CONFERENCE OF DIPLOMATS Von Sternberg Meets President, Sec retary Hoot and Assistant Bacon at the Whito House to Settle the Entire Matter. WASHINGTON. "Marc 30. With a vlw to bring;!?! to a close the jrosstp connected with tha reported disapproval In Berlin of th appointment of lr. Da vid Jayn Hill a. Ambassador, and ter minating the Incident. Baron von Stern berg, the German Ambassador, called at the White House today by appointment to ace VreaMent Roosevelt and Secre tary Root. Assistant Secretary Bacon val also present. . At the conclusion of the conference the following statement was sTtvrn out: "In addition to the communication al ready made public from tho Foieign Of fice, the German Ambassador has also conveyed to the American Government the assurances of the Kmperor that there hns never been any ehanpe In his atti tude toward Mr. Hill, and his cordal wllllnes to welcome Mr. Hill to Ber lin. The Kmperor's favorable opinion of Mr. Hill was communicated to the Wash ington Administration Inst November, and his attitude has never changed since.

STILL TRIFLING WITH LAW nurf'v lawyers Again Stare Off the Trial With Technicalltties. SAN FRANCISCO, March 30. With the proollnga against him In one court ef fectually Mucked for the tlm being. Abraham Ruef today bopan the name tac tic In another court and temporarily checked tha prosecution with a counter move, when tha attempt waa made to place him on trial immediately upon an against him. The prosecution thia morn InK endeavored ta put Ruef on trial In Judge Dunnes department on one of tha Indictments In the so-called Parkside trolley franchise cases. Ruef on Saturday filed a lengthy affi davit, having for Its purpose the disqual ification of Judge Dunne to preside at the trial. As If Judge Dunne had anticipated such a move, when court convened this morning. Judge Maurice T. Dooling, of San Benito, who sat for Judge Dunne In the Tevls-Bulletln libel trial, took the bench. Henry Ach. of counsel for Ruef. de manded a separate trial for Ruef, who' was Jointly Indicted with W. I. Brobeck. George H. Umbsen and Joseph tireen, prominent real estate men. This was granted. Mr. Ach then moved that the case be transferred to some other de partment of the Superior Court, and both ha and his associate-. Frank J. Murphy, argued long against Judge Dooling's right to try the case. This motion was denied, and the de fense then gave notice that affidavits setting forth the personal disqualification of Judge Dooling would be prepared, and the case was continued until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, when they will be presented In court. Counsel for Ruef also announced that after the matter of a Jurijrc to preside at the trial was disposed of it would be followed by a series of motions asking; for the dis missal of the charges against Ruef on various grounds, among them being to "dismiss in furtherance of justice." A motion by Mr. Murphy that all proceedings ba set aside on the ground that the court had no Jurisdic tion, because Ruef was arraigned be fore bench warrants were Issued, and that the same had never been served upon him, arguing that he therefore was not properly In the custody of the court, and that the arraignment was void, was denied by Judge Dooling. The cases against Brobeck, Umbscn and Green were continued for 30 days. At 8 o'clock tomorrow night Judge Lawler will consider motions and argu ment by counsel for Tlrey L. Ford, whose third trial is to commence this week, why further proceedings against him should ba set aside. Riley Grannan, Plunger, Dying. SAN FRANCISCO, March 30.

Metiger fits glasses for 11.00, mil E ALASKA American Auto Going by Ship to Vladivostok. ROUTE ACROSS SIBERIA Hanson Recommends the Southern Road, Which Is TrhTersed by tho Convicts Not More Difficult to Cross Than Indiana. SEATTLE, Wash., March 30. The American car In the New York-Paris race, with George Schuster, driver, George Miller, machinist, and Captain Hans Hanson, arrived In the city .this ' morning, on board the steamer City of Puobla. Owing to advices regarding the condition of the trail between Valdez and Nome, the Alaska part of the trip will be abandoned, and the party will probably take the first ship from Seattle to Vladivostok, and go through Siberia by the southern route. Captain Hanson will have charge of the party on the Siberian trip. He re cently returned from that Country, where he was located for 10 years, and has crossed Siberia both by the north ern and southern routes. Captain Han son stated tonight that the final plans for the remainder of the trip will not be determined until advices are re ceived from New York, but he has rec ommended the southern route through Siberia, by way of Vladivostok, and ex pects to sail from Seattle on the next steamer. If the southern route Is adopted, the entire trip through Siberia will be over the convict military road. If the Northern Siberia route Is used. It will be necessary to cross over 100 'miles of country where there are no roads. If instructions are received to take the northern route, the party may be held In this city for an indefinite period, as the scheme to take the big automobiles over the Alaska route has been deemed to be Impossible, on account of Spring overflows, and In that event It would be necessary to take boat to Nome or direct to East Cape. Captajn Hansen said: I am of the opinion the southern route will be the decision of the Kw York of ficials, as the northern trip at this season would be almost ImDossible. Of course. I am willinr to believe we can make almost any kind of country after some of the ex periences we have had in Indiana, and. If we reached this city earlier, we would have tried the Alaska ajid Northern Siberia toute, bttt there was a clause In the articles sisned that, falling to reach Nome. Alaska. by April 15. we should have the privilege of taking the boat to Vladivostok and going by the southein route. I have spent 10 years in Siberia and do not believe there Is any more difficult country to cross than we have found in Indiana. Thl'ee months- ago arrangements were made to supply the machines with gasoline either by the northern or southern route, and we are ready to follow direc tions, from New York. The automobile and its crew were given a great ovation on their arrival. The wharf was crowded with automo bile enthusiasts, and at noon a big au tomobile parade was given. Tomorrow night the motorists will be the guests of honor at a banquet to be given by prominent automobilists of Seattle. The Corwln Is the first boat to sail from Seattle for the Bering Sea, and she leaves May 10. . SAN FRANCISCO March 30.
