The Archbishop's Funeral.

New Orleans, La, Aug. lin
order that no unnecessary risks
might be taken IL was announced
both by Surgeon White and by Faith
er Scott. in charge of the arrange
ments. that the funeral of the late
Archbishop Cbapelle Saturday will
be private. DR.. White said it was a
fact accepted by scientists that yell
low fever could not be transmitted
by a corpse but it is considered there
would DE some element of danger in
attracting to the cathedral an i'm
mense asemblage of people from all
sections of the city. The cathedral
is located within the originally in
fected district within a stones throw
of the French market and there has
been fever on all sides of it.
Yesterday solemn requiem mass
was said in honor of the dead arch
bishop The body rested on bier in
the main aisle and II was found that
the remains were sufficiently preserv-
ed to permit the removal of the me-
tallic covering. Many people viewed
the remains through the glass.
With the death rate remaining To-
wer than in the previous visitations
of the fever. the feeling here among
both the health authorities and the
laity continues hopeful. Physicians
realize that two months or more
remain during which the dis
ease may have to be combatted and
they are unwilling to express opin-
ionsest this time as to the scope II
may take later on.

The Peace Terms.

Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. IL
Reimbursement for expenses sus-
tanned in the prosecution of the war
and cession of the Island of Sakhalin
constitute the main features OF the
peace conditions handed by Komura
to Witte yesterday. The word Gin
demnity" is carefully avoided the
term employed being reimburse
ment" for the cost Of the war. No
sum is fixed. the amount being dis
tinctly adjourned for mutual adjust
ment between the two countries after
the Japanese expenditures has been
ascertained. These are the two all
important conditions and those which
the Russian plenipotentiaries find
absolutely unacceptable. Unaccepta-
BILE as they are however, 1t can be
stated that these two principal con-
ditions did not come as a surprise to
the Russian plenipotentiaries.
Certainly the danger of sudden rup-
ture, no matter what the ultimate re-
suit may be, is precluded by yester-
days development. The other terms
are substantially what the world ex-
pected and with one or perhaps two
exceptions could probably be enter
tanned as basis of negotiations. They
include Cession of the Russian
leases to the Lao Tung peninsula
comprising Port Arthur and Dalny;
evacuation of Manchuria, retroces-
sion to China of any privilege Russia
may have in the province and recog-
milton by Russia of the principle of
the "open door" cession to Japan of
the Chinese eastern railroad below
Hardin, the main line through north
ern Manchuria to vladivostok to re-
main Russian property; recognition
of the japanese protectorate over Ko-
rea; grant of fishing rights to japan
in the waters of the Siberian littora,
northward from Vladlvostok to Beh-
ring sea; relinquishment to Japan
of Russian warships interned in neu-
trail ports; finally a limitation upon
the naval strength of Russia in the
far eastern waters.
As a whole the terms are regarded
as exceedingly hard by the Russians.
In addition to the two principal con-
dltions which cannot be accepted un.
der Whites instructions those relat-
ing to limiting of Russia's naval pow
er in the far east and granting OF
fishing rights upon the Russian lit
toral are considered particularly Of
fensive to the amor propre of their
country and of such humiliating
