SALEM'S FASTEST Corner Commercial and McEVOY management of the roads propose in writing T what terms of settlement would be acceptable. This was flatly refused. Another was a proposition that cer tain increase in the salaries of the men, but much smaller than the amount the strikers first demanded and permission for a paid agent of the union to work among the men on the system. This was also turned down, and the strike officials were notified that negotiations would only be car ried on with the men as individuals. The railroad claim to have filled nearly all of the positions made vacant by the strikers, and therefore can take their pick of the men who desire to be reinstated. President Perham of the Order of Railway Telegraphers in a bulletin is sued tonight Bays because of the com pany's ultimatum having passed the general situation is more favorable than at any time during the" strike.

AGREES TO THREE OF ARTICLES Japan Must Hereafter Have Prepond : erating Influence in Corea , and Russia None. ' Neither Nation Shall Occupy Manchur ia, but the Principle of the Open Door Shall Be Maintained China to Control Railroad from Harbin South. PORTSMOUTH, Aug. 14. Although rapid progress has been made with the peace negotiations today, three of the twelve articles which constitute the Japanese conditions of peace having been agreed to by Witte, and Baron Rosen, neither of the two articles to which Witte in his reply returned an absolute negative, has been reached. The -crisis, therefore, is still to come. It may be reached soon, as the cession of Sakhalin comes fifth in list. Three "articles found" as they are officially designated in the brief communica tions authorized to be given to! press, disposed of today, are in eubstanee: First, Russia's recognition of Japan's " jreponderating influence" and spec ial position in Corea, which Russia henceforth agrees shall be outside her sphere of influence, Japan binding her self to recognize the suzerainty of the reigning family but with. the right to give advice and assistance to improve the- civil administration of the empire. Second, the mutual obligation to evacuate Manchuria, each to surrender all special privileges in that province, and the mutual obligation to respect the "territorial integrity " of China and to maintain the principle of j equal rights to all nations in that province (the open door). Third, cession' to China of Chinese Eastern railway from Harbin south ward. ' I There has never been any question about the acceptance on the part of M. Witte of these articles, the first two covering in more emphatic form the contention of Japan in the diplomatic struggle which preceded hostilities. In the discussion of the second arti cle (covering the evacuation of -Manchuria) it was positively stated; that Russia won a victory. Kamura, so it is declared, wanted to limit to Russia the obligation to evacuate Manchuria and to' surrender special provisions in, that province, whereas Witte contended that the obligation for evacuation by troops should take place concurrently. Witte is said to have contended that he is defending not only the interests of Russia, but those of all neutral pow ers. Doth sessions of the congress today are described as "amicable." . There, were several slight jars, but none of them serious. The plenipotentiaries are showing admirable tempers. ' PLAGUii CONDITION BETTER. Apparently Fewer New Cases of Yellow Tever in New Orleans Twelve 'More Deaths. NEW ORLEANS, Aug. II. The fol lowing is the official report up to 6 p. ra.: New cases, 5; total, 1018. Deaths, 12; total, 166. New.subfoei, 8; total 210. Cases under treatment, 456. The figures for the day are consid ered surprisingly small, considering that nineteen of the cases reported today really belonged to yesterday's list, hot having been reported at the closing of Sunday's report. Monday has usually been a heavy (lay for new cases on account of the hold-overs from Sunday and if the num ber of new cases for the next few days continues small then it can be said. that the situation is really improving. Of the new foci, four are up town and four below Canal street. Surgeon White's forces went to work today on a re-organization plan, all fumigating and screening being done from district headquarters instead of central headquarters as heretofore. HAS EAR OF PRESIDENT. Jap Who Says He Is Man of Leisure ; Has Much to Talk About With Roosevelt. OYSTER BAY, Aug. 14 Baron Ka neko, who on a previous trip to Oyster Bay, described himself as a "Japanese of leisure sojourning in America be cause he liked this country, was the only ealler on President Roosevelt to day. This is the third visit Kaneko has made to Sagamore Hill within a few weeks, and he saw the president fre quently in Washington during the early summer. Neither he nor President Roosevelt would discuss the nature of his call, although Kaneko insisted - it bad nothing to do with pending peace negotiations. ; - IN INTEREST OF JEWS. ; Prominent American Descendants of That Race Have Talk With Rus sian iflenipotentiaries. .PORTSMOrTH, Aug. 14. A free ex change of views on the condition and treatment ot jews in ltussia was new tonight in conference between M. Witte. Baron Rosen and Oser.r Strauss, Jacob II. Schiff, Isaac ' N. SeHjrr.aa , r.nd Adolph Lcwisohn, f.Jsew York, and Adolph Kraus, of Chicago. The state ment is made by the delegation call ing on the Russian- plenipotentiaries, that nothing tangible resulted but that future benefit is looked for. The finan cial condition of Russia was not men tioned in the discussion and was not sugested as a topic for discussion, ac cording to Kraus. ' ARMISTICE NOW EXISTS. Understanding Without an Agreement There Will Be No More Fighting Until Peace Conference Ends. PORTSMOUTH Aug. 14. It seems to b taken for granted among attaches of both the Japanese and the Russian missions that there will be no general battld in Manchuria while peace nego tiations are on. Oyama is prepared to strike the moment negotiations fail and there may be more or less outpost en gagement while troops are getting in position, but it is admitted that if either Oyama of Linevitch deliberately brings on a general engagement which might eost 50,000 orl(X),000 lives, his country will be accused of Bad faith, in the negotiations and will nevtably lose prestige isT "the eyes of the world. In the larger sense, therefore, it can be said that an armistice already exists in Manchuria. IS BEADY FOR FIGHT. Traffic Manager of Harriman Lines Says Company Will Not Accept the Washington Commission's Bates. SPOKANE, Aug. 14. Trouble be tween the state railway commission and the Harriman lines has arisen at the very outset of- the "commission's work.

