LANG CHENG TALKS
 ABOUT RAILROAD
THINKS HANkOW MATTER WILL BE SETTLED AMICABLY-CHlNA WANTS TO BUY UP THE CON- CEoSIONS.

Oyster Bay, August S.-Sir Chen Tung Liang Cheng, the Chinese minister ar rived here tonight and was driven to Sagamore Hill He took dinner with the President and Mrs. Roosevelt The min ister came particularly to talk over with the President matters relating to the Hankow railroad, concerning which J. Pierpont Morgan had a conference yes- terday with the President.
 Sir Liang Cheng desired to obtain some information about that conference and to present also statement of the situa- tion from the standpoint of the Chinese government. Sir Llang Cheng remained at Sagamore Hill about two hours re- turring on the 1O:3O train to New York.
 "China wants to purchase the railroad and its eoncessions.' said Sir Liang Cheng before departing for New York. And has made an offer for it. What that offer is l cannot disclose just now. We arc trying to patch up an arrangement that will be satisfactory, and l think an entirely friendly settlement will be reach ed"
 The property, he explained, was eighty five miles of railroad on paper, but only ~wenty-eight miles in actual operation,
 "The company" said he, "has conces- sions for $50 miles of line, but in seven years 1t has built only twenty eight miles"
 It can be said by authority of the President that the visit of Secretary Shaw of the treasury department to Saga more Hill had no relation to the secre- tary's retirement from the cabinet. Sec retary Shaw has let 1t be known how ever, that he expects to resign from the cabinet some time next winter but no definite date for his retirement has been set II Is said he will be a candidate for the presidential election in 1908. and he retires to free himself from any embar- rassment in the conduct of his campaign for the nomination.

Paris Greatly Interested.

Paris. August S-Diplomatlc and gov ernmental officials are manfesting the greatest interest relative to the outcome of the peace conference. The recent pes simism has almost entirely disappeared and a feeling of confidence reigns that the negotiations and the wisdom of those concerned will overcome all difficulties. and that the conference will eventuate in a satisfactory arrangement.
 The huoyant tendency of the bonrse, where Russian securities are very firm. shows that this view is also prevalent in commercial circles. The newspapers point out as happy augury that France and Great Britain, the allies of the respective belligerents are celebrating the attain ment of better relationship in town of the same name as that in which the peace conference will take place. It is hoped that the cordality displayed during the visit of the French fleet to Portsmouth will result in strong influences being brought to bear on the Russian and Jap anese governments in favor of moderation. Thus the probability will be increased that President Roosevelts initiative will result In the declaration of il dignified peace without hurting the self-respect of either belligerant

 There Is a distinct improvement in the yellow fever stuation" said Mir. Brous- sard tonight. q believe the disease will be well under control long before frost. The people are meeting the situation man. fully. There is no panic and the authori- ties are confident of their ability to cope with the disease.

PIXIES PEAK BY TRAIL.

A letter received from Miss Edna Smith gives an interesting account of the as cent to Pikes Peak.
 "A party of twenty started on Wednes- day afternoon. mounted on burros, a picturesque group, Judging from the readi- ness with which kodacs were levelled on us, but to my eye rather an unsighty spectacle, since one must be dressed for all kinds of weather. We rode English style, with a Mexican hat which will keep off both sun and rain; we have rain coats and all one can get on besides. the cold Is very intense as one hears the summit. passing through snow and ice.
 Leaving the town of Maniton, and en- tering the trail, we follow the guide, one by one, with another guide behind us, as the trail, a well worn path on the side of a seemingly perpendicular ascent. Is just wide enough for one to pass, and on some corners so narrow one holds their breath until 1t is passed. If the burros should step aside a foot 1t would mean being hurled several hundred feet below into a rushing mountain river which tum- bles over boulders, forming water falls of great heights. But so beautiful is it all that one soon loves the sensation of fear, and Is enwrapped in wonder. The burros are so sure of foot you only have | to let them have the reins They feel | instinctively the danger. and travel with their heads close to the ground. With the | greatest care they place one foot firmly before jumping across to the ledge so much heigher. After one hours Journey | we were two thousand feet above Mani | ton.
 "we arrived at the Halfway house at o'clock. having travelled six miles. We travelled until o'clock. then camped | for a part of the night. A camp fire was kindled around which we all sat to warm | our stiffened hands and feet. Our beds were of straw, and though wrapped Tn blankets we found too bitter cold to rest, and after a short attempt were forced | to return to the fire. At midnight we set out again. our way so dark we could l just see a moving mass before us. Final ly coming to timber line. twelve thousand
 feet in altitude we reached open country
 and could see the lights of Colorado l Springs in the distance below us.
 "Just before reaching timber line the
 rocks became more scattered, little grass grows, and the mountain forget-me-
 nots seem to seek their shade. They do
 not grow save in high attitudes, and are
 very fragrant. From timber line to the
 summit about q mile and half. the trail
 seems almost perpendicular. and a mass
 of rocks. The stars in the heavens seem
 almost near enough to touch.'

One of the interesting preliminary ques- tions to be settled by the conference is the language in which the negotiations shall be conducted. M. Witte only speaks French and Russian, while Baron Rosen has also a command of English. Both of the Japanese are proficient in the Eng fish tongue, but Baron Komura speaks very little French. It Is realized that if English shall be chosen as the medium of the communication, translations must be made to M. Witte Should French be the language decided upon translations will have to be made preferably into English for the Japanese.
 While there are no official statements or predictions regarding the outcome of the forthcoming negotiations tonight, the prevalence of general good feeling is noticeable throughout the enyirons of the peace missions
