THE TWENTY-SECOND YEAR. NO. 33. Hussey Could NEW SPRING BLOUSES. THE intense interest felt by the young girl in what she wears is almost painful, and the mother that fails to understand this phase in her daughter's development may make a sad mistake; either chide her unduly for vanity, or else pamper her until she becomes entirely absorbed in the matter of dress. The middle way is the sensible. At this age girls are peculiarly sensitive, and to give them a fair measure of content by all means endeavor to dress them so they do not feel out of place in "their set," perhaps never again will they have this same anxiety about clothes as at the period when it is about time to do up the hair and lengthen the skirts. But though remembrance of the time when we had this girlish longing after a complete and pretty wardrobe makes us sympathetic, on the other hand there is influence to lead us to warn elders strenuously to check any tendency on the young girl's part for overdress and inordinate display. We all see entirely too much of the high school girl's absorption in dress to the detriment of her studies and wholesome outdoor exercise; better she were clad in homespun and hob-nailed shoes than given over to French heels and silk peticoats. Enough of the sermon. Now for the fashions. Our illustration shows a couple of blouses that are among the newest of the spring modes for the demoiselle. The one worn by the standing figure is made of cream-colored wool; the front is fairly full, to hide any youthful want of curves; the deep collar is of the self-material and finished with stitching in green, blue or any color desired. The front part is arranged to form a charming little vest, buttoning down the center, and stitched to match the collar. A pretty feature of this model is the inner vest of soft white lawn; this can be easily removed for the frequent washings it will need, the blouse itself not having to Frocks for the Small Children SIMPLE AND PRETTY. THEY follow after the modes worn by womankind of larger growth. Features of those pictured here are the square neck and the effect of broad, full shoulders. If the little maid is plump, or if her slimness is a round slimness, cut the frock low in the neck and let her wear it without the guimp; but if she be painfully thin cover deficiencies by kindly incker. The suit for the older girl is made of pongee (which, by the way, is an excellent material to select for a child's frock), and is trimmed with hands and folds of self material. Pongee is silky, comes in beautiful shades, and is more durable than silk; also, it can be nicely laundered. The rough sort, known as Shanting, or imported, is the best wearing and most becoming. The other little frock is made of challis, a nice summer stuff, and washable. It has a white ground with light blue figure and the SIMPLE AND PRETTY T be cleaned nearly so often. The sleeves have much fulness at the shoulder, and at the wrist there is a trimming of strapped stitching. The other blouse is intended for dresser wear. It is made of white material—wool, silk, or soft satin—and the one from which the cut was copied had spots of turquoise-blue. It was piped with turquoise-blue silk, and the buttons used on the yoke and sleeves were covered with the same silk. Notice the box-placed sleeves, and the shape of the yoke. Either of these blouses may be made of soft chalis and have for trimming a pretty lace collar. Deep yokes and chemisettes are very pretty for misses, and at present are very popular. Crepe de chine is a suitable material for the young girl's best frock. A pretty design has soft folds coming from the shoulders and crossing in front. A deep girdle of soft ribbon, very long in front, is worn with this and fastens at one side with a knot and long ends hanging down. A chemisette of cream net, hand-tucked, is worn with this waist, and a little trimming of cream insertion may be used on the waist, though we prefer it without. The stock should be transparent, stiffened with light feather-bone. And, by the way, we might as well mention here that stocks for women and girls are to be very largely on this order the coming season; a very comfortable as well as pretty fashion. With such a frock might be worn this summer either a Charlotte Corday hat or light blue silk, or a soft straw trimmed with only a wreath of flowers; pink would be very effective with the light blue, pastel combinations are especially pretty for the youthful. Washable Japanese silks, which come in a variety of attractive colors and designs, are popular for evening frocks for young girls, and Chint silk is liked for elder sisters as well as children. The French silk and China silk is liked for shops will fail to take her into account. trimmings are of blue the shade of the flowers in the goods. Hair ribbon and stockings should match trimming. Speaking of styles for small boys, Buster Brown affairs still continue; whether the popularity is owing to the name or to the designs themselves it would be hard to touch. Both boys and girls are less fussily dressed than formerly, and everything chosen for them seems to be principally with reference to whether or not it will wash. A very sensible turn of fashion's wheel. White wool stockings for the small ones are much in vogue, and it is needless to say these articles have to be tubbed very frequently. But they are pretty, go well with dresses and "Buster Browns" of any and all colors. The stores are showing now some excellent additions to the child's wardrobe; bibs that have sleeves attached, or rather we may say they are half-attached, being sewn in only part way around. There are to be had over-alls of divers sorts, very sensible dark gingham slips for the creeping baby. Sashes are not so much in evidence as once; the small ones, if their mothers do not, seem really affected by the movement toward a simple life.

