HAY HAS SUDDEN RELAPSE
BOSTON SPECIALIST SUMMONED
TO ATTEND THE sEcRE-
TARY OF STATE.

Newbury, N. H., June 27.-Dr
Charles L. Scudder, a Boston special
ist, arrived here on special train
from Boston during the night to at
tend Secretary of State John Hay,
who arrived at his summer home at
Lake Sunapee on Saturday.
Secretary Hay, who had suffered a
sudden relapse of his nervous break
down, grew very much better after the
arrival of the physician and his condi.
tion became SO favorable that DR..
Scudder has arranged to return to
Boston
Dr. Scudder attributes Secretary
Hays attack to a sudden cold con-
tracted on his trip to NeWbury. It is
thought that he will be all right in a
day or two.
Before leaving for Boston DR.. Scud-
der, gave out the following bulletin
with reference to Secretary Hays i'll
ness:
Mr.. Hay is suffering from the ef-
fects of chill caught on the journey
from Washington. The attack is sim
liar to one which he had four years
ago."
During the afternoon it was report
ed from Secretary Hays bedside that
the patient was resting comfortably,
with everything favorable"

among the more radical element In
favor of general strike of all team
sters in Chicago and to encourage a
prompt ending of the existing struggle
either by accepting the employers
terms or calling off the strike.
At the present time the main por.
tion of the teamsters' army is intact,
only 1000 out of $1,000 being on
strike. A general attack upon employ
ers, it was declared, could result only
in general disorganization and call
for the militia This move also would
result in the drivers cutting loose
from their main basis of support
the teamsters who are employed.
Meetings will be held shortly by the
department store drivers and the rail
way express drivers to vote on the
question of accepting the peace terms

Cork, chairman of the peace commit

favorable vote by these two locals
would mean an end of the strike, as

TWENTY TWO BOYS PERISH
DANISH CADET TRAINING YES.
Sci RAMMED AND SUNK BY
BRITISH STEAMER.

Copenhagen, Denmark, June PA
serious disaster occurred during the
night near here when the Danish
cadet training schooner George Stage
was rammed and sunk by the British
steamer Ancona. The George Stage
sank in one and one-half minutes.
Twenty-Five cadets were drowned and
fiftE-sevel rescued
The boys were all in their hunks at
the time of the disaster. The night
was overcast, but it was not SO dark
that objects could not be seen at some
distance.
The Ancona was considerably dam
aged along her Waterline. The port
authorities have placed an embargo
on the Ancona, which will remain here
until the inquiry into the collision is
completed.
Thus far only single body has
been recovered by the divers who have
gone down to the wreck.

QUESTION OF PRECEDENCE.
Stumbling Block to Naming of Peace
PIenipotentiaries.

Stumbling Block to Naming of Peace
PIenipotentiaries
st. Petersburg, June 27.-Both ia
pan and Russia are now understood
to have agreed on the time when their
plenipotentiaries shall meet at Wash
ington. 1t will be during the first ten
days of August, but the exact date
probably will be announced by Fresi-
dent Roosevelt. The question Of prece-
dence evidently is the main stumbling
block to a prompt settlement of the
number of personal negotiatcrs. Both
sides seem desirous to make the other
take the initial move. Russia seems
to consider that it is Japan's duty to.
name her plenipotentiarie before Rus
sia announces hers. While the exact
number OF the plenipotentiaries has
not been officially arranged both pow
ers seem to have tacitly agreed on
three. The actual announcement of
the names of the plenipotentiaries is
expected within few days.
The question of possible armis-
tice, as stated last week, remains in
allegiance for the moment, Japan, it
is understood, declining even to take
the matter up until the issues involved
in the Washington meeting are def
nitely settled. In the meantime there
have been heavy downpours in Man
churia and the rainy season may en-
force suspension of military opera
tions before diplomacy can act.

TREATMENT OF CHINESE.
President Orders Exempt Glasses Be
Admitted Without Question.


Admitted Without Question.
Washington, June 27.-President
Roosevelt has ordered that the difficult
ties and annoyances to which the bet
ter class of Chinese seeking to land
in this country are subjected must be
done away with at once.
1t is the declared intention of the
president to see that Chinese mer-
chants, travellers, students and others
of the exempt classes shall have the
same courtesy shown to them by Off
GERS of the immigration bureau as is
accorded to citizens of the most IA
vored nation.
Instructions have been issued to
the diplomatic and consular represen-
tatives of the United States in China
by the president himself that they
must look closely to the performance
of their duties under the exclusion
law and see to it that members of the
exempt classes coming to this country
are provided with proper certificates.
These certificates will be accepted at
any port of the United States and will
guarantee the bearer against any
harsh or discourteous treatment.
1t is expected that the prompt action
taken by this government to meet the
objections made by the Chinese will
eliminate the possibility of serious
trade difficulties between China and
the manufactures OF this country

ENCAMPMENT.

Warsaw, Russian Poland, June 27.-
This city has the appearance of mill
tary encampment Infantry and Cos
sacks are bivouacked in the streets
and patrols are circulating every
where. Barricades have been erected
at the corner of Ogrodowa and Zelazua
streets and occasionally the crack of a
rife is heard as strikers shoot at men
going to work.
The Jewish districts are in full re,
volt. The shops and stores are closed
and traffic has ceased. The street cars
have been overturned to form the
nucleus Of barricades. Great crowds
are assembling in the streets and the
ugly temper Of both the populace ana

bloodshed at any moment.
Thirty-four battaions of infantry

FRANco.GERMAN DISPUTE.
Tension Over the Situation Somewhat
Relieved.

Paris. June 27.--Although Germany's

not yet been received there is reasoi:
to believe that the interview between
Chancellor Won BueloW and M. Bi.

many, resulted in quite fully fore
shadoW1ng Germany's intentions. The
results of the interview are now in
the possession of Premier Rouvier
and he is not likely to make them
known before the next meeting of the
council of ministers, when the status
of the negotiations will be fully gone
over.
However, a definite determination
either favorable or unfavorable will
not be long deferred. Several PROPOSE
tions are under consideration with the
view to terminating the crisis, but
until one of these is definitely chosen
the officials will be unable to predict
its chances of success.
Public tension over the controversy
is much relieved, the bourse sharing
in the improvement.
