ANKETY [N RUSSIA Detachment of Czar’s Troops Sur- rounded by Persians. I were the news SITUATION IS MORE SERIOUS Entire Population of the Boundary Districts, Composed of Well Armed and Warlike Tribes, Rising to the Support of the Brigands. St. Petersburg, April 21.—The latest news received here of the boundary war—that a Russian detachment had been pemned in and was calling for reinforcements—has aroused the anx- lety of the foreign office. It shows that the entire population of this dis- trict, composed of well armed and warlike tribes, is rising to the sup- port of the brigands who have been attacked. The situation may become still more serious if the Kurdish ban- dits who inhabit Russian territory, en- couraged by the retirement of the Russian troops, join their Persian kindred and threaten the Russian communications. The town of Shirin, whither one of the Russian detach- ments has been forced to retire, is situated on the Persian frontier twen- ty miles from Belesuvar. The de- tachment of Russian troops from Shirin has been operating to cover the flank of the main force at Bele- suvar. SURROUNDED BY BRIGANDS Russian Force in Persia Situation. Tiflis, April 21.—An alarming report has just been received here setting forth the critical situation of a small Russlan expeditionary force in Persia, ‘which is menaced by a vastly superior body of Persian brigands. The Rus- sian troops penetrated the frontier in the neighborhood of Belesuvar in pur- suit of Kurdish brigands who had committed depredations in Russian territory. The Russian commander of the force has sent out a messenger de- manding reinforcements of infantry, artillery and cavalry. The Persians, who have been joined by a warlike tribe of Nomads, sur- round the Russians with a numerous force and their horsemen have as- sumed the offensive. The sending in of Russian reinforcements is made particularly difficult by the flooded condition of the country. The Russians had three men killed and ten wounded in various minor en- gagements with the Persians. NATIVES ARE TROUBLESOME Army Officers Tell of Serious Upris- ings in Mindanao. San Francisco, April 21.—Army offi- cers on the transport Buford from the Philippines bring news of serious up- risings In Mindanao and spasms of guerrilla warfare between the whites, the settlers and the natives. “The natives have fired on the whites,” said Colonel F. W. Mansfield of the Second infantry, who is in charge of the troops that arrived on the Buford, “and we have ended the trouble for the time. But another outbreak may come at any minute.” Captain Charles H. Muir of the Sec- ond infantry spent some time in the Moro country quieting the natives and the campaign there was a trying one. The natives, he said, fight as did the North American Indians and it takes many weeks of scouting and hard work to bring them to terms. WOMEN IN RACE WAR. One Negress Killed and Another Nar- \ rowly Escapes. Memphis, Tenn., April 21.—DMrs. James Wright of this city shot and in- stantly killed Leila Gordgn, a negr in Critical | three ofticer Mrs. Wright used a single barreled shotgun and immediately following the murder Mrs. Wright reloaded the ‘weapon and started in pursuit of Mary Davis, another negro woman. She shot at her once after a chase of nearly a block, but the charge went wild. The murder followed a desperate struggle between white and negro wo- men in which Mrs. John Wright, a sister-in-law of Mrs. James Wright, who lives with her, received a beating at the hands of the Davis and Gordon women. A dispute over the children | of the white women being stopped from playing with some negro chil- dren living in the vicinity led to the killing. Bloody Battle Hotel. Warrensburg, Mo., April 21.—James Ryan, chief of police, and Byron Hall, aged thirty, a son of J. E. Hall, a farmer, were killed and James E. Basham and Robert Pollock, night offl- cers, were wounded in a pistol duel in the corridor of the Estes hotel. The were attempting to take a revolver from Hall when he shot all three. The officers returned the fire and Hall was shot twice. Drowns Herself and Babe. Trenton, N. J., April 21.—Mrs. Clau- dia Swith, wife of a farmer residing near Yardley. Pa, walked into the Delaware river with her baby in her arms and both were drowned. Mrs. Smith had been ill for a long time and it is supposed she committed suicide while despondent. Mrs. Smith was forty years old and the mother of elght children. Mexican Soldiers Mutiny. San Francisco, April 20.—While al- most the entire populace of Mazatlan, Mex., were participating in a religious fiesta twenty-five soldiers broke out of the garrison and began a wild career of rioting and bloodshed. Within a space of half an hour they had killed two policemen and one other citizen and had waylaid and robbed three men in the outskirts of the city. Robbers Likely to Escape. Chautauqua, Kan., April 20.