cannot conceive how under the circum-
stances either the pride OF Russia or
the ambitions OF Japan could be per-
mitted to become stumbling block in
the way Of peace which both nations SO
ardently desire and which all the worlu
so strongly demands
II II were not for the phenomenal rec
ord of President Roosevelt in accom-
plishing seemingly impossible tasks the
ENJOYS. their assistants and their init
mate friends would be plunged into the
depths of despair. They, OF course, may
be playing a game, each envoy seeking
to deceive the other, but in their words,
manners and gestures they clearly in
dicate they see but one way out of the
difficulty--that which has been indicated
to Toxic and ST. Petersburg through
Baron Kancko of Japan, and Baron
Rosen. OF Russia, by the President of
the United States.
1t must be admitted, after unceasing
efforts TO fathom the sentiments of the
commissioners OF both nations. that Ba-
ron Komura and Nj Takahira are. il
anything. a trine more optimistic than
are NJ Witic and Baron Rosen This is
probably due to the fact that President

Japan the gamer and Russia the net
loser in the settlement Of the more Wig
orously disputed points.

INEsTIdATING RAILROADS.
The Interstate Commission is q. ting
Busy.

Washington, D. c. (SpeciaD The
interstate Commerce Commission, on its
own initiative and as result OF COM
plants against private car lines, unex-
pectedly began an investigation OF the
relations between railroads and refrig-
orator lines, by which it is charged that
the act to regulate interstate commerce
is being violated in several specific par
ticulars. The complaint set forth by
the commission is directed against the
Armour car line, the American Refrig-
orator Transportation Company the
Santa Fe Refrigerator Dispatch, and the
following railroads; ST. Louis and San
Francisco; Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe; ST. Louis, Iron Mountain and
Southern; Central of Georgia; Southern;
Atlantic Coast Line; Seaboard Air Line
Pennsylvania; Southern Pacific, and
Kansas City Southern.
The railroads and refrigerator lines
are made respondents in proceedings
which require that specific answer TO all
allegations be made to the Interstate
Commerce Commission by September :.
1t Is charged that by way Of rebates
or other devices the refrigerator lines are
acting for the railroads as authorized
agents, and the railroads. acting through
the refrigerator lines. are collecting and
receiving for the refrigeration Of fruit
and vegetables lower rates from some
shippers than they are contemporaneously
receiving for similar service rendered
to other shippers This is held to be
in violation of sections 2 and 3 OF the
act 10 regulate interstate commerce.
Another charge is that failure and neg
ect to publish at shipping stations and
file with the Interstate Commerce Com
mission the rates and charges imposed
for the refrigeration Of fruits and vege-
tables constitute a violation of section
o OF the Interstate Commerce Act. The
commission alleges further that the
charges published jointly by the refrig-
orator lines and the railroads for the re-
frigeration OF fruits in certain specified
territories are unreasonable and unjust
and in violation Of section l. The ter
ritories described are Missouri, Arkan-
sas, Indian Territory, Texas, California
to eastern points, Louisiana and Kan
sas, and Georgia South Carolina and
North Carolina to New York.
The matter has been made the subject
OF investigation by congressional com
mittees and several laws have been passed
giving increased powers to the com
mission IN an tfort to reach alleged
combinations said to be prohibitiye with
shippers leasing by the year large num-
bers Of private cars.

PRESIDENT MAY PREVENT FAILURE.
Would Have Support Of Emperor William and
French Government

Portsmouth, ~ II. (SpeciaD The
peace conference adjourned Friday un-
til Tuesday, ostensibly to give time for
the preparation OF a protocol setting
forth the terms Of the agreement and
disagreement
According to the Russians, the ex-
changes are at an end and there will be
no peace.
But nobody seems to know definitely
what Tuesday has in store. In the four
days that will elapse before the Rus
sian and japanese ENJOYS reassemble
they will communicate with their re-
spective governments, and there will be
plenty Of time TO receive responses.
There can be little doubt that il was
to afford this opportunity for consul
tation with ST. Petersburg and Toxic
that the penipotentiaries agreed to such
a long recess.
From the very first the belief has been
prevalent here that President Roosevelt.
to whose initiative the present exchanges
are due, would not stand idly by if he
were confronted BY the knowledge that
the plenipotentiarics were to adjourn
without having accomplished the mo-
mentous task which brought them to
America. Ii is the Understandings
that prevails, namely. that the confer
ence will be barren Of results If some
thing bring about a contrary condi-
tion is not done in the meantime.

ments.

