2 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 5, 1890. THE KARA OUTRAGES A Dying Woman the Innocent Cause of It All. THE TERRIBLE HUNGER STRIKE i Labouchere’s Ugly Attack on Lord Salisbury. ey KANSAS FARMERS AND MR. INGALLS. a HORRORS OF SIBERIA. Bick and Dying Women Flogged by Prison Officials. Cutcaao, March 5.—The following communi- cation has been received by the Associated Press: Mreveapouts, Mrxx., March 4, 1890. ‘To the Associated Press: I have just received from a Russian acquaintance in Paris the fol- lowing letter with regard to the reported flogging to death of Madame Sigida at the mines of Kara in eastern Siberia, I bave every reason to believe that my correspondent is trustworthy and that be has received directly from the province of the Trans-Baikal the in- formation that he sends me, but fur- ther than this I know nothing. The story of the flogging of Madame Sigida and the suicide of her companions has been of- ficially denied by the Journal de St. Paterbourge, the organ of the Russian foreign office, and by the St. Petersburg Novoe Vremya, but these denials, unfortunately, do not carry as much ‘weight as they would if the Russian govern- ment had not denied the story of the slaughter of political exiles in Yakutek last March, a story that lam now ready to prove before a committee of the international prison associa- tion, Gro. Kexnax. Pants, Feb. 13, 1890, ‘My Dear Mr. Kewwax: I hasten to send you the details that we received here yesterday from Siberia of the tragedy at Kara, with re- gard to which I wrote you briefly a few days ago. We learn from a trustworthy source that upon the suggestion or initiative of Baron Korff, governor general of the Amoor prov- inces, it was decided some months ago to put all the political offenders at the mincs of Kara upon the footing of common criminal convicts. In pursuance of the decision orders were re- ceived from St. Petersburg to turn the political convict women over to Commundant Tomilin, the director of the common criminal prisons and to have them shut up in the cells occupied Uy female convicts of the common criminal class. The Kara tragedy was the result of this order, which was made known to the political isoners on the 24th of last October. More than Keir of the male political convicts proposed, at ‘once, to commit suicide; but as all would not agree to this. it was finally decided to await definite action on the part of the prison author- ities, The men gave notice, however, that they would kill themselves at the first attempt to carry the order into execution. WHIPPED A DYING WOMAN. About the same time severities began in the ‘womau's political prison. Madame Kaveiskaya, by order of Governor General Korff, had been transferred from Karato the Verkhni Udinsk prison and this bad prepared the way for the events that followed. Her female companions soon learned the harrowing details of her re- moval to Verkhni Udinsk, the circumstances of which were as follows: Baron Korff paid a visit of inspection to the woman's political ison at Ust Kara and entered the cell where ladame Keval-kaya was lying sick in bed. It LABOUCHERE AND SALISBURY. The Ch veland Street Scandal Likely to Become an Issue in British Politics. Loxpox, March 5.—The indignation and con- tentment at Mr. Labouchere’s suspension were pretty strictly divided on party lines, as might have been expected, and now that the excite- ment has ip a measure subsided the one thing remarkable is, the Glasgow Mail says, the de- termination of men of rank to stand by scound- rels of their order, no matter what their crimes are, and the certainty with which bogs f can count upon men who have merely a brevet claim to associate with them to help them out. These men obviously come to the front and their brunt of battle for those members of the nobility who have less volubility or, perhaps, are still possessed of a remnant of shame, and odds are freely offered in club circles that Mr. W. H. Smith will receive a peerage for his cool, not to say brazen, defense of Lord Salisbury. It was the opportunity of hislife and it must be cqnfessed that he improved it to the utmost. Mr. Smith's career has Boon an illustration of the success which rewards adroitness and sub- serviency in a country like England, where a proud order, which feels itself in a measure compelled to be reticent, is profoundly grate- ful for the assistance of creas ally not at all scrupulous, who will take it upon himself at need to expl: acts thatare slgitly of the shady sort, fie ao ——_>____ INGALLS’ DANGEROUS SILENCE. A Farmers’ Alliance Catechism That He Does not Answer All at Once. Catcaao, March 5.