"
