principle the invitation to second
conference at The Hague and gladly
associated herself with the American
government in order to complete the
mission of the first great assembly
convened under the leadership of the
Russian emperor. The ambassador
was further requested to say that while
the Russian government very sincerely
cherished these views, 1t did not con-
slider the moment opportune for the
converting Of such conference until
the war In the far east was at an end.
Secretary Hay and Count Cassiri
were In conference for nearly an hour.
The ambassador was careful to assure
the secretary that his government well
coined the invitation Of the president
as an additional evidence OF the Amer
lean governments appreciation Of the
beneficent results Of the first confer-
ence, and regretted the necessity Of
suggesting postponement Of the work
then begun, a work In which the Rus
sian government no less than the
American Is keenly interested.
Secretary Hay thanked the ambassa :
dor for the cordially with which the
declaration OF Russia's adherence In
principle to the proposition had been
conveyed to the American government,
and assured him that he would forth
with transmit the reply to the presi-
dent.
Attic different in form. the Rus
sian reply does not differ In effect from
that Of Great Britain, France and the
other European powers, practically all
of which already have answered the
invitation. While Russia is the first
power specifically to suggest a post
ponement until the close OF the war all
the powers in expressing their approv-
al Of the proposition reserved for flu
ture pourparlers the time when the
conference should be held.
1t can be stated this government Is
we'll pleased with the reception Its note
has received. The powers signatory to
The Hague convention have been Of
ficially committed to second confer
ence at some future time. So far as
the Russian government Is concerned
1t is stated that 1t is naturally averse
to discussion of the many important
questions which would come before the
conference at a time when the atten-
ton is devoted to foreign war.
In diplomatic circles the news OF
Russia's considerate reply caused some
surprise. The caution which charac-
terized even the consideration of the
invitation at st. Petersburg made sew
eral ambassadors here doubtful about
the favorable reception of the Ameri-
can note. This doubt has been remov-
ed, however, by tho friendly terms In
which the reply yesterday was
coucned.
For the present II IL probable that
the American government Will rest on
it's oars When the far eastern war
enters on its final stage this govern
ment will be prepared to follow up Its
invitation. In the meantime should
Russia's attitude change she will find
the American government ready to
lead the powers Immediately to The
Hague for the second conference.

Matron Hill of Davenport to be per-

quest over the body Of John w. Bate,
the chauffeur who was murdered In his
automobile two weeks ago. was held
yesterday, at Lemont, Ill, and resulted
simply in verdict that Bate had been
killed by some person unknown"
1t was proved that no other person
was seen in the automobile except
Bate, and his passenger, "Mr. Dove"
and the conclusion Of all who attend
ed the inquest was that the murder
was the outcome Of a quarrel over a
question Of fare. There are no clues as
to the whereabouts of George Hugg,
who is charged with being Mr.. Dove"
and the police are still seeking him.

Mrs. Hatton was in Des Moines last
Saturday night n week ago. She was
forwarded on charity ticket" to
Davenport. The Davenport authorities
sent her on to Chicago. At Chicago
Mrs Hatton is well known and the OF
flcers knew that the best way to get
rid of her was to send her back to
Davenport. From Davenport she was
sent again to Des Moines, arriving
there Friday morning on the Rock Is
land. 1t was decided Friday evening to
send Mrs Hatton to Valley Junction.
She did not come back to Des Moines,
and 1t is supposed that the officials at
Valley Junction sent her on to Perry.
Letters have been sent urging Of

FLATS AND PNEUMONIA.

New York, Dec. docs the luxur-
ious steam heated fiat number more
victims than the deadly automobile!
Some doctors think so. They say that
before the big comparable apartment
houses sprang into existence there was
less pneumonia than there is today;
hence they charge the rapidly lncreas-
ing number of cases to the bad eifects
of living and sleeping In rooms mat
are overheated and poorly ventilated.
During the last month there were $50
deaths from pneumonia in Greater New
York. BY far the greater number OF
these deaths were in what is known
as the apartment house districts.
This is one Of the problems now be-

on pneumonia of which DR.. Thomas

whether living in steam heated rooms

colonel In the Austrian army and that
he had also studied law. In Buda Pesth
last summer he made the acquaintance
of the beautiful daughter Of mail car
rier. This man was intrusted with the
delivery Of the registered mail of the
city. and many times in the course of
his days work he would carry money
and Jewels, that would, II taken at
their monetary value, amount to a
kings ransom.
Papp won the young wornan's affec-
lions and when he proposed to her and
she consented to marry him he point
ed out that almost an insur1nountable
barrier was placed against the union
by their poverty. He told her of the
money that her father carried each
day and how easily she could take the
erica and start life with snug for
tune.
The young woman listened, and one
noontime while her father was eating
she stole the registered mail bag. The
robbery was soon discovered but the
identity Of the thief was unknown.
All Of the time that the young wo-
man had been listening to the ardent
words of her lover he had been play
ing dual game. When not at work or
visiting her, he had been putting in his
time in the company Of a divorced wo-
man Of the city of Buda Pesth named

Papp stood ready to receive the stolen
property. AS soon as he received it he
went to the home of the woman Lola"
