seattle, Wash, Aug. 29.-Thomas
F. Ryan, the fnancier of New York
city, who recently acquired the con.

Assurance society of New York, in an
Interview here with the Associated
Press said in part: "The manage.
ment of all the great life insurance
companies must become an open
book, or confidence, which is the very
foundation on which they rest, will
not be soon restored. The federal
government should have practically
the same supervision of life insur.
ance compa MES as it has over ma.
nonal banks. The officers and man
ayers of these companies have in
their keeping trust of the most sac.
red character and they should not OBJ

JAPAN HAS AGREED
TO AN ARMIST|CE

St. Petersburg, Sept. 1.-The Asso-

that the report emanating from
Portsmouth to the effect that the
war party is urging the emperor to
repudiate the treaty Of peace is un-
true. and absurd.
All the necessary maneuvers for
putting an armistice into effect have
been taken but 1t is impossible to
put them into actual operation in the
absence of an understanding with the
Japanese.
Portsmouth, N. H.. Sept. Japan,
through Baron Komura, has agreed
to the immediate conclusion of an
armistice. At IL o'clock last night
Mr.. Takahira went to Baron de
Rosen's room and explained that he
and Baron Komura received instruc-
lions to arrange terms Of an arms
tice. Baron de Rosen Immediately
communicated with M. White and it
is probable that a meeting will be
held today for the proclamation Of a
complete suspension of hostilities pre-.
liminary to the arrangement by the
dedails by the two generals upon the

Recommends More MARRIAGES.

Boston, Aug. 3Q-The race suicide
question has been officially taken up
in Massachusetts by Charles FELTON,
Pidgin, who is in charge of the state
census now in progress. He is going
to camp on the trail of the man with
the small family and discover a few
things, which Mr.. Pidgin believes will
help the state. Mr.. Pidgin has an
idea that the fact that the popula-
ton does not increase is to be blamed
more upon men who refuse to wed
than upon small families. A list OF
questions has been prepared for the
women of the estate to determin
whether or not the same birth rate
exists among married women of the
state as among the married women
of other states. If the rates are
equal, Mr.. Pidgin says it is evidence
that marriages in Massachusetts are
later or fewer than in other, states.
If it is evident after the returns are
all in that the married folk Of the
state are doing their duty by the
commonwealth then it will be the
duty of the lawmakers to devise some
plan whereby the great unmarried
division may be lured or coerced into
matrimony.

.BABY'S COUGH SAVES
TIE LIVES OF THREE

Grinnell, Aug. 31.-A baby's cough
saved the lives of DR.. T. E. Somers,
his wife and child early this morning
when the Somer's hospital was pr;Sc-
tically destroyed by fire.
DR.. Somers and his wife were
sleeping soundly at 3: 80 o'clock when
the baby's cough awakened them, and
investigating, they found the entire
top of the hospital afire. The family
managed to escape before the burn.
ing roof fell upon them, but they were
almost asphyxiated by the dense
smoke before reaching the ground.
The building is almost total loss.
Fortunately there were no patients in
the hospital at the time. The loss
will be $4,000. The roof is believed
to have been ignited by an electric
wire. u. /
