Philip Kreigh, "Indiana's 7OO-pound
man," who was we'll known all over

could not be taken through the door,
and it was necessary to remove the
casing from the window and take
away parts of the weather-boarding
i'll order to get the coffin out of the
house.
There is no hearse large enough to
hold the coffin, and the body was
hauled to the grave in a two-horse
wagon. The funeral was under the

He was "a years old.

MUNICH AL|zAT|ON"
Subject Occupies the Attention
OF the League O. Anner.can
municipalities.
MAYOR dunno is IT'S ADVOCATE
Declares 1t a Success Wherever Tried,
and Complains of Being Viii
flied by Its Enemies.

Toledo, O., Aug. 25.-Municipal own
ership of public utilities was the ques-
t0n which aroused earnest discussion
at the session Of the League of Amer
lean municipalities. The conflict Of
views among the members which was
SO apparent yesterday was intensified
by Mayor Dunno, Of Chicago, whose
speech in defense of municipal owner
ship was the feature of the session.
DUNES address, which he read, COW
cred all the points in favor of public
ownership which he advocated in his
"ecent campaign for mayor, and he ex-
pressed himself as being firm in the
belief that the people of his city, along
with citizens Of other cities, would
own and control these public utilities.
Says 1t Is Up to the Council.
When asked how soon he expected
tC secure public ownership i'll Chicago,
he replied that he did not know, that
the question had been presented by
him to the council nearly two months
ago, but that no action has been taken,
and that he is powerless to doanything
without the cooperation Ct the coun-
Gil. Mayor Dunno said in part:
Municipal ownership of public util-
tiles has been in force not only in Eu-
lopean countries but throughout the
United States for half century, if
not longer. 1t has proved, with refer
ence to the utilities SO owned and Oper-
ated, efficient, economical and entire
ly satisfactory to the public. During
that half century it has been applied
mainly to the production and distribu-
ton of water, the establishment and
maintenance of municipal sewerage
systems, parks, and in many instances
municipal bathing houses" Then he
said there was a growing sentiment in
favor of extension of municipal own,
ership to street car lines, ETC., end re-
ferred to British experiments in that
line.
Complains of His Treatment.
He then proceeded: II have been
represented throughout the United
States as having abandoned my mu-
nicipal ownership views, as having
proved recreant to my prediction
pledges and dislOyal to the people of
Chicago. Vilitication has taken the
place Of argument and mendacity has
supplanted truth. But neither Wifi
cation nor mendacity can swerve either
myself or the friends of municipal
ownership from the course that we are
pursuing. If any better scheme can
be devised which will produce more
immediate results we will adopt it.
We shall pursue our even course tc
satisfy the peoples will and to ac-
complish the peoples demands"
Atlanta Mayor Is Opposed.
Mayor Woodward, of Atlanta, who
is leading the fight against municipal
ownership, replied to Dunno, holding
that private ownership of utilities,
properly controlled, is Of greater pub
lie benefit than if owned by munich

Portsmouth, n. H., Aug. 25.-The
prospects of peace seem desperate, but
they are not hopeless, despite the pre-
vailing pessimism. There is still
chance, and the forces working for
peace are continui2is their lahors. The
President failed twice, but he is fight
ing on. The result of Ambassador
Meyers audience at Peterhof WedneS-
day was unsatisfactory, but at least it
was not a rebuff. 1t left the door open,
and within few hours after the re-
ceipt at Oyster Bay Of Meyers ac-
count of his audience the president
had sent new appeal through de
White, who received it from PIERCE
about a. m. yesterday. The emperor
had already in effect declined the pro-
posed compromise offered by Japan.
Why the Gar Said No.
He had refused it because under
disguise Japan offered to withdraw
the article asking remuneration for the
cost Of the war on condition that Rus
STA repurchase from the military pos
session Of Japan the northern part of
Sakhalin at a fixed price of 100000
600 yen-the estimated ''frais de
guerre." Every message received from
Peterhof, including those that came
early yesterday, was infexible upon
that point Had Japan not inserted
the sum, had that been left for future
adjustment, the proposition, so it is
urged by the hopeful, would undoubt-
edly have proved more palatable.
President Did Not Name a Sum.
The president did not suggest any
price, or the fixing of price, and it
is believed, although this cannot be
affirmed, that his latest effort is to Sc
agree to accept the Japanese PROPOSE
ton with the amount subject to future
adjustment by an arbitration board or
otherwise According to the Japanese
de Witte has already offered to divide
Sakhalin. Japan, it is believed, would
make the further concessions suggest
Ell if Emperor Nicholas would COM
nit himself to this solution. This
statement is based upon the words of
the Japanese authority most competent
to speak
What the Japanese Authority Said.
When asked if it was correct as re-
ported that the Japanese had said their
last word, and that all hope was over,
he replied: "No, we have not de-
clared our proposition of Wednesday
was our irreducible minimum. We
are not assuming a threatening atti-
tude That is not the way to make
peace" But the plenipotentiaries them
selves no longer control on either side.
The negotiations have passed from
their hands to their principals at
Peterhof and Toxic.
AS to the LamsdOrff Report.
Cables from St Petersburg yester-
day said that Count Lamsdorff, Rus
sian foreign minister, had authorized
the Reuter- Telegram company to state
positively that Russia will pay no
contribution, direct or indirect, nor will
it make any cession of territory what
ever" De White says he cannot i'm
agine Lamsdorff authorizing such a
statement without informing him {de
Witte).