DARKNESS SAVED FIVE OTHERS Crowd Was Surprised While Besting on River Bank a Short Distance . From Eola, Three Boys Taken Sunday Near Salem, ' One 'at Dallas Yesterday and. One Near Eola Last Night Six .Were at McCoy Yesterday but Lost Bearings. Five more escaped reform school boys have been captured, three having been taken into custody Sunday and two yesterday. Fred Thielsen and Sam Young were the captors of one of the boys and only the darkness and dense timber prevented them from securing two or three more. The three taken Sunday were found in the timber south of Salem. One was taken yesterday at Dallas and the fifth was captured near Eola aat night. : Thielsen and Young were enjoying a ride in their canoe last evening and were near the Fawk farm about a mile below Eola when tey were hailed from the shore by Walter Lyon, who was passing in a buggy. When they reached the shore -Lyon informed them that he had seen a number of reform school boys in the brush.

They made, a rush into the crowd, and called upon ;the boys to surrender,but the only response was " scattering of the much-wanted boys. When the men started in pursuit they met a volley of rocks, some of which came too-close to be either comfortable or safe. One huge missile grazed Young's hat. AH the boys except one escaped in the darkness, and the one, lelng cornered, sprang into the river and attempted to swim across. He was overtaken by the men in the canoe and was brought to Salem aud lodged in tho county jail for safe keeping over night. The boy's name was not learned. lie is about 14 years old and a bright fellow. That he is "game" is shown by the" effort 'he put forth, and the Vigor with which he denounced his comrades for- not coming to his rescue when captured. From the boy who was taken it was learned that he and his companions reached a place near McCoy yesterday but' lost fheir learings and wandered back to Salem, thinking that they were going to Oregon City. Reform school officials are confident that they will cap ture tne rest of the boys today. W. K. AXLEN DEAD. NBWBU(14 Or., Aug. 14Willim K.
