MAYOR WEAVER CAUSES STILL ANOTHER ARREST
FORMER CHIEF OF THE FILTRA- TION BUREAU TAKEN INTO
 CUsTODY.

 In the City-Accused of Forging and
 FaIsifying Certain Books and Papers

 AnnuIs s700.OOO Contract for suppIy-

 Philadelphia. June 2O--The arrest of
 John ". Hill, who resigned last week as chief of the bureau of filtration, on the charge of forgery and faisifying certain books and papers belonging to
 the city and the annulment of a s7oo,- 600 contract held by D. J. McNichol &
 Co. were the dramatic developments to-
 day in Philadelphia's sensational polit- ical upheaval. Hill entered bail in the sum of S10,O0O for hearing tomorrow
 morning. An interesting feature of the
 case is that Stuart Wood of the firm of R- D. Wood & Co, which concern has furnished iron piping for the flltra- ton system. who is member of the committee of seventy which is fighting the republican organization, became
 Hills bondsman The arrest of Hill is the third that has occurred in connec- tion with the city contracts since the mayor began his fight for municipal res form
 The arrest of former Chief Hill was not surprise, as 1t had been rumored for several days that he would be taken into custody on charges to be preferred by the mayor.
 Former Chief Hill received d salary |of 1000 a year, the. highest compen- sation received by any city employe. So we'll did Mayor Weaver think of him that last April he urged city councils to raise his salary from $12,000 to ST, GOO. With the political upheaval Mayor Weaver began an investigation of ali bureaus, with the result that Chief TiilI resigned last week. The resembling of l the $700,00O contract held by D. U. Mo- Nichol & co. caused consternation in l political circles. In revoking the con- tract the mayor notified the director of public works to immediately take steps to advertise for bids for the work and material remaining to be done and sup iplied. The contract held by lIcNichol
 < Co. was for furnishing filter sand land gravel Up to date $213, AFT has been paid forwork done under the con- tract. The McNichol firm sublet all of the work to James Caven & Son. Last week Councilman Frank H. Caven, of l the latter firm, was arrested for violat- ing his councilmanic oath in being in- Iterested in city contracts.

HARVARD DIsGUsTED.
Tugs for Second Time Interrupt a
 TSssse R0.-. @

1Sss.e ROw.
 Red Top, Gales Ferry, June 20- Much to the disgust of Coach Wray and Captain Filley the time row of the Harvard varsity eight was interrupted to-day by the wash churned up by some tugs which were encountered at the lower end of the course. Precisely the same thing happened several days ago when the varsity and freshman eights were racing over the course. To-day the varsity managed to cover three and a half miles before the rough water compelled them to stop, and they did it in IS minutes, F seconds. This was not fast time, as the river sur face was smooth for most of the dis tanee and the wind and tide favorable. It was noticeable that when the stroke went above 2S to the minute the boat was unsteady and the time ragged.
 It had been expected that the fresh men would race the varsity for the first two miles, but for some reason the plan was changed and the fresh men went ou talone. They did a half mile in 2 minutes, 30 seconds, the men rowing well together, and not hanging on'' as much as the varsity men.
 The varsity four-oar had hard eight-mile row during the morning, and therefore were not called out for prac- tice this afternoon. In the morning row, the boat covered two miles against the watch in ii minutes and 40 seconds. As the conditions were favorable the time was slow. The boat lurched badly.

The Yale varsity eight went over the four mile course against the watch this evening, but the coaches declined to give out the time, conining thenn- selves to the statement that the boat was. not as fast as last years Yale crew was at this stage of the training. The freshmen eight went along with the varsity for the first two miles. and stopped at the navy yard only six or eight feet in the, rear of the other boat. The younger oarsmeI1, however, spurt- Eed near the end of the two miles, while the varsity men, saving their power for the longer distance, rowed a steady stroke. %4
 The varsity four-oar had their reg ular practice this afternoon On account of the disagreeabIe weather and college examinations, none of the crew had any morning practice.
 Captain Whittier tonight sent a tele- gram to President Roosevelt inviting him to stop at the Yale quarters on his way to Worcester tomorrow morn ing.

