LoUBET ON PEACE.
Significant Utterances by French
President at Reception.

President Loubets New Year reception to
the members of the diplomatic corps at
Paris yesterday gave opportunity for a sig
nificant exchange of peace sentiments evil
IDENTIFY designed to offset the recent wave of
pessimistic war talk The usual military
honors were rendered on the arrival of the
ambassadors.
Count Tornielli, as dean of the corps, in
extending to President Loubet the felicia
tons of his colleagues and himself, said
that he was not giving expression to mere
formal sentiments of fraternity. At the be-
ginning of the year just closed he said the
whole world suffered from a feeling of the
deepest depression lightened only by the
general conviction that moral action favor
Ing the solidarity of the essential interests
and the pacific relations of the peoples rem
resented by the diplomat tic corps was as
sured by the support of France The hone
then expressed had been fulfilled, for which
reason they congratulated themselves on
having been witnesses of the benedcent
action of France IN behalf of peace
President Loubet, in replying said:
1T is with the deepest satisfa elton I re-
| call that the hopes for peace, the object of
| all our desires, which were expressed year
ago, have been fulfilled. The moral mower
attained by pacific ideas throughout the
world has played a great part In this happv
result. The persuasive authority of those
ideas was never before thus demonstrated
and we may draw therefrom the most IA
yorable auguries.''

SEARCH FOR DYNAMITERs
Idaho Officials Determined to Punish
Steunenber Murderers

GOV. Steunenberg paid the penalty of
making law and order in Idaho" declared
GOV. Gooding at Boise, Idaho, yesterday.
AFTER having been at Caldwell all day en-
deavoring in every possible way to discover
the person or persons responsible for Satur-
day nights outrage. in which the former
governor was blown to death by a dynamite
bomb. That Is the opinion of practically
every citizen Of the state-that his death
came in this tragic form because he dared
to do his duty and uphold the law of his
state against the dynamit of the Coeur
Alene mining regions in 1898 during his
term as governor.
The authorities are making every posi-
BILE effort to catch the criminal Every
roau, every Df1dge, every railway station
ana every stage line is guarded to prevent
escape of the murderer or murderers A
GORDON of officers was thrown around CsId
wei, the town where the outrage occurred
Immediately after the commission of the
crime ana this Is maintained. 1t is be-
lieyed that the guilty men are still in CaId-
well.
Five men are under arrest there and II is
thought that the man who set off the bomb
Is included in these. Three of the SUSPECTS
nave been unable to give good account OF
themselves.
A dispatch from Denver SAYS: AN in

PRESIDENT Charles H. Meyer of that organ

IRON MEMS STRIKE WELCOMED.
Said It Will Clear Atmosphere Of
Labor Troubles.

Employers in the building industry OF
New York are little concerned over the
strike of the structural ironworkers' union
that will take place today. 1t was stated
by several leading employers in the iron
trade Yesterday that they welcomed the
strike at this particular juncture because
IL would cause very slight interruption TO
business and would tend to clear the atmos-
phere of all labor difficulties before the
opening of the building season next spring.
Because Of the remarkably open winter
nearly all of the structural iron work In
the city. with the exception of Post & Nc
Cords contracts. has been completed, and
out of the COCO men in the Housesmiths
and Bridgemen's Union there were fewer
than eight hundred the pay rolls last
Saturday Many of these under normal
conditions would be laid off because of the
completion of work this week.
From now until June 1, when new
erection work begins, most of the work
will be on the interior of the big strue-
lures and in alterations of old buildings.
Hence a strike of the ironworkers just now
will amount to little.
Those in charge of the fight for the en-
ployers said yesterday they welcomed the
strike because 1t will give them from now
until next June to get a new force OF IRON
workers broken In. On the books of the
new employment agency they now have the

proportions. By the term -rations-

that she Is not adapted by nature to be

milk per day For heavy mixers thess
rations are to be increased. and re-
duced for lighter mixers. In making
up these ratious il Is designed that the
