Washington. June 20.-Private ad- vices received here from a high au- thOIity are to the effect that the con- ference at The Hague will probably be redeemed from failure through an agreement on an arbitration project that will satisfy the apparently gen. eral demand on that point, but which at the same time, will have such care fully framed safeguards with so mar row field of matters that may CT must go before the arbitration tri- bunal, as to make 1t little more than arbitration in name.

MORRISSEY A DUB
He Rested on His Elbow While He
 Was Counted Out.

New York, June 2O.-Peter Maher scored a quick victory over Mike Nor rissey of Tipperary, before the Lneox Athletic club tonight Morrissey had been heralded as an invincible Irish champion. There was apparently no fighting in the newcomer. A light punch on the breast and a right cross to the jaw were the only blows struck and these were delivered by Maher. The blow that Maher landed on the jaw was insufficient to knock out any man. The moment the men stepped into the ring it was plain that Morris sey was afraid.
 Both men fiddled for few moments and then Maher went right at his man and sent his left over the jaw. Morrissey fell in q neNtral corner and lay there, resting on his right elbow, while Maher strutted about the ring until the referee counted ten seconds.

 When court opened yesterday morn ing the attorneys for the defense made a motion asking that tEe case be dis missed on the ground that an eye wit ness to the killing, a son of MT. Wilson, who was supposed to have been at the house. had not been subpOnaed as a witness This was the first intimation to the prosecution that there had been an eye witness and on presentation of these facts the motion was denied
 Argument in the case began shortly before noon yesterday. District Attor- hey Land opened for the prosecution, pointing out the weakness of the evi- dence for the defense and demanding the averaging of the law and a just punishment for the men who took the lives of two brave officers who were simply engaged in the performance of their sworn duty.
 Judge Reilly followed for the de fense and spoke for nearly two hours, laying great stress on the fact that Moore was an enemy of the Halder- mans and should not have been sent on such an errand. He was followed by Hon. M. A. Smith for the defense and Mir. A. R. English made the clos ing speech for the prosecution.
 The verdict seems to meet with the general approval of the public.