.LINETITCH BEGs GEAR.
Claims Victory is Near--Does Not Wish to Lose Opportunity ...,

St. Petersburg, June 21..--2:15 a. m. Diplomatic measures for the peace conference are continuing in the face of the steady pressure brought to bear by the militant factions. Lieutenant General Linevitch has again wired the
 emperor saying that victory is almost
 at hand, and begging that he and his
 army be not deprived of the oppor-
 tunity to restore the prestige of Rus- sian arms. 5'ss.s. Minister of War Sakharoff had an au-
 dience yesterday with the emperor at scented to his majesty measures for an-
 other mobilization of troops and urged the advisability of their adoption. General Linevitcl1's S telegram seems to confirm the indications that negotia- tions for an armistice are not pro-
 ceeding between the Russian and Jap-
 anese commanders.
 Grand Duke Alexis, who is going abroad soon, and Vice Admiral Chouk- min, commander of the Black sea fleet, who it is thought will be chosen to succeed Admiral Avellan as head of
 the admiralty department, also were re- ceived by the emperor at Peterhof yes- l terday. Admiral Chouknin reported on
 the condition of the Black sea fleet and | also offered suggestions for the naval programme which is under considera- | tion. It is said that the emperor is con- templating the appointment of a conn mission headed by Vive Admiral Biri- Jeff to formulate a programme in the | light of the lessons taught by Russian naval development in the past quarter of a century and of the experience of other nations. Admiral Birileff is emil
 nentIy qualified to head such a commits
 sion, as he probably is the best expert
 in naval construction in the Russian service.

TO APPEAR IN COURT TO-DAT'
Mrs. Rogers Will be Presented Before Justice Wheeler.


 Windsor, Vt, June Ex-Governor Charles J. Bell, Sheriff Henry H. Peck and Superintendent W. s. Lowell, of the state prison, were in conference for several hours this afternoon with ref erence to the arrangements for the ap- pointed execution. on Friday, of Mrs. Mary M. Rogers.
 Superintendent Lowell stated tonight that he had been ordered by United States Marshal Bailey to produce Mrs. Rogers before ustice H. H. Wheeler at I2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon at the Windsor courthouse. Sheriff Peck re- ceived a similar notification. At this hearing to-morrow counsel for Mrs. Rogers will present reasons in his ha- beas corpus proceedings why the con- demned woman should be permanently released from prison. Should the court refuse to grant the writ permanently lit is considered likely that an appeal will be taken to the United States su- preme court.
 Attorney E. B. Finn called upon Mrs. Rogers to-day and explained to her the various parts of the writ which had been issued in the case. MT. Finn told Mrs Rogers that there was some hope that the court would grant a postponement of the execution. This information came at a time when the woman was suffering greatly from an operation upon her teeth, and relieved a night and morning which were mark ed both by mental distress and physi- cal pain.
 | After the conference this afternoon it was stated that nothing more defi- mite would be fixed upon until after the court hearing tomorrow.

BIG FIRE IN WEST HAVEN
NoTELTK TYRE CoMPANT,s BUILDING BADLY DAMAGED.

Loss Will Probably Reach s1o,oo0--
 Building Was Formerly the Big Barn
 of aihe Waddingham Estate-Brilliant
 Illumination Lights Up sky--Com-
 pany Manufactured Buck1es--Ca -Cause
 of Fire Unknown.
 One of the flercest and most spectac- uIar fires that West Haven has had in many moons was that which broke out
 shortly after o'clock in the engine
 room Of the shop occupied by the Wire
 Novelty company The building occu- pied by the company is the large brick
 barn belonging to the old Waddingham estate and is situated on the former
 Waddinghan property. The building is in considerable distance from Elm street and is located between Third and Fourth avenues. The burned
 building is owned by Senator James
 Graham of West Haven and the Wire
 Novelty company, which is chiefly con- cerned in the manufacture of buckles. and has for it's heads Thomas Healy of
 Elm street and Fourth avenue and
 John Donlkee. The fire originated in the engine room. a wooden addition to the main building The cause of the fire is not known. The alarm was sent in from box 43 at Wood street and Fourth ave- nue at about 9:30 o'clock and a second
 alarm quickly followed, surnmoning all three West Haven fire companies to the scene.
 The wooden engine room burned rap- idly and lit up the scene most brilliant ly. So bright was the illumination that ! the reflection of 1t in the sky could be seen in the city. The odor of burning
 wood was borne on the night air for a long distance. Luckily the wind was light so that the fremen did not have that to contend with. The flames ate up the engine room and spread quickly to the main building Despite the best efforts of the West Haven fire laddies the building was pretty badly gutted. | This part of the shop was of brick with a slate roof which helped to check the flames. The second floor suffered most | from the fire, but the entire structure was thoroughly water soaked.
 The building was filled with consid- Eerable machinery which suffered feav- lily from fire and water. The office was not much damaged. Of the engine | little but the engine and charred re- mains of the structure remain.
 A large crowd gathered about the fire and witnessed a spectacle of flame such as is not often seen, especially during the early part of the fire. The fire resembled an enormous bonfire. | Senator Graham, the owner of. the lproperty was in Hartford last evening. 1 Mir. Healey, the head of the firm, re- fused to be interviewed. < | The loss will be about $10,0o0, and 1t ! is understood that this is covered by insurance. The concern employed about 100 persons, many of them Won- en. It is said that they have been quite
 busy having recently worked nights
