Russia, on Easter Sunday and the days following it. , The situation in retard to the Klsh t inert matter is a delicate one for the Government of the I'nited States to " handle. In dealing with the subject Vf the utmost tact will be- used by the f ' officers of this government, and It is ' not likely that the result of today s meet Ins; will be known for several days. . It is understood from the highest au- thority thai friction between this coun try and Russia will be avoided If It , . is possible. Many resolutions are In V the hands of Secretary Hay, having - - been forwarded by prominent men t as .the result of mass meetings held throughout the country. All these res- " olutlons will be plsced before the Pres- ident today for his perusal. Count ,1 Casslnl. the Russian ambassador, will . probably call on the. President Monday ' In connection with the affair. The other matter of importance being .' ' heard today is the poatoffice fraud scan dal. It 1s well known tha.t Mr. Roose- velt.

In , the press - 'of Russia " that that country's position should be more thoroughly understood In America Printed articles, were clr- - tflated calling attention to the man ,v ier in' which the press of the United States persistently prints one-sided 'torie of-all Russia's actions, whether It be of , the Siberian prisons, the Man i' "churls policy or the Klshineff massa 1 crea.

"The strained relations existing be tween the Russians and Jews, of Bes sarabia were made worse by the fact of finding in an outlying village a murdered Christian boy.

He showed the state commissioners present the plans of the 8t. Louis min ing building, and suggested to them that they select their location for an Ore gon exhibit at once. He also stated that the site for this commonwealth's building should be picked out by some one on the grounds, as oftentimes the oxaot. location was lost sight of or .for gotten by the Fair officials if not at tended to In person.

"Our exhibit should be new and unique, and stand on Its own merits. "The carbonates, magnetites, frank Unites, llmonltes and chromltes of Iron ores will attract great attention from the great iron workers of the world, and these alone are worth more for exhibl tlon than all our gold ores.

DESERTERS BEEN THE FOOTPADS Police Looking For Men Army and Who Are Suspected of Having Held Up People on the Macadam Road. Six deserter! from the United Statea Army are being sought persistently by the Portland police and detectives, as sisted by officers and men from the Vancouver barracks. It is thought td be a certainty that they are responsible for the sensational hold-up on the Ma cadam road Thursday night, and for the recent street car robberies. Although the officers of the law. both' the police Rpd jreuru La r ajmx j.afjfie..po.ln, blank to give one whit of Information, The Journal ascertained that a city de tective went to Vancouver Barracks yes terday and that he spent a large portion of the day -there looscmg over photo graphs and that six men were spotted who answer the descriptions furnished by victims of the desperate men who have been, operating within this city for several weekn. Investigation developed the fact that every one of those selected by the de tective as tallying with the descrip tions at Vancouver Barracxs have de serted the army, and have been sought for three weeks or more by army offi cers. Thought to be Here. Although the six deserters from the army have been hunted relentlessly by the government.. aided by the local po lice, not a glimpse of them has been caught by any officer. They, have been seen by others, however, including a representative of The Journal, who states that In his belief he sat near them one day this week In a local res taurant. They were assembled around the table, five of theirr. 'Ftrej- wwilts- cussing In very low tones. A tall man. or. rough- appearance, paid for .Ihelr meals at the cashier': desk.

Five men . and two women became their vic tims. Cheap But Daring. The six deserters are thought by the officers to have been responsibly for the many daring crimes committed within the city's boundaries during the past month. Among their most sensational "Jobs" was the "stick-up" of a Van couver car. city-bound, on the Portland Railway Company's line three weeks ago. That trick Is thought to have been their first, although It was thought, and still Is. that the three selected from the sextette have had previous experi ence elsewhere.
