0VERTURES FOR PEACE.
REPORTS THAT RUSSIA WOULD
LISTEN TO JAPAN's PROPOSALS.
Diplomatic Opinions Over Situation Of
Eastern War Caused by Port
Arthur's Fall.

A cabiegram from Berlin last night de-
clares that the Grand Duke Nicholas
Mfchaelovitch, uncle of the car. was there
on Monday. and 1t is said that his mis-
SION was to ask the kaiser's friendly me-
CITATION between Russia and Japan.
"A cablegram from st. Petersburg says
tnat report was circulated in st. Peters
burg yesterday to the effect that an armis-
tlce Is assured before the end of the week.
At the foreign office it was said to q rep
fesentative of the Associated Press that
any proposals Japan might make would re-
ee1ve due consideration. though the OFF,
Gals were unable to imagine how it could
be possible for Japan to offer conditions
which Russia could accept.
Expect Japan to Act.
In spite of this. automatically the situa-
ton is extremely interesting. and In diplo-
matte circles it is regarded as certain that
Japan has awaited this moment to submit
proposals for peace. and that she intends
to do so through the United States. In
PREVENTION or even the offer of good Of
fces by the United States without the re-
quest of Russia is not admitted to be
possible, and it is known that France will
not act in such capacity But direct
proposals from Japan will be considered
The general opinion, however. is that COM

and With the present situation in the In
terror. it Is impossible for Russia to bow
to terms. even moderate ones. rendered by
Japan as a conqueror.
Believes Peace Impossible.
A diplomat who holds exceptionally close
relations with Russia said that he did not
believe peace was possible. adding:
If the war is to end 1t must be more
than peace. 1t must be complete under
standing between Russia and japan. al
most In the nature of an alliance covering
the far east. An ordinary peace which
might be ruptured in few years would
not be sufficient. Upon the basis of an
equtaoie alliance Russia possibly could
yield"
Is the Gear Weary of War?
cablegram from Paris says that, ac-
cording to trustworthy information. the
car is in a state of mystic irresoIution to
which a certain faith in spirtualism Is
not entirely foreign. He is swayed by DIFF
ferent influences. such for instance as that

zen, OF certain grand dukes and others who
appear to have completely paralyzed the
exercise of his will in these circumstances.
Ii Is Just possible the surrender of Port
Arthur may prove the precursor of peace,
although in the absence of precise infor-
nation it may be we'll not to be too san
guine.
There are some slight indications that the
car Is weary of war and is looking with
inpatience to the moment when he may
devote himself exclusively to the internal
affairs of the empire.

teachers find employment.
Oh these teachers five hold
state certificates, thirteen
first grades, So seconds, and
SO thirds. The interested
readerwillobserve that there
is still considerable room at
the top.
Since the last regular
examination in August six
teen special examinations
have been held and 40 GER
tificates granted, 80 of them
being third graaes. The
special examination is a
nuisance, but it seems to be
a necessary evil since over
one-third of the schools
would be without teachers
today had these examina-
tons not been held.
The next regular exami-
nation will be held at the
courthouse on Friday and

same food and in one case get twice the results from the other. If this can be done by the art of breeding and by that alone. why Is there no more attention paid to the business?
 Some Anay think the poultry busi- ness is a minor affair in this country. In this they are mistaken, even so far as Alabama is concerned. The great est pride Is. of course, in the West. But to illustrate the wonderful facts of the poultry occupation m the United States. take the entire poultry crop in 1905. It exceeds in the money value the entire cotton crop of America. This means that there was crop worth more than $500,00O,000. In Missouri alone the revenue derived. from the poultry crop that was shipped with out the State was $31. 100000, being no more than too-fifths of the whole pro- duction.
 The agitation in poultry enterprises is pretty much illustrated by the ar engagement just completed whereby ex- pert lecturers are to go on a tour from Auburn on January 9, and visit many towns of the State to hold farmers in- stitutes. Besides the poultrymen live stock, corn breeding and other agricul- tural authorities will accompany the party and a special car has been given to the undertaking. Dr. c. A. Cary, of Auburn will head the party
 The poultry show will continue in Montgomery until tomorrow.

New Roads for Country.


 It was announced today that the first of the new year would find work on at least two new county roads well under way.
 Two new steel bridges will also be New Year gift to the county. while work on eleven others will be finished within the next sixty days. The bridges which are practically com pleted are the Powderly bridge, on the road by the same name. and the struc- ture over Black creek on the old Jas per road.
 The first day of January will find over three hundred miles of old roads in good repair said Superintendent Haigler to a member of the board O. revenue at the county courthouse to day and will find us grading and macadamizing two absolutely new roads. By this I mean that they are being extended. and I have reference to the Avenue F road and the Monte vallo road. The first named is being extended from the city limits of Bir- minghan, on out through the country while the other runs from Elyton out by EImwood cemetery"
 Superintendent Haigler said that the masonry work on all of the thirteen new bridges is about completed, and that the steel framework of the two mentioned has been put in place. The steel for the other bridges is arriving daily. and he estimates the entire con- tract will have been completed by the first of February.

Captain of Oyster Dredge Boat Beat
 Crew Unmercifully.
 Baltimore, Dec. 20.-The witnesses in the case of Captain Levin T. Lewis of the oyster dredge boat Sadie Lewis, who was given a hearing today before United States Commissioner Rogers, on the charge of cruelty to members of his crew, were severe in their accusa- tions and as a result Captain Lewis was held in default of $3.000 bail for action of the Federal grand jury.
 The witnesses testified that they had been cruelty beaten by the captain from the time they put foot on board the Sadie Lewis until relieved from their bondage by the United States authorf- ties on board the revenue cutter Win dom.
 The testimony was also to the effect that white mate named Tom" and a colored second mate named George Att wood, were guilty of similar offenses. The two mates, 1t was testified. on one occasion beat one of the members of the crew almost into insensibility and that in his efforts to avoid further pun ishment, the man fell overheard and was drowned without any serious effort being made to save him. The crew consisted of ten men, all of whom testi- fled to acts of cruelty.
 Atwood, one of the mates, was brought to Baltimore on the Windom as a witness for the Government, but when the testimony against him de- veloped, a warrant for his arrest was sworn out at the instance of United States District Attorney John C. Rose, and he, too, was held.

The number of exhibitors the number of exhibits and the average excellence of the latter are pronounced higher than any which have marked previous shows Of It's kind in Alabama.
