I A conlinuanca of tht cross-examination of the Russian officers at today s session of the international com mission dereioed considerable feeling and several sharp exchanges of remarks. Cap tain Clado parucuiarly criticised the hos tile attitude of the British press. He said Vice Admiral Rtlestvensky had written a private letter severely condemning the British pre.-'. u-!r.g one phrase which Cap tain Clado sfcld he considered necessary to torpedo boats. It was deairable to 1th draw the squadron, as scon t poasioie from the vicinity of such attacks. Admiral Beaumont (Great Britain) closely questioned the witness tn who gav lD order to fire. Captain Clado saying it aa I lilmiral TliiiMltVMlikv the high purposes ot tne commission ma that therefore they would be stricken from the record. British Expert Teatlfles. Counsel for Great Britain Introduced Commander Keane. former chief of a tor pedo division and a leading torpedo expert of the British navy. He asserted positively that mistakes were frequently made be tween torpedo boats and otber boats mainly because searchlights confused the ordinary calculation of distances, and cited the case of the British battleship Devastation, which vss mistaken for a torpedo boat during a ilsht evolution, and also of a c-ulser of 11. X tons, which was mistaken for a torpedo ont during the Mediterranean maneuver of in. Interrogating the witness. Admiral Four rtier French) asked whether it would be possible to mistake a battleship for a tor pedo boat when a boat of th dimensions nt a trawler wa alongside. "Certainly not." replied the witness. Admiral Fournier conaldered the pclnt interesting, statin that such waa the posi tion of the Russian, who had observed the torpedo boats with trawlers along-side. If a battleship Instead of a torpdo boat had been there it could not have been mistaken fcr a torrdo boat. Admiral Doubasoff (Russian), saying the question was important, asked Lieutenant Bchramtchenko. torpedo officer of the bat tleship Borodino, relative to the Impression on board his ship when it was announced that ti rpdo boats were pursuing the Kam chatka The witness stated that "our suppositions regarding the possibility of a torpedo at tack were realised." Christiansen, mate of the Norwegian ves sel Adella, swore that he saw a torpedo boat in the North sea on September 1 and that on the following day he saw a similar vessel without lights sailing at great speed ln the vicinity where traalers crossed. The witness was uncertain whether the second vessel was a torpedo boat. FIRE RECORD. Balldlaar at Beatrice. BEATRICE. Neb.. Feb. 1 i Special Tele gram.)
