Believes Peace MAY Result.

Berlin, Jan. S.-The Duetsch Reich
Correspondence, which, as is we'll
known, maintains a close personal re-
lation with Chancellor Won Buelow,
discusses the fall of Port Arthur as
facilitating the progress toward peace.
1t thinks that the chivalry shown by
General Nogi in the terms allowed
General Stoessell will probably make
an impression at st. Petersburg,
which later on will hasten an agree
ment between the belligerents with
out intermediation of third party.
1t adds that while hostil1ties undoubt-
edly will continue in Manchuria, the
almost conciliatory termination of the
heroic drama at Port Arthur will make
it easier to resume diplomatic rela.
tions at suitable juncture.

Paris Diplomat Talks.

Paris, Jan. S-After comforting with
Foreign Minister Delcasse, a leading
diplomat said yesterday that media
ton in the Japanese Russian war
would be as unacceptable to Russia
now as it would have been to the
north after the defeat OF Bull Run.
ihe belief is growing that Great Brit
aims anxiety for mediation is not en-
tirely disinterested. A British official
recently said:
IF Europe or America does not in
tervene, Japan and Russia will make
their terms of peace without consult
ing Europe or America
This leads diplomats to say that
Great Britain is less desirous OF
peace than to secure voice in the
terms of peace.

Commissioners Refuse to Turn Boxes


Denver, Jan. 8.--1he election com
| missioners OF Denver late Saturday
| night refused to turn over to the legis-
lative committee OF l5, appointed Fri
day, any OF the ballot boxes in their
possession.
Yesterday morning Attorney John
M. Waldron, representing the commit,
tee, applied to the supreme court for
an order on the commissioners, direct
ing them to surrender to the commit
tee certain ballot boxes. Senator L.
M Patterson, appearing for the com.
missioners, requested until 10 o'clock
Monday morning to answer the petit
tion'.t He was given until O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. During the de.
bate the argument between the two
attorneys became so heated that
Chief Justice Gabbert directed a bal
lift to get between the two men, who
stood face to face, arguing fiercely.
Nice Little Scrap.
Mr.. Waldron in upholding his legal
contention, cited local case in which
the supreme court had taken action,
and alluded to man whose name he
mentioned as friend of Senator Pat
terson.
If you say he was friend of mine,
you say what is not true" said the
senator.
''He was a friend of yours
He never was friend of mine"
The senator arose and approached
Mr.. Waldron and the two men stood
with their noses apout six inches
apart.
Wasn't he friend OF yours?"
NO, he never was. l have always
fought him.
s'Mr. Bailiff, get between those two
men, said the chief justice.
BailiH as Peacemaker.
The bailiff stepped between them
and pushed Senator Patterson gently
back into his seat.
IF you two men cannot act as at
torneys and gentlemen should said
Chief Justice Gabbert, I'VE will not
hear either OF you''
Quiet was restored by the chief JUS
tice and the argument proceeded until |
the noon adjournment hour
When the court convened at q |
O'Clock Chief Justice Gabbert announc-
ed that the election commissioners
were properly officers of the court and
as such it was their duty to turn over
to the legislative committee the bal
lot boxes used at the last election,
and he would therefore issue an order
to that effect.
Lets 1t Go at That.
Justice Gabbert declined to make a
'uling concerning the legality of Fri
lays proceedings in the house, which

committee of is, saying it was not the

Hear of Fall of Port Arthur.

Mukden, Jan. 6, via Peking, Jan. T.
Though the news of Port Arthur's
capture was first generally known
here today, it was slTmised by Rus
slams from demonstrations of the Jap
anese along the entire line, when the
cries of 'banzia" were distinctly
heard. The news created no surprise,
because the army has become accus-
toned to the possibility of Port Ar
thurs fall from before the battle OF
Liao Yang and since. While concern
ed at the disaster, the Russians are
lost in admiration of the wonderful
and unexampled defense. Although
the deaths of Generals E'ock and Kon-
dratenko were not published here, the
facts regarding Fock has been accept
ed for six weeks and the condition OF
Port Arthur was known throughout.
