WASHINGTON. Aug. 25.— 1n both the
army and the navy the feeling is growing
that the {only way to put an end to the
present large number of desertions of sol
diers and sailors is for the public uni
formly to ostracize the men who have
taken French leave . before completing
their terms of enlistment. Colonel Will
iam T. Duggan, First United States In
fantry, commanding the Department of
the Lakes at Chicago, has reported to
the War Depaitriient that there were 393
disertions in that department during the
year just ended. He says: "Desertions
will continue cs long as public sentiment
favors tJ:e deserter."
The dtsertions in the navy, despite ef
forts to give the men gTeater liberty, still
average from 10 to 13 per cent of en
libtcd personnel. The beet thought of
naval officers in high posts is to over
come this tendency and especially in the
North Atlantic fleet are efforts exerted to
make sailors csnttnt. It is said that in
England desertion constitutes a less
troublesome factor of the naval policy
for the reason that public stntiment is
heartily opposed to recognizing on a
basis of civuity or equality any man de
serting from his Majesty's ' service.
American naval officers say that desert
ers find in this country a credulous public,
ready to listen to and sympathize with the
bluejacket who excuses his desertion on
the false plea 'mat the hardships in' the
navy are more than a man can long en
dure

Action- was taken to-day at a meet
ing of the State Boarb of Health to
enable the Federal authorities to put a
stop to indiscriminate travel between
infected points and New Orleans. The
resolution adopted is general in char
acter and authorizes any local health
otticers of infected localities to prohibit,
the introduction Into their communities
or persons acclimated, unacclimated or
said to be immune, when in their judg
ment such introduction would add to
or increase the prevalence of the dis
ease. Persons known to reside reg
ularly in an Infected locality in Louis
iana are to be admitted into their
homes when they furnish satisfactory
proof of residence*.
The yellow fever situation to-day
was regarded as having undergone no
: change. Dr. White's announcement
that if the people will faithfully screen
and disinfect and obey the regulations
which have been made and if all efforts
continued as at present to- remove cases
promptly it is possible that there will
be an entire cessation of the infection
within the next thirty days has spread
a most hopeful feeling throughout the

MAY BE UP TO WITTE. '
When the President's first effort fall
-ed he^dld not discourage, a second at
tempt in such a way that the Emperor
would have .difficulty In declining, out
of courtesy ' to the President, to em
power : : Mr. '\u25a0 Witte -at least \u25a0'" tenta
tively to proceed with the negotiations
and see 5 if a satisfactory basis -could
not be arranged, reserving; the-last
word to himself. Should such author
ity come at the. eleventh" "hour Mr.
Witte might make the "best .terms he
coulid and then figuratively throw; ' a
treaty at the Emperor's feet to . take
or leave, yes or no. As a politician, Mr.
Witte did not relish the Idea having it
said when he, returned to Russia that he
had made a "bad peace." lie might pre
fer the Emperor to shoulder, that .'re
sponsibility, j But shortly "before mid
night Mr. Witte gave absolutely no en
couragement to the idea that thero
would be a change of heart at -St
Petersburg. Unless Tokio was ready i
to recede further he expressed the opin-.
ion that all was over. He said:
NO MESSAGE RECEIVED.'.
"I have received .no telegram from
St. Petersburg which changes the sit
uation. Indeed. I do not expect: any.
I have not asked instruoiions. so that
I cannot receive any. If to-morrow
there is to be v change it must como
from the Japanese side.""-
This would seem to indicate that the=
President's second effort had failed at
St. Petersburg.- What, if anything, ha
has been able to do at Tokio through
his Interview with Baron Kaneko this
afternoon still remains a mystery.
That the last word has not come from
Tokio and that Baron Komura may still
appear in a conciliatory role to-morrow
may possibly be inferred from the fol
lowing fact: : :
The time for the sitting of the con
ference to-moirow was, not. set when
.the adjournment was taken on Wednes
day. \u25a0 •This evening ' Mr. Witte noti
fied . the Japanese mission that he was
ready to meet .It .in .. the' morn- j
ing at 9:30 o'clock. The Jap
anese, '• after.- consultation, -demurred,
on the ground that the minutes of the
last meeting would not be ready in time.
Therefore, at their ' reauest; the meet