—A special from Topeka, Kan., says: The continued rapid growth of the Farmers’ Alliance in Kansas is phenomenal. In some counties of the state nine out of ten of the farmers belong to the organization, which is destined to revolutionize politics in the sunflower state. Judge Piffer, editor of the Kansas Farmer and the recognized leader of the alliance movement, asserts boldly at this early day that the alliance is certain to elect the next legislature, When asked yesterday if members elected by the alliance would support Senator Ingalls for re-election, Judge Pifler said: ‘That depends entirely upon the position taken by Mr. Ingalls. The alliance will not support any man who does not agree with it. Reon time since we addressed a letter to Senator Ingalls requesting his views on the following questio: it, What legislation, if any, do you rec- ommend by way of relief to farmers in the present depressed condition of agriculture? “Second. Do you favor an increase in the volume of circulating money? If yea, to what extent, in what way do you propose to effect the change and how get the money in circula- tion? “Third. In what respect, if at all, and for what purpose do you favor changing the na- tional banking law? “Fourth, Do you favor free and unlimited coinage of silver at present weight and fine- ness?” “Up to this date the request has not been complied with, My opinion is that Senator Ingalls and the farmers of Kansas cannot get together upon these important questions.” oes Berlin to tne Baltic. Loxpox, March 5.—The project of a ship canal from Berlin to the Baltic sea has elicited from the French papers opinions which may be interpreted to mean that they only hope the kaiser will try it. The Panama canal is still a painful memory in France and the Gauls would view with much philosophy the spectacle of the German people undergoing a similar experi- ence, London Engineering, rehearsing the ex- pense and difficulties attending the construc- tion of the comparatively short ship canal to Manchester, thinks it would be cheaper to builda new German capital by the sea, ala St. Petersburg, —--—_. They Are for Upen Sessions. is a strictly enforced rule in all Russian prisons that when an officer—and especially an officer of high rauk—enters a cell every prisoner shali mse to his or her feet and stand in the at- titude of attention. Madame Kavaishaya, who was in an advanced stage of prison consump- tion, neither rose trom her bed or noticed in any way the governor general's entrance. Baron Korff, ignorant perhaps of the unfor- tunate woman's physical condition, asked her roughly whether she did not know who had entered the cell and why she did not get up. Madame Kavalskaya replied wearily: “It makes no 4ifference to me now whether you are the governor general or only a turnkey. I am unable to get up.” Baron Korff, irritated apparently by what seemed to him impertinence, ordered that Madame Kavalskaya be taken to the Verkhni Udinsk prison and there be put into solitary confinement, ‘This order was executed by Masuikoff. the commanding officer of the Ust Kara prison, with great brutality. Madame Kavalskaya declared herself unable to walk, and she was thereupon taken out of her bed by two soldiers, carried down to the bank of the Shitkariver in a sheet and put into a small boat for transportation to the Verkhni Udinsk prison. Her companions held Com- mandant Masuikoff responsible and appealed tothe higher authorities for the latter's re- moval, THE HUNGER STRIKE, When the appeal was disregarded they pro- seeded to enforce it by means of a hunger strike (voluntary self-starvation), and a hun- ger strike of uubeard of duration. They fasted the first time sixteen days, when, at last, Commandant Maruikoff tendered his resigna- tion. The higher authorities refused to ac- cept it, and the hunger strike was renewed for qaght days more, at the expiration of which time the men were notified that the obnoxious Commandant Masuikoff would be removed to another post. Ihe promised removal, how- ever, did uot take place, and again the hanger strike was renewe This time it continued twenty-two days, but must of the women were kept alive in spite of their refusal to eat by the administration of food artificialiy. At the end of this terrible hunger strike ouly Madame Sigida and Madame Solova were able to stand on their feet. Madame Sigida asked for an in- terview with the commandant, and in the course of it struck bim in the face. Whether the biow was provoked by something that he said or whether she intended to sucrifice herself with the hope of bettering the couditions of her companions is notknown. The hungry strikers Were not aware of her intention to strike the commandant, if she had such an intention when she left them. Madame Sigida was re- moved to the common criminal — at Ust Kara, as were also Mesdames Kaluzbnaya and Smyrniteka and, according to one account, Madam Kavalskaya. The result of the blow ven by Madame Sigida to Commandant of was a telegram from Gov. Gen. Korif directing that she be flogged. ‘The prison surgeon made the customary examination of her and reported that she was not ina condi- tion to endure the punishment. WHIPPED IN SVITE OF THE SURGEON. Baron Korff was notified of the surgeon's de- cision and of bis refusal to be present at the flogging. He thereupon telegraphed, “Carry the order into execution without the presence of the doctor.” Madame Sigida was then flogged under the supervision of the assistant director of the com- mon criminal prison, an officer named Ver- bofski. Another letter gives the name of the Sssistant director as Bobrofski. She died two days later from heart failure, and almost imme- Giatel afterward Mesdames Smurnitskaya, “re and Kavalskaya poisoned them- selves. The other women were so isolated that did not know what had happened, but the news of the terrible tragedy reached the men’s [oo and according to information furnished y the procureur thirty of the mule political convicts took poison. Only two of them, how- ever—Kaluzhnvi and Bobokhot—died: the others were saved by medical treatment.

