JAPS TO FORTIFY CAPE SOYA. Yamamoto Says Cnt of Taking Vladivostok Would llr.ve Been Far Heavier Than That of Port Arthur. Toltto. Sept. 9. W a. m. List night was uneventful and this morninc was nrderly and quiet. Belief that the disorder has ended la growing. At an informal m?cttnt; which took place late yesterday between the Premier. Count Katsura. and members of both houses represent :nc their respective par Oea and aasoclation-. Count Katsura made a full statement concerning the peace ne gotiations. It now transpires that the report that Cape Soya, on La Perouse Straits, could not b fortlneil. Is unfounded, the only stipulation made with llus!a being In re gard to the free rassage "' le rtralts. Japan acquires a suzerainty over Korea and will control entirely with a free hand the affair of th peninsula, railroad source of Changchun, not Ch.-.nztfc. the former being ceded to Japan, with the right to retain military guards for the pro tection of the railroad. Jaian also holds the risht to retain the collieries at Fustian and Yvntai. even aft er the evacuntlon of the country by the Russians. About ttn months Is the period allowed to complete the removal of the Russian troops from Manchuria. The actual exper.se of ktcplng the Rus sian prisoners of war is to b? paid to Japan. liaron Yamimoto. Minister of the Navy, who was present at the meeting, said that although there was a strong popular dis satisfaction with th terms of peace, it must be borne In mind that a far heavier sacrifice of life would lie necessary to take Vladivostok tlian that involved in tho rapture of Port Arthur. b sides the heavy monetary outlay It was advisable, therefore, hi said, to be satisfied with tho present terms. In conclusion, liaron Yamamoto said that Russia was euro to build a strong navy nnd that Japan must be prcpatcd to moke adequate provision for such a contingency. M. OlshL leader of the Progressive party, suggested that the Cabinet should resign after concluding peace on Sich un satisfactory term. When the fact that tio stipulation ex ists against the fortification Cat o Soya and that Japan Is to have a free band in the government of Korea becomes known. It is expected that popular Indignation will be considerably allayed. KOMURA AND TAKAHIRA VISIT PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. Oyster Bay. L. I.. Sept. ?.

Some strange new engine of destruction is believed to have been used iu the killing of two boys who have met tragic deaths wtihln the last week near Sar.d Ridge, nine miles southwest of here. It is the theory of Coroner W. 3. Forshe. that a firearm, might have been used to discharge a sharp Instrument resembling a knife blade. In each Instance the victim died from an apparent stab wound in the heart, though the circumstances were aueh that no one could fejssibV have I-een close enough to them to inflict a knife wound. Immediately before the death of each Of the bos a shot was heard In a near by cornfield. The Coroner says that, though he re turned verdicts of accident, they may be set asiie at any time, if evidence as to the idintity o ft he murderer is revealed. The victims were Heber Worthon. years old. and Willie Clutts. 9 years old. The circumstances nirronndins treir deaths were almost Identical. Without warning, naif while suronimUd by r.uue ur of their families, both boys.with a cry of agony lurched forward and died hefot- aid could l summoned. The Worthen boy was stricken Septem ber 1. and the Clutts boy on last Tues day. The stab wound In earh case was through the lower j-ortion of the heart. Th tragedies occurred at almost the same hour, about o'clock in the even ing. When the Worthen boy received his fatal wound he wan driving up the cows. With him were his two little sisters, and his mother awalttrd his coming at the gate of their home. Mrs. Worthen had an nn obtrueted ew of the lane, along which the children cere approaching the house. On one side of them was a dense wood and on the other a cornfield. The chil dren were within a hundred yardw of the house, when a shot sound in the corn field. Instantly Heber fell forward on his face. "I am killed." he cried. He arose, staggered to his mother, fell in her arms and died. The Clutts hoj's death was almost ex aitiy similar. He. tm-. was driving home the cows-. His father and mother heard a .-hot In a near-by undergrowth and simultaneously the boy fill with a cry ROCKEFELLER SAYS HARD-TIMES CRISIS IS DUE FOR 1907-08 CIiiitiKo. 111.. Sept. !. John I.

From an investigation mad by Coroner Forshee. it seems i!mt certain that no one could have stabbed the lya in the ordinary way. They were under the eyes of their parents all the time. No stranger appeared within the limited rang of vision, flanked by heavy Umber ar.d com 81.1. The theory, that the boy were injured through falling on stubble. Is set sride by the fact that both of tl:em were heard tc cry out before ihcy fell- The wounds were of such a nature that they could not have been made by a bullet, according to Poo tor Forshee. and he is forced to fall back on the theory that there was some con nection between the repcrts of Arcana aad the death, ia each case. If the Injury was a result of the Sring. it follows, he say, that the gun was loaded not with a bullet, but with some tling In the nature of a stiltetto blade, very sharp oa both edgci and probably 2sj Inches long. To The Republic corre spondent he said: "I could have determined whether or not such a missile bad been used. I." I had made a post-mortem examination. but the parents were unwilling to liave this done. Ordinary probing would not disclose the presence oi' the. bdalc if it had penetrated very far." A theory has been advanced that oae of th two crazy men who have lieen known to be at large In the Bind Ridge district, at various times, may have com mitted the crime. One of these men. John Henson. Is said to have once threatened the father of the Worthen boy. I do not believe that these crimes were the work of a maniac. It is more probab'c that, when the whole thing Is sifted down, it wilt be found that the murderer Is a man who Is sane oa most matters', but who has perverted in stinct which prompts htm to try new and unusual methods for IntVctlng death. No one could have any sne motive for kliUng boy of this age. but a pervert of this kind might have gor.e so far as to try his new uml sfrnnse weapon on them by way of experiment. While no peo has been sent out.
