Laid to Rest at clontarf.

GAINESVILLE, Mimi, June 21.-Mrs
Eugene N. Edwards, wife of the fore
man of the Record-Review office,
passed away at her home on Broad
way street on the 9th inst. of organic
disease of the heart. Her death was
not unexpected owing to the fact that
the physicians had for some time
past despaired of ever conquering the
various difficulties that seemed deter
mined to outwit all the skill that could
be brought to bear upon them. Mrs.
Edwards also realized that the end
was near, but she was prepared to
meet 1t and accepted her fate with
the fortitude of true Catholic and a
devout Christian woman.
Miss Ellen Freeman was of Irish
.parentage, being the oldest living
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. P. Freeman,
pioneer residents of Swift county.
She was born in Clontarf on Nov. Is,
1873, and resided there until her mar
riage to Eugene N. Edwards on the
18th day of November, 1901. Shortly
after their marriage the young couple
moved to Morristown, where Mr.. Ed
wards was employed as foreman, later
going to Easton, where he assumed
control of the Index. In May, 1902,
they returned to Benson, where the
husband was employed as foreman on
the Swift County Review, and later t.
Breckenridge, where he entered the
employ Of the Great Northern as fire.
man, which position, on account of
the health of his wife, he was COM
PEELED to resign and he then accepted
the foremanship Of the Record-Review
office in January, 1904.
Deceased was a charter member of
the Ladies' Auxiliary Of the Ancient
Order of Hibernians at Clontarf, and
was also a member of the Benson
lodge of the Degree of Honor. She
was a devout Catholic and good
Christian woman, caring little for
society, but concerning herself chiefly
with the happiness of her husband
and the comforts of her home. Her
retiring nature was not such as would
draw people to her or make friends
rapidly, but once an acquaintance was
made the impression was formed that
her friendship was of distinct ad
vantage and a valuable possession.
Her mother, Mrs. p. Freeman, was
with her during her last illness and
nothing was left undone that would
in any way tend to relieve her suffer
ings or make as happy as possible the
few remaining hours of her earthly
existence. Deceased Is survived by
her husband. father, mother, two sis
tiers, all of whom are well known and
respected here. The sympathy oil
their numberless friends here and all
over the state are extended to the be

that the Russian Government did not expect
and did not desire peace.
The, latter fact was fully Understood by
Japan, at least during the past few days.
and diplomatic opinion here inclines to the
beliefthat this was ono Of the strong motives
which induced ToAio to Close with her ad-
versary on the terms to which sho has
assentsd, In full confidence that they would
not b accepted.
No che In the diplomatic world asoribes
the Japanese decision to considerations
Of magnanimity or humanitarianism. They
do. IN most cases. credit her with wise states
manship Russia's claim that she was
able to carry on defensive campaign
until Japan was completely exhausted IL not
regarded as q mere bluff by the most i'm.
partial European authorities. Some 60
80 far a. to cay that Japan In the future
would never have been able to get terms
80 favorable a. she obtained to-day. This
idea Is coupled with the suggestion that
Russia may interpret Japan's withdrawal
a. . confession OF weakness which might
create danger Of future Russian aggression.
1t is recalled that. Japan's original an
nouncement was that her principal motive
in demanding an indemnity was to ensure
lasting peace.
It has been represented to-day that
Great Britain has been putting pressure
on her ally to make peace. This ia untrue.
England has earnestly desired peace, prin-
cipally on account Of the European crisis
and in order to curb the Kaiser's adven-
turous spirit. Japan IL fully aware Of this
and she Is In full sympathy with the British
wishes, but she has not been called upon
to sacrifice her own interests in this or any
other respect.
It Is in its effect upon the European situa-
ton that peace u the most welcome. To.
days news from Portsmouth relieves grave
anxieties in several capitals. There was
serious danger OF renewal Of the peril
10 European peace which alarmed tho
world early in tho summer. Tho personal
relations between King Edward and En-
peror William arc 10 strained a. 70 amount
to positive hostility. The Moroccan crisis
IL again becoming serious. The fact that
Russia viii now be able to place large
force on her western frontier at short
notice must have a. restraining influence
Of immense value during the develop
meots Of tho near future. Europe wei
comes peace for her own sake. and there
fore with Q sensation Of intense relief.

