London, March 13.-The st. Peters

I learn on the best authority that ia

informal channels on the subject of peace
negotiations, but that in each case the
proposal failed because Japan demanded

Not Ready for Peace.

Should the island empire choose to
tender moderate' terms and recog-
nize its adversary as a power in the
far east, peace could be easily arranged,
but the voice of her diplomacy in va
rious parts of the world indicates that
she is not ready to do this, and the Rus
sian government, with the full magni-
tude Of the disaster at Mukden still un-
determined, but with the 1905 campaign
seemingly already hopelessly compro.
missed, retreat to Hardin inevitable and
Vladivostok practically lost, declares
that the time has not yet come when
Russia can be forced to humble herself.

Two New Army Corps.

:. It is reported that the dispatch Of
two new army corps, including the
Fourteenth from Poland, and several
smaller units, has already been deter
mined upon and that plans for further
mobilization are under discussion The
difficulties Of another mobilization on
large scale, however, will be enor-
nous; in fact, it is stated in some quar-
ters that it will be impossible. Never
theless, it might be accomplished.
The real hope, however, for anything
like successful termination Of the
war is admitted to rest upon the pros
poets Of the financial exhaustion of
Japan 80
It will be difficult to find a capable
successor to General Kuropatkin, but
it is said now that probably it will be
General Grodekoff, governor Of the
Amur, altho, in casting. about for an.
other commander-in-chief,s some military
officials are turning to General Drago-
mirof, who is considered to be Russia Is
greatest strategist; but he is feeble
old man, suffering with a heart atfec-
tion, and it is highly improbable that
he would be able even to make the
long trip to Manchuria.
In losing General Kuropatkin, the
army will lose the idol Of the private
soldiers, an officer who, in spite Of in.
trigues Of his generals and his failure
to win a battle, has won their conf.
dence and affection.

Special to Times Republican.
Davenport. Oct. 1.-THE fioater
found in the river near the Mueller
mill early yesterday morning has been
identified as the body of Carl Juergens,

THE INVESTIGATION RESUMED
Mc<een Files Statement Showing
Counsel Beck's Figures Regarding
Assets Of the Mutual Life Were Way
of - Gradual Reduction Of Divi-
dends on Policies.

New York, Oct 17.-Richard A. Nc
Curdy, president of the Mutual Life.
was again a witness before the COM
mittee investigating the insurance bus
mess today. Before this witness was
called, James McKeen, associate
counsel to the committee, put in evil
dence statement Of the assets of the
Mutual Life and the Banks Of Eng
land, France and Germany. James NJ.
Beck, counsel for the Mutual, claimed
before the committee the assets of the
Mutual Life exceeded the combined
assets of those banks. McKeen said
he had ascertained the combined assets
of those institutions were $2,226,57
600, while those of the Mutual were
440,97S,000. McKsen had found the
salary of the president of the bank OF
Germany to be 100000 per annum and
that of the chief governor of the Bank
OF England $4,000.
When McCurdy was called. Hughes
read a number of letters from the
stockholders showing a gradual re-
duction Of dividends on policies In the
face of the increasing reserve fund,
but McCurdy positively refused to en-
ter upon discussion concerning divi-
dends, etc, saying such information
could be obtained from the actuary Of
the company. Hughes then brought out
that salaries had been slightly reduced
in reforms Of the clerical force and
general agencies. i
II have not reduced the salaries Of
the executive officers, they were never
cut. They were none too fat anyway"
said McCurdy.
McCurdy admitted he knew no more
about the tIdvernsements the Mutual
puts out than the casual reader. He
testified that A. c. Fields occupied a
house at Albany during the session OF
the legislature, the rent of which was
paid by the Mutual McCurdy said he
didn't know Andrew Hamilton and was
surprised to learn that the Mutual had
paid money to him. During the exam
ination McCurdy displayed some tenn
per when Mr.. Hughes piled questions
regarding his administration as pres
ident, saying Hughes was attempting
to prove he was a fool.

MISS ALICE FACES TAX.
Pfssident's Daughter Must. Pay Full

w ashington, Oct. II. Secretary
Shaw and the collector Of the port Of

n Bile for several weeks about which the
public has known nothing, and it was
lifted yesterday when the secretary
was told by President Roosevelt 10
collect the legal duty on all dutiable
/. articles brought back to this country
\ BY Miss Alice Roosevelt. The total
8 OF the duty is expected to be nearly
$4,000
The daughter of the president has
received during her trip to the Philips
pines, China, Japan and Korea many
pretty and some quite valuable pres
ents. One newspaper reported several
weeks ago that the actual value would
he something like 100000. She re-
ceived valuable silks in China and
I Japan, pearls in the Island of Sulu and
4 wherever she has gone gifts have been
Uncovered on her.
Treated az as Princess.
The customs officials have been won
dering what they ought to- do wnenf
Miss Roosevelt arrived in an American
port with the riches of the mines ana
looms of the Orient. Some of them
suggested that, as she is the daughter
+ Of the president, she ought to be al
lowed to bring the valuables in duty
free, inasmuch as she was treated with
8 all the honors Of a princess, and did
much to cement friendship between
the United States and foreign coun-
tries. The belongings Of crowned heads,
Of royalty and Of diplomats are thus
admitted duty free into the United
States
Secretary Shaw received suggestions
until he was almost sick. All that
stood out before his official gaze was
that the presents had been reported as
worth probably 100000, and II the US
sual rate Of duty was imposed, 1t would
COST Miss Roosevelt or her father up

Miss Roosevelt nor her father is rich,

right.

Finally Secretary Shaw took his bur.
den to the president. and told him
about 1t. 81
q There Is only one thing to do" re-
piled the president. 'That is to treat
my daughters baggage as you would
the baggage of any other private per-
son. She win pay duty on everything
that Is dutiable."
Secretary Shaw feels better about It.
Members Of the Taft party to the

Roosevelt's presents has been exag-
gerated. but whatever the value 1t will
