 Unique and Without Parallel.
 Paris, July 6.-In the presence of tbe highest dignitaries of France, the dip. lomatic representatives of many foreign governments and civil and naval off. cials of the United States the body oi Admiral John Paul Jones was to-day formally delivered to the United States government. The ceremony was one combining impressive dignity with miIf- tary and naval pomp in which the sol diers and sailors of France and the sailors of America united in rendering honors to the illustrious founder of the American navy.
 
 ably without parallel as the funeral was that of revolutionary hero whose body had lain neglected in a foreign grave for over a hundred years.
 Seldom has an event awakened such widespread interest in the French cap- ital. Dense throngs packed the Champs Elysees and other principal thorough fares to witness the imposing cortege which for the elaborateness of its mili- tary feature equalled the martial dis play on the occasion of the visit oi King Alfonso.
 The ceremony of delivering the body was held in the American church on the Avenue De L'Alma at 3:30 o'clock in the afternoon. The interior of this Gothic edifice was beautifully decorated with plants and flowers. At the foot of the chancel rested the casket wound in an American flag and literally buried in masses of floral emblems. The French government had taken charge of the arrangements and Huissiers of the foreign office, wearing impressive silver chains, acted as ushers.
 At the right of the altar sat Ambas- |sador MICormick, Senior Special Am bassador Porter, Junior Special Ann bassador Loonis, United States Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, Rear Admiral Sigs- bee and other officers of the American squadron. Across the atsfe sat Premier Rouvier with other members of his cabinet, practically, the enire diplomatic and officers of the army and navy. The members of the diplomatic corps were in full uniform making a brilliant ap-

Charges Them With Re-EstabIIshment
 os Peace on Durable Basis.
 Tokio, July 6.-The emperor delivered an address to-day to the peace plenipo- tentiaries as follows:
 The president of the United States being grieved to find that the war be- tween Japan and Russia had not been brought to close after the lapse of more than a year, and being impressed with the urgent need in the interest of peace and humanity, of terminating the conflict, has suggested that the two governments appoint plenipotentiaries and cause them to meet together to ne- gotiate peace.
 We were compelled contrary to our expectations. to resort to arms, despite our constant abiding wish for peace, and if, in consequence of the concilia- tory spirit of our opponent, hostilities could be brought to an end, nothing would be more satisfactory than such consummation.
 Accordingly, we at once accept the suggestion of the president of the United States and we hereby charge you with the mission of negotiating and concluding peace. You should de- vote yourselves with all of your power to discharge your mission and make every effort to secure the re-establish- ment of peace on a durable basis.''

 Hartford, July 6.-The house by a vote of 1O5 to 99 rejected the bill which would allow independent telephone companies to do business in this state.

 Immediately after this action was taken.

 Seven cars were burned by a fire whicil broke out immediately after the wreck,
 presumably caused by the explosion of a gas tank under the smoking cor. The officials of the road report that thera was no spreading of the rails, and they are unable to account for"tlhe accident. Most of those injured suffered from burns, the flames spreading so rapidly that many were scorched before they could be removed from the wreckage. All of the injured were able to resume their journey to-day, except H. Strick- CT, of Boise City Idaho, who is report ed to be in a critical condition.

PERIOD OF RATE SLASHING.
Expected by Railroads in BOston- Chi cagO Passenger Business.

Boston, July 6.-Railroad officials here expect a period of rate slashing in the passenger business between Chtca- go and Boston, as the result of the re- cent reduction of the fare between the cities named, from $22 to $19 by the New York Central lines.
 This differential rate over the New York Central system does not apply to West bound traffic. The new rate was fixed by an arbitration board which was appointed because of the failure of the Michigan Central and other roads to agree. The Grand Trunk and Wa bash roads are said to be opposing the new rate.
 Vice President Edgar. Won Etten of the New York Central lines said to- night:
 "I have been contending for a differ ential via the Michigan Central for years, and it is extremely gratifying to me that the road has now been placed in a position where 1t can command some of the business which has been moving by other differential lines, and which were in direct competition with the Central"

NOTHING HEARD YET.
St. Petersburg Had Received No News From Theodosia Up to This A. M.

