INTERNATIONAL PEACE COMMIS.
SION TAKES ACTION IN FAR
EASTERN DISPUTE.
CIRCULAR NOTE TO THE POWERS
COMMUNICATION GIVEN SERIOUS
CONSIDERATION BY SOME
GOVERNMENTS.

Paris, Jan. 22-It has been learned
In official quarters that the interna-
tional peace commission, having it's
headquarters at Berne, which is an
adjunct of The Hague arbitration
tribunal, has sent a circular note to
the powers asking for the adoption of
means to secure a settlement of the
Russo-Japanese controversy.
The note has received serious atten-
tion from some of the governments,
including, it is understood, that of
Washington, which has taken steps to
learn the attitude of the foreign gov
ernments towards the proposition.
1t is expected that France will not
act upon this note, as Foreign Min
lister Delcasse has already taken what
is considered to be more effective
means of exerting influence upon Rus
sia

TRUST PLAN HAS FAILED.
Several German Steel Manufacturers
Refuse to Join Combine.

Berlin, Jan. 22.-The attempt to Or
ganize all the great German steel in
terests into a syndicate has failed.
The conferences succeeded in splitting
the steel industry into two groups, the
first of which includes the manufac-
turers of half rolled goods, girders and
other simple structural forms, while
the second is composed of the manu-
facturers of steel rails and other rail-
way material. The second group en-
braces the sixteen great companies
which took the lead in trying to effect
the general organization.
These companies have now decided
to hold together and to begin a price
war upon the companies who refused
to accept the terms offered for the
general steel syndicate. The outside
companies include such important es-
Establishments as the Krupp gun works,
the Bochum Cast Steel company, the
Westphalian steel works, the Hasper
company and all the Silesian manufac-
turers. Another meeting will be called
for Feb. 5, when the first group of
manufa acturers will invite all the out
side makers of half rolled goods and
girders to join in movement to COM
pei the second group to come to terms.
1t is expected that this war OF prices
will be carried into foreign markets
and that it will result in lower prices
for German steel products than ever
before

HORSE ON HIGH TREsTLE.
Speeds Over Ties Safely but Finally
Collides With Engine.

Duluth, jan pa remarkable acci-
dent was witnessed by hundreds of
Duluth people on the Great Northern
trestle which stretches for mile from
the Union depot to the water front on
Rices point.
The trestle is about 200 feet high
and people were amazed when they
saw horse running over it away from
the depot.
The spaces between the ties we're
wide enough to allow the animals feet
to go through, but he never stumbled.
Soon it was observed that a passen-
ger traA was approaching from the
opposite direction and was moving
rapidly. Horse and train we're ap-
preaching each other. Engineer George
Gill whistled a warning and reversed
his engine, but the horse galloped on
as surefooted as on a paved street.
The train had almost stopped when
the horse dashed into the locomotive
and, with the recoil, it's feet slipped be-
tween the ties. The horses leg was
broken and it was necessary to shoot
him.

APPEAL FOR PEACE.
Said Russia Will Ask Powers to Avert
Mar

London, Jan. 22.-The Toxic corre-
spondent of the Reuters Telegram
company cables that the privy council
met during the day and received a
lengthy detailed report from Foreign
Minister Koruna regarding the nego-
tiations with Russia.
The Japanese newspapers publish
report from Continental sources, the
correspondent continues, that Russia
has decided to appeal to the powers
to avert war. This is regarded here
as proof of Russia's unreadiness to
make satisfactory concessions.
Cabling from Toxic the correspond
ent of the Standard says the privy
council has approved an urgent Or
dinance empowering the commanders
of admiralty stations to prevent for
eign warships, by force if necessary,
from entering certain ports in time of
emergency.
The Toxic correspondent of the;
Daily Telegraph declares the privy
council, at meeting during the day,
discussed a proposal to issue an order
in the event of war enacting a state
of siege in certain places outside Of
Japan and blockade.

IMMENSE FLYWREEL BURSTS.
Three Men Dead, Three Fatally and
Six Severely Injured.

