In the first clash it Is reported that
twenty-four Hebrews were killed and

however, inflicted some damage on their
assailants, a number of whom were
wounded.
The fighting continued yesterday The
Hebrews organized for their own pro-

attack OF the rioters was resumed the
Hebrews fired The soldiers replied
with volleys
A miniature pitched battle followed.
Many were killed and wounded on both
sides. Troops which were sent to quell
the outbreak fired into the mass of
fighting men and temporarily restored
order.
An investigation following the firing

After the pitched battle the rioters
separated into small bands and kept up
their depredations throughout the town.

ST. PETERSBURG, June 13-As soor
as the time and place for the meeting OF
/: the ENJOYS of Russia and Japan is fixed
the Russia negotiators will be formally
announced
1t is generally accepted that NJ. Witte
and Baron Rosen will represent Russia
In the negotiations. They are admitted
ly the best equipped men for this work
in the empire.
Gar Reserves Power
While they will not be granted abso-
Z lutte power and whatever they do is
subject to approval by the Car, it can
be said they will be invested with as
much power as was granted to the
Spanish plenipotentiaries when the war
between. the United States and Spain
was brought to an end 1t is not likely
that anything to which they agree will
be repudiated by the Gar
II is pointed out that there is not the
same necessity to invest peace negotia-
tors with plenipotentiary powers as 1t
was years ago. 1t is possible now for
them 10 keep in constant touch with the
horne governn ent Consequently the
reservation of power in the hands of the
sovereign VIII cause practically no de-
Ia.
Russia for Peace
The feeling is growing that this real
~ means peace. though much depends
on the demands of Japan There will
be no delay on the part of Russia.
TIE advices from Manchuria indicate
that Oyama is going ahead in his plans.
It is realized fully that the sooner a for
NAL armistice is declared, the better il
VIII be for Russia.
1t is generally conceded that Line
witch is practically at the mercy OF
Oyan1a. The more this is aecentuated the
Stronger VIII be Japan's position in the
Eegotiat atoms.
There is still much talk against paying
Japan an indemnity, the surrender of
Saghaiien and the giving up of Vladi-
vostok as naval base. But IN diplo-
nsatic circles it is the belief that having
once entered into negotiations, Russia
has taken the bitter part of the dose
and VIII concede any ter-ns which jap
an imposes If they do rot involve need
less humiliation.
{. There is some talk Of the sale of Sag
falien to a neutral power. This is not
considered seriously

While it is impossible to get even an

HEAD OF S0USANNA
 GEARY IS FOUND
BELIEVED POLICE NOW HAVE LAST LINK IN ESTABLISHING IDENTITY OF DRESS SUIT CASE VICTIM.

Boston, November 5.--What is confi- dently believed to be the head of Susanna A. Geary, the dress suit case victim, was recovered in leather handbag from the bottom of the harbor today. It was dragged to the surface very near the point where Lewis w. Crawford and William Howard. who have confessed to disposing of the dismembered body of the girl, said they dropped 1t from the stern of an East Boston ferryboat.
 The head completes the body of the girl. The trunk was found on September 2l. and the limbs were picked up October 27. The leather bag in which the head had been placed, together with thirty pounds of shot, did not move apparently from the place where it sank.
 The bag with it's contents was taken to a Howard street undertaking establish ment and will be viewed by Medical Ex- aminer Francis A. Harris tomorrow. The head was In good state of preservation, and 1t is thought by the police 1t will be readily recognized as that of Miss Geary.
 The police today continued the search for Mary S. Dean, who is said .o have had charge of the home In which Miss Geary died after being removed from the Fremont resort.
 The hunt for, the woman was without result. and 1t is believed that she left the city as soon as she learned of the arrest of Crawford and Howard. Craw- ford and Howard will probably remain in New York for several days, until the necessary papers for their extradition are approved by Governor Higgins
 Morris Nathan, the lover of Miss Geary will be arraigned in court tomorrow on , charge of abortion.
 The police intimate that they have evi- dence to show that other similar cases have occurred in this city. and that the bodies of several victims have been dis posed of secretly.
 When asked tonight concerning the al ! leged confessions of Louis w. Crawford and William Howard, the New York pris- oners. Chief w. J. Watts of the Boston bureau of criminal investigation said;
 .The confession of these two men Is the most startling and sensational story have ever heard I do not like to think of it. It is terrible story, and the most remarkable tale in all my years of police service ever heard of

Militia and POsstnen After
 the Ball Brothers
COUNTY IS TtRROR|zED
Trouble Caused by Attempt to Arrest Frank Ball for Murder-Ball Par tizans Number Forty Well
 Armed Men.

Middlesboro, Ky, November 5.-Foifow- Ing a month of fear and anxiety, result Ing from conditions which resemble some- what those prevailing in Breathitt county recently, the mountain sides above Mld- dlesboro and Pineville tonight echoed to volleys from rifles of militia and possemen on one side, and the Ball brothers on the other. The climax came today when the first attempt was made to arrest frank Ball for the killing of Jack Bolen of this city a month ago. No direct news has come from the scene of action-a shack to the right of the road running through Cumberland Gap, and about two miles from Middlesboro-but there are well-defned reports that Shelby Ball. the leader of the Ball brothers faction. was wounded and that two members or the were also wounded
 The trouble had its origin month ago when Frank Ball killed Jack Bolen, barber of Middlesboro. He fled into Lee county, Virginia, where his father J. B. Ball. is sheriff. but 1t is alleged soon returned and has since been going about this (BelD county openly and apparently without fear of arrest. The fear of the Ball brothers, Shelby, Frank and Riley or their influence, is said to have been so great as to prevent any steps being taken for his arrest and beyond the returning of an indictment, nothing was done until a few days ago. when local company or militia was mustered in to preserve order Since that time the feeling between the law and order clement and the Ball parti- sans, has been growing more intense Yesterday Sheriff Howard announced his intention of resigning, and his successor will take office tomorrow. The manager of the local Western Union office was warned by partisans of the Ball brothers not to receive any more press dispatches, and most of the resident correspondents of metropolitan newspapers refuse to send out dispatches in the interest of their personal safety.
 The hunt for the Balls and their parti- sans is continuing tonight In the neigh borhood of a blind tiger, which 1t is al- legged they have been conducting in Cum berland Gap. but definite reports as to the outcome have not been received.
 Volleys have been plainly heard by the people on the streets of Middlesboro.
 The partisans of the Balls are reported to number forty, and all are well armed, and determined to resist arrest
