PLANS RACE TO THE POLE.
Dr.. WeatheriII Would Fit Out Rival to
Peary Expedition.

Philadelphia, Pa, July 17.-Dr. Hen
ry Emerson Weatherill of this city who
offered to go with Commodore Peary
as surgeon, now plans a race with the
naval officer to the pole, in the near
future. 1t 1t DR.. Weatherill's idea to
organize Immediately polar expeai-
ton, which would endeavor to reach
the pole ahead of Peary.
Dr. Weatherill would not go to the
north pole by the same route as Peary,
nor would he depend upon the same
methods to accomplish his end. He
has great belief in the advantage of his
plan over that Of Peary. "Peary" he
said. "has one chance out of hundred
to reach the pole. I have one chance
out of four"
Peary's plan is to go as far north as
he can with the Roosevelt and his two
auxiliary vessels, the Eric and the
Windward, and then make the remain
der of the voyage by sled Weatherill
would adopt Nansen's plan of going
around to the north of Siberia ana,
after getting caught in the ice flow,

sci would be carried to the pole. Many
scientists are of the opinion that the
ice goes to the pole or within q COM

DR.. Weatherill yesterday and know

Russian Newspaper Close to the
Government Makes An I'm
portant Statement
Japan MUST BE MODERATE
dignity and Vital Interests Of Russia
Must Not Be Affected by Terms
which Japan Demands Backing Of
European Countries in This Position
Claimed.
"A BIG BIG! PAPER

st. Petersburg, July II. Novoe
Nremya today prints the following
statement of Russia's position, which
NAV be inspired: Russia cannot
consent only to such peace as will not
affect the dignity or vital interests of
the empire. To act otherwise would
be fatal to Russia, and would threaten
all Europe. Europe no longer believes
IN Japan's assurances that she will rot
restrict European interests in the far
east. Even in England and America
the voices Of moral instigators can,
be heard in favor OF indirect in.erfer-
Aence OF the powers to moderate Japan's
demands. Our plenipotentiaries must
remember that they must defend the
interests not only Of Russia, but also
OF other Caucasion powers and they
will find moral support in Berlin, Par
is, Washington and perhaps even in
london. Our army in the field is much
stronger than It was fifteen months
ago. Hamburger Nachrichten pro-
poses that Europe intimate to Japan
that extreme demands will be resisted
by Europe in general, especially in
Germany. This is a valuable state
ment. We must ascertain acceptance
sof the maximum Of our concessions to
Japan from a European point Of view
and act accordingly {

KING OSCARS VIEW
He Reiterates Hope. That Sweden Will
Remain Calm at ths Present Crisis
and Says It Would be Folly te Force
Norway to Remain in the Union.

Berlin, July 17.-Dr. Hugo CAM,
correspondent of the Frankfort Zei-
itung has had an interview with King
Oscar at Stockholm, during which his
majesty said he admired the way in
which the Norwegians won to their
side all the European publicans with
out, however, benefiting their cause.
The king denied he had precipitated
the crisis by declining to accept the
resignation of the Norwegian cabinet
for the Norwegians themselves had
declared that whoever adopted the
portfolio would cease to be a Norweg-
ian.
The correspondent remarked he had
heard only words of respect for the
king in Norway to which his majesty
replied:
For my part have forgiven the
Norwegians and hope to God that the
Swedish people will also remain calm
for it would only be hanging mill
stone about our necks to restore the
union forcibly."
The king also said the appointing of
a Swedish prince to the Norwegian
throne would certainly be the simplest
solution of the difficulty, but the re-
suit would be distrust in Sweden or
in Norway.

BANK WINS A POINT

Court Discharges Receiver for United
States Bank at st. Louis, Claiming
the Application Was Made Without
Duo Investigation Of Banks condi-
ton.
st, Louis, July 17.-On motion OF the
attorneys for the Peoples United
States Bank, capitalized at two and
one-half millions. Judge McElhinney
of the circuit court today dissolved
the receivership for that institution,
and discharged Receiver Spencer, ap-
pointed by him several days ago, on
request of Secretary of State Swanger.
Judge McElhinney's action was bas-
ed upon the ground that the secretary
of state failed to make personal in
yestigation of the affairs of the bank
before making application for re-
ceiver. The court stated the receiver
had been appointed on representations,
which, it had developed, were based by
Secretary Swanger on his impression
of conditions prevailing at the bank
and its method of conducting it's bus
mess and not on facts secured thru an
investigation.

HELD UP BY BEAST
Fierce South American Jusuar Escapes

is Tied Up While His Capture is
Effected.

Colorado Springs, Col, July IL.
More than 1000 people and four pas
senger trains on the Colorado Midland
railroad have been held at the tunnel,
two miles from Manitou, by a fierce
South American juguar. Before he
was captured the animal clawed Joseph
Bennett of this city, cutting a severe
cash across the leg. A Miss Delman
became frightened and in endeavoring
to scale a high cliff fell distance of
twenty feet, breaking her leg. The ju-
guar and polar bear occupied two
compartments in a large cage loaded
upon fiat car train belonging to a;
circus. The cage was too large to en-
ter the mouth of the tunnel and as the
cage struck the roof of the tunnel 1t
was torn off and the juguar escaped.
After some effort, in which Bennett
was injured, the animal was captured
and placed in cage.