EVEN CATHOLIC Bishop Monaghan, and an Irishman, Too! Draws a Color Line. And In His Church—A Leading South- tnern Race Editor on Booker T. Washington—Over 100 Years Old -A. & M. College Doomed— Other "Race Doings" of Interest. Dr. Morris, recently, in Washington, said in the case of Booker T. W. washington: "It can be said that while his conservatism is of a kind which smacks of flunkyism, still he has un- questionably done his race and the country a service which in many re- sponses is remarkable in its effects." Booker T. Washington says, that the Negro who lives in a two-story house and is wealthy, is in no danger of being lynched. Poor talk—nothing in it. Money and material possessions are not the whole of life. The ques- tion of lynching is not so much a question of possessions as of character. Nothing can take the place of being a man—Dallas Express. White people attending St. Joseph's Roman Catholic church for Negroes, Wilmington, Del., were considerably perturbed when Fr. Glance, the priest in charge, read a letter from Bishop Moachaan announcing that the church is exclusively for Negroes. The whites have been attending St. Joseph's at times because it was convenient, and they were good contribu- tors to its funds. A recent decision of the United States supreme court ante Peonage will have much the same effect upon certain unfortunate Afro-Americans of the south that the emancipation proclamation had upon the race in that section. The constitutionality of the laws against peonage (slavery) has been sustained, with the almost certain result that federal authorities will be encouraged to renewed efforts toward the elimination of an abuse which rivals slavery itself in its horrors. Alexander Meade, who was born in slavery Oct. 24, 1789, in Greenup county, Ky., died in Toledo, Feb. 17, at the ripe age of 116 years, 3 months and 24 days. Mr. Meade ran away from slavery to Canada in 1849 and had a most eventful career. He re-entered his familial life, the last. In December, 1903, he went to live with his daughter in Toledo, and, in her cozy home, Mr. Meade spent the last years of his long and eventful life. Twice married. Mr. Meade became the father of 20 children, six of whom are still living. Booker T. Washington finds that his low conservatism does not tend to sustain him in the appreciation of that element of the south which, in former times, was loud in praise of him. True, his remarks about the Negro being immune from lynching who had certain riches and who Lived in houses of brick, were deserving of no considerable attention—were not even true—but certainly no one expected such a paper as the Atlanta Constitution to stamp the feathers off in his face of breeding. There is a lesson in all this the man of sense. It is this: Never sacrifice principle for expediency.—Dallas (Tex.) Express. While there was a little talk about our governor's desire to abolish the A. and M. college at Rodney, we have never seriously considered the rumor. However, it is an established fact that the trustees (?) have decided and ordered that the "Informer," a little school sheet, be discontinued and that the printing outfit be sold. The art of printing will no longer be taught at this school. It looks to us as if it was to be abolished by degrees. The paper certainly exerted an influence for good, and there is no excuse for destruction, hence our belief that the school is to be gradually undermined. Well, it's simply—figure on educating your children yourself, and when it is finally abolished, it will not put us completely out of business.—Vicksbury (Miss.) Pythian Blade. No one has ever questioned President Roosevelt's courage, and he recently proved his consistency by nominating Charles W. Anderson state commissioner of racing, and a politician, of New York, as collector of internal revenue for that district, the largest and most important in the country. Naturally there was glee in the south, for now the north would have a chance to see how it liked it itself. So, too, there was more or less, though somewhat incoherent, opposition in New York, for were there not positions enough in the south wherewith to reward colored republicans without forcing one upon the Manhattan Caucasian? On Monday, however, Anderson's nomination was favorably reported to the senate and on Tuesday it was confirmed. The northern commission has taken what he perceives what he would have called its medicine. Here endeth the incident and whatever lesson it may contain. * * * Incidentally Senators Platt and Depew, though they allowed it to be understood that they had not recommended Anderson, did not venture to block his confirmation. They remembered Crum and were wise, or at least prudent.