PRELIMINARY
CONFERENCE
Between Russian and Japanese
Peace ENJOYS is Held This
Morning
THE FORMAL MEETINGS
Will Commsnce Tomorrow...Ffench and
English Language Will Be Used at
All the Sessions. e.

Portsmouth, n. H., Aug. 9.-Ths
first session of the peace conference
has been concluded. 1t lasted about
an hour. No business was done be
sides exchanging credentials and ar.
ranging Il program for the future ses.
SionS
Shortly after the plenipotentiaries
was learned that Mr.. Witte and Bar
on Komura exchanged compliments,
the latter, however, using Mr. Honda
as an interpreter, as neither Baron
komura nor Mr.. Takahira are very
familiar with French, while Mr.. Witte,
although understanding English in
reading, cannot speak it. Immediate
Iy after this formality the ENJOYS pro-
ceeded to exchange their credentials.
The first points to be considered were
the determination of the official lam
guage or languages to be used and
then taking up the program to be
followed each day. Russia prefers
French and Japan English.
The ENJOYS agreed that the English
and the French languages shall be
used jointly and the official minutes
shall be recorded in both languages.
On behalf of Baron Komura and Mr..
Takahari, Mr.. Sato handed the fol-
lowing official statement regarding
the mornings meeting:
"Today's meeting was informal for
I hp nurDOSa of cattlinp tha mathod of
procedure and it was decided that the
formal meetings will commence to-
morrow morning at $780, The meet
ings will be held twice day, one
from $3.50 to 1890 and the other from
3 to $50 or O'Clock in the after
noon, subject to notifications as may
oe agreed upon later. No serious bus
mess was transacted during this morn
ing's session"

Wan, THROUGH MAIL CONTRACTS.
The Santa Fe and Rock island Roads
Object to Dividing Haul From
Chicago With Burlington.

Kansas City, Aug 9-The mail con
in locating the new union depot, as
the Santa Fe and the Rock Island
Railways have no desire to assist in
any move which would make the Bur-
lington's mail contract stronger This
is now a contest of long years stand
ing, and each year more money is in
volved as the weight of mail increases.
Under the ruling of the postoffice
department the pioneer road gets the
mail SO long as favorable connecting
schedule is maintained. This means
that the Burlington road, having line
between Chicago and Kansas City be-
fore either the Rock Island or the
Santa Fe, gets preference of mail
weights from Chicago through Kansas
City. Not only does this apply to
Kansas City local mail, but it also ap-
plies to mail intended for all points
west on the Santa Fe and the Rock
island. A letter to Guthrie, Oklahoma,
or to Santa Fe points in New Mexico
must come to Kansas City over the
Burlington, transfer here to the Santa
Fe and then proceed to it's destination.
A letter to Marion or to El Reno from
chicago must come here over the Bur
lington and transfer to the Rock Is
land.
The officials of the Rock Island and
the Santa Fe insist that line should
handle for all possible mileage the
mail to be delivered by it. If the Bur-
lington is late into Kansas City the
trains west on the santa Fe and the
Rock Island leave on time. Connec-
tion is not made and the mail intend
ed for the west is delayed in Kansas
City twelve hours, which to the busi-
ness man for whom it is intended Of
ten means twenty-Iour hours. The
Rock Island officials have insisted
that mail out of Chicago intended for
points on their line west of Kansas
City should be given to the Rock Is
land at Chicago; that the Rock Island
conects with itse.I at Kansas City, and
II the Chicago train was late into this
place, connection would be made nev-
ertheless and the mail would reach
its western destination much earlier
than when connection is missed with
the Burlington. The same argument
is put up by the Santa Fe officials, but
so far it has never appealed to- the
.postoffice department.

Moved to Make Protest.

New Orleans, Aug. 9.-The greatest
cleaning campaign ever made was in
augurated here early today. Besides
the paid laborers and the prisoners
from the jails, thousands of volunteers
took off their coats and went to work
to give New Orleans thorough scrub

thus complaining. The latter is on
the Texas border and because of the
lexas quarantine mas not had a train

In fact while pastor of St. Matthew'S
Church in Washington, his sermons
were always attended by many non-
Catholics on this account. He was
one of the great men of the Catholic
Church during the last 20 years. He
was a gentle and lovable man, very
charitable, modest, a true bishop of
his fiocks, considerate towards other
religious denominations, a man of a
great brain, of a kind heart and a
true lover of humanity for whose ad-
vancement he worked consistently
and cheerfully from his boyhood. The
dead Archbishop was not only pre-
late of the highest standing in the
church but also was a man among
men in the truest sense of the word.
He will surely reap the reward that
ought to come to a career like his.

Death List May Be Less Than at
First Feared.

Albany, N. Y, Aug. "a thorough
search carried on since early morning
has revealed the fact that all the men
and all but one woman employed in
the store are accounted for. About
thirty cash boys out of rs have not
yet reportedbut it is thought scarcely
possible that many of them are in the
ruins, for the proportion of boys thus
far known to be killed and injured is
small. These facts lead to the belief
that the number of deaths will prove
considerably less than was at first
feared.
