Beach Has His Eyes Lifted and May
h Yet Pull Them Down.
Especial to The World.)

Washington, August 27.-It is the
purpose of District Attorney Beach to
have the cases against the alleged cot
ton rtport cOnSpiratOrS set for hearing
at the October term. He goes out of
office on the last day of the month,
but it is probable the government Will
retain him as special counsel because
he is the man best fitted to conduct
the prosecution. Some officials of the
Department of Agriculture are at sea
as to the plan Mr.. Beach has mapped
out. They confess that they do not
understand why Van Ripper was not
indicted and why Beach said, in eff
feet, that Mrs. Peckham knew moth
ing about the conspiracy and had
been much wrOnged by the apparent
attempt to connect her with the case.
The story of Van Ripper was that she
met himself Holmes and Haas in the
Van Ripper apartments at the Waldorf
Astoria, which adjoined her own, and
heard all the plants discussed.
A belief at the department is that
Beach has something WhereWith he
hopes to make a complete answer to
the criticisms passed upon him early
in the case. when he said that, in his
opinion, prosecutions would not lie.
Another belief, entertained by Secre-
tary Wilson as well as officials of lower
rank is that Mrs. Peckham gave
Beach such information as will enable
him, at the proper time, if he is re-
tanned in the case, to catch the men
"higher up" the men who are said to
have gained millions out of the ma
nipulations made possible by the Gu
riOuS cotton reports issued from EDWIN

Brussels, Aug. 2S.-The opening of
the Inter Parliamentary Congress in
the national palace here today was the
occasion for notable demonstration
in behalf of President Roosevelt and
the success of the peace conference at
Portsmouth. The welcoming address
delivered by Minister of State Bernaert
aroused a storm of applause when ne
referred to President Rooosevelts two
conspicuous movements in behalf of
peace in first calling a meeting of The
Hague conference, and, secondly, III
bringing together the plenipotentiaries
of Russia and Japan The congress
adopted amid enthusiasm resolutions
of thanks to President Roosevelt and
the secretary was instructed to cable
a message of appreciation to him.
The congress afterWard discussed
the American proposition for a model
arbitration treaty. Congressman Rich
ard Bartholdt spoke in favor of it.
Mr. Bartholdt also presented the
report in behalf of the United States
King Leopold received the delegates
to the Congress this afternoon. He
conversed with each of the American
members, expressing his admiration
for the United States and saying that
he kept President Roosevelt's pho

At the afternoon session the Con-

those who disapprove of the act to
criticise Sheriff Biddle severely for
not resisting the lyncherS more, but
the officer did all within his poWeer
and an attempt to defend the prison
er would have been useless and doubt
less another murder would have been
committed Jailer Williams was
helpless in the hands of so many men
who could overpower him if it were
necessary.
The failure to put a guard around
the Jail is considered the worst lack
of forethought on the part of the
sheriff and the greatest source of CEN
sure.
1t is intimated that plans of the
lynching had been devised long be-
fore nightfall, and that as far as was
possible the way was prepared for the
speedy execution. 1t is said that
people knew that this lynching would
be attempted as early as five o'clock in
the evening. This, however, is not
clearly proved. 1t was thought by the
authorities that the excitement over
the assault had died away and that
the prisoner was safe.
The body was removed at an early
hour this morning and placed in jail
to await the coroner's inquest, which
was held at noon The verdict was
that Moore came to his death by
gunshot wounds at the hands of per-
sons unknown to the jury.
The reason for this verdict instead
of death by hanging, was that unless
death was caused by strangulation it
is more probable that he was shot to
death as his neck was not broken.
Moore was a very black negro, aged
about twenty, of vicious and sullen
aspect. He was a stranger in this
part of the country and believed to
be a tramp, although he was we'll

said in his trial that he lived in

and at the time of his crime was not
working.

