Peace Seems Doubtful
Of Accomplishment Now
Special Copyright Cable }

+ LONDON, June 1.-THE replies of the
Car and Mikado to the note of Presi-
oent Roosevelt are awaited with great
interest by the foreign officers and dip
lomats generally
The fact that the advices received here
Ioady from both Tokyo and ST. Peters
burg do not appear particularly san
guine has created a bad impression. The
impression is growing that, after all.
peace is not probable at this time.
There are several things which make
for this belief. The most important
proposition is the statement which ap-
pears TO be authentic, to the effect that
Russia's envoy will have no power save
TO receive Japan's terms and TO arrange
for an armistfce, and the news from
Mahchuria that Oyama is pushing his
lines ahead
On the other hand, the semi-official
report from Russia that the Gear will
probably appoint Baron Rosen and NJ
Witte as peace ENJOYS leads to the be-
lief that Russia Is IN earnest Both
these statesmen are known to be firm
advocates Of peace.
1t is hoped the official replies will soon
be made public at Washington. and that
they wills form a basis for intelligent
opinion on the subject

Estimates based on reports thus far
received by the State official who has
charge OF the census. clearly show that
the rural districts have suffered a de-
crease in population during the five
years eiapsing since the Government
census, and the reports fail TO indicate
a corresponding Increase in the census
of the urban centers.
Ihe last Congressional apportfonment
was made under the census of 1900, and
the next will be made under the census

The increase under the last census was

not securing an additional Congressman.

BONAP ARTE ASSUMES
STATE LEADERSHIP
Will Manage Fight Against
Disfranchisement.
AT REQUEST OF PRESIDENT
Democrats Anticipate Disruption In
Republican Ranks Result of
His Attitude.

BALTIMORE, June 1.-THE Demo-
cratic leaders are enjoying the discom-
future of the Republican politicians
caused by Charles ]. Bonaparte assum-
ing the leadership of the party In Mary
land.
Bonaparte says he will enter the Cab
met as Secretary of the Navy, July J..
some time earlier than he expected.
From the tenor of his speech to the Re-
publican State committee it Is apparent
that the President has requested him to
look after the party's interests in this
State.
Disfranchisement Amendment.
Mr.. Roosevelt is particularly interest
ed In the fight against tho amendment
for disfranchising the coIor-da voters.
He realizes that Bonaparte Is able to
stir up the Independent ti-Gorman
Democrats as he has done before and
array them against the amendment.
Democrats read between the lines of
Bonaparte's speech the announcement
of leadership. They declare that his
prominence win disrupt the Republican
organization and make 1t easy to carry
the amendment.
Republicans Worried.
II Is already apparent that several
leading Republicans upon whom the
brunt Of recent campaigns has fallen
are not pleased with Bonaparte's atti-
tude. He has always been regarded by
Republican organization men as a more
or less disturbing factor
Several Eastern Shore Republicans are
looming UP as candidates for the nomi-
nation for State comptroller. They are
State Senator Robert B. Dixon, Of Tall
bot county; John D. Uric, Of Kent, and
Charles w. Hobbs. of Caroline county.

ANTl-QUAY MEN WITH HIM

HARRISBURG, Pa, June III. is

politics is usually correct that Mayor
Viewers tight against the Philadelphia
ring Is to extend into the several cities
OF the State. and that already combina-
tons are being made in this city and
In Ptttsburg which may result in TAX
Ing away the State convention next
year from the men who seized the po-
ltical machinery after the death Of SEN
ator Matthew Stanley Quay.
Mayor Weaver's continued looping of
heads in Philadelphia means that he in
tends during his term as mayor, which
has eighteen months to run, to destroy
the power Of the machine, and it is re-
garded as certain that he will be able
to take a delegation to the next Har-
risburg convention lined up solidly for
him as candidate for governor.
Weaver Is Determined.
Weaver is determined that he and his
friends shall not be put out of public
life by the machine. AS a last resort
the men who are against Senator Pen
rose. Insurance Commissioner Durham.
and their allies, will accept the invita-
ton of the recent Democratic State Con-
yention for fusion agreement among in
dependent Republicans and Democrats,
and It is believed that no trouble will be
had in placing Mayor Weaver at the
head of fusion State ticket.
1t is noticeable that the men who fur
nished the brains of the great anti
Quay movement during the five years
1t was carried on are perfecting the
machinery Of the Weaver organization
throughout the State. It is seen that
z. A. Van Valkenberg, one of the most
foremost politicians in the State, and
leading spirit in the anti-Quay insur-
gent movement, is taking hand in the
present movement.
Appointing Friends to Office.
Several of his friends have been APP
pointed by Weaver to offices in the. last
few weeks. One Of these, Thomas l..
Hicks. was the Philadelphia chairman
of the Union party, and has led nu-
merous anti-machine local contests.
Thomas W. South. who. has been APP
pointed assistant director of public
safety, is another man who was actively
against Senator Quay, and II Is under
stood that the anti-PenroSe Republicans
have obtained the efficient support of
John p. Elkin, probably the most popu-
lar Republican III Pennsylvania, man
who, almost unassisted, came near de-
feating the machine in the last conYen-
