PRESIDENTS CONFIDENCE.
That the Warning Powers Will oe
 Brought Into Friendly Contact.

Washington, June 9.-When Presi- dent Roosevelt left Washington today on a two days trip to Virginia, he was confident that the result of the inter national negotiations for peace in the far east had been successful and the final blow in the Russo-Japanese war had been struck. So deeply interested is he in bringing the two belligerents to common understanding that he would not have left the White House at a time when the situation was so deli cate, until he had obtained assurances that his efforts to bring Russia and Ja- pan into contact in an amicable spirit, had been successfully concluded.
 While extreme reticence is manifest ed in every official and diplomatic quarter, it is known authoritetively that the exchanges which have been in progress for the last ten days ne- tween the Washington government and the powers, including the two bel Iigerents have been successful to an unexpected degree. President Roose- welt who has taken the lead in the negotiations, has been accorded the cordial support of the great continental powers. including Russia's nearest friend, France.
 The direct representations made through Ambassador Meyer at St. Petersburg were received by the czar in the most friendly spirit. Tokio re- sponded in an equally amicable way So near are the two warning powers to an amicable contact at this moment

that in all Washington circles, official and diplomatic, mere hopefulness has given way to notable optimism.
 It is not unlikely that within for ty-eight hours, a definite statement of the situation may be issued from St. Petersburg, Tokio or Washington which will throw a clear light on it. It can be said that only Tokio re- mains yet to be heard from regarding that phase of the negotiations. That the response of the mikado's govern ment will be favorable no doubt is entertained.

ABANDONED WELL
In nartin's Grove Near Lafayette
Found to Be Nearly Full
of Oil.

Last week Mr.. A. M. Martin
in company with several friends
examined the oil well on his
place near town. which was put
down about two years ago and
abandoned. The cap was re-
moved and a bottle let down. On
raising it, it was found to con-
tain a pure heavy oil. Further
examination showed that the
well was practically full of oil,
which confirms Mr.. Martins
faith in the existence of oil on
his property in paying quantities.

Last Bulletin of Institute.
The Chicago Public.
The last quarterly Bulletin of
the Southwestern Louisiana In
stitute, at Lafayette, La, a fine
specimen of artistic simplicity
in topographic and pictorial
work, describes the Institute in
a very attractive manner. This
institute, of which E. L.
Stephens is president, is not a
mere labor school, designed to
turn out servants; it is one of
those manual training schools
which turn out well-rounded
men and women by cultivating
mind and hand together. One
interesting item of the Bulletin
might fairly have been put
under the title Beware of
Statistics" It refers to the
educational statistics of the
United States Census Bureau.
For the past several decades"
says the Bulletin of these
statistics, they have not been
complimentary to southwest
Louisiana. Throughout the 10
or more parishes constituting
this section the percentage Of
illiteracy among native white
men over the age of 81 has been
put down at nearly A per cent.
These figures are simply in
credible, and it is probable that
the census takers have in many
cases confounded inability to
read and write English"

AN AUSTRIAN STRIKE.
It is Pursued Along Passive Resist

Vienna, Nov. 12.-The employees of the Northern railroad of Austria to- night joined in the passive resist ance" strike.
 ReiteratiOns of Baron Won Franken- thurn, the Austrian premier, to the eff feet that the government proposal to introduce a suffrage project at the next sitting of parliament this month have been received with satisfaction and will doubtless go far toward in surfing quiet and minimizing the eff feet of the demonstrations.
 Negotiations are proceeding between the ministry of railroads and repre- sentatives of the strikers with a view to a settlement, and there is consid- erable hope that they will be success ful. The government stands firm against disorders. but probably will meet the men half way. The strikers are pursuing their passive resist ance" tactics with only partial suc- cess.

statement concludes with an exhaus- tive review Of what it describes as 'thc asphalt company's actual rela- tons to tEe revolution"
 In this connection it is explained that $10O,000 was given to General Mates by officials of the National As phalt company on the generals re- quest Further sums aggregating $3O,- coo were paid the revolutionary leader soon afterward. This money was paid. the statement says, to guarantee pro- lection of the company's property at time when the territory in which the company's property is located was in the control of the revolutionists. The statement maintains that the company at all times observed absolute neutral ity, even going to the extent of paying customs duties to both the government and revolutionists when the custom houses were controlled by the insur- gents.
