CONTINUE TO COMMENT,

Cars Note u Fruitful Topic For London
Newspapsrs-Confere Probable.
LONDON, Aug. 3l.-The newspapers
here continue to devote large amount
of their space TO comments upon and
criticism of the czar's peace note.
While naturally differing in regard to
the reasons actuatiug the. appeal, they
generally agree that the outcome will
be conference of the premiers, if not
OF the sovereigns themselves, probably
at Copenhagen, which will be followed
by an expression OF concurrence in the
humanitarian aims of the car and a
report of the resolutions to their re-
spective governments, when the whole
thing will be shelved indefinitely.
The latest comments from Paris show
that there is intense irritation on the
subject there. The cars proposal is
regarded as being unfriendly and in.
consistent with the Franco Russian
alliance. Curiously enough, in support
of this view, the official Hamburger
Correspondent publishes a telegram
from ST. Peters burg confirming the
report that nperor William OF Ger.
many and the car exchanged views in
regard to the establishment of last.
ing state of peace, (which was fully
demonstrated by the identity of the
monarchs' wishes"
In other quarters it is alleged that
the cars announcement was directly
inspired by Queen Victoria, whose
greatest hope Is that her reign may
not again be disturbed by war. The
queen confessedly has long sought tc
restrain Emperor William, and it is
not unlikely that she used her grea,
influence with the czarina to secure
the support Of the car.

EYES loPENED
Washington Inclined to Believe
the Result of the Late War
With Spain
Had Much to Do With the Extra
ordinary Proposal Of the
Gar.
No Official Notice of an Invita-
ton to This Country to
Participate.
The Scheme Is Looked Upon as
Rather UtOpian---TeXt of
the Note.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-The extra.
ordinary circular note directed by the
Russian foreign minister to the men,
bers of the diplomatic body at St.
Petersburg, has attracted the earnest
attention of the officials here It is
supposed from the terms of the note,
as published, that copy was directed
to Mr.. Hitchcock, the United States
ambassador at the Russian capital, but
So far nothing has been heard by cable
from him to that effect. 1t is believed
here that the victory achieved by the
United States in the late war was a
contributing factor in the preparation
of the note. 1t is surmised that that
victory made it clear at once to the
European statesmen that to maintain
balance of power they would be OBJ
liged 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 Russian project for general
disarmament as Utopian at this time,
and while any statement as to the atti.
tude of the United States towards such
a conference as that proposed is purely
conjectural, in advance of the receipt
of the invitation, the impression pre-
walls that our government would not
care to take an active part in its DELHI
erations

WILL Do GOOD
Peace Conference Proposed by
the Car May Fail Of Imme-
date Results
But Much Collateral Good Will.
Probably Be Accomplished
by 1t.
Such the Opinion Attributed to
Senator Davis in a Chicago
Interview.
London, Berlin and Paris Com
ments Voice Many Opinions
on the Subject.

CEICAGO, Aug. 3l.-Senator Cush-
man K. Davis of Minnesota, membe
of the Paris peace commission, stopped
in this city few hours while en- route
to his home in St. Paul, where he ex.
poets to remain and rest until Sept. II,
when the commission sails for Europe.
When asked for his opinion of the
probable success of the cars proposal
for disarmament conference he said:
s.While the obstacles in the way of
the abandonment of standing armies
seem almost insurmountable, still ]
would not be at all surprised if very
material good could be accomplished
by conference of the kind proposed.
II might not result in the reduction OF
the standing armies, but it would be a
step toward that goal, and it might
have side results which would be of the
greatest value. -.
Believes the Gear Unselfish.
''The car has done great thing in
putting forth his suggestion. While
Russia would undoubtedly benefit
greatly by the change, I believe the
czar's motives are not in any sense
selfish, and that he is perfectly sincere
in his desire to bring about benefits
to all the European nations. The Rus.
sian imperial family has always had a
vein of humanitarianism and even of
sentimentalism, in matters Of reform,
and its achievements have been very
great in some lines.
1T is, of course, very hard to say
what the proposed conference would
accomplish. England would gain i'm.
mensely by disarming, and would un.
doubtedly work hard for it. THIS
smaller and weaker nations are being
forced to bankruptcy and ruin by the
armies they feel forced to maintain.
They may have to reduce their forces
merely TO keep in existence whether
there is any general agreement or not.
Russia is so protected by its barrier of
Ice and snow behind it, and by the
character of its people that it could af-
ford to dlsarm. Certainly it would
want to avoid fighting until its great
military road across Siberia is com.
pleted.
''The EASTERN question is very seri.
Gus, and may at any time lead to trou.

