WAITING FOR ARM!sTlcE.
Russia Has Not Vet Rep'ied to Pres
ident's Suggestions.

I0entS Suggestions.
Washington, June rs. - Mr.. Taxa
1hira, the Japanese minister, returned
to Washington yesterday afternoon
from a visit of several days in New
England and called at the White
House last night, where he was re-
.ceived by the president, and remained
for three-Quarters of an hour. The
minister would have nothing to say
about his conference or the situation
at this time, beyond remarking that
-"some matters must be settled first"
When asked about an arm "stice, the
fact that the minister could give no as.
-surances regarding an ar:x,ist,ce prior
to the Washington conference tends to
confirm the belief in off ;,al circles
here that little Roadway las yet been
made by the president in this direc-
ton. Up to a late hour yesterday af-
rternoon,
The Russian Reply
TO the presidents suggestion regard
ing an armistice had not been re.
sceived, and until this reply is re-
~ceived the result of this phase of the
negotiations cannot be known. In
view of the fact that the president has
thus far addressed himself ssh iltane.
.ously to both belligerent powers. there
is a disposition to believe that Mr..
"Takahira may have brought to the
White House last night an expression
~of Papan's views upon an armistice
in response to the presidents well
known hope that clash would not
precede the conference. 1t has all
:.along been understood that Japan
would be unwilling to grant an armis
,tice at this time unless thoroughly as
sured that Russia was seriously desir
sous of peace. Whether such assur
ances have been forthcoming is moi

PAPER FROM ALUMINIUM
The Wonderful Metal Is Utilized in
Making Various ArticIes-Great
Increase In Output

NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y, Nov. 12.-
More aluminium is manufactured In
Niagara Falls than in any other place
in the world. 1t was on August 26,
1895, that the works at Niagara Falls
started operations, and in the ten years
that have passed the development has
been wonderful, greatly benefiting the
steel interests for in the modern
method of making steel aluminium is
used in small quantities.
Usually from two to five ounces of
aluminium are put in each ton of open
hearth steel made, and from six to
eight ounces into a ton of Bessemer
steel. In fact, had every ton of steel
made in the United States in 1904 been
subjected to this treatment something
like 5000, 900 pounds of aluminium
would have been consumed by the steel
industry alone.
In 1904 S,6O0,00O pounds of aluminium
were made in the United States, an in
crease of 100000 pounds over 1903. In
1902 the output in the United
States was 100000 pounds. The
output in 1903 is of particular
interest, because of the fact that
twenty years before that the output
was only eighty-three pounds and at
the end of the first decade of manufac-
ture, in 1885, only 339,629 pounds were
made.
Every day aluminium is applied to
new uses, increasing the consumption
to a wonderful degree. Aluminium
paper is one of the late-t products, and
it is said to be far superior to tin foil
and similar articles. Aluminium is used
for household utensils as we'll as those
for military purposes. In textile mill
work aluminium spools and bobbins are
aluminium is much lighter than brass.
1t is used on railway cars, on locomo-
tives, photographic plates, letter boxes,
in patented explosives, for making acid
carboys and many other chemical Ves-
sells.

NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-"Jerome, a
thoroughbred cat, which cost $3.50. has
saved its owner, George Dewar, of No.
19 Covert place, Flushing, from being
robbed of several thousand dollars
worth of jewelry.
He sleeps in the kitchen and never
moves from the stove all night long.
Consequently, his master and mistress,
Mr.. and Mrs. George Dewar, were sur
prised to find him in their room early
yesterday morning. He butted Mr..
Dewar under the chin, and when his
master raised up in bed he saw that
Jerome" was greatly agitated.
He awakened Mrs. Dewar, who was
also surprised to find jerome" there,
because she had, before going to bed,
locked him up in the kitchen.
When Mr.. Dewar got out of bed
he ran out of the room and went part
of the way down stairs, but came back
In a great hurry and seemed more
excited than ever. Mr.. Dewar took
his revolver and went down stairs. AS
he stepped into the kitchen he saw
a man dropping into the yard from a
window.
The police were called but the bur-
glar got away. He took very little of
the stuff he had packed up. Evident
ly the cat ran up stairs as soon as
the burglar opened the kitchen door,
and when Mr.. Dewar was awakened
he got out.

Under his blue blouse was found
swathed about his body an evening
wrap of purest white lace in a fall
model, which fitted only at the should
ers and flowed in full lines to the knee.
The sleeves, stopping half way between
elbow and wrist took a deep cuff of
real ermine, and the round neck was
finished with a circular collar of the

The man said he was Henri Herve,

at $1,000.