(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, August 2S.-Former
Associated Statistician e. S. Holmes
Jr., of the Department of Agriculture,
indicted together with F. A. Peck
ham and Moses Haas, of New York,
on the charge of conspiring to defraud
the government by prematurely di-
Vulging the departments cotton crop
reports, surrendered to the United
States marshal to-day and later ap-
peared before Justice Stafford and
gave bond in the sum of $40, 900, the
amount agreed upon last Saturday be-
fore his arrival in the city. He was
takeun to the marShals office by his
attorneys, Messrs. Lester and Price,
who also appeared with him in the
court room.
District Attorney Beach made an
effort to secure an increase of the
bond to $4,000, but the effort was
opposed by Mr.. Lester and did not
succeed. In moving for an increase
Mr.. Beach presented an affidavit re-
citing the failure of Holmes to appear
Saturday as per the agreement be-
teewn himself and Attorney Lester,
and charged Mr.. Lester with aiding
Holmes in evading the eecution of a
writ for the latter's arrest Saturday
HlSHl he dtSO S.tlu llldt IctItS IieIN
come to light showing xthat Holmes
had realized $4,000 last December:
that he had recently sold a mine in
the State of Washington for $73, 600
and had large sums of cash in bank
safety vaults. He also said that the
offence charged against Holmes is not
extraditable, and he argued that all
these facts justified a large bond.
In reply Mr.. Lester characterized as
"gratuitouS" the statement that he
had assisted his client in avoiding ar
rest, and related in detail all the
peregrinations of Holmes since he fell
under suspicious. He said that mis-
client had at different times since
then been near the Canadian border
and could easily have escaped to an
other country if he had so desired. He
also repeated that Holmes failure
to present himself on Saturday was
due to delay in getting a letter to
Holmes.
The fact was brought out that
Holmes was in Wildwood, n. j., from
Tuesday to Saturday of last week.

DELAY WAS ASKED
The ENJOYS Will Meet
Again Today.
The Proposition to Defer ihe Meeting
Came From The Japanese. Rus.
SLAMS Had Their Trunks
Packed.
Especial to The World.)

portsmouth, NJ H., August 2l.-
Minister Takahira, one of the Japa-
nese peace plenipotentiaries, knocked
all the Russian plans into Il cooked
hat at $3.50 o'clock tonight by walk
ing across to the Russian quarter in
the hotel and blandly requesting of
Mr.. Witte a nostpOnement of the con-
ference scheduled for o'clock to-
morrow afternoon until Tuesday al
ternoon.
Mr. Takahira was with Mr.. Witte
out Mr.. Takahira said to The World
correspondent:
Tal<ahira's Explanation.
Il went to Mr.. Witte tonight and
proposed that the conference meet on
Tuesday instead of tomorrow. He
consented. This action was taken
because we thought that. as we had
been brought here to discuss terms of
peace through the efforts of the Presi-
dent of the United States, it would
be we'll to go slowly and cautiously
before a final adjournment. Whether
Japan Will have any new proposal to
make when we meet on Tuesday |
am not prepared to say-now."
The Minister paused moment be-
fore adding the word yet
Il can say, however," he went on,
that our reason for asking for a
postponement was entirely apart from
the question of whether there will De
any new proposal
Pressed On this point Mr.. Taxa
hira refused to go any further.
Mr.. Witte said:
What Witte Says.
'Mr. Takahira called on me and
asked for delay for day of the con-
ference set for tomorrow. He told me
that because of the difference in time
of fourteen hours between Portsmouth
and Toxic, the last answer to the Jap
anese ENJOYS from the Emperor had
not been received He asked me, in
case that answer is not received in
time for deciphering and discussing 6
by the Japanese before the hour set
for the conference tomorrow, if |
would consent to a postponement, and
| agreed. The conference will be held
on Tuesday,
''Will Russia have any new propoS-
als?" Mr.. Witte was asked
"None," he replied, shaking his
head emphatically
Ever since the conference adjourned
on Saturday. especially all day to-day,
the Russians have been protesting that
me meeting set for Monday would be
+ha last. Their trunks are packed
They are ready to go.
Expect Modified Demand.
The Russian view of the Japanese
action is that President Roosevelt has
persuaded the japanese to make some
new proposition. They deem it certain
that the Japanese will have new con-
dition to present on Tuesday, and they
say that if it contains an indemnity
feature it will be rejected.
;c,, oa
the japanese will relinquish all claim
to indemnity nor that the Russians
will pay anything in the form of in
demAity.
