ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. S.-The
Official Messenger to-day publishes a
government communiQue reviewing
lengthily the result of the Hague peace
conference. After referring to the SYM
pathetic receptions the powers accorded
the Cars magnanimous appeal FOR

conference have fully come up to the
expectations of the government. 1t has
been found necessary for the conference
to postpone definite settlement OF the
complicated question OF the suspension
Of ornaments until fully Calculated by
the different governments. Neverthe-
less the tightening OF military burdens
Is already admitted by unanimous reso-
tuition TO be urgently desirable for all
nations. On the other hand the labors
OF the conference will doubtless eXer-
else influence in regulating the Gus
toms OF war and stopping cruelties. The
various states have agreed to use all
their resources in favor Of the main
tenance of peace and the abolition OF
war. It Is now an established fact that
mediation, which hitherto depended on
the good will Of the states interested.
can henceforward be offered by third
power on its own initiative"
The communicate concludes: With
out impalrinE the sovereign rights OF
the individual states, the results aftord
a fresh basis for international peace.
The necessity for solution of the
cars proposals is admitted by all the
powers and the march Of events VIII

NEW YORK, August IA special to
the Tribune from Washington says:
Senator Jones, of Arkansas, wished to
return home from Europe as early as
September 10, but his physician laid
upon him the injunction not TO leave
there before October 1. The senator
writes 10 a friend In this city that he
feels as well as at any time in twenty
years and he has not the slightest pre-
monition Of another attack OF the heart
disease from which he suffered.
1t is learned from friend Of the sem
ator that he is not ambitious to hold
the Craftsmanship OF the executive COM
mittee OF his party. but that It was not
deemed wise to resign at this time and
invite n scramble for the place. Hence,
without quoting Senator Jones himself,
he says that the senator will resign the
leadership OF the Democratic committee
by the time OF the national convention,
so as to give an opportunity for the
choice OF another man.
