UGLY FIGHT INDICATED
Between Administration and
the Railroads.
REPUBLICAN LEADERS
ANXIOUS OVER THE HARMON
JUDsoN COMPLICATION.
Democrats Hope to Make Political
Capital Out of 1.-THE Cincinnati
Shippers Complaint.

Indications are increasing of an ugly fight
between the administration and the rail-
roads and the situation promises to present
some irritating problems to the President
and his advisers. Not only Is the main
question Of railroad rate legislation still at
stake, but there are several minor issues
which are likely to be about as CO nforting
as spring carbuncle
The politicians are awaiting with some
anxiety the outcome of the Santa Fe case
with the added complication of the dispute
between the Department Of Justice and At
torneys Harmon and Judson. Republicans
assume. of course. that the President and
Attorney General Moody see their way clear
to satisfactory solution of this difficulty,
but 1t Is only rejecting the actual feeling
to say that republican political leaders will
be very much relieved when the satisfac-
tory statement is made and accepted by the
public.
Democrats Hope for Political Capital.
Among democratic politicians the belief
is pronounced that they will be able to
make political capital out Of the Santa Fe
affair and they are awaiting the forthcom-
ing statement from the administration with
anxiety mingled with hope 1t is known
II
Is following this case with close attention
with the view of bringing 1t up in Con-
gress next session If it promises good po-
litical pickings.
The complaint addressed to the admins
tration by the Cincinnati Shippers Asso-
citation against the railroads doing busi-
ness in the southern territory will be
pushed by the complainants 1t is said
Thus far the Department of Justice has not
stated what steps will be taken in the
premises, and 1t is assumed that the de-
partment is looking into the charges.
Shippers May Act.
1t was said today in well informed quar-
tiers that If the department does not act
the Shippers Association will move on its
own account and bring the case into the
United Statese court.
The suggestion was made that perhaps
that would be course very acceptable to
the administration, as the administration
already has Its hands pretty full OF rail-
road fights.
But friends Of the administration scorn
that suggestion and insist that Attorney
General Moody will not hesitate to move If
he finds the complaint well taken, and
that the fact Of there being several full
grown contests with the railroads on hand
will not deter the administration from
undertaking another when necessary.
The railroads are preparing for trouble.
1t Is learned from railroad sources Of in
formation that the railway managements
realize they are facing a very serious sit
uation and that they have the fight Of
their life ahead Of them.

Folk. after comforting with Attorney Gen
eral Madley, sent a letter to Sheriff Herpel

to enable you to uphold the authority of
the state, the executive will furnish you

It is Thought That the President Win
Suggest an Armistice and That
It Will Be Accorded.

While the progress of the preliminary
negotiations for peace between the far
eastern belligerents is necessarily slow at
this stage of the proceedings. 1t Is known
that President Roosevelt hopes they prac-
tically may be closed before he goes to
Oyster Bay for the summer. His desire to
facilitate in every possible way the negotia-
tions induced him to reconsider his original
plan to go to Oyster Bay this week. After
his visit to Worcester and Williamstown,
Mass, where he will go to attend the COM
mencement exercises of Clark University
and Williams College, he will return to
Washington, arriving here next Friday
morning. 1t is expected that, If nothing
unforeseen shall have occurred in the
meantime, some definite announcement of
the status of the negotiations may be made
soon after his return. There is possibility
even, that the selection of the plenipoten-
tfaries of both Russia and Japan may be
announced before the President leaves to-

In close touch with the negotiations, said
last night:
What Europe does not seem TO realize is
that in these negotiations the President has
been dealing not with the war party in Rus
sia nor with Count Lamsdorff, but with En-
peror Nicholas direct. There is thorough
understanding between the President and
the emperor. the latter fully apprecating
the motives which prompted the Presidents
appeal for peace and sending in reply as
responsive an answer as he felt Russia could
afford to make. That Russia does not go
into the conference pledged to peace is fully
understood. but this does not mean that her
plenipotentiaries will not come clothed with
full powers TO negotiate peace. provided Ja-
pans terms be reasonable nor does 1t re-
feet in any way upon the sincerity with
which Russia enters the conference"
