The offer came a* tile result oi a long series of conferences which wound up in a meeting of three hours' duration lip Mr. Schwab's office. It was, however, not accepted nor did the conditions .under which It was discussed by William Nelson Crawford, Counsel for the Sheldon reorganization committee, and Samuel Untermyer at the former's residence, 12 West Forty-ninth street, later admit of what might be called a definite proposition for the reorganization of the shipbuilding company. The conference, It is understood, had to do with a tentative plan by which the second mortgage bonds to the extent of $10,000,000, which Mr. Schwab holds as the purchase price of his Bethlehem properties, and the $16,000,000 of general first mortgage bonds on the entire shipbuilding company would be placed on an equal basis.

When the Hueband Came Home From London, Jan. 20.—The Times' correspondent in Peking says the inspired messages alleging improved prospects of peace which have been so industriously telegraphed from the far east and caused the rise in Japanese and Chinese securities indicate either that Europe is ignorant of the terms of the Japanese note sent to Russia on Jan. 13 or the conviction that, in face of Japan's determination to abate nothing in her demands, Russia will climb down, for the note is stronger in tone than the preceding one, which was answered by the Russian proposals published in Berlin last week. Japan Is unable to accept these proposals. She will not yield her mod-, crate standpoint and will not accept the mediation of a third power. She will insist upon her reasonable de-j mands being accepted by Russia. If they are not accepted she will have recourse to arms.

Y.( Jan. 20.—Mrs. Arthur Oswald, of Oakland, In a sudden lit of insanity, beheaded her four-yearold boy and his pet dog, which, apparently, had defended him from the mother's attack. With an axe, the head of her son was completely severed from the body and was carried from the kitchen to the dining room, where it was placed In the center of the floor, beside which the woman laid the dog's head. Arthur Oswald, husband and father, upon returning home from work last night, discovered the horrible crime. He called to his wife, but received no answer. Going to the upper part of the house, he found his wife lying in bed, fully clothed, with her dress besmirched with blood. Beside her lay their six-months-old baby, sleeping peacefully. In another room, adjoining, Oswald found his two other children, unharmed. Dazed, he ran from the house and gave the alarm. Returning with officers, he approached his wife, but in response she laughed and said meaningless words.

Bread is The Staff of Life NON-SUIT REFUSED. A COLD DAY. Sreat Suffering Caused by Reoerd Defense in Bechtel Case Ordered to Proceed With Testimony. Breaking Temperature. Allentown, Pa., Jan. 20.—After calling an unimportant witness this morning in the Bechtel trial, the State rested. Attorney Schaadt, for the defense, argued that the State had not proven that "Tom" Bechtel was the principal in the crime, and, therefore, Mrs. Bechtel, the defendant, could not be held as accessory. He asked for a verdict of acquittal by direction of the court, but was overruled. Schaadt then made the opening address to the jury. He said the State's attorneys were incompetent, that the stains on the carpet were not human blood stains, and that Mabel was not killed at her home, but elsewhere. The defense began its case by calling to the stand Dr. Morris F. Cawley, of the National Guard, who Bald he had made tests of the blood stains, and that the only article he received that showed human blood stains was Mabel's under vest.

Russian Peace Talk. ers on Manhattan Island have experienced other days mathematically as cold or even colder than yesterday, there have been few days which caused keener suffering. It was the wind (hat lid it. From midnight until sundown a atlff wind swept down over New York from the north, and northwest and irove the zaro air through every ordinary barrier, while from midnight until noon the thermometer bobbed up and down from zero to 4 degrees above, while in many localities within fifty miles of New York It did not rise above the cipher all day. Every living tblmg ouMrars suffered, and thousands indoors were reached by the chilling breath. This was especially true of all apartments Situated on the north side of buildings. To the poor it was a tragady. Hospitals were crowded, outdoor work was blockaded in all directions, and even the moBt alluring bargains in the shops "wient a-begging;" Mortality statistics ihowed that death from diseases caused by cold was Increasing. Since the trial trip of Jan. 1 there had been much progress along the line, and all in the party experienced surprise at the purity of the air and admiration for the solidity of the roadbed. "It Is all a great surprise to me," said Mr. Rockefeller at the conclusion it tho trip. "I had no idea that the tunnel was so perfect in point of transit facilities, ventilation, light and in other respects. I am greatly pleased with the construction, and it certainly will go far toward solving the transit problem In New York. It Is bound to be extremely popular. and in every respect it is aDgreat enterprise magnificently carried out." "I am amazed at the greatness of the undertaking now that I have seen for myself Just what It is," said Mr. Schiff. "Its perfection In detail Is wonderful, and It is certain to be a tremendous success." Mr. Payne llo Retire. The Times' St. Petersburg correspondent says that from a thoroughly competent Russian source comes further confirmation of the extremely peaceful outlook for the present from the viewpoint of receent conclusions reached In Russian ruling spheres. In the interest of peace it ia hoped, says the correspondent, that the renewed demands of Japan will not be pressed in an unconcillatory spirit, so as to make It difficult for Russia to continue In her present frame of mind. It Is now said that in Manchuria all tliat Japan luts asked Is that Russia put _her various declaration* in the form"of a treaty, which Russia refuses to do. As regards a neutral zone in Korea, this proposal appears to have been rejected by Japnn because Russia wished to have the zone on one side only of the Yalu river, while Japan insisted that It be on both sides. Washington, Jan. 20.—The word has gone out quietly among Postmaster General Payne's friends that he will retire from public life at the close of this presidential term.

The Times' correspondent says the optimism of Europe is based on Ignorance of the exact situation. He says the Japanese note recently sent in reply to Russia's counter proposition was the strongest that has yet passed betwean the two powers and that it leaves the Russian government but one alternative, either to take a firm stand, which will mean a clash, or to back down considerably from its position.
