Rogestvensky Rescued;
Would Have Met Death

TOKYO, June 3.-The destroyer Saza-
nami, which captured the Russian de-
stroyer. Bedovi, with Rogeetvensky
aboard. tells an interesting story of the
capture.
An armed guard was sent on board
the Bedoyi to receive her surrender. The
Russian requested the Japanese not to
remove Admiral RogestVensky and the
other officers on account of their
wounds.
The japanese complied. with the un-
derstanding that the Japanese guard
would execute Rogestyenslky In the
event OF the delay leading TO a meeting
with Russian ships, thus running the
danger OF his re-capture.

Railroad Corner kserted
By Insurance Troubles

In connection with the new develop
znents IN affairs Of the Equitable Life
Assurance Society, an interesting ae-
count Is given, on the authority OF
Western railroad men, of the effect
which the Equitable troubles have had
On some of the great speculative inter
ests. II is said. In short, that q corner
IN Union Pacific was ayerted a few
weeks ago because OF fear OF it's ef-
1ects on public opinion and the pub3ic's
attitude toward the great insurance
companies.
The story is that while the courts
Were grinding out the last opinions In
the Northern Securities litigation, the
Hiil-Morgan interests IN Northern Sc
curities were gathering in Union Pa
cific stock. until they approached con-
troll. They aimed 10 protect, by thfs
means, their interest IL Northern Pa
cifie. control OF which the Hartman
understood to covet. The result was
that the Hill Morgan people came so
near control that there was a serious
pr9monitoTy furry. several weeks ago
and everything for a time Indicated that
corner in the stock might be forced
with as disastrous results as those
which attended the famous blue
Thursday corner in Northern Pacific
four years ago.
Concluded Peace Was Better.
This Is where the insurance concerns
were involved. The great insurance
companies and their allied trust and
banking interests must furnish the cap
tatns Of speculation money for conduct
ing such warfare OF millions. Without
backing from these quarters such a
struggle OF the financial Titans was
practically impossible. Under ordinary
circumstances the money would have
been forthcoming, 1t is alleged. the Har-
rinlan group being in domination of one
great set Of interests, ceEtering in a
big insurance company, and the Hill
Morgan people having similar backing
4Tom another company, But the Presi-
dents suggestion Of Federal supervision
OF insurance, followed by the struggle
IN the Equitable and the revelations
concerning its affairs, combined. IL Is
reported. TO convince the warring inter
esss that peace and com promise would
ba better for all concerned than war and
possible prejudice against the use Of In
SQfance backing in such fights
The result, according to this account
Has that when the public was fully pre-
pared to see a huge struggle for Union
Pacific and Northern Pacific control. the
two sides adjusted their differences and
reached terms which. for the time al
least. ayerted such clash.

Parents Nurse czarevitch.

ITO those in the least acquainted with
what is going On in the Imperial Palace
ii is well known that the fuHeuons OF
nurse TO the baby heir are carried out
by his august parents and nothing is
entrusted 10 the nurses or outsiders.
It is common knowledge tina. when. on
Red Sunday a messenger went 70 In
form the Car of what was taking place
he found him in his sons nursery bath
ing the child with his own hands.
las In every story continued the
reyoiutionlst. however inaccurate.
there Is some truth. The alleged story
of the attempt 10 assassinate the Czare-
witch was based on another story which
also now forms the topic of converse
ton IN high circles.
Gar Was CuIprit.
"rnis story goes: That the czar one
day. while fulfilling his duties of bath
ing his child. was mentally much per-
turbed by thought Of whether Rogest-
vensky would beat Togo or Togo
Rogestvensky; and while the basin was
full of hot water, he forgot TO open the
cold water faucet. and was going TO
plunge his own son with his OWN hands
into the boiling water, when the Czarina
suddenly appeared on the scene and
snatched the child from the hold Of his
weuld-bc-though inyoiuntary-assagsir in.
Since that day the Office of bathing
The imperial child was transferred 70

There have been several conferences
between n. Delcasse and the japanese
minister It is understood another is TO

FinancieTs Worried.
French fnanciers seem to be more
hopeful of peace than at any time since
the war began. They are deeply inter
ested, as French investments In Rus
sian securities are more than a billion
and a half of dollars
The representative of a great banking
institution said today:
I'VE have information that leads us
t, believe that the pressure which has
been brought on the Russian govern
ment is bearing fruit. and that the situ-
alton today is decidedly more hopeful
for peace than it has ever been.
Japan has Shown unexpected modar-
alton in her demands. Under the cir
cumstances the terms we understand
she is willing TO accept are fully as
favorable to Russia as the Cars gov
ernment has any right to expect.
