ENVOYS MY M
PRESIDENT ANNOUNCES PERSON
NEL OF PEACE CONFEREES.
COMMISSION HAS FULL POWER
Two Russian Plenipotentiaries Are
Ambassadors Muravlett and Rosen.
Baron Komura and Minister Taka
hlra Will Represent Japan.
Oyster Hay, N. Y., July 3. Presl.
dent Hoosovolt authorized tho follow
ing announcement to bo made relatlvo
to the pending peaco negotiations be
tween llussla and Japan:
"Tho president announces that tho
nunslati and Jnpaneso governments
have notified him that they hnvo ap
pointed the plenipotentiaries to meet
here ns soon after tho 1st of August
an possible. Tho two Russian, pleni
potentiaries are Ambnssudor Mura
vleff, formerly minister of juutlco and
now ambassador at Home, und Am
bassador Itouen. Tho JapancEo pleni
potentiaries nro Ilaron Komura, now
minister of foreign affairs, und Min
ister Takahira. It Is possible that
each side may Bend ono or more addi
tional representatives. Tho plenipo
tentiaries of both Russia and Japan
will be Intrusted with full power to
negotiate and conclude u treaty of
peace, subject of course to ratifica
tion by their respective home govern
ments." The character and ability of tho
men selected by both belligerents is
an earnestness of tho deslro of their
respective governments to conclude,
if possible, tho tragedy being enacted
In the far eaHt. Some delay wbh oc
casioned In tho selection of tho pleni
potentiaries by tho Insistence of Ja
pan that the envoys of both govern
ments be clothed with full power to
conclude peaco and to negotiate a per
manent treaty. Tho Japanese govern
ment Indicated pointedly that the em
peror would not permit his envoys to
enter ujion n tentative conference In
which Japan wns to define Its terms
and then let Hussiu deeldo whether
the conferees tihould proceed with
their deliberations. Tho Toklo gov
ernment Insisted that the plenipoten
tiaries should have contorted on them
treaty making powers, and that thn
negotiations should be entered upon
In a spirit of perfect sincerity. Such,
too, wns the position taken by Presi
dent Roosevelt. He maintained thnt
only by clothing the envoys with am
ple authority to act for their respec
tive governments could a last hit; peace
bo achieved. He strongly urgvd tho
St. Petersburg government to livedo
to what was regarded as a reasonable
proposition of Japan.
Tho president's announcement frnc
tlcally concludes tho preliminary no
gotlatlons ror peace. Minor details
remain yet to bo arranged, but the
conference now seems to bo assured.
While no ubsoluto date for the m'qtylng
of the envoys has been fixed) Jlyhas
been determined thnt the first? sols Ion
will bo held In Washington about the
1st of August.
Duron Rosen already Is en roite to
tho United States, hit coming being
to succeed Count Casslnl ns thflf litis
slnn ambassador to this country.- It
Is probable that Ambassador Muravleff
will start soon for tho United States,
accompanied by a considerable staff
of secretaries, clerks and Interpreters.
Tho Japanese contingent of officials
nnd attaches, bended by Baron Ku
mura, It Is expected, will leave Japan
In time to reach Washington by the
1st of August.
No decision yet hns been renched
ns to the plnce of holding the sessions
of tho conference. For tho purpose
of organization nnd to determine upon
plana for the future, the plenipoten
tiaries will meet In Washington, but
It Is regarded as probable that nt an
early dato thereafter they will ad
journ to hold tho business sessions of
tho conferonco In aomo city on the
north Atlantic seaboard.
ARMISTICE TO STOP FIGHT
Negotiations Said to Be In Progress
at Washington.
Bt. Petersburg, July 3. Negotia
tions for an armistice between the
armit'B of Russia und Jnpan, It can be
definitely stated, are now In progress,
presumably at Washington, but they
have not reached a stage where any
further announcement can bo made.
The decision seems to rest with Ja
pan, which country Is weighing the
relliupilHhment of prospects of better
ing her present advantugnMis position
against the enormous cost In lives and
money of nuother great battle. The
chances for n decisive and final Japa
nese victory, It Is believed here, arc
no better now than before Llao Yang
nnd Mukden, and It Is pointed out thai
It Is Idle to talk of Vladivostok falling
like a ripe applo Into Japan's handy
before the peaes conference meets.
Root and Hart ts Fight at Reno.
Reno, Nov., July 8. The first prize

IMPORTANCE OF CARBON.
V'lthnat It or It F.ntilvnlrnt
we
CeM tlavr No Are l.lKht.
The electric are light as now so com
monly (mod Is produced by the passage
of a powerful electric current between
the slightly Kcpiiruted emit of a pair of
carbon roils, or carbons, about twelve
Inches long ami from time eighths to
one-half Inch In diameter, placed ver
tically end to end tu the lump. The
lamp tuechniilsin Is so constructed that
when no current is passing the upper
ciirbou, which is always made the post
tlvo one, rests upon the lower by the
action of gravity, but ns soon as tho
electric current Is established the cur
bous are automatically ncparatcd about
an eighth of an Inch, thus forming u
gap of high resistance In the electric
circuit, across which the current Is
forced, resulting In the production of
Intense heat The ends of the carbons
nro iptlckly heated to brilliant Incan
descence, and by the burning action of
tfic nlr arc maliitalin.il In the form of
blunt points. As the carbons burn
nwny, the lump mechanism feeds the
upper one downwind Just fast enough
to maintain the pioper separation.
Tho carbons are not heatisl eijually,
the upper or positive one being much
the hotter. A small cup shaped cavity or
"crater," ordinarily leas than an eighth
of mi Inch In diameter, Is formed III Its
end, the glowing concave mirface of
which emits tho greater part of the to
tal light. In lights of the usual size,
something like half n horsepower of en
ergy Is concentrated In this little cra
ter, and Its temperature Is limited mly
by the vaporization of the carbon. Car
bon being the most refractory sub
stance known, the temperature of the
crater Ih the highest yet produced art!
Ilclully nnd ranks next to that of the
Min. It Is fortunate that nature has
provided us with such a substance us
enrbou, combining, as It does, the high
est reslstai'ee to heat with the neces
sary electrical conductivity. Without
carbon or an ciutvalcut- and none 's
known-we could have no are light.
