"Signs of action in favor of univer-
sal peace abound. Should the proposed
periodic congress be established we
shall have the germ of our council of
nations which is coming to keep the
peace Of the world, judging between
nations as the supreme court of the
United States judges today between
states embracing an area larger than
Europe. It will be no novelty, but
merely an extension of an agency al
ready proved upon a smaller scale.
eNotwi thstanding all the cheering
signs Of the growth of arbitration we
should delude ourselves if we assumed
that war is immediately to cease. For
it is scarcely to be hoped that the fu-
ture has not to witness more than one
great holocaust Of men to be offered
up before the reign of peace blesses
the earth. But that peace is to come
at last, and that sooner. much sooner
than the msSority of my hearers can
possibly credit. I for one entertain not
one particle of doubt"
At the close of Mr.. Carnegie's adj
dress degrees were conferred on the
five Americans and on four Scotchmen.

RUN cIrY BY TRUsTEEs.
That Is Latest Suggestion by Council
man Howe.

To run the city with simply a board
of three trustees. This is the way
Councilman S. T. Howe believes the
city of Topeka should be run
He wouldn't have any counciImen
nor would he have a mayor. The
board would run the city government
just the same as a board of trustees
runs one of the departments of the
city now. Il like that suggestion of
Mayor W. H. Davis that one man
could run the city better than with a
body of cOuncilmens" said Mr.. Howe.
II have always thought that it could
be run better on more business like
lines, if it were in the hands OF q few
men instead OF a large number as it is
now. I believe that it should be run
by a board of trustees"

ana tie mcuDers OF MS encourage SAT
up late receiving press and private
kilograms from st. Petersburg. The
keenest interest prevails here, where
Russia is probably better understood
than elsewhere, because OF geograph-
ical nearness and close business rela-
tionship. While the outbreak is looked
upon as one which proceeded from the
hearts of the people the foreign office
does not believe that it presages a
revolution, because it lacks efficient
leadership and is without adequate
support among the bulk of the popula-
tion throughout the empire. Govern
ment contrel of the telegraph lines and
railroads makes cooperation of the
discontented impossible. At the time
of the French revolution man could
walk from Bordeaux to Paris, but no
one can walk from Odessa to St. Pc
tersburg and partake in the events
there The official view is that al
though any friend of Russia must be
sorrowful over the internal situation
the Russian government dare not drop
the reins or the horses will run away.
The government, to avoid anarchy,
must act stringently.

Master Lee and the board of adjust
ment of the brotherhood of Railroad
Trainmen Mr. Morrissey announced
that the differences between the com

ment was issued by Mr.. Atterbury and
Mr.. Morrissey;
"Mr Atterbury has accepted Mr..
Morrissey's proposition on the Jersey
City situation, increasing the wages of
the conductors and brakemen to the
standard rates of New York harbor,
together with other working condi-
tions.
"Mr. Morrissey has accepted Mr.-At
terbury's proposition of Jan. Z, as
amplified by the results of the confer
ences of the last few days, in regard
to brakemen assisting the firemen.
"Mr. Atterbury will in addition take
and put into effect within reasonable
time such other measures of relief not
only to the brakemen but also to the
firemen as have been discussed and
offered by Mr.. Atterbury and suggest
ed by the committee"
The concessions granted by the
company to the trainmen in the Jersey
City case mean considerable in
crease in wages.

FATHER GoPoN IN HIDING;
POLICE FAIL TO FIND HIM

Rumors were current that the strik-
ers proposed TO proclaim a general at
tack on property and a reign of an
| archy, but the labor leaders denied
this In the most vigorous terms. One
OF Father Gopon's lieutenants declared
that the leaders of the strikers had
resolved to preach the gospel of armed
resistance and the overthrow of autoc-
racy, but that it did not carry with it
threat of pillage OF any attack on
property. The police have not yet
been able to locate Father Gopon,
though they are searching for him
everywhere. His whereabouts is known
to only half dozen trusted lieuten-
ants, through whom he issues orders.
No newspapers have appeared since
Friday except the Official Messenger,
containing the government DEGREES,
which is printed under military protec-
ton at the office of the State bank,
where the bank notes are issued. Off
cial accounts of Sundays affair were
posted on all the bulletin boards Strik-
ers who came to read spat upon them.
1t is reported that at one of the
meetings in the early hours of the
morning some of the strike leaders
discussed the advisability of sending
delegations to the various embassies
to appeal to the foreign powers for
protection, but no action was taken,
at least no deputations had appeared
at any of the embassies up to noon.
The situation continues very crit
ical. The military have the upper
hand in st. Petersburg and SO long as
the troops remain true they can crush
any attempt at resistance in the cap
ital But the eyes of all are turned
toward the interior for the effect which
the news will produce in the big CEN
ters. Considerable excitement, the AS
sociated Press hears by telephone, ex-
lists at Moscow, but no open demon
stration has been reported. The work
men and social democrats are planning
a complete strike at the old capital
