TITE OMAITA DAILY BEE: MONDAY. JUNE 10. 1f0T President Roosevelt's proposal for a peace Conference in hereby manifested. After his conference with Ambassador Meyer, Count 1Cimndorff. the foreign min ister, wont Inst nliihl to Feterhof and laid the matter before the , emperor, who on learning that Insistence, on The Hague rnlajlit endancer tho negr'tlatlons. directed Count lAmsdorff to Inform Ambassador Meyer that Russia would accept Washing ton. It was after midnight whqn the foreign minister returned from Peterhof, but Am bassador Meyer wrs forthwith notified and a cipher dispatch wag prepared and sent to the State department at Washing ton at an early hour this morning. Count tamsdorff this afternoon made a public announcement of the gelectlon of Washington. The result Is looked upon ns a decided triumph for American diplomacy. Trlnmph for America. It was a triumph for American policy. In Certain fiuarters here envy and Jealousy of the United States are 111 Concealed. The en tire collapse of the negotiations was pre dicted yesterday and there was almost open exultation at what was declared to be a "rebuff to Roosevelt." Even In peac circles gloomy faces wore drawn at tho report that Russia would Insist uion The Hague, but thanks to tho personal attitude of the emperor and to the well put representation of Ambassa dor Meyer, the threatened diplomatic mountain has decreased to a mole hill, over which negotiations can now proceed rapidly. The Gazette, which Is known as a mouthpleco of the Foreign office, declares that nothing Is yet known regarding Ja pan's terms. It intimates that Russia may not balk at an Indemnity, significantly Mating that International control of the Chinese Eastern railroad Is possible as a means of securing payments of an In demnity. It fays that the plenipotentiaries will have special powers and may be au thorised to conclude peace. Although the way has thus been paved for a peaca conference, the operations in Manchuria appes to bo In full march towards a big engagement, the Japanese having pushed forward as far as Liaoyand Chungkeng (Liaoyang Wopeng). v. est of the Llao river, tlili ty-threu mile north of.Fakoman. The Japanese have strong forces here as well as In the rear of Lieu tenant General Llnevltch's advance de tachments near Chantufu, and even threaten the flunic of t!'s fortified, positions at Sipinghai, where General Llnevltch In tended to onVr battle, but from which he pushed far to tho southward during the months of Inactivity on the part of tho Japanese army. It Is hot known hero whethr r General Llnevltch will retire slowly on those positions irr whether, as he Inti mated recently In an Interview with tho correspondent of the Associated Press, he Intends to meet the Japanese flanking ope rations to the westward by an offensive movement.

MORE LIBERAL POLICY IN, INDIA Government Mnkei rovrlble Elastic ity of Collections of 1 e.it in Famine Years. CALCUTTA, June 18. (Special Cablegram to The Bee.) One of the most important promises in the viceroy's budget speech has been already redeemed by the Issue of a resolution In which the government of India deals fully with tho question of in troducing more elasticity into the collection of the land revenue. The matter is one which has been recognized for more than twenty years as of extreme Importance In dealing with famines, the recurrence of which, at Intervals, It is beyond the power of man to prevent. The famlno commission of 1S80 had before It several examples of widespread agrlcul tural Indebtedness largely duo to the rigidity with which prompt payment of tho land revenue, the government's prescrip tive share of the produce of tho soil as It really Is, was Insisted on during the great famines of the later 70s. Cultivators had been forced to have recourse to the money lender on ruinous terms, In order to meet tho demand, whether paid direct to the government or through the landholder as middlemen. Since those duys there has heen much Improvement In this respect, as was shown by tho liberal suspensions and remissions granted In the famine "of the concluding years of last Century"; Tho famine commission of 1901 recommended that the Installment for recovery should be fixed In advance. The government has Interpreted this In a reasonable way by deciding that each installment should be potifted well In advance of the date of col lection, the amount being Axed, In each case, with reference to the prospects of the crop on which It Is to be levied.