—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Peonage, so called, is the condition of involuntary servitude, or compulsory service, based upon the indebtedness of the peon to the master. It was most recently brought to the attention of the country at large three or four years ago by revelations of the conditions existing in certain southern states. Federal laws forbidding any such practice were among the wholesome fruits of the reconstruction period and it is these which at last are sustained. They were made necessary by an attempt soon after the abolition of slavery to revive it in its essential features under the form of law. Debt slavery did not differ materially from that abolished by Lincoln and has prevailed somewhat extensively in the south for a generation. The practice was to arrest a Negro for debt, take him before a local magistrate and have him sentenced to work out his fine, not in a public institution, but on some plantation. It was easy for the planter to make overcharges for supplies and the like and keep the victim indefinitely in what was to intents and purposes a state of slavery. Nor was debt always involved. A Negro convicted and fined for some trifling offense was often turned over to some planter until his fine should be worked out. Practical slavery for an indefinite period was the result in this case as in the other. A Negro thus condemned who sought freedom by flight was run down and captured by the methods employed in recapturing runaway slaves. LONESOME AVE.

Cleveland, Saturday, March 18, 1905. THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. The Gazette is indebted to that excellent daily newspaper, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, for the splendid portrait of Charles W. Anderson, given in its last issue. The Gazette acknowledges the receipt of a pamphlet containing a number of interesting contributions on the reduction of representation in congress. It is published by the New York Age. Also one by Hon. A. H. Grimke, of Boston, on "Why Disfranchisement is Bad." It is issued from Cheyney, Pa., by the "committee of twelve for the advancement of the interests of the race." EXCLUSION A SAFE ALTER- NATIVE. We believe in the patriotism and loyalty of the republican party; we believe in its wisdom and fidelity to the constitution and we have no fear that the party or the present congress will stultify themselves by any act of legislation contradictory to the cardinal principles adopted during the period of reconstruction. The amendments are too well understood in spirit and letter to admit of any possible violation of the obligation entered into at the time of their adoption. We are fully satisfied that neither the president nor congress in their wisdom would tolerate a single invasion of the sacred rights guaranteed under the constitution. Any such encroachment would mean the subversion of the great measures upon which our government is founded and all the argument yet adduced to prove the unwisdom of the reduction of southern in substantiation of the validity of the claim that reduction of representation means repudiation of the fourteenth amendment. The promoters of the proposition to reduce southern representation have already expressed themselves in vindication of their present attitude touching this matter and of their firm adherence to the great principles involved. But we are not disposed to split hairs where there remain so many differences, without reaching a possible conclusion. We want something done, but done upon a fair and tangible basis. We want a vindication of the cause of justice and we believe in taking the initiative, Congress sees its duty and congress must act. The exclusion of all members from the defendant states seeking admission to congress would be a just and well merited course to pursue, even as well as judicious, until these states shall comply with our federal constitution. Every state engaged in this disfranchising business knows very well that it is an act of usurpation and wrong, an act of robbery and outrage, and that it was done in defiance of the national government, and that it stands out today as a challenge to the friends and advocates of an undivided union and equal liberty to the people. Knowing this, it behooves the congress of the nation to rectify and redress the wrongs imposed upon the government of the people. The defendant states have shown themselves disloyal to the government and deserve no recognition until they shall repeal those acts disfranchising American citizens on account of color. It comes to this, that since the matter of disfranchisement has been agitated with so much intensity of interest throughout the country, something must be done in justice to a wronged and suffering cause. The American government and our national congress can not afford to overlook the grave responsibility resting upon them to rectify such a crying outrage and such a gross irregularity which every day flaunts itself in the face of the nation. Americans dare not own themselves a race of cowards, they dare not suffer the wheel of government to be clogged, even in time of a terrible emergency. The crisis is at hand and it remains with the law-making power of the republic to assert itself and maintain the authority and honor of its administrative ability. To accomplish the higher and nobler ends of free government in compliance with the laws and the obligations of national duty, we urge the only safer alternative, to-wit, the exclusion of all members from such states in question. NO BACKWARD STEP. The American government, represented by a strong republican element in both houses of congress, will not stifly itself by any backward step. It cannot afford to do so, and so we do not believe in the possibility of a change so derogatory to the great, underlying principles of our national system. Development, growth and progress are the assuring elements which constitute the great machinery of government. Eliminate these and the government goes down. Without development there can be no