Paris, Sept 14.-The foreign of

Paris, Sept 14.-Ihe foreign on has received dispatch from the French minister at Tokio saying that calm has been re-established, but that the legation as precautionary meas ure continues under military guard.
 It is the present intention to post pone making public the text of the new treaty between Great Britain and Japan. The officials here were ad- yised that the first plan was to make 1t public in London and Toklo iast Monday, but Japan asked for further time. probably on account of the inier- nal disorders, and 1t was thereupon arranged to let the publication go over for a month when it is expected the texts of the treaty of alliance and or the Portsmouth treaty will be officialiy communicated to the public at the same time, as the two documents are expected to counter-balance each other with the Japanese public. However, it is possible that action of the Japan ese diet upon the treaties may lead to a postponement of the publication or their texts beyond month. In the meantime 1t is said that the new Anglo-Japanese alliance does not con tain surprises outside of the main fea- tures summarized in these dispatches September [, but that in addition the agreement covers secret clauses known only to the contracting parties and which will not made public.

OAKvILLE TRESTLE.
Three Parties May Each Assume One.
 Third of Cost.

Mayor Elton has called a special meeting of the board of aldermen for Friday night to discuss the Oakville trestle question. It is understood that the difference can now be adjusted by an agreement whereby the three par ties to the row. the steam railroad. the trolley company and the city of Wa. terbury, shall each pay one-third of the total cost. This isn't so bad al- though some claim that the trolley folks should foot the full bill. But it might not be bad plan to dispose of 1t in that way. At the beginning of this snarl which started three or four years ago, a great many citizens con tended that 1t was a shame not to let the trolley go ahead and have the taxpayers settle. but the Kilduff ad- ministration wouldn't have 1t and de- cided to try conclusions with the two big corporations in the courts. The business administration, to give 1t Its due. saw the merit of the conten- ton Of it's predecessors, and continued the scrap until the present time John O'Neill and Mir Kellogg conducted the city's side of the case and if the people win everybody will be saying that the lawyer is worthy of his hire. There are bushelfuls of law for mu- inequalities with reference to trolley matters if they would but take ad- vantage of 1t" said Mir O'Neill when the question was first mentioned to him. He believed that the city had a good case and judging by what has since happened John knew what be was talking about.

WANTED DEATH.
Escaped That Sentence by Margin of a
 Minute.

Chicago, Sept 1.-Two Chicago mur- derers escaped final sentence to the gallows yesterday afternoon by a mar gin of.a minute, after one of them had declared again and again that he pre- ferred hanging to life Imprisonment. The other had consistently averred his innocence and refused to make the plea of guilty that was necessary for the change of sentence to prison for life.
 Two excited lawyers worked with the convicted men, and won them to confession just as Judge Barnes in the criminal court was starting to speak the words setting the date of execution.
 John Lorenz and John Nadolski were the prisoners. They already had been convicted of killing Fritz Krue- ger on March IS, 1905, in a saloon.

PRODUCE ARTIFICIAL LIFE
Professor Loeb Explains One More
 Step Towards That End.

San Francisco, Sept 14.-Professor Jacques Loeb of the University of California has just made public an other step in his work of producing
 life by artificial methods. He has
 found reason for the appearance of the fertilization membrane which ap- pears around the sea urchin and star fish eggs after they have been pene- trated by the active element. He an nounces that fertilization of the eggs is accomplished by the active eie- ments driving out some substance Tn the eggs, which prevents fertilization.
 Professor Loeb found that the mem- brane is the result of etersion of sub- stances from the egg which lifts 1t up from the surface. This makes up the fluid lying between the egg and the membrane. and appears to contain substances which, when in the egg, prevent It's development. It follows that any chemical which drives out these substances will release the v;tai mechanism and produce artificial life.
