THE MORNING- OEEGONIAN, MONDAY, AUGUST Y, 1905. LID IT NEWPORT Russian Plenipotentiaries Will Finish Journey by Rail. JAPANESE .STAY .ON DOLPHIN Arrival Was Delayed at Rhode Island Port for Some Time on Account of. the Thick Weather Outside. NEWPORT. R. L, Aug. 6. Instead of arriving at Portsmouth on Monday, the vessels placed at the disposal of the Rus sian and Japanese peace delegations will probably not reach that city before Tues day morning. The ships arrived off New port late this afternoon, and the convert ed yacht Mayflower, with M. "Witte and Baron Rosen, came into port. After a stay of nearly five hours, M. Witte left for Boston on a special train at 10 P. M. He decided to remain in that city untjl tomorrow night, and proceed to Ports mouth by ralL Commander Wlnslow, of the Mayflower, the flagship of the squadron, Issued in structions tonight to defer sailing until tomorrow. The vessels will, therefore, be unable to reach their destination be fore Monday night or Tuesday morning, and it is said the envoys will be formally received some time during Tuesday. At 1 o'clock this morning the squadron encountered a dense fog, and anchored two miles off New London. The fog did not lift until 1 P. M. today, when Com mander Wlnslow signaled, "Assemble off Newport." Newport was reached about 5 P. M The Mayflower entered the harbor, and M. WItte and Baron Rosen, accompanied by Commander Wlnslow and two secret service oiflcers, went ashore. This mod ification of the original plan was decided upon at the luncheon at Oyster Bay on Friday, when M. WItte confessed to the President that he was not a good sailor and preferred to make at least half the trip to Portsmouth by rail. 'The Presi dent readily assented to a change, and gave orders that a private car be held in waiting in Newport this afternoon. The fog delayed the arrival of the squadron and prevented the Russians from catching a train which would take them to Portsmouth tonight- It was eventually decided to proceed to Boston and go to Portsmouth tomorrow. Commander Wlnslow signaled the dispatch-boat Dolphin, which has the Japa nese envoys on board, and the convoy Galveston to enter Newport and leave for Portsmouth tomorrow. The vessels came into the harbor shortly after 7 o'clock and anchored for the night. The squad ron will probably get under way early tomorrow. The present plan is to steam slowly and reach Portsmouth Monday night or Tuesday morning. When M. WItte reaches that city he will go on board the Mayflower, and will be formally received by Rear-Admiral Mead, Com mandant of the navy-yard. The trip from Oyster Bay to Newport was an uneventful one. After breakfast this morning. Third Assistant Secretary of State Pelrce, who Is on the convoy, prepared messages of greeting for M. Witte and Baron Koruraa, which Captain Culler, of-the Galveston, sent by wireless telegraph to the Mayflower and Dolphin. Replies came later that both missions had a comfortable night and were en Joying the trip thoroughly. As the Mayflower got under way this afternoon, M. Witte, who stood on the bridge with Commander Wlnslow, doffed his hat to the Galveston and waved a hearty greeting. After dining at Com mander Wlnslow's cottage tonight he was accompanied to the station by that officer. VIEWED BY A CURIOUS CROWD M. Witte Much Amused by Experi ence at Newport. NEWPORT, R. I., Aug. 6. The convert ed yacht Mayflower, with M. Witte and Baron Rosen on board, arrived here late this afternoon, and arrangements were made for M. Witte to continue the jour ney to Portsmouth, N. H.. by train. The Mayflower was expected here about 11 A. M . but was delayed by the thick weather. The dispatch-boat Dolphin, which is conveying the Japanese representatives from Oyster Bay to Portsmouth, an chored oft Brenton's Reef lightship, but afterward came into the harbor. When the fog whyifcghung over the bay all day lifted, iJKif tor 3 o'clock this afternoon, CapMKcnon, of the Price's Neck LifesavMKtlon, sighted both the Mayflower irmBic Dolphin at anchor to the eastward of Brenton's Reef lightship. At 5:80 the Mayflower came to Newport and anchored at the torpedo sta tion, at the same time displaying the Russian flag at the fore. Soon afterward. M Witte, Baron Rosen, two secret service men and Commander Cameron McR. Wlnslow entered a steam launch and were landed at the wharf at the station. The party was met by Rear-Admiral French E. Chadwjck. Mrs. Wlnslow and H. 0. Havemeyer. Jr.. a brother-in-law of Commander Wlnslow. Mr. Havemeyer conducted M. Witte, Baron Rosen and Rear-Admiral Chadwlck to an automobile. After a spin about the city, the party called on Mrs. Chadwlck at her cottage, and then proceeded to Commander Wlnslow's cottage for sup per. The dispatch-boat Dolphin remained off Brenton's Reef lightship, and the Japa nese representatives did not come ashore. Both vessels encountered a thick fog on the run from Oyster Bay. They were obliged to anchor off Block Island and again outside Brenton's Reef lightship. The Mayflower and Dolphin were con voyed by the cruiser Galveston. After supper. M. WItte and Commander Wlnslow went to a telegraph station, and the former filed a number of dispatches. A crowd of citizens, who recognized the distinguished Russian, assombled outside the office. M. Witte was much amused when he saw the curious ones. M. Witte and Baron Rosen planned to leave on a special parlor car attached to the regular 5:30 train for Boston. SCENE OF PEACE CONFERENCE Government Has Spared No Pains In Fitting Up Building. PORTSMOUTH. N. H.. Aug. 6.-After a day of activity In the jiavy-yard, the fin ishing touches in preparation for the peace conference were made late this afternoon, and everything is now in readi ness both on the inside and the outside Of the large new naval stores building, where the plenipotentiaries are to be re ceived, and where they are to hold the dally sessions thereafter. The second floor of the building is to be occupied by the peace missions. The conference-room is in the center of the building, over the main entrance.

The busi ness section of the city is gay with bust ing, the National colors prevailing in the decorative scheme. Throngs of visitors from the surrounding cities and towns to day augmented the mans' strangers who have flocked to the city. Every available room in the hotel where the missions are to be quartered has been taken. The city is filled with a small array of newspaper correspondents, rep resenting, in addition to the press associa tions and the groat dallies of the United States, Journals in Europe and Japan. The news that M. Witte had abandoned his trip by water and was to arrive here by train was the only development of in terest during the day. The arrangements were made whereby Herbert D. Pelrce. son of Third Assistant Secretary of State Pelrce, will meet the Russian plenipoten tiaries at the railroad station and will convey them to the Hotel Wcntworth in an automobile. Young Mr. Pelrce speaks Russian fluently. AH arrangements foe tomorrow's exer cises, including the breakfast at the navy yard and tlie extension of the hospitality of the state and Nation at the Ports mouth Courthouse have been completed.

PETERSBURG. Aug. 7. (1:25 A. M.) The morning newspapers appear to be tiring of commenting blindly on the possibilities of the Portsmouth peace con ference, but the movements of M. Witte and the others are followed closely and with interest by the people In the dally paper and they are awaiting actual news of the negotiations with anxiety. The Novoe remya declares that Rus sia's Internal troubles will be ended with the introduction of a representative gov ernment. Russia. It says, wishes peace, but peace Is necessary to Japan.

STRIKEBREAKERS SENT OUT President of Operators Confident These 3Ien Were Hired Under False Representations and Will Not Take Places. ST. PAUL. Minn.. Aug. C There con tinues to be a wide variance botween the official statements given out by the con tending sides .in the strike of the Order of Railway Telegraphers against the Northern Pacific and Great Northern roads. Officials of the roads claim that the strike is practically at an end. and that 12 hours more will see its finish; that strikers are applying for their old posi tions, and that new men are being con stantly employed ; that regular trains are on schedule time, and freight la being moved promptly. On the other hand. President H. B. Perham said to the Associated Press to night that the situation, as reported to him, is more favorable to the operators than it has been at any stage of the strike, and that he is confident of victory. He admitted that the company was send ing strikebreakers West, but not in such large numbers as the companies claimed. These men, he averred, wore being hired under false pretenses, and that as soon as they became cognizant of the true state of affairs, the majority of them would quit work and Join the strikers. Mr. Perham exhibited reports from va rious chairmen in the Western divisions showing that perishable freight was being refused. 'and that in many casse the yards were bjocked. and little or no freight was being moved. One report stated that the Anetta line of the Great Northern, in North Dakota, was locked up, and that only one freight train had been run since the strike began. Only one night office was said to be open between Minot and Willlston. N. D., on the Great Northern. At the union depot. It was reported that tne North Coast Limited, on the Northern Pacific, was seven hours late, while the Twin City Express, on the same road, ar rived two hours late. The Great North ern Coast train arrived on time this after noon, but the train due at 16:40 had not been reported, the depot people stating that they had no wires working, further west than Minneapolis. Trains on the Winnipeg division of both roads, as well as local trains, were re ported moving on practically schedule time. VACANT PLACES ARE FILLED Great Northern Superintendent Feels Confident of Victory. ST. PAUL, Aug. 6. At 6 o'clock tonight General Superintendent Stedc, of the Great Northern, Issued the following etatement: "Vacant positions are being rapidly filled on all divisions. These posts now represent a very small percentage of the total number and arrangements have been made to fill all those remaining with, competent men. The new men will be checked In as soon as transfers can be made by our auditors. "Traffic is moving under absolutely nor mal condition? and all the usual reports) are being handled to headquarters over the company's own wires. All passenger trains are making schedule time or better and all freight Is being promptly moved. There Is no accumulation of cars at any of the terminals. "Conditions continue to improve and the general break In rtrike ranks on the Idaho division is being followed, to a oamewhat smaller extent, by like breaks on several other divisions. "Applications for work are pouring in at both the St. Paul and the Eastern re cruiting offices. "Many striking operators now recognize that the strike was lost during the first 12 hpurs. The mon are now anxious to have their old position? back." Great Northern Trains on Time. SPOKANE. Aug. 6. Alt Great Northern trains are on time today, while the North ern Pacific trains, with the exceptions of three, are on regular schedule time. The late trains are from one to four hours behind schedule. The striking telegraphers state that less than 90 places out of over 100 have been filled, and their fitateraont Is partially borne out by the fact that between Spo kane and Ellcnsburg few offices are open for telegraph business. Superintendent Beamor, of the Northern Pacific, how ever, states that four of his old operators and 12 new men from the East aro at the keys along the line and that, he has 130 new men coming from the East. At Connell yesterday a nonunion op erator was compelled to leave town by a mob of SO strike sympathizers. The Dep uty Sheriff on guard there also found his Job too unpleasant and quit.

