FRANCE WORKING
HARD FOR PEACE
Strong Influences Exerted on
Russia to End the
War
CAR MAY GAIL z.MSKV SOBOa

Paris, June 2.-Strong influences are
being exerted between Paris and st.
Petersburg towards securing the reali-
zation of peace, hopes of which for
the first time assumed definite shape
within the last few days. Exchanges
which have already occurred give en-
couragement of a pacific solution. but
these are not yet explicit. Although
the officials observe silence with re-
gard to their plans, it is gathered that
the chief reliance is the securing of
the united influence of Great Britain,
France and the United States in bring
ing about some basis of accord be-
tween the belligerents. Heretofore this
influence has been merely moral, ow-
ing to Russia's refusal to permit 1t to
take more concrete shape, but the indi-
cations are that Russia may allow it to
assume a more material character to
the extent of having nations friendly
both to Japan and Russia and to the
cause of peace cooperate towards ter
minatlng the conflict and initiating
peace negotiations.

WAYS OF THE MINK.
a e.udy of the Clever Little Animal In
It's Own Haunts.

Its Own Haunts.
Gone summer morning when l
was in the Adirondacks," writes a
correspondent, 81 rose early to go
bass fishing.
"The day before we had caught
three bass and three sunfsh, which
we put in a little pond out on the
edge Of the point in order to keep
them fresh until needed. AS l vas
preparing my rod my attention was
attracted to splashing noise in the
direction of my pond of fish.
"Suspecting that something un-
usual was taking place, l approach
ed the spot cautiously and saw the
long, brown body Of a mink gliding
away with one Of my fish in his
mouth.
Il was greatly interested in the
sight of a live mink operating in his
own haunts and decided that 1
would rather see him work than
eat the fish myself. While he was
concealing the fish in some nearby
but unseen nook 1 walked still
closer, until l was within twenty
feet Of my pond, where l remained
motionless, awaiting developments.
"In a moment the energetic little
animal reappeared at the pond, gave
quick dive into the water, like a
seal, and came up with another fish.
Glancing about him with his little,
black, beady eyes, he hurried off
without even noticing my presence.
81 stood motionless and fascinat-
ed and watched him transport every
one of my fish to his secret store
house. After all my fish were safe
" slowed away the little worker
tripped in nervous haste back to-
ward the woods to tell INSTANTLY of
the find and invite them all down
to dinner.
'Late in the afternoon of that
same day this successful little fisher
man led a colony of four other
minks out of the woods and down
to Rocky point. The dinner party
had to pass close to our hotel in or
der to reach the point where the
fish were stored. To do so unobsery-
ed they must travel under a long
board walk. In,doing this one little
innocent mink, not knowing the
ways of man, came up through a
hole in the walk. A city boy saw
him, and before we could stop him
he seized a club and battered him to
death

M neoIaIon Reaohed.

St Petersburg, June 2.-St. Peters
burg is full of rumors of the most con-
Trajectory character regarding the
prospects of peace, but in the best in
formed quarters the Associated Press
was told that no definite decision had
been reached. Nevertheless il is per-
sistently reported that an imperial
manifesto may be expected within a
brief time.
This manifesto it is credibly report
ed will proclaim the immediate convo-
cation of a national assembly to which
the question of peace or war will be
submitted, thereby shifting the burden
of a decision from the shoulders of the
emperor to the whole nation, robbing
agitators Of the opportunity to- make
revolutionary capital out of the de-
cision, whichever way it may be
taken.
The emperOr's advisers realize that
whatever haste may be made in calling
together the representatives of the
people It will be impossible for them
to meet in time TO forestall another
battle in Manchuria, but though a re-
quest for an armistice is a possibility,
the present disposition is to leave the
matter entirely in the hands of the as
semhly. as another defeat on land un-
less decisive could not change the sit
uation or make it much worse. while a
victory for Lieutenant General Line
witch would alter the complexion of
affairs entirely.
Omcial reports bearing on the naval
battle are beginning to be received
by Emperor Nicholas and Grand Duke
Alexis. the high admiral. the most inn
portant OF these reports revealing the
fate of the cruiser Izumrud, being a
telegram from her captain. Baron Fer
zen, dated June l, saying that he had
blown up the cruiser at the entrance
Of Vladimir bay.
The baron says that before dark on

Japanese torpedo boats, especially at
the extremities of the line.
Towards 10 O'Clock the Japanese
fleet appeared first TO port and then
to starboard, while the cruiser divi-
sion manoeuvred behind the Russians
to starboard. Baron Ferzen's account
/ continues;
Il was cut off from the squadron

o'clock next morning. in pitch dark

be impossible to again float my vessel,

the Izumrud TO prevent her falling into

 The statement imputed to Col.

Greene does not aspire to be a railread magnate, and has plenty of other interests to occupy his attention and capital. It is believed, however, that Hartman stands a better show than the Rock Island of securing the road, as the Southern Pacific crowd are closely associated with Col.

REAL ESTATE DEAL.
Fair Store People Buy Ground on Which to Build Addition to
 Present Quarters.

