All Obstacles to
Settlement Are
Eliminated.
Question Of Displaying,
Union Button Left
to Employers.
Terms of the Owners Associa-
tion Are Satisfactory
to the Men.

CHICAGO, June 23.-All the obstacles
which have prevented an ending of the
teamsters' strike appear TO have been
eliminated and the indications tonight
are that unless something unforeseen de-
velops hostilities between the opposing
interests will cease within short time.
At a meeting to-day between the COM
mittee representing the strikers and ].
Y. Farwell for the Employers Associa-
ton, the question of a conspicuous dis
play of the union button, which has been
opposed by the employers during the
peace negotiate was settled. This
question is to be left to the employers
individually, the association agreeing to
withdraw the demand for the elimination
of the union emblem. AS the button
proposition has been the chief stumbling
block during the latest efforts to reach
peaceable settlement of the difficulty,
it is the general belief that the trouble
is drawing to a close, as all the other
terms of settlement made by the employ
ers have been accepted by the officials
representing the strikers During the
meeting with Farwell, the subcommittee
of the Teamsters'. Union assured the en-
ployers' representative that his terms of
settlement would be satisfactory to the
men, but that the result of the meeting
would have to be reported to the general
committee before any official action could
be taken.
Arrangements were made with Farwell
to meet representatives of the general
committee, when, according to the labor
leaders, the settlement of the strike will
be completed with the exception of TAX
ing a referendum vote by the strikers On
the proposition.

MORE CHARGES
AGAINST HILL

PHILADELPHIA. June 23.-For the Sec
ond time this week John w. Hill, former
chief of the Bureau of Filtration, was
arrested to-day on charges of forgery
and Justification of certain books and
papers for the purpose Of defrauding the
city Of Philadelphia.
After hearing lasting nearly six hours
he was held in $1,000 bail for trial. His
Arrest to-day was a great surprise, COM
ing so closely on top Of his statement of
innocence Of forgery and Justification of
records, on which charges he was held
in $4,000 bonds on Wednesday.
The principal witness against Hill was
s.. @. Garrett, former emploYe Of the
Filtration Bureau. Evidence was pro-
duced tending to show that estimates Of
the work done by Daniel J. McNichol, a
contractor, were padded and that the
city was defrauded out of about $40 900.
Counsel for the defense claimed that the
evidence produced did not prove Hill
guilty OF the offenses charged.
There were many rumors afloat to-day
that as a result Of the arrest Of Hill
other persons Of prominence in municipal
affairs will be arrested, but up to late
tonight nothing developed. Mayor
Weaver to-day decided on special ses-
sion of city councils to take up the mat
ter of city finances and to consider pro-
positions for the removal. of dangerous
railroad grade crossings.

from the headquarters of the Japanese
armies in Manchuria:
In the vicinity of Yingecheng June 81
thousand of the enemys infantry
pressing our scouts advanced, and when
they reached Hsiangyangcheu, ten miles
southeast of Wankautzkeau, our forces
repulsed them with heavy loss and pur-

After our force, which occupied
Yangnulintzu June 19, had completed
their mission they returned.
The enemy. consisting of three bat

guns, advanced through the eastern
districts of the Kirin road and moved
southward June 81. From 1880 in the

WASHINGTON, June 23-Mr. Taxa
hira, the Japanese Minister, returned to
Washington this afternoon from a visit
of several days in New England. and
called at the White House tonight
where he was received by the President
and remained for three-quarters of an
hour. The Minister would have nothing
to say about this conference or about the
situation at this time beyond remarking
that some matters must be settled
first" The fact that the Minister could
give no assurances regarding an armis-
tice prior to the convening of the peace
conference tends to confirm the belief in
official circles here that little headway
has been made by the President in this
direction. Up to a late hour this after
noon the Russian reply to the President 8
suggestion regarding an armfstice had not
been received, and until this reply is re-
ceived the result of this phase Of the
negotiations cannot be known.
In view Of tne fact that the President
has thus far addressed himself simulta-
neously to both belligerent powers there
Is a disposition to believe that Mr.. Taxa
hira may have brought to the White
House tonight an expression of Japan S
views upon an armistice in response to
clash would not precede the conference.
1t has all along been understood that ia
pan would be unwilling to grant an ar
mistice at this time unless thoroughly as
sured that Russia was seriously desirous
of peace. Whether such assurances have
been forthcoming is not known.
1t is learned through official sources
that, owing to the illness of Count Lams-
dorff, the Russian Foreign Minister, there
has been a slight check to the negotia-
tions. 1t is specifically stated, however,
that this does not imply that there has
been any hitch, but simply that the ne
gotiations have been unavoidably delayed
for the reason given.
Count Cassini had a long consultation
with Secretary Hay at the latter's resi-
dence, but the visit was primarily per-
sonal one, and no decision regarding the
negotiations was reached. Secretary Hay
left this afternoon for his summer home
at Lake Sunapee, N. H.

