MYSTERIOUS PEACE RUMoR.
It is Reported that the United States
 Will Be Go Between.

St Petersburg. April 24.-Mysterious rumors of another attempt at peace ne gotiations impending are in circulation in high quarters. The United States is directly mentioned as the intermedi- ary. The Associated Press is not able to obtain a confirmation of the reports. No intimation of such move has reached the American embassy but at the foreign office this afternoon, an of ficial inquired perhaps significantly when President Roosevelt would re- turn to Washington. As previously stated in these dispatches, a consid- erabIe party in the government strong ly holds to the opinion that now that Rojestvensky is ready to strike, before the issue is put to the test would be the most opportune time for opening negotiations.

ITS OUT OF THE WAY.
Paris Announces that the Neutrality
 Incident is Closed.


 Paris. April 24.-The foreign office and other government departments and the bourse closed today in connection with the Easter holidays which, with the Easter adjournment of both branches of parliament and the depart ure of President Loubet and most of the ministers except Delcasse to at tend the unveiling of Gambetta's statue at Bordeaux, has resulted in a period of calm after the excitement attending the DeIcasse incident and the Japan ese protest. The foreign office was open briefly at noon when he said no confirmation had been received of the reported cannonade outside Kamranh Bay during the night of April 22-the day Rojestvensky left the coast of An nam.
 Officials here discredit the report that the crew of the interned Russian cruiser Diana now at Hai FOng joined Rojestvens&y previous to his sailing as official advices show that a daily roll call is made for the purpose of pre- senting the departure of any members of the crew. The neutrality incident is officially closed.
 A telegram from Toulon says it is rumored there that orders have been received to dispatch the French ar mOured cruisers Kleber and DesaiX to the far east and to hold the third class cruisers Cassard and Algerin in readi- ness to put to sea.

It Sailed Away from IndO-ChineSe Waters Confident of Victory Over the Japanese Who Are Wondering Where it Will Turn Up Next.

Washington, April 24.-The cruiser from Labuan. BorneO, for the Cuyos Islands in the Philippines has arrived at Cavite according to a cable to the navy department. It is assumed here that the Raleigh's captain had reason to believe that some ships of the hos tile fleets might enter Philippine waters in the vicinity of the Cuyos Islands and was sent there for a cruise for the purpose of observation. The navy de- partment is advised that the gunbOat Villa I.obos sailed from Shanghai for a cruise. While it is not stated in what direction the vessel had gone it is believed that her mission is to observe the movements of the hostile fleets in the event they might turn toward Phil ipDine waters.

A Great Day.

At least thirty-thousand people oi
Butler county got up early, last Thurs
day morning, dressed up, and hitched
up or went to the railroad stations, and
came to Butler. The B. & o. and Bes-
sic trains had to return to Gallery and
Chicora and Keister, that morning, to
pick up those left behind, and the
crowds that came up town from the sta
tions were the largest we have ever
seen.
Everything eatable in all the hotels
and restaurants of the town disappear
ed, and the restaurants on the grounds
did large business.
The crowd on the grounds was a re-
cord breaker. 1t was estimated al from
thirty to forty thousand Thirty thou
sand tickets of admission to the grounds
and grand stand were sold that day and
the total number of admissions for the
four days was about sixty-thousand.
The managers of the Fair do not care TO
give the exact figures.
Tire crowd, Thursday, was so great
that cne could see nobody or nothing,
and the affair resembled that OF the
King of Spain who with forty -thous-
and men marched up a hill and then
marched down again.
The street cars and hacks hauled the
crowd without accident, excepting the
triaing affair on the steep place near
the Centre avenue bridge; and there
were no accidents to human beings on
the grounds, excepting the humping of
the Italians who ran across the track IN
front of the horses.
