and sailors, the red species being called
by the former name and the blue spe

among the most quarrelsome of insects
and fight to the death on the least

a CURIOUS PHENOMENON.
The Singular Noises at ankous, on
the Red Sea.


A singular phenomenon occurs on the
borders OF the Red sea at place called
Nakous. where intermittent under.
ground sounds have been heard for an
unknown number OF centuries. Ii is
situated at about half a mile distant
from the shore, whence long reach OF
sanl Iaseends rapldly to a height of 800
feet. This reach is about so feet wide
and resembles an amphitheater, being
walled by low rocks. The sounds com.
ing up from tie ground at this place
reeur at intervals. Of about an hour
They at first resemble a low murmui
but ere long there is heard loud
knocking somewhat Ike the strokes OF
bell and which at thepeAd Of about
live minutes becomes so strong as 10
ngitate the sand.
The explanation Of this curious phe-
nomenon given Ly the Arabs is that
there IS convent under the ground
here, and that these sounds are those
OF the bell which the monks ring for
payers. SO they call it Nakous, which
inaans bell The Arabs affirm that
tie noise so frightens their camels
when they hear 1t as to render them
furious Philosophers attribute the
sound TO suppressed volcanic action
probably to The bubbling of gas or

PEACE ENJOYS CHOSEN.
Marquis Ito and ". Nekndof to
SerUe as Plenipotentiaiaes

Washington June 1G-Russia has indicated
that her mission will be headed by NJ. Nelidoff,
the Russian Ambassador at Paris, and it is un-
derstood that the Mikado has requested Mar
quis Ito to head the japanese mission, although
the President of the Privy Council so far as is
known here, has not finally accepted. Only his
health would cause him to decline, in which
event Field Marshal Yamagata probably would
be selected in his place. Neither country has
suggested the names of the other plenipoten-
tiaries, nor has the number finally been agreed
upon though the belief tonight is that there
will be three on a side.
With Marquis Ito it is believed will come one
OF the other great statesmen of Japan, who has
had wide diplomatic experience, and Mr. Taxa
hira, the japanese Minister, it is suggested here.
may be named the third plenipotentiary. II
the entire mission is selected from Toxic, the
Japanese Minister at Washington undoubtedly
will be designated the ranking advisor of the
mission. The selection of Mr.. Takahira as one
of her plenfpotentiaries would be distinctly ac-
ceptable to the officials here He has frequent
~ been accorded privileges in official circles
usually reserved for Ambassador, and per-
haps diplomat has been oftener received than
he at Secretary Hays home.
Should Mr.. Takahira be placed on the mis-
sion, the chances are NJ. Nelidoff will be ac-
companied by a second plenipotentiary from
Russia, and would be joined in Washington by
Baron Rosen, the new Russian Ambassador.
who will sail for this county on June 2S, and
who, through his two tours of duty at Toxic, is
thoroughly familiar with Asiatic politics: 1t is
said moreover, that with the exception of
General Kuropatkin. few Russians possess the
confidence of the Japanese to a greater degree
than Baron Rosen.
Another important detail which has been the
subject of informal conversation at the White
House is the language to be used at the con-
ference. Russia will ask that the French Ian
guage be used; Japan will express preference
for English, and in recognition of the courtesies
to be extended the plenipotentiares by the
washington government diplomats believe that
the English language, if not accepted the
official language of the conference, will be used
Jointly with the French, the proceedings of the
conference being recorded in both tongues. Had
the conference been held in Europe, French
doubtedly would have been used the ground
that it is there recognized the diplomatic
tongue The United States, however, has never
so recognized 1t. This government insisted on
the use of English in the recent proceedings Of
the Venezuelan at The Hague, though
French was also used by Of the repre-
sentatives.

