Ina drunken quarrel over an electien bet the postmaster of St. Cloud assaulted a friend and beat him to insensibility. So seriously injured was the post- master’s victim that it was but a day or two ago that he regained consciousness and he is still un- able to speak or to communicate with anyone in any way. Hisas- sailant, the postmaster of St. Cloud, is still at liberty and no move whatever has been made to call him to account for the deed, although his vietim has lain for days at death’s door. The grand jury of Stearns county investigated the matter and reported that they were un- able to learn the condition of the victim and that there was noth- ing upon which an indictment could be based. At the same time the man lies in the hospital with a clot of blood at the base of his brain and the doctors say that if he lives seven weeks while theclot is disappearing, he will probably recover. . It begins to look as though no man could be safe from the hands of the butcher in Minnesota. PETITION TO THE CZAR. Wutsians Desire a Direct Voice in the Government. St. Petersburg, Nov. 21.—The day may mark a red letter in the Russian calenda; About 100 representatives of provincial zemstvos assembled pri- vately at 2 p. m. with the avowed pur- pose of presenting to Emperor Nich- olas, through Interior Minister Svia- topolk-Mirsky, a truthful picture of the internal conditions of Russia coupled with recommendations pointing out in plain terms the necessity for call- ing a legally empowered constituent assembly to have a direct voice in the government. The word “constitution,” however, will be carefully avoided. The Liberals have been greatly- ex- cited by the developments of the last few days. The meeting was to be held at the duma, or city hall, but at the last moment official auspices were refused, the emperor withdrawing his consent. Many of the zemstvos’ representa- tives attribute the emperor’s attitude primarily to the influence of Grand Duke Sergius, M. Pobedonosteff, the procurer general of the holy synod, and M. Sassonoff, a member of the council of the empjye. and indirectly to such reactionarics as Merchersky, Strumer and Suchinsky. The two lat- ter were the late Interior Minister von Plehve’s assistants, who were promot- ed to the council of the empire. When Prince Sviatopolk-Mirsky dispensed with their services the spectre of the constitution was successfully raised, according to their view. They are not disposed to criticise Prince Svia- topolk-Mirsky, whose good intentions they do not question. They believe he is powerless, but nevertheless they express disappointment at the fact that he yielded. At the meeting in the afternoon seven of the ten articles composing the prepared memorandum were adopt- ed. These sections declares that the “abnormal conditions in Russia are the result of the complete estrange- ment of the government and people, due to the absence of essential, requi- site mutual confidences.” These sec- tlons also declare that the conditions necessitate freedom of conscience, speech, press and the privilege of meeting in union and assert that the peasants must be placed on an equal ity with the other classes. REFUGEES FROM VLADIVOSTOK. Russian Warships There Said to Be in Bad Shape. Chefoo, Nov. 21.—The steamers Taiping and Progress, carrying 1,000 ‘Vladivostok Chinese, arrived here during the day. They report that the former British steamer Allanton left Vladivostok laden with ammunition Nov. 12 in an attempt to run to Port Arthur. Another: source says the steamer Victoria, laden with provis- ions, has succeeded in running the blockade of Port Arthur. A passenger of the Taiping says the Russian protected cruiser Bogatyr is held up by pontoons at Vladivostok, while two other warships are less se- riously damaged. It is not-known how the damages were received. The Japanese are pouring provis- ions, ammunition, clothing, etc., into Newchwang.in view of the approach of the time when the ice will close the river. PRACTICALLY CONCLUDED. Negotiations on Subject of Anglo-Rus- sian Convention, 8t. Petersburg, Nov. 21.—The nego- tlations on the subject of the Anglo- Russian convention are practically concluded. Only one small minor point remains to be settled and that is of such slight importance that For- elgn Minister Lamsdorff and Ambas- sador Hardinge this afternoon will dis- cuss the question as to how and where the signatures are to be exchanged. In substance the change in the lan- guage regarding the determination of the responsibility by the international commission will make the convention provide for the location of any blame ‘which is “found to exist upon any persons of Russian, British or foreign nationality. B e THE Ne;vspa.pers are paid to advertise our customers as well as ourselves and therefore according to their showing, ‘everybody sells the best and cheapest article of the kind in the market. We do not blame the City papers for making these statements, as it is their business to adver- tise all their customers to the best of their ability, léaving the buyer to choose for himself. We therefore make the*fol- lowing announcement: We sell Dry Goods, Shoes, Groceries, at strictly one price. We have such confidence in their excellence that we guaran- tee every article we sell. We cannot all sell the best. We have 00 much modesty to claim that we only sell the best, but if versons deciding to purchase a stock of goods which they can feel justified in knowing are perfect in quality should give the undersigned a call, they would be shown just such a line as we mention.