From TheOdosia Up to This A. M.
 St. Petersburg, July 7-3:30 a. m.-Up to o'clock this morning no report had been received from Theodosia of the arrival there of the squadron from Se- bastopol and it was not known wheth- CT an encounter with the KniaZ Potem- kine had taken place or whether the battleship had executed it's threat to lombard the city last night unless fur nished with the supply of coal demand ed.
 The latest dispatches from Theodosia received here, timed 4:30 o'clock yester- day afternoon, reported that the Kniaz Potemkine was cruising off shore in sight of the town, but it is possible she may have left that vicinity before the arrival of the squadron.
 A press dispatch from SebastopoI gives rumor that the Kniaz Potem- kline went seaward late yesterday aft ernoon. If the squadron arrived before her departure either the surrender of the battleship or a battle is regarded as certain, as Admiral Chouknin, it is be- lieved, would not have dispatched his ships in search of the mutinous vessels unless sure that there would be no rep etition of the Odessa fiasco.
 Rumors of the most diverse nature are in circulation, one of which is that two torpedo boats attacked the Kniaz Potemkine and were sunk by her.
 The cruiser Chernomoretz, which was due at Sebastopol Monday, and for which considerable anxiety was felt, has arrived at Yalta, on the south coast of the Crimea.
 ~ Advices received by Minister of the Interior Bouligan report a serious anti Semitic agitation in the governments of Ekaterinoslav and Kherson.

 Odessa, July 6.-11:59 p. m.-It is re- ported that the battleship Knlaz Po- temkine has been blown up near Iheo- dosia.
 London, July 7.-The correspondent of the Daily Mail at Odessa says 1t is reported thsre that the Kniaz Potem- Kline is bombarding Theodosia, that the town is burning and that the SOL diers of the garrison are engaged i'll looting. He says it is also reported that another torpedo boat has joined the nutineers.
 St. Petersburg, July 6.-7:45 p. m.- The Black sea fleet has gone to Theodo- sia according to advices received by the admiralty late this afternoon. Ad- rairal Chouknin's warships left Sebas- topoI for Theodosia at about noon to- day and should arrive there early this evening. The results awaited with the most intense anxiety.
 Dispatches received from the govern or of Simferopol, who is executing the decree of martial law at Theodosia, say that about half of the Kniaz Po- temkines crew desire to surrender, but they are prevented from surrender ing by the revolutionists.
 There were only six companies of troops at Theodosia yesterday, but re- Inducements of infantry and artillery have been dispatched from Sebastopol and probably reached there to-day.
 It transpires that the torpedo boat which accompanied the Kniaz Potem- kline was lowed all the way from Kus- tenji to Theodosia, and was not sunk as. was supposed. An official report from General Kahanoff, the military governor of Odessa, declares that there has been the widest exaggeration re- garding the number of casualties re- suiting from the rioting at Odessa. He gives the following figures: Of the sfaais sf0rtsysffsf4a were killed and seventy four were wounded; of the police and troops one man was killed and twen- ty were wounded.

New York, July 6.-The first electric car to pass under Harlem river, in the new subway from the Bronx to Man hattan Island, was run to-day. A small party of officials was aboard. On Monday regular passenger traffic will begin.
 The new tunnel is an engineering Oddity, because, instead of being bored under the river, it was built outside the water and lowered into place by sec- ,tions. There is a separate tube for cars running in each direction. The two tubes are each about twelve feet in di- ameter, and were separated to afford greater stability.

READING OF BIBLE IN SCHOOLS
Denounced at Conference of American
 RabbIs in Cleveland.


 Cleveland, July 6-The reading of the Bible in the public school was denounc- led in the report of the committee on .sectarianism of the Central Conference of American Rabbis. which closed here to-day. The report as adopted contains the following:
 The place of the Bible is in the home, the church and the church scool. To force it into the public educational inc stitutions is not merely to suggest that these three agencies are powerless to effect the desired results, but it is like wise to interfere with the growth of a finer and larger human brotherhood. It has created ill-feeling between Cath ollie and Protestant, and has caused both to look down upon the Jew"
