Having sailed from the mouth of the

ental liner Aragonla U due to reach To-
Kohama today, as th trip across th
Pacific is usually mad In 14 or IT
days. The local officials of th . Iln
hav hot yet been apprised of htor ar
rival, but there Is no doubt expressed
that ah will reach her destination in
safety. In fact, if she is not heard from
for several days It Is hardly probable
that her whereabouts will cause any
great amount of concern, for th reason
that her captain received sealed instruc
tions to lake a circuitous rout around
th war son. If th instructions are
followed out it is possible that th voy
age will be mora than ordinarily pro
longed. 1 - ' "
Those Interested in th vessel ana ner
cargo do not believe that ah will be
molested on account of th recant naval
victories to th Japanese arms. They
are of the opinion that Russia has re
tired from th business of seising
merchantmen and there is no longer
cause for apprehension on that score.
Th Aragonla la carrying on of tn
most valuable cargoes that naa left thla
port for several months past It con
sists principally of flour, a big portion
of which is for Japanese ports, and
therefor is contraband of war, aooord-
Ing to th Russian idea. Should she be

tant undertaking. No definite plan of
action had been formulated in advance
of today's meeting, but it is believed

ment to th construction of the road

Th committee consists of Henry "Hahn,

development subsequent to that confer

Whether such use can be mad appear