growth, no progress; there can be no vitality, no life-giving principle upon which to administer the vast interests of a people struggling to better conditions. To establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to all the people and their posterity is the primary object which called into being the government of the United States. Will the conservators of the law and the administrators of justice allow a minority to lead the masses from these principles? Did the framers of the constitution mean what they so declared, and is not such a declaration worthy serious consideration of a patriotic and liberty-loving people? To promote and preserve good government is the highest duty of the citizen. Then is not this the foremost responsibility of everyone to diligently guard the institutions of the republic? The charge is both imperative and binding and he who shares in the benefactions of the government should exert his best influence in seeing that we receive not from the principles upon the nation was established. But ours is a progressive government and the people are stricly Christian in their profession. By all means our march should be onward and it should be the business of every citizen to give his support and influence in maintaining the composite interests of the state and nation. In stability, patriotism and character the country is not what the fathers designed it should be. The government is not operated along lines in keeping with those of the founders, yet it has undergone most radical changes for the better. The monster evil of chattel slavery has been eradicated and the spirit of untrammeled liberty pulsates the heart of the intelligent masses. But we are called to confront multiplied embarrassments, such as never before in the history of the country attended our national career. At home and abroad the situation has been changed. New problems offer themselves and the statesman of to-day is asked to assert and defend the principles of true government. If he is honest and loyal to the convictions of duty, the cause of the country is safe, but if he is mercenary, half back and unfathable to the real demands of patriotic duty, then the republic must suffer. If our chief executive and the high courts of the nation allow themselves to be handicapped by a prejudiced and disloyal minority and by a scheming and corrupt moneyed power, then danger, rank and foul, lurks in the pathway of the nation. Insurrection and riotousness, anarchy and mob violence are some of the elements which disturb the peace and prosperity of the country. The spirit of Negro hate and religious caste rankles in the breast of a disaffected and restless element, seeking to incite bad passion and assault against authority and law. Maddened and distempered factions conspire to paralyze the fostering arm of the government, while moving millions busy themselves in the accumulation of wealth and selfish gains. A strong foreign element is no less concerned in moulding a sentiment quite adverse to republican principles. A radical change has come over the affairs of the American people, until it seems that we have been hopelessly transformed. But the cardinal idea of government and public liberty, equal a deep root and eternal principle, without variability or shadow of turning. The government can take no backward step. Grand and unconquerable in its march its destiny is onward. But it must consolidate upon an adamantine base, it must reaffirm the doctrine of the fathers; it must ratify the principles of reconstruction, proclaim anew the teachings of Lincoln and Grant and elevate the races upon one glorious and universal plane of brotherly love and good will among men. It must be just and conserve the peace and happiness of all classes as well as the masses before the law. Granting that the nation has had its reverses and embarrassments incident to the spreading influence of the domestic institution, y under the guiding hand of benignan. Providence, a blessed and sublime future awaits the American people if they will deal righteously. Let us take no backward step. Another Good Jockey. Jockey Bonner gives every promise of developing into the new colored Archer of the American turf. He is certainly the best rider at the Oakland track at present and one of the few boys that can ride a waiting race. As a general rule "good horses" make good jockeys, but Bonner displays natural aptitude for the saddle, and has taken advantage of the opportunities presented. For the past decade colored jockeys have been in obscurity. There have been no obsessions with Mary Jane, Jonah Clayton, "Soup" Perkins and Felix Carr. In the older days, especially in the east, there were generally three or four colored boys riding in every race. Nowadays there is rarely more than one colored boy, and, if he shows any pretension to class, the white jockeys generally make it interesting for him. He is kept in a pocket, or forced to go around his field, despite the vigilance of racing officials. "Long Shot" Conley was frequently given the knotted end of the rope, as he was very unpopular with his brother piknik artists of the "Caucasian" race. Bonner appears to be a well-behaved and is popular with the white boys. The public that bets its good money, in consequence, many play Bonner as they did Felix Carr in the days of the old Bay district track—San Francisco (Cal.) Chronicle.