require dencate treatment that

AN OVATION FOR SCHLEY.

Hero Of Santiago Cornered by Navy De.
pHrtmenr Employees.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-Admiral
Schley received great demonstration
at the navy department.. He came to
the department quite early, and after a
call upon Acting Secretary Allen he
emerged from the main door OF the
secretary's Office. HIS presence in the
building had become known, however,
and as soon US he was seen cheers rent
the air from the clerks who had assem-.
bled to catch a glimpse of the hero OF
Santiago. The officers and clerks from
the navy, state and war departments
crowded the Corridors leadins up to the
navy department, until it was impossi.
BILE to pass through. They crowded
around the admiral, eagerly reaching
forward TO shake his hand The lady
clerks were even more uemonstrative,
and the admiral was kissed by young
and old without discrimination. 1t
was finally necessary to torn line
and pass the crowd around through the
large rooms Of the secretary's Office, in
order to give them a chance to shake
hands with Admiral Schley.
Many prominent army officers took
part in the demonstration. The ad.
miral finally escaped into Captain
Crowninshield' flee.
Admiral Schley lett Washington dur.
ing the afternoon and expects to sail
TOR Porto Rico next Wednesday with
the military comm .ssion.

The Hero of His Own Story, but Brave
For All That

- lis Own 5toTys HuC brave
For All That.
Poulett Weatherby, the only English
man OF any prominence who is now in
central Africa merely for the big game
and a little incidental map making and
correcting, will evidently write an in
teresting book as soon as he returns to
civilization. Mr.. Weatherby is not the
man to spoil good story just because
he is himself its hero, and occasional
letters from him that reach his friends
in London show that he is having a lot
OF fun. One written in January from
Lake Observation-Disclosures that may
be-details an exciting experience he
had with one Mewenge, chief of the
Wausi tribe.
''On the day of our ARRIVAL says the
traveller, "Mewenge rushed out mad

frances. We forced our way through
one of them, however, and leaving ten
men outside I went in with six. Leav-
ing these also well in the rear with
strict orders that they were not to come

was dirty ash color and whose heart 7
could see beating like sledge hammer)
amid dead silence and stood in the

Mewenge. Where am I standing? In

am not afraid of you. If you want war

Got Rich on Frogs.

Though there may be no frog farms
in Maine there was at least one Maine
man who got rich by selling frogs legs
to Boston and New York hotels. His
name was Weld, and he lived in the
town of Greenbush, on the east bank of
the Penobscot river, some % miles
north Of Bangor. Though a blacksmith
and an axmaker by trade, he made his
fortune out of frogs. His custom was to
provide the boys in his neighborhood
with small dip nets and send them out
to the boys and swamps of Greenbush,
Milford, Greenfield and Olamon. For
graybellies and greenbellies he paid the
boys 5 cents a dozen, and when they
brought in a dozen Of golden throated
bullfrogs he gave them cent for every
frog. In this way he paid out money to
the boys and made money for himself
for about 20 years, and when he died,
about 1880, his estate was appraised at
$1T2,0O0. After the death of Weld his
nephews and nieces proceeded to divide
the property, and as they were well off
and did not need to work the frog catch
ing industry was abandoned. New

BIGGER ARMY
Next Congress Will Be Asked to
Seriously Consider the
Proposition.
Chairman Hull Would Make the
Peace Footing Hundred
Thousand
And He Will Introduce a Bill to
Carry This Idea Into
Effect.
Admiral Schley Given a Great
Ovation at the Navy De-
partment.

