The Russians generally believe that the Emperor, court and Government undoubtedly have been dazed by the| blunt, direct fashion with which Par- liament has spoken out and their policy naturally will be to gain time. The Emperor personally is in a benefi- cent frame of mind and for the pres- ent will not listen to the counsels of those who advise him to dissolve Par- llament and fight. Nevertheless he is resolved not to yleld anything like all that Parliament demands. It can be predicted that he will pursue a tem- porizing policy, with partial amnesty President Mouromtseff | That the court reactionists, headed by General Trepoff, are seeking in way possible to influence the discovery made by the Rech of a re- cent circular sent to the Governors, instructing them to have the “Black Hundred” organizations immediately dispatch to the Emperor protests against amnesty and the abolition. of | the death penalty.

The paragraph dealing with amnesty says that all great Russian historical | events have been graven on the peo-| ple’'s memory by the Emperor's acts of clemency toward prisoners and criminals, and consequently the upper house, although possessed of a feeling: of profound indignation at the con-| tinual crimes committed in the heati of the political struggle, has decided| to submit for the graclous considera-| tion of the Emperor the lot of those who, while giving way to their ir-| resistible desire for a speedy consum- mation of their aspirations, have not committed outrages on life or prop- tablished laws.

Smashes Siinfi Lamps on| Line Between Edom and Indio. ‘ LOS ANGELES, May 18.—Ten thou- sand dollars’ worth of Southern Pacific property was destroyed by a crazy| man named Hancock at Indio, in San Bernardino County, last night. The manijac smashed and burned every- thing that lay in+his path before he was captured. Of Hancock nothing is known at In- dio. He left there about 9:45 o'clock| last night, walking along the Southern | Pacific track, west toward Edom,) smashing all the switch lights on the way. Between Indio and Edom, a dis- tance of about twelve miles, which he made in quick time, Hancock shat- tered seven signal lamps. At Edom there was nobody in the roundhouse to interrupt his work of destruction and he sets fire to the building. It wsa totally destroyed and the flames spread to two boxcars on a siding, burning them, and also to the telegraph poles, ! When the poles fell all the railroad’s wires on that division were broken. The interruption of telegraphic ser- vice was the first intimation the chief! train dispatcher of the Southern Pa- cific in this city had that anything was! wrong. Immediately the com;:ua.ny‘ll wire to Chicago was brought into use and by that means Beaumont was reached and a speical engine and car were sent out from there with Con- ‘When Hancock saw the roundhouse, boxcars and telegraph poles in ashes! he continued his journey toward Palm Springs and Beaumont, looking for more destructible material. On the hill the engine met him, and, after a short, sharp struggle, Constable Carpenter subdued the maniac, took him aboard, bound hand and foot, and a few minutes later landed him in the Beaumont jail. A conservative esti- mate of the damage furnished by the superintendent of the Los Angeles division today places the loss $10,000.

Fuller was suspected of three; other murders, one dating back twenty years, but he could not be convicted of these. He is said to have had a) wife and several adult children in Cali- fornia. Gallihan and Fuller had been bitter foes for twenty years. In 1886 Fuller: caught Gallihan in the act of attack-' ing a 10-year-old girl and forced him,| a the point of a revolver, to desist.