—With four posses pursuing them the two men who robbed the State bank of Chautauqua are still at large. They are believed to be in the Osage hills, across the line from here in Okla- homa. These hills afford splendid op- portunities for hiding and the capture of the robbers is now considered doubtful. BRIEF BITS OF NEWS. While rarting logs down the Wa- bash river the raft parted and Charles and John Hillman, brothers, of Peters. burg, Ind., were drowned. George L. Johnson, for many years prominent in Ohio Democratic circles and revenue collector of the Toledo district under President Cleveland, is dead, aged seventy years. J. W. Weatherford, a prominent cit- izen, was shot and instantly killed by his nephew, Avery Hardage, near Brantley, Ala. The murder was the culmination of an old feud. King Edward and Queen Alexandra have left London for a visit to Copen- hagen, Stockholm and Christiania, where they will be the guests of the royal families at those capitals. It has been decided definitely that the American fleet of battleships will not call at any European port on its way home with the exception of cer- tain points in the Mediterranean where it is necessary to stop for coal.

QUESTION OF WEALTH Sole Reason for Objection to Dr. Hill by German Emperor. TOO POOR TO LIVE IN STYLE @ongressman Longworth Discusses In- cident During Debate on the Diplo- matic Appropriation Bill House of Representatives. in the Washington, April 2t.—“The objec- tion to Dr. Hill as ambassador to Ber- lin was simply and solely that his pri- vate fortune would not enable him to represent properly the dignity of the American nation.” This statement was made in tHe house of representatives by Mr. Long- worth of Ohio during the considera- tion of the diplomatic appropriation bill. Mr. Longworth was making a plea for the maintenance by the gov- ernment of suitable legation buildings at the various foreign capitals. He referred to the press dispatches stat- ing that the German emperor had re- fused to accept Mr. Hill and to the official denial given to the published stories. “Nevertheless,” said Mr. Longworth, “there is no doubt that there was a foundation for these stories beyond mere rumor and it is undoubtedly true that persons high in authority in Germany for some time have been saying that Dr. Hill was not persona gratissima to the em- peror.” Poverty the Only Drawback. These objections, however, he de- clared, could not be because Dr. Hill ‘was not experienced in diplomacy, nor sufliciently learned in international law, nor that he was not sufficiently able and representative. They were, he asserted, due entirely to the fact “that because he was not sufficiently well off to pay the difference be- tween the amount paid him as salary and the amount necessary to maintain his position as ambassador he would not only not be able to keep up such an establishment as that of the pres- ent American ambassador but would not be able to keep up any establish- ment at all.” Mr. Longworth said that without going into the question as to whether Mr. Tower had maintained so luxuri- ous an establishment everybody would concede that the American ambassa- dor to Germany should at least have a house to live in and not be com- pelled to live in a hotel or a flat. “It is no excuse,” he said, “that we do not act because financial conditions do not warrant the expense. An office- holding aristocracy is bad enough in any country when based on birth and blood, but when based on wealth it is infinitely worse, and worse than all in a republic.” MARRIED IN GERMAN TOWN Paris Paper Insists Anna Gould Is Princess de Sagan. Paris, April 2 .—The Cride Paris, which professes to chronicle the do- ings of the fashionable set of Paris, insists that the marriage of Madame Anna Gould, formerly the wife of Count Boni de Castellane, and Prince Helie de sagan, his cousin, already has taken place. The paper announced some time ago that this marriage had been celebrated secretly in Germany. Now it says: “We are now in a position to com- plete our information. This marriage was celebrated secretly in a little town on our Eastern frontier. When in New York Madame Gould informed her family that her weédding already was an accomplished fact and this is why the members of her family so quickly consented.” FAVORS HEPBURN BILL. President Will Oppose Commission to Consider Anti-Trust Law. Washington, April 2 .