Although Russia Expects The Delay
Will Be Brlsi.
TOXIC IS SAYING NOTHING.
Duties Will be Merely to Receive Jap
ese Proposals and Forward to His
Government-Nothing Definite Un-
til After Meeting. ~

st. Petersburg, June 13.-Russia Is
waiting for Japan to fix the time and
the place when and where the Japan
ese terms will be placed in the hands
of Russian representatives. The
foreign Office expects that the delay
will be brief.
| The emperor's government would
prefer that Paris should be the scene
of the initial step, but 1t is explained
to the Associated Press that neither
the place nor the personality of the
Russian representatives matters
greatly. The Russian representative
will not be plenipotentiary with full
power to negotiate. His duty will
practically be confined to the recep-
tion and transmission to his govern
ment of the Japanese terms for de-
cision as to whether they afford a
basis for actual peace negotiations.
He will be clothed with power to ef-
feet an agreement for the suspension
of hostilities, which suspension will
probably be for very limited period,
during which Russia must decide the
momentous question of peace or a
prolongation of the war. During this
temporary armistice, both countries
probably will be free to continue the
movement of troops and munitions Of
war within prescribed limits, although
nothing definite on this point will be
known until the meeting takes place.
If Russia finds the terms for a
basis one upon which negotiations
tan proceed, regular plenipotentiaries
will be appointed, the number being
decided by the belligerents them
selves, and then it is not impossible
that the negotiations might be trans
ferred to Manchuria, as President
Roosevelt is believed to have suggest
ed.
1t is stated at the foreign Office that
the question of plenipotentiaries has
not yet been officially considered, but
1t is regarded as almost certain that
Baron Rosen, the ambassador to the
United States, on account of his long
and intimate acquaintance with Far
Eastern affairs, besides his familiar
ity with Japanese, will be selected.
George De Staal, who preceded
Count Benkendorff as Russian am.
bassador at London, and who was
president of the peace conference at
The Hague in 1892 might be another,
although his advanced age and the
fact that he has been for some years
out of touch with active diplomacy,
might initiate against him. The
number of plenipotentiaries would be
matter Of mutual agreement, though
Russian precedents lean to two.

Rejected candIdates.

1t is reported that at recent ex.
animation of candidates for admission
to the Naval academy at Annapolis
only eleven out Of twenty-five were
found sufficiently sound physically to
be admitted. The whole twenty-five
passed the mental examination, but
fourteen Of them we're unable to pre-
sent the necessary physical require
mnts. This fact is a fair index Of the
rate at which the physical decadence
OF the American people Is progress
ing. insanity, idiocy and epilepsy are
all increasing at a very rapid rate
three hundred per cent within the past
fifty years.

"Fashion" Notes.

Don't wear thin-soled shoes at any
season Of the year. One may take
cold from chilling Of the feet as the
result of wearing thin-soled shoes in
walking over cold pavement, even
when the pavement is perfectly dry.
| Don't adjust the clothing to suit the
season of the year only, but adapt it
ito the weather conditions of each par
Sticular day.
( Don't wear high-heeled shoes, nor
pointed shoes, nor narrow-soled shoes,
nor tight shoes, nor low shoes. Don't
wear slippers, except in the house.
Shoes must have broad, reasonably
thick soles, plenty Of room for the
toes, low heels. Rubber heels are a
great comfort.
Don't support the clothing by bands
tight about the waist.
Don't construct the limbs by means
of elastic bands to support the stock
ings. Support all clothing from the
shoulders, not by bands, but by q
properly constructed waist free from
bones, on the union" plan.

chanoed It's Mind.

As mamma was preparing her boy
for breakfast she said: "How many
cakes can Eugene eat for his break
fast this morning?"
'T can eat four, Mamma"
Seated at the table, his appetite
seemed to have materially diminished,
for he ate only one of the cakes.
Mamma thought you were going to
eat four cakes this morning. What is
the matter?"
WELL" said the five-year-old, my
stomach changed its mind"
It occurs to us that the wise mans
stomach often changes its mind" as
in this case, but too often that much
abused organ is so pressed upon as to
be convinced against its will, though
Of the same opinion still, and, yield
ing to the demands Of an abnormal
appetite, finds itself wishing the real
man had been master over the lust Of
the flesh.

RAILROAD RATE LEcIsLATIoN.,

:" Y
Testifying before the Senate Conn
mittee at Washington, Interstate
Commerce, Commissioner Prouty said
in discussing the proposition to give
to that Commission the power to regu-
late railway rates:
y think the railways should make
their own rates. | think they should
be allowed to develop their own bust
ness. l have never advocated any
law, and | am not now In favor Of
any law, which would put the rate
making power into the hands of any
commission or any court. While 1t
may be necessary to do that some
time, while that is done In some
states at the present time, while 1t Is
done in some countries, am opposed
to 1t. The railway rate Is
property. It Is all the property that
the railway has got The rest of its
property is not good for anything un-
less 1t can charge rate. Now 1t has
always seemed to me that when a
rate was fixed. II that rate was an un-
reasonable rate, 1t deprives the rail-
road company Of its property pro
tanto. 1t is not necessary that you
should conflscate the property Of a
railroad; 1t is not necessary that you
should say that 1t shall not earn three
per cent or four per cent. When
you put in a rate that is inherently
unreasonable, you have deprived that
company of its rights, of its property,
and the Circuit Court Of the United
States has jurisdiction under the four
teenth amendment to restrain that
have looked at these cases
great many times, and can only
come to the conclusion that rail.
road company is entitled to charge
fair and reasonable rate, and If any
order Of commission, If any statute
of state legislature takes away that
rate, the fourteenth amendment pro-
tects the railway company"

MONT PELEE ACTIVE AGAIN.
Nothing of an Alarming Nature So
Far, However.

