to continue the war indefinitely AT
cost of money and thousands of lives,
with no surety that she will ever be
able. whatever her military successes,
to force tribute from her burly ad-
versary. 1t now looks as if in the
final struggle influence of neutral pow
ers and threats of financi,rs can bc
brought to bear to force the combat
ants to cease the bloody strife. The
money markets of the world have al
ready shown disposition To close
their doors TO Russia unless she makes
peace. In consequence, Russia only
the other day sought to raise an inter
nal loan of $i00. 900, 600 II met with
little response. although there is plenty
of idle money in Russia.
All Powerful Considerations.
Yesterday the cable brought report
that as the attempt was a failure the
treasury had resorted to the issue of
paper. The failure to respond to the
Japanese appeals for loans would
probably place Japan in even a worse
position. These considerations in the
next few days will prove all powerful.
Pause in Negotiations.
There is a pause today, specifically
at least. in the peace negotiations. Mr..
White and Baron Rosen this morning
went TO Magnolia to lunch with Bar
oness de Rosen. and may remain there
until tomorrow. Just before their de
parture Secretary Pierce was summon
conference with Witte. No eXplana
ton is given for the meeting and its
significance is problematical, but there
is a suspicion that White delivered to
Pierce n communication for President
Roosevelt
There is a report that cannot be alb

Baron Komura and Mr.. Takahira were

possible the president had some com

SOCIAL LEE IN BAXTER.

There is more social life in Bax-
ter Springs than any town OF it's
size in the state. We have more ag'
gregations of a literary, social. re-
ligious and scientific nature than
many cosmopolitan cities. 1t is "a
ladies' paradise, with day and
night functions of every character,
sex and complexion, from cake
walk to d Chautauqua, but the most
agreeable, entertaining successful
of all our functions are the social
whist parties, when our most beau.
tiful ladies and bravest men partic'
ipate.
Nearly all the men and women ct
Baxter can play AT whist. Some
are very good players, others medi'
um, and few quite inferior, but all
are willing to attempt the noble
game. Our whist parties are the
most pleasant ever held any where,
but in order to make them more in.
teresting the rules and laws OF the
game should be better understood.
Mr.. C. w. Daniels, in neat little
pamphlet has compiled the princi'
pal leads and rules of whist as laid
down by Hamilton, Pole, Cavendish
and other leading authors. These
rules are the result Of 200 years ex'
perience of the best players and the
com bined wisdom of some OF the
bra iniest men of America, England
and France. BY following these
rules whilst becomes a cool, calcu-
luting science. fit for statesmen,
senators and philosophers. Nearly
all chance is eliminated and the
game ia reduced to a methodical
system-an intellectual and palpa-
bic science.
We would like to ace all the whist
players of Baxter Springs learn the
rudimentary laws of the game and
follow the American rules as close
ly as possible. Those wishing to
improve on the old style of playing
will do well to call at the office OF
C. w. Daniels and get copy of HE
whist rules free of charge.
