FIRST NATL BANK
LEASES FINE SITE
Secures the S. T. Mcknight Prop
erty, Fifth Street and First
Avenue S.
Building Commensurate with the
Great Banks Needs Will
Be Erected.

The First National bank has signed a
l5O-year lease of the Sumner r. Ne
Knight corner at Fifth street and First
avenue s as site for its new bank
building.
Under the lease, the reappraisal pc
Rod is every fifty years, and the annual
rent for the first period will be $4,000.
! The Mcknight corner corresponds in
size to the New York Life building site
a frontage on First avenue of ninety
nine feet and depth Of 165 feet. Mr..
Mcknight bought the land about four
years ago, and it has been practically
unoccupied since that time. While the
property cost about 100000 the new
lease on basis of 6 per cent would
make the value basis of the land
100000, or about $4,000 front foot.
!. The announcement of the First Ma
tional follows that of the Northwestern
National for First avenue near Fourth
street and the selection by the Security
bank of the corner of Second avenue S
and Fourth street for it's new building.
The move of the First National bank
was not unexpected. Altho its quarters
in the Phoenix building are ideal SO
far as the convenience of customers is
concerned, the building is not SO ar
ranged that the bank could get enough

ton of the Minneapolis club to make
way for business the situation is inter.
esting. It seems to show decided
trend of business to the south and west
from Third and Nicollet as center.
The First National has been credited
with several proposed moves within the
last two years, but the Security. bank
was always connected more definitely
by rumor with the Mcknight company
corner until it chose the Deering site
on Second avenue.

MIKADO TO MAKE
PLAN FOR MEETING
Russia Will Agree to Time and
Place Named by Her
Enemy.
Rumors of Hitch in Peace Plans
Denied Here and
Abroad.

ST.. Petersburg, June 12.-Japan and
Russia both having agreed to con-
elude peace, the next step, 1t is, ex-
planned here, will be the first direct
exchange, in which Japan IS expected
to take the initiative by indicating,
doubtless thru an intermediary at
Washington, her views as to the time
and place of meeting.
Russia will offer no objections to any
reasonable suggestion IN this respect,
being prepared to issue at once instruc-
tions to her preliminary plenipoten-
tiary, whose personality for the mo-
ment depends upon the place Japan
names.
Hitch Rumors Denied.
All attempts to create an impression
that there is the slightest hitch in the
preliminary negotiations are absolutely
without the shadow of foundation.
Foreign Minister Lamsdorff has for
mally notified several of the continental
powers that a meeting of plenipoten
tiaries to see whether it is possible tc
agree to terms of peace is assured.
Now that Russia has received for
NAL notification that Japan has sent AT
official and favorable reply to Presi
dent Roosevelt, the Russian official re
ply has been transmitted to President
Roosevelt and fully responds to thu
president s message.

FOLK SHUT TIGHT
LID ON MISSOURI
Governor Wins, Saloons Surren
der and Make No Sunday
Liquor Sales.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service
St. Louis, June 12-At last Governor
Folk has won his fight, the saloons have
surrendered, and the lid is on tight.
Yesterday, for the first time since the
governor began. his crusade for the en-
forcement Of the state laws compelling
resorts and barber shops to close on
Sundays, it was impossible, to buy
drink or get a shave anywhere in st.
Louis or in st. Louis county.
saloons Of the city have obeyed the law,
there have always beeen a few places
where the initiated could Stake their
thirst by employing some subterfuge,
such as giving a password or present.
ing a card showing membership in a
"club,' etc. But yesterday the lid
was on secure "; The saloon men have
given up the fight.
Out in the country the contrast be-
even more marked. Along broad high
ways, leading from the city to Clayton,
and in the gardens that mark the Sun
day congregating places Of st. Louis
county, the weary, thirsty, unshaven
and disappointed multitude thronged all
| day long-in vain.
A glass Of lemonade, sarsaparilla or
soda water could be obtained, but moth,
ing more. At numerous roadhouses and
popular resorts known under various
names but all having for their chief
business traffic in Intoxicating liquors,
there was no sign of life. Not place
was opened for even one brief minute
during the day and squad of deputies
who went back and forth searching for
| violators of the governor s orders,
found not one miscreant so bold as to
defy the law.
Turnout the state similar conditions
prevailed. Hannibal, which has shown
some disposition to ignore the closing
orders, surrendered completely and was
absolutely dry. St. Joseph, Kansas
City, Springfield and other big towns
are reported thoroly law-abiding, while
Had it been possible for man tc
visit every town and hamlet in Mis-
souri, yesterday he probably would have
been unable to buy drink Of intoxicat
ing liquor.

