the same strain and said that he be-
lieyed the people were done an injus-
tice in turning Roberts down.

London, Dec. 16.--As might have been

something in the nature of momen-

was reflected on the stock exchange.
1t is long since the tons of the news
papers and the comment in the clubs

so far-reaching that Great Britain

The Evening Standard declares the
situation calls for all the equanimity,
determination and perseverance of the

We are thinking fof hostile Europe;

Cheyenne, June 9.-General Manager
Ed Dickinson and Superintendent Har-
ris of the Union Pacific returned this
evening from Casper, where they have
been directing the chase for the three
men who dynamited and robbed the
Union Pacific express train.
In an interview. Mr.. Dickinson stated
that every possible effort to effect their
capture is being made. When last
heard from, the robbers stopped at a
ranch seventy-five miles north of Cas-
per, where they compelled the ranch
man to furnish them with food. The
rancher observed the robbers carefully,
and states positively that the three
men are Currie and the Robert broth
ers, the notorious bandits who robbed
the Bell Fourche. s. D.. bank, and who
have been a terror to central Wyoming
for wears.
The posse in charge of federal Of
ficers which was pursuing the robbers
was miles behind, and with few chances
of capturing the bandits, who are now
on their own ground and among
friends.
General Manager Dickinson states
that the Union Pacific will continue the
hunt for the robbers for an indefinite
period. In his opinion the three men
who killed Sheriff Hazen were the only
ones that We're in the hold-up- The
three horses which were captured from
the robbers were brought in this even

.REORGAN|zE ARMY OF CHINA
PROPOSITION MADE BY REAR
ADMIRAL BERESFORD.
Wants Great Britain to Make Move
and Let United States, Germany
and Japan Follow.

London. June 9.-In the house CT
commons today Rear Admiral Charles
Beresford, Conservative member for
York City. delivered a scathing criti-
cism of the governments policy On
drifting" in China. during which he
said the government had deceived the
people and allowed the open door pol
icy to be finally killed by permitting
Russia to interfere in a purely COM
mercial enterprise like the Shanghai
Kwan railroad
The admiral then proposed that the
four countries most interested-Great
Britain. the United States, Japan and
Germany-go to China and offer to take
over and organize her army, adding
that if Great Britain took the lead, he
was sure the United States would fol-
low. and that he also had distinct
intimation that Japan would join in
such a movement.
The parliamentary secretary OF the
foreign office. the Rt. Hon. ST. John
Broderick, replied, pointing out the eff
ficulties in meeting Lord BeresfOrd' $
desire that Great Britain take the con-
troll of the government of China, adding
that he thought his lordship was over
sanguine in believing the United States
would follow the lead of Great Britain.
Germany. he continued, had great In
terests in China. but she had a thOu-
sand times greater interest in Europe

WAGE WAR ON TUBERCULOSIS
CHICAGO AUTHORITIES WILL
HAVE ALL COWS EXAMINED.
Milk Coming From Animals Not
Known to Be Free From Disease
Will Be Rejected.

Chicago, June 9.-Public war on tu-
berculosis was formally declared last
night, when the Chicago Veterinary
society, at a meeting. decided to take
the initiative in the crusade against the
scourge. To that end the society called
joint conference of the veterinarians
and physicians of Chicago to meet on
Wednesday, June 81, at a place to be
decided upon after 1t is determined
whether the public shall be admitted.
Mayor Harrison, Governor Tanner and
the aldermen will be invited. The pur-
pose of the meeting will be to form
specific plans for the prevention of the
sale of milk in the Chicago market that
is not known to have come from nom
tuberculosis cows.
A committee was appointed to con-
fer with the Chicago Medical society
and other institutions in reference to
the details of the conference. The pa
pers to be read at the conference are
to be confined to the subject of regulat-
ing the sale of milk with a view of ex-
terminating the source of tuberculous
milk. The veterinarians will advocate
legislation for the inspection of the
cows that supply the Chicago market.
The plan that stood most in favor at
the meeting was that suggested by DR..
E. J.. Quitman. He said:
1T is necessary that we induce the
city council to take action for the APP
pointment of at least sixty COW in
spectors. The inspectors shall then
give licenses to such owners whose
cows are found to be non-tuberculous.
These cows shall be tested every three
months. The city shall appoint as many
milk depots for the inspection of in
coming SHIPMENTS of milk as are
deemed necessary. Every can of milk
that is shipped into the city shall bear
upon it the number of the shippers
license"

