With sscrstary Root.

Washington, Oct. Baron Rosen,
he Russian ambassador, interviewed
Secretary Root in reference to the
projected second conference Of the
powers ct The Hague. He did so fol.
lowing suggestion made to him by
President Roosevelt short time ago.
Baron Rosen stated that the Rus.
.sian government, while not sending
sDut formal invitations for the second
conference, has caused the various
3stgnatory powers to be addressed In
an informal manner with 9 view TO
ascertaining whether or not they were
willing to accept such an Invitation
should It be formally rendered. The
powers were also assured that Presi-
dent Roosevelt had given his hearty
support to the project. Furthermore,
steps were taken to secure the admis-
sion to the second conference Of the
South and Central American states,
none Of whom were represented at the
,frst conference, nor were allowed to
sequently adhere to The Hague
convention.
It was arranged that Secretary Root
would In the near future draft re-
Spouse to the Russian invitation,
which will probably be the first Of
the responses and open the way for
prompt action by all Of the other pow.

St. Petersburg, Oct. 6.-Despite the
grant of autonomy, placing the adj
ministration and policy of the univer-
sites in the hands of elected rectors
and councils of professors who are
thoroughly in sympathy with the re-
form work, the educational situation
is darkening and there is prospect
that the hot-headed zeal of student

approval of the council of professors,
already been forced to close that uni

FIGHT DUEL TO THE DEATH.
Terrible Battle Between Two Mer
Near Hibbina, MINI.

Duluth, Oct. 6.-With no other wit
nesses than vicious dog two men,
James Canty, a timber cruiser, and
Gus Lahti, homesteader, fought a
duel to the death at Taber, seventeen
miles north of Hibbing.
Both men realized that it was a
case Of the survival of the fittest and
both of the bodies were found badly
mangled. Canty left Welsh's camp,
near Taber, one afternoon and it is
supposed that he was either attacked
by Lahti's dog or had angered Lahti
by crossing the line Of his home
stead. 8
A quarrel ensued and Lahti at
tackled CAVITY with knife, giving
Canty several deep cuts about the
head and body. Lahti also carried q
short barreled gun, with which he
shot his opponent in the breast. Canty
evidently wrenched the knife away, as
I.ahti was also badly cut.
The former was also chewed about
the legs by the dog. When the men
were nearly dead appearances indt
cate that they had called the fight on
and taken different directions, as the
bodies were found 900 feet apart, an
equal distance from the scene Of the
battle.

Costly

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 23.-All
records for the cost of obtaining a
copyright have been broken by the mo-
ton picture films Of the Britt-Nelson
battle, which have just been placed in
the mail. TO get the governments
protection for these photographs it was
necessary to make two complete films
of the whole fight, to be sent to Wash
ington. The cost of each film was
$3.50 or $500 for the two, and all this
investment will be forever locked up
in the archives of the government. The
two films stretched out from end to end
measured upward of 10000 feet, or a
little less than two miles. In each film
there are $4,000 separate photographs
or 100000 in all. The aggregate weight
of the five packages in which the
films were sent away was f1fty-eight
pounds. At the regular rate the post
age would have amounted to more

concession of accepting copyright ma.

ERRORS
ASSIST SEALS
MlSPLAYS RESPONSIBLE FOR
THREE RUNS
Hall and Henley Batted Numerically
Dillon Makes Three of Los
Angeles Four Runs.
The Score

Eleven runs were made in yesterdays
game, but they weren't distributed
right. That is, the distribution of the
runs will not help Los Angeles to win
the championship for the second half
of the season. San Francisco got seven
of those runs and little old Los Angeles
only a measly four. Errors by the
Angels were responsible for three of
the Seals runs.
Hits were numerous. Scarcely a
player but got one good crack at the
ball and some fattened their averages
with two or three. A player that
couldn't hit Hall or Henley yesterday
had little excuse for travelling in the
Pacific Coast league. When the smoke
of battle cleared away 1t was found
that Los Angeles had swatted the ball
seven times and San Francisco eleven.
Runners began to cross the plate in
the second inning and after that 1t was
nothing but swat the pill and gallop
around the bases. Dillon began the
scoring by taking a walk to first and
later crossing the plate on Eager's
double to left. Toma made his usual
two errors and one of them let in
Waldron in the third inning. In this
same inning Flood and Dillon both
scored, Flood trotting home through
at the plate in this inning or there
would have been three runs to the
Angels credit.
Three Runs In Sixth
In the fourth and fifth there was
little doing but pop-fying, but in the
sixth San Francisco sent three men
around the sacks. The music began
with a single to left by Mohler, fol-
lowed by a walk for Hildebrand. Eager
made an error at this critical time and
Nealon safely landed on first. Then
with all the bases full Householder
singled, scoring Mohler and Hide
brand. Ross made an error in left
field and Nealon scored. This was the
third run that could be directly traced
to errors on the part of the Angels.
Had 1t not been for these untimely err
rors the score would have been tie
at the end of the ninth inning.
The eighth inning brought three more
runs for San Francisco. Mohler again
led the slaughter by a single to center
and double by Hildebrand scored him.
Irwin singled to center, scoring Hide
brand. Householder then doubled,
scoring Irwin.
Dillon made his third run of the game
in this inning, starting himself with a
double and scoring on Ross out.

be soon relieved by Essick, who pitched
a fine game. Portland bumped Graham
