A number of these statements are merely hearsay and sifted down to the actual personal knowledge of the affiants sre valueless for Information before the grand Jury now In session at Chlrago. Judge Baxter says: "Some of these stories are pure fabrica tions and are based on mere rumor. I have received a number of letters from persons claiming to be familiar with al leged rants, who are anxious to be given transportation to Chicago to testify before the grand jury there. Upon investigation I find that there Is nothing to their evidence. The depositions can be taken here as well as at Chicago, and It Is not the de sire or purpose of District Attorney Mor rison to accommodate a lot of fake wit nesses and run up v big bill of expense and afford them an exouse for a free ride to Chicago. However, such information as may be obtained as Is of any value will be sent to, Chicago, and the witnesses also If It Is thought that their oral evl . dence Is th. more valuable." Looking- la Fencing; Cases. j The three special Inspectors of the land department now In the field In western Ne I braska looking after the illegal fencing of ' the public lands are directed to report to District Attorney Baxter. Several reports have already been received at the office of the district attorney and proceedings will be commenced against the accused parties before the grand jury, which assembles here In May. A number of flagrant viola tions of the fencing lnws have recently been ascertained and the offenders will be rigorously prosecuted. Such at least Is the Information given out by Judge Baxter. He Is of the opinion that much of the time of the grand Jury will be taken up with the fencing rases and some Interesting de velopments are looked for. There seems to be a lull in bootlegging matters up on the Indian reservations, which Mr. Baxter attributes to the wholesome prosecutions of these cases dur ing the last term of the federal courts and the consequent conviction of a host of the bootleggers.

Efforts to Bring Be form ta afactdonia at a Standstill. INTERESTED IN THE BRITISH SCHEME Relief Expressed that German? Will .Try to Block Movement by Great Rrltaln and .Noth ing; Will Re Done. VIENNA, March 29. The statement made by the British foreign secretary. Lord Lnnaduwne, in the House of Lords yesterday on the subject of Macedonia was read here with great interest today In of ficial circles, where the opinion was reiter ated to the Associated Press that the Meurzsteg (Austro-Russian) reform pro gram has now come to an absolute stand still and Is inoperative. Lord Lansdowne's suggestion of the necessity for a project of further reforms, including the financing of Macedonia, was well received In official circles, but little hope Is entertained of successfully carrying It out primarily, be cause the opinion prevails that If this is attempted Germany will withdraw from the existing union of the reform powers and use its Influence because of its vari ous Interests In Turkey to counteract with the porte any further reform measures proposed by Great Britain. Macedonian conditions have lately been attracting more attention here because of Great Britain's attitude and also In view of the fact that with the spring comes a recurrence of the rumors, mostly emana ting from Turkish sources, of active prep arations on the part of Bulgarian bands for crossing into Turkey. The general situation in Macedonia, while believed here to be serious enough, Is con sidered nevertheless to be more hopeful and more promising than it was a year ago. The Bulgarian diplomatic agent this morning Informed the Associated Press that Bulgaria was doing all possible to stop the formation of Bulgarian bands and their operations against Turkey. Bulgaria Wants 1'eaee, To this end the orders which were pro mulgated last year regarding the main tenance of a zone twenty miles wide in Bulgaria along the Turkish frontier under strict military rule Instead of civil adminis tration have again been promulgated lately with renewed emphasis. The purpose Is to render more effective the efforts of Bulgaria to stop the formation and the movements of bands operating against Turkey. Regarding the depredations and the on slaughts of Grecian bands upon Bulgarians, the latter naturally will protect themselves and retaliate energetically. A report from Constantinople to the ef fect that the Turks have found with dead bodies of former members of Bulgarian bands Mannllcher ritles bearing a stamp showing that the rifles belonged to the Bulgarian army, if true, is considered here as being Important and as possibly showing that the Bulgarians are In secret con nivance with t: a bands. But In fairness, It must be remembered that these rifles may have been obtained Originally two years ago, when Bulgaria's attitude toward the bands was different from what it is de clared to be today. In official circles the Cretan situation is not considered dangerous or of much importance. RUSSIA NOT READY (Continued from First Page.)

On the contrary the general view is that Japanese official opinion Is pessimistic concerning peace being realized. Japan May Proceed. This Indicates that the preliminaries have not made appreciable progress, or else that Japan does not Intend to Interrupt its successful campaign. It Is .even intimated In a high quarter that It makes no dif ference what St. Petersburg decides rela tive to asking for peace, as it will re main for Toklo to accept or reject it. Therefore It Is maintained the peace situa tion has shifted from St. Petersburg to Toklo, which now holds the key to the peace question: Although official Information is lacking, it Is asserted In well informed quarters that Japan has permitted Russia to learn that the peace conditions will be severely rigorous and will not be responsive to the recent sentimental plea to Japan's magnanimity. In particular, it Is said, that Japan's Indemnity figure Is S0D,000,00o, and that this stupendous Bum has proved so staggering to Russian diplomacy that it Is the chief cause why the peace pre liminaries do not advance to a decisive stage. Rla; Fight Expected Nest Week. BT. PETKRSBl'RG, March 30.-2:20 a. m. Another duel between the opposing armies In Manchuria may be on the progrum for the coming week. - The Russians, according to the Associated Press Harbin correspond ent, are now strongly fortifying their posi tions at Slpinghai against what Japanese are reported to be gathering in force. The Russian retirement from Slpinghai to Cha oumlaodzi was incorrect, due to a tele graphic error In the confusion of similar Chinese names, Chaoumiaodzl with Shua muyaotszl, south of Slpinghai, whence tha Russian advanced forco retired to the for tified line at Slpinghai. The Japanese fol lowed to some extent, but a border of twenty miles of debatable ground still re mains between the two armies, over which the Japanese probably will not advance until they are ready to attack. Equally Important news Is that a column of Japa nese Is moving against Kirln, perhaps with the Intention of turning the position east ward and striking at the Vladivostok lino of communication, with the double purpose of isolating the fortress and separating General Llnevltch'a srmy from n valuable base of supplies, the Ussurt district.