PROUD OF HER TWO BOYS Mrs. Taggart Says She Is Fighting for Her Reputation. WOOSTER, O.. Aug. 6. (Special.) Grace Violet Taggart, the belle of more than one garrison and the defendant In a rather blistering divorce action, in an interview this afternoon, not only re vealed herself as a woman of courage and purpose, but as the loyal mother of two of the finest boys that ever stepped Into knickerbockers. "Do you wish to make any statement which might correct any false impressions from your standpoint?" she was asked. "Yes. there is one thing that I wish to say. It is for the sake of my little boys that I have come to Wooster to fight a case which Involves, not only my honor, but the reputation of my children and to vindicate myself against the false charges," she replied. "Do you feel the strain of the court room proceedings?' was asked. "Yes, I do feel the strain very jnuch. It is very trying and annoying, ut I know that the truth and justice will prevail ultimately. I am bearing up with all the fortitude I possess." "Is there any reason why the Army woman should be depicted as less dis creet than her sisters in civil lifer Her eyes blazed with resentment. It was an Impertinent question, but she forgave it after a few moments of reflection. Then she said slowly and distinctly; "The Army life of a woman is not like the life, perhaps, of a woman of the small community like this. But ladles there demean themselves with the same discretion and propriety that they do elsewhere. This parade of misconduct. Improperly charged against the ladles, Is grossly exaggerated in this case." "After the cas is decided what are your plans for the 'future?" was asked. "I hope to locate myself conveniently." said Mrs. Taggart, "and derate myself to the care and education of mjv boys. I love the little fellows. They never in their lives called me 'maw' or 'mamma. It has always been 'mother.' I consider myself the proudest woman In the world to be the mother of these children. When the boys come to see me. the cloud of unpleasantness which envelops me in the courtroom falls away." "Is It true that an effort was made to effect a reconciliation?" "No, not recently. While I was living in California, even after the suit was brought, such an effort was made. Ow ing to the treatment I had received and the false accusations' made against me I declined any reconciliation except on terms that I prescribed." NOT TO CHOOSE COADJUTOR Bishop Morris Will Not Call a Spe cial Convention. Reports were rife yesterday that it was the intention of Rt. Rev. B. Wlstar Morris, bkshop of the Episcopal Church of Oregon, to call a special convention of his diocese soon. for the purpose of choosing a bishop coadjutor, but Bishop Morris denied that he had in mind any such idea. He has the power to do so at any time upon 60 days' notice, but he prefers to let next year's convention deal with the situation. "I have nothing to say on the subject for publication, however," said Bishop Morris yesterday. "I am not going- to meddle with the question, and it has gone to sleep, I hope."

Bradbury, an expert swimmer, and su perintendent of the state bathhouse, at Nantaskel Beach, Is another warning against too great venturesomeness In struggling with breakers. The two who ventured out together were well aware that the conditions were hazard ous, although they did not estimate tho "hazard at Its full strength. Both bravely breasted the heavy breakers and defied the treacherous undertow. When they discovered that they had dared too much, they attempted to re turn, but one never got back to the beach, and the one who did return did not know when his companion's strength failed and ho was sucked under. Wo do not suppose this will be the last case of the kind. Strong sw.lm mers aro so confident of their power that they take chances with an unwise daring. Reports Robbery to Police. Roy F.