The Hague, June 9.-The peace con-
ference entered today upon its most
important stage, when the drafting
committee of the third section took up
arbitration. According to a foreign
delegate the American scheme does not
seem to have obtained the support of
many of the delegates.

realized this and have virtually aban-

NJ. Francois Coppee has advised the
members of the Patriotic League not to
attend the Grand Prix. The Gaulois.
the leading Conservative and Royalist
organ, commenting upon the Socialist
threat to cause trouble, says:
Under these conditions it will be out
of the question to take ladies to Long
champs, and, therefore, we advise our
readers to stay at home.
If this advice is followed the Grand
PriX will lose much OF its picturesque
ness. One of the sporting papers as
sert that several of the principal own
ers intend to scratch their horses from
the Grand Prix. But it is believed this
report is premature, and that the at
tempts of the titled world in this di-
rection have been in vain.

Signment of corners, for the great
lights shone into his face and lie
blinked at them in a nervous sort Of
way. Siler, too, looked colorless and
i'll at ease.
There was no trying delay in the
ring, and the big gong sounded out
just as soon as the men had been pre-
scented and gloved. When they squared
off. JeffrieS looked fifty pounds to The
good.
The opening round was a try-out,
pure and simple, and not a single blow
of an effective nature was landed.
First one was the pace-maker and
then the other essayed the pressing.
They We're almost equally active, and
the clever work recompensed the crowd
for the lack of excitement
The second round began in a bust
ness-like way, with Jeffries trying his
left. Fitzsimmons then took turn,
but was short. Just as the round
closed, Jeffries downed Fitzsimmons
with a hard straight left on the Jaw.
The champion came up slowly in a
daZed sort of way, and reeled toward
his man. The crowd cheered Jeffries,
but the gong ended the round.
Fitzsimmons rallied in the rest and
was aggressive in the third. Fitz-
simmons was bleeding, but fighting
viciously. He made the pace, but it
was the Californian's round. The
fourth was fast, but not decisive.
Fitz's Best Showing.
Fitzsimmons made his best showing
during the fifth. He began the round
with punch that opened Jeffries' left
eye and sent little torrent of blood
courSing down his cheek. He forced
Jeffries against the ropes. but the Cali

made Jeffries hug again, but the round
ended and JeffIies was back and fight
ing.
Fitzsimmons was the aggressor in the
sixth, and that, too, was his round. He
tried all of his tricks with left and
right, but was unable to place them
right. He closed with a strong right
uppercut, but that, too, was blocked.
The seventh might be said to have
been FitZsimmons' but he did no par
ticular damage with his punches.
The eighth saw the beginning of the
end for F'itZsimmonS never regained
his balance after that round. Jeffries
began the round with straight left
on the face that again brought the
blood out of his opponents mouth. The
Cornishman staggered against the
ropes, but came back for another facer.
There was fear in Fitzsimmons' cor
ner, and Julian yelled to FitZsimmons
to be careful. Fitzsimmons planted
one OF his lefts on Jeffries' jaw and
staggered him against the ropes. Fitz-
simmons looked like a beaten man.
The ninth was all Jeffries'. He sent
the Australians head back with a
series of lefts, put his right on the body
and avoided any serious punishment.
FftZsimmons kept pressing forward all
the time, however, but was unable to
find his opponent.
Beginning of the End.
The tenth was in reality where the
fight ended Jeffries rushed his oppo-
nent and downed him with a left
swing. F'ftzsimmons seemed out, and

Washington. June 9.-The cabinet, in
connection with the possible necessity

of several skeleton regiments In Ma

subsequent filing out of these regi-

General Otis, according to the plan,
