q The latest and most contemplate
along This line Is a communication IN fae

Now, why should ne apologize for

any one in the equity has the right 70

yeals him as a citizen OF Salem. And,

subterfuge has been resorted to BY al

Next, this alleged Clarksburger lays

Misdemeanors

Havana, July 7.-General Nunez, Governor of
Havana Province, has suspended Juan O'FarriIl
Mayor of Havana. The reason alleged Is that the
investigation of the Mayor and aldermen, begun
more than a year ago. developed offences by the
Mayor along the line of unauthorized and improp-
er expenditures, permitting favored citizens TO
duct of municiDal affairs
None of the aldermen suspended. and the
friends Of the Mayor point to the significant fact
that the majority of the aldermen have lust pub
icly announced themselves a followers of Gov
ernor Nunez. They also call attention to the fact
that Governor NuneZ, when commanded by the
government three months ago to push the inves-
ugation against the Mayor and aldermen, insisted
that ne had long previously decided the charges

Washington. July Information received
here to-day from Toxic. to the effect that Baron
Komura and the attaches who will accompany
him TO the Peace Conference will sail from Yo-
kohoma Tomorrow for Seattle. ADDS to the con-
fdence that the Peace Conference. in consonance
with the Presidents wishes, will hold It's first
farmal meeting in Washington about August l.
q view which seems to be shared by the pleni-
potentiaries who now In Washington.
It is assumed that Baron Komura will reach
Washington about July 20. possibly on July 28
1t is recalled that the Minnesota, on which
Baron Komura sails, made record trip when
she last crossed the Pacific, making the voyage
in fourteen days and some hours. 1t is practi-
cally FIVE days journey from Seattle to Wash
ington, which would make the time of arrival
here the evening OF July %. although it Is of
course possible that schedule time may not be
made long a journey.
Information has been received here to the
effect that NJ Muravier will leave ST. Peters
burg, with his suite. July 20. bound for
Washington. and that would. 1t is estimated.
permit of his reaching Washington about July
20. It seems to be practically decided that only
one meeting of the plenipotentiaries will be held
in Washington. after which they are expected
to embark on naval vessels for Oyster Bay
there to pay their respects to the President, and
from Oyster Bay to go to some point on the
w-England coast for their further sessions.
1t is believed that the date for the first formal
meeting has been definitely decided on but as 1t
has been agreed that the President shall make
all formal announcements prior to the actual
meeting of the conference. the plenipotentiaries
maintain that it would not be etiquette for them
to make public any details regarding the coming
meeting. 1t is further intimated that the
lection Of place Of meeting has been narrowed
down to few cities but hint as to which
cities under consideration is vouchsafed-
Baron Rosen, who came to Washington from
Manchester by the-Sea to-day, has been well
