Among the Fall River
Cotton Mill Operatives.
Textile Council Decides to Re-
quest Conference with Owners.
Claim Something Must Be Done Owners
Say Cannot Raise Wages.

Fall River. Mass, June 7.-Intercst in
the mill situation here has been re-
newed by Il decision of the Fall River
Textile Council to request Il conference
with the manufacturers. The members
of the council assert that there is wide
spread dissatisfaction among the oper-
atives and claim that the shortage of
help at most of the mills, is due to the
present rate of wages and other I'M
settled conditions.
While they nave accepted the deci-
sion of Gov. Douglas, who was mutual
ly agreed upon as arbitrator in regard
to the wage margin up 10 April /. they
say that market conditions have i'm
proved since that period and that they
would be able to show the existence of
this condition if they are granted &;
conference with tho representatives of
the Manufacturers Association
On the other hand the mill trcasurers
say that the shortage of help is due to
the continued agitation of the opera
tives and the fears of another strike
which has been discussed more or less
iii some quarters since work WaS re-
Sumcd at the beginning of the year.
1t is this fear of another period of eX-
tended idlcnosS. say the manufacturers.
that makes many of the operatives who
left here during the strike. last year,
averse to returning and which has also
caused the departure Of many of the
help during the last few years.
The mil men do not deny that mill
market conditions have improved of
late. but they do not admit that there
has hecn Improvement enough to war
rant an advance i'll wages.

Feeling That Peace Move
Is Gaining Ground.
Presidents Tender Of Good
Offices Goes to Emperor.
Interest Now Centers in Message 10 Prssl-
ident Through cassini.

Washington, June ..-Preliminary
peace negotiations between Russia and
japan are generally believed to be I'M
der way and it is conceded that Presi-
dent Roosevelt Will in all probability
act not as a mediator, but as 1.-The
friendly channel Of communication"
There is as yet no official admission
that Russia has accepted what Count
Cassini in his cablegram to Coun.
Lamsdorff, last week, described as ''the
offer of good will Of the President"
although instructions to the ambassa-
dor are believed to have reached here,
tonight, in a long cablegram which
reached the Russian embassy quite
late and was laid before the ambassa-
dor after he had started to retire. At
ter reading the dispatch, the ambassa-
dor retired for the night at an hour
earlier than usual. All that can be au-
thOritatively said regarding this cable
gram is that it concerned Count Cas-
sinrs cablegram of last week.
Immediately upon his return to his
legation, tonight. after long confer
ence with the President, Mr.. Takahira.
the Japanese minister, tegan the pre-
paratiOn of a dispatch to his govern
Inent upon which ne was occupied un-
til quite late. For the first time since
the humiliation Of the Russian fleet,
the minister did not feel at liberty to
comment upon any phase Of the situa-
ton.
THE situation is too delicate at this
moment for me to say anything" he
remarked when there is something
definite perhaps ! may have some
thing to say. But I don't expect any
thing definite for some Gays"
1t can be stated that the President.
through Mr.. Takahira, is endeavoring
to get some definite idea regarding
Japan's peace terms. Mr. Takahira is
giving him all the assistance that he
can but the most he can do is to in
form his government Of the Presidents
wishes and to emphasize his personal
conviction that the President can be
trusted absolutely to guard Japans
legitimate interests. Indeed, fortu-
nate phase of the present situation is
that both Mr.. Takahirl and Count
.,assini are personally convinced of the
Presidents absolute impartiality and
sincerity of purpose in the delicate I'M
dertaking which he has snouldered.
At the White House up to late
hour, it was declared that the impor-
tant cabiegram from Mr.. Meyer had
vet reached the President.

The dissolution of the union between
Sweden and Norway has been pending
for some time past and had its growth
in the desire which grew stronger as
time passed for the establishment of
separate consular systems for the two
countries. King Oscar recently vetoed
the measure presented to him by the
council Of state providing for separate
consular representation and the Nor
wcgians claimed that The king by SO
doing and apparently by his absence
from Norway had suspended his rights
and duties as king of Norway.
1t was announced from London.

correspondent of the TirleS had tele-
graphed TO his paper that he believed
he had good authority for saying that

that no forciblc measures would be

Rochester, N. T., Aug. 7.-The Fife designed thirty foot yacht Temeraire. on which the Royal Canadian Yacht club of Toronto pins it's faith to carry the canadian's cup back to it's old place across the lake. arrived at ohariotte last night under tow Of Commodore Nichols steam yacht. ITanquilo. The Tranquilo and Tenn eraire left Toronto on Saturday af- ternoon going across the lake to Fort Niagara, where they tied up for the night. Sunday morning the boats re- stunned the cruise and after stop of several hours at Olcott beach reached Charlotte after nightfall. In the rath- CT uncertain light 1t was difficult to get true line on the Canadian racer. but her sharp lines inspired the crowd with enthusiasm and not a llttle dread. She seems to have less free board than the Iroguois and a more pronounced tumble home. She has bowsprit of about the same length as the local boat, her bow is sharp. with a graceful curve. Her cabin trunk Is low and very short. curved forward.
 E. K. NJ. Wedd, skipper of tho Temeraire, was at the stick. and on board were the members of his racing crew
 Mir Fife, designer of the boat. did not make the trip across with Skip per Wedd, but arrived on the Kings ton last night and immediately came to Rochester. The Temeraire may sail around the club course to-day to accustom the skipper and crew tO conditions and on Thursday or Friday she will haul out for a final scraping before the first race next Saturday.
