Japan Announces Three, and Names
of Two Russians are Known.
st. Petersburg, June l6.-There only
remain fixing of the time of meeting
and the number of plenipotentiaries
for the peace conference with Japan.
Finding that Japan was not disposed to
accept Paris, which was Russia's first
choice, or The Hague, which President
Roosevelt suggested, Russia readily
consented to the selection of Washing
ton. japan, it is understood, also sig
nified that she would name three exalt-
ed personages as plenipotentiaries, and
specific information here points to
Marquis Ito, Baron Komura, the min
istersof foreign affairs, and Marshal
Yamagata, chief of the general staff, as
plenipotentairies.
1t is regarded as certain that two OF
Russia's representative will be Baron
Rosen, who has been appointed to sue
ceed Count Cassini as ambassador at
Washington, and M. Nelidof, ambassa-
dor at Paris. The name of M. Witte
continues to be be mentioned, but there
is no evidence that the emperor will
give him a brief to conduct negotia-
tions. Considering his we'll known
views against Russia's aggressive policy
in the Far East, the selection OF M.
Witte would be regarded as tantamount
to an assurance that peace would be
| the outcomhe.
The selection of Washington makes
it certain that several weeks must
elapse before the first meeting of the
negotiators is possible.

FRANCE SAVED FROM WAR.
.DeIcasse's Resignation Prevented .
Conflict with Germany.


Conflict with Germany.
Paris, June 17.-When M. Delcasse
resigned the portfolio of the foreign
office few days ago, Germany and
France were on the verge of war. NJ.
Delcasse thought that Germany was
bluffng. Prime Minister Rouvier, re-
membering 1870, believed otherwise.
Germany had been for some weeks
strengthening her garrisons near the
French frontier. France responded
with similar move. The kaiser, ig-
noring his own provocation, notified
France that, if she did not cease this
military movement, Germany would
consider it an unfriendly act. This, OF
course, was equivalent to an ultima
tum, and M. Rouvier sent a concilia-
tory reply.
Within few hours after M. Del.
casse's retirement, M. Rouvier made
certain representations to Russia
which had far greater influence upon
the czar's present course than even
Mr.. Roosevelt's letter. M. Delcasse
had done everything in his power to
support the Russian policy and uphold
the alliance, and had refrained from
pressing advice, peaceful or otherwise,
on the czar's government.
M. Rouvier said to Russia, in effect,
that the vital interests of France re-
equired the czar to do something under
the terms of the alliance for her pro-
lection against German aggression
1t was imperative that Russia restore
her military strength on her western
frontier and be prepared to take an
active part in the campaign if France
were attacked.

LEAD WORKS
INSPECTED.
Arrangements Being Made 10
Use theCreOSOte Dock for
Shipping.

Officials Of the American Smelling
aud Refining Company inspected the
local plant yesterday and also visited
the lead works being erected inst
south of the big smelter. The lead
works is run under the name of the
United Lead Company, but it is con-
trolled entirely by the smelter trust,
of which the Guggenheims are at the
head.
. The visit of the New York officials
here was partly in connection with
the erection of a dock for the lead
works. Ii has been decided to put the
do OK, used for the old creosote works,
in repair and this afternoon a pile
driver started driving piling for the
construction of a t%restle across the
strip of meadow which separates the
lead works from the creosoto dock
1t is understood that the officials
have decided to erect another large
building for the making of lead pipe.
The following clipping from a New
York paper is Of interest to Perth An.
boy:
Negotiations are said TO have been
resumed for n merger Of The National
Lead Company with the American
Smelling & Refining Company
The National Lead ComDany
has n large plant in Brooklyn
and som months ago the Ameri,
can Smelling & Ref ing Company,
it is said, tried to force a merger, but
allied, but this time, it is thought,
they will be successful as the induce.
ments offered are such that tho Ma
tional Lead people cannot hardly re
fuse.
If the agreement Is reached with the
refining company, the lead plant here
will ne operated as the largest in the
country, it is said. Besides the pres7n
buildings now being put up, the re-
ining company wonld erect many
others.
The reason tie American Smelling
& Refining company is so anxious for
a merger is because they are large
refiners of lead at tho local plant, in
fact, they have the largest lead refn-
ing plant in the world, and with the
National Lead in their control, they
could practically control the market.
Before the week is over it is ex-
pected that q merger will haze taken
place.
