eel all the others given.
Special cars and u special train are
to be conducted and these will be the
best that the Scaboard has. In No

the rates Will be the lowest offered

her. Besides this there viii be special

MOST MARVELLOUS GOOD.
This the Peace Congress Fades
Suavely Away.
(By the Associated Press.)

Boston, Mass, oct. 5.-There were
two aspects memorable in their ma
ture, according to the delegates them
selves, which have made a pro-
nounced impression during the delib-
erations of the International Peace
Congress, which was brought to a
close today in this city, after many
meetings extending throughout the
week One of these was that the
congress. together with it's numerous
public gatherings which were held
under its auspices, constituted one of
the most remarkable educational in
fiuences ever observed in America.
The second aspect or conviction was
that this years congress should prove
of vast efficacy towards the attain
ment of universal peace. if a reused
public sentiment and a thorough eX-
position of the abSurdity and horror
of warfare was to be of any avail
whatsoever. The congress was adj
journed today to continue it's work in
1905 at Lucerne. Switzerland. Be-
sides adopting resolutions denouncin 6
war and calling for the creation of in
ternational obligatory intreaties the
congress today recommended an in
quiry by the powers into the Congo
Free State
The present sso-Japanese war
was treated by a resolve calling
upon the IImperors of the two coun-
tries to end the conflict at once. or
that failing, for the powers to exercise
the authority granted by article 81 of
the Hague Pact and intervene SO that
the war might be terminated. In
this connection the congress suggested
to the powers the adoption of a posi-
tive peace making and peace insuring
treaty under which al! war would be
possible but for a brief period.
