Duluth, Mimi, July 27.-The disap-

discovery that he is the same man who

BANKS PLAN FOR
RUSS INDEMNITY
Europe's Financiers Confer as to
Payment Of Jap War Claim
.~.---- ---, on Gear.

July Pin view Of the prob
ability Of an early peace between Rus;
STA and Japan, the terms Of which will
involve the payment Of a very heavy
indemnity by Russia, the fnanciers Of
Europe have been holding conferences
to the end that the peace indemnity
may be paid without seriously disturb
ing the finances Of the world. The
Mendelssohns, the Berlin bankers, who
have negotiated many of the Russian
loans, have formed an alliance with the
Rothschilds in respect to the matter
and have held communications with all
the leading financial institutions both
ontthe continent and in England They
are about to send their Representative
tozsNew York with q vieWsto. enlisting
the cooperation of the larger hnanclers
Of the United. States. 1t is likely that
a Russian loan for the purpose Of pay
ing the Indemnity will be scattered,
and that >considera BILE portion Of it
will be taken in the United States. j.

,HYDE'S ABSENCE
HURTS HIS CASE
No Charges Yet Made Against
Former Statistician, but De-
parture Looks Queer.
ey>W., w. Jermane.

Washington, July a7.-It is unfair
to say that any official of the depart
ment Of agriculture has accused for
mer Statistician John Hyde Of com
plicity with the recently unearthed de-
partmental frauds. However, the pre-
vailing impression in the department
is one of surprise and regret that Hyde
should have gone away, practically
within two days, without letting Sec
rotary Wilson or Assistant Secretary
Hays, or anybody. else, know of his
plans. He was expected to remain
here until the grand sjurY could have
an opportunity to get at him, and his
going has, in a sense, crippled the gov
crnment in it's efforts to bring the real
culprits to justice.
Destroyed Confidence.
This action. Of .Hyde2s has in meas
in him. 1t is not yetstimeGto say that
the department thinks him a party to
the frauds, but the officials do think
he should have been brave enough to
remain at home and stand the racket,
whatever itSmight have been. Hisafail-
ure to do this is>a great disappoint-
ment to. his Washington friends, off
cial and otherwise NJ ~. $50 =
No accusations have been brought
against Hyde, beyond. the Fact that his
methods We're 50 loose as 80 make the
work Of the real culprits easier than it
should have been. He is utterly lack
ing in order and system, and his desk is
in the greatest confusion. Many pa
pers that should be there are absent,
and even the papers that are on hand
are tossed about and. mixed up with
Irrelevant reports of 5all kinds.
Grand Jury and Graft.
:. Whether the grand jury: will succeed
in identifying Hyde with the graft is
an open question. No proof against
him has yet appeared, and the most
that may be said is that his unexplained
and unannounced departure from the
country has attracted attention to hin
in a way that is adding nothing to his
reputation. : - -
The suspicion exists that he probably
would not have gone had he been salts
led that he could run the gauntlet of
grand jury inquiry without harm. His
friends, however, say that. his natural
timidity, which is rank cowardice at
times. has controlled him in this case,
and that his going away is not an evi,
dence of guilt. Meanwhile, however.
the inquiries now under way by Pro
.fessor Hayes and the grand iury will
probe a. little deeper into HYDE IS per-
sonal case than otherwise they would
have done. :.
