Toxic. Oct. 1e.-Baron Komura ar
rived here today from Vancouver. His
reception at the railway station was
not enthusiastic, those present being
principally government dignitaries.
The streets were strongly guarded by
troops. The baron drove to the palace
in the imperial carriage. The peace
treaty with Russia went into effect
Yesterday The text was printed In
the afternoon papers. The minister OF
war has issued an order instructing the
army In the field to abstain from critt-
cising the terms OF peace, on the
grounds that the declaration of peace
and Of war are entirely the outcome of
sovereign power.
The emperor showed. exceptional
honor to Komura by dispatching to
Yokohama, where he landed from the
Empress Of India, Colonel Inouye, his
majesty's aide -de-camp, who went
alongside the steamer in dispatch
boat and brought Komura ashore.
While the baron was on his way to
Toxic by train, Colonel Inouye con-
stantly kept at Komura's side. and on

FOUND NUDE ON TOP OF CAR

New York, Oct. 16.-Dr. Arthur ST.
Clair kundsen, a member of the Har-
ward and City Clubs and socially Well
known In this city, was found early
yesterday without his clothing on top
of a car Of freight train on the New
York Central railroad this side of the
city limits Of Yonkers.
Kundsen was taken Immediately to
st. Joseph hospital, as he was suffer-
ing from exposure and was in a critl-
cal condition.a All the information the
physicians could secure from him was
that the last thing he remembered he
was riding In cab in Broadway. He
said he had just returned from a trip
to Japan.
About the same time that the physi-
clan was picked up a policeman found
clothing said to be Kundsen's lying on
the grass alongside the speedway
under, the Washington bridge He
gathered it up hastily and took 1t to
the station house. At first 1t was
thought that the owner Of the cloth
ing had committed suicide by jumping
from the bridge, and the sergeant so
reported to police headquarters. but
later communication from the hospi-
tai established the connection between
the finding of the. man on the freight
train and the clothing.
The police Of this city and Yonkera
are greatly puzzled. over the case and
say it is one of the most mysterious
they have had to deal with in a long
time. Various theories are advanced to
account for the Doctors condition,
One Of them is that he may have been
drugged, taken in a cab to the lonely
spot where his clothing was found
stripped Of his attire and then thrown
into the river Brought to conscious
ness by the cold water. 1t Is thought, ne
may have struggled to the other shore
climbed on the bank and then got onto
q passing freight Another theory Is
that he might have made srn attempt
at suicide while suffering from tenn
porary alteration Of the mind.
The police suggested that the suicide
took off his clothes, then climbed up to
the bridge, walked across and jumped
over, but instead of plunging into the
river landed onto a freight car. The
tracks pass under the bridge at this
point. Z s,
Officers were Immediately put tc
work on the case in an attempt to clear
up the mystery surrounding 1t.

a diligent French statistician has been
very busily engaged in computing tn.
emount of tips given in France annu-
ally to walters, cabmen, box-openers
at theaters, concierges, etc. The sums
thus spent amount to nearly half
million Of francs, or 500 000,0 In
Paris alone nearly 100000 chands in
this way daily.
The statistician says 1t means tax
Of seven centimes on each Partisan
every day. taking the big sum ment-
toned for the whole of the population.
including those who have no call to
give tips, as well as the others, who
spend a good deal Of their time in ca
fes.
Th yearly. amount of tips given in
Paris is about $1O0.000.00O francs. In
le provinces it reaches $4,000, 600
francs, which gives a tax Of three CEN
times daily for each French person
living in the departments.
The statistician claims to have got
as near the truth as possible. The tip
system undeniably fourishes in
France, and there are no signs of its
approaching abolition, despite the pc
riodical campaigns organized against

There is question what the Retail
Grocers association will do at the
coming session of the legislature re-
garding the pure food law. There are
some of the grocers who claim they
are in favor of such a law and Will
support it, but at. the last session the
grocers were opposed to the law and
worked with the wholesale grocers for
its defeat. At the beginning of the
session the grocers two years ago
claimed they favored the law. They
passed resolutions endorsing the bill
and Gov. Packard OF Marshalltown,
and State Dairy Commissioner II. Il.
Wright and others went to the legis-
latfye committee and told them that
the retail grocers endorsed the bill.
Then when the officers of the retail
ers got to the committee they talked
against it. There is some speculation
on what they will do this coming ses-
sion for the reason that there are
members OF the assoc iation who claim
that the officers did not properly rep
resent the association They claim that
the officers were unduly Influenced by
the wholesalers, and that the resolu-
tions adopted by the association prop
erly represented the opinion of the
majority of the members. They pro-
pose at the coming session OF the leg
islature to see that the sentiment Of
the association is properly expressed,
SO they say.