An eccentric elevator furnished an ex citing preliminary to a Jewish wedding ceremony at Myrtle hall at 6:30 o'clock yes terday evening and endangered for the time being the lives of nearly a score of people. Crowded with guests It had nearly reached the fourth floor In Its ascent, when a fuss In the dynamo operating It blew out, Stopping with a Jar it began a rapid de scent, which, however, was retarded by safety appliances before the bottom of the shaft was reached. As It was. the people In the elevator felt the force of the Impact when It reached the bottom and were badly shaken up, although no one was Injured. But even an elevator accident could not mar the pleasure of the wedding. The contracting couple were Morris Green and Miss Anna Millar, both of this city.

AVith all the promises held out some months ago for the paving of Missouri avenue, and VSst y street along with Twenty-fouth street the people were led to believe that these needed Improve ments would be made this year. Missouri avenue property owners do not appear to he Inclined to sign a petition and pay he entire cost of the grading and paving of the avenue when Railroad avenue was raved 4inder a different law. It Is the same with property owners on West Q street. There Is now only one good road eadlng to the city limits and that Is Rail road avenue. In rainy weather L street and Q street are at times almost Im passable. Merchants declare that the Con dltlons of these roads Is a detriment to trade and suggest that something be done as soon as possible to pave these roadways so as to make It easier for farmers and others residing In the country to reach tho clt;-. As for the Twenty-fourth street paving there seems to bo no hope of any improve ment on that street this year, unless It be tho filling of soma of tho worst holes with broken stone. When tho council had an ordinance Introduced providing for the paving of Twenty-fourth street from G to N street, leaving out some of the worst portions of the pavement, those who ne to be called upon to pay the tax protested and while this paving ordinance has been read In the council for the second time, it may not be passed when tho llnal reading comes, if It Is the property owners south of G street ha"e declared that they will go Into the courts and If possible prevent the authorities from pavins only a portion of the street. There is a rumor to the effect that this ordinance was introduced merely to nscer tain the feeling In the matter. Tho mayor and council are now aware of the feeling and it may be that this partial paving ordinance will not have sufficient votes to pass. What the people seem to want Is an ordinance Bimilar to the Railroad avenue and South Twenty-fourth street ordinance. If such an arrangement cannot be made there Is a very slim chance of any im provements to Twenty-fourth street this year. .New Madison School IlalldlnK. Contractor P. J.

Mr. Bock slated that he had plenty of brick lt sight and that he would make an unusual effort to complete four of the six rooms at this school house so that there would bo plenty of room for pupils when the school opens in September. Mr. Bock's Idea Is to get four rooms completed as soon as possible and then take a little more time to the construction of the other two rooms. Work on the Corrlgan school is to be re sumed .this week. Builders have been de layed considerably on - account of the scarcity of brick. Now that brick ' are being made right along contractors do not look for any great delay on account of a scarcity of brick. Anderson Hearing; Wednesday. For a day or two past deputy United States marshals have been in South Omaha serving subpoenas on a number of wit nesses wanted In the trlnl of George An derson on Wednesday of this week. An derson was employed at the Omaha Tack ing company, but when tho strike was de clared on he quit and so far has failed to secure 'his old position back. Along In April Anderson assaulted C. C. Beck man, who had taken the place of one of Anderson's friends at the Omaha plant. Anderson was arrested for the assault and In police court was fined. Later on the federal grand Jury returned an Indictment against Anderson for violating the In junction Issued last summer by Judge MTmger. , After D'anioud Thieves. Detective Elsfelder wus sent to Sioux City Saturday night by Chief Briegs to bring back Lillian Burdeen and James Beck, who are charged with stealing a diamond ring from a female Inmate of the Blue Front resort. A complaint against these two was filed and Chief Brlggs lo cated the people at Sioux City and caused their arrest. Elsfelder Is expected home today unless he should meet with legal complications. It Is understood at police headquarters that Mrs. Burdeen and Beck are willing to return without requisition papers. Assessor's Payroll. Tax Commissioner O'Nell has turned In to the city clerk his pay roll for asses sors who mode tho 1906 assessment. Thir teen deputies are on this roll and each worked forty days at S3 per day, therefore each deputy will be paid $120 for the time he put in. This makes a total of tl,5ii0 for deputies tn the tax commissioner's department. Of course the total cost of the assessment will be much more than the mere pay of deputies as the printing of books and forms have cost quite a sum. Equalization nasrd. Last week the city council met for two days as a board of equalization on grad ing districts, permanent and wooden side walk districts.