Washington, d. c. (SpeciaD. - The
forest service OF the Department of Ag-
riculture has taken up the study OF woods
for special uses, and experiments will
be conducted particularly to secure a
wood for street pavement which will
prove lasting.
In recent years engineers have be-
come convinced that with the right Sc
lection and treatment OF material, and
with the right method Of laying, wood
paving can be made successful. Conse-
quently a revival in wood paving has
begun, and many of the largest cities
are again trying it,
Wood pavement is now made almost
exclusively OF one or two OF the best
construction woods, and if it should be-
come popular the drain upon these
woods would be seriously increased. The
forest service will direct its experiments
TO determine if there are not among
the various cheaper and more abundant
species some which by proper treatment
can be substituted for the more valua-
bic kinds now in use.

BRITAIN AND GERMANY CLASH.
Relations Said 10 Be at the Breaking
poat.

Berlin (By Cable). - According to
several high officials of the Govern
ment, Prince Won Buelow, the Imperial
Chancellor, who left Norderney, where
he was spending his vacation, for Ber-
lin, went TO the castle of Wilhelm
shoehe to see Emperor William DR..
Won Muehberg, under secretary Of the
foreign office, who left Berlin for a
vacation OF several weeks, was sudden
ly recalled TO join the Chancellor at
Wilhelmshoehe.
The reason for these movements is so
far only the subject of conf lecture, but
it is known that the relations between
Great Britain and Germany have re-
Gently been on the point of breaking
to an extent beyond the knowledge of
the public.
Precisely what happened lns not been
learned, but serious situation existed
indeed, il is understood, it has not yet
been dissipa,ed. The British Govern
ment appears to hold the conviction that
the German Emperor is seeking to form
a European combination against Great
Britain.

FALL WITH PLATFORM
Accident at Laying Of Synagogue
Cornerstone.
THE VICTIMS SCREAM AND GROAN.
frsIi Structure coIIspses, Carrying Five iiua.
dred People Down IS Feet Into the Cellar
Nearly All Were Bruised aud Cut. but
None Seriously Iniured--Sudden Rush Of
Crowd Causes Accident.

Pittsburg (SpeciaD More than 500
men, women and children were precipi-
tatcd IS feet into a cellar by the col
lapse OF a platform during the exercises
incident TO the laying of the cornerstone
of the Beth-David Russian Hebrew Or
thodox Synagogue on Miller street, near
| Washington Nearly all were cut and
bruised but it is believed none was fa-
tally hurt.
Three rabbis were among those who
went down, and although injured, they
concluded the ceremony after the panic
had subsidized
Among the more seriously injured are
Rabbis A. G Ashinsky, S. Graffman and
A. Bloom, Nathan Nathanson, pastor Of
the congregation, and Policeman Adam
| Lefteweski.
The platform which broke was about
so feet square and had been constructed
over the foundation walls for the ac-
commodation OF the rabbis, officers of
the church and invited guests.
Just prior TO the ceremonies brass
band, leading 500 Zonists, marched up
playing a lively tune, and when the Zion
lists were invited to pass over the plat
form in order to sign their names to the
roll to be placed in the stone mad rush
was made by the thousands OF persons
who had gathered about to secure the
same privilege The police were over
whemed and in a moment the platform
was packed with men, women and chill
dren. The frail structure could not with
stand the strain and fully 500 persons
were carried down.
The panic that followed attracted
thousands OF persons to the spot, and the
police had great difficulty in extricating
the screaming and groaning victims from
the wreckage.
When the cellar had been cleared it
was found that scores were hurt. their
injuries consisting OF bruises and cuts
about the head and body Some of the
injuries were due to the panic that fol-
lowed the crash, many being trampled in
the wild rush to escape
Rabbi Ashinsky was one OF these. He
was trampled by the excited crowd and
sustained severe injuries, but though
suffering intensely continued the serv-
ices after some sort of order had been
restored by the army of policemen who
were called to the scene from several
districts, the report being circulated that
hundreds had been killed in the accident.
The fact that there were no fatalities
is a marvel, as the platform, when it
broke. closed up like jack knife, throw
ing the people in a struggling mass into
the cellar.
Physicians who were called had their
hands full attending TO the injured and
caring for the many women who tainted
after being taken from the cellar.
