TRADE TREATY FOR FRANCE
Few Days VIII Determine whether
the Two Countries Can Come
to Agreement.

WASHINGTON, June 19.-Negotiations on
the Franco American reciprocity treaty were
continued at the State department today
and it is understood that the next few days
will determine whether 1t is possible for
the two countries to come together on a
trade treaty. The concessions to be granted
to the United States are already settled, so
that it remains only to determine what are
not and what are to be covered in the con-
cessions to France. Instead of picking out
certain articles on which to grant conces-
sions to this country, the French PROPOSE
ton is to grant the entire list of articles in
the minimum schedule. In return for this,
Commissioner Kasson has suggested cer-
tain number OF articles on which reduction
of duty will be allowed to France. The
Paris authorities hardly think this goes far
enough and is short of full equivalent
for granting the whole minimum schedule
to the United States.
The parties to the negotiations are quite
hopeful of securing definite results within
the next few days 1t was feared for a
time that the unsettled conditions Of the
French cabinet might retard an understand
ing, but matters are proceeding without ref
erence to the political uncertainties in Paris.
Important propositions, in fact, have passed
between Paris and Washington since the
cabinet crisis has existed.

Treachery Finds Speedy Penalty, However,
Rebel Loss Being Heavy.
WHEATON, CARRIES AID TO TROOPS
General is Fired Upon on the Way and Has
a Narrow Escape.
FIGHTING is CONTINUED DURING THE DAY
Enemy is Located In Woods Twenty
Miles from Manila and is Pressed
Back vigorously, Losing
store of Arms.

MANILA, June 19.-S:20 p. ma battalion
of the Fourth infantry which left linus
where General Wheaton is in command, this
morning to reconnOiter towards Peres das
Marinas, where 1t was believed that most OF
the rebels who escaped from Paranaque and
Bacoor had fled, was attacked in the rear
by apparently friendly natives. This brought
on sharp engagement, lasting several
hours, resulting in five Americans being
killed and about twenty-five being wounded
The loss OF the rebels was very heavy.
The battalion soon exhausted its ammu-
milton and at 2:3O this afternoon General
Wheaton and h,s staff, with the Second bat
talon. two mountain guns and one field
piece, went to reinhrce the troops attacked.
General Wheaton was fired on in road and
had a narrow escape.
Later the Third battalion was ordered to
the front and formed on the Las Minas
road. Heavy firing on both sides followed
the artillery being freely used. The enemy
was located in the woods at clock show
ing signs of retiring as the rebels were be-
ing pressed very hard. One gun of the Sixth
artillery in advantageous position did
great execution.
The fighting still in progress at j
o'clock, at which time the Americans had
secured a quantity of Filipino arms which
had been abandoned in the woods
The scene OF the fight is over twenty
miles from Manila.

RECOGNIZE RIGHTS OF ALL
Statement of German Minister on
the Situation in samoan
Islands.

BERLIN, June 19.-In the Reichstag today
the Anglo-German treaty was referred to a
committee OF twenty-one members.
During the course of the debate Herr
Lieberman Won Sonnenberg attacked Great
Britain's proceedings in Samoa. The minis
ter of foreign affairs, Baron Won Buelow,
replied, saying: Il have no objection to
again defining our attitude on the Samoan
question. We shall not depart from the
stipulations OF the Samoa treaty, nor allow
others to turn us from our course. We
recognize the rights of others while main
tanning our own" The foreign minister
also said: 1--WE shall provide for full in
Identification of the Germans whose prop
erty was destroyed by Illegal British or
American action"
After alluding to the powers OF the high
commission, Germany's insistenee on the
principle of unanimity in its decisions and
the provisional assumption of the govern
ment of Samoa by the commission under
whose direction the maritime and consular
representatives were instructed to place
themselves" the minister read dispatches
outlining the situation as already fully
known, the only new points being the
German commissioners statement that the
commission received both Malietoa Tanus
and Mataafa as having equal rights as
party leaders. and the announcement that
the possibility that strife may be ended by
the abolition OF the kingshlp.

ElKS ARE TAKING ST. LOUIS
People Prepare to Give Possession
of the city over TO Them
Coming by Thousands.

ST. LOUIS, June 19.-Ths city is taking
on q purple aspect in honor of the thirty
first annual convention and reunion of the
Benevolent and Protective order of Elks,
which began its session today. That color,
with the red, white and blue OF the national
flag is to be seen everywhere in the dec
orations on business buildings and resi-
dences.
All the grand lodge officers have arrived
and are making the Southern hotel their
headquarters. Every train that comes into
the city brings its quota of visiting Elks
and at noon it was estimated that fully 1000
had already arrived. After leaving the union
station the visitors are shown to the Lin
dell hotel the headquarters of the local re-
ception and registration committees, where
they register. From there they are shown
to their respective hotels. 1t Is expected
that at least 5000 Elks will be here tomor-
row.
The sessions OF the grand lodge, which
will be held in the Olympic theater, will
be secret. Several matters will come up
for action, the most important being the
constitution that was favorably acted on at
the last annual meeting in New Orleans, but
rejected by the subordinate lodges. 1t will
be presented again to the grand lodge and,
IL favorably acted on. will be resubmitted
to the subordinate lodges.
Grand Exalted Ruler John Calvin OF Gin
cnnati will not stand for reelection. There
are two active candidates for his position,
Judge B. NJ. Allen of Birmingham, Ala,
and George B. Peare of Cumberland, Md.
For the position of grand secretary the con-
test will be between George A. Reynolds OF
Saginaw, Mich the present incumbent, and
Bert Lyon OF St. Louis.

