Representative Dead.

Denver, Jan. "a dispatch from
Holly. Colo, last night says: Hon. S.
II. White, float representative of Las
Animas, Bent and Prowers counties,
died suddenly last night of stomach
trouble. He was born in Coloma, Wis
consin, in 1850, and moved to Mont
gomery county, Kansas, in 1870, where
he was engaged in the general mer-
chandise business for several years.
While there he also served as a dep
uty sheriff. He moved to western
Kansas in 1887 and was admitted to
the bar in 1888. He was county attor-
ney for Greeley county, Kansas, sew
eral years.
Mr.. White moved to Holly, Colorado,
in 1898 and conducted general mer-
chandise store here. He was promi-
nent in political and business circles
and was the nrst mayor of Holly. Mr..
White was elected representative on
the Republican ticket at the last cleo
ton. He was a man of strong charac-
ter and integrity and the loss to the
community and to the Legislature will
be greatly felt. The body was sent to
Longton, Kansas. to-day for burial
there.

Killed in Wreck.

Denver, Jan. "a Republican spe-

Rio Grande freight train left the track
at a point about twenty-five miles west
of Alamosa this morning and Engineer
Warner Campbell. and Fireman Bert
Martin were killed. Two cars were
derailed, but no one else was injured.
Campbell's body was terribly mangled
and death was instantaneous. Martin
jumped and struck on his head. He
lived about twenty minutes. Both men
were single.
Campbell's parents lived in Louis
Vile, Kentucky, and Martins parents
on ranch near Alamosa. Campbell
was a member of the Ellxs and Knights
Templars.

TALK OF PEACE
WITH wARLIkE INDICATIONS
Emperor Nicholas and His Advisers in
counciI--Japan Expected to
Make Peace Proposals.

st. Petersburg. Jan. 8, 2:10 a. m.-
las has been holding with members Of
the council of the empire, NJ. Witte
and other members and advisers, on
the internal and external situations
ing else has occurred which would IN
dicate that the government is pre-
pared to depart from its present pro-
gram of continuing the war to the bit
ter end.
Nevertheless talk of peace was
heard Sunday in many quarters, the
foundation for it being ascribed to For
eign Minister Lamsdorff's alleged po-
sition in favor of such a course on the
ground that, aside from the humilia-
ton to military prestige involved. 1t
would mean the REIMBURSEMENT of
Manchuria, to which Russia already is
formally pledged.
There is no confirmation of this
statement of Count Lamsdorff's posi-
ton beyond the general knowledge that
he always has belonged to the peace
party. 1t is quite probable that the
peace talk gossip has been produced
by the arrival of foreign papers, as it
receives no encouragement in respon-
sfble quarters here.
The belief which existed in excep-
tionally well informed diplomatic cir
cles that Japan would follow the fall
of Port Arthur with moderate peace
propositions has not been realized. Up
to the present time nothing has
reached the government either through
the United States or other channels.
Diplomats here cannot figure out
the general lines of a treaty at this
juncture which both the belligerents
could accept, but realize that If Japan
makes any sort of offer. unless it is
rejected outright as not entertainable,
negotiations will be opened, and nego-
tiations once entered upon friends of
both parties could use their good Of
fees to bring about terms. This is the
only hope for termination of the war
which diplomats can see.
