EXPECT A PEACE PACT
More Hopeful Feeling Among
Base Ball Men.
CONFERENCE STILL On
CINCINNATI MEETING MAY LAST
OVER TOMORROW.
Pat Powers Wants a General Under
standing Among Leagues About
Contract Jumping.
CONFERENCE STILL On

CINCINNATI, January 1O.-After being In
separate conferences during the night and
again this morning at their respective hotels
the joint conferences of the committees of
the National and American base ball leagues
was resumed at IL a. m. today.
The drift of sentiment before the confer
ees went into executive session was that
both sides had carefully considered the off
ferent questions since the adjournment last
night, so that they would adopt some
specific order of business today and pro-
ceed in a parliamentary way on motions to
consider the different matters in dispute,
and If favorable action was secured with
unanimity ON the leading points at issue,
after which the attorneys would draw up
some peace pact in accordance with the
motions carried for final adoption. The
meeting opened today with all feeling cheer
fully hopeful, quite different from the meet
ing CT yesterday, when each side doubted
the sincerity of the other and neither could
any prospect of accomplishing any
peaceful result
Consultation With Attorneys.
Previous to the joint conference some
of the conferees were in consultation with
attorneys, but this was not for the pur-
pose of drafting any document, but for
Information on issues raised yesterday. The
joint conference did not reconvene until
an hour after the appointed hour on ac-
count of the consultation of the eight con-
ferees with partners in ownership, man
ayers and others who were in the lobby.
Many kilograms were received during the
forenoon by the conferees from their alb
sent associates, and the delay in reassem-
bling was partly due to the desire of some
for further advices. None but the eight
conferees was admitted to the conference
room again today. Among the additions
to the groups in the lobby today was Pat
Powers of New York. president of the
National Association of Base Ball Clubs.
He was advocating another conference
soon between committees Of the National
and American leagues on one side and OF
all the minor leagues on the other side for
an agreement to protect the Tinor leagues
from contract jumping. He wants the old
national alliance re-established under more
restrictive provisions.
Today 1t is thought probable that the
conference may continue over Sunday, but
all now think there will be peace pact
adopted.

SETTLEMENT WITH CHINA.
Liberal Policy Of This Country Dis
approved by Europe.

EO11Cy VI 4u1S Lib.
approved by Europe.
LONDON, January 1O-The negotiations
between the powers regarding the method
of paying the Chinese indemnity are pro-
ceeding. Washington's acceptance Of the
Chinese proposal to pay in silver does not
meet with the cordial approval of Europe.
A foreign office official said to represen-
tative of the Associated Press today:
America and England have both been
peculiarly generous to China. but this last
step meets with considerable opposition in
various quarters. We are willing to do
everything in our power. but the situation
is very complicated. The Chinese say that
If they have to pay in gold it will mean
their country's ruin. On the other hand, II
the payment is made in silver at the pres
ent value of the tael the indemnity, which
was made as low as it consistently could
be made, will be enormously reduced. Pos
sibly we may be able to reach some COM
promise which will be satisfactory not only
to the United States, but to the other pow
ers who do not feel so generously inclined.
by an extension of the time, for -payments
and other arrangements, by which all the
creditor nations may be satisfied and seri-
Gus consequences to China averted."

Controversy Over Requisition
for Equipment and Clothing.
NO ACTION TO BE TAKEN
SECRETARY MOODY DOES NOT RE-
GARD ACTION AS NECESSARY.
Charges Made by the officers Against
Each Other as a Result Of Mis-
understanding an Order.

The Secretary OF the Navy has been called
upon to decide a controversy between Rear
Admiral r. D. Evans, commanding the
Asiatic station, and Rear Admiral A. S.
Kenny, paymaster general of the navy,
each Of whom has made charges against
the other. The trouble between the two is
the result of a misunderstanding Of or
der issued by the Navy Department in re-
gard to certain changes in the equipment
and clothing Of enlisted men of the navy.
1t appears that Rear Admiral Evans made
formal reQuisitlon on the Navy Department
for large quantity of material to effect
the changes prescribed by the order. The
requisition was referred to Paymaster Gen.
eral Kenny chief of the bureau of sup
plies and accounts. He returned it to Rear
Admiral Evans with the statement that
such an immediate and wholesale change in
uniform as contemplated by the requsition
was contrary to the interests Of the govern
ment. He added the remark that if it were
approved the government would have on
its hands large amount of old material,
which it was desirable to use before the
new aterlal was drawn upon.
Rear Admiral Evans referred this conf
munication to the Secretary of the Navy.
with the comment that Admiral Kenny had
not only exceeded his authority but had
been disrespectful to brother officer. He
properly treated the Secretary Of the Navy
by questioning the wisdom Of an order is
sued by him.
Capt. Cowles' Ruling.
The matter was referred to the bureau of
navigation, and Capt. Cowles. the acting
chief. sustained the position taken by the
paymaster general. The papers were then
sent to Admiral Kenny for explanation, and
in his reply he asserted that the communi-
cation from Admiral Evans contained state
ments in violation of the naval regulations,
in that they reflected upon the paymaster
general. He alleged also that Admiral
Evans had been guilty of misconduct in
with a copy of his charges, a requirement
which Admiral Kenny did not overlook in
his own accusations against Admiral Evans
by mailing q copy Of them to that officer,
duly certified and otherwise put in official
form. There was further correspondence
without, however developing anything
especially interesting.
Will Be Dropped.
Secretary Moody does not regard the in
cident sufficiently serious to call for ac-
tion on his part, and it will be allowed to
drop. The correspondence has become part
Of the official records, and may be revived
at any time. Rear Admiral Kenny will re-
tire for age on the 18th instant, but at the
request Of the President and the Secretary
Of the Navy he will continue to serve as
chief of the bureau Of supplies and accounts
until his bureau commission expires In Nav
next.
