OG ont ee ee eee = The autocracy of the Romanotfs ang - the old order of things cease to exist In Russia. Emperor Nicholas has sur. rendered and Count Witte comes Into Power as ministerpresident with an Imperial mandate which will confer on the people fundamental civil liberties, “I am sure the American people who understand what freedom is, and the American press, which voices the wishes of the people, will rejoice with Yhe friendly Russian nation at this moment,,when the Russian people have recelyed from his imperial maj esty the promise and guarantees of Zreedom, and will join in the hope that the Russian people will wisely all in the realization of these liberties by co-operating with the government for thelr peaceful introduction. Only ‘thus will -t be possible to secure the full benefits of the freedom conferred upon, the people.” Count Witte, Russia's first premier, Monday night, sent the.above message to the American people. He had just .arrivea at his residenco on Kamment- ovrov prospect from Peterhotf, where in the Alexander palace the emper- er two hours before had given his final approval to a manifesto and to @ program which will forever end the rule of absolutism exercised by him and his Romanoff ancestors for three hundred years. . & Abdication Complete, , A simple sperusal of the manifesto ‘shows how complete is the emperor's abdication of his autocratic power. The very style of. the document 2s clear and devold of the verbose,vague and bombastic phraseology, whica heretofer has characterized his maj- esty’s manifestoes. It not only betrays real, authorship, but shows that the emperor at last has irrevocably bow- ea to the Inevitable. Hé does not con ceal the fact that the discontent and agitation ez his subjects have driven him to take this step and practically ylela overything—clvil liberty, the in- violability of person and liberty of conselence, speech and assembly. News Spread Like Wild Fire. ‘The news spread like wild fira throughout the city. The revolution. ists and active agitators generally de- elared loudly that the government's promises would no longer suffice and that the strike must be continued. In fact, an hour after the news became Known, the evolutionists took occa- sion to throw the first bomb In St. Petersburg used since the strike be- gan, The incident occurred near the polytechnic. school, but there was no fatality, Practically all classes, except the sovlalists and extreme radicals, however, read the document with de- light and amazement, declaring that it could not fail to rally the moder- ates to the support of Count Witte. By the irony of fate, while the strik- ers are clamoring for a constitution, it has been impossible to persuade the striking printers to resume work, and, therefore, not a single newspaper except The Offictal Messenger, print- ea the momentous document for dis- tribution. Arrangements have been made to placard the manifesto on everg dead wall In tho city. Full Text of the Manifesto. The following is the text of the im- perial manifesto: _ “We, ‘Nicholas, the Second, by the grace of God, emperor and autocrat of all the Russias, Grand Dvke of Fin- Jand, ete. declare to all our faithful subjects that the troubles and agita- tion in our capitals and in numerous] other places’ fills our heart with ex- cessiye pain and sorrow. * “The happiness of the Russian sov- ereign {s indissolubly bound up with dig il ET RCL Re IP RRR Sorrow of our people is ‘the sorrow of the sovereign, “From the-present disorders may arise great national disruption.

The wreck occurred ta @ cut while tho train was running at the rate of 59 miles an hour, and was caused by a lo6se rail. : ‘The train consisted of one mail car, one baggage car, one coach, one chair car,‘four tourist sleeping cars, two standerd Pullmans and one dining car, The passenger list was composed largely of colonization tourists. Nearly all the sleeping cars remain- ed on the track, and the forward cars bora the brunt of the shock. None of the passengers in the sleeping cars weré hurt. The day coach in front of the chair car furnished the great- est number of killed and injured. The great natural wall of rough stone into which the cars were thrown, tore the sides of the day coaches, and passey gers were grounded against the wall and_elther killed or badly injured. H. G. Rust, engineer’of the wreck- ed train, and his fireman, William DeLong, escaped injury, The locomo- tive leaped from the railg and ran 300 feet on the ties, finally stopping up right. .The locomotive was going 80 rapidly that it passed the rall in safe- ty. Tho mall car immediately be pind jumped the track and struck the side of the bluff, and the four cars fol- lowing plowed through the wreckage and shot against the high stone wall. os ss © & oe Rr SLAVS WILD WITH JOY, , Whole Emplre of Russia In Frenaled Delight Over Czers Gift of Liberty. A St. Petersburg special says: “Al! Russia Tuesday celebrated enthuilas- tlolly the emperor's gift of freedom, which the greater part of the peo- ple received with the deepest joy, though in St. Petersburg and other tities socialists ahd revolutionists or- ganized anttgovernment “demonstra- tions and red flag parades which, with the pacific manifestation, led, to a number of confilets between tho reds ‘and whites as the ant!-government and royalist factions ate respectively termed. On the whole, the day passed more quietly in‘the empire than had been expected, though collisions between the people and troops are reported from Paltovs, Kazan and Kishineff. In each of the two capitals, St. Pe- tersburg and Moscow, the day was one such as the Russians have nover before seen. The Slavic populace, which during the long war just ended and the anxfous yeriod preceding the announcement of the new era of con- stitutionalism, seemeg self-restrained and apathetic, gave Itself up fully to the exuberance of the moment, and spent the entire day In parades and assemblies, which, for the first time in the history of Russia, were freely per- mitted. Under the orders ot Count, Witte and General Trepoff troops generally were withdrawn from the streets of the cities, and the fullest rein given the people to,let out their enthusiasm In demonstrations, which, so Iong as they were not destritctive, were not interferea with, arly Tuesday morning, after a con- ference in which all the generals com- manding troops in St. Petersburg par- Ucipated, General Trepoff issued the following announcement, which was placaraed throughout the city: “The day of October 31, unfortu- nately, did not pass off without vio- lent encounters between the: differ- ent factions of the population as well as with the police and troops. “Recognizing the responsibility re- posed in me, I give warning that, ail attempts to disturb order will be ‘sup- pressed with the most peremptory and categorical measures. “TREPOFF.” TAMPA MEN DENY CHARGE. Protest Against Statements Published in Tobacco Journat. A Washington special says: A com- mittee of prominent citizens of Tam- p3, Fia., consisting of Representative S. M. Sparkman, former Representa- tive Robert Davis, D. B. McKay, edl- tor of a ‘Tampa newspaper; F. C. Bower, former mayor, and H. C. Mac: Farlane, called on Secretary Shaw and presented him a serles of resolutions recently adopted by the Tampa board of trade, denying emphetically certain statements lately published in a tobac- co trade journal in New York, allegitig fraudulent classification of Cuban leaf tobacco at Tampa in favor of the Tam- pa importers and against the govern- ment and against importers at other points, It was alleged that discrimi- nation Mad béen shown at Tampa ‘in favor of importers located in West Tampa and that ‘manufacturers have been coerced into buying factory sites from a brother of the collector and that they were subsequently re- couped for thelr purchage money by fraudulent discriminations ‘in their favor in the classification of their to- baveo importations. : The board of trade in itg resolu- tions’ and the committee declared that all these allegations are untrue. The resolutions also deny that there has been any more Uberal classification of Cuban tobacco at Tampa than else- ‘whikes.. TOP CRQP TO BE SCANT. Chilling Temperatures Cut Cotton Yield to Still Lowe Figures, The New York Journal of Com- merce publishes the last of its specia! monthly cotton reports for this sea. son, It deals particularly with condl- tlon and the amount of cotton picked, *Since last month's report the weath- er has been generally favorable: for picking and as a rule cotton, was mer keted rapldly about 10 cents, but some holders are waiting for higher prices. Frost has done but Ilttle damage in the Carolinas and Georgia, but * in nearly.all other states killing tém- Peratures have more or leis cut down the yield.

