FLEETS START DELAYED.
TO GO FOR JONESS BODY
Rumor That Change of Orders Has
Craze Significance.

The departure from this port for France of
the second squadron of the North Atlantic fleet,
which was planned for to-day, has been post
poned. The armored cruiser Brooklyn, Admiral
Sigsbees flagship, sIgnaled notice of indefinite
postponement to the protected cruisers Tacoma,
Chattanooga and Galveston yesterday at Tomp-
kinsville, and many of the officers and men took
shore leave.
Admiral sigsbee conferred yesterday with
Navy Department officials and Acting Secretary
of State Loomis about his trip to France to
bring back the body CT John Paul Jones' Cap
tain Winslow was detailed to act with Admiral
Sigsbee in preparing programme for the trip.
but they had not gone far when it was found
impossible to act at this distance, and inforna-
tion is awaited from France Admiral Slgsbee
reported to the department that his entire
squadron was ready to start at The date
of departure will be delayed until decision is
reached whether the French government will
deliver the body al Havre or Cherbourg.
The Brooklyn will bear the body across the
Atlantic. While Admiral Sigsbee's flagship was
in the navy yard mahogany catafalque, built
at the yard, was placed on the port side of the
gun deck aft. The big catafalque has been made
fast, and the leaden coffin containing the body
will be placed in it.
The trip to France will take thirteen days.
The Brooklyn could easily reach Cherbourg in
seven days. but she will proceed slowly because
of the slow speed of the protected cruisers. Ihe
squadron will remain in French waters ten days.
One of the officers suggested last night that
the Russian government may be offended at
President Roosevelt's decision that the dfsa bled
warships Aurora, Jemchug and Oleg be interned
at Manila, and that complications may arise n
the Far East involving the United States.
1t was also observed that trouble might occur
between the United States and Germany because
of the latter power having secured as stra-
tegic base in the Caribbean the coalng station
at Water Island, st. Thomas
1T is possible that orders similar to those SEM
to us have been sent to all our warships within

was as seriously defeated as Admiral RoJest-
vensky's has been. occurred. On July 26 NJ.
Cambon the French Ambassador, called at the
White House and submitted to President Nc
kinley note inviting the United States TO state
the terms on which it would be willing to make
peace. On July 80 formal reply was handed
TO the French Ambassador in Washington. and
on August 10 the Ambassador returned with the
reply of the Spanish government. 1t was not,
however until August II that the peace proto-
col was finally signed, the French Ambassador
having full authority to sign for Spain. I'M
mediately orders were given to cease hostlities.
although it was not until three days later that
the battle of Manila was fought which was due
to the fact that Admiral Dewey had cut the
cable from Manila and the Presidents instruc-
tions could not sooner be conveyed to the forces
in the Philippines.
From this it will be seen that four days
elapsed between Spain's request for terms of
peace and the formulation of reply by the
United States. and that another period Of thir-
teen days elapsed before the actual signing Of
the peace protocol-a period in which several
poyrparlers were exchanged between Spain and
this country, always through the channel of the
French government and Ambassador CambOn.
Information received from Toxic to-day was
to the effect that no peace terms had been de-
termined on even by the Japanese Emperor.
IL
DAYS before either France or the United States
can make definite replies to the Cars request
for information 1t is obvious, however. that no
time will be lost, if the President can effect any
saving and it is believed that from now on the
peace negotiations will move at reasonably
rapid Pace
The Japanese Minister called at the White
House this evening, hoping to receive some Of
fetal confirmation of the rumors which are in
general circulation in the diplomatic corps, but
the President was unable to furnish the desired
information.
It is explained that the officials of the State
Department believe it would require consider
able time for Ambassador Meyer to put his
communication in cipher, as it would contain
precise expressions of some length, and this
necessity doubtless accounts for the apparent
delay in receiving it.
Mr. Takahira remained at the White House
only twenty-five minutes. and then returned to
his legation presumably to advise his govern
ment of the confidence expressed in Washing
ton that the Car had taken steps to ascertain
the terms on which peace could be made.

