New York, June 9---Considerable mer- riment has been caused by strike of paupers in a county almshouse just outside Jersey City. The men detailed to act as bakers organized and elected a walking delegate who notified the county board in charge of the institu- tloa that his fellows would not knead the almshouse dough until their names were put on the payroll with the att tendants and other employees.
 The delegates explained to the com mitteemen that the bakers were enti- tied to pay, because. unlike many other paupers, they do not desert the insti- tuition during the summer months to recuperate at the seashore and in the mountains. but remain at their duties in the baker shop and work faithfully for the county. The committee reject ed the demands and informed the strik- CTS that they would be put to work in the stone quarFies if they did not re- turn to work in the baker shop.

READY FOR PEACE.
Believed that Marshal Oyama win Stay
 His Hmnd


 St. Petersburg. June 9.--(11:35 a. m The Government Is plainly preparing the public for the announcement that the Emperor has decided to conclude peace and that the negotiations have begun by permitting the publication of all foreign dispatches bearing on the | subject The newspapers and the Rus- l sian public have until now only had a suspicion that important moves. were going on behind the scenes
 In well-informed circles 1t is believed that Japan already has instructed Field Marshal Oyama to stay his hand pend. ing the result of the present tentative negotiations. and that General Line- witch also has been confidentially ad- vised of the situation. Nevertheless the irreconcilable, remnants of the war party are believed to be urging the Russian commander tin -chief to assume the offensive in the hope of achieving a victory and thus change the Elm peror's present disposition in favor of the conclusion of hostilities.
 If such an intrigue is in progress. it has no chance of success. It can be assumed that there will be no further bloodshed in Manchuria until the bel ligerents have decided whether 1t is now possible to agree on peace terms. The Government in the present emer. fency is acting with great wisdom.
 It is preparing to time the prociama- tion of a national assembly with the announcement that peace negotiations have begun. The committee of minis ters is hurrying through it's examina. ton of the Bouligin rescript commis- sion's project for the Gosudarslven- naia Duma. Imperial Duma." scheme already outlined in these dispatches, its consideration having commenced yesterday and continuing today.
 Practically no alterations are being S2ade in the text and the Associated Press learns from a prominent Rus sian statesman. conversant with the sit- uation, that the review of the Bou- ligin commissions project is purely for msl as manifesto promulgating a law giving the Russian people a voice in legislation ia already drafted. The in- formant of the Associated Press claims to have seen the original and he ex- poets the law to be proclaimed early next week.

Stockholm, June 9.--Crown Prtnoe Gustav, on his return from Berlin to- day, was met by the royal family, the ministers and a large crowd of people, who cheered him enthusiastically. The city Is decorated with flags.
 King Oscar decided at Q meeting Of the Council of State today to summon the Riksdag for an extraordinary ses~ sion June 30. The Grown Prince was present at the sitting, which had be- fore 1t the resolution of the Norwegian storthing. which the Premier de@ nounces as revolutionary.
 By this revolutionary proceeding said the Premier, 'the Storthing has not only without the cooperation of the King, but without the least con- alteration of Sweden. and on it's own authority. determined upon the rup> ture of the union which existed by vir- tue of a mutual convention drawn up in accordance with the laws aid and which can in no way be broken with out the assent of the two countries. Inasmuch as the resolution of the StOrthing is a great and profound vio- Iation of the rights of Sweden. 1t iS indisputably necessary that the Riks> dag should be summoned in extraor- dinary session without delay to de- liberate on the measures to be taken by Sweden in view of what has passed"
 The resiRnations of the Ministers ok Sweden and Norway at Copenhagen, Rome and Madrid were rendered by telegraph and accepted.

CHEATHAM IN EARNEST
COTTON GROWERS SECRETARY
 REMAINS AT WASHINGTON.
Investigati0n Into Integrity of Crop Statistics Issued by Department of Agriculture-Hyde Not

 1225 c St., N. w..

Washington. June 9.
 Secretary Richard Cheatham of the Southern Cotton Growers Association, said tonight that he did not know how long he might be detained in Wash ington awaiting the results of the tn- formation he had given the Depart ment of Agriculture affecting the in- teRrity of its cotton crop statistics. Tt may not be more than day. he said, and 1t may be a week more
 Secretary Wilson, Mir. Cheatham said. had admitted that 1t was very simple matter to investigate and ought not to take long. The suspension or Assistant Statistician Holmes or the bureau of statistics of the Depart ment, published and bulletined today as n move originated with himself, was mentioned to Mir. Cheatham. His comment was brief but significant.
 "He Is suspended isn't her" spoke the cotton growers representative. '.Did he anticipate anything? Was he only intending to be very nice in the emergency?
 Haryie Jordan of Monticello. Ga. the President of the Association. to come here. which he had requested. but MT. Jordan had asked the Secretary to go ahead with what he had in hand to bring about the investigation, as the President of the Association had en- Ragements already booked ahead for month to address farmers alliance meetingsein Georgia.
 MT. Cheatham belongs to the Ten nessee family of Cheathams and of the Robertson County branch. He has been a planter until recently in De- Soto County, Mississippi.
 The friends of the suspended officer say that he intends to get out into the opeu and fight the charges to a fin- ish. Secretary Wilson denies emphat- ically that hIs son and Secretary Jas per Wilson are in any way involved in the charges. as had been rumored here yesterday.
 Secretary Wilson still adheres to the theory that an actual leak Is impossi- ble and that 1t was good guess if anything went out of the Department. He renews the expressed statement to hush to the end the investigation which has been ordered. secret ser vice man is at work on the case.
 John Hyde, the head of the bureau. was informed that the charges did not involve him and that he might sail for Europe. as he had intended. He is now on the ocean.