—President Roosevelt has stated that he will op- pose any bill providing a commission to consider the subject of amend- ments to the Sherman anti-trust law. The Merchants’ association of New York and several other business or- ganizations are sending circular let- ters throughout the country suggest- ing a commission to consider the whole subject and make recommenda- tions to the next session of congress. The president takes the position that congress and the country fully under- stand the question and he believes that there should be action at this session. Lures Woman to Her Death. Chicago, April 2.—After traveling hundreds of miles in search of a wo- man with whom he formerly lived at St. Paul, swearing vengeance because she had deserted him to elope with another, Guiseppe Crea of St. Paul, thirty-one years old, overtook and lured his victim to Halstead and West Taylor streets and mortally wounded her. Crea stabbed her three times, each wound in itself being sufficient to cause death. AGREEMENT IS REACHED. Two Hundred Thousand Miners Will Resume Work. Toledo, O., April 2,.—The 200,000 idle miners in the Central competitive district will return to work at once. An amicable agreement between min- ers and operators has been reached by members of the scale committees and this agreement was later ratified by the joint meeting of miners and operalors. Both sides are satisfied with the results of the convention and the conference adjourned with the best of feeling between the two par- ties to the controversy. The terms of the agreement pro- vide for the general resumption of work throughout the district immedi- ately; the adoption of the old rate of 90 cents a ton for mining coal; a referendum vote to be taken by dis- tricts and a call of the committee to receive the returns of the vote, the T S e —r—— —— rvterenaum GEME ‘on the proposition to make the agreement hold for twe years; a uniform screen of 134 inches; an elght-hour day; the referring of all local differences as to prices and con- ditions to the districts for settlement; an invitation to Illinois operators t¢ join in the next interstate convention; and that the next jeint interstate con- ference be held in Toledo in Febru- ary, 1910. Miners and operators are delighted with the outcome of the conference and declare there is now a more har- monious feeling between miners and operators than has existed in years. THOUSANDS ARE HOMELESS Rivers in Texas Higher Than for Twenty-five Years. Fort Worth, Tex., April 2,—An- other rise of three feet in Clear and West Fork rivers forced thousands of persons to flee from their homes in East Fort Worth. So far as known four persons have lost (Leir lives. The rise was so rapid that people were obliged to leave their furniture and personal effects. At least 3,000 per- sons have been rendered homeless and all streams are still rising. Rail- road service is badly crippled and the Texas and Pacific railroad reports that it will not be able to send out trains west for two or three days. The Fort Worth and Rio Grande .and the Santa Fe railroads are running very few trains. Five hundred dele- gates to the state labor convention are waterbound here. A cloudburst in Parker and Palo Pinto counties will probably send the Brazos and Trinity rivers two feet higher and these streams are now higher than in twenty-five years. North Fert Worth is isolated and 500 houses are submerged. Mineral City, near Weatherford, is under wa- ter and Cleburn, south of here on the Santa Fe, is surrounded by the flood. EIGHT POLICEMEN ON EACH Cars of Chester (Pa.) Traction Com- pany Carry No Passengers. Chester, Pa., April 2)—The state police who have been ordered here to maintain order during the street car strike appear to have the situation well in hand. Here and there occa- sionally there are small street fights, but nothing approaching a riot has occurred since the troopers took charge. At noon the Chester Traction com- pany resumed the running of cars through the streets of the city. About twenty cars were in operation, each one being guarded by eight mounted policemen. The cars, however, took 10 passengers. Drops Flatiron on Burglar’s Head. Marietta, 0., April 2 .—Awakened by the ringing of his cash register George Wilderman, who lives over his saloon in West Marietta, investigated and found a man vobbing his till. Afraid to shoot for fear that he would kill the fellow Wilderman waited un- til the robber came out and dropped a flatiron on him, squarely on top of the head, fracturing his skull. Four Railroad Workmen Drowned. ‘Winnipeg, Man., April 2 .—By the upsetting of a scow cressing the Bat- tle river, which was swollen by fresh- ets, nine Grand Trunk Pacific railway workmen were thrown into the water and four were drowned. The dead are Woodford Readman, Northampton, Eng.; T. Kirby, homesteader, Alberta; A. Lemmons, St. Boniface, Man., and B. Levis, Cambra, France. Rounding Up Night Riders. Owensboro, Ky., April 2 .