A WORLD CONGRESS
The Gathering of the Inter-
national Parliament
The Host Important Act Of the Pre-.
Iiminary Meeting was to COngratu.
late President Roosevelt.

Brussels, Aug. 27.-An unusually
large and representative delegation
from the United States congress is
here to attend the inter- parliamentary
congress which will open here tomor-
now. The parliaments of Europe are
also numerously represented. Among
the American members of congress
present is Mr.. Slayden of Texas.
The American group met this after
noon and adopted the following resolu-
tion. which was adopted and cabled
to President Roosevelt: Assembled
in the cause of the international ar
bitration we send you hearty greetings
and congratulate you upon your COM
mendable and mastery effort in the
cause of peace. which regardless of the
immediate results has challenged the
admiration of the world"
The situation at Portsmouth was the
chief subject of discussion among the
delegates today, sentiment being divid-
ed between commendation of Presi-
dent RooseveIts persistency and the
hope that the ENJOYS might reach
compromise.
Representative BaEtholdt of Missouri
reported to the executive council of the
congress which met this afternoon
under the presidency of NJ. Bernert,
the Belgian minister of state, and adj
wiser to King Leopold. a draft of the
model arbitration treaty and a plan
for a permanent international parIia-
ment. With the aid of the English
members. the plans were referred to a
special commission for final action
prior to the Ceassembhng Of The Hague
conference. The discussion showed
considerable Oposition to arbitration
an the part of the Italian and German
delegates Assurances were given the
other delegations that President Roose-
Helts proposed reassembling at The
Hague would be carried out at the con-
cluston of the Russo-Japanese war.
and this was fortified by a letter from
President Roosevelt showing the posi-
tiveness of the presidents intentions.
In the absence of Mr.. BarCholdt. the
American delegation adopted a resoIu-
ton for presentation to the Norwegian
government asking that noble prize
be conferred on Mr.. Bartholdt in re-
cognitiOn his efforts in behalf OF ar
bifratiOn.

UNLUCKY THIRTEEN
The New Orleans Death
Record Broken
This is Attributed TO a Change to Cool

bar OF Cases.

New Orleans. Aug. 27.-The fever
report to 6 p. m: New cases, 81; total
to date. 1,743; deaths, 13; total to
date, 255; new foci, 12; total to date.
402: remaining under treatment, 1I9.
The record shows the smallest num-
ber of new cases since August and
the largest number of deaths OF any
day since the fever made it's appear
ance. The unusual number of deaths
is attributed in a measure to the
change in the weather. last
night being cool and pleasant in
great contrast to the weather of the
proceeding week. Three well known
merchants are among the new cases.
Only two names that can be traced to
Italian origin are among the new
cases. OF the deaths eight are ItaI-
ianS.
The principal news from outside the
city was the announcement from Nat
chez of the discovery of six cases
there and an attempt to blame New
Orleans for them. This is regarded
as rather strange in view of the fact
that of all the tight quarantines
against New Orleans, Natchez has
maintained the tightest.

KANSAS CITY MARKET
A Review Of Prices and Condition of
the Past Week.

Kansas city, No, Aug. 27.-Cattle
receipts last week 5000 head. against
81, 500 the week before The decrease
was in corn fed cattle and quaran-
tines, while receipts of westerns and
stOckers and feeders was heavier, there
were also plenty of cows and Gamers.
which met a ready sale at stronger
prices The steers and stockers and
feeders sold at 10 to 20 cents lower
during the week The country demand
has been a disappointment up to the
last few days, but since prices have
got down to the present basis, the
movement has been very large. 500
cars went out last week, the largest
week this season, against 376 cars the
previous week. The supply of cattle
yesterday was 1900 head. smallest
to expectations, and indicating a
smaller supply this week than last. The
market is higher on everything except
western grass steers which are steady.
These are mainly from Kansas and
Nebraska pastures, and will sell bet
ter relatively from now on, as they are
killing out better every week. They
bring from $40 to $40, weighing
from 1000 to 1850 pounds Stockers
and feeders sell from $3.50 to 1915,
mainly large number of panhandle
cows yesterday brought s2.35 to $2.65,

ended last week with everything killed
up, and with a better demand from
both the killers and from country buy
ers, together with smaller receipts this
week the outlook is good for higher
prices all around.
Sheep and lamb receipts were so
small up to Friday last week that
traders did not follow outside mar
kets at all, so that statesmen secured
advances regularly every day. A bet

WOULDN'T HEAR OF 1T.
Japanese Protest Against Proposal to
Divide SathaIia.

