designations Of Four Requested by
Commissioner Yerkes.
Washington, Aug. 16.-Only two of
the four special agents of the inter
nal revenue bureau whose resigna-
lions have been called for have so far
complied with the request, these be
ing Captain Charles II. Ingram, in
charge OF the New England division,
and one of the Northwestern agents,
whose name is withheld. Special
Agent c. H. Burg of the Southwestern
division and another Western agent
whose name is withheld have not yet
responded. Commissioner Yerkes de-
clined to discuss the changes further
than to say that the treasury depart
ment knew nothing against the integ-
rity of the men who had been asked
to resign, but it was thought that more
active men would best serve the in
terests of the government. Mr.. Yerkes
added that so far as he knew there
would be no further changes in the
force of special agents.

Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 1.-THE
Hebrew delegation headed by, Jacob
H. schiff Of New York left Hotel
Wentworth during the day, saying
that there would be a subsequent in
terview with NJ. Witte in New York.
They believe that the result of their
talk with M. White and the interview
which is still to come cannot but
prove beneficial to their co-religionists
in Russia. They continue to deny
most emphatically that the question
of a loan to Russia was discussed
with NJ. Witte. Nevertheless, one of
them said to the Associated Press
that he had no doubt if Russia desired
Jewish bankers would be glad to loan
Russia money if the Jews in Russia

other inhabitants of the country. The
representative of another great bank

Russia can otSain in America all
the money she wants to make peace,
but none to make war. Our position
is the position of the Paris bankers"

HILL MAY MEET PERHAM.
Striking Operators Ready to Open
Negotiations.


St. Paul, Aug. 16-It is believed in
railroad circles that President James
J. Hill of the Great Northern, with
other railroad officials, will soon meet
President II. B. Perham of the strik-
ing telegraphers in conference.
President Perham has been prepar-
ing his case for presentation to Mr..
Hill and is engaged in taking copies
of the final correspondence which
! passed between the strikers and the
road. The president OF the teleg-
raphers stated that he knew of no
certain conference, but intimated that
he would not be surprised at any
time to receive word from the roads,
or at least from the Great Northern.
The strikers still insist upon their
position that the case is up to Mr..
Hill through their appeal to him and
that they will make no further move
until Mr.. Hill has been heard from.
1t is believed by those who have been
following the situation carefully that
Mr. Hill either had been heard from
or will be heard from shortly

DINED BY ANARCHIST CLUB.
Effort to Induce Grew of Italian
Cruiser to Desert.


New York, Aug. 16.-Alarmed by
efforts to induce the sailors of the
Italian cruiser Dogali, which has been
anchored off Fort Lee, to desert the
Italian minister of marine has cabled
Captain Capomajja to take his vessel
from New York Immediately.
On Sunday night the noncommis
stoned officers and sailors of the YES
sci were rendered a banquet by the
Italian Socialistic union of Greater
New York. At the dinner slips OF
anarchistic literature were pushed
into the hands of the guests.
The men who circulated the slips
acted mysueriously and endeavored tC
keep their identity secret They told
the guests not to look at the slips fol
an hour. This injunction was no,
needed and the sailors found a mes
sage on each sheet of paper begging
them to desert the ship and take ul
residence in this country. They
pointed to the example set by the
sailors on the Kniaz Potemkine al
Odessa
Word of the plot reached the Off
GERS of the Dogali before the men re
turned. The attempt to get the sail
ors to desert their colors greatly ex
cited the officers and all the banquet
ers were placed under arrest the min
ute they stepped aboard the vessel
There will be a rigid inquiry when the
Dagoli arrives home.

RESULT OF FRAUD ORDER.
United States Bank Decides to Quit
Business.

United States Bank Decides to Quit
Business.
St. Louis, Aug. 16.-Following the
decision of United States Circuit
Judge Vandeventer, denying an appli-
cation for an Injunction to prohibit
the enforcement Of a fraud order by
the postal authorities, the directors OF
the Peoples United States bank, on
the advice of their attorneys, have
voted to go into voluntary liquidation.
The following resolution was adopted:
THAT as the order issued by the
honorable postmaster general July 6,
1905, against this bank prevents the
proper and regular operation of the
bank by the use of the United States
mails, although the bank is solvent
and sound in all respects, it is deemed
by this board for the best interests of
the depositors and stockholders to go
into liquidation and to take at once
| all proper steps for the protection
against unnecessary expense and loss
to its stockholders and depositors."
Notwithstanding the decision of the
directors to go into voluntary liquida-
ton Judge MCKINNEY of the ST.
Louis county circuit court granted an
application for receiver for the
Peoples United States bank on the
| request of Attorney General Hadley
of Missouri. The court then appoint
ed a receiver, but announced that his
name would be temporarily withheld