visit to Tsarskoe-Selo. the mission with which
he is charged, or the Emperor's response. The
Foreign Office is deserted this being the En-
presss birthday. There are. nevertheless. some
collateral indications that the Emperors re-
sponse was favorable.
The centre of interest is again transferred
back to Washington. It will. however probably
require some little time finally to decide
whether success shall crown the Presidents ef-
forts to end the war.
The fact of Ambassador Meyers visit to
Tsarskoe-Selo is up to the present known only
in the higher official circles many diplomats
being entirely unaware of it, but where it is
known however, it has created intense interest.
The sudden retirement OF the French Foreign
Minister. NJ. Decasse. who regarded as not
only one of the strongest supporters of the Dual
Alliance but as one OF the stanchest friends Of
Russia was great blow TO Russia and rendered
President R6osevelt's friendly tender particu-

forth in these dispatches last night, that the
Emperor has been strongly advised, if he de-
cided to open peace negotiations. to do so
through President Roosevelt

there is not the slightest surface indication of

fFROM TRIBUNE BUREAU
Washington, June 1.-Washington is confident
this evening that the RussoJapanese war is
over. 1t is appreciated, of course that some de-
lay may ensue before the signing OF peace
protocol actually terminates hostilities. The
opinion is further entertained that President
Roosevelt5 frank representations to the Rus
sian Ambassador. together with his expressed
willingness to aid Russia in this crisis to the
full extent of his ability, have largely contrib
uted TO the desire of the Gar to end the I'M
equal struggle in the Far East,
While the report that the Russian Ambassa-
dors in Washington and Paris have been in
structed TO ascertain the terms which Japan
will be willing make peace lacks official con-
tirmatiOn, 1t is generally accepted as correct
and the official announcement is expected III the
morning. 1t is regarded natural that Russia
should request the good offices of France. as her
closest friend, to invite an expression of peace
terms from Japan, and it is believed that the
manifested good will of the President of the
United States, together with the friendly rela-
tions ne is known to sustain toward Japan, has
led TO his being requested TO exercise his good
Offices TO secure the best possible terms from
Japan.
For several days some definite reply to the
Presidents representations to Count Casslnl
has been anxiousy awaited at the White
House and it was assumed that the attitude OF
the Gar would be conveyed through tne tuS-
sian Ambassador to Washington, until it was
learned early this morning that late last night
Ambassador Meyer had been summoned to a
conference with Count LamsdorH, the Russlah
Foreign Minister at which arrangements were
made fer an audience to be granted TO TIE
American Ambassador by the Car to-day 1t

that Russia is desirous of learning Japan's peace

The efforts that President Roosevelt has been
making to bring the beligerents together en-
tered on a distinctly new phase last night. The
Foreign Minister, Count Lamsdorff, was received
in audience by the Emperor in the afternoon on
the subject of Ambassador Cassini's communi-

Mover called on Count Lamsdorff at the Chan
couarv and remained with the Foreign Minister
for some time Whether this visit was on the
invitation of Count Lamsdorff, or at the request
Of the Ambassador, cannot definitely be stated,
but it is believed that the visit was in obedience
to instructions from Washington. conveying a

The result was that to-day Mr.. Meyer went
to Tsarskoe-Selo in full uniform and was re-
ceived in special audience by the Emperor. On
his return to ST Petersburg this afternoon Mr.
Never hastened TO the Embassy, whence he sent
long cipher dispatch to Washington. Half
an hour later he was closeted with Sir Charles
Hardinge the British Ambassador.

In taking an appeal to the district
court from an order Of Judge Hassel of
the county court in granting drug
gist's permit to T. l.. Williams, the
temperance people of Larimore, who
opposed the issuance of the permit,
will make an effort to show that Judge
Hassell was without jurisdiction, the
Grand Forks county court being with
out increased jurisdiction. They con-
tend that the county court has juris-
diction only in probate matters, and
it is likely that the supreme court will
be called upon in the Williams case to
decide the matter.
Some years ago the same question
vas raised before Judge Cowan of the
Second judicial district, and he held
that the probate court had no jurisdic-
ton in the granting or issuance OF
druggists permits. The case was new

has never passed on the question.
There are half a dozen counties in

has been defeated by the voters on