In England Christian Protestant sisters are accomplishing a great work, e8] liy in the haunts of vice and iniquity in the eastern section of London. In Scotland, also, the work has ‘devel in connection with the historic church of John Knox.

Even Bets That the Court of Inquiry Will Whitewash Him. Interest in the McCalla case continues to be strong in naval circles, Bets are being offered as tothe outcome of the investigation by the court of inquiry that was ordered yesterday, but it would seem that there is no actual bet- ting being done. Said an officer this morning: “The thing is going to be a whitewash—there are bets abroad of even money that they will whitewash him, with no takera, THE INQUIRY TO COVER THE ENTIRE VOYAGE. The “precept” or letter of instructions to the court is to the effect that the investigation shall cover the entire voyage of the Enterprise, from the time she sailed from New York until her return home the other day. There are no specific charges or directions as to any certain matters to look into, except that the court is to determine whether or not Commander Mc- Calla was in any way cruel or unnecessa- rily harsh in his conduct toward his or went beyond the laws in treatment of prisoners, Thus it will be seen that it will be largely a matter of opinion with the court as to the re- sponsibility or liability of the commander, and this fact may have a bearing upon the attitude of the members in their final findings, THE MAIN TOPIO FOR GossIP inthe case today was the Bermuda letter printed in the New York Times of yesterday preferring additional charges against Capt. McCalla with reference to his actions while the Enterprise was coaling there on her return trip. The letter states that McCalla and three other officers—Mulligan, Mudd and the sur- geon—had several dinners on shore, at which they grew very convivial and finally indulged in SOME PECULIAR PLEASANTRIES with the inhabitants of Hamilton, the port where they were stopping. This was on the 22d of February, and the story goes that the four officers, bursting with patriotic enthu- siasm, ‘painted the town red.” It is said that atasupper in which three civilians partici- Vp the champagne flowed so freely that the ollowing incident resulted: “The birthday of the father of his country was at first the topic of conversation, and the commander, waxing at once eloquent and pa- triotic, rose in his place and removing his silk hat stood it in the center of the table, saying: ‘That hat, gentlemen, represents George Wash- ington. pele A who touches that hat touches George, and I'll fight him, What? Nobody wants to touch George. Then we'll open an- other bottle.’ Another member of the party laid his hat down by the commander's, saying, ‘That is George’s brother;’ another was added to represent ‘George's other brother,’ and soon all seven hate were on the table, representing the entire Washington ree Each hat of coarse received a baptism in due form. From Washington's birthday the conversation change’ gradually and gracefully to naval mat- ters, and this brought Commander McCalla again to his feet, to the great delight of the spectators who had gathered in the room.” A Hamilton policeman made an ineffectual effort to stop the row the quartet were mak- ing ae they made their way back to the ship, and only increased the disturbance, COMMANDER M'CALLA’S ACCOUNT OF THE LITTLE DINNER, It is understood that Capt. McCalla says that there is jugtenough of truth in the yarn to gives clever writer a chance to exaggerate. He says that the 22d being the birthday of the surgeon of the ship as well as that of the immortal George, some of the officers, including himself, had a “little dinner” in the hotel and had a jolly time, but there were none of the features accredited to the affair in the Times’ letter. Great surprise and general incredulity was ex- pressed among officers at this story, as the understanding is and always has been that Capt, McCalla is not a drinking man. An Alleged Policy Shop Raided. Policeman Daley entered a policy shop in Freeman’s alley last night and surprised a num- ber of players. Oneof them said, “Give me 411-44,” just as the officer entered, but he changed his mind before the number was re- corded. Sam West, the alleged writer, was ar- rested and released on @50. Today in the Po- lice Court a jury trial was demanded and bond ‘was given. ——_—_. TO ABOLISH SECRET SESSIONS. The Senate Will Probably Do Away ‘With Them Very Soon, A Washington special to the New York Sun g 8 THE SENATE AND THE PRESS. What Shall be Done With Contuma- clous Correspondents? THE WEIGHTY PROBLEM DISCUSSED IN “SECRET SESSION” — WHOLESALE ARRESTS AND THE ABOLITION OF THE PRESS GALLERY FAVORED— 4 VOICE FROM THE NORTHWEST. “One man may lead a horse to water,” says the old proverb, but eighty-two Senators can't make him drink, Just now the ‘‘smelling” committee of the Senate is beginning to real- ize the force of the ancient saw, and in its utter helplessness has appealed to the Senate to awake to the situation. For more than a week Senator Dolph’s little aggregation of inquisi- tors has been endeavoring to compel » few newspaper men to divulge the sources from whence they secured information as to Senate proceedings in secret session, and the commit- tee has failed in every instance. Now it has taken its complaint to the body which made it and it aske for power to confine the contuma- cious ones in some of the committee rooms at the Capitol. Yesterday afternoon, shortly be- fore 1 