BACK AT OYSTER BAY
PRESIDENT RETURNS FROM VISIT
TO UNCLE.
Did Not Make Quite Such Good Time
Returning, Owing to Jaded
Horse.

OYSTER BAY, L. l., July 24-President
Roosevelt arrived at Sycamore Hill from
Sayville at 11:35 o'clock today. He left
Lotos Lake, the country home of his uncle,
Robert G. Roosevelt at O'Clock this morn
ing. accompanied by his eldest son, Theo-
dore, jr., and his two nephews. Their trip
consumed seven hours and a half.
On account of the bad condition of the
Presidents mount, Bleistein the party was
obliged to ride comparatively slowly. Last
evening the President feared that the horse
might not be In condition this morning for
the return trip, but it was decided that by
riding easily he could cover the distance
thirty-five miles-without serious difficulty.
The President and his young companions
arrived at Sycamore Hill somewhat IA
tigued, but otherwise in excellent condi-
ton. Including the President all We're en-
thusiastic over the trip, which they greatly
enjoyed.
President Roosevelt soon after his ar
rival began with Secretary Barnes to dis
pose of the business which had accumu-
lated during his absence. No visitors are
expected at Sycamore Hill during the day,
but Secretary of Navy Moody will arrive
this evening on a tug from the Brooklyn
navy yard. He will pass the night and a
part of tomorrow at Sycamore Hill.
SAYVILLE, l.. l., July A.-President
Roosevelt started from his uncles home for
Sycamore Hill at o'clock this morning.
He was on horseback, and was accompa-
MED by his son and nepheWs.

DEATH OF THE TREATY.
Provision for the Acquisition of the
Danish West Indies.

The treaty providing for the acquisition
by the United States of the Danish West
Indian Islands, St. Thomas, ST. John and
st. Croix officially died today. The treaty
as submitted to the Senate originally pro-
vided that the ratificatiOns should be ex-
changed within six months after January
"a. 1902, the day of signature. Before that
time elapsed, it being apparent that the
Senate would not act finally upon the
treaty. the period allowed for the exchange
of ratifications- was extended for one year,
bringing 1T down to this day.
The failure of the Danish rigsdag to ap-
prove the treaty last spring, though not
finally closing all hope of ratification was
accepted here as practically disposng of the
treaty, and while the way has been kept
open for belated action on the part of the
Danish government, If there had been a
change of sentiment in that country there
was little hope entertained here of the ces-
sion If Denmark should eventually con-
clude to sell the islands to the Unite /
States, 1t will be possible to revive the pro-
visions of the treaty which has Just failed ;
meantime the position of the State Depart
ment is comfortable, for, having done its
part toward completing the bargain the
American government of course will not
sanction the sale of the islands by Den
mark to any other government.

A MoDUs VIvEND1.
Late Advices From Bolivia Concerning
the Acre Dispute.

Advices from Bolivia recently received
in this city say that President Pando was
making preparations for attacking the
revolutfonsts under Placido Castro when
he received advice that protocol estab-
fishing a modus vivendi between Bolivia
and Brazil had been signed at La Peg
by those two countries. pending the final
settlement of the Acre dispute. President
Pando Immediately sent an officer to meet
General Sylveira, commander of the Bra
lillian army in Acre. and the two reached
an agreement to suspend hostilites during
the period of the modus vivendi.
The modus vivendi established that Boil
via should allow the military occupation
by Brazilian forces of the Acre as far as
parallel 10 deg. % min., and also that Brazil
should receive 30 per cent of the customs
receipts south of that line Bolivia was
compelled to make this concessions to avoid
a with which Brazil threatened her
Brazifs whole object is considered to be to
gain possession of the Acre territory, re-
gardless of Bolvia's acknowledged rights
to it, and this, it is believed was the real
cause of her tenacious opposition to the
establishment of an American syndicate
in Acre, to which Bolivia had made strong
concessions. Brazil. however 1t is said,
finally induced this syndicate to give up
it's concessions through payment of an in
demnity of f11O,00O and also started a
great alarm through the Brazilian press
against the so-called imperialistic policy of
the United States in South America.

NO WAR FOR JAPAN
Statement of Member of Lon
don Legation.
WAR TALK SECUTED
GOVERNMENT WILL CONTINUE TO
WATCH RUSSIA.
Crisis May Come in October, When
Cars Forces Are Pledged to
Quit Manchuria.

LONDON. July A.-Japan has decided to
observe the policy of waiting and watching
Russia, advocated by Great Britain. In the
meantime she will urge China TO carry out
the assurances given to the United States
respecting Manchuria and will endeavor to
obtain the opening of additional ports.
At the japanese legation here the follow
ing statement was made 10y an official to
the Associated Press:
Il assure you that the talk of war
between Russia and Japan is an invention.
Japan has not the least intention of taking
that course. She proposes to wait and
maintain her attitude of watchfulness.
Japan and America are acting on the same
lines, and it would be difficult for any other
power to withstand the pressure they and
Great Britain could apply
Crisis Will Come in October.
II is said that Japan intends to do nothing
till October, when the final evacuation OF
Manchuria must occur. The failure of Rus
sia to withdraw from Manchuria would be
followed by a serious move on the part of
Japan.
The Russian embassy here regrets the
confusion which has arisen in consequence
of the publication of the report that Prince
Ching, head of the Chinese foreign office.
had written to Minister Conger, refusing to
open ports in Manchuria. The Russian
officials believe with Washington that the
note was sent before China gave her as
suranceS, and they asserted positively that
Russia intends to carry out to the letter
the assurances she has given. and that she

CONTROLLERS DECISION.
st. Louis Commissioners Must Pay
Their Own Carriage Bills.

The controller of the treasury has rem
dered the painfully distressing opinion that
John Allen, the former wit Of the House.
and his associates on the national commls-
sion to the ST Louis exposition, must walk
in the future pay their own carria se
bills. The decision arose over question
whether the disbursing officer Of the COM
mission could pay s2S in carriage hire for
the month of June for the commissioners
out of the appropriation Of $4,000 to de-
fray the clerical, office and other necessary
expenses of the national commission. The
controller quotes the appropriation provid-
ing for the pay of the conlnlissi onerS and
shows that 1t gives 5000 to each commits
sioner each year as compensation for their
services and expenses" The controller
says that what Is a necessary EXPENSE of

commissioners is not easily determined.

carriages for all of them. He therefore

a necessary expense which the commission
must meet themselves. IKE national

ATHLETICS IN THE NAVY.
Proposed Establishment of Recreation
Halls and Grounds.

With a view to making the naval service
as attractive as possible to enlisted men the
navigation bureau is now working up a
scheme for the establishment of recreation
halls and grounds in the various navy yards
and stations. 1t is hoped that these will
by giving the men pleasurable employment
prevent them from frequenting outside
dives and will diminish desertions. One of
the most complete projects SO far unfolded
within reasonable price came from the Nor
folk navy yard The navigation bureau is
consulting the commandant at each yard
to elicit original views. This plan makes
provision for foot ball grounds, a base ball
diamond, a grand stand, a cinder track
SWIMMING pool and a recreation hall cost
ing $4,000, with gymnasium and library
dance hall and smoking room 1t is prob
able that where sufficient ground can be
obtained these Norfolk plans will be adopt

out the scheme a congressional appropria-
ton must be had. and that will be re-
quested at the next session of Congress