81. PETERSBURG, Aug. 7e.-The nsws Of
the peAoe agreement did not rsaoh here until
O'Clock this evening. It speedily oircu-
lated by word Of mouth and was received
with general Incredibly.
It Is no exaggeration to say that Il pro-
duced disnay in Official circles and amaze
ment to tho general public. Not for .
moment had It been expected here that
Japan would abandon Ill her essential
demands. Not for . moment have the
members OF the war party believed that
peace was possible outcome Of tho con-
ference. Their attitude tonight is one Of
furious evaporation - Of people who have
been trioked into false position.
The plans OF the Government are COM
pletely upset by the sudden change in the
situation. The reaotionariss talk chiefly
Of future revenge against Japan, but they
are more Immediately concerned by the
vital effect of pesoe upon the internal
situation and the resulting confusion in
all tho Government plans.
There u even rash talk Of sending Con.
Linievitch's army Immediately against Con-
stantinople 10 order to prevent the return
Of the troops to their homes to foanent
revolution. and for the purpose also Of re-
trieving the military prestige Of tho empire.
There cannot Be tho smallest doubt that
the country at large WIN welcome peace
with the utmost enthusiasm now that an
indemnity has been zbsndonoi and the
territorial sacrifices will b moro tribe.
Russia, outside Of official circles. is only
too glad to settle the issue with Japan on
the basis Of . drawn battle. Tho public
satisfaction Is still further increased BY
the discontinue Of TIE war party.
Less than an hour before tho news Of
the agreement arrived. tho Ministry Of
Foreign Affairs gave out q statement to
the effect that It would be impossible to
reach Q settlement through the introduo-
ton Of an arbitration commission to az

LONDON, Aug. as.-Exoept in official
circles at 81. Petersburg and Berlin the
news that peace has been made will be
received throughout Europe with un-
bounded satisiaction and rejoicing. Hope
Of this result bad been practically aban-
doned since II WAS known there was no
chance Of Russia yielding to Japan's prin-
Opal demands.
Ths idea that Japan would again abandon
the fruits Of victory after repeatedly do
olaring tho opposite intention was hardly
considered among the possibilities Of the
situation until two days ago.
Then Il was whispered In certain diplo-
matic orioles that secret agreement sx-
listed between Japan and China. BY the
terms Of which the latter agreed to pay the
expenses OF the war for the restoration Of
Manohuria in case Japan failed, to compel
Russia to pay an indemnity. There d no
adequase authority for this rumor, but 1t
b received with certain amount Of Gre
dence. especially since the news has como
Of Iapan's amazing sacrifice Of her principal
claim.
It is pointed out tina such compensation

would be only just and equitable. It
would DO unreasonable TO expect Japan to

Peaco Arrangements WIN Cause Any

AIarksts-Foreisn Bankers Have Largo
Accommodations to Meet Any Possible
1ndemntty-Wail Street Not Surprised.
Upon the announcement Of peace yester.
day II was learned upon the highest att
thority that American bankers are now
prepared to float great Russian loan.
Az matter Of fact, fnanciers In this city
have had the terms Of Russian loen II
mind for sevsral months past and the Rus
sian Government has known that upon
the conclusion Of peace 1t could raise money
hero. On the other hand. both the COM
batants have known how difficult 1t would
be TO get the funds to continue warfare.
Knowing this Wall Street was not greatly
surprised at the conclusion Of peace.
A matter Of great interest regarding
the forthcoming loap Is the probability
that American bankers will take the initia-
tive in floating It. Hitherto the foreign
bankers have taken the first steps in raising
money for the combatants and American
bankers were asked I associate themselves
with the foreign houses. But the American
firms will this time ask London, Berlin
and Paris to take part in the now loan.
A to how much money would be raised
here no one with authority would speak.
An estimate was that SioO. 900 900 might be
the sum. Although ono or two well known
banking firms will assume the leadership In
the new loan. 1t was stated that syndicate
including many other banks and Arms
would participate.
It was also said upon good authority that
another japanese loan would Be noated
hero, and q In the case Of Russis's Dor.
rowing. tho local bankers would, for the
first, time. take tho, iaitiativs. No estimate
OF ths amount was given. e.s.l~ ~. 49,.
Ono opinion expressed by bankers here
was that RuseiA while not paying an in
demnity would have to make some very
heavy psymsuts to Japan for food and
lodging Of Russian prisoners. So great
would these payments be that In the opinion
Of ono banker they would almost amount
to Indemnity.
General opinion seemed to be that Europe
will not suffer money stringenoy a.
result Of the conclusion Of peace. It was
pointed out that Europe had expected
the payment Of largo indemnity by Russia,
and had accumulated great funds for such
contingency. These funds. It was said.
would be more than ample to meet any
possible squeeze.
Ono result Of the announcement OF peace
was considerable gain in price BY tho vari.
sas ..sree cs Japanese bonds. which have
been weak Of late. There was fractional