FRANCE NOT JEALOUS.
Glad That ROOsev cit Has Taken Peace
 Initiative.

Initiative.
 St. Petersburg, June 9.-M. Bouliron, First Secretary of the French Embas- sy, had a long conference with Foreign Minister Lamsdorff this afternoon and M Bompard, the French Ambassador, is hurrying back from Paris. France. instead of displaying jealousy at the iniative taken by President Roosevelt with a view to bringing Russia and Japan togetheer for peace, has appar- ently warmly welcomed 1t and will give it cooperation. No further definite de- velopment Is now expected until Pres ident Roosevelt returns to Washington from his trip to Virginia.
 When the question of naming peace pIenipotentiarIes is raised the name of George de Stanel. who preceded Count Benckendorf as Russian Ambassador at London, and who was president of the peace conference at The Hague in 1899 at once ocurs to every Russian.
 Notwithstanding the progress already made a great deal of skepticism IS manifested in certain quarters as to the result of President Roosevelts ef- forts. he public seems reluctant to believe that the Emperor could have assented to- anything like movement for peace. The Emperor has cast the die and will make peace if Japan's terms be such that RuEsia can accept -heTn with dignity.
 The Emperor. it must be pointed out. has not sued for peace. He has only assented to a proposition submitted by the head of a friendly power. and the matter officially goes no further than that Russia, now as ever. is ready to sue if a common basis can be reachs l. The commencement of formal peace ne- gotiatiors. especially If coupled with the prompt announcement of the con voking of a national assembly. may avert the threatened crisis which the Liberals are forcing upon the Govern ment, or it may only serve to precip- itate 1t.
 Moscow is now a perfect hotbed of protest against the existing regime, and the address which the deputation from the all-Russian zemstvo Congress held there has brought to St. Peters burg to present to the Emperor, has fully stunned the members of the Gov ernment. Nothing approaching such language used in the document from men of such standing as those who signed 1t has ever been heard in Rus sia. There is peremptory ring about 1t which IS ominous Those bearing the address come to St. Petersburg claiming to be the, plenipotentiaries of

tention. He also discussed the subject with representatives of other import ant powers accredited to this capital. While no intimation of the attitude assumed toward the proposition by either Ambassador Cassini or Minister Takahira is obtainable, 1t is known that other diplomats with whom the President conferred cordially endorsed his intention.
 A formal reply to the note may not be received for several days. but as already made clear. informal assu- rances that 1t would be welcomed al- ready are at hand. In view of the significant character of the document and of the attitude toward 1t which both Russia and Japan have assumed. 1t is regarded in official and diplo- matic circles as the first and decisive step toward ultimate peace.
 At late hour tonight MT. Takahira had not been advised from Tokio of the delivery of the Presidents mes- sage to the Emperor but he was ex- pecting ,cablegram to that effect at any moment.
 The Minister was able yesterday to transmit to the President message from the Mikado that Japan was de- could be obtained under proper condi- tfons. Baron speck won Sternberg. the German Ambassador. has throughout been the Presidents right bower in the negotiations and as the personal envoy of Emperor William has been able from the outset to assure the President absolute and hearty support of the German Emperor in any effort to bring about peace. It can now be stated that for days the German Elm peror has been supplementing the ef- forts of the President by communica- tion with the Czar urging peace. Through the Grand Duke Michael, who attended the wedding of the Grown Prince Of Germany. the Emperor sent the most urgent advice to the Czar that peace in the interest of Russia. be concluded without further hostilities.
 At the Russian embassy tonight Count Cassini remained without advice from St. Petersburg and was unwili- ing to comment on any phase of the situation.

RooseveIt,s College Degrees.

Even before receiving the two doc
torates conferred upon him recently
Theodore Roosevelt had larger col
lection of college degrees than any
of his predecessors in the office of
president of the United States. In
Guiding his B. A.. taken in course at
HARVARD twenty-five years ago, he has
now had bestowed upon him ten titles
to distinction of this kind and is
privileged to write after his name
eight LII. DIS and one L. Fl. D. The
total is just twice the highest num-
Der of honorary degrees given by the
college of the country to any of his
predecessors. Washington. Jefferson
and Mckinley each received five de-
grees. John Adams and Hayes each
received four. Grant received three.
