CHAIRMAN
He Is Sought for in Vain by the NOm-
 mating Committee.

New York, June S.-The nominating committee appointed by the directors of the Equitable Life Assurance so- ciety to name chairman of the board who shall direct the officers of the SO ciety, met today. but adjourned until tomorrow without definite action, 1t was learned. other than the dismissal of the name of Judge George Gray of Delaware in connection with the chair manship. It is understood that among the names under consideration today were those of Paul Morton. who is soon to retire as secretary of the navy, and General Horace Porter, former ambas- sador to France.
 President James W. Alexander and Vice President James H. Hyde were examined today by State Superinten- dent of Insurance Hendricks, whose inquiries into the affairs Of the society are drawing to a close. Among the de velopments of the day were announced the resignation of Robert T. Lincoln from the board of directors; the can cellation of s50,OOO policy by Mel vile E. Ingalls,, recently resigned as a director; a statement by. Alvin w. Krech, president of the Equitable Trust company and a director of the Equit- able Life, that there was absolutely no truth in the published report that the inquiry of the state insurance depart ment would show a new improprIety involving $1O,OOO, 900.

OF HE GRAVE
Surprising Incident in National Edi-
 orial Association Convention.

Guthrie, O. T., June S.-The action of James A. Renn, city editor of tho Philadelphia North American, in in jecting state politics into an address before the National Editorial associa- tion here today, has caused a fight in the Pennsylvania delegation which may be carried before the association tomorrow. The subject of MT. Benn's address was "Muzzles in Pennsyl- vania" and his attack was directed against the late Senator Matthew s. Quay and his biographer. Governor Penrypacker. His action took Quay5 friends in the convention completely by surprise. Tonight, F. B. Mckee of FreepOrt, T. H. Harter of Bellfonte, and F. s. Phelps of Erie. Pa, assert that they will present a resolution t1- morrow condemning MT. Benn's course
 MT. Benn in his address reviewed the organization of the Quay machine and events leading up to the passage of the Pennypacker libel law. He blamed MT. Quay for this severe law. claiming that it was Quay's governor who instigated it.
 He closed by saying: "There never was a Quay or Pennypacker born who could form or invent a measure that would restrict the liberty of the press or hamper it in it's constitutional right of public utterance. If Quay or Pen nypacker desire unsmirched biogra- phies. let them leave behind them rec ords free from stain"

THE LooMIs-BoWEN CASE.
Minister Russell, the Last Witness, Ar
 riVes in This Country.

Washington, June S.-After a confer ence with the president today Secretary Taft who returned last night from his Virginia trip, said that he had received telegram from MT Russell United States minister to Colombia, announc- ing his arrival in New York and say ing that he would reach Washington tomorrow. Secretary Taft said that on the arrival of Minister Russell he would call on Secretary Loomis and MT. Bowen for a conference in regard to the Loomis-B Bowen case.
 Minister Russell is the last witness to be examined. Secretary Taft did not indicate when he would make his re- port to the president. It is known that the evidence to be given by MT. Russell to all dntents and purposes is in be- half of MT. Loomis so that his eXamina- tiOn will be a purely formal matter. Secretary Taft said he had no infor- mation whatever as to the progress of peace negotiations.

RoosEVELT's WORK.
He Has Got Russia and Japan to
 Thinking of Peace.

St. Petersburg, June S-President Roosevelt is striving with excellent prospects of success to end the war and is now the central figure in the worlds stage. One of the main ob- stacles seems already overcome both Russia and Japan having agreed to ac- cept his good offices for the arrange ment of preliminaries. The belligerents are expected to arrange peace terms without outside interference. Evidence also exists that President Roosevelt has secured the support of several of the powers which at the proper time will appear at his back. An armistice will probably be the first evidence the world will have that the two warning powers have agreed to shake hands,

FOR THE EMPEROR TO SAY.

Gunshu Pass. Manchuria, June s. According to reports received by Gen eraI Linevitch from naval officers who have arrived at Vladivostok. the loss. es of Admiral Rojestvensky's fleet were from 5000 to 10000 officers and men killed or drowned and about 5000 prisoners.
 General Batjanoff, commander of the Third Manchurian army, addressing the troops yesterday on the occasion of the empress birthday. told them he hoped soon to be able to get news of a Russian victory to her majesty. Later. in conversation with the corre- spondent of the Associated Press. the general declared the defeat of the fleet was a sad and hard blow, but it would not affect the morale of the troops. who, with the dOggedness of the Rus sian soldier, will be prepared to fight as long as the emperor gives the word.
 "If the sea is lost,' he added. Rus sia can still be victorious on land. Peace, unless Japan is reasonable, is impossible"

Russia Curious to Learn of
 Japanese Terms
THANKS TO ROOSEVELT
Peace May Be in the Long Distance But There Is Evidence of Beginning of NeeOtiatiOns-ZemstVOs Pressing Upon Russian Government.

