AN STREET P ar Takes Place 'f Grand Duke Nicholas as Head of Russian Army of France, Emperor Nicholas an- nounced that he has placed himself in command of all the Russian armies. Nominally the czar is supreme com- mander of the Russian forces. It is understood that when war started he was ambitious to head his troops in the field. He was persuaded, how- ever, to give the command to his cousin, the Grand Duke Nicholas. Lacking military prestige and a com- manding personality, it was felt the czar should yield to the grand duke, who is a giant, is one of the finest cavalry offices in Russia and is a com- mander of long experience. His ex- ecutive ability was apparent in the closing operations of the Russo-Jap- anese war and in his successful ef- In a message to President Poincare CZAR AND GRAND DUKE NICHOLAS™ forts against revolutionists. He is the strong man of the Romanoffs. Fre- quently he has been mentioned as the probable regent if Russia should ever need one in his lifetime. Last winter it was rumored in Berlin that the czar wanted peace, but that he was over- awed by the grand duke, who is said to have insisted the war be fought to a victorious finish. To the Russian populace the grand duke has been the hero of the war, and, despite: reverses ‘to the czar’'s troops, the. commander in chief has been a national idol. His masterly defense of Warsaw last win- ter stamped him as a fighter and strategist of first ability.

The message of Emperor Nicholas to President Poincare does not make it clear whether Grand Duke Nicholas has been superseded by the emperor. During the last few weeks there has been severe criticism of the conduct of the war by the Rus- sian authorities. The minister of war, General Soukhomlinoff, resigned, and the formation of a coalition govern- ment has been under discussion. NO INDEMNITY GRANTED FOR ARABIC German Not—e Claims Submarine - Was in Danger of Attack Sept. 10.—The note from Germany regarding the sinking of the liner Arabic reached the state department by cable through Ambas- sador Gerard yesterday soon after the arrival of a mall report from Ambas- sador Page at I.ondon enclosing affi- davits of the Ara Washington, s survivors. Text of Note. Berlin, Sept. 9, (via London, Sept. 10, 2:36 a. in.).--Germany’s note to the United States bearing on the sinking of the White Star line steam- er Arabic on Aug. 19, which was com- municated to the American Ambassa- dor, James W. Gerard, for transmis- sion to Washington, is in the form of a memorandum under date of Sept. 7, the-text of which follows: On'Aug. 19 a German submarine istoppe:l the FKnglish steamer Dunsley about sixteen nautical miles south of Kinsale and was on the point of sinking the prize by gunfire after the crew had left tne vessel At this moment the commander saw a large steamer making directly toward him. This steamer, which as developed la- ter, was the Arabi She was recog- nized as an enemy Vessel as she did not fly any flag and bore no neutral markings. When she approached she altered her original course, but then again pointed directly toward the subma- rine. From this the commander be- came convinced that the steamer had the intention of attacking and ram- ming him. In order to anticipate this attack he gave orders for the subma- rine to dive and fired a torpedo at the steamer. After firing, he con- vinced himsel? that the people on board were being rescued in fifteen baats. bic Planned Attack, Ace ing to hi¢ instructions the commander was not allowed to attack the Arable without warning and with- out saving the lives unless the ship at- tempted to escape or offered resist- ance. He v forced, however, to conciude from the attendant clrcum- stances that the Arubic planned a vi- olent attack on the submarine. This conclusion is all the more ob- vious as he had becn fired upon at a great distance in the Irish sea on Aug. 14—that is, u few days before— by a large passenger steamer appar- ently belonging to tae British Royal Main Steam Puckct company, which he had neither attacked nor stopped. The German government most deeply regrets that lives were lost through action of the commander. It particularly expresses this regret to the government of the United States on account of the deatw of American citizens. Cannot Grani Indemnity. The German government is unable, Lowever, to acknowledge any obliga- ticn to grant indemnity in the matter, even if the coramander should have besn mistaken as to the aggressive intentions of the Arabic. If it should prove to be the case that it is impossible for the German and American governments to reach a harmonious opinion on this point, the German government ‘would be prepared to rubmit the difference of opinion, as being a question of inter- national law, to thc Hague Tribunal for arbitration, pursuant to Article 38 of the Hague convention for the pa- citic settlement of international dis- putes. In so doing, it umes that, as a maiter of course, the arbitral decision shall not be adinitted to have the im- portance of a general decision on the permissibility or the converse under international law of German subma- rine warfare.

The resignation of John Recor as regular callman was accepted . and Michael Leyden was elected his suc- cessor. Simon Wolfe was also a can- didate. In view of Police Officer A. C. Malone’s continued ill health the board voted to extend his leave of absence until November 1. The board drafted a proposed ordi- nance regulating the carrying of dy- namite through the streets. It states that a vehicle carrying the explosive shall not go faster than five miles per ltour and only between the hours of 7:30 and 11:30 p. m. and 1:30 and 5:30 p. m. It also stipulates that no explosives shall be carried through the streets on any holiday or parade day. A letter was received from Styles & Reynolds Brick company thanking the fire department for the efficient work at a recent fire at their yards. A check for $10 for the firemen’s pen- sien and relief fund was enclosed. The purchase of 1,500 bushels of oats from Hugh Reynolds was reported as well as eight tons of hay from the town farm.
