OUTPOST STEAMSHIPS
 ALMOST CONTINUOUS
MEDIATION WAS
 NOT CONSIDERED
CONFERENCE BETWEEN voN 5UE- LOW AND ITALIAN PREMIER THOUGHT To PERTAIN TO BIG RAILROAD PROJECT.

Berlin, September 2s.-signor Gioletti, the Italian premier. left Hamburg today for Racconnigi Italy, after a two days visit to Chancellor von Buelow, which at this juneture of international affairs has naturally given rise to conjectures that the conference concerned partly the question of mediatory offers in the far eastern war.
 The German, as well as the British and Italian press, was quick to comment on this probability. The conjectures, how ever. have brought out equally prompt de- nial from the government organs. The National zeitung in an evidently inspired paragraph, styles the reports that the conference dealt ,.itn the question of mediation as "absurd falsflcation."
 Several of the newspapers close to the government point out that owing to tse absence of an expression of a desire for mediation on the part of either the Rus sian or Japanese governments, mediatory proposals are out of the question.
 The National Zeitung and Vossische Zeitung intimate that neither belligerent is desirous of foreign intervention, and that peace ultimately will be brought about by direct negotiations. No trust worthy statement regarding t,e retl pur- port of the conference has been given out. It. Is believed in some quarters that 1t concerned German financing of pro- 5ect to nationalize the Italian railroads.

TEXAS YIELD WILL
 BE SOME SMALLER
ESTIMATE BASED ON REPORTS FROM CORRESPONDENTS SCAT TERED OVER I'll. STATE SHOWS CROP OF s,oos,e24 BALES.

Dallas, Tex, Septemebr 2S.-The Gal veston-Dallas News will tomorrow pub fish reports from 300 correspondents at representative cotton points in Texas, ln- dian Territory and Oklahoma, making statements of the yield realized or prob ably to be realized. These indicate the following:
 Yield in Texas per acre, 5.2 per cent smaller than last year; Indian Territory. 1T per cent larger; Oklahoma, 1872 per cent larger.
 Indicated production:
 Texas and Indian Territory, o,OOS,92i bales.
 Oklahoma. 29s, ,4eS bales.
 Except in the most northerly portions, practically all the Texas crop is open. Picking has been concluded in the south ernmost counties.
 It is estimated that 45 per cent of the Texas crop has been picked; Indian Ter ritory 16 per cent; Oklahoma, per cent.
 Boil Weevils, leaf worms and fin some districts dry weather prevented effective fruiting. except in the most northerly districts where the frost Is postponed unusually long.
 Much of the open cotton Is of the early maturing varieties. Fears are entertained that IL will be lost should bad weather come before pickers reach it. However, conditions for picking generally continue favorable Scarcity of labor Is uniformly reported

DISCUSS PEACE PLANS.
Conference of Institute of Interna- tionaI Law Is on in Edinburgh.

Edinburgh, Scotland, September a. The conference of the institute of inter national law which began here September 26, concluded today. President Roose- velt's announcement that he will shortly call a second peace conference at The Hague was discussed
 While the conference did not pass a further definite resolution on the subject, 1t gave evidence of undoubted sympathy with this effort to further cause of arr bitration.
 Professor DeMartins professor of inter national law at the University of St. Pe- tersburg, Heferred to the ukase issued in Februarv by the Russian government defining what course should be observed during the war. The professor pointed out that some of the declarations con- tained in the ulase were the result of the deliberations of The Hague conference. but certain of The Hague conventions on which the ukase was partly framed had been agreed on for a term of five years. Hence, they expired in July, 1904, and had not been renewed.
