HAGUE CONFERENCE
EXPECTED TO MEET
PEACEFUL DEMISE
Russians Refuse Decision
Before Consulting
Government.
DOOR OPEN
Further Farley Expected to
Take Place Between Mos
COW and Allied Capitals.

THE HAGUE. July 1.-THE Hague
conference probably will taper on
to a.iet end tomorrow. following
the promise of the Russians to con-
suit their government as to whether
il Is still willing to recognize the
czarist debt and the restoration of
private property In view of the re-
fusal Of the allies to grant credits.
Although this act on still leaves
the door open for further negotia-
tions. 1t is likely that the confer
ence will pacx up and 20 home.
allowing any further discussion to
take place through direct communi-
cation between Moscow and the al
lied capitals.
Litvinoff, explaining that his orig
inal Instructions were based upon
the supposition that credits would
be forthcoming, said he could make
no further commitment until he
made inquiry Of his government.
Following this statement. the
Russian commission adopted a
resolution noting with satisfac-
tion" the decision of the Russian
delegation to submit the question
to Moscow, but admitting there was
no basis of agreement in LitvinofY' 8
declaration.
This resolution was apparently
inspired by the British and Italian
delegates. who have been tryine
their utmost to prevent a final rum
ture. The British profess to regard
Litvinoff's proposal as a step for
ward. but French and Belgian dele
gates who have grown quite restive
at the delay, are pointing out that
Ltvinon offered nothing new or
tangible.

Rainfall for July
Reaches 6.92 Ins.
Showers Yesterday Fell in
Suburbs Three Hours
Before Downtown.

Slow-movIns -raInclouds brought
showers to the extreme northwest
section of Washington three hours
before they reached downtown last
night and left in their wake 1.5S
inches rainfall, which brought the
total precipitation this month to
6.s2, or 2-3 inches in excess of the
normal rainfall for July.
The forecast for today promises
cloudy weather with possible show
ers and moderate temperature. To-
morrow probably will be fair.
The showers which have sprink-
led washington every day this week
are not considered unusual by the
local Weather Bureau. They are
caused by unusually large evapora-
ton due to the heat, and subsequent
precipitation when the moisture
reached a height at which it is
chilled
In Mobile. Ala. yesterday. there
was a rainfall of 4.64 inches, which
is more than usually falls during a
single month. The greatest precip-
itation here this month was on the
18th, when 1928 inches Of rain fell
into the bureaus measuring instru-
ments.