FLOODS MOVE ON
LOWER VALLEY
Several Lives Lost Near Hannibal
Livestock Left by Flying
Farmers to Perish.

Hannibal, Mo-, June 12.-The flooded
Mississippi river has spread over all the
unprotected lowlands and is from five
to eight miles wide between here and
Keokuk, Iowa. Near Alexandria, Mo-,
a farmer named Riley Smallwood was
drowned and seven other persons are re-
ported missing.
Large numbers of dead animals are
floating past Hannibal and from Alex
andria, Canton, Memphis, West Quincy
and Keokuk reports have been recelved
Of the general loss Of livestock. The
flood came so suddenly that the farmers
in the lowlands had no time to do more
than save their families and livestock
was left to perish.
The river continues to rise here at the
rate of three inches an hour. An army
of men is at work in the lower portion
Of Hannibal, endeavoring to save prop
erty. The railroad yards and factory
| district are inundated.
All available boats are making trips
up and down the river rescuing per
sons who escaped to points above the
| water line.
Many of the small levees have broker
but the 'Sny levee, which extends alone
the east side Of the river for seventy
five miles, still holds. Already the prop
erty loss, it is estimated, will run int
! several millions. $50, e.

CHICAGO UNIONS
IN BIG SCANDAL
Plot to Be Revealed and, Evidence
Shown Which Will Shake
Organized Labor.
Lawn York Sun Snacial Sar1ice,

New York Sun Special Service.
Chicago, June 12.-Sensational evil
dence concerning frequent meetings of
many of the labor leaders Of Chicago
in a notorious resort in the levee dis
trict, at which thousands of dollars
worth of wine was drunk, and concern.
ing the inside workings of an alleged
clique Of conspirators, has been OBJ
tanned by Inspector LAWN and detec-
tives from the Harrison street station.
Many witnesses, the most IF whom
are women, will, it is said, lay bare to
members of the grand jury plot which
is expected to land like bomb in the
camp Of tunion officials.
For several days detectives have
been at work on the case and at an
early hour this morning Inspector
LAWN and Assistant States Attorney
Fake were closeted with one of the
principal witnesses-a woman-in the
office of Lieutenant Walsh at the Cot
tage Grove avenue station.
Assistant State s Attorney Fake ad
mitted that he had found the head
quarters of the officials high in labor
circles He also said that the place
was well-known resort on the South
Side and said that when certain evi
dence was made public'i it would shake

|PANIC TN SUBWAY
FLOOD In GOTHAM
Huge Waterman Bursts and
Causes Far-Reaching Trouble
in Metropolis.

New York, June 12.-Underground
traffic in New York was practically at
a standstill today. For more than q
mile in the center Of the main line OF
the tube which connects doWn-toWn
New York with Harlem and the Bronx,
the tracks were covered to depth OF
several feet with the water which
poured down in flood when a big
main broke at Park avenue Sunday az
ternoon.
The flow Of water continued uninter-
rupted four and one-half hours. En-
wandered about in the vicinity of Park
avenue and Forty-frst street turning
off one gate after another in futile
search for the proper shutoff to stop the
destructive food. Officers of the sub
way frantically telephoned in all direc-
lions but say they found no one IN
authority with the requisite knoWleuge
of the mains.
The damage was checked thru infor-
nation furnished by private citizen
employed by a contracting firm. 1t is
estimated that the damage to the sub
way alone will be 100000.
Panic in Subway.
Persons who were caught in the
trains near the flood when the power
failed had a terrifying experience. All
| the lights were suddenly extingulshed
| following a series Of explosions. Men,
women and children we're thrown in a.
panic Of dread as the tunnel suddenly
| became intensely dark. There was a
rush for the doors when water began to
spray thru the open windows but the
guards held their ground and closed the
windows.
The temperature quickly became sti-
fling and finally the guards were uncer-
moniously pushed aside while the pas
sengers plunged into the water and
made their way to the nearest stations,
cropping along the walls in order to
avoid the third rail current.
Train Service in Gotham.
/ Both above and below the seriously
affected section shuttle trains were OPP
/ Grated today, but they were only scan
tily patronized. The majority of trav-
elers want thru connections, and with
the subway blocked, they naturally
turned to the elevated and surface
lines. AS a result, there were scenes
such as have not been witnessed since
the strike of the subway and elevated
employees several months ago. Every
