statesman Who Talks

Some people imagine that : real
diplomat or statesman seldom talks,
and when he does bis words are d
doubtful meaning. Governor HoCh
Of Kansas Is one Of the statesmen who
talk. He recently went east, and Of
course the eastern papers are now
sizing Rim up from his talks. Here
10 what the New York Evening Post
has to say Of the Kansas executive!
/ Governor Hoch's comments on
things and men seen during biz visit
to the east are doubtless intended to
bs as corrective to Washington aud
Philadelphia as they certainly are

governor commended Mayor Viewers

in time, Philadelphia would be as
clean as the state administration at
Topeka. BE, too, had been confront

Of cleaning II was already finished.

Whipped, bankrupt and threatened

Oyster Bay, Aug, ga crisis in
! the peace negotiations is approaching
rapidly. Whether there is to be peace
between Russia and Japan, or con-
tinuance Of the war will be determined
very likely within a few days.
Since he made his direct appeal 70
Emperor Nicholas, President Roosevelt
has been awaiting developments, hope
full that such efforts as he has felt
proper to make to avert failure Of
the Washington conference might not
be futile. Thursday these develop
ments began to appear. A report from
Ambassador Meyer at st. Petersburg
of his audience with Emperor Nicholas
was received and in addition some
important advices from Portsmouth
reached the president, They were re-
garded as so urgent that as soon as
they were received in the executive
office in the village they were carried
to Sycamore Hill by trusted exec
utive clerk. ats,.., Is j. ii.

come public. qfi1a9l VIA .s.Is
It IL quite certain now that In add
ton to making q direct appeal to the
Russian emperor to take such meas
ures as may bring the pending nego-
tiations to a successful issue, President
Roosevelt has communicated with the
Japanese government along similar
lines. Whether that appeal was made
to the emperor Of Japan. as In
the case OF Emperor Nicholas. cannot

representatives might come together
and settle their differences themselves
Since the ENJOYS assembled in Amer
lea, in an effort to carry out the pres
ident's suggestion, he has followed in
spirit and In principle the ideas he
enunciated in his identical note.
In the negotiations preliminary to
the conference the president acted in
the capacity of an intermediary be-
tween Russis and Japan. When the
plenipotentiaries arrived In America
and were. received by the president,
he assured them that they would be
free absolutely from interference in
their deliberations. He made It clear
to them at the same time, that, II he
could be Of any assistance to them In
the accomplishment Of their great mis-
sion, that assistance would be extended
gladly in any proper effort to resolve
their differences. .'.,
The presidents offer was appreci-
ated to the, full by the conferees, and
later. they availed themselves of 1t.
Moved by a profound desire to restore
peace, the president has lent his good
Offices to the Representatives OF both

UNJOINTS NECK BY SNEEZE.
Phompt Surgical Attendance Saves
Sufferers Life.

PAWTUCKET, r. l., Aug. 1S.-
Jamse Coyle of No. 759 Lonsdale ave-
nue. sneezed his neck out of joint while
at breakfast and would have died but
for prompt surgical attendance. When
he felt the sneeze coming he turned
his head to the left. The sneeze came
but Coyle remained with his head
over his shoulder, and began to utter
inarticulate cries.
He had sneezed so hard that his
vertebra was out of joint. A slight
blow would have broken his neck.
Doctors were hastily sent for. They
came and gave Coyle's head a sudden
twist. His head fell back into its
socket and Coyle felt no ill effects,
although the surgeons say he would
have died had his neck remained out
of place half hour.