Apoplexy caused his death For 25 years Mr. Randall had been employed by D. P. Plasted & Son, of that city. He was secretary of Magnolia lodge, No. 15, district deputy grand master and a member of Crispus Attucks lodge, No. 4177, G. U. O. of O. F. Rimes, the news, notion and cigar storekeeper near the corner of Sterling on Central avenue, who attained considerate regard about a year ago, of the result of kicking Jim Grue's little six year old motherless boy, has sold his business and moved to the south side. Mr. Gray, who was seriously injured in the Pennsylvania wreck on the 3d, while enroute to the inauguration, is slowly convalescing. Many of our people refused to patronize Rimes as the result of the incl- dent referred to above, and doubtless caused his change of base. They simply did what all should have done and should do in such cases. All door to those who staid out of Rimes' store since the Gray boy afalr. The Sunday services at St. Andrews' as follows: Holy Communion, 10:30 a. m.; evening service, at which there will be special music, 3:30 p. m. The Women's auxiliary meets every Thursday at 1 p. m., in the basement of the church. Friday evening service and Bible study at 7:30 p. m. Some days ago about 60 children enjoyed a taffy pull in the basement. Out of this has come a kindergarten, which meets every Saturday between 9 and 11:30 a. m. Mrs. McEllroy, who recently moved to the city, has charge of this work. Mrs. Arnold and Miss M. Tolles assist her. The kindergarten is for children from 2 to 9 years of age. Excellent training will be given them. Rev. E. S. Daupin, a Lenten sermon at Asbulta this week will be held in other engagements. Five good, substantial church people have recently been admitted to the communion of St. Andrews', they all having been confirmed in other dioceses. Rev. Doan is now preparing a good class for confirmation which will be held some time in April. Mr. Wheeler, who is employed in Bell's barber shop on Central avenue near Sterling avenue, told a representative of The Gazette recently that when he approached the saloonkeeper at the corner of Central avenue and Laurel street, to rent the vacant rooms above his place, the saloonkeeper's reply was: "The Brewing company will not permit me to rent the rooms to colored people." Those of our people who patronize this saloonkeeper ought not to do so any more because he pays the money they spend with him to this very same brewing company as he purchases his equipment. We believe that the brewing company has never taken any such stand and that the saloonkeeper alone is to blame. Tell this to every man of the race who is seen entering that saloon. Directly across the street from him is a much nicer place of the same kind, conducted by Mr. Van Dusen, a member of the race. Therefore there can be no further excuse for patronizing such an individual as the one we have referred to. Pass the word along so that every one of our people in that city may become familiar with their business, and it will not be long before that saloonkeeper will change his tactics or will have to do as Rimes has been compelled to do—move to another section of the city. The bulk of his trade is from Afro-Americans. Where the Money Went. Mrs. Annie Boering's $5 check for the Old Folks' Hall was not received by George Myers, treasurer of the charity ball committee, until Tuesday —so George W. Johnson, also of the committee, informs us. The state attorney general last issue came from Chef William N. Alexander, on whose suggestion she made the gift. By the way, Myers disclaims having issued any of those personal checks paying out funds raised by the charity ball—so Johnson says. We have seen four checks issued by Willie Clifford on the Citizens' Savings and Trust Co., paying $75 to the Cleveland Grays, $25 to George Johnson, $11 to the Plain Dealer Publishing Co. and $7 to the Cleveland Grays. It seems, from the report sent The Gazette the first of the week, that one "Green" settled Dr. Thompson's bill