Johnstown, Pa, Jan. Pas re-
suit of the breaking of a governor belt
allowing an immense fywheel to rasl
away and burst in the Cambria SteTI
company's No. rail mill, three men
are dead, three are fatally injured and
six are more or less severely hurt.
When Engineer Hishler, who was
standing by his engine, felt the jar of
the immense f1ywheel running wild he
rushed to the steam valve and tried to
stop the engine He was too late,
however, for the explosion of the wheel
was almost instantaneous Flying
pieces. of metal broke steampipes and
released the scalding vapor. Redhot
pieces of metal were hurled against
the wooden walls and roof, setting
them on fire. At the same time water
pipes were broken, flooding the floors
to depth of couple of feet, making
escape difficult for the injured. When
the fire had been extinguished the
search for the dead and injured began
and it is believed that all have been
recovered, though at first many more
injured.
In clearing away the debris during
the forenoon WOrkmen found two more
bodies. One of them lay near the
boiler and the flesh was hanging from
the body in shreds. All the killed and
injured were foreign laborers. Moth
ing but the walls of the mill are stand
ing and they are full of dents made
by the pieces of the flying wheel. The
property loss will be $4,000 to $4,000.

LOSS OF THREE MILLIONS.
Steel Trusts Plant at Shelby, O., Par.
TALLY Destroyed.

Shelby, O., Jan. 22.-The United
States Steel corporation has sustained
$3,000,O00 loss by fire at the plant of
the Shelby Steel Tube company. The
fire started in one of the smaller rooms
from defective electric wire and
spread to the larger stock rooms, com
pletely destroying all of them. The
product of the entire plant for the
past six months was destroyed within
an hour, consisting of 100000 tons,
making in all 25,0O0,000 feet of fin
ished product, and valued at $3,0O0,00U.
A portion of the ruined product can
be worked over, but it will require
the entire capacity of the plant and
will delay the mills on other orders.
The stock consisted mostly of locomo
tive boiler f1ues and other government
work of various kinds. The fire was
confined to the stock buildings, which
were built at an expense of 100000.
The tubing manufactured by the
Shelby plant was used extensively by
the government for boiler hues in
United States war vessels.

SENT FROM CAR.

San Luis Obispo, CAL, Jan. 22.-
Southern Pacific train No. 9, which
left San Luis Obispo at 10:40 p. m.
for San Francisco, was robbed of the
express safe at Questa Grade, about
six miles northeast of this city.

express car. had reason to leave the
car west of tunnel No. and, return
ing later, found the door burst open

was in one of the express cars of the
second section that the robbery oc-
Cured. The express messenger, T.
Sullivan, had two cars to look after
and shortly after the train left San
Luis Obispo, while nearing San Mar
Qlierete, he discovered the loss OF the
safe He had been working in the
forward express car and as soon as he
went to the rear he made the astound-
ing discovery that the safe had been
wrenched from the corner of the car,
where it had been secured by heav,7
steel bars, and carried away. The
messenger Immediately gave the warn
ing, the train was stopped and word
was wired along the line to look out
for the robbers.

city little information regarding the
robbery was obtained. 1t was admit
ted that the safe of Messenger Sulli-
van had been taken during his tenn
porary absence from the car, but re-
garding the details of the affair the
officials were reticent. The report
that the amount taken aggregated
about $4,000 was denied and the
statement made that the contents of
the purloined safe were of little value.

Washington, jan o. President
Roosevelt held hearing at the White
House on the question of approval of
segregation for the Delaware Indians
of 157, 900 acres of land in the Chero-
kee Nation, Indian Territory.
The effort on the part of the Della
ware Indians was to prevent the Sec
retary of the interior from setting
aside the segregation of lands hereto
fore made for the Delaware Indians
and substituting for that segregation
new segregation proposed by the
Dawes commission.
The president, after a brief confer
ence, decided that the old segregation
should stand, as contended for by the
Delawares until the case now pending
in the supreme court of the United
