who claimed TO represent Sells Brothers
Great Syndicate Shows, pleaded guilty to
obtaining money by false pretenses in the
police court this morning and was given
The limit-six month--in the county jail.
fIe worked the merchants all through the
northern part of the State. and only for
the prominence given his operations by the
newspapers might have been doing 60 yet.
He is wanted In several places.
His method was to make contracts out
at higher rates than business men would
be willing to accept the contract for, and
then divide with the merchant. the latter
paying Davis his cash share of the divvy.
He made several contracts here, but as they
were all for future delivery, no case could
have been made against him, only for the
fact that he gave an order on the treasurer
Of the circus for IS. which he had received
as deposit for the return OF some paste
quits.

RUssIA's PEACE PLAN
Not Considered Feasible by Washing
ton Authorities

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29,-The extraor-
binary circular note directed BY the Rus
sian Foreign Minister to tile members Of
the Diplomatic Body at st. Petersburg has
attracted the earnest attention of the Off
Gals here. 1t is supposed from the terms
Of the note as published that copy was
directed to Mr.. Hitchcock, the United States
Ambassad dor at the Russian Capitol, but SO
far nothing has been heard by cable from
him to that effect. II Is believed that the
victory achieved by the United States In
the late war was a contributing factor In
the preparation of the note II is sur
missed that that victory made 1t clear at
once to the European statesmen that to
maintain the Balance Of power they would
be obliged to redouble their expenditures
on account Of army and navy, else they
might be outstripped by the United States.
The official mind here looks upon the Rus
sian project for general disarmament as
utopian at this time, and while any stale
mcnt as to the attitude Of the United States
towards such a conference as that proposed
Is purely conjectura In advance of The re-
ceipt OF the Invitation, the impression pre-
walls that our. government would not care
to take any active part In It's deliberations.