TROUBLE OVER NEW CHURCH Ilrltlsh Protestant Chapel at Itnree- lona May t'nuae Political Fer ment In Spain. BARCELONA, June lR-(Speclnl Cable gram to The Bee.) The action of Cardinal Cosana, bishop of .Barcelona, In raising a question with rcgacd to the Protestant chapel which has been built here at tho expense of British subjects for the pur pose of Anglican worship, nnd which has been consecrated by the English bishop of Gibraltar, Is regarded as rather ill-judged. The cardlnnt based his complaint on the fact that the Protectants had not compiled with the provisions of the lnw which pro hibits the use of all external emblems of a religious character In churches and chapels belonging to any other denomination than the state religion. There can be little doubt that the Spanish authorities would In any case have Ven- forced the existing law, as they hnve. In deed, done with nil due courtesy to the British consul nnd to the pottles who have specially Interested themselves In the new chapel. That In these circumstances tho cardinal should have published the text of the communications he received In his reply to his protest, not only from tho civil governor and from the prime min ister, but from the king himself, appears to be wholly unjustifiable. The premier and other members of the cabinet have declared thnt the government is quite pre pared", if necessary, to assume entire re sponsibility for the king's letter when the Cortes meet, but they consider that ex aggerated importance has been given by the opposition for their own political ends to a letter which the sovereign only signed.

(Special Cablegram to The Bee ) An amusing story of the kaiser Is now going the rounds. When away from homo on a cruise like his last In the Mediterranean, his majesty has a weakness for sending picture postcards, generally reproductions of snapshots taken by himself, to his friends. Sometimes he will keep a photograph of this kind for several months, or even years, before despatching it, and when the Incident photogruphed Is almost forgot ten some lady or gentleman Is reminded of It by a postcard from the Imperial houoe hold. As all his majesty's malls are sent under cover marked "Matter of the highest Im portance," and are delivered at whatever hour of the day or night tho whim to send them comes to him, some curious Incidents have occurred.

Expected the Mensnre, tVlilct Works a Revolution In France, Will Be Completed In the Next Thirty Dnys. PARIS. June IS. The question of the separation of church and state Is still occupying practically the whole attention of 'the Chamber of Deputies. The debate has Insted since March 20, but when It Is considered that -the reform means an utter reversal of tho long standing policy which regarded the church as a constituent part of the nation. It Is not surprising that discussion has been animated at times. However, the ardor of the debates appears to have died out since the passage of the first four sections, though the opponents of the measure continue to obstruct Its passage to tho best of their ability. De spite this and the long Interruptions oc casioned by the celebration of three re ligious festivals, Easter, the Ascension and Pentecost, much has been accom plished. Sixteen sections of tile total of the thirty-seven have been adopted, the fundamental principles of the new en actment therein comprised including the delicate questions declaring that the state does not give official recognition to re ligion; suppression of te public worship budget, and tho settlement of the great problem of the disposal of church property, the latter forming one of the most difficult questions raised by the bill. A method of pensioning members of the clergy claiming long service has also been satisfactorily devised, and it only remains now to settle a system for the formation of tho parochial bodies freshly brought Into being for the direction of government religious edifices, and also, to provide regulations for the control of the services. The two bodies will probably arouse con siderable argument, but tho committee having the measures In charge shows such willingness to accept reasonable sugges tions that It is hoped the entire bill will pass through the chamber before the long vacation, which begins about a month hence. half nn hour.

