BISHOP HUNTINGTON DEAD
PASSED AWAY At sUMMERHoME
IN HADLEY, MASS.

Death Came Peacefully and Found the
Venerable Clergyman in the Room
Where He was Born Eighty-aye
Years Ago-wife and Daughters at
His Bedside.
Hadley, Mass. July 11.-Rt. Rev.
Frederick Dan Huntington, Episcopal
bishop of the central diocese of New
York, died at his summer home here
this afternoon. Death came peacefully
at 4:S0 o'clock and found the vnerable
clergyman in the room where he was
born eighty-three years ago. The end
was not unexpected, as the bishop had
been in failing health for several
months from a complication of diseases
which old age denied him the strength
to successfully combat. Two weeks ago
there was a decided change for the
worse. and yesterday the patient was
seized with congestive chills. His phy-
sicians then announced that death was
imminent.
At the bedside at the moment of dis
solution were present the bishops wife,
formerly Miss Hannah Sargent of Bos-
ton. and their three daughters, Mrs.
Archibald L. Sessions of Northampton,
and the Misses Mary L. and Aria 5,
Huntington of Syracuse. N. Y. OF the
two sons. Rev. George P. Huntington.
ID. d., professor of Hebrew at Dart
mouth college. is i'll at his home in
Hanover, N. H., and Rev. Father James
o. S. Huntington, superior of the Or
der of the Holy Cross, who is stationed
at the Episcopal monastery at West
park, N. Y, was not able to reach here
before death ensued.
Following the wishes of the bishop,
as expressed during his last illness, the
funeral services will be characterized
by simplicity. There will be a service
at the old farm house at which only
members of the immediate family and
intimate friends will be present, at s
O'Clock Thursday afternoon. Rt, Rev.
| Charles Tyler Olmstead Of Utica, N. Y,
Bishop Huntington's coadjutor and sue
| cessor, will officiate. The internent will
be made in the family burying ground
at s O'Clock The brief service at the
grave will be public.
Bishop Huntington came here from
his home in Syracuse, N. Y; on June
I2O, to spend. as was his custom, the
warmer months at the farm where he
was born and married. The day after
he arrived he attended the commence
ment exercises at Smith college at
Northampton and offered the prayer.
This was his last public appearance.
his rapid decline dating from a few
days later.

KAISER,s MESSAGE ExPLAINED
THAI, to Russian Regiment Upheld by
Precedent.

Berlin July 1.-THE semi-ofiicial
newspapers deny that any political
character attaches to the telegram sent
BY Emperor William to the colonel of
the Wiborg (Finlandl regiment, Of
Which his majesty is honorary colonel
in-chief, in which he congratulated the
regiment on the prospect Of meeting
the japanese, adding that he was proud
it would have the honor Of fighting for
its emperor, the Fatherland and the
fame of the Russian army, concluding
with the expression Of his sincere
wishes for the regiment and with d
prayer that God might bless its stand
ards. The papers recall a similar mes
of British dragons, of which he was
honorary colonel. before its departure
for South Africa during the Boer war,
and point to the fact that his majesty
at the spring parade at Potsdan ex~
pressed to the Japanese military at
tache his admiration for the bravery Of
the Japanese troops.
They say that the message was pure
ly a courtly and military one from a
soldiers point of view that the greatest
honor regiment can have is to be sent
to the front. The concluding prayer
was merely for the welfare Of the WI
borg soldiers and the expression Of sim
.cere wishes was only a desire that they
should add to their laurels as q regi-
ment.
The deduction from the message by a
section of the st. Petersburg public,
these papers say, that the enperors
telegram presages German alliance
cannot be shared by the Russian gov
ernment, which we'll knows that this
would be no advantage, since Russia
has more troops than she can forward
to or employ at the seat of war. and
they point out that a breach of neutral-
#ity on the part of Germany would give
the signal for universal war.
The opposition papers content thern-
selves by saying that the zeal OF the
semi official press is doubtless due to
the unavoidable impression created by
the emperors telegram, declaring that
Russian mourning would be German
mourning.

SHIPPING RATE WAR.
Belief That Negotiations Are Progress-
ing in Writing.

London, July 11.-Whi1e there was no
meeting to-day owing to the absence of
Lord Inverclyde and others, there is
every reason to believe that the matter
is progressing by means of written
communications and that further and
perhaps final meeting will be held with
in the next few days. The principals
to the conference declined to give out
any definite Information until some
conclusion shall have been arrived at.
It was stated in the lobby OF the
house Of commons late tonight that
the conterees are hopeful of success
full outcome OF their deliberations,
though the possibility of failure is rec
ognized because the difference are ex-
tremely difficult to reconcile and be-
cause the parties concerned are not yet
likely to yield certain points.
The fact that there was no meeting
to-day gave rise to a runor that the
conference had broken up and that no
agreement was possible but so far as
can be learned tonight there is no
foundation for this runor.

1MPoRTANrR REFoRM IN RUSSIA.
Political Prisoners Hereafter to Have
Trial by Court.

st. Petersburg. July 1.-THE system
of condemnfng political prisoners by
administrative order has been abolish
ed by imperial decree, and persons ac-
cused Of political crimes henceforth
will be tried by the courts under the
regular procedure. This reform is most
far-reaching, ending forever the arbi-
trary condemnation to exile, or even
death, of political suspects without the
intervention Of the courts. It is con-
sidered to be one Of the most sweeping
reforms of this generation, and it is un-
derstood that it was recommended by
the council of the empire, with the ac-
quiescence and approval Of the minis
ter of the interior.
