Trenton. N j., Aug 25.-As the result OF a
special inspection ordered by Governor Stokes

the AlametcOng, the MuscOnetcOng. the Narrit-

The inspection, made by William III. Lewis. of
Morristown. formerly of the board of steam
boat inspectors of New-Jersey. was the result
OF controversy between two of the present in
spectors as to whether license should be grant
cd to one of the boats the lake. leading to
quarrel between the rival Black and White lines
and grave charges that the machinery OF the
boats was defective. In some the hus

with tie finger There also a general dis
regard of the requirements for life preservers
and for the maximum number of passengers.
The investigation aas also disclosed the fact
that the State laws on the subject are so defec

Amendments to these will be recommended by
Governor Stokes in his next message TO the
legislature.
Charles Cliff, owner of the Gladys. and Moses

PLAN To IMPEACH MAYOR.
atlanta CounciImen Feel He Has
Disgraced the City.
LBy TeIegraph to The Trihune. l


Atlanta. Aug. 23-James G. Woodward, At
lanta's Mayor. will be impeached as the result
of his attack on Mayor Dunno of Chicago at the
Municipal League Convention at Toledo Ohio
At secret caucus, held this afternoon by a
majority OF the members OF the General Coun-
c!l, it decided to impeach the Mayor and
to pass resolution apolosizing to members of
the =. unicipal League, and to Mayor Dunno in
particular.
The opinion of the councilmen is that by no
other method can the city atone for the insult
which, it is felt here by the officials, was given
TO every city represented. Citizens generally are
indignant at his conduct, and there is no at
tempt to defend the Mayor. even by those who
have been his warmest supporters. A member
of the Council, who has been very close to Mayor
Woodward, said:
| have stuck Jim through thick and thin
take official action He's disgraced Atlanta
Only by furnishing him can Atlanta remove the
stain.
The laws OF the city provide for the impeach-
ment for officials who bring disgrace the
city and it is felt by all who have discussed the
case which has been the chief topic at the City
Hall to-day, that there would be trouble in
finding the Mayor guilty. The Council is not
friendly to Mr. Woodward and there Is no
chance for his friends to obtain mercy for him.

learning the answer OF the Car 70 the tasr
proposition offered by Japan through President
roosevelt Though very guarded in his Ian
grase' he made IT quite plain after his talk ac
sasamore HILL that Japan has made all the
concessions TO Russia that she deemed con-
sistent with justice. and If peace is the result
rrom the Portsmouth negotiations the Cars
ENJOYS must agree to the terms laid down.

walked through the station to reach Acting Sec
retary Barnes's carriage. which was awaiting
him. Baron Kaneko asked his opinion Of the
outlook for peace
1T is like the weather" he said, pointing I'D
at the weeping clouds.
What do you think OF Count LamsdorfCs
statement in which he declares that Russia
will neither pay cent OF indemnity nor give
an inch of territory TO Japan?'
Il think he is making a mistake" the Baron
replied.
DO you think it Is blun?"
We'll. it seems TO be official. so I suppose va
will have to swallow it, he said as he climbed
into the carriage
After Baron Kaneko returned to the station
from his visit to the Presidents home he fur
ther explained Japan's attitude.
Why should we make any more conces@
sons?" he asked Have we not done every
thing that could be expected OF US? Up to date

is $500 O00O 600. The papers say that we offer TO

DO you think it will be peace or war, Baron? 80
1T looks like deadlock" ne replied.
Then you think there is no chance OF an
agreement
"Oh. how can tell" he exclaimed "To-da Vi

Baron KaneNo then changed the subject to the

he said You can write things that will make
peace or war. Why don't you go back to your.
offices and write for peace?"

sharges against the three mer.
Mr.. Beach said tonight that Holmes who has
been away from Washington for some time will
be here tomorrow morning to answer TO the
Indictment.
Section 54i0 Of the Revised Statutes, under
which Holmes is indicted, and which 1t is
derstood forms the gravamen of the charge
against the three men, provides that if two or
more persons conspire either 20 commit any Of
fence against the United States to defraud

port of the Secret Service agents, said he be-
came acquainted with Holmes IN NeW-York IN

ton from time to time, for several months in ad-
vance of the publication of official figures, and
that the information furnished by Holmes cor
responded exactly with the figures afterward
published the official crop report
After the submission of the report OF the Sc

missed, and later the testimony taken by them
was turned to the Department of Justice

VI. Witte, H07cerer, Does Not Think
Future Bright.

(Froul a Special Correspondent Of The Tribune1
Portsmouth, NJ H.. Aug. 25.-"The door Of
p.ace is still open, but ] cannot say that the
future seems bright. Really, there has been no
change in the situation during the last twenty
four hours The two cable dispatches which
received last niqht from ST. Petersburg did not
alter the situation in the slightest
This brief statement. made by NJ Witte this
evening, practically sums. up the news at Ports
mouth. St Petersburg. Toxic and Oyster Bay
having become for the time the real news
fountains.
Speaking privately. Nj. Witte and Minister
Takahira both expressed the opinion that the
negotiations would fail NJ. Witte has even
said that he believed the next meeting OF the
plenipotentiares would be the last No definite
decision regarding the next meeting has been
reached NJ. Witte has suggested that the con-
ference convene at $50 o'clock tomorrow morn
ing. Baron Komura replied that 3 o'clock to-
morrow afternoon might do as well. 1t Is also
possible that the next session will be postponed
until Tuesday.
The sensation of the day has been the denial
of the Lamsdorff Interview. which denial has
served TO throw doubt over all news cabed
from ST Petersburg. The reported reply of the
Car TO Ambassador Meyer has drawn from
the Japanese a protest against the suggestion
that they entertain the slightest desire for fresh
territorial eOnquests, and they emphasize the
fact that the war grew out Of Russia's repudi-
ated promises, and that even they seek
only TO recover the cost of that war and an
insurance against a repetition by Russia OF the
aggressive policy which forced the war
