oyster Bay. Aug. 5.-History was
made today in oyster Bay. Russians
and Japanese clasped hands and greet
ed one another with all outward evil
4ouce Of cordiality and for the first
time since the nations began to have
relations one with another, an eXecu-
ecutive of a great power received the
a1yovs of the two belligerent coun-
tries on q mission of peace. President
Roosevelt on behalf of the United
states and it's people extended formal
greetings to representatives of Russia
and Japan, introduced the plenipoten-
tfarfes to one another and entertained
them at an elaborate luncheon, at
which the Russians and japanese fra
rernized with one another as comrades
rather than as enemies. During lun-
cheon President Roosevelt proposed a
notable toast in which he expressed
an earnest hope and prayer in the
interest not only of these two great
powers. but of all civilized mankind,
that a just and lasting peace may be
sueedily concluded between them
IMPRESSIVE SIMPLICITY.
The occasion was impressive. 1t
was attended not by pomp and cere-
mony. but by a simplicity and frank
ness characteristic of the president
and the people of America. Due hon
or was paid the distinguished guests
of the president and of the country
and they received all the dignity 10
which their exalted rank entitled them.
The day was ideal After the sun
had burned away the haze of the early
morning. the weather was glorious. y
brisk breeze just tipped the waves OF
Long Island Sound with silver. tenn
pering at the same time the heat of
the suns rays. The formal reception
of the Russian and Japanese pleni-
poteutiaries took place on the hand
some war yacht MayfiOwer. one of
the most beautiful vessels of the Unit
ed States navy.
No attempt was made to decorate
the cabins of the vessel with flags.
care being exercised in every feature
Of the ceremony attendant upon the
reception not in the slightest way to
offend the sensibilities of the guests
of the occasion. In order that no
questions of precedence should arise
it was determined that the luncheon
should be a buffet function. In this
way was avoided the necessity of
seating the ENJOYS at the table with
the president.
Rear Admiral Charles D. Sigsbee,
commander Of the squadron which
brought the remains of the first Amer
lean admiral-John Paul Jones-from
France to its final resting place in
this country, was aboard the Mayfiow-
ct as the guest of Commander Wins

Grant, commander of the department
Of the east, and Rear Admiral Joseph
3. Coghlan, cOmmandant of the Brook
lyn navy yard, respectively, represen-
tatives of the army and navy at the
reception, went aboard the Mayfiower
at 1850 d. m.
THE MEDIATOR ARRIVES.

IT'S NOT HOPELESS.
But a Worse Situation at
New Orleans
Mingled Satisfaction and DisappOint-
ment Over Government Inter.
ventiOn in Behalf OF Crescent City

New Orleans, Aug. New cases. in
New Orleans today: Deaths, 6; total
cases, 4S6; total deaths, 95. The fever
is generally extending it's grasp on New
Orleans but the spread of the disease
checked. The New Orleans situation
is admittedly serious but by no means
hopeless. The turning over of the fight
to the federal government inspires the
local health authorities with renewed
determination.
The announcement that President
Roosevelt had acted with characteris-
tic PRONG tness on the request of Gov
ernor Blanchard to have the marine
hospital service take charge of the fe-
YER situation here has created satisfac-
tion though there was some disappoint-
ment in the confession of the states
inability to handle It. Confidence out
side of Louisiana was so completely
lacking in the local health authorities
however, that a relaxation of the rigid
quarantine measures could not be ex-
pected. The quarantine situation is
somewhat improved. Parishes which
threatened to prevent the passage Of
all trains made some concessions re-
garding through passengers. 1t is be-
lieved that the Southern Pacific and
the Texas Pacific will be able to move
through passengers and some freight
today. There is a complete boycott Of
fruits in Mississippi, edicts having
been issued forbidding the passage of
fruit trains through towns of that
state

der the stern of the Dolphin, the crew
of that vessel dressed the ship and the
trumpeters sounded a. fanfare. AS the
president stepped on the gangway 70
ascend to the deck of the Mayflower
the first gun of the presidential sa-
iue of 21 guns doomed its welcome
and the beautiful presidential pen
nant of blue and gold was broken out
at the masthead. The president was
greeted by Commander Wilson as he
reached the deck. The band, after
the sounding of four ruffies on the
drum, played THE Star Spangled
Banner" The president greeted cor
daily General Grant and Rear Admir-
ais Coghlan and Sigsbee. one after
another. the president personally shook
hands with the officers of the ship.
In the meantime the cruiser Tacoma
with the Japanese ENJOYS and their
suite on board. had arrived from New
York. making the run in two hours
and three quarters. The ship came to
anchor at 1890 o'clock about half a
mile from the Mayfiower. Almost at
the same time the naval yacht Sylph.
with Third Assistant Secretary Of
State Herbert d. Peirce on board, also
came to anchor a short distance from
the Mayflower. Mr.. Peirce who. in
the absence of Secretary Root, was to
represent the department of state at
the ceremonies incident to the recep-
tion, boarded the Mayfiower from a
launch about ten minutes after the
arrival of the president. He and the
president chatted a few minutes before
it was reported to the president that
the japanese envoys were about to
board the Mayfower.
HOMING THE ENNONS
Scarcely had the report been made
before the guns Of the Tacoma began
to fire their salute Of nineteen guns

Went over the side. As the japanese

Minister Takahira. ascended the gang
way all attired in black frock coats
and shiny silk hats. the band sound
ed three Tuffies and then played d
march. At the head of the gangway
Commander Winslow received the eiT-
voys and as they stepped to the deck.
they were greeted by Mr.. Peirce. They
were escorted Immediately to the cab
in, where the president was awaiting
them.
Their reception was brief and was as
devoid of formality as the nature of

for the interest they had manifested
in the pending peace negotiations, cZ-
pressing particularly his gratitude TO
the president for the friendliuess he
'had shown in initiating The negotiations
which had resulted in the pleasure they
were to have today. The president as
sured Baron KOmura that he had found
great pleasure III taking steps toward
what he hoped would be a permanent
peace between the two great nations.
The exchanges. if they may be so term

at 2:55 he was landed at the Roosevelt
pier. There he entered his carriage
and was driven to his home.
The Japanese ENJOYS and their suites
were next to leave. They shook hands
with the Russian pIenipOtentiaries ex-
pressing to them their personal graft
fication at the pleasant meeting they
had had.
AS they went over the side the May
flower saluted them with nineteen guns
AS they went aboard the Dolphin. the
red sun of the flag of Japan was brok-

at the same moment the Russian flag
was raised over the Mayflower.

ADVERTISING THE COUNTRY
People Looking for Information and
Those Supplying 1t.

There are a great many influences
at work for bringing into general pub
licity the wonderful resources of Ari-
zona, a subject that cannot be over
worked and that has been too much
neglected. Among the most influential
agencies for directing prospective set
tiers to new countries. are the rail-
roads and the local railroad represen-
tatives. The following correspondence
is reproduced as a sample of what is
going on constantly and from its pc
rusal may be drawn the lessons first
that there are thousands of people
looking for information and second
that the local Santa Fe officials are
doing everything in their power TO
help along the good work:
