Japan is Urged by European Pow ers to Fix the Indemnity at as Low Figure in Cash as Possi ble. President Roosevelt Al so Adds His Influence. By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, JUNE 15. (3 P. M.) OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT HAS BEEN MADE THAT WASHINGTON HAS BEEN SELECTED AS THE LO CATION OF THE PEACE CON FERENCE. THE ANNOUNCEMENT CAME IN THE FORM OF AN INFORMAL STATEMENT ISSUED BY SECRE TARY LOEB BY THE DIRECTION OF THE PRESIDENT. THE STATE MENT FOLLOWS: "WHEN THE TWO GOVERN MENTS WERE UNABLE TO AGREE UPON EITHER CHEFOO OR PARIS, THE PRESIDENT SUGGESTED THE. HAGUE, BUT BOTH GOVERNMENTS HAVE NOW REQUESTED WASHING TON BE CHOSEN AS THE PLACE OF MEETING AND THE PRESIDENT ACCORDINGLY FORMALLY NOTI- i FIED BOTH GOVERNMENTS THAT WASHINGTON WAS SO SELECTED.

First Press Account. Washington, June 15. Pressure is being brought to bear upon Japan to induce her to fix the sum which she will demand as indemnity at as low a figure in cash as is possible in the circumstances. This pressure is be ing exerted especially by the Euro pean governments, but President Roosevelt, it is intimated, also has ad vised the Japanese government that a moderation in her demand - for a cash indemnity not only would facili tate the negotiation of peace terms, but would be regarded by the powers with particular favor. ' No decision has yet been reached as to the place of holding the peace conference. The impression is grow ing that, Washington will likely be the city finally selected, although both The Hague and Geneva are under con sideration. Objections have been made by the Japanese to The Hague, but it is not believed that those ob jections are fundamental or unalter able. However, as the situation nciw is, Washington appears to be the city most likely to be selected. It can be said, on authority,' that if the confer ence is held in the United States, it will be in Washington. No other place in this country has ben considered seriously. After the selection ff the place "of meeting of the plenipotentiaries, the two governments will name those who are to represent them at the confer ence, men an armistice oetween tne contending armies in the field wilfbe)ben discharged, that he killed a man arranged, and pending the result of the peace conference, the great armies facing each other in Manchuria will The 3 P'ss That Did the Work. lie on their arms awaiting the final signal from their governments.

It is a long journey," meaning, probably, that it might take a considerable time to determine the matter. Three New Cates of Fever. By Associated Press. Washington, June 15.

Special to The News. Raleigh, June 15. After the exami nation of a number of character wit nesses, counsel for the plaintiff rested their case in the damage suit of Gattis vs. Kilgo and the defendant's counsel lodged a motion for a non suit on the grounds that there was no evidence of malice sufficient to go to the jury.

He was on the stand alto gether six hours and was subjected to a rigid cross examination. He claimed that he was employed by J. C. Jones to carry on the business at $25 per week and that he had not seen Jones since the trouble started. He insisted that his business was perfectly legiti mate and wojild have, panned out all right if the federal officers had not in terfered.

Jones em ployed him to conduct the Jones & Powell business and that the box was rented in the name of Jones & Powell. That he carried on similar fraudulent business in South Norfolk, Smithfield and other places in Virginia and North Carolina.