YACHTS BECALMED ALL MQIIT Fine Dreese Sprlntc Ip Later and Exciting Hnee Expected. LONDON, June 18. Nearly all the yachts which started from Dover yesterday In the annual race from Dover to Heligoland for Emperor William's cup, Including the American yacht Atlantic, winner of the transatlantic race, remafned becalmed and anchored outside tho Goodwin Sands, off Ram's Gate, until the ebb tide last night. The Valhalla was drifting down tho chan nel between Dover and Folkstone. . Early this morning a sharp thunderstorm with vivid lightning revealed the yachts for a long distance, and completely changed the weather. A Bharp squall followed, necessitating caution with the sails. Tho squall developed Into a fine whole sail breeze from the southwest. The yachts, which were: then quickly skimming the water at a fine pace, presented a splendid sight. The American yacht Apache left Dover bay this morning under full canvas, fol lowing the Heligoland course. If the strong wind continues It Is be lieved there will bo an exciting finish be tween the Atlantic and tho earl of Craw ford's yacht Valhalla. HAMBURG. June 18,-Emperor William sailed for Heligoland this afternoon on board the Imperial yncht Hohenzollern to await the yachts engaged In the race from Dover, to Heligoland for the emperor's cup. At 10 o'clock this morning the emperor conducted religious services on board the Hohenzollern, preaching from the Psalms, chapter xlvl, verse 8 "The Lord of hosts Is with us." Several of the officers and members of the crews of tho cruiser Ber lin and the torpedo boat destroyer Slelp ner, were present. The emperor called on Herr Ballin, director-general of the Hamburg-American steamship line, with whom tip remained German Workmen Have Progressed More Raptitly Than Those of C.rent Britain. LONDON, June IS. -(Special Cnblegram to The Bee.) In nn address this week Mr. Bonnr Law, one of the great statistical au thorities of the British empire, made an ad dress contrasting wages In England with wages paid In Germany. Mr. ltonar Law, who is not only one of the members of Parliament, but who Is also parliamentary secretary of the Hoard of Trade, said thnt certain newspapers nnd orators were never tired of pointing out that wages In Ger many were lower than In England. This was true, but they forgot to point out that they wore higher In America than in Great Britain to a much 'greater extent than wages In the United Kingdom were above those of Germany. It was to bo remem bered that tho Industrial competition be-, tween nations was in the nature of a race and It was necessary to take into account not only the point which competition had reached, but the Milnt of view. Liszt, the German economist, whose book was pub lished about the time that the corn laws were abolished stated that wages In Ger many were only about n fourth of what they were In England. 'That that was not so much of an engagement wns borne out by the first fiscal Blue Book which showed that during these sixty years the wages of Krupp's workmen had risen between 2n0 and per cent whereas the wages of similar workmen In this country bad ad vanced only about 2.1 per cent. The rate of wages also was not the sole considera tion, for what wns the use of having n high rate of wages If employment could not be obtained. There were two ways by which the position In Germany and this country could bo compared In thlB respect. One method was the trade union returns, and It must be borne In mind that Germany was the only country where such returns could be compared with those of this coun try, for In Germany ns here, the men re turned as unemployed were only those who received out of employment benefit from their societies. Returns from the societies for the end of March this year showed that In Germany the number of trado unionists giving returns was 782.(100 and the per centage unemployed was 1.6. In the United Kingdom ut the same date the number returned was 678.000 and the percentage unemployed was 5.6. From these figures It follows that among skilled workmen four more men out of every hundred were look ing In vain for employment than was the case In Germany. The other test was emi gration. Until the fiscal system In Ger many was changed by Prince Bismarck the number of emigrants from the German empire exceeded 100,000 per annum, and was, indeed, nearly as great as from this country. In 1OT the number of emigrants from the United Kingdom was 147,000, whereas from the Gorman empire, witli a population of 60 per cent greater, the num ber was only 35,000. of 2!3 for snd 2;U ngnlnst by (he union on June 8 bridged over tho trouble until the International Imdy Intervened by revoking the union's charter.

He added that a meeting of the employers would probnbly be called to consider the changed situation. Do Mot Sealert the f hlluren.
