The Russian Consul has hed the Czar’s secret police on her trail ever since she came to this country in March. He had started pro- ceedings for en inquiry into her sanity and had issued orders that she should sive up her ambition to become an actress in this country and should re- turn to Russia immediately. ‘The young woman, who had apent every cent she had brought: to this country and had pawned her jewels to meet the expense of living at the Knickerbocker an@ keeping up appear ances befitting her rank, was appar- ently resigned.

Then she adjusted @ heavy vell about her face, entered the cab alone and told the chauffeur to go to Broadway, where she would sive him further directions. So far as the hotel people could see, the cad was not followed. Two telegrams were taken to the hotel for the princess to- day, but were mot accepted by the clerks.

KNOCKS OUT THE SLANKET Doesn’t Refute Charges, Only Gives Opinion of Himself, Says Chief Inquirer. “Stand by the Mayor! He's the bpst Det we've got. Waldo doem’t count, but the old man must not be hurt!” Coming straight from Fourteenth wrest to-day to wavering Tammany Aldermen, these directions were said to have insured the decisive defeat of the Curran Committ: report, recom- tending the dismissal of Commissioner Waldo, when Chairman Henry H. Cur- ran offers his year’s study of the Police Department to the full Board of Alder- men to-morrow for approval, The Tam- many and Fusion Aldermen gathered tn the rival leaders’ rooms in the City Hall for final conferences. The Fusion- iste privately concede that the report is beater. It ip not so much that Tammany cares for Waldo, one of the Aldermen sald, as that Tammany sees in the Mayor a fighting chance for re-election, and the tiger would not provoke Mr. QGgynor to jump the Mayoralty hurdles at this critical moment, CURRAN DECLARES: WALOO RE- FUTES NOTHING. ‘Minority Leader Dowling would not say that he has the Fusionists “licked,” dut his activity, his conferences with the Mayor and the unanimity of view TWO-CENT RATE. One of the notable outcomes of these Geciaions is to knock out blanket two- cent fare when two- cont fare law because conditions are not the same for all raliroads alike and what might be reasonable and just to {One would not be fair to another. In the West Virg.nia case & two- cent law was in question. The Su- preme Court sustained it solely because as applied to the Chesapeake and Ohio Ratiroad it is not conflecatory. If an- other ratiroad had been ecacerned hav- ing @ifferent conditions that would make such a rate confiscatory the de- ciaion might be reversed. This confiscation principle was enunci- ated in deciding the Missouri cases. Eighteen ralircads running through that State fought the enforcement of State regulating commission rates for intra- tate traffic. The Sup:eme Court to-day upheld the State rates in thirteen cases, but in five others declared that the toads involved could not stand the re- ductions imposed without having their property confiscated. Most of these lat ter lines were small local roads, the only one of prominence being the Chi: cago Great Western. ‘The decision holding the rates confis- catory to the Chicago t Weatern ‘was made to apply, by virtue of stipula- tion between the State and t! roads to the Quincy, Omaha and Kansae City Ratlroad and the St, Joseph and Grand Islands Railway. The Court held the rates valid as to the B8t. Louls Southwestern, the Missouri Pacific, the St. Louls, Iron Mountain and Southern, the Wabash, the Chicago, Milwaukee and 8t.

AT ODDS OVER $2,000. Co-Informer Held Money Put Up as Bail for Zelig After Gangster’s Death. Since a few minutes after midnight on Saturday morning, when an at- tompt was made by a wizened little knife wielder to kill Bridgie Webber, the gambler and one of the quartet 0 informers against-former Police Lieu- tenant Charles Becker, detectives have been using every endeavor to obtain all the facts concerning the bitter enmity between Webber and Harry Vallon, another of the un- savory four whose testimony helped to put Becker within the shadow of the electric chair. ‘This enmity, beginning at the time that ‘Webber and Vallon, together with Jack Rose and Sam Gchepps, were held as witnesses in the West Gide Jail, leading to a personal encounter between the two men there and culminating in a sudden move on the part of Vallon to foreclose & mortgage on Webber's Gullivan County farm, came to a fighting issue just five days before Webber got the knife thrust in the back as he was walking early Saturday morning from Sam Paul's Cafe Continental on Second avenue to the subway station at Astor Place. FEUD BEGAN OVER FARM WHERE GANG SPENT WEEK-ENDS. ‘The full story of this bitter hatred between the two informers, having, as It does, a significant bearing upon the attempt on Webber's life, runs this way ‘A very handsome farm near Fatis- burg, Sullivan County, stands in tho name of Charles Webber, # brother of Bridgie, though Bridgie Webber 1s known to be the real owner. Before the murder of Herman Rosenthel this farm was the favorite week-end pil- grimage point for Webber, Sam Schepps, Big Jack Zelig, Rose and all whose names were linked subsequently with the murder of the gambler. Before the Rosenthal murder Charles Webber borrowed $1,000 from Vallon e him @ mortgage on this farm ity. At the time Big Jack Zellx Jailed on the charge of carrying led weapons, his arrest arising out of a shooting in Chinatown, Zelig sent word to Charles Becker, as the testi- mony in the trial of the latter brought out, that he must be balled out imme- diately. The National Surety Company went on the bail bond of $10,000 and was guaranteed by private donations of several of Zella’s frien Bridgie Webber put up #,000 and Harry Vallon's name stood opposite a $2,000 guarantee. It was generally known among the select circles in which Vallon moved that he didn’t have @ penny to bless himself with, and that Webber had loaned him the $1,000, just so that he could “make showing” before his friend Big Jack. VALLON HELD $2,000 AND LAUGHED AT WEBBER. When Zelig was shot dead by “Red Phil" Davidson last summer, Webber and Vallon were then being held as witnesses in the eBcker trial. Vallon then instructed Bernard Sandler, bis counsel, to recover the §2,000 he hed “contributed” to the ball bond of Zell and after the bond was vacated by an order of the court, Sandier turned over the money to Vallon. Then came the break between Web- ber and Vallon. Webber instantly claimed the $2,000 that @andler had re- tfrned to Vallon, saying that Vallon knew perfectly well that the money was in reality his and that he had only loaned it to Vallon in order that he might get his name among the contrib- utors to the Zellg bail, Vallon, the money in his pocket, laughingly told Webber to collect if he could. Then the ¢we came together in the corridor of the jail and fought all ov the floor, Jack Rose and Sami Schep: had to pry them apart. Though the rumor spread that the two informers had quarretied, the real cause of their enmity ie here revealed for the fret time, Very aries G recently Vallon demanded of Webbder that he return the Special for Mend: agen e Ages ti lawyer, Sandler, to bring forecl Proceedings in the Supreme Court al Monticello, the county seat of Sullivan County.

Lieut. Hennessey and Detective Har- vey of the Fifth street station, who are on the trail of Webber's assallant, in a lengthy interview with the injured man yesterday, obtained certain infor+ mation which they believe will be of material ald to them, Webber insists he did not know the man who stabbed him, though the detectives have information of recent happenings in Webber's life which points directly to) one of two men as the one who tried to assassinate the little gambler. Webber told the detectives he did not realize he had been stabbed until “Dol- lar John” Langer, who acc him from Sam Paul's new cafe on ond avenue to the subway place, saw the hilt of the knife sticking from his back, after the under-sised “kid” who had done the stabbing dis- appeared in a tenement doorway mid- ray on the block of Eighth street be ‘ween Second and Third avenues. ‘The wounded man also insisted thab his assailant must re been seme youth of the neighborhood who sought notoriety and the gratitude of some of “thy boys of the avenue” by ‘Webbe: FLT SECURE WITH EGCORT OF “DOLLAR JOHN.” ‘The detectives find one of the pusaling features of the case in the circumstance that “Dollar John” was with Webber when the attack was made.