of $33; that Clifford paid Undertake Regers $8; that Myers paid Undertake Regers $4.575 and the plumber, G. H. Herringham, $13.74 E. Reed paid the Cleveland Telephone Co. $18, the Cleveland Provision Co. $22.13 and the P. C. O'Brien Co. $65.71; and that others paid other outstanding bills. Whether with personal checks or not does not appear. Following is the itemized account—sent us of the indebtedness of the Old Folks' Home settled from the proceeds of the charity ball: Cleveland Tel Co.... Cleve. Gas Light and Coke Co..... Dr. W. H. Thompson. G. H. Herringshaw... Shafer & Suhr..... Cleve. Provision Co... P. C. O'Brien Co..... J. A. Rogers ..... Mrs. Stevens is said to have settled the following accounts for the committee: Housekeeper ..... Groceries ..... Milk ..... Carpet cleaning ..... Carpenter Insurance ..... Grand total expense.. Total receipts charity ball ..... Mrs. Anna Boering.. Grand total receipts Total cash balance $ 62 65 Turned over to the president of the board of trustees of the Old Folks' Home by the treasurer of the charity ball committee—according to the reports furnished The Gazette by him and published in our issues of February 25. March 4 and this issue. Some of the ladies, members of the board of trustees of the Home, felt and still feel, so they say, that the money should have been turned over to them and by them or their proper officers paid to the Home's creditors, and that it was an unfair reflection upon them not to do so; that this board did not give its vote in favor of the course arbitrarily followed by the committee, and the president and acting treasurer of the board (the latter at the request of a member or members of the committee). Therefore their aggrieved feeling. On the other hand, the committee's treasurer claims—so George W. Johnson tells us—that there was a欠钱 saving as the result of the first follow-up committee is claimed that when the debts of the Home were listed and given to Myers the amount shown to be due Undertaker Rogers was $100; that shown due the P. C O'Brien Co. $72,71, etc. However this may be, the fact still remains that there was an irregularity in the course pursued by certain members of the committee in paying bills independent of any proper request or permission of the board of trustees of the Home to do so. This can be easily avoided upon the next like occasion.

During the early portion of February, of this year, the Middle and Western States suffered severely with the intense cold and winter's storms. Trains were delayed, cattle suffered, and there was much general hardship. While this was the case, throughout Western Canada, now attracting so much attention, the weather was perfect. One correspondent writes: "We are enjoying most beautiful weather, the gentlemen are going to church without top coats, while the ladies require no heavier outer clothing than that afforded by light jackets." In contrast with this it is interesting to read in a St. Paul paper of February 13 the following, in double headlines, and large bold-faced type: "Warm Wave Near Arctic Zone, 'Calgary Much Warmer Than St. Paul. 'Balmy Breezes are Blowing in Northwestern Canada while people are freezing to death in Texas and other Southern States.' Warm in Canada: Freezing in Texas.

The movement northward is increasing wonderfully. The vacant lands of Western Canada are rapidly filling with an excellent class of people. The Government Agents located at different points in the States, whose duty it is to direct settlers, are busier than ever. They have arranged for special excursions during the months of March and April, and will be pleased to give intending settlers any desired information.

"The other thing," she remarked, the grocer, courteous, "but it isn't so good. Your little boy came in here yesterday for half a pound of both soap and cheese; that's the cheese." "The cheese," gasped the lady. "That accounts for the other thing, then." "The other thing?" came the reply. "Yes, the other thing is the right."