4 RUSSIAN STATEMENT.
Negotiations MoUing SpeediLy-M
Witte Bitter.

ST Petersburg June 17.-Although in the ap-
sence of official advices the Russian government
is not vet able to announce the dennlte cohciu
eior of arrangements for the meeting Of the Rus
sian and Japanese plenipotentiaries, the Forelsh
Office last night authorized the statement Ihat
negotiations 10 that end were proceeding rapid
" and issued communication for puohcatloh
in this mornings newspapers acQnaintlhg lhe
rublie with the speedy progress toward the
opening of the conference.
Count Cassini's report of the selection OF
washington has not yet been received, but 1t is
thought the Ambassador is waiting for the
fixing of the date of meeting. This viii depend
largely on the travelling arrangements which
MARQUIS Ito and NJ. Nelidoff. Russian Anbas-
sador TO Paris, may be able TO make
The communication of the Foreign Office is
as follows:
According to advices from Washington, i'm
mediately after the receipt of the Russian note
responding TO the proposition OF PRESIDENT
Roosevelt. negotiations as 10 the place ana the
time of meeting began. These negotiations are
proceeding speedily. but are not yet finished
In conversation yesterday NJ. Witte confirmed
the statement that it was utterly impossible for
him to take part in peace negotiations. adding
10 his former reasons that he had been educated
to consider the Japanese an inferior race, ana
would therefore be unable to discuss with them
terms of peace when Russia was not q Vlctof.
Far from having responsibility of conducting
negotiations, said bitterly that he not
even consulted regarding the affairs of his owr
department. NJ. Witte manifested keen feeling
over the rise of General Trepof. Assistant Min
lister Of the Interior, saying:
know nothing Of what is being done either
for peace or for reform. Tell me what Trepoh
advises and l will tell you what the Car viii
do Trepoff is the real ruler Of Russia.
It is probable that successor to Grand Duke
Alexis, who resigned office high admiral on
Thursday. will be appointed, and that the af-
fairs Of his department will be intrusted to a
responsible ministry like that OF the War Office
Both departments viii come under the proposed
Committee OF National Defence which will be
headed by one of the grand dukes or by the
Emperor personally.

ADVICE OF THE KAISER TO THE CzAR
Alleged Tenor of Letter Sent from Berlin to
st. Petersburg.

Berlin, June 16.-A writer in "Die Grenz-
boten," who is in a position to official
sources of information, reproduces the tenor Of
a letter which the Emperor OF Germany is said
to have written to the Emperor of Russia, coun-
selling peace.
According to the writer, Emperor William ad-
vised Emperor Nicholas to consider the ques-
ton whether his officers, apart from the willing
ness Of the soldery to die for him, were able
to guarantee him victory. If this were not the
case, Emperor Nicholas would perhaps take into
consideration whether the internal problems Of
Russia warranted a continuance of the and
a further heavy sacrifice of human life.
Far from wishing to force advice upon his
friendly neighbor Russia. which would be pos
sible only for a having full informa ton
regarding the country's political and military
affairs Emperor William offered his friendly
services in case Emperor Nicholas considered
that the moment had arrived for availing him
self thereof.

SPLIT IN BRICKLAYERs' UNION.
Locals Dissatisfied at Many Points with In
ternational Body.

Many members of the bricklayers' unions in
this city are dissatisfied with the policy of Pres
ident Bowen of the Brcklayers and Masons' In
ternational Union and it was learned yesterday
that agitation has started among them to seoede
from the international union.
The question has not been officially brought
before the unions but the agitation has been
going along quietly for some time, and is the
outcome of the freproofing resolution passed at
two conventions of the international union BY
this resolution the bricklayers are ordered not
TO refuse TO work on the installation of the fire
proofing brick for any contractor who pays
union wages and conforms to union rules
Though the New-York unions owing to their
trade agreement with the Mason Builders AS

have ignored the order, they have not been dis
ciplined It is held however, that they gain noth-
ing by affliation with the international union
and that if they remain in the international
body 1t will continue trying to enforce Its fire
proofing resolution. The New-York unions have

spite of strong objections, two little girls that

The girls are Esther Periera, thirteen years old,
and her nine-year-old sister, Betsy. They We're

commitment Ludwig Bernstein. superintendent

Jenkins, of the Society for the Prevention Of
Cruelty to Children, that the girls were suffer
ing from eczema and had been sent to RAN
dalrs Island Hospital for treatment. The first
of this month the children were returned to the
Hebrew Sheltering Guardian Society as cured.
but the institution refused to receive them, on
the ground that they were suffering from
trachoma. An investigation followed and a
week ago DR.. Philip Hood and DIR. Cocks signed
a certificate that they were strong and free
from any disease. They were still refused ad-
mission to the institution.
The Chidrens Society was informed that
they were denied admission and that Super
intendent Bernsteins decision was final Pro-
fessor Joseph e. Winters, of the Children's
Society, declared the girls TO be healthy. Su-
perintendent Jenkins then made an affi-
davit, in which he stated that the action Of
Mr. Bernstein made him arrive at the conclu-
sion that the Hebrew Shelterng Society was an
improper guardian for the children In court
Mr.. Bernstein strongly objected to the phrase

out of the affidavit
After hearing both sides of the case Justice
OlInsted declared that if the children were not
taken back into the institution he would COM
nit them to another home, and specify his rea-
for it that the Hebrew society was an i'm
proper guardian. After some discussion Su-
