THE LAW ENFoRcED-I.ast

THE LAW ENFoRCED-Last Mon
day a week. the internal revenue de-
partment commenced the strict en-
forcement of the law prohibiting the
use of empty cigar boxes for display
purposes by cigar dealers and hereaf-
ter Silver City dealers In the fra
grant leaf will have to relegate their
empty cigar boxes to the cellar. Ac-
cording to the order, it is unlawful
for any dealer to make any use Of
empty cigar boxes If there remains
upon the box, either the government
revenue stamp, the caution notice re-
quired on all boxes, or the brand mark
including the factory and federal dis
trict number. The department claims
that of late years, the use Of empty
boxes for display purposes has become
too general and that it tends to sug-
gest or encourage the unlawful filling
of the boxes.

CRUSHED TO DEATH-Charles
Tatton, late of Cassville, Mo-, who has
been living for several weeks with
his brother in a tent at 511 South High
street, was caught beneath a caving
sand bank in the foothills near his
home at $3.50 Saturday afternoon and
received injuries of which he died two
hours later, says the Albuquerque

caught the full force of the falling
bank, did not recover consciousness.
He received almost instant rescue
from the sand, and DR.. e. N. Wilson,
who was on the ground an instant af-

The Curious Travel to
Scene Of haCkett Murder.
Officials Hard at Work on the
Case but Are Not Talking.
CIaiNoyant Gives Interesting Details, Some
Seemingly Accurate.

Readfield. Me. Aug. 27.-(SpeciaD.
Interest in the Hackett murder con-
tinues undated throughout the sur
rounding country. Today. the place
where the body was found has been
the mecca of scores upon scores of
curious observers. People have come
on foot, in teams, and in automobiles,
many from distances Of from 20 to 30
miles, in order to look upon the spot,
now marked with wooden monu-
ment where the crime was committed.
The officials are apparently hard at
work upon the case. but to the obser-
yer from the outside it appears that
they are not making rapid progress.
Certain it is that whatever informal
ton they have obtained, is not design
ed by them for publication.
Many persons have suggested that
the services of clairvoyant be en-
gagged, and one man, having the cour-
age of his convictions. consulted a
well-known clairvoyant.
This clairvoyant stated that the
crime was committed by woman,
with the assistance of man; that up
to the time Mr. Hackett found the
body of his daughter. the man was
sitting in clump of bushes only a
few feet away.
She further stated that this man
had been reading a letter which he
had folded up, torn into pieces, and
thrown the pieces into bunch of
cIxy 40 clairunyant also
stated that there was a square rock
about a foot in height. near the scene
of the murder, from which the man
had taken the letter.
AS soon as possible after the inter-
view with the clairvoyant this man
in company with another, repaired to
the scene of the crime, and made
careful search in the bushes. Near
the place where the body lay a clump
of bushes was found in which there
was evidence of someone having been
seated, and nearby, in another clump.
a piece Of paper, torn from the upper
left hand corner of a letter. The let
ter was evidently written in a wo
mans hand and this piece contained
the beginning of the first three lines.
The first word in each of the three
line was plainly visible. In the first.
the word was sweet" in the second,
you" and in the third you" No
other pieces were found at this time,
but it was later ascertained that an
other searcher had discovered four
pieces and had taken them away with
him.

Portsmouth, n. H., Aug. 27.-The
life of the peace conference. today.
seems to hang by thread, but the
thread will not be broken, tomorrow
At 10 o'clock. tonight. after a two
hours conference between Mr.. Taxa
hira and NJ. White in the latter's room
i'll the hotel annex, the announcement
of the postponement was made. NJ.
White explained to The Associated
Press that Mr.. Takahira had told him
that no new instructions had reached
him from Toxic and fearing none
might be received before the meeting,
tomorrow, he had suggested the pro-
priety of postponing the meeting until
Tuesday To this NJ. White said he had
readily assented. Mr.. Takahira made
the following statement to The Asso-
ciated Press:
"Inasmuch as this conference was in
itiated by the friendly offices of your
President after consultation, we felt
that we should be cautious about ter
minating it's labors."
Pressed as to whether he regarded
the situation as hopeless, Mr.. Takahira
said:
mo- not hopeless but almost hope
less
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 rupture,
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 had nothing
to Offer all is over.
NJ. WHITE even if he would. is pow
erlesS to make new step. His hands
are tied. He now occupies the role
of an imperial messenger who trans
mits his masters orders to Baron
komuro. And Baron Komura turns
them over to Toxic for the response.
The conference room has ceased to be
a place for negotiations. 1t is simply
the place where the Emperors of the
warning countries exchange their COM
munications by the hands of their en-
voys.
And upon the point Of indemnity or
reimbursement of frais de guerre"
under any disguise Emperor Nicholas
has given the Nikado his last word.
M. White accepts it as final and in
writing, yesterday. informed the Jap
anese plenipotentiaries that Russia
would have nothing further to say
upon the subject. Russia would cede
half of Sakhalin and pay the cost of
the maintenance of the Russian pris-
oners but that was all. Emperor
Nicholas had given the same response
to the President through Ambassador
Meyer.
The Russians generally seem not
displeased with the situation. They
believe Japan has been automatically
manoeuvred into a corner from which,

exact tribute with the alternative Of
continuation of the war. she cannot

extricate herself before the public
opinion of the world. Japan here and
in Europe, they say, appealed for SYM
pathy on the ground that Russia had
compelled her to take up arms to pro-
tect her life.s The fortune of war had
gone in her favor and Russia, recog-
nizing that she had been beaten and
preferring peace to the continuation Of
the war, had agreed to cede upon
every point involved in the quarrel
She was willing to allow Japan full
swing in Corea, she was willing to get
out of Manchuria bag and baggage and
| commit herself to the recognition Of
| China's integrity and the policy Of "the
open door" But Japan insists upon tri-
butte and because Russia refused pro-
longs the carnage in that act, they con-
tend Japan would change the purpose
and character of the war which would
cease to be a longer one of principal
but degenerate into a war for the ex-
action of money.
There is no doubt that the japanese
are worried over this aspect of the sit

placed in this position if 1t can be helped.

yond what would be obtained for the
maintenance of Russian prisoners and
the Chinese Eastern Railroad could not
be foregone. But If redemption by Rus
STA could be placed upon purely COM
mercial basis, Russia might agree to 1t.
Logic points in this direction for the
ultimate compromise If there is to be
one.
Whether the President has renewed his
efforts cannot be ascertained here. His
former suggestion for a compromise
failed. He made his appeal simultan-
eously to both the Gar and the Mikado.
he proposed the MISUNDERSTANDING
combination but not in the form in which
it was presented by Baron Komura at
Wednesdays meeting. Instead Of setting
