ONE MORE CHANGE
Linievitch Makes Urgent Plea
Against Peace.
VICTORY ALMOST AT HAND
Russian War Party Uses Strong
PresMire on Czar to.End Nego
tiations Plans to Mobil
Ire 3Iore Troops.
ST. PETERSBURG. June 21. (2:15 A.
M.) Diplomatic measures for the peace
conference are continuing in the face
of 6teady pressure brought to bear by
the militant faction.
Lieutenant-General Linievitch has
again -wired the Emperor saying that
victory ia almost at hand, and begging
that he and his army be not deprived
of the opportunity to restore the pres
tige of Russian arms.
Minister of War Sakharoff had an
audience yesterday with the Emperor
at Peterhof, and he said that ho pre
sented to His Majesty measures for an
other mobilization of troops and urged
the advisability of their adoption.
General Llenievitch's telegram seems
to confirm the report that negotiations
lor an armistice are not proceeding De
tween the Russian and Japanese com
manders.
Grand Duke Alexis, who is going
abroad soon, and Vice-Admiral Chou
kln. commander of the Black Sea fleet.
who It is thought will succeed Admiral
Avellan as head of the Admiralty De
nartment. also were received by the
Emperor at Peterhof yesterday. Ad
miral Choukin reported on the condi
tion of the Black Sea fleet, and also
offered suggestions for the naval pro
gramme, which Is under consideration.
It Is said that the Emperor is contem
plating the appointment of a commls
slon headed by Vice-Admiral Birileff. to
formulate a programme in the light of
lessons taught by Russian naval devel
opment In the past quarter of a cen
tury, and the experience of other na
tlons.
pression here continues strong that Japan
only with great reluctance caul a. oe in
duced to forego the advantages of her
strategic position, which, despite the tone
of the official advices from the front, is
regarded as being altogether favorable for .
Field Marshal Oyama. and agree 10 a
suspension of hostilities for at least six
weeks, during which time tnousanas ox.
reinforcements would reach General
Linievitch, and Vladivostok would be
strengthened with munitions and supplies
to withstand a sieee. inaeea, 11 is sug
gested that Japan deliberately planned to
postpone the meeting long enough to give
Oyama. a chance to administer to the Rus
sians a fresh deieat on lana. in oroer to
rob the war party In Russia of Its last
card and facilitate acquiescence In hor
terms.
Considering the situation, therefore.
President Roosevelt's triumph will be all
the greater if he could now succeed in
crowning his work by an agreement
which would at least prevent another
bloody battle pending the show of hands
at Washington.
At the British Embassy, the Associated
Press was Informed that Great Britain
had not offered Japan any advice on the
subject.
Brigadier-General Barry and his col
leagues, in view of the prospects of a
general engagement are hastening their
round of official visits in ordor to get to
the front in time to witness some of the
fighting. They bave already called, on
several of the Ministers. Tomorrow the
American officers will be received in audi
ence by the Emperor at Peterhof.
SUSPICIOUS OP JOHN BULL
Russian Papers Accused of Seeking
to Hasten Russia's Defeat.
ST. PETERSBURG. June 20. The Novoe
Yrcrnva today printed a dispatch from
London, in which its correspondent de
clared ho was In possession of Informa
tlon to the effect that the British were
advising Japan against the conclusion of
an armistice.
"Russia." the dispatch adds, "is not
considered to be sufficiently weakened.
Great Britain hopes "that Field Marshal
Oyama will succeed In destroying Gen
eral Llnlevltch's army, and thus relieve
her of the nightmare that the army may
later be shifted to the borders of Afghan
istan for operations against India."
The radical Nasha Shlsn asserts that
"the phantom of financial exhaustion
hanging over Russia" Is really the great
est friend of peace, and draws a harrow
ing picture of 90 per cent of the empire's
population living as their forefathers did
in the I6th century, groaning under the
constantly Increasing debts .piled up by
militarism and the adventures of the
autocracy which clever bookkeeping no
longer can conceal.
"Russia," the Xovoe Vremya continues.
"Is reaching the end of her ability to bor
row for the purpose of prosecuting the
war. Here is the real secret, of tlie hopo
of peace. Russia's poverty must declda
the Issue when the plenipotentiaries
meet
LONDON. June 20. While undoubtedly
the people of England would like to see
a general battle In Manchuria before an
armistice is declared, since it is felt cer
tain that Field Marshal Oyama would
score another victory, the Associated
Press is assured that the British gov
ernmcnt has not given Japan any advice
as to what course to pursue, as alleged
by the Novoo Vremya, of St Petersburg.
In fact, the government has done noth
ing beyond supporting President Roose
velt's effort to secure the earliest meet
ing of the peace plenipotentiaries and
the submission by Japan of terms likely
to be acceptable to Russia. With over
whelming forces at his command. It Is
felt In military circles that Oyama is in
a position to deliver a most crushing de
feat to General Linievitch.
The recent movements of British cruis
ers In the Far East are taken to mean
that the Admiralty has again undertaken
to notify the Russian cruisers of Foreign
Minister Lamsdorffs Instructions that
there is to be no further sinking of neu
tral ships. At any rate, shipowners are
much relieved.
