INGALLS, SAYS HE'LL RESIGN.

Hyde Remains In Control.


Hyde Remains In Control.
CINCINNATI, June 4.--For Hyde to con-
tinue at the head will mean the rlination
Of the Equitable, was the statement Mel
vile Z. Ingalls, made this afternoon in
discussing the affairs of the Equitable Life
Assurance Society.
i am certainly going to resign from
the board of directors" he said, but Just
when do not know. but it will probab bly, be
in the near future. and the action that
shall take hereafter will be as a policy
which Mr.. Prick was chairman called for
the unqualified resignation Of Messrs.
Alexander, Hyde and Tarbell.
The plan was objected to by Mr.. Schiff,
as he thought it would be difficult thing
to replace the complete set Of officers with
others Who were conversant with the bust
ness. It. was bis opinion that a chairman
Of the board Of directors should be APP
pointed and that all the other officers of the
company should be subservient to him
THE report Of the Frick COMMITTEES was
thrown ont by the votee Of fifteen directors
who are employees Of the Equitable
and who are absolutely the servants of
Hyde and vote simply as he dictates.
These fifteen employees and the Gould fac
ton we're the ones that made it possible
to set aside the committees report.
There will be further effort at the an
nual meeting in January to throw out Mr..
Hyde, but l do not see how that can he
done unless he sells out, and I don't see
how we ca force him to do so.

EestinE Mediat ton to tho Czar-Kaiser
May Have Proposed It-Jspan Has
Not Outlined Any Terms OF Peace.
WASHINGTON, Juno At became known
tonight that exchanges are in progress
between the neutral powers with a view
to devising means whereby Russia may
be cautiously and politely sounded with
reference to accepting mediation In her
war with Japan.
changes were initiated by the Government
OF the United States probably at the in
formal suggestion OF the German Emperor.
It was intimated late this afternoon that
a statement on the subject might be made
at the White House tomorrow.
Baron Won Sternburg. the German Am
bassador. had conference with President
Roosevelt tonight and while the President
and the Ambassador are close personal
friends and frequently meet to discuss
matters that have nothing to do with affairs
Of state, it ia understood that their talk
this evening had to do with peace and that
some definite move was under considera-
ton. Baron Won Sternburg was at the
White House at o o'clock and did not leave
until after II. He declined to make any
statement.
The Government learns that condition
bordering on decentralization exists at st.
Petersburg, and for that reason the author
tiles here realize that the greatest caution
must be exercised in approaching the Gar
and his Ministers with any suggestion
that the time for arranging peace has
arrived.
The exchanges which are now being
made or are about to be instituted are
based on the view that if any direct proposal
we're made to Russia by a neutral power
or combination of neutral powers the
st. Petersburg Government, in its present
state Of mind, might become so incensed
as to make the effort futile and cause a
postponement OF similar overtures for a
long time to come.
Officials of the Government deprecated
the rumors as to the attitude OF the United
States. They maintained that these rumors
might cause resentment in st. Petersburg,
where the probable inclination at this time
Of perturba ton was to put oredence in any
reports emanating from Washington, no
matter how erroneous they might be.
It was learned to-day that the Japanese
Government has not formulated any peace
terms or minated to this Government
the basis upon which she would be Wiling
to accept the mediation OF neutral nation
in bringing about negotiations with Russia

The sighting of the Apache will be well
come news to the friends Of those on board.
For the past couple of days grave anxiety
was felt in many quarters and there even
was vague rumor that the bark had struck
an iceberg and foundered. Friends Of Capt.
Mcdonald. skipper Of the boat. inquired
OF The Sun yesterday if anything was seen
of the vessel and they seemed to fear the
worst. At the New York Yacht Club no
one would say anything on the failure Of
the Apache to reach the Lizard. but it was
apparent that there was an opinion Of some
disaster having befallen the craft
The Apache was last seen by the steam
ship Columbia in longitude $3.50 and lati-
tude 1923. This meant that she stored
a course about $50 miles north Of that sailed
by the Atlantic. which accounts for her not
having been seen by any Of the steamships.
According, to the Government reports.
icebergs were plentiful in the course of the
Apache. and this probably gave rise to the
report that she ran into one and went down.