Washington. June S-The czar has at last been heard from here and the result is not unfavorable to peace. In his recent audience with MT. Meyer, the American ambassador the czar indi- cated a willingness to take under ad- visement the subject of peace and ex- pressed a warm appreciation of the friendly words of MT. Meyer, speaking as the personal envoy of the president. The reception of MT. Meyer was char acterized by the gretest cordiality and friendIiness, and the ambassadors ca blegram to the president giving a ger eral account of the audience is of a dis tinctly hopeful tone. MT. Meyer did not bring to St. Petersburg government an offer of mediation but a Friendly offer of good will" as it was under stood by Count Cassini, which apPar- ently was gratifying to the czar. Fur ther than this it is impossible to re- cord the character of the cablegram.
 MT. Takahira, the Japanese minister, called at the White House by appoint ment this afternoon and spent half an hour with the president. He was still unable to give the president the slight est indication regarding Japan's peace terms but it is believed he was ac- quainted in a general way with the hopeful tone of MT. Meyers dispatch and with this as a lever the hope is expressed here that the MikadO will meet the president half way in the earnest efforts he is making to assist in bringing about an early peace.
 Early in the afternoon Baron Kaneko, the Japanese financial adviser, was re- ceived by the president and discussed the whole situation. Baron Kaneko tonight said that JaDan had not receiV- ed directly or indirectly any request from Russia, for a statement of peace terms It was intimated that Japan would be 10th to give any such state ment until convinced that Russia was prepared to take up the question of peace with the intention of ending the war.
 Count Cassini, the Russian ambassa- dor, called at the French embassy to- day, where he had a long talk on the situation with Ambassador Jusserapd,

A Grand Trunk Accident in Which

No enc was killed, but several passen- gers were injured, among them being George C. Buffon, Grand Rapids, Mich, very seriously; Mrs. James II. sherman, Topeka, Kan; Michael Me Mullin, x-policeman. Boston, danger ously; Mrs. F. Henigan, Fort Sheri- dan, hurt about head and it is thought injured internally; Mrs. J. L. Christie. West Newton, Mass. en route to Oak land, Cal, left arm fractured and oth- erwise injured about the body. The most seriously injured are in a hospital here.

LIKE A DUTCH UNCLE.
The Zemstvos Address Nicholas in a
 Set or Resolutions.


 St. ePtersburg. June S.-The voice of the delegates of the zemstvCs and of municipalities demanding in no uncer- tain tone the immediate convocatiOn of Q national assembly to pass upon the question of peace or war, to heal inter nal strife and to unite the people for the rejuvenatiOn of Russia will be heard in an address adopted by all Russian zemstvos congress at Moscow, which a deputation headed by Count Hayden and M. Shipoff is bringing to present to the emperor.
 The document bids fair to become history. The customary phrases of re- spect at the opening and closing are omitted and it is otherwise unceremOn- ious, employing direct personal pro- nouns.
 The address arraigns the bureau cracy and reminds the emperor that his pledge to convOke the national as sembly Is slow of fullfilment. It says the country fs on the verge of civil war and even ventures to criticise royal measures, contrasting the increase of the police power by the ukase issued last Sunday with a weakening of the administrative process which the coun~ try had been led to expect.
 The address urges the summoning of a national assembly, that the war may become national or cease and concludes with a solemn reminder of the sover- eign's duty to God and the fatherland and prayer for action before it is too late.
 There is intense interest to learn whether the emperor will receive the bearers of so bold a message, couched in terms such as have never before been used between the emperor and

CHANGE OF RUSSIAN TONE.

St. Petersburg, June S.-A signifi- cant change is noted in the tone of the Russian newspapers which heretofore have not admitted even the possibility of a conclusion of hostilities until Rus sia has recovered her military pres tige by a victory. Today the papers discuss calmly the advisabiIity of end ing the war if Japans terms are req sOnable.
 It now transpires that Ambassador Meyers audience with the emperor had been preceded by a family conference at Tsars1oe- -Selo at which it is un- derstood that a decision was reached that peace was entertainable if Japan csc conditions are not too Onerous-