Fort lie France, Island of Martini
que, June 14.-For the past few days
Mont Pelee has manifested recrude-
scence of activity which, while strong
er than that of the month of April, of
the present year, does not seem to be
of an alarming nature. Some dense
clouds of smoke have been discharg.
ed from the volcano and have slowly
fallen over the White river valley, af
terward disappearing on arrival at the
seacoast. Sharp luminous flashes
have been perceived at the dome of
the mountain, and fairly strong
burst Of flame was seen June 3 be-
tween lao and 2:10 p. m. On that
occasion very thick cloud of smoke
almost descended to the sea- and the
cinders thrown up extended over the
village of lie Precheur, which is on
the extreme line forming the limit of
the territory devastated during the
terrible outbreak Of May, 1902 ire
sulting in the loss of about 10000
lives), and then crept seaward and
disappeared. After this the volcano
became calm and remained so until
the night of June 10-11, during which
the dome was illuminated by numer-
GUS luminous points. The collapse of
part of the dome occurred yesterday
morning at 6 o'clock. 1t was accom-
panied by an outflow of mud into the
White river valley. At 1880 a. m.
the same morning a dense cloud Of
smoke slowly arose from the crater
to the estimated height Of about 1000
yards and extended toward LIE
Precheur, where the smoke was dissi-
pated. Since then the volcano has re
mained calm.

Since the attention of the Chicago
authorities was so forcibly called to
the conditions present in the peniten-
tiary other states have been investi-
eating.
The rapid growth of tuberculosis
among prisoners In the Joliet, ILL.,, PEN
itentiary, attended by a marked in
crease in the prison death rate, has
aroused the officials to action. An In
vestigation and reform is to be insti-
tuted by the State Board Of Health.
The members Of this board do not
deny that under the present conditions
all efforts to combat the disease are
hopeless. Better general sanitary con-
ditions must be established or 1t will
be impossible to prevent the spread Of
tuberculosis to all the present prison
ers and to all who may be SO unfortu-
nate as to be sentenced later.
This is another instance Of the state
forcing its citizens to live under con-
ditions which mean almost sure death.
It Is surprising in this day of enlight-
eminent that the state should allow its
citizens to live, voluntarily, in unsani-
tary homes. Yet 1t does. The resi-
dents Of the slum and; tenement dis
tricts are dying from faulty santa
tion and bad hygiene. But more the
state forces some others to spend
from one to ten years in dark cell
from which they so often come, strick-
en- by the great white plague
wrecks Of their former selves and a
continual expense to the community.
With the message Of prevention
and cure" Of consumption in every
paper let the state not forget its pris-
oners who must silently suffer what
ever fate is decreed for them.

chIooga Team Owners 10 Keep Out Of
Strike Trouble.
EIGHT THOUSAND MEN AT WORK,
Peace Negotiations In Teamsters'
Strike Abandoned--Desre Of Labor
Leaders to Hold National organi
zatlon Responsible.

CnlCagO, June l3. - Inc CnlcaBO
Team Owners Association, an organi-
cation employing 5000 union team
sters, has decided to remain neutral in
the present labor struggle now in
progress in Chicago. Ever since Che
commencement of the teamsters'
strike the Team Owners Association
has been anxious to have the question
Of making deliveries to strike-bound
houses submitted to arbitration. The
teamsters by a unanimous vote refus-
ed to agree to the proposition, and for
time 1t was believed that the team
owners would force strike of these
5000 drivers by ordering them to
make deliveries to firms involved in
the strike.
In an effort to learn the sentiment
of the members of the association re-
garding the matter it was decided to
take a referendum vote on the ques-
tion. This vote was completed today
and resulted in 155 Of the members
voting to remain neutral during the
trouble and in three members voting
to compel the teamsters to obey or
ders. The decision reached by the
owners means that there will be no
strike. of these men, and the threaten
ed expansion of the trouble in this
direction has been averted.
The Team Owners Association will
hold meeting tomorrow night, when
an official announcement of the re.
suit of the referendum vote will be
made.
Negotiations for peace, which prom
ised for time last week to be sue.
cessful, have apparently been aband-
oned for the present at least, as both
sides are so far apart on any plans of
settlement by mediation that further
efforts in this direction are believed
to be futile.
The employers declare that they
have conceded every point possible.
The strikers assert that a settlement
along the lines proposed by the en-
ployers would mean "dshonorable
surrender" and this the officials of
the teamsters' union emphatically de-
clare they will never do.
One of the causes of the prolonga-
tion of the present strike is said to
be the political ambitions of several
Chicago union leaders. At least three
of the Chicago labor leaders desire
to be president of the national organi
zation Of the teamsters.
President Shea is also desirous of
reelection, and these four men, it is
asserted, have been making every ef
fort possible to control the Chicago
delegates to the next convention,
which will be held in Philadelphia
August 7. Seven Of the local unions
elected delegates to the convention
today. OF these delegates three were
instructed for Shea and the other
four we're uninstructed.
With the election of these delegates
out of the way, 1t was said by labor
leader tonight that the union leaders
would get together and bring about
settlement of the strike. When ask
ed in regard to this matter tonight
President Shea declared that there
was no truth in the story, and that
all the union men were perfectly sat
isfled with the way in which he has
managed the strike.
There will be no settlement Of the
strike" said Shea, until the employ
ers show some disposition to offer us
