FEARS OF FOUL PLAY STRONGER.
No Word in Washington of Loomis-Denial
of Trouble with Ellis.

Washington. June 2T.-FTancis Il. Loomis. AS
sstant Secretary of State. has had nothing to
confirm or contradict the rumOr that the body
of his brother. Kent Looms. has been washed
ashore on the French coast. and in spite OF the
energetic efforts of the combined foreign service
OF the State Department not the slightest clew
has yet been obtained with reference TO the
mysterious disappearance. The fact that moth
ing has been heard of the lost man is tending
TO confirm the fears of his family that he was
either drowned or met foul play.
The Assistant Secretary this afternoon took
occasion to deny emphaticaly n number Of re-
ports emanating from Parkersburg. w. Va, the
home Of his brother which stated that the
family of Kent LoOmis had received word from
him some days ago that he was having trouble
with William II. Ellis. with whom he
travelling.
The State Department has had advices Of the
sailing of Mr.. Ellis from France for Diiboutil,
where he begins his overland Journey 10 Abys-
sna's capital, with the commercial treaty which
he is TO deliver to King Menelik. This treaty
was in the luggage of Mr. LOOMS. which was
sent to Paris. Word received that Mr
Ellis had offered to remain on the scene for two
weeks to assist in the search for Mr.. LOomis.
and had offered to have one OF his party return
to Plymouth to aid the authorities there, but Il
was thought that such assistance would not
avail in the search.

RUSSIAN DISSENSIONS.
High officer Tells of Widespread
Decentralization IN 4rmu.

TTentsin, June pa correspondent OF The
Associated Press has seen translation OF
private letter from an officer high in command
under General Kuropatkin TO a brother officer
giving gloomy view OF the situation for Rus
STA. The writer said:
It is a shame to see officers constantly quar-
relling divided into clques and fighting for their
interests. until Japan, the common enemy,
is forgotten. Every one. from the Ficeroy and
Kuropatkin to insignificant subalterns. is quar-
relling and unwilling to obey orders. In the eyes
OF the correspondents and foreign attach we
disgraced.
Until the whole system is changed we cannot
hope for victory. Jealousy and suspicion are
rampant through the army. The members Of
our Secret Service are busy spying each
other that they cannot apprehend the spies and
Japanese agents, who work with impunity,
Japan seemingly knows every plan made by
US. which accounts for many plans having been
changed suddenly. Our brave soldiers go into
battle like sheep to the shambles No one can
denv their loyalty. but until they are properly
Differed their loyalty and zeal wasted.
Europe now knows divided house.
and will profit accordingly. Those who have the
welfare OF Russia at heart cannot help feeling
that II Port Arthur falls. and Japan takes Lao
Yang. the powers Will intervene. to our eternal
disgrace
