JAPAN ORDERS LARGE QUAINT
TIES OF N!c LEAD FROM NEW
SOUTH WALES.
RUSSIA IS QUITE DIPLOMATIC
EXPECTED JAPAN TO REQUEST
A RECONSIDERATION OF
PROPOSALS.

London, Dec. 27.-The Daily Mails
Kobe correspondent says it is repotred
that the note to Baron Komura, min
lister of foreign affairs, to Baron de
Rosen, the Russian minister, in re-
spouse to Russia's reply to the claims
of Japan, had a paragraph that only
two weeks would be allowed for an
answer. This period expires Jan. z.
The correspondent of the Daily Mail
at Sydney, N. S. w., cables that the
Japanese government has placed or
ders for large quantities. of pig lead
with New South Wales concerns, and
that the presumption is that this lead
will be used for the manufacture of
bullets.
Quite Diplomatic.
st. Petersburg, Dec. 26.-The Rus
sian government is still considering
the reply Of the Japanese government
to it's note which was sent in answer
to Japan's demands relating to the
situation in the Far East.
A reconsideration Of the proposals
made in the Russian note is consid-
cred as a matter of course here.
Russia has not been disposed to take
any step which would lead to an alb
rupt termination of the negotiations
with Japan.
In answer to many inquiries made
by the Associated Press, the Russian
foreign Office always insisted that the
Russian proposals were SO liberal that
1T scarcely would be probable to con-
ceive any further concessions.
While the foreign office is unwilling
to admit that Russia is prepared to
offer more than the concessions out
lined in the last note, it is considered
possible that the government may sug-
gest changes by which the Russian re-
quirements may be met and satisfac.

Japs Back Their Emperor.
Toxic, Dec. 27.-At a dinner given
by the Oriental association last night
Former Foreign Minister Kato who
presided. said he deeply regretted
that the people had not been taken
into the confidence of the government
regarding the position Of affairs be-
tween Japan and Russia. Neverthe-
less, he said should the emperor de-
clare war; the nation would be found
ready to give him unanimous support.
Count Okuma, the former premier,
said he agreed with the view ex-
pressed by Mr.. Kato. and he thought
that 1t was now high time to let the
people know the actual position occu-
pied by the government He also de.
clared that not only a feeling of chiv-
airy, but desire for selfpreservation
required that Japan should buttress
the integrity Of China.
Both speakers thought that the sit
uation had reached an extremely crit
lcal stage.
Revives Korean War Scare.
London, Dec. 27.--The Tien-tsin cor.
respondent of the Standard revives

days ago, to the effect that q secret

FOUNDER OF METHoDIsM
The Two Hundredth Anniversary
 Celebrated in Boston.

Boston, June 29-A two days cele- bration of the 200th anniversary of the bitrh of John Wesley, by the Metho- dists of the New England conference, was begun to-day. In preparing for the observance of the bi-centennial of the great preacher, the conference committee planned to make the meet ings significant by bringing together representatives of the three branches of the Methodist church in North America, including those of the Metho- dist Episcopal church south and the Nsthodist Episcopal church in Canada. The efforts off the committee were sue cessful and Bishop Charles H. Fowler of Buffalo from the north, Bishop Eu- gene R. Hendrix of Kansas City from the south, and Rey-A. Carman of Can ada were among the leading speakers
 The general program of the two days proceedings included tributes to Wes- ley from representatives of other de nominations at the opening session and at other meetings addresses by Rev MT. Carman of Canada, Bishop Hen dirk, Rev George Jackson of Edin- burgh. Scotland; Rev W. F. Mallalieux, resident bishop of New England, and Bishop Fowler.

Comet Fully Photographed, Showing

 San Jose, Gal, June 29.The follow ing report was received from Lick ob- servatory last evening:
 ''The conspicuous white spot on Saturn which was observed at Lick ob- servatory on Wednesday had not again been in a favorable position for identi- 'dcation until Sunday morning, when it was looked up at the observatory. The spot appeared to have divided too far to be easily distinguishable

1 JULY DIVIDEND.
win Be Substantially Larger Than
 8l-.a. "

win Be Substantially Larger Than
 Those of a Year Ago.
 New York, June 29.-The July divi- dend disbursements at this center will be substantially larger than those at this time year ago, when the total for leading railroad, industrial and banking corporations was calculated al $125,pO0sDO0 But apparently they will not be greatly larger than the to- tai disbursements in January of this year, which were at that time placed at $132, 100000. Taking the detailed compilations on the two previous oc- casfons and making allowances for changes in the rate of dividend or in the amount of securities on which divi- dend or interest are paid thetotaldis- bursements for the class of companies included in the previous calculations may be estimated with fair accuracy at $137 100000.
 Although there have been hundreds of millions of dollars of new stocks and bonds issued during the past twelve months by railroad and industrial cor porations, it happens that nearly all of the large bond issues have interest payable in other months than July, and consequently any such payments are not reflected at the present time.

 Was His Subject-He Says the
 Crimes of the Past Week Cause Us
 To Be Chased With Russians and
 Servians.
 New York, June 29.-The Rev Dr McArthur in a sermon at Calvary Bap- tist church upon the spirit of lawless- ness as shown in recent lynchings and other disorders in several states, said his American pride had been severely chastened by the events of the past few weeks. No one who knew him, he said, would doubt his Americanism, however. and he had no sympathy with those foreigners who come here and live happily but refuse to assume the responsibilities of citizenship.
 Several persons in the congregation started for the door at this point, and the preacher said he would pause until all who wished to leave had done so, but none others arose.
 the crimes of the last week have caused us, he declared, to be classed with Servians and Russians. To cor ruption of the ballot, he said, large sbare of the responsibility was due.

 Findlay, O., June %. While attempt ing to arrest Fred Nippon for violating the Sunday saloon closing ordinance, Chief Kramer was shot in the arm and Police Captain Roth narrowly escaped being hit.
 The police were forcing an entrance through the front door when fired upon. Not until Roth had covered Kippen from side window did he give up and walk out.
 Kramer then started to enter the place, but was met with firing from the inside. Five officers were sum- moned from headquarters and the place was entirely surrounded. After one of Roth's shots cry went up from the in- side, indicating that one of the bullets had taken effect.
 Early today the place was still sur rounded, but the police were held at bay, as several attempts to enter met with firing from the inside.
