A band of terrorists is swn to be at work here and during night there were wholesale wrches for suspects. The city pris- 15 are so overcrowded that hundreds Lave been removed to Schlusselburg toriress and to the fortress of St. Pe- ter and St. Paul. Government spies are at work among the workmen and revolutionary societies with instruc- ions to give warning of meetings, which are immediately surrounded, the members searched for arms and the ringleaders taken into custody. Never- theless, the workmen’s council and the executive committee of the social rev- olutionists are managing to evade ar- rvest and are meeting each day at a| gppointmenc of a coms litferent place in the outskirts of the! uni Lhe fty.

Difficult Task Accomplished, “'The most difficull task,” arunor general continued, “was to drive them from their base on the Kazan ad belween Moscow and Perovo, miles east of Mosc: L1+ in the Presna di ) pro ent their escape. Both these (¢ were successfully accomplished.

London, Jan. 2—The alien act passed at the last session of parlia- ment came into force during the day. The first effect of the new law was that the immigration officers refused to permit the landing of twenty-four of forty-two immigrants from Ger- many. The alien act prohibits immigrants from landing in Great Britain except at ports where an immigration officer is stationed and only with his consent and after a medical inspection. Im-} migrants may be refused permission to land if unable to show that they are in a position to obtain means to keep themselves decently, if insane, if on account of disease or other cause they are. likely to become a charge to the taxpayers, if they have been sentenced to prison for an extradical crime not of a political nature or if they have previously been expelled from Great Britain. The home secretary may also order the expulsion of an alien on a certificate from a court of law. The bill, however, provides that an alien shall not be refused permission to land on account of want of means if able to prove that he or she is seek- ing admission to Great Britain solely to avoid prosecution for political of- fenses. LAKE FISHING TREATY New Convention With Great Britain to Be Signed Shortly. ‘Washington, Jan. 2.—Preservation and development of the fisheries of the Great lLakes are the purposes of an agreement which will be qlonwl early in the new year by Secretar State Root and British Amba Dur agrcement will tions are 1 authori- nd Canada, land scas. !aws and to be entorced by the fe tics of the United States thus taking control of this industry from the jurisdiction of the states. The laws and regulations are to re- main in force five yea after which time they may be revised. The amount of fish taken from the lakes has steadily declined and the decrease has caused higher prices in the market. WRECKED BY A BONG. Factory in Scranton, Badly Damaged. Scranton, Pa., Jan. 2—A dynamite bomb was thrown against the front door of the Giovenni Fazzi macaroni factory at #28 Franklin avenue at 1:15 o’clock a, m. and the whole front of the building and half the store- room were wrecked. The Arlington hotel, adjoining, was badly damaged. Fazzi, who is an aged and well-to-do Italian, has received three letters since Oct. 6, signed “The Iron Head,” which made demands on him for $1.000 under penalty of the death of himselt and family. He paid no heed to the let- ters and did not even notify the poiice. The scene of the explosion is in the very heart of the city. HUSBAND DEAD; Macaroni Pa., WIFE DYING.

AMERICAN VESSELS TO THE RESCUE WILL TAKE OFF NON-COMBAT- ANTS AND AFFORD THEM EVERY PROTECTION. New York, Jan. 2.—A cable dispatch to the Herald from Puerto Plata, San- to Domingo, says: The Dominican gunboat Independen- cia has anchored off Puerto Plata and her commander, Captain Catrain, has demanded the surrender of the town to the legitimate government of Pres- ident Morales within twenty-four hours; otherwise he will bombard the ‘town. The Independencia has landed troops safely, The American consul has informed the mayor that United States cruisers will receive the women and children on board and afford them every pro- tection, Washington, Jan, 2—Advices re- ceived here from Santo Domingo by cable are to the effect that there is little probability of a bombardment of Puerto Plata by the Morales gunboat Independencia, as threatened. The United States gunhoats Nashville and Scorpion are now in the harbor and negotiations are in progress which make it probable that, as Captain Dil- lingham did at Monte Cristi two years ago, both factions of the Dominicans will be warned to make their fight outside of the town if they desire to fight at all.

TEN CENTS PER WEEK NEW YORK. LIFE RELU ANTLY ACCEPTED. ACCUSES NEWSPAPERS OF MIS- REPRESENTATION AND DIS- TORTION OF FACTS. New York, Jan. 2—It has been made known on the best authority that John A. McCall resigned on Sat- urday the presidency of the New York Life Insurance company, says the Times, and that his resignation was reluctantly accepted by the trustees of the company.. The resignation was in writing. In his letter Mr. McCall said that, after long and careful consideration, he had felt it best to take such a step. In the months during which the insur- ance controversy has affected the New York Life, he said, his peace of mind had suffered from continuous misun- derstanding and misrepresentation of his actions and distortion of facts and misquotation of his utterances by the newspapers. He was not in good health now and he felt that it would be best for himself and for the com- pany it he resigned the presidency. Mr. McCall, it is undersiood, in- tends to take a long rest. It is not improbable that he will go to Burope tor a while. John Claflin, the dry goods mer- chant, who is a trustee of the Wew York Life, has frequently been spoken of as Mr. McCall’s successor, but it is by no means certain that Mx Claflin will accept the office, Twenty Soldiers Killed.