Toxic. Aug. 27.-The proposal that
Sakhalin be divided between Russia
and Japan is meeting with strong pop
ular opposition here and it is freely
predicted that an acceptance of it
would result in demonstrations
against the government.
The Nichi Nichi declares: peace
under such circumstances would be
imperfect peace must be concluded
Since the island was recovered at the
point of the sword there is no room
render of it. Should our governme
try to conclude peace in the presence
of so many obstacles to effeCting last
ing peace, the result would only be
temporary cessation of hostilities, for
which we would hold our authorities
responsible and Unhesitatingly blame
them. Japan shall adhere to her de-
mands with reference to the payment
of an indemnity and the cession of
territory"
The proposal to divide Sakhalin
the Nichi Nichi says verges on the
absurd.
The Mainichi says: eff the report
ed proposal to divide Sakhalin is true,
it is a most grave and serious danger
to our country. 1t will be impossible
to entertain it as it would only serve
to SOW seeds of further dangers and
Implications. Let us stop the peace
negotiations if the proposals are ser
ously made"

The Conference Will Not
End Before tuesday
A SUNDAY AGREEMENT
Little Hope Held out by Either Side
That Ii Will Survive Any Longer.
Everything Depends Now on Jap
ans Recession.

Portsmouth. Aug. 27.-The life of
the peace conference today seems to
hang by a thread, but the thread will
not be broken tomorrow. At 10 o'clock
tonight, after a conference lasting
three quarters of an hour between NJ.
Takahira and NJ. Witte, in the latter's
room ia the hotel annex, an announce
ment of a postpOnement was made.
NJ. Witte explained to the Associated
Press that NJ. Takahira had told him
that no new instructions had reached
him from Toxic and fearing none
might reach him before the meeting
scheduled for tomorrow afternoon he
had suggested the propriety of post
poning the meeting until Tuesday. To
this NJ. Witte said he had readily as
sented.
NJ. Takahira made the following
statement to the Associated Press:
'1masmuch as this conference was mi
tiated by the friendly office of your
president, after consultation we felt
that we should be cautious about ter
minating its labors."
Pressed as to whether he regarded
the situation as hopeless, NJ. Taxa
hira said: No, not hopeless, but al
most hopeless"
This in itself, from one who has
spoken always in the most guarded
fashion, is sufficient to show the des-
perateness of the situation. The real
crisis in the negotiations is at hand.
1t is very acute, but if it can be tided
over for a few days without a rup-
ture, a basis of peace acceptable to
both sides may come very suddenly.
But to save the situation now. Japan
must speak.
If on Tuesday she has nothing to
offer. all is over. NJ. Witte even if he
would. is pOwerless to take a new
step. His hands are tied. He now
occupies the roll of an imperial mes
senger who transmits his masters or
ders to Baron KOmura, and Baron Ko-
mura turns them over to Toxic for
a response. The conference room has
ceased to be a place for negotiations.
It is simply a place where the en-
perors of the warning countries ex-
change their communications by the
hands of their ENJOYS.
All upon the point of indemnity or
reimbursement of "fraise de guerre"
under any disguise. Emperor Nicholas
has given the japanese emperor his
last word. NJ. Witte accepts it as
final, and in writing yesterday inform
ed the Japanese ENJOYS that Russia
would have nothing further to say
upon this subject. Russia would ccde
half of Sakhalin and pay the cost of
the maintenance of the Russian pris-
oners, but that was all. The czar
has given the same response to the
president through Ambassador Meyer
