cation of the situation and last night
said that so far as he could see there
remained nothing to be done here ex.

conducted the quarantine during his
absence
Dr. Egan said that he and Dr. Jones
had decided that now was the most
critical period for the yellow fever
and that any relaxation OF the meth.
DDS now in force would be decided un

In wreck of the official train of the
knights of Columbus, bearing 240 dele
gates and members of the supreme
council to the national convention, on
the Salt Lake road near Las Vegas.
Nev Sunday afternoon, five passengers
were injured a number of others
bruised and the dining and observation
cars all but demolished, Railway Off
cials say the escape Of the other pas
sengers was almost miraculous.
News of the accident was suppressed
by officials and those of the order until
the train reached Los Angeles, when
1t was made public by one of the dele
gates.
The accident was caused by spread
ing rails, and that a long death
list did not follow, was because of the
slow speed at which the train was
running and the quick action of din
ing car conductor, j. b. Shippey, who
applied the emergency brake, which
cut off the derailed cars from those
ahead and prevented the diner AMI
observation car from rolling down a
thirty-foot embankment.
Shippleys action received the warm
est praise from the knights, who have

CONSTANT CONFERENCES
Peace Subject of Long Consultations at
White House
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press
WASHINGTON, June 5.-Peace in
the far east was the subject of another
conference at the White House between
the president and Mr. Takahira, the
Japanese minister 1t was the third
conference of the day which the presi-
dent had on this subject, NJ. Jasserand,
the French ambassador, and Mr..
Obierne, British charge d'affaires, hav-
ing been callers at the White House
this morning.
Accompanied by Count Hirosawa,
a Japanese nobleman who is travelling
in this country; by Commander Take
shira, the Japanese naval attache, and
four Japanese naval officers who are
here on their way from Toxic to Eng
land to inspect the work on Japanese
warships now under construction in
British shipyards, Mr.. Takahira called
at the White House shortly after 8
o'clock tonight. Naturally the president
was greatly interested in meeting the
Japanese visitors, and gave them a
lilOSlasCOlu ICCtpllOll. MS, ilOWtNSI,
did not last long, and soon the visitors
took their departure, leaving the presi-
dent and Mr. Takahira free to talk of
peace.
Thus far the minister has not been
able to tell the president, except in the
most general and unofficial way, what
Japan is likely to demand of Russia
when the latter can be brought to dis
cuss peace. Even the minister himself
has no idea what Japan's indemnity
may amount to. The president was
unable to give Mr.. Takahira any inti-
nation of how Russia has viewed the
annihilation of her fleet, and until Count
Cassini's report on his visit to the White
House has been replied to from St.
Petersburg no further progress toward
peace can be made in that direction.
War Party in Japan
Meantime, with the assistance of Mr..
Takahira, the president is acquainting
himself as fully as possible with the
views of the japanese government on
the subject of peace. 1t is realized by
the washington government that the
mikado has a formidable war party in
Japan to cope with and this is one of
the reasons why it is difficult for Toxic
to give Washington definite informa-
tion about what the terms would be in
the light of Admiral Togo's latest vic
tory.
Regarding the general situation it
can be announced that Europe regards
the president as the most available
medium for the preliminary communi-
cations between ST. Petersburg and To-

STILL BENT ON WAR
Presidents Friendly Spirit Recognized
but Producing No Result


BY Associated Press
ST. PETERSBURG, June 5.-The in
terview between President Roosevelt
and Ambassador Cassni at Washington
regarding peace in the far east has not
borne fruit here. Foreign Minister
Lamsdorff has not yet visited Tsar-
skoe-Selo, but will lay Count Cassini's
dispatch before the emperor tomorrow,
the regular audience day.
The Associated Press was informed
at the foreign office that Count Cas-
sini's report places the whole conver-
sation in purely informal light and
1t Is expected that Russia's answer
will be returned in an equally informal
manner.
The officials did not hesitate to ex-
press the opinion that the determine
ton to continue the war was fixed and
definite. They seemed pleased with
President Roosevelts friendly spirit,
which was manifested in such man.
ner as not to require formal reply.
Ambassador Meyer did not receive any
dispatches on the subject during the
day, and, after the f1utter of excite
ment in diplomatic circles caused by
the press dispatches regarding the
Washington interview, the representa-
tiVes OF the powers here are disposed
to look upon the attempts to end the
war as fruitless until after a land bat
tie at least.

Claim Agent w. c. Hussey of the Salt
Lake road, who by chance was on the
scene a short time after the accident
occurred, said last night:
"In all my life as a claim agent l
have never yet seen a wreck where
there was possible such loss of life
and where so few were injured. 1t is
almost miraculous. Miss Fitzgerald
and James T. Fitzgerald are the most
severely injured, but theirs are not
major injuries. The rest are only
bruised or shaken up"
Salt. Lake officials refused to give
out the names of those with whom its
agents had adjusted claims.
The wrecked cars were left standing
across the track and the excursion
train continued on its way to Las We
gas. where a diner and Pullman car
were detached from the regular east
ern train and added to the special.
At Caliente, where a stop of nearly
half an hour was made, there was a
rush of eXcursionists TO the station to
telegraph friends of the news of the
wreck and of the safety of the trav-
elers. With nearly fifty messages filed
for sending, the operator was told by
Supreme Knight Edward L. Hearn rSt
TO send them nor to receive others.
Then personally he returned the mes
sages to the writer's, explaining that
they would be misinterpreted by friends
and the safe way would be to telegraph
on arrival In Los Angeles that they
