EVERYTHING
IS LOVELY
Statement by President After
the Visit From Aoki
and Yarnatote.
BY Associated Press.

New York, July IA peace con
ference of hardly less Importance to
the United States and Japan than
that now in session at The Hague,
was held at Oyster Bay today when
Admiral Yamamoto of Japan and Wis
count Aoki, the Japanese ambassa-
dor, arrived there for an official visit
of respect to the president. Both of
the distinguished Japanese having
taken advantage of all opportunities
to make public declarations of the
peaceful and friendly intentions Of
their native country, it was expected
that the tone of their conference with
the president would partake of the
same pacific character.
An official statement was issued by
President Roosevelt through Secre-
tary Loeb today, after the departure
of Admiral Yamamoto and Ambassa-
dor Aoki from Sycamore Hill. The
statement was: The president had
long interview with Admiral Baron
Yamamoto, and it was most satisfac-
tory in every way. II simply confirms
what had already been made clear by
Ambassador Aoki, the thoroughly
good understanding between the two
governments and the fundamental
friendliness between the two nations. .

Vremya INDUCES in a
Strong TRADE.
ACCUSES FRENCH AMBASSADOR
OF IMPERTINENT INTERFERE
ENcE IN RUSSIAN AFFAIRS AND
WITH DOUBLE DEALING BY
COURTING FAVOR WITH THE
REFORM ELEMENT.
BY Associated Press.


st. Petersburg, July IAN open
attack on the French government and
Ambassador Bompard appeared today
in the Novoe-Vremya, which week
ago began reviewing and tentatively
condemning the Franco-Russian alli-
ance. 1t is supposed that the paper
in this instance is serving as the
mouthpiece of the powerful court
party which is working in favor OF
closer relations with Germany. The
editorial is couched in Incorporate
and offensive language and seriously
compromises the position of M. Bonn
pard at st. Petersburg. 1t says:
Tactless to the point of impudence
has been the behavior of the ambassa-
dor in urging unasked advice on Rus
sian internal affairs, on which he is a
perfect ignoramus. The French gov
eminent also treated official Russia
strangely, almost hoStilely. The
French Official press and the official
utterances in the chamber Of deputies
have indicated all along that France
was anxious to engage in negotiations
with the new born douma over the
head or behind the back of the gov
eminent Such inSincerity and dOuoie
dealing is calculated to give open en-
couragement to the Russian reyolu-
tionists. who claim that France is
more attentive to their voice than to
the voice of the recognized and re-
sponsible representatives of the Rus
sian empire.
simultaneously, the Nevoe Vremya
bitterly complains OF the confusion
and incapacity of Russian diplomacy,
pointing to the failure of Foreign
Minister Izolsky to bring about re-
establishment of Russian prestige.

The Louisville & Nashville depot al
Chipley, the largest and most expen
siye on the P. and A division, was
destroyed by fire Thursday morning
The flames were discovered in the

mated in the warehouse. His office is
at one end of the building, ard the
flames had gained much neadWay
when he heard the roaring of the fire.
He went to the large sliding doors
and opened them to discover the
so the flames leaped through the door.
He was painfully burned about The
face.
Building Cost About $4,000.
The building, which was Il frame
ctructure, cost about $4,000, and it is
probable that the loss of freight vii!
amount to an equal sum, though

CT the loss have not yet completed
their work.

burned in this section within the past
two weeks, the one at Florala being
