FRISCO HAS NO MAYOR.
Eugene E. schmitE Ordered to Prison
 For Grating.

rOE uFnIthn8s
 SAN FRANCISCO, June 15. - San Francisco practically has no mayor, as, according to a statement by Acting District Attorney Heney, Mayor Flu gene E. SchmItz, having been convict. ed of graft charges, is mayor in name only.
 Though unable to perform the duties of his office. under the law oA Califor- mia Schmitz, it is said, still retains the office.
 A state law provides that a convict ed person cannot be busted from office until such conviction has been upheld by a higher court. As cases move slow ly on appeal. 1t is considered likely that the higher court will not pass upon this matter until after the mayors term of office has expired.
 Under the charter, however. Schmitz. should be be sent to prison, would be unable to perform the duties of his of- fee.
 Judge Dunne has refused ball to Mayor Schmitz. convicted of extorting money from French restaurants. and ordered him jailed.
 Sentence will be pronounced Thurs day, June 2T.
 The maximum penalty for the crime of extortiOn Is five years imprisonment In the state prison.

JOYS OF A COLLECTOR.
Occasionally He Is Able to Snap Up
 a Prize.

Collecting will always have It's TO- mances. I know of one that occurred as recently as the sale at Christie's of the effects of the late Sir Henry Irving. Some one I know had been to see the collection before the sale. He came across portrait with which he was familiar, because he had seen 1t 30 years before. On consulting his catalog he discovered that the DOT trait was described as being that of Q man unknown. and, further, the artist was also unknown. Now he knew that the portrait was that of famous actor by famous English painter. He longed to buy 1t. but decided that 1t would go at too high a price. He went to the auction with very little hope. The Whistler and the Sargent were sold, and then 1t was the turn of this picture. Nobody recognized 1t. Finally he had to start the bidding himself, and this he did. Only one man bid against him, but he soon stopped. discouraged. and then the picture was knocked down to the man who had never expected to get it. He hurried to the desk to pay the small amount and to carry on his prize. Do you happen to know anything about that portrait?" the auctioneer asked him. as a porter took 1t down to q cab. T know 1t very we'll" said the new owner, conscious that 1t was now safely his property. Tt is a portrait of Blackstone, the actor. by Daniel Maclise. There is an engraving of it in the Maclise Portrait Gallery.- Mrs. John Lane, in Pearson's Maga- zine.

MINNEsoTA's LAUNCH FOUND.
Boat, Containing Many Bodies, Lo
 cnted at Hampton Roads.

Boat, Containing Many Bodies, Lo- cnted at Hampton Roads. NEWPORT NEWS. Va, June 15.- With canopy frame crushed, but can vas still tightly fastened down, the missing launch of the battleship Min nesota was located in twenty-seven feet of water of the Ripraps last night by dredgers.
 Across the little craft was teltale piece of towing line. serving to con- vince the naval officers that they are right in their theory that the launch was run down by float of some kind in tow of tug
 The diver who went down to exam inc the launch reported that the heads and arms of three men were protruding from beneath the canvas covering, the men evidently having made dssper- ate fight for life when they were car ried down like rats In a trap.
 It will be many hours before the launch can be raised, and at the pres ent time no one knows how many bodies will be found. It Is believed that certainly nine of the bodies will be under the canopy, but the fact that uniform capes of Midshipmen Ulrich and Stevenson were picked up in the roads indicates that these two must have succeeded in getting free from the boat before they were drowned.
 Aboard the battleship Indiana Cap tain Mahan said that all the facts had been sent to Washington and that m official report would be given out to- day. Searchlights from all the Ameri- can battleships played upon the spot, around which two floating derricks, the naval tug Potomac and half a dozen launches and cutters are anchor ed. A diver Is at the bottom of the roads placing the cables with which the derricks will raise the launch. 0fi- cers and men aboard the Atlantic fleet are waiting anxiously for the raising of the boat.

FOR WORLDS PEACE
International Congress Opens
 at The Hague.
LATIN AMERICA TO SUPPORT US.
At Cxar's Call For First Conference Delegates Accepted Summons as Holy Mission-Today 1t Is
 Earth's Parliament.

Earth's Parliament.
 THE HAGUE. June Representa- lives of fprty-six countries attended here today the opening of the second peace conference with simple but im- pressive ceremonies. There Is re- markable contrast between the sentt- ments prevailing at the opening of the original conference of 1899 and today, which has become subject of general comment
 In 1899, although less than half of the present number of governments was represented. the hopes of the world were high and there was a vision of disarmament and the punishment of the course of war from among civ ilized peoples.
 Men who were here eight years ago recall how the delegates of the powers met In response to the generous appeal of the emperor of Russia and entered upon their work with the zeal and en- thusiasm of men upon a holy mission. Yet three months later this dream faded, and nothing beyond the adop- tion of a pious VOW remained of the avowed object of the conference.
 Today the conference is world par liament in the fullest acceptation of the term, and the delegates meet in a more practical and more sober spirit. Two wars have been fought since 1899. and the military budgets of the powers are heavier, but disarmament has not been even preached, and the prospects of making a step in the direction of the limitation of armaments are very slim.
 It is idle to deny that the antagonism of Great Britain and Germany over shadows the conference. The Germans come to The Hague extremely suspl- cious that the group of powers, of which Great Britain is the backbone, intend to try to maneuver her into a position where the failure to do any thing in the direction of the limitation of ornaments will be laid to her door. Although some aid from Italy may be expected and Russia is not unfriendly, Germany is only sure of Austria, and she fears trap. For instance, she Is afraid of compulsory arbitration. lest 1t compel her to submit interests which she deems vital to an unfriendly tri- bunal N In the event of clash the immense strength of the United States position, free as 1t is of European suspicion and backed by Latin America, is univer- sally recognized.