STRIKE IS BREAKING UP
TEAMSTERS TRY TO 3 LAKE
TERMS WITH EMPLOYERS.
Express Companies Test Fidelity of
Employes to Union and It
Fails Grand Jury's Work.
CHICAGO, June 20. Practically no
progress was made today toward
settlement of the teamsters -strike.
The committee appointed last night by
the teamsters Joint council today dlvi J
ed Itself Into subcommittees, .all of
which made calls on different employ
ers trying to arrange some method of
ending the difficult. Their work was
not completed tonight and uo definite
agreement with the employers nas
been reached." The subcommittees will
continue their missionary work, tomor-
rov.
On many sldos there are indications
that the end of the trlke is at hand.
The express companies for the first
time- since the strike commenced, re
sumed deliveries of products to the
commission houses, and the union
teamsters employed by these commls
slon houses, who had all along threat
ened to strike If such deliveries were
made with nonunion 'drivers or accept
ed by the commission men. offered no
objection. Several business houses re
ported tnat individual teamsters had
applied to them for their old posi
tions, and a few of them have been
reinstated. There has, however, been
no official action on either side which
seems to foreshadow the calling off of
the strike.
The grand jury today summoned Ar
thur Meeker and T. J. Conners. high of
ficials of Armour & Co.. andv&S-d them
questions concerning the alleged pay
ment of money to labor leaders during
the stockyards strlko of last Summer.
Fifteen other prominent employes
and union men also were subpenacd as
a result of testimony given In the
forenoon by John Drlscoll, who showed
cancelled checks to prove that he had
disbursed large sums of money sup
plied by employers.
At a meeting of the central committee
ot the retail dealers and market men, held
tonlgt. It was decided to inform the strik
ing teamsters that the aid heretofore ex
tended to them would be withdrawn. The
grocers. and market men have declined
during the strike to receive goods from
the houses against which a boycott has
been ordered, but they now declaro they
have proof that the families ot -strikers
are reccK'lng goods from boycotted stores.
It was decided that if the strike Is not
settled by June 25, It will be Ignored by
the grocers.

PHILADELPHIA, June 3L One of the
mo?! sensational cases of forgery tnat
has ever been brought to light in finas
clal circles of this city was disclosed
today, when it was announced that cer
tlficates calling for small numbers of
shares of stock had been fraudulently
raised to hundreds of shares, causing s
loss to certain bondholders and trust com
panies of this city of from J750.0M to
CLOM.O00.
The forger' Involves the name of
Benjamin H. Gaskill, who went to his
grave four weeks ago. Gaskill was the
sole member of the banking and broker
age concern known as Benjamin H. Gas-
kill & Co. He had offices In the financial
district and his credit was considered
gilt-edged. Gaskill, at the time of his
death, was believed to be worth about
J500.005. He left no will and administra
tors began to close his business.
A patron of the firm, whose name is
.not given, bought from the estate ira
shares of Philadelphia Traction stock and
100 shares of stock of the United States
Steel Corporation. He turned his account
over to E. C. Miller &. Co., which firm
sent the Traction stock to the Philadel
phia Traction Company's office to have
tho transfer recorded. The certificate did
not agree with the company's books and
an investigation showed that the certifi
cate had been raised from six shares to
100. The discovery was reported to E. C
Miller & Co., which firm Immediately no
tified the Stock Exchange, of which Gas
kill was a member, which In turn sent
out notices to its members riot to receive
stock certificates from the Gaskill estate.
Raising Stock His Business.
A further Investigation brought to light
a surprising state of affairs. It was
found that Gaskill had credited himself
In his own books with 6X0 shares of Phila
delphia Traction stock, valued at ap
proximately JGOO.OO). while the Traction
Company's books showed he had only 403
shares. It was also discovered that he
had raised stock certificates of the
United Railways of New Jersey from two
to SCO and certificates of tho Frankfort &
Southwark Street Railway Company, of
this city, from two to 20. The latter stock
is worth J 430 a share.
Gaskill kept two Accounts, one record
lng the transactions of his customers.
which was correct, and another giving his
own transactions. His books showed that
he was losing from 31S.CO0 to $3).0V) a. year
In his business. His method of operation
was to obtain certificates of gilt-edged
securities calling for one, two, three or
some other small number of shares, raise
the figures and give them as security for
large loans.
Loss May Reach S ,1,000, 000.
At least six banks and trust companies
of the city -admit holding fraudulent se
curities for large loans. Not one of the
Institutions will make public tho amount
of money It advanced, but a financier
who has been making an Investigation
said tonight that the amount of money
loaned on the raised certificates will ag
gregate between J750.OCO and H.0M.CO0. It
is believed very little will be recovered
from the estate.
Gaskill was about 41 years of age when
he died, and was a high liver. He was
a member of the Manufacturers' and other
clubs and was well and favorably known.
The administrators of the estate. Lincoln
L. Eyre and George M. Wagner, have
retained John G. Johnson to .protect the
interests of the estate. Gaskill left
wife, to whom the Stock Exchange a few
days ago paid $5000 as life insurance. His.
seat on tne biocK uccnange is valued at
HiO.OOO.
