Probable Attltarie of Japan. Japan's terms continue to be a niatter for earnest speculation. A well Informed dip lomat, who says he knew Japan's terms before the battle of Mukden, considered them to have been Very moderate, and be lieves that erven now they will bo found to be not unduly harsh. Private advices received from a Russian source at (Shanghai say It Is certain that Japan will demand the' surrender of all ships Interned In eastern waters, which may be another Item offsetting Indemnity. Papers supposed to have semi-official In spiration eontlnue to speak dubiously of the results, but it Is notlceuhle that the cheap and popular papers like the Gaxette plainly advise the people to reconcile themselves to defeat and peace. With peace In sight, by a strange per versity, some of those who were loudest In Its favor when it was below the horlron seem suddenly to have changed their atti tude, finding It less attractive than when it was opposed by the government.

FUTILE SEARCH FOR MURDERER Claea So Far Ran Down Have Lead to No Results, Rut Hunt Is Continued. rLATT8MOt'TIlTNeb., .tune li.-("p-clal.) The search for Max Floehn. the mur derer, has thus far rroven fruitless. The clues reported yesterday were followed up by the bloodhounds, but In both Instances It was found that the men who had been seen were members of a searching party In quest of Plochn. While the theory that the murderer has drowned himself In the river appears to be the most plausible one at this time, the officers are still at work on minor duos. Sheriff MoBrlde was notified this morning that the officers at Auburn had arrested a man who answered Ploehh's description, and an officer was detailed to Investigate the Auburn capture. The sheriff, accompanied by a number of citizens and the bloodhounds, today made a thorough search of the bottoms on the east side of the river, but it Is unlikely that any valuable clues will be obtained over there. Cards containing a picture and descrip tion of the murderer have been sent to the officers at all towns within a radius of 200 miles of Plattsmouth. The funeral of Alma Goos, the murdered girl, was held from St. Paul's Evangelical church this afternoon. " V5DAY SCHOOL COSVEHTIO off Mrs. Maggie Grigs. Shout fane. J. J.

He had always been known as tho "Hungarian archduke" and was deeply loved by the Hungarian people. He was son of the last but one "palatln of Hun gary." He was educated In Hungary, as Hungarian and In the Hungarian spirit Contrary to the accepted regulations of Austrian court etiquette In the matter of the education of members of the royal family. Archduke Joseph's boyhood was passed with peasant boys as his playmates and companions. He entered his father's Hussar regiment in 1846 and saw much active service. On his return from the wars he was made commander-in-chief of the Hungarian Honved, or reserve army, holding this post until his death. Joseph did much, or tried to do much for the gypsies of Hungary. He mastered the gypsy language and wrote an excellent grammar of this most difficult tongue. Ho tried to settle the question of gypsy vaga bondage by offering to any gypsy who wanted to settle down a patch of land, a good home and help In making a start as an agriculturist. All these efforts, how ever, were in vain. In memory of a son who died as a result of a shooting the archduke and his wife, the Princess Clo tilde ot Saxe-Coburg and Got ha, estab lished an Institution for the cure of crip pled children. The loss of a second grown up child last year bore heavily upon the archduke, and ever since he has lived quietly in his country home, "Villa Gul seppl, at ADazzuia.

CRAFT CnARGES IN CHICAGO Teamiten' Strike Lost Sight of in Briber Talk Growing Out of It. LARGE SUMS PAID TO LABOR LEADERS John C. Drlseoll, Attorney for Team Owners, Alleges that Strikes Were Declared OS for a Consideration. CHICAGO, June 13. The teamsters strike proper has almost been lost sight of, the attention of both sides to tho controversy being occupied more with the charges of bribery In connection with labor unions In Chicago than, with the real Issue. Within the next twenty-four hours, It was said to night, a history of the secret transactions of labor unions In Chicago for the past four years will be made public, and that the information will Implicate many labor leaders whom it is asserted have accepted bribes to call off strikes. The man who is expected to give this Information is John C. Drlseoll, former secretary of the Coal Team Owners' association, who has been the Intermediary between the employers and the teamsters' unions In this city for the past four years. Drlseoll Will Testify. Tomorrow morning, Drlseoll says, he will appear before the grand Jury with docu mentary evidence showing that several labor leaders have been receiving largo sums of money through Drlseoll, which It Is declared by him that; the employers were forced to pay to prevent their employes being called out on strike. To substantiate his statements, Drlseoll displayed tonight a bank check lxok, the stubs of which he said correspond to the amounts of money paid to these labor leaders. This bank book will be offered In his testimony tomorrow before the grand Jury. The method used by Drlseoll, according to his own state ments, was this: An emnolyer or an organization of em ployers who was affected by a strike or who were likely to b would call and ask him to use his Influence to bring about an adjustment of the difficulty. The fees paid the union men, according to Drlseoll, ranged rrom 1( to thousands of dollars, the aggregate being estimated by htm at $80,000. Drlseoll declares that he never re ceived a dollar of this money for his efforts In averting trouble, exceht his salary from the organizations of which he was acting as secretary.

It Is estimated that fully 25,000,000 gallons of water was pumped from the tunnel be fore the tracks were cleared sufficiently to permit the resumption of traffic. It was between Fourteenth and Forty-second streets that the most serious trouble was encountered.

Fire completely destroyed one of the new carriage sheds recently completed at Fort Omaha at a little before midnight last night. It Is not known how the fire origi nated, but It is said there has been a num ber of tramps seen In that vicinity for the past several days, and the opinion that the fire originated from this source is advanced. The government has recently finished build ing several carriage sheds and barns on the old fort grounds preparatory to the occu pancy of the place by the signal corps, and the building destroyed last night was only completed a day or two ago. Owing to the distance of water from the fort it was difficult to get control of the Are, and this. along with the fact that the alarm was not turned In for some time after the fire had started, was the cause of the building being completely destroyed. Government officials could not be located last night and the value of the building could not be learned. COWIN SUCCEEDS KARNES FUNERAL OF MR.
