to his native, cccaty. Westreeaith. Bo bJ
on a tcur for ths purpose of seeing; the
principal churches of the British Isles
and the Continent, with a view to the
erection of a new cathedral In St. Ixtuis.
His Grace Is accompanied by W. J. Kln
scHa. late dlrrctor of the louliiana Pur
chase Kxpofitlcn.
Doctor Glennon is very much Interested
In Ireland and Its future, and In dlscuas
1ns; politics said that the question of Ire
land's future tTlicht be divided Into four
parts the !and problem, the educational
question. Industrial prosperity and au
tonomy. His Grace said he had noticed the ef
fects of recent legislative measures se
cured by the leaders or the Irish Parlia
mentary party. -nd was very hopeful for
the future of Ms native land. He said
that in re-rard to land agitation, to him
it seemed that the only difficulty remain
ing waa thst there was no measure of
compulsory sale.
Archbishop Glennon paid high tribute
to John Redn-.r. nd as a leader, not only of
the Irlih partv. but of the opposition.
ard was gratified on learning of the re
cent lctoricj n-.er the Unionist admlnls
tration. lie. complimented the moving
srlrits in their battle for higher educa
tion for Ireland, and said that this was
equally as Important as the tend problem
ard political autonomy.
When the subject of Immigration waa
broached, his Grace warmed up and said
that hu advice to the young men and
women of Ireland was to stick to their
native land, which, he said, ho noticed
was showlna; evidences of progress In all
Urectlo&s.
"There is." said Archbishop Glennon. -a
future before our country, and I can see
ti reason in the world why young men
and women should leave here to seek a
Ilx-irsr outside Ireland. Their prospects are
much better is their own land titan on
foralgs shores.
"Ton hear a great deal about the suc
cessful emigrant, but you hear very little
of the hundreds who do not succeed. Tour
Country is capable of development. lt
jour joung peop'e stay nt home and ie
ap It. and so do the right thing for
them-He- and for their country."
His Grace th-n ma-ie some valuable sug
gestions for tl purpose of attracting
tourists to Ireland He pointed out that
Ireland has the climate and scenic at
tractions to induce il!tors to Journey
through the country, but said that there
waa a lack of system In advertising the
resorts.
He referred to the efforts made by oth
er countries- to attract toortsts. Switzer
land, for example, and he said that a
xmnlrj like Ireland, which had the m
pathy of "America, could c-illy ee-ure the
patronase of American tourists by a llt
t! exertion on th iame lines adopted
by the Snl-ia and other penple-j.

busy day in St. Louis yesterday. He held
frequent cons-jltaticns with promtnent !o

