Paris Jan. On Delcasss Minister Of For

the Riviera. The conviction still prevails at
the Quai dOrsay that the resources of diplomacy
are by no means exhausted, and firm hope
prevails that, in spite Of the pessimistic reports
from ST. Petersburg, Toxic and London. after
all war VIII be averted France has been ex-
erting every possible influence on Russia to
allow Japan a free hand in Corea and to main
tain the open door, in Manchuria. 1t seems
certain that neither Russia nor Japan Will as
sumo the responsibility Of declaring war, and
IT is thought in best informed diplomatic circles
that the outcome OF the present deadlock will
not be war. but treaty between Japan and
Russia Meanwhile, two distinct currents of
public opinion are forming here. Liberal Repub-
hcans ana Socialists sympathze frankly with
Japan. while the Nationalist the Catholic Re
dictionaries, the Bonapartists and the Royalsts
favor Russia; but there is not solitary IN
stance OF q newspaper a prominent man
urging the intervention OF France in behalf
Of Russia. Even should that occasion arise
which is contemplated in the Franco-Russian
treaty the hope Of preserving peace in the Far
East confidently proclaimed in Diplomatic
circles is to-day reflected by the leading bankers
and fnarciers. The Bourse is frmer than it
has been for the last fortnight. There have been
several limitations OF an impending new Rus
sian loan, TO be foated in Paris, but the public
feeling is strongly against lending any further
money to Russia, and the project Of such loan

abandoned.

MESSENGERS QUIT
Owing to Recen. Trouble With the
Adams Express Messengers on the
Central and Cut in Wages, All Of
of the Men Quit Work Sunday.

The trouble which has been brewing
between the Adams Express Company
| messengers on the trains of the Iowa
Central and Route Agent S. A. Wood
ruff. of Oskaioosa, eliminated Sunday,
when all OF the men working on trains
Nos. /, 2, 5 and q,uit work AS re-
suit the night trains were run without
messengers, but this mornings were
supplied temporarily. The trouble was
brought to climax by notification to
the men that their wages would be cut
S. from Sc to SIS. On receipt of this
all of the men sent In their resigna-
tons.
The original trouble was caused by
an order from Route Agent Woodruff,
which instructed the messengers to
transfer the express to and from the
Iowa Central and Burlington trains at
Abba, after the arrival OF the evening
trains there. and before the morning
trains left. The messengers claimed
this would give them but two or three
hours sleep each night they were In
Abba. and no sleep at all during the
busy season. Route Agent Woodruff
was notified by letter signed by ALL
that they would consent TO this ar
rangement provided their pay was in
creased SIS. Instead Of that they were
notified of the cut. O. L. Smith, OF AL
bert Lea, one OF the messengers af-
fected, resigned when the notice of
transfer was first given out. The other
men who quit yesterday Were z. +.

Saturdays Game.

pemoralized more or less by Will
liams being ruled out of the game by
Umpire Swigert for talking back, the
sGraysa lost Saturdays game in the
fastest kind of a contest. On three diff
ferent occasions the "Grays" had men
on third and second, but the badly
wanted hit was not forthcoming. Os-
kaloosa scored in the first, third and
seventh innings. The incident In which
Williams was debarred from playing
occurred In the second inning. Williams
made short bunt and tried to beat the
throw to first. He was declared out.
This so aroused Williams ire that he
shouted, you are big lobster" GO
to the bench" replied Swigert. and as
Williams still continued to argue the
matter the game was stopped until he
left the grounds. Warner called Tay-
Tor in from center field to cover the
third sack and BruggeInan went into
center Hurst pitched good game and
the fielding Of both teams was fast. The
dataiIS Of the score are as follows.
