Rojestvensky may seize a temporary base In Japanese territory and if it is considered advisable he could there await the arrival of Admiral Neboga- toff’'s division. It is rumored that there is a force of rifiemen on hoard the Russian transports which could be landed for the purpose of co-oper- ating with marines in the same fash- ion that the United States established a base at Guantanamo, Cuba, in 1898. Other naval men think that Vladivos- tok is the only base the Russian ad- miral has in view. There is an embargo on news from Vladivostok concerning the Russian cruisers Rossia, Gromoboi and Boga- tyr and it is supposed, though the ad- miralty does not confirm the supposi- tion, that they have put to sea to effect a diversion and prevent mine laying.

W. Danaher of the Board of missioners. and wilful conspiracy to defaud the county and a large number of instances are specified but what the charges are specifically could not be learned up to a late hour this afternoon. The report alleges however, “that one of the most glaring ir- regularities is the disregard, abuse and perversion of law handling crime, apparently no effort having been made to promptly and effectively prose- cute the perpetratorsof the crime or bring them to justice.” Messrs, Loud, Sibley and Rhoda were seen this afternoon and declared that until they could learn the nature of the charges they could say nothing beyond the fact that they would demand an immediate and searching ‘investigation by the governor of the whole matter.

Miss Pat- terson’s counsel requested permission to examine the minutes of the grand jury which indicted her. This was opposed by Mr. Rand, who asked for IN COURT. a delay of one day in order enat Miss Patterson might be arraigned in com- pany with J. Morgan Smith and Mrs. Smith. Although Miss Patterson’s counsel vigorously objected to the de- lay the court ordered that her plea to the charge be put over. She will be placed on trial again next Monday on the charge of having murdered Y St. Louis, April 14.—Sewer gas that had accumulated in the conduit.of the Union Electric Light and Power com- pany along Jefferson avenue, Cass avenue and Garrison avenue was ig- nited by some molten metal accident- ally dropped into the conduit by work- men and the explosion resulting dam- aged the streets for two miles, broke windows in dwellings and burned four workmen about their faces and hands.

Fish, an employe of the Schwarzchild & Sulzberger Pack- sor, Can., Induced to return to Chicago.

St. Louis, April 14.—United States Senator J. R. Burton of Kansas was reindicted by the federal grand jury during the day on the charge of ac- cepting fees to the amount of $2,500 from the Rialto Grain and Securities company of St. Louis, in whose be- half, it is alleged, he acted as an at- torney before the postoffice depart- ment at Washington. The new indictment contains five counts. The first three specify that Senator Burton made an agreement to accept $2,500 to look after the inter- ests of the St. Louis concern. Count No. 4 charges that he received a $2,500 fee and No. 5 an additional fee of $500. Recently the United States supreme court reversed -the case of Senator Burton, who was convicted of unlaw- fully accepting fees from the Rialto company, on the ground that the money he received was not paid ac- cording to the evidence in St. Louis and hence was without the jurisdic- tion of the St. Louis federal court. The new charges contained in the indictment set forth that Senator Bur- ton received $3,000 and made the agreements referred to in counts 1, 2 and 2 while in St>Louis. District At- torney Dyer said that the retrial of Senator Burton would - take place some time in May. DOMESTIC TROUBLE THE CAUSE. Woman Claiming to Be Millionaire’s Wife Commits Suicide.