The fact that Wiaiam J. Bryan recently

Portsmouth. N. It. Attjr. IS. Black pes
simism reigns at Portsmouth to-night.
The prevailing view is that the fate of tho
Peace Conference Is already sealed: that
It has ended In failure, and that all that
now remain is for the plenipotentiaries to
meet on Tuesday, to which day they ad
journed this afternoon upon completing
the seriatim consideration of the Japanese
terms, sign the final protocol, go through
the conventions and bid each other fare
well. In other words, that tho meeting
Tuesday will be what diplomacy calls the
"seance d'adlco."
But there is still room for hope or a
compromise. Neither President Roosevelt
nor the Powers will see the chance of
peace shipwrecked without a final effort,
and that pressure Is belnjr exerted, es
pecially at ToUio. to Induce Japan to mod
erate her terms, is beond question. Jut
in hat Is being dene or is to be done haa
not tranp'red.
King BIward Ts understood to be now
lending a helping hand, and the financiers
of the world are known to be exerting all
their influences.
EMPCRORS SirST
IVE FlVtl. DECISION.
At ToUo and Su Fiteriburg the final
Ufue will be decided.
In the oral dIscuston of th terms. Mr.
Witt lelded upon two articK?. but bub
stati'.UIly the remit of the thirteen sitting
of tho plenlpotcnti tries lw.s only been to
it&phas'zrt tho porltton taken by Mr. Wltte
in th v.ritten reply he prontcd Lt Sat
urday ta the Jaiuncse terms. And no
lioth iides turn to home for the last void
tt.foro the cards ar: thrown face down
ward upon th table, r.ert Tuesday, for
Uw imas.j reaefcel to-day by the plcr.l
patcnttaries is recosnircd to le only a
diplomatic Hcllcn.
FRt.SH FSTRICT10 MAT
CAlE A COMPRUM1S1'-
If. In the Interim, frirfi instructions are
received by cither side, compromise is jet
po.blo. But tho chances arc rtcogniz'd
to be .Ilm. f-ir aa the Itusaian plenl
pottJitlarics are conctrned there never w.a
a chance of their jic'.dlns botli intlerar.it v
and Sakhalin. The cession of Sifchalln
without indemnity was. according to tho
boM inside information, the extreme limit
to which Mr. Witte would 'e-icr consent
to go am! the Er.rcror has not jet gl:n
the word even to concede that.
And to-night suddenly a new factor has
been Introduced, which, in the opinion of
thoe most competent to Judge. lesr.s
materially the cliances that ho might eio
.), namely, the Issuance of hi manifesto
granting a popular recrcsci.tatUe l'y to
his sabjeeta. Tho l-aringi or this "his
tcric document." as Mr. Wltto describe!
it a few days ago. upon the issue are easily
comprehensible. It is bound to amellorato
the internal situation in Russia. It is the
enter.ng wedge for the realization of the
ccnturj-old dream of the Russian peo
ple. JAP S TS I TMOT
HAS BEEN DOSE.
The gravity cf the situation rrom the
Japanese point of V.cw Is contained In the
follow ins authoritative statement given to
the Associated Prt:
"I canr.st say positively because all
things ars po-'slble: but I fear that the
meeting on Tuesday will be the farewell
.vision vf the Vash.r.gton conference. Ja
pan has done her utmost for peace. Rus
sia now knows Japan's irreducible mini
mum." Mr. Witte hlmlf tnlght gave not the
slightest encouragement. For publication
he said:
"We meet Tuesday only to s!;n th
protocol." with the accent on the word
"cnly."
The Associated Prs Is able to state
that the res-rved potri. In article T. to
which agreement was only reached "tn
principle.- relates to establishing of the
status south of Hartta ceded branrh of
the Eastern Railway U to be begun. Rus
sia returned a negative reply to ths rc
linqulsbmest to the interned warships.
On article XI. the limitation upon Rus
sia's naval power, practically Sir. Witt
decl'nes to agree to allow rath a pro
riatcn to go Into a treaty, tut offered to
state oa behalf of his Government that
Russia had no Intention of maintaining
In the far East a naval force which would
constitute a threat against Japan or any
ether Power.

to Jacob H. SchlfT. the banker, to-day. at

he is a member.
Mr. Schlff was at Bar Harbor to-day.
and when the machine. Inclosed ta
wooden box about six Inches long; waa
received at hie office, clerks Immediately
sent It to the police.
At first the police explained that th af
fair was a Joke, but further Investigation
by an expert revealed the presence of
thirty-one grains' of a high explosive
pov.der and -two K-callber loaded car
tridges. Arranged so as to fire this charge mere
ly by ordinary handling of the package
was a cyiinicr of emery paper lying in
or.tact with lKth the powder and several
matches. The flash of this powder w-ou'd
have, discharged the cartridges, which livl
been cirefully filed nt the fulminating
em's. I-ead slugs were packed in K-side
th bullets, evidently to make the d's
chariw more dangerou.
Throughout the machine there waa an
oily saturation to insure the flash of any
one of the matches reaching the powder.
The whole mcchanUm was concealed un
der a newspaper wrapping of Wall street
stock quotations.
Mr. Schiff was one of the delegation
which recently visited Mr. Witte. the Rus

Tho Empire of Roasts Is formed and

th course of centuries by protecting her

has constituted up to the preent time a
pledge of unity. Independence, tntcrtritj.

velopment. "In our manifesto of Febrnarv J. I!
we railed to a elcge understanding all th
faithful sons of the fatherlnm! In order to
protect the orrartsatlon of the strife b
establtshlng on firm baMs the domestic,
life of the Empire, and then we devolved
ourselves to the task of o-ordfnatltiT
elective public Institutions with govern
mental authorities, and f removing th
disagreements existing between them.

normal course of our national life.

to take constant and active part tn tli
elaboration of the laws, thereby attach

measures and srlth the examination of the
state budget.
"It ts for this reason that, while pre
serving th fundamental taw regarding the,
autocratic power, we have deemed It welt
to form a gosudarstvennahv douma (lower
house of the sssemhly). and to approve)
the regulations for elections to th's dnuma.
extending the validity of these laws to
th whole territory of the Empire, srlth
such exceptions only as may be consid

delegates from the Grand Duchy of FIs
land on questions concerning the Empire

"At the same time we have ordered th
Minister of th Interior to submit imme
