most capable and sure of making them

CONTRACTOR UNDER ARREST
CHARGE of Mansauuhter Made but Aft
erwards Withdrawn.

Chicago Jan. 6--Dayid Jones of the
Fuller Construction company has been
formally charged with manslaughter.
The charge is made by the police.
Jones is alleged TO have removed after
the fire the skylight that prevented
the flames from going upward through
the roof and sent them instead deal
ing death through The audience.
The police theory is that the re-
moval of the slylight showed knowl-
edge of the fastening of the skylight
before the fire.
After the police announced their in
tention of holding Jones on the charge
of manslaughter Jones attorney sue
ceeded in convincing Assistant Chief
Schuettler that the charge was not
justified Later Schuettler announced
that the formal charge had been with
drawn, but that Jones would be held
as a witness.
The police later formally booked
Jones on two charges, one of malicious
mischief and one of destroying prop
erty without the owners consent

recent course demonstrates the unsaJ-
!sfactGry nature of present conditions.
The !eDcCupation Of Mukden and the
continued occupation of Tatongkao
have undoubtedly al the effect of in
tlmidatine China and OF preventing
her from fulfilling her treaty obliga-
tions with the United States and Japan
with respect to the opening of those
places TO the commerce Of the world.
So also as regards Korea, il is now
known that the Joint efforts of Great
Britain, the United States and Japan
10 open the Ialu 10 foreign commerce
al large were on the eve of success
when the Russian occupation of Yon-
gamnho blocked the plan for the time
being These and similar events in
Korea and Manchuria justify the ap
prehersion that if affairs are permit
ted To proceed uninterruptedly in their
present course a large part of the
shores OF the Yellow sea. not to men
tion the interior of Manchuria, will be
closed TO the commerce OF the civilized
world. II is of vital import ance to
Japan that this should not happen and
it is plain that the final issue depends
solely upon Russia's Willingness TO
recognize this fact"

KNAPP GETS NEW TRIAL.
Self.Confessed Ohio Murderer Now
Awaiting Execution.

Hamilton, O.. Jan. 6.-Alfred A.
Knapp. self-confessed murderer of five
persons, now in the penitentiary at
Columbus awaiting execution for the
murder of his wife, has been granted
new trial by Judge Swing. Knapp
will be taken from the deathhouse and
brought back for a new trial
The principal ground on which the
new trial was granted by the court
was alleged error in allowing Knapp S
written confession of five murders TO
be read to the jury.
The court held that while that part
relating to the murder of his wife,
Hannah. was admissible it was not ad-
missable in connection with the recital
of OF her crimes

MAKES GREAT CONCESSIONS TC
JAPAN IN REPLY TO LAT
TER's DEMANDS.
HOPES THEY WILL PROVE ACCEPTABLE
CERTAIN POINTS ACCEPTED AMI
OTHERS NET BY COUNTER
PROPOSALS.

st. Petersburg Jan. 6.-In her reply
to Japan Russia made great conces
sions and hopes her proposals VII
prove acceptable TO Japan.
The foreign Office informed the AS
sociated Press that instructions hac
been sent to Niceroy AleXietf on which
the reply was based. The latter was
drawn up in the most conciliatory
spirit.
Some OF the Japanese proposals
were accepted, while others were
made the subject of extended observa
tions and were met by counter pro
posals.
There are strong hopes in many cir
cles that on Thursday next, the Rus
sian Christmas, the czar may be able
to announce that peace is assured.
TOXIC. Jan. 6.-The Russian reply tc
Japan has not yet been received.
1t is reported from Vladvostocb
that the Russian squadron there Is
preparing for action.
An extra edition of the Official Ga
Zette has been issued containing army
and navy orders prohibiting the publ
cation Of any reports OF the move
ments of troops or war vessels from
this time on. Otherwise the Japanese
authorities are not interfering WIN
press messages.
According TO another report a Rus
sian cruiser has left Port Arthur with
y small military force on board It's
destination is unknown. but Is PROB
ably Chemulpo, Korea.

POSITION OF JAPAN.
View Taken by Island Empire in Pres
ent Crisis.

New York. Jan 6.-The Associated
Press has been furnished with the fol
lowing statement OF the japanese view
OF the present contention with Russia
by one who is in constant commGnica
tion with Toxic and whose knowledge
Of Japanese affairs and intimacy with
prominent Japanese give weight to his
opinion:
The negotiations between Russia
and Japan have reached crltlca
stage. although an amicable adjust
ment is still possible Russia S reply
to Japans latest representations VII
decide The issue. While neither gov
ernment has taken the public into It's
confidence il is not difficult 10 surmlse
the general tenor OF the views Whlcf
the Japanese government would eN
press. Something in the nature or ar
agreement between the two govern
ments whereby they bind themselves
To respect the independence and ter
toria integrity both OF China and ko
rea would naturally come first. Such
an agreement would probably include
also mutual recognition of the special
interests OF Russia in Manchuria and
OF Japan in Korea, coupled with an
agreement based on the principle OF
Equality of All Nations
as regards commercial opportunities
in those countries: that neither con
tracing party shall interfere with the
commercial rights of the other ac'
quired by treaty with China or Korea
In word 1t is probably the fact that
Japan has asked no more of Russia
than confirmation by international
contract of declarations repeatedly
and uneQuiyocally made by Russia her
self regarding the unselfish nature OF
her motives with reference to Man
churia. Russia's reply has evidently
been a surprise and disappointment
to Japan. Ii is now generally under
stood that Russia has virtually re-
fused 10 discuss the situation In Man
churia and has proposed something in
he nature OF a neutral zone in North
ern Korea, on the Manchurian from
tier, extending as far as Wongtan on
the east and Pngyang on the west.
1t is difficult to perceive how Japan
could possibly accept this proposal.
To consent to the indefinite prolonga-
tion OF Russia's stay upon the borders
OF Korea and 10 the naturalization OF
nearly one-third OF the latter's terri
tory would be fatal menace TO the
independence of Korea, which Japan
must defend at all costs, as the safety
OF the peninsula which is the outpost
of her line of defense, is indispensi-
BILE to Japan's own repose and secur-

would be impossible to leave to the
caprice OF third power. Russia's
