l could see that there were other
questions which Holmes would have
wished to pu' but the nobleman's
abrupt manner showed that the inter-
view was at an end. 1t was evident
that to his intensely aristocratic ma
ture this discussion of his intimate
family affairs with a stranger was
most abhorrent and that he feared
lest every fresh question would throw
fiercer light into the discreetly
Swallowed corners OF his dncal history.
When the nobleman and his secre-
tary had left, my friend flung himself
at once with characteristic eagerness
into the investigation.

amined, and yielded nothing save the
absolute conviction that 1t was only

BARON ROSEN CALLS
 ON SECRETARY TAFT
PLANS ARE DISCUSSED FOR THE PROPOSED CONFERENCE AT THE HAGUE-RoosEvE MADE THE SUGGESTION.

Washington, October 5.--Baron Rosen, the Russian ambassador. today interview ed Secretary Root in reference to tho projected second conference of the powers at The Hague. He did so follwing a sug- gestion made to him by President Roose- welt short time ago.
 Baron Rosen stated today that the Rus- sian government has, while not sending out formal invitations for the second con- ference, caused the various signatory powers to be addressed in an informal manner with a view to ascertaining whether or not they were willing to &C., cept such an invitation should 1t be for mally rendered. The powers were also assured that President Roosevelt had given his hearty support to the project. Furthermore, steps were taken to secure the admission to the second conference of the South and Central American states. none of whom were represented at tho first conference. nor were allowed to sub sequently adhere to The Hague conven- ton.
 Now, the next step in order a sufficient number of favorable responses being as- sured, is the Issue of the formal invita- ton and the reception of formal accept ances It was on this last point that Baron Rosen talked with Secretary Root today, and 1t was arranged that the sec retary would in the near future draft a response to the Russian invitation. which will probably be the first of the responses and open the way for prompt action by all of the powers.