PLAN «DIRTY a Bond Grafiers Hatch Up New Move Against South: HOPE TO FORCE PAYMENT Scheme Is to Make Fake Gifts of Re- . pudlated Bonds to South American State and Depend on Result . of the Sult A New York special says: The committes of North Carolina bond holders ‘s planning a novel move by which It expects to compel North Car- lina, South Carolina, Georgia and oth- er southern states to redeem repudtat- ed bonds amounting’ to about $40,000,- 000 In the aggregate, Under the constitution of the United Btates a sult cannot be brought against one of the states by a citizen of exother state or a citizen or sub- Ject of any foreign state. Under the recent decision of the supreme court of the United States in the case of South Dakota against North Carolina, however, a government may recover against a state of the union upon its obligations. ‘The committee is now planning to transfer some of the bonds of the de- faulting states fot to another staté as South Dakota, but to a foreign state, the idea being that public sen- timent in the United States would In- duce the southern states to pay off the bonds if sult should bo brought by the foreign states. Venezuela and Colombia, it is an- nounced, have consented to accept a gift of some of the repudiated bonds and to bring actions upon them against the defaulting states. The gift of the bonds, however, ac- cordiag to B. W. Andrews, counsel of the committee, must be bona fide, the committee recently sent a letter to President Roosevelt suggesting that he urge the defaulting states to ar bitrate their debts. ROOSEVELT IN WASHINGTON, ‘President Arrives Safely at Home from Memorable Southern Tour. President Roosevelt went ashore ‘from the Dolphin at the Washington navy yard at 11:55 o'clock Tuesday and five minutés later he had left the yard for the white house in ¢ carriage with Mrs. Roosevelt and the trip was at an end which rounded out his tour of the entire country during his in- cumbency as president. ‘Two hours before the Dolphin redch- ed her moorings people began to gath- er at the navy yard wharf. For an hour an escort of marines, headed by the marine band, were In Une facing the: wharf. Mrs. Roosevelt arrived in her Jandau at 11:30 o'clock and had time for a drive around the yard, the points of interest of which were pointed ‘out by a naval officer. ‘When the Dolphin showed around Arsenal point and left the Potomac for the eastern branch the firing squad manning the saluting battery got ready for action. Ten minutes before the landing was made a salute of 21 guns was fired from the yard battery and immediately answered by the Dolphin, < During this time the president, Sec- retary Loeb and Surgeon General Rixey stood on the upper deck of the stern. The president wa8 much Inter- ested in the morning papers which had been put aboard from the police boat Vigilant, which acted as escort to the Dolphin on her way to the wharf.

After firing the first shot and finding his victim not geite- dead, at- other shot was pumped into the body of the prostrate- men. After being shot the: first time, Gres- sitt pleaded with Coker not to fire again, and his wife, who had tushed -tom the house when the first shot 728 fired, also pleaded with the sup- posedly insane man to spare her hus- band's life. Coker, before firing the socénd time, went up to close to his vectim and poked the muzzle of tho un into his body. Gressltt died instantly after receiving the second ot After committing the deed Coker shouldered his gum and went to his own home. He telephoