DEWEY ON JAP WAR
MANILA BAY HERO GETSTALK.
ALIVE ON SUBJECT.
The Great Admiral Tells How Iona
1t Would Take Uncle sam to Put the
Japanese Navy to the Bad-He Does
Not Look for Any Trouble, but
Would Not Fear Japan.

Washington, Feb. 5.-Admiral Dew
ey is reported to be very indignant at
what he terms the id cowardice, ~
a certain high official who had .actad
as if he feared Japan" The fghtinp
hero Of Manila bay says that we could
get our navy into eastern waters IN
six weeks and that within two weeks
after it's arrival there it could sween
Japan's navy from the sea. He does
not believe there will be trouble. hut
if there is, he would not consider jap
an foe to fear He says that Japan
might seize the Philippines and nos
sibly Hawaii, but that our navy is am
ply able to cope with Japan and that
we would quickly retake the island
when we got ready.
On the supposition that there was
really some danger of war, Senator
Perkins recent lecture on the japan
csc question is being severely criti-
cized for the alleged warlike talk in
it. The Washington Herald said this
morning;
AT the very moment when the adj
ministration and the California dele
cation were in agreement, when self.
restraint and preservation Of good hui
NOR were necessary to insure a con-
tinuance of harmonious relations Sen
ator Perkins, leader of the delegation.
delivered a semtpubIic address in
which he predicted that war was inc
vitable between Japan and the United
States. Friends of Senator Perkins
are chagrined and Inundated over this
unexpected outburst, and cannot I'm.
derstand the motive that actuated it.
1t was said yesterday that his predic-
ton would have come with bad grace
at this time from any member of the
California delegation, but the fact that
Senator Perkins is part of the treaty
making power of the government ac-
centuates the offense."
War Talk Surprises Japan.
Tokio.-The war talk Of the Ameri-
can press has been received here with
great surprise and sincere regret. The
of the Associated Press
has talked with several leading men.
Ihey concur in the opinion that the
United States is the last country with
which Japan would go to war. Besides.
both nations are unaggressive in their
trade rivalry, which seldom leads to
war unless territorial acquisition is in
tended by either rival. In some quar-
ters the belief is expressed that the
Misrepresentation that Japan is suf-

munity shown disaffected war cores

Jesse searles Shoots Wife and Broth
 CT, Then Himself.
 PENNINGTON, Me, July 15.-Jesse Searles, a farmer, aged about twenty five years, shot and killed his wife and his brother, Edward Searles, in North Chesteryille and afterward shot him self, probably fatally. Jealousy is sup posed to have been the cause of the act.
 Searles committed the double murder as his wife and brother were taking a Sunday stroll in the woods about a mile from the village. Returning to his house, he informed some friends of what he had done and then shot him. self.
 He was still alive at late hour, but his condition was critical. Both the victims of his craftsmanship were dead when people from the village reached the scene of the shooting. Each was shot through the head, and probably both died instantly.
 For about six months Jesse Searles and his wife had been living apart. They came to North Chesterville from Rangeley about two years ago Both the men served as guides for sportsmen in the Rangeley region.

THE HAGUE CONFERENCE.
American Peace Propositions Likely
 to Pass International Tribunal.

THE HAGUE, July 15. - Notwith- standing the pesslmistlc views held in some quarters concerning the peace conference and its work the members of the American delegation feel conf dent that some good result will be reached from the exchanges of opinion among the plenipotentIaries of the countries represented.
 It now appears that all of the Amerl- can propositions will be satisfactorily received. The question of the immu- nifty of private property at sea, al. though bitterly opposed. will have a considerable majority in the vote next week, and this will be a further step toward the adoption of this principle in another conference. The rules re- eariing the bombardment of unforti- fled towns. villages. etc. originally preseAted by America. will be substan- tially adopted with the approval of the proposal drawn up by the Italian dele gation bringing into harmony the dif- ferent views on this subject The American suggestion regarding the col lection of pecrniary contractural debts without the use of force will be sup ported by all of the great powers. and the proposals concerning the establish. ment of a permanent court of arbitra ton and the prohibition of the use of unnecessary cruel bullets have been favorably received.
 Finally Tn plenary sitting the Unit ed States will present plan for the permanency of the conference Itself as an institution. the holding of periodic meetings and the organization of s prnzraume.

 NEW YORK. July 15.-Mr. Harri- man on being shown a copy of the re- port said:
 From what am told the report Is e political document and part of a per sonal pursuit of me. The tone of the report and the method of its promulga- ton show that. Imagine court or any judicial body sending copies of its decisions around secretly to newspaper publishers days in advance under pledge to publish 1t simultaneously Sunday morning. That Is what the commission did. It Is deemed good politics to attack me. But I can stand 1t much better than the people of this country can stand that sort of pro- cedure on the part of government tri- bunals charged with the duty of i'm. partially administering the laws.

GALL THE COMFORTS OF HOME. :

ALL THE COMFORTS OF HOME. This weeks attraction at the Jacques will be William Gillette's well known comedy "All the Com forts of Home" The play is one which for many seasons made thea ter-goers laugh and it's revival will be welcomed by theater-goers. It is written in MryGillette's best vein and never borders on broad farce. The comedy all through is refined and IS highly entertaining. The play IS about young man, Alfred Hastings, (Richard Gordon) a young English man who is left in charge of resi- dence while his uncle is travelling. The young man changes the residence into lodging house and most in teresting array of people come there to live. Many amusing complications arise, especially when the uncle and his family come home to find the house full of strangers. The piece has been prettily staged and an ex- cellent performance may be expected. Souvenirs will be distributed on Tuesday and Friday afternoons. Popular prices.

SHOT AT PRESIDENT
Fallieres Has Narrow Escape
 From Death at Paris.
FRENCH NATIONAL FETE MARRIED.
Leon MaiIIe, Naval Reservist of Hayre, Whose Mindi is Unhinged, Fired Two Bullets Point
 Blank at Ruler.

PARIS, July 15.--An attempt was made to assassinate President Fal- Heres here by Leon Maille, naval re- servist of Havre. The president escap- ed unhurt.
 President Fallieres was being ac- claimed by the thousands who throng- ed the streets when Maille from the curb fired two shots point blank at him. Miraculously no one was hit, and the presidents carriage was hur- ried along. Maille was arrested, and the police had difficulty in preventing the crowd from lynching him.
 The national fete was marred by this dastardly attempt on the life of President Fallieres by Maille. It is believed he is suffering from the ma mia of persecution. Maille fired two shots at the president, but did not hit him. He was at once placed under ar rest.
 On account of the activity of the anti- militarsts, who tried to organize demonstration against the army throughout France, exceptional precau- tions were taken to safeguard Presi- dent Fallieres. The attempt on his life occurred on Avenue des Champs Ely sees while the president was returning to the palace from Long Champs, where he had reviewed the garrison of Paris in the presence of 250,O00 enthu- siastlc people.
 Premier Clemenceau and NJ. Lanes, the presidents secretary, were with the president in his laudau, which was escorted by squadron of cuiras- siers. The carriage had safely emerg- ed from the Bois de Cologne, where the antimilitarists had stationed them selves with the intention of hooting the soldiers, and was descending the broad Champs Elysees amid the acclamations of the crowds thronging the sidewalks, who were shouting "Vive Fallieres'' and "yive parmee!" when at the cor ner of Lesueur street Maille from the curb fired point blank at the presi- | dent.
 President Fallieres was cool and col lected when the cortege stopped. The diplomats who were following the presidents laudau alighted from their carriages and hurried to the side of NJ. Fallieres. Finding that nobody had been injured, by the presidents orders the cortege moved on.
 In the meantime the policemen seized Maille. who made no resistance but the police with difficulty prevented the irate crowds from lynching the pris- oner until a cordon of reserves came up and conducted him to the station. There Maille refused to give any reasons for his act, saying: "The reve- | lations I have are so grave and seri- ous that will only make them before | a magistrate for transmission to the chief of state. It is a matter between the government and me. I am the
 victim of many villss iies." | Some of the witnesses of the shoot | ing said that Maille fired in the air. l It is believed that the man partici- and that His mind had been unhinged 1 by fancied grievances. It is believed ! also that he aided in the revolution i ary agitation, of the General Fedora tion of Labor and the antimilitarists. l There is no reason to suspect a plot, as Maille only arrived here from Rou- en yesterday.
