M. WITTE ENROUTE.
French Papers Commend His Interview
 with the Associated Press.

Paris. July 2O.-M. Witte. who will arrive here at o'clock tomorrow af- ternOon, will be received soon after by President Loubet, who will leave Paris next Monday on his summer vacation at Rambouillet.
 The interview of the Associated Press on Monday with M. Witte con- tinues to be the chief subject of dis cussion among officials and diplomats and in the newspapers.
 The Temps (semi oficiaD devotes a colum leading article to it tonight pointing out the importance or the Russian statesman's declarations. The Temps says M. Witte's statement was most happy. recalling that he was q partisan of peace even before the war began, not a mere retrospective parti- san, but because he is now in bet ter position to restore peace than one who assisted in the rupture.
 Moreover" continues Temps "M. Witte's statement shows that war was not inevitable and that an observance of the wise cOunsels of M. Witte might have averted war. This. however, does not mean that M. Witte is resigned to make more cruel sacrifices than any other negotiator, as he is unable to make concessions beyond a point which the emperor himself has fixed"

MdRChurian Russians Want
 to Get at 0ydmd
ARE STRONGLY PORTED
They Believe Now if They Had a Chance They Could Turn the Tide of War. Discouraged by the Ap- pOintment of F. Witte.

Gunshu Pass July 2O.-S:nce a month ago, when the army was under the impression that it was about to advance. commanders have been much annoyed by talk of peace, but the ap- pOintment of M. Witte as 9enior peace plenipotentiary appears to have con vinced the commanders of the govern ment's determination.
 The Russian army rests as usual with cavalry Hanks slightly enveloping the Japanese, who remain within their defense Iiaes.
 A correspondent of the Associated Press has made a tour. through the mud and heat, paralleling the Japan csc position for a distance of seventy five miles. Their Qualifications on the first line bisect Changtufu on the rail- road and are growing daily. The in- dications are that it would cost a third or half of the Russian army to take them. while their second position of equal strength, is eleven miles far ther back, on the hills north of Kali yuan.
 Considerable confidence is evidenced in the strength and size of the Rus sian positions and an example of the military spirit of the superior officers is indicated in the following declara- ton to the correspondent Of the Asso- ciated Press by one of the leading com manders: q have 15O machine guns and also strong artillery. I have re ceived many men from Russia. All the infantry companies are 250 men strong and all the men are anxious to attack. Though the situation is very bad in Russia. the army will advance regardless of the disorders at home. It will fight one. two or three years, be- cause the end must be victory.
 "The army does not share the peace desires of the government which has never had a war so difficult as this But in spite of all difficulties victory it must be-"
 The army has demonstrated during the past three months the hostility in dicated by such utterances as the fore going, which are characteristic of the entire superior command.
 The Japanese advance from Korea is taking on a more energetic charac- ter and is being pushed toward Mou- san. Mangan and Hasagwa. The Jap anse seem to have received heavy re- Inducements from Oyama's main army. The landing of Japanese near Vladivostok will not be surprising, as their operations appear to be concen- trating in that direction.

The two re- publicans are said to have been seIec.- - ed by Governor Higgins and Senator Raines, the republican leader in the senate and Senator Riordan by the de- mocratic senators. The five assembly members Of the committee will be named by Speaker Nixon within the next day or two.
 Chairman Armstrong said tonight that while the actual hearings by the committee would probably not begin for some time, the preliminary prep arations, calculations and so on, nee essaTy in preparation for the inquiry would be set in motion as soon as pos sible and the organization of the com niittee would take place as soon as the assembly members had been appointed.
 The constitution of the committee followed hard upon message of Gov ernor Higgins to the legislature. which came as a complete surprise. The mes sage was received in the senate after the conclusion of the Hooker case and was not read in the assembly until late in the afternoon session. Its effect may he described as sensational
 Senator Armstrong introduced a re- solution for the appointment of a joint committee to investigate and examine into the business and affairs of life insurance companies doing business in the state of New York with reference to the investments of said companies, the relations of the officers thereof to such investments, the relations of such companies to subsidiary corporations. the government and control of said companies, the contractua1 relations Of said companies to their policy hold CTS, the cost of life insurance, the eX- Denses of said companies, and any other phases of the life insurance busi- ness deemed to be proper. for the pur- pose of drafting and reporting to the next session of the legislature such a revision of the laws regulating and re lating to life insurance in this state as said committee may deem proper. This was adopted by both houses. with an appropriation of S50,OO0.

THE BOYCOTT IS ON
A Distinct Chinese PrOnouHCement
 Against American Goods.