o'clock, Senator Dolph moved to go into secret session and the motion was adopted. The lobby of the press gallery was cleared of cor dents and the upper floor was de- serted by all save the door keepers, and they were at least 10 feet away from the solid 4-feet wallsand the iron doors, ‘The Senate then wrestled with the question, “Is there a penalty for contumaciousness?" and there was a very interesting debate, in which the “smelling” committee dolefully requested its brethren to listen to its tale of woe, ‘NO HALF-WAY MEASURES, The performance was opened by Senator Dolph, who took advantage of the alleged secrecy of the occasion to offer a resolution authorizing the arrest and imprisonment ot two victims—representatives of the Associated and United Press, Others Senators thought the ar- resting business should be run on a wholesale scale and insisted that the number of prisoners be increased until the press gallery waa practi- cally disabled. Senator Wilson of Iowa, Senator Harris and Senator Blackburn, all members of the “‘smeil- ing” committee, insisted that the Senate must now speak forth or forever hereafter hold its peace, They produced a prodigious amount of newspaper comment, which they regarded as villitying in character, and they sounded the senatorial war bugle very loudly, Senator Wilson of Iowa thought a dungeon too pleasanta residence for those newspaper men, who insisted on printing the happenings in what custom had Senominated “secret ses- sions of the Senate.” The guilty ones should be promptly “run in” and kept in until they divulged the sources of their information, TO ABOLISH THE PRESS GALLERY. Senator Blackburn's support of the Dolph resolution was unyielding. He very gravely repeated a suggestion which he made publicly a day or two ago. He wants to wipe the press gallery out of existence; not because that would prevent the reporting of secret session: but simply as a matter of vengeance, Sen: torial wrath could find a vent in this propos: tion and the newspaper men would be incon- venienced not a little. Senator Teller allowed Mr. Dolph and his as- sistants to carry on for awhile and then he of- fered a substitute for the “smelling” commit- tee’s resolution, ‘he substitute provides for the consideration of NOMINATIONS IN OPEN SESSION. In presenting it Senator Teller told the Senate much wholesome truth, He said that the en- tire country was laughing at the ludicrous con- duct of the Senate in endeavoring to find out who gave away executive matters, when it was well known that Senators themselves were the culpable ones. Suppose they did imprison a few newspaper men,what would be gained? There would only be an increase in the volume of popular laughter—and the laugh would not be on the newspaper men. Senator Platt supported Senator Teller’s res- olution, but Senator Harris did not. He was with Dolph, ‘Then came the new northwest—breezy, clear andcool. Senators Moody and Pettigrew were inthe lead and they told the Senate, in unmis- takable language, that the present movement was NOTHING LESS THAN A BLUNDER. For five hours the matter continued under discussion and then the Senate adjourned with an understanding that a vote shall be taken, if ible, this evening. There are numerous on difficulties which Senators seem to think need attention. So Senator Evarts will give his views on that phase of the teapot tempest this afternoon, Senator Blackburn's plan to abolish the press gallery has not yet commenced to alarm the correspondents. Strange as it may seem, this absurd proposition has & number of advocates, Ifit became a fact the newspaper men would not object. There would be one less gallery to attend to. Should the Kentuckian’s scheme succeed there will be sweet music in the upper atmosphere, for the result would be a boycott that Senators would speedily tire of. It is be- lieved that all of the prominent newspapers of the country would agree to completely ignore the Senate and its oratory. Senators would then be compelled to make heavy investments in the equally heavy Congressional Record or their constituents would never find out what they had been talking about. SENATOR HAWLEY TOOK THE GROUND that the correspondents were blameless in this matter, Their papers demanded the informa- tion and it was sent them. He thought Senator Dolph’s idea that the newspaper men’s conduct was seditious was absurd. Senator Vest thought so too, although he is one of the “‘smellers,” He is not such an en- thusiast as Mr. Dolph would like him to be. DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.

W. E. Curtis, executive officer of the Pan- American congress, today addressed the follow- ing note to the members of the conference as the initial step toward carrying out the pro- posed trip through the south: “The Secretary of State desires me to present his compliments and to say that the citizens of the southern states are very anxious that the delegates should visit that section Before re- turni to their homes, and have forwarded through him many cordial invitations, He also earnestly desires that the visit shall be made, and has directed me to invite you to partici- te in an excursion similar to that given in tober and November last, to leave Wash- ington ithmediately upon the final adjourn- ment of the conference and to return here two or three weeks thereafter. As considerable time will be required to make the necessary arrangements, I beg the favorof an early acceptance,” THE COURTS. - Cmcurt Covrt.—Judge Mc Yesterday—Glick agt.
