Russian Government Issues a Commnnlqne on the Subject. ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 1-The Official Messenger to-day publishes a government communique reviewing at length the result of The Hague peace conference. After referring to the sympathetic reception the powers accorded the Czar's "magnanimous appeal for peace," It proceeds: "The results of the conference have fully come up to the expectations of the government. It has been found necessary for the conference to postpone a definite settlement of the complicated question of the suspension of armaments until fully elucidated by the different governments. Nevertheless, the lightening of military burdens is already admitted by unanimous resolution to be urgently desirable for all nations. On the other hand, the labors of the conference will doubtless exercise Influence in regulating the customs of war and stopping cruelties. The various states have agreed to use all their resources In favor of the maintenance of peace and the abolition of war. It is now an established fact that mediation, which hitherto depended on the good will of the states Interested, can henceforward be offered by a third power on Us own initiative." The communique concludes: "Without impairing the sovereign rights of the individual states, the results afford a fresh basis for International peace. The necessity for a solution of the Czar's proposals Is admitted by all the powers and the march of events will indicate the means to be employed In securing the welfare of mankind and the full attainment of the objects In view."

In which the birthday ball of the King was given, the minister says, la on the style of our own executive mansion, hut much lareer and more imposing. De ran of the massive walls and arches. which present an aspect of solid grandeur rather than beauty. The Interior of the palace abounds in riches of ornamentation, sufficient for a dozen abodes of kings, and In this respect must be a marked contrast to the White House, although the minister U much too polite to make comparisons. He speaks with great admiration of the beautiful tapestries and masterpieces of palntinsr hy the worm s greatest artists. which adorn the walk?, and the exquisite decoration cf the frescoed ceiling. The re ception was held in the throne room, the hnest apartment or tne palace.

CONDITIO' OF YOCXG CTJBAXS REPORTED TO BE VERY BAD. Several Officers of the Insurgent Army Accused of "Bleedlnc" Privates Ludlow's Action Criticised. HAVANA, Aug. 2. El Diario de la Marina publishes a letter to-day which says that the condition of the roune Cubans) has be come very bad. A large number were deprived of their parents by the war, and have teen left without support or guiding mnuence. Naturally In many cases they fall a prey to vice, as Is shown by the very large proportion of. young persons who figure as criminals in the police dockets. The writer of the letter suggests the establishment of homes for waifs. These he would have connected with suitable tracts of land, where the children could be brought up out of harm's way and could be taught to tUl the soil. The DpmnrraH of Manzanillo. says: "The proposition, emanating from the United States, to bring three million negroes for Cuban colonisation is beyond all right and reason. Naturally the United States desires to get rid of what Is an In cumbrance to the country, and It may be that under this pressure there are those who fancy It would be possible to make use of thoHe negroes in 'Amercanlzlng Cuba, It looks as if Americans had launched them selves here at a time when the Cubans are exhausted and unable to resist." El Diario de la Marina, citing these observations. asks Democracla what remedy It has to propose. The Patrla, while rejoicing at the suppres sion of the Iteconcentrado, deplores the fact that any excuse has been given to the Inter vening government for having recourse to the military law. and says that the civil law should be extended to protect individ uals against such treatment.

ROGER WILLIAMS'S HOME. A Landmark Which Rhode Island Is Slaking: a Late Effort to Save. Providence Journal. Although Tuesday night the Historical Society of this city took action in regard to marking suitably the location of Roger Williams's first abode within the present limits of this State, the time at best is rath er late, for the new layout of Roger Williams avenue has been accepted by the town of East Providence after considerable trouble and expense, extending over a Eeriod of two years; contract for the work as been made and work on the street is progressing at a rapid rate. To-day It is doubtful if the exact location of the cellar that has been so readily pointed out oy tne old residents of Rumford for years back could be determined with any degree of accuracy, for the carts and men at work on the new lajout are making sucn rapid changes that with cutting and filling the ground is constantly changing Its contour. Already the depression In tho hillside at the end of the stone wall near the road. where tradition says Williams's first house stood, has been leveled off and filled ud. and part of the stone wall that ran to the south edge of It has been torn down. This is unfortunate for the historical people, for the end of that wall was necessary to determine the location of the rite. The old laggtt house was built about 1690, and that wall was probably built at nearly the same time. The original Daggett wTho built the wall carried it north until he came to that hole, and, although his lajid continued right along, he . would not fill the hole In or carry the wall over it, for he held the spot as consecrated ground and ended his wall there with the north end as a southern marker; a sort of family marker; a monument to keep tne tradition alive in the Daggett family. So faithfully was mat traaition nanaed aown and the trust kept that through all the succeeding. gen erations that wall was never run over that spot, however much the male de scendants may have wished to run it. As generation succeeded generation the need or a separating line was felt, and a rail fence was built In continuance of the wall, but in such a way that It did not interfere with the trust. For a period of more than 230 years this one family has guarded a spot that should be of Interest to every thinking man or woman in the state. During these years other spots of lesser historical importance have been marked in a substantial, lasting manner, wnne tnis place nas been marked by tho crude, rough edge of a colonial stone wall. Some doubt has been expressed as to the authenticity of the belief and general impression that Roger Williams lo cated near the corner of Roger Williams and Wilson avenues, nut there seems no reasonable and plausible excuse for such a doubt, for the tradition has come down through the generations as surely and truly as a musket would be handed from father to son.

DYNAMITING RENEWED

AXOTHEH ATTEMPT TO BLOW IT A CLEVELAND STREET CAR. Cblef Arthur Not Afraid of the Boycott Cornerstone Laylnff at Chicago May lie Delayed by a Strike. CLEVELAND, O.. Aug. 3.-The withdrawal of several companies of troops was followed, to-night, by another dynamiting outrage, but fortunately nobody was hurt. The explosion occurred under a Jenningsavenue car, on which there were six passengers. It smashed the flange .of one of the wheels and splintered the running board at the side. The passengers were badly frightened, but none was Injured, and the car proceeded on its way to the end of the run. At the strikers headquarters, to-day. It was announced that fifty of the nonunion motormen and conductors running on the Wilson, Central and Scovll-avenue lines, had quit work because the Big Consolidated had broken Its agreement with them. The men, It is said, were promised $2 a day and board until the strike was over. The company posted a notice to-day at the Wilsonavenue barns stating that as the strike was practically ended the men must pay their own board. The latter, however, deny the strike is over, and, as a result, according to the strike leaders, a number of the new men refused to take out their runs this morning and are now engaged in trying to induce other nonunion men to quit. The Big Consolidated officials deny the men have stopped work. Grand Chief P. M. Arthur, of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, has been reported to the strikers for riding on Big Consolidated cars In disregard of the boycott. When asked to-night if he patronized the Rig Consolidated cars. Chief Arthur replied: "Of course I do. I ride on them every day, and whenever I have occasion to do so." "Why do you do it?" he was asked. Vhy," was the reply, "do you suppose I am going to walk three miles down town when the cars pass my door? Of course I am not. This agitation and the boycott are utterly ridiculous and the strikers have gone altogether too far." The director of police said to-night that officers would be instructed to arrest, on the charge of disorderly conduct, all persons who annoy passengers of the Big Consilidated cars by calling names, following them to their home to ascertain where they live and who they are for the purpose of bring ing them under the boycott. Wages of Engineer Cnt. NEW YORK, Aug. 3. The expected cut In wages of the Brooklyn "IT engineers has just gone into effect. The men are now called motorneers". and receive 5150 a day, In stead of $3.50. The surface motormen are to receive $2 a day and the bridge motormen $2.23. At the time of the recent strike cf the trolley men the engineers of the elevated system, who belong to the Brother hood of Locomotive Engineers, anticipating a cut In wages when the change from steam to electricity was made, sent a committee to President Itosslter to protest. The men declare that he gave them, to understand that no cut would be made. President Itos slter said to-day: "I never promised the men that they would continue to get 53.50 a day when they did the work of motormen." President Rossiter also vigorousMr denied Wall-street rumors to the eftect that he was about to resign. r CHANCE FOR THE PRESIDENT. . Opportunity, to Do Manual Labor in Laylnff a Cornerstone. CHICAGO, Aug. 3. Complaints have aris en In connection with the laying of the cornerstone of the new federal building, which may interfere with the arrangements If they do not upset them entirely. The of ficers of the Chicago stone cutters union say there will be no cornerstone laying un less President McKinley or some other visit ing official takes off his coat, lifts the stono into position himself, smears the mortar which is to set it, trues it up and leaves it as it Is to stand as long as the building lasts. These complications have arisen be cause the union has been unable to reach an agreement with Contractor John Pierce, who is cutting the stone. Union men say the cornerstone of the federal building will be the product of nonunion labor, and that no union man will put a nana to it. President Joseph bulllvan. of the Stone Cutters Union, said to-day: "No union n.an will have anything to do with the lay ing of that cornerstone. This much Is cer tain. We have made every effort to have the work done in Chicago by union men. but, up to this time, have failed. Without the assistance of the derrlckmen and brick layers, I cannot Bee how there Is going to be any cornerstone laying unlesa the Presi dent or some other dignitary is strong enough to lift It into position and has the necessary skin to set it. Organized labor worked hard for the appropriation for that Duiiaing, ana it naa a right to the work. It seems, however, that the principal work the stone cutting Is to go to nonunion labor: not only nonunion, but outside labor. When they get ready to set that nonunion stone Chicago labor organizations will be ready to cease work In all departments As a result of the brick makers' strike all the building trades In the city may be locKea out. inis would precipitate the greatest struggle between employes and emDloyers Chicago has known. It would be a battle to tne death between the Building Trades uouncu ana tne central Association of Con tractors, made up of those operating in all ine ainereni Duiiaing trades. The subject was under consideration even Drlor to the brick makers strike, but since that time it has received more serious consideration, and to sucn an extent that there will be a meet ing Saturday of the members of the association to consider the advisability of nrdar. Ing.the lock-out. The trouble has Its origin in the professed conviction on the part of ine posses ana contractors that the exac tions of the unions affiliated -with the RuildIng Trades Council have become practically unenaurame. .r,acn succeeding year s agreement, it Is said. Is more oppressive than its predecessor and special dissatisfaction haa been created by certain provisions in some of the present agreements prescribing what Rnau constitute a day's work. It is declared that in many Instances work which can ba done in an hour Is made to constitute a day's work. With this decrease in work It is claimed mere has been an Increase of wages. An ultimatum, demanding that the brick. makers strike be declared off. has been Issued by the Chicago Masons' and Rnlld. ers' Association. If the strike is not called off within a week the resolution provides tnai an agreement or me masons and builders with the hod carriers will be canceled. The contractors will use any brick they can kci ana nave it put in place Dy any woriuneu uiey can nire. Flint Glass Wage Conference. PITTSBURG, Pa..

A QIEEVS HOUSEKEEPING. How Victoria Introduced Order Int Windsor Castle. EL M. Jessop, in the Pall .Mall Magazine. Close by the aviary and the dairy in the grounds of Frogmore Is the Queen's tea house, a simple little bungalow surrounded by a veranda and surmounted by a red tile roof. It is connected by an open naesag with a smaller building which contain the kitchen. The furniture of the teahousu is all of plain oak. and the walls are covered by and old-fashioned French chintz paper representing flowers climbing on trellis work, ia nne weather the breaklast table is pet out beneath the great oak trees which overshad ow the teahouse, and here her Majesty takei ner Dreakfajst attended by Indian attendants and accompanied by her grandchildren and the three favorite dogs, who are, according to- the kennel books, "in the house." Dur ing the meal music la furnished by the two pipers, who march to and fro benea.th the trees. The breakfast equipage Is of silver and contains some favorite pieces, notably the saltcellar presented by Iady Alice Stanley, and the "chicken-egg: cup" one saw in JJurton Barber1 picture of "Marco," the Queen pet dog, hung In the Royal Academy In The Queen's breakfast is. in common with all her living, of the very simplest. At her aesire everything good that is in season Is served at her table, but for herself eggs, dry. toast or lancy bread are all that she ever takes. I am sure Very many of mv readers will be glad to hear that, notwithstanding tha enormous amount of business with which eho has to deal, the Queen is, to a large extent, her own housekeeper. The first thing very morning a paper of suggestions from tho clerk of the kitchen is Placed before her. from which, in her own hand, she orders the menus of the day, both for herself and such of her grandchildren as may be with her. These menus are at once sent to the kltch ens, gardens and other departments conj ceraed to obtain tho viands required; and their contents duly entered, together with mo quantities of materials used, in the book which are kept in the royal kitchen. The Queen's chef receives a salary of 500 per annum, and has as satellites four master cooks, two yeomen of the kitchen, two as sistant cooks, two roasting cooks, six aprenuccs ana six Kitchen maids, besides pan trymen ana otner lesser lights, in addition to the great kitchen at Windsor there ara the green room for vegetables and the con fectionery and pastry kitchen. . This last U a most important department, controlled by a confectioner with sixj assistants and fitted in the most complete manner. All her Majesty's favorite cakes, biscuits, pastry, etc, are made here and 6ent by special messenger several times a week to whichever of her residences the court may be staying at. All stores at Wlndior are under proper supervision, no materials being served out without proper requisition feigned by the head of the department concerned. Not a ba of dog biscuits can even be ordered for the kennels unless on the printed form. In fact, the whole vast establishment Is prac tically as metnoaicany conducted aa any great London business. This method, which was evolved by her Majesty and the lata Prince Consort, out of the chaos which de scended from the days of George IV. entirely does away with waste, extravagance and. the abominable perquisite system, and, moreover, enables her Majesty to exerclsa that wise control over her finances which enables her to keep the grandest establish ment on relatively the smallest royal Income in Europe. . . . . WHAT YOCKG WASPS FEED OX. Wonderful Manner In Which Mother Provides the Food. The Chautauquan. The wasp Is not a vegetarian like the bee. and our cement-maker has lefore her the problem of supporting her young with meat rather than with bread. As her eggs are laid out in hot weather and as enough foot must be stored in the cell with the egg To mature the young Insect, the question Is how to preserve the meat fresh for fy long a time. She meets the dimcuity tnui Arter a tube Is finished except one end, which 13 left open, she flies off on a hunt for ppiders. She finda a fat. healthy one, pounces upon it, stiiigs it and carries off and r'acra It In the mud cell. She repeats this process until she has placed as many spiders In the tube as according to her jwdpncnr, win ce need ed. She then laj-st an egg in the cell and walls up the opening:. The remarkable thing aoout tirs perform ance Is the magic errect or her sting. "Whether it Is the result of a subtle polon or whether it is a special spot in the spider's nervous system where the Ftln? is Inserted we do not know. Certain It Is that after belnf? thus stunj? the spider lives on in a paralyzed condition for weeks and even months. It can move only slightly and remain helpless In. Its mud sepulcher until the wap ess hatches into a voracious prub, which at once falls to and cats with creat relish tha meat thus miraculously preservea. Whether the wasp sting renders tne cpider Insensible to pain or not Is a question not yet settled. However, the chances are In favor -T the theory tnat it aoes. Anyway, we neel wastf! no sympathy on the spider. the mct bloodthirsty ot all the little people of the fields and woods. There Is a sense of retributive Justice in the thought of a spider helpless imd at the mercy of a small lnxect which it would have mercilessly devoured had it been able. So we ne1 not accue our alert. Industri ous cement-maker or any unreasonable cruelty if she, like us. Insists upon a meat diet for her young, nor need we have any fear of her stlner. ror she seldom uses It as a weapon of offense or defense. Not Heady to Sleet Glass Worker.