JAPANESE OCCUPY TIE PASS Meagre reports have been received from a Russian source of a fight eight miles south of Tie Pass between a Russian force under Gen. Mistchenko and a Japanese column the identity of which is unknown. The latter was repulsed, it is said, with a loss of 1,000 killed. The rumor that after the evacuation of Mukden 80 foreigners, including an American newspaper correspondent, an enemy ordered by Chinese is discredited by the correspondent in question reported to his paper on March 14 that he had been captured by the Japanese and was being taken to Kobe. A steamer arriving at Singapore reports having passed a squadron of 22 Japanese warships about 20 miles east of the entrance to the Straits of Malacca. Two Japanese cruisers and two auxiliary cruisers previously arrived at Singapore. Presumably these vessels are on the *ay westward* in both of the Russian second Pacific squadron, last reported in Madagascar waters. New Chwang, March 16.—The Japanese occupied Tie Pass Wednesday night. St. Petersburg, March 16.—The question of peace still engrosses public attention, but the attitude of the government apparently remains firm. The minister of railroads, Prince Hilkoff, in an interview declared he would welcome peace, but it was difficult to see how it was possible. To end the war under the present circumstances he insisted would be shameful. It is now definitely stated that Emperor Nicholas has approved the decision of the council of war to send Grand Duke Nicholas Nicholalevitch the means of putting a bullet in the trigues and jealousies among the generals of the army, both at St. Petersburg and at the front. Gen. Soukhomlinoff will be chief of staff. M. Kirkloff, one of the Associated Press Russian correspondents who was wounded at Liao Yang, continuing his description of the causes of the Russian defends has drawn a powerful picture of the complete, criminal lack of knowledge on the part of the Russians of the country and the enemy's movements and of the imprudent gossip and babbling which acquainted Japanese with every movement and before they were inaugurated. London, March 16.—The appearance of Vice Admiral Togo's fleet in the track that would be used in any attempt by Vice Admiral Rojestvensky to make for Vladivostok is the most interesting news of the day. It is not known whether Togo himself is with the fleet. According to the Daily Mail's correspondent at Singapore who visited the fleet, the officers landed and conferred with the Japaneese consul, and it was understood by the correspondent that the squadron would shortly sail again. The presumption here is that Vice Admiral Togo acquired some information regarding Rojestvensky's intended movements. Use of Salt Restored Life St. Louis, March 15. After being pronounced dead by two physicians and a nurse, Mrs. Charles A. Sweet, of this city, has been restored by the infusion of a salt solution into her veins and is now believed to be recovering her health. Five weeks ago Mrs. Sweet, suffering from gastritis, went to Hot Springs, Ark. On the night of February 13 she seemed to be dying and eventually her heart ceased beating. She was pronounced dead. A third physician, however, decided to try a salt solution infusion and there followed signs of animation. The operation was continued and Mrs. Sweet revived. Many Strikers are Reinstated. New York, March 14.—Traffic on all the elevated roads and in the subway was handled in a manner that failed to give adequate service during the rush hours Monday. People crowded elevated and subway stations, fought to board expresses and avoided front and rear cars. Service in the subway was irregular and at all stations the police and the employees were rendered almost helpless by the crowds on the platforms. Over a thousand strikers have been given their old positions. Peasants' Revolt Spreads. St. Petersburg, March 15.—The peasant movement is spreading to the northwest provinces. Serious disturbances are reported in the provinces of Vilna and Kovno, where the estates and property of government officials and others have been sacked and burned Editor Cannon is Excommunicated. Salt Lake City, March 15.—The controversy of ex-United States Senator Frank J. Cannon, editor of the Salt Lake Tribune, with the authorities of the Mormon church, an incident of which was the withdrawal of fellowship from Mr. Cannon by the bishops' court at Ogden, resulting in a day in formal order by the high council of the Weber stake of Zion in Utah, sitting in Ogden, excommunicating Mr. Cannon from the church. The action was based on editorials written by Editor Cannon assailing the policy of the higher authorities of the church. Will Ignore the Decision. San Francisco, March 15.—The law departments of the Southern Pacific and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railroads have reached an agreement respecting rates on oranges. They have decided to ignore the recent decision of the inter-state commerce commission, which decided that the rate of $1.25 on oranges from California to all eastern points was unreasonable and should be avoided, in other words, the railroads purpose to require the payment of the existing rate unless the orange shippers can find relief through the courts.