Washington, July 2O.-The depart ment of state has received a report from Samuel L. Gracey. American consul at Fuchau. China, of meeting had by Chinese merchants at Shan2- hai on May $, to discuss American ex- clusion laws and the Chinese boycott of American goods. The society most active in this matter was the Jen Ching (Man Mirror) Literary society of Shanghai. More than two hundred people attended, and adopted resolu- tions declaring that they would stop consuming or ordering American goods; that the natives who worked for American merchants or who were engaged in the transportation of Am erican goods would ask for higher wages; that the privileges given to the "Rehsing company for building a railway should he withdrawn, and that any Chinese merchant found to deal secretly in American goods not only would be fined. but socially boy cotted.

Failure of a Kansas City
 Bank Laid There
IT WAS ALREADY WEAK
And Gave Way Under the Weight of
 the Topeka Capitalists Paper-It is Apprehended that There Will be
 no Other Financial CataClysm.

Kansas City, July 2O.-The City Ma tional Bank failed to open it's doors this morning. The bank held the pa Der of C. J. Devlin of Topeka to the amount of upwards of S1OO.OOO
 The failure is the direct result of the closing of the First National Bank of Topeka of which Devlin was the prin- cipal stocbholder The City National was organized five years ago and is the youngest national bank in the city. It had a capital of $500. 900 and de- posits of $1.GOO.0 900.
 Up to the close of banking hours no furry affecting other local institutions had followed the failure of the City National Bank. Nothing bordering on a run was experienced at any of the other local banks and according to the officers at each place, none was expected.
 The City National had been in a weakened condition for some time. Its failure had been anticipated and therefore no surprise was shown in banking circles today when the an- nouncement was made that it had been taken in charge by National Bank Ex- aminer Ames.
 Neither MT. Ames nor the failed banks officials or it's attorneys were in position to make a definite state ment regarding the banks condition.
 The failure of the City National Bank of Kansas City was due in a great measure to the fact that it held upwards of $1OO,OOO of c. J. DevIin's paper, which is tied up in the recent failure of the First National Bank of Topeka of which MT. Devlin was the principal stock holder. The only other Kansas City bank that had held Dew lin paper was the American National C. $. Jobes. president of the AmerI- can National Bank stated today that s3O7 900 of Devlin paper held at the time of the Topeka failure had been purchased since then from the Amer ican National by it's directors.
 Thus it was stated there was no cause for run on tie American Na- tional. Indeed. it was announced by a member of the Kansas City clearing house that no other Kansas City bank would be permitted to fail in case of a run which was not expected, and that the large houses would gladly have aided the City National Bank had it not been for the latter carrying so much bad paper.
 The Citizens Bank of Eureka, Kan, and the First National Bank of To- ronto, Kan, both of which institutions were headed by Edward c. Rego, pres ident of the City National Bank, had apparently not been affected by the Kansas City failure up to the closing hour today. Telephone messages from both points stated that the banks would not close.

The Ministry Defeated by
 a Majority of Three
THE ISSUE UNIMPORTANT
Yet the Result is Construed by the Opposition to be a Vota of no Con. fldenCe and the Government is Asked to Resign.

London, July 2O-The government was defeated in the house of commons tonight by a majority Of three on motion to reduce the membership Of inc Irish land commission.
 On the announcement of the vote, l scene of the greatest excitement was produced by the liberals and Irish members yelling Resign" The inci- dent is considered hardly of sufficient importance to justify the government in resigning, but when asked by Sir Henry Campbell Zimmerman, leader of the opposition, what course he intend ed to pursue, Premier Balfour declined to make a statement.
 John Redmond. leader of the Irish party, said the premier had repeatedly declared that he would resign if de- feated. and if he disregarded this vote of want of confidence he would be acting against all precedents. Was he going to swallow this humiliation as he had swallowed, every other hu- initiation during the last few years? the premier was asked by MT. Red mond.
 MT Balfour, replying very coolly, said that MT. Redmond had greatly agitated himself over a matter which could be settled in due time. He was, he said, not conscious of any humili- ation There would be ample Oppor- tunity within a few hours of proving whether the government still enjoys the confidence of a majority of the house. The premier said he would consult his colleagues as to whether the question would again be submitted to a vote, and would make a state ment on Monday.
 After some wrangling over the question to adjourn until Monday, it was decided to adjourn until tomor- row

The Temps adds: "It is no bluff that M. Witte so fully develops In his de- clarations to the Associated Press. Tie Japanese should take good account Of M. Witte's state of mind Russia, de- spite her losses, is far from being crushed. It would therefore be absurd for Japan to attempt to impose ex- treme conditions and if exigencies force her to demand humiliating terms then the success of the peace negotiations is irremedially compromised.