NEW YORK. June 23.-When Marathon
Montrose Ramsey. professor of languages
of the Leland Stanford Jr. University,
stepped to the bar in Jefferson Market
Court to-day to answer charge of
"vagrancy" he presented a sorry spec
tacle.
Detective Sergeant Fogarty, who ar
rested Ramsey on Thursday on the floor
of the Produce Exchange, quickly
changed the complaint to one of insanity.
Ramsey was then taken to the Bellevue
Hospital to await the arrival of two phy-
sicians from Baltimore. who were inter-
ested in discovering his whereabouts in
New York.
Magistrate Baker had familiarized him
self with the sad romance of Ramsey S
life during the past three months and he
did not keep the prisoner before him
longer than he could help.
The only reference Ramsey made to his
plight was the remark: This Is all a
farce, all a farce"
Ramsey was unkempt and unshayen.
There were deep lines in his face and his
complexion was sallow. His clothes were
untidy and worn. He left California three
months ago After that his friends lost
all trace of him. His wife was Agnes
ternational American Conference, whom
he married in 1899. He had little money
when he reached New York. Ambition
seemed to have deserted him, for he did
not apply the talents with which he was
equipped Instead he drifted from one
part of the city to another always lower,
until he finally served beer in cheap res
taurants in the Bowery, according TO the
reports made to the police. He lived In
lodging-h houses and when work was slack
in the restaurants he is said to have
carried baggage.

BOTH COUNTRIES WAITING.
Russia and Japan Appear Unwilling to
Show Their Hands.

Show Their Hands.
ST PETERSBURG, June 23-There is
not likely to be any further move in the
direction of an armistice until the pleni-
potentiaries are appointed and the place
of their meeting definitely fixed Japan
seems unwilling to discuss any new issue
until these two questions are settled. This
does not necessarily mean that all hope of
arranging a suspension of hostilities be-
fore the meeting has disappeared, but as
an indication of Japan's mood it increases
the doubt as to whether she could be In
duced to relinquish temporarily the stra-
tegic advantages which she evidently be-
lieves she enjoys. Indeed, 1t might raise
the suspicion of sparring for time until
Field Marshal Oyama has developed his
offensive and is actually in progress OF
delivering his blow, when Japan could
easily plead that It was too late. The
delay In settling the matter OF the pleni-
potentiaries is, therefore, all the more
deplored by those desiring to avoid fur
ther bloodshed Both countries seem per-
fectly willing to name negotiators. but
each evidently desires the other to show
its hand first.
On account of Foreign Minister Lams-
dorff's illness ambassador Meyer was un-
able to have a personal interview with
him either yesterday or to-day, but 1t is
believed that communications from
Washington are passing in writing. 1t
appears that Count Lamsdorff has had a
touch of heart trouble and his physician
again to-day forbade him to leave his
room, but promised to allow the Minis
ter to go to the Chancellory tomorrow.
Count Lamsdorff's illness naturally has
created much gossip to the effect that he
is about to retire and M. Muravieff, Rus
sian ambassador to Rome, and M. Is
wolski, Minister to Copenhagen, are
named as his probable successors, but as
vet there is no evidence that the rumors
have more foundation than those of sim
liar character which preceded them. s
There is strong reason for saying that
the Russian plenipotentiaries will include
a military man of high rank, though as
yet there is no clew to his identity, ex-
cept that it will not be General Kuropat-
kin. The downfall of Admiral Alexieff
and the suppression of the Far Eastern
committee materially increases the likeli-
hood that NJ Witte will also represent
Russia, since he is an inveterate enemy
of the war cabal,' who now seem defin-
itely to have fallen under imperial dis
favor. M. Witte had long audience
with the Emperor on Tuesday.
A prominent Russian statesman who is
convinced that peace will be the outcome
OF the Washington meet, said to-day:
Japan surely cannot longer doubt the
sincerity of the Emperor's desire to con-
clude peace Admiral Alexieffs retire
ment marks the final rout of the war
party. For Japan to refuse an armistice
and force another big battle now would