NEW YORK, Aug. 28.-One Of the
important matters which will occupy
the attention of congress at its next
session will be legislation to increase
the strength of the permanent military
esta blishment, says the Washington
correspondent of The Tribune.
Chairman Hull of the committee on
military affairs of the house of repre-
sentatives, who is in Washington,
where he expects to remain until early
in November. is devoting much atten.
ton to the subject and has already dis
covered that the war has removed
some of the more formidable obstacles
which hindered and finally prevented
the enactment of satisfactory law
for the reorganization and increase of
the army at the last session of con.
gress. Early in the coming session he
will introduce bill to correct the de-
fects in the existing law and to increase
the strength of the army on a peace
footing to 100000 enlisted men. He
feels confident that the measure will
be passed.
The strongest opposition to the reor.
ganization bill last winter and spring
came from the representatives OF the
national guard organizations of the
various states and it was effective to a
considerable extent. The experience
of the last four months, there is reason
to believe, has convinced that element,
as we'll as good many congressman
who surrendered to its influence, that
that opposition was unjust and un.
reasonable, and that reasonably
strong army thoroughly equipped and
organized on modern basis would be
a benefit rather than draw back to the
national guard organizations.

posal.

least, respect and sympathy will be
felt for the proposal. It is concep-
ton well worthy Of the young SOW
ereign. II is painfully obvious that
there are enormous difficulties TO be
overcome, which it is possible the czar

CAUSES A SENSATION.

Cars Peace Proposition Evidently as
Sincere Unexpected.
LONDON, Aug. 30.-The cars propo.
sition for an international conferen CO
for the purpose of securing real and
lasting peace among the powers and
the termination of the progressive III.
crease in ornaments conveyed in a
note from Count Muravieff, the Rus
sian foreign minister, to the foreign
diplomats at St. Petersburg, is likely
to produce a sensation throughout
Europe, and coming from such quar-
ter and with such evident sincerity of
purpose it is likely to have important
effects. There is no doubt that with
Russia taking the lead in such step
Germany, France and the other ma.
tons will be ready to follow.
The Text Of the Note.
In his invitation to participate in the
conference the Russian minister dwells
at length on the bad effect Of the con.
tinual increase of ornaments, declar.
ing that it strikes at the very root OF
public prosperity. Continuing he says:
The intellectual and physical strength
of the nations-labor and capital--are
mostly diverted from their natural appli-
cation and are unproductively consumed
Hundreds of millions are devoted to &C
curing terrible engines of destruction,
which, though today regarded as the last
work of science, are destined tomorrow to
lose all their value in consequence OF
some fresh discovery in the same field.
National culture, economic progress and
the production of wealth are either para.
lyzed or checked in development The econ
omic crisis, due in great part to the system
of ornaments Poutrance and the contin-
ual danger which lies in this massing OF
war material are Transforming the armed
peace of our days into crushing burden
which the people have mora and more
difficulty in bearing
The Inevitable Result.
It appears evident that if this state OF
things We're to be prolonged it would in
eyitably lead to the very cataclysm it is
desired to avert, the horrors OF which
make every thinking being shudder in All.
vance.
To put an end to these incessant arma-
ments and to seek the means Of wardiE z
off the calamities which are threatening:
the whole world-such is the supreme
duty today imposed upon all states.
Filled with this idea, his majesty has
been pleased to command me to propose
to all the governments whose represen-
tatives are accredited to the imperial
court, the. assembling of conference
which shall occupy itself with this grase
problem.
This conference shall, by the help Of
God, be the happy presage OF the century
which is about to open.
