I am the representative of the Russian Social-Democratic Labour Party in the International Socialist Bureau and I can inform you that the Estonian Social-Democrats (if I am not mistaken, the so-called "Union of Estonian Social-Democrats") form part of our party. Undoubtedly, there is a Committee of the Russian Social-Democratic Labour Party in Revel, consisting mainly of Estonians. As for citizens M. Jurisson and J. G. Seppin, these names are unknown to me. This says absolutely nothing against these citizens: the organisations of our party are secret, and personally I do not know any of the Estonian comrades.

I will write to Russia and ask the Central Committee of our party about these citizens (just in case, also the Revel Committee), but we cannot hope for a quick reply.

With social-democratic greetings
Vl. Ulyanov (N. Lenin)
Address: Vl. Oulianoff. 17. Rue des deux Ponts. 17. (chez Kupfer). Genf. Geneva.