Three hundred West Virginia negro miners
arrived here today and were taken south
over the Missouri, Kansas G. Texas. They
are probably bound for the Indian Territory
mines but did not know where they were

CROSS PURPOSES AT BUFFALO
Committee Appointed to Confer with
Employees Fails to Make an
Appearance.

BUFFALO, n. Y, June LIT was the in
tention of the committee appointed by the
conference of freight handlers, grain shov-
elers, etc., on Saturday night to confer with
the Lake line managers today. Up to 2:30 p.
m, however, they had not appeared at the
Office of the Erie and Superintendent Brunn
had not been invited to joint conference.
Mr.. Brunn reiterated his statement that
the Erie was firmly resolved not to accede to
the demand of the men for an increase of
wages The Erie had he said twenty eight
men at work in the Lake freight house and
was trying to get as many more as possible.
Contractor Corners said the strike was not
worrying him. He had, he said, $50 men a:
work unloading five steamers and two canal
boats and when they were unloaded there
would not be much more work here, as the
policy OF the railroads controlling the lake
lines was to tie up their vessels and dis
charge the dock workers and abandon the
lake business so far as Buffalo was con-
cerned.
The Lackawanna coal shovelers returned
to work today All of the coal and ore SHOW
elers are now at work.
The demand for an increase of wages Is
not confined to the Erie freight handlers,
but includes all other freight houses. The
Erie has been paying IA cents per hour reg
ular and q cents for overtime. The other
companies 15 cents per hour with no in
crease for overtime.
The Erie's men originally demanded Is
cents per hour with q cents for overtime,
but later said they would be satisfied with
20 cents per hour for overtime, provided they
received the extra cent for regular work.
The Erie made it Is cents straight, the same
as the other freight houses. This the men
ho,,a al
demand for Is cents an hour regular and 20
cents for overtime.

What Result is Not Known
beatrice Bloodhounds Are
Put on the Trail.

AUBURN, Neb., June 19.-(Special Tele-
gram)-The partially decomposed body of
st. John Bahaud, wealthy farmer who
lVed alone near Julian, was found in his
house last evening Bahaud was last seen
alive on Thursday and a search revealed the
corpse.
After the work of AN autopsy had been
completed the coroner's jury found that both
frontal and parietal bones had been crushed
by some blunt instrument, but there was
nothing to indicate that a ball had passed
through the brain.
To all appearances both hands and one foot
had been burned, probably to force the vic
tim to tell where his money was hidden.
The house had been ransacked but no one
can have any idea as to the amount of
money, If any, secured. 1t was generally
believed that the old man had large sums of
money hidden about the place, though the
story was discredited by those who knew
him best. He was the owner Of almost 900
acres Of land from which he received good
rent besides a number of good buildings in
Julian.
III opening Il llH DON IN WnlCn were Kept

IDENTIFY cut his hand so that 1t bled profusely,
as there was blood on the papers and all
about the room. This led to the hope that
scent might be secured by bloodhounds
and the Beatrice hounds were sent for and
arrived at about 4:3O this afternoon and at
present writing there is nothing to indicate
that the trail will be taken up. The re.
mains were buried this afternoon and the
jury Is still at work.
There is great excitement in the vicinity
Of Julian over the murder and should the
guilty parties be apprehended there would
be one case of lynching in Nemaha county.

STILL HOPE FOH ARBITRATION PLAN
DIR. Zorn's Mission to Berlin Brought
No Discourngement to Project.

DR.. Zorn's NISSAN to Berlin Brought
No Discourngement to Project.
THE HAGUE, June 19.-Dr. Zorn, the
member of the German delegation to the
International peace conference who was dis
patched Friday by Count Won Munster, the
chief German delegate after a conference
with his colleagues, to inform Emperor Will
liam personally OF the condition of affairs
in regard to the arbitration question, re-
turned to Scheveningen today from Berlin.
1t is said, however. that owing to the alb
sence of the emperor DR.. Zorn was only
able to consult with the officials Of the
German foreign Office
Dr. Zorn is discreetly reticont regarding
his mission, but 1t is understood he OBJ
tained the impression at Berlin that all
hope need not be abandoned OF effecting an
understanding regarding the organization OF
an arbitration board by amalgamating the
various schemes
1t is expected that Emperor william will
reach a decision this week. Matters there
fore remain unchanged and the drafting
committee will not meet until the kaiser's
decision is known.
The general desire of the conference favors
an established arbitration tribunal recourse
to which shall be optional.
1t is believed that if Germany declines to
participate the other. powers will still
achieve some such, result before separating
They may decidei upon a draft scheme
pending Germany's decision.