—Company C of the Kentucky national guard has received orders from Adjutant Gen- eral Johnson to leave at once for Pa- ducah. It is supposed that they will see duty in Trigg and Calloway coun- ties, where alleged night riders are being rounded up. Custc’ns Officer Drowned. Fort Frances, Ont., April 2 .—Will- lam Brack, American customs officer here, was drowned while endeavoring to run the rapids in a canoe. Brack came from St. Paul, where his par- ents live. SIMPLE WASHICURES ECZEMA Itching, Burning Skin Disease Routed Without Use of In- jurious Drugs. Great inventors often have been praised for surrendering the secrets of their discoveries. Pratically the same thing happened in the medical world in the case of Dr. Decatur.D. Dennis, the eminent skin specialist of Chicago. Dr. Denuis, in his own office prac- rice, discovered that pure vegetable oil of wintergreen, properly fmixed with other simple remedies was practically a sure specific for Eczema, psoriasis, barber’s itch, salt rheum, and other itching skin diseases. But the oil of wintergreen alone was foundineffective. It required other mild ingredients such as glycerine and thymol compounded with” the wintergreen, to produce the real eczema cure. This compounded D. D. D. Pre- scription positively takes away the itch at once—the instant it is ap- plied to the skin. This vegetable liquid does away with deleterious drugs solong used in an attempt to doctor the blood. Whereas modern science has determined that eczema is first and all the time a skin dis- glase. ~ If you want to know more about the famous D. D. D. Prescription, call at our store.

PRODUCED ON SAME MACHINE Witness Says Anonymous Communica- tions Attacking Congressmen Were Weritten on Typewriter Used in Pre- paring Other Documents in Case. Washington, April 2).—A noted handwriting expert testified before the special committee of the houde which is investigating the charges brought by Representative Lilley of Connecticut that members of -the house had been improperly influenced by the Electric Boat company in the matter of submarine boat legislation. Chairman Boutell stated at the outset of the session that of the many charges before the committee the most serious was that corrupt means had been used to secure or defeat nomination and election of members of the present congress. “Such a charge reflects upon the in- tegrity of the house and deserves the most exhaustive examination by this committee,” he said. “The only case of the kind which the testimony has disclosed is the cowardly attempt that has been made, partly through an anonymous letter, to blacken the name and ruin the career of Representative Loud of Michigan. As no one has had the courage to admit the authorship of these dastardly communications this committee feels that the burden has been laid upon it to discover if pos- sible the authorship of these com- munications.” Expert Identifies Typewriter. Mr. Boutell stated that the letters had been turned over to experts and he then called David N. Carvalho to the stand. Mr. Carvalho said he had examined the two letters in question, one re- ceived by the Washington correspond- ent of the Detroit Free Press and the other by Frank Edinborough, a state senator from Michigan and now a candidate for congress against Mr. Loud. He also had examined a great many of the typewritten documents and compared them with the anon- ymous letters, taking photographs and preparing charts showing his deduc- tions. Unquestionably, he said, the two anonymous letters and certain of the papers were written on one and the same machine. These documents, it has been testified, were dictated by former Senator Thurston and written by Almer E. Neff on a typewriter in the Washington office of the Torpedo Boat company. The documents in question were questions and state- ments presented to the committee by Mr. Lilley and signed by him. The witness said that the identity of typewriting machines on which two or more papers were written could be determined more readily than the gen- uineness of handwriting. SENATOR FULTON BEATEN Fails to Secure Renomination in Ore- gon Primaries. Portland, Ore., April 2..—Election returns indicate the selection of H. M. Cake for the Republican nomina- tion for United States senator over Senator Charles W. Fulton and that W. R. Ellis, incumbent, has defeated former Governor T. T. Geer and George S. Shepard for the nomination for representative from the Second district. W. C. Hawley was not op- posed for the nomination for repre- sentative from the First district. Rob- ert S. Bean was nominated for justice of the supreme court. The campaign leading up to the pri- maries was one of the most bitter ever fought in Oregon, especially in the race for the senatorship. Francis J. Heney played an important part in the campaign against Fulton, whom he fought bitterly for the latter’s al- leged misconduct in the office which he now holds.
