Eardlng the disappear rance OF Miss Rogers

young woman's address or any informa-

make thorough Investigation.
Judge Strong issued John Doe"
subpoena for Smith. and the latter, re-.
spending, told the story of his Giants
life. He said that Miss Rogers for the
last three years had suffered with an
acute stomach trouble, and had recently
met With financial reverses, although she
was still wealthy.

Attorney Coates who was acting for D.s-
.trict Attorney Finn. She had known
Miss Rogers but month, during which
time the knowledge tn II she was afflicted

through the official paper, which is edited
for the army, make the conditions under
which the proposed peace is to be reached
very inadvertently Understood.
In consequence Of events at Washing
ton, a military initiative for an armisticc
had been expected, but although General
Linevitch and General IIuropatkn express
the conviction that Russia is drifting to-
ward peace. no action looking to an
atmistice has yet been taken. On
the conlyary, the commanders appear to
regret that at the time when the army
has reached its maximum strength, Is Is
likely to he deprived of victory.
Numerous small bodies Of Japanese
scouts have appeared in the regions Of
either Russian flank, and It Is feared
that they were intended to screen the
turning operations Of the Japanese, as
before the battle of Mukden.

have been already begun. but the Rus

Mr.. Cabell's address was chaste and
