his annual report Gen. Corbin says there
is too frequently evidence that there are

complaints on this point he says, calls for
drastic treatment. N general then lays
down these principles:
The momen an officer begins living
beyond his means he should be subjected
TO rigid discipline. Young officers Joining
tho service should be admonished that for
them only the simple life is possible.
The momen an officer is possessed
with an uncomfortable desire for any
other life he. as n duty To himself as

II is officially announced that THE
Russian government proposes TO address
the foreign Powers with a view 10 the
holding Of a second peace conference az
The Hague but II is known that nego-
tiations preceding this announcement,
that the government proposed TO ad-
dress the Powers were entered into. es-
pecially with the United States. and were
conducted with the greatest secrecy.
there being not the slightest inkling that
Russia contemplated anything Of the kind.
The announcement created the greatest
surprise here. and that Russia should
plan a second conference. despite the
steps already taken by President Roose-
welt. was also heard with amazement. II
IL clear that the step could not I've taken
by Russia without first reaching a com.
plete understanding with President Roose-
welt.
The fact that President Roosevelt is
With the proposal and that he is said TO
believe hat to the initiator OF the first
Hague conference should belong the honor
OF c%onvoking the second. and readily and
even gladly acceded to the Russian pro-
possl. is clear proof that the conference
has already been called and that Presi-
dent Roosevelt relinauished his part i'm IL
70 the Emperor.
There Is strong reason to believe that
the news even OF the Intention OF the
Russian government would not be given
out unless invitations had already been
sent 10 the Powers and, possibly, that
their answers had been received.
In this connection an interesting ques-
ton arises al 10 now the invitation was
communicated TO japan In view OF the
lack OF diplomatic relations. but the invi-
tation may be delayed until such. rela-
tions have been resumed or IL may have
been forwarded through the United
States. '.ss
IL was impossible TO learn last night the
proposed date OF the. second conference
or 10 gain even an approximate idea re-
garding IL. but IL probably will not be
greatly delayed. Russia. rs the Power
~convoking the conference. will probably