An important real estate deal was negotiated in the city yesterday by the J. E. Thompson Co, when they sold to Frankenberg Bros. & New man the lot and lodging house of Mrs. Edwards back Of the Fair Store, on the opposite side of the subway. At the same time a narrow strip along side was sold to the Fair people by J. Givens. On the ground purchased will be erected by the Fair firm a large ware house. Tie new building will probably be of brick. The second floor will be connected as an annex by passageway over the street with the main store, and will be used as part of the latter, giving a much increased floor space for the trade of the store.
 Mrs. Edwards following sale of her property made purchase of the J. E. Thompson Co of a corner lot in the Johnson addition, on which she will immediately commence the construc- ton of large lodging house. The lot she sold in the city yesterday had been held by her for a number of years, she having been the original To- cator of the ground.

Thought It Big Place Until They Ar. rived on Ground, But Believe There Will Be Room Enough to Pitch Tents.

When the Barnum & Bailey circus pitches it's tents among the cactus of Don Luis on the fourth day of October next, it will make a record of giving a performance in a town of fewer In- habitants than it has ever before hal the fortune to invade.
 When inc advance agent, "Tod" Hamilton, was here this week he was somewhat surprised to have his car hauled into Bisbee, as his route sheet showed Don Luis to be tho objective point. He, of course, thought Don Luis was a city big enough to sup port his big aggregation, and when he was told that the population was only about seventy-hye, even when they were all at home, he looked wise an1 said nothing.
 When he came to understand, how ever, that Don Luis was the only pos sible point at which to ritch tents, and that there was enough room in the valley to hold several Barnum & Bailey shows, he understood why the booking agent had chosen Don Luis as a circus site.
 Don Luis will now have the honor of being the smallest town the Big gest Show on Earth" ever gave a per formance in.

FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT
 CLAIMED HIS LIFE
EDWARD FREER, FORMER Bis5EE BOY, NOT MURDERED IN MEX
 ICo AS FIRST REPORTED.
Four Others Died With Him, One an American, as Result of Being Struck by Falling Pipe Near Mexico City-Body Sent to Minnesota.

It develops that Edward W. FreeT, formerly an employe at the Holbrook, who was thought. according to first re- ports that came out of Mexico about his death a couple of months ago, to have been murdered for his money was the victim of an accident in which another American and three MeXicans lest their lives.
 The body of MT. Freer was sent from Mexico to the home of his pa rents at Princeton, Minn., where in teFment occurred a week ago. The young man was 24 years of age. He had numerous acquaintances in BIs5ee who were shocked upon the report of his death reaching here. The first full report of the manner of Its occur renee is contained in the following ac- count from the Princeton Union:
 INT. Freer, another American and five Mexicans were at work in a deep ravine constructing an acqueduct. Upon one side was a mountain-or natural dam-500 feet high and almost perpendicular, from the top of which workmen were lowering by means of a cable fiye-inch ircn pipes thirty-iye feet in length for use in the constCuc. ton of the acqueduct referred to. It appears that as one of these pipes was being let down into the ravine and when about a hundred feet above the heads of the workmen, the cable snapped and the pipe striking a pro- truding rock or ledge, was smashed into exactly seven pieces. Singular as it may seem, each of the seven pieces of pipe in its descent cut down a man. MT. Freer, who was at the time stooping 10 pick up a screw used in connecting the pipes, was struck on the left side of his neck and his boly badly lacerated from that point down ward, causing, as was stat ed by the Mexican surgeon who exam. ined the remains, instantaneous death. The other American, whose home was in Knoxville, Missouri, was mortaily wounded, three Mexicans were kii,ed and twe-seF eFls' injured. Not a man escaped unhurt. When struck by the piece of pipe the body of Mir. Freer was Preeipltated into a river which flowed through the ravine or canyon near where he was at work, and was carried by the current into a tunnel, where his body was discovered by 'Senor Leyendecker, who, with a party of horsemen. arrived upon the scene from the City of Mexico, sixty miles distant. in response to a telegraphic CT telephonfc message.

HOW CANANEA EAGLES
 WON THE FIRST PRIZE
MEMBER OF DELEGATION TO EA- GILES GATHERING TELLS
 INTERESTING STORY.
Boys From Mexico Fairly Leaped into Parade and into Hono-s of the Day. Storms Of Applause along Route and Final Award Conpiete Surprises.

s. wv. Parrott, who was in the city from Cananea en route to the interior of Mexico, told how the Cananea del egation of Eagles at the Denver Ma tional gathering of the order came to enter the big parade, iE which t captured first prize, a splendid ban ner valued at $500. The story is of decided interest.
 No preparation had been made by the Cananea boys for participation in the parade. The day before the lat ter, however, some one of the delega- ton suggested that it certainly ought to get in line, particularly as it was the only representation present from Mexico. The suggestion was sm- mediately adopted and the matter of costumes then preached. Some one suggested sombreros and some one else serapes. A committe was at once sent out to get these articles in quantity sufficient for the delegation. They were obtained with difficulty but obtained just the same. An hour before the parade started some one suggested that white trousers Ouglt 10 be had and man was sent in haste to get these. He returned just a fev minutes before the parade started ant the delegation had to leap into its new clothes and make for the ranks on the run. Not one of the number was prepared for the storms of ap- plause that greeted their costumes along the line of march nor for the decision awarding the biz prize, which came as a genuine surprise 10 the Can ada boys at the end of the parade.
