80 PER CENT PAYMENT
In FARIBAULI UNLIKELY
Bv w. w. JermSne.

Washington, Feb. 24.-No one in the
office Of the controller of the currency
would say today whether an 80 per
cent settlement with the creditors of
the First National bank Of Faribault
would be acceptable to Controller
Ridgely. But precedent is against the
approval of such an offer.
Usually the controller insists upon
payment in full to all depositors, but
failed banks have been allowed to re-
open, upon an agreement by share
holders, to pay portion of the claims
in cash and the remainder in install
ments at stated intervals. In other
cases banks have been allowed to re-
sumo business upon an agreement with
depositors that their accounts should
stand at the same stage. as the, day
upon which the banks were closed. In
all cases, however, payment of claims
in full, restoration of capital and the
placing of the bank on sound fnan-
cial basis otherwise were insisted upon.
I The indications are that no plan in
volving the payment Of less than 100
per cent Of the claims Of the Faribault
bank will be approved. That will be
decided when the plans are submitted
formally and after full consideration
by the national bank authorities here.

BOTH SIDES WIN
NORTH SEA CASE.
Rojestvensky Is Not. Blamed, but
Satisfaction Is Guaranteed "
Great Britain.

Paris, Feb. 24.-The international
commission appointed to inquire into
the North sea incident practically con-
Guided it's work last night by finally
agreeing to diplomatic report which
will be publicly announced at the clos
ing session at clock next Saturday.
Concerning the report, the following
statement was made in most authorl-
tative quarter to the Associated Press:
When the text Of the decision becomes
known, it will be far more acceptable to
the British press and public than they
have been led to believe. The admirals
have sought middle ground and the de-
cision Is not a pronounced victory for
either side. It is Of such character as to
preserve Russia's self-respect and at the
same time give the British public much
ground for satisfaction. If anything, the
decision is rather more favorable to Great
Britain than to Russia
On the other hand, the Hovas agency
confirms it's semi-official statement Of
last night. It says:
The conclusions as q whole are quite
favorable to Russia, recognizing that Ad-
miral Rojestvensky could legitimately con-
slider himself in danger and act as he did.
However, the report contains reservations
calculated to satisfy British SUSCEPTIBLE
ties, the most important being that the
commission holds that the Russian fire
lasted too long and also that Rojestven-
sky should have speedily notified the Brit
ish maritime authorities Of the deplorable
incident.
Upon the question, Of the presence OF
torpedo boats, the commission frees all
navies from the imputation.
The commission rejected q motion of
Admiral Beaumont of Great Britain blam-
ing the Russian crews. ~ =
The conclusions are said to be in the
form Of questions whereto the commits
sioners state their answers either unant-
mously or as a majority.
The American officials are strongly
inclined to accept the view first stated,
that the decision is more favorable to
Great Britain than to Russia.
" The foreign admirals gave g. ban
quet last night in honor Of the presid-
ing officer, Admiral Fournier Of France.
The latter will return the compliment
on Saturday. President Loubet will
give a luncheon in honor Of the COM
mission at the Elysee palace Sunday.

the United States and his aid, ENSIGN
William F. Bricker, have taken passage

PENROSE ESCAPES
DEATH MACHINE
Threat Against Roosevelt in In.
! fernal Machine Addressed to
Senator.
New York Sun Special Service.

NDSSAoA -.. -.
Philadelphia, Feb. 24.--Addressed to
United States Senator Penrose at
Washington, an ingeniously constructed
infernal machine has been found, done
up in an innocent-looking package in
a private mail box in the hallway at
51120 Market street. ..--
Archibald j. Williams, photography
Ter, to whom the mail box belonged, and
who discovered the package, turned it
over to Captain of Detectives Donaghy
at city hall, who succeeded in opening
the box without exploding it's contents.
There was sufficient gunpowder and nj
wrecked a building and it was so con-
structed chat an attempt to open 1t IN
the ordinary way would undoubtedly
have caused it to explode.
1t was an ordinary looking paper box
of pale blue color, about two inches
wide, ten inches long and one, deep: 1t
the cover n instead of in the usual way
by raising the lid. The outside of the
package Consisted Of a plain white
pasteboard box on which was pasted
the following inscription, evidently
clipped from the headlines of some pa
per or circular:
"For Senator Penrose, congress,
Washington.
There were no stamps on the package
and it was tied with ordinary Irvine. In
side this package was q wrapper of
light brown paper tightly tied with
Irvine and with a number Of cuts and
inscriptions pasted on it.
On the second wrapper was the in
scription, "President Roosevelt. We
are not in any trust; time limited, inau-
guration.'
This latter inscription was construed
TO mean that something would be done
at the Inauguration, possibly an attempt
at assassination. One line on this
wrapper read:
"a test Of power Of trusts run
5down.'
1t is the opinion of Captain Donaghy
that the work was undoubtedly that Of
q crank, but crank with decidedly
dangerous tendency and devilish in
genuity, who has deadly luminosity to
certain prominent men, and they recall
that Guiteau was crank Of this kind.
