Various rumors anything in the direction of peace it is without the imperial sanction, and is in reality only an unofficial en deavor to induce Japan to agree to negotiations on the lines of no cession of territory and no indemnity and to enable the advocates ot peace to point out to the emperor that peace is pos sible without any national humilia tion. To show that the emperor is still re calcitrant on the question of the pros ecution of the war they are spreading a ry to the effect that when Foreign III. T n.r..InfV- in n 4 -nnn t n I Ii I.

Mor gan Smith aud wife were arrested in this city today on a charge of conspir acy to murder. Tho arrest was made on the telegraph request of District Attorney Jerome, of Now i'ork city. Nan Patterson, the actress, who was twice put on. trial for the murder of Caesar Young, in New York, on May 4, 1904, is charged with conspiracy in the same connection, a new indict ment to this effect having been found in New York today.

Fifteen secret service men who have been frequenting corri dors of the building where the grand jury is in session were not to be seen today. GUNSHU PASS, March 3. Recon noieances disclose special activity on the part of the Japanese on the west near the Mongolian frontier. It is reported that an anti foreign propa ganda is being conducted among the Chinese, who are stirred up to a re newal of the boxer disturbances. The Hunyuanmin societies of Muk den and Kirin and tbeTastli society, which is strong in northern Manchur ia, are said to be working to spread this agitation among the Manchurian pop ulation and Japanese success is dd'ing much to augment the movement. Many Chinese bandit chieftains are leaders iu numerous secret societies, extending throughout China, and their influenco may have a powerful effect on the attitude of the Chinese govern ment and people.

UU.SiiU iABS, April 1. All IS quiet here. The. heavy curtain of the Japanese outposts effectually conceals the strength ot the Japanese positions. Contradictory reports are' being re ceived frm Chinese fugitives the most of which indicate that there is a con stant movement of Japanese northeast, as though with the intention of effect ing a turning movement at Kirin to cover the beginning of an attack on Vladivostock. Chinese also report that the con struction of the railroad fromSinmin tin to Mukden has begun. Snow has fallen and the roads are softening again into mud and are in a wretched condition.

April 3.-President Roosevelt has carried out his plans for tho reorganization of the Isthmian Canal -commission as to its personnel and business methods generally on the lines of tho legislation he suggested to congress at ths last session, which failed in the crush of the business at the closing hours. Tonight, within half an hour after the president's de parture fiom Washington Secretary Taft, who is directly in charge of can al matters, made pub.ic the personnel of the new commission and the divis ion of duties among them. Only one member of the old commission was reappointed, Benj. M. Harrod. Other wise the commission is new (rem top to bottom and there is a considerable difference between the functions and pay of the commissioners. Finding he was obliged legally to appoint seven commissioners, the president did so, but ho carried out bis own ideas by making three practically the fufl com mission. The other four, though bear ing the title of commissioners, not only receive mui)h lower compensa tion, but are assigned much smaller field activities. The piesident also carried out his scheme of dividing up the work of canal building amoog the commissioners, so that nominally act ing us a body on stated occasions, each individual member would operate in a special field. The head commissioner is a trained railroad man, the new governor of the zon'e is a lawyer. The engineer commissioner is already known for his ability in the execu tion of the practical work of canal cutting. Other members of the com mission are placed to comply with the law as to the number of the commis sion, but are men of high ability as hydraulic engineers. After their induction into office and their consultation with Secretary Taft, the commissioners met and or ganized. Under the president's order, the actual headquarters of the com mission is to be Panama and there will probably be a considerable trans fer of employes from Washington to that place, leaving here only a small force. Chairman Sbonts, Governor Magoon and Engineer Wallace will spend most of their time in the zone. The first action taken was the ap pointment of an executive. committee composed of Sbonts, Magoon, Wallace. DALLAS, Tex., April 3. Frank J. Bell, a prominent attorney of this city and grand counsellor of the Knights of Pythias, was shot and kill ed today by R. R. Parker, the chief deputy district clerk.

PETERSBURG, April a De velopments resulting from Emperor William's speech at 'Tangier on Fri day continue to attract great discus sion in press and diplomatic oiroles.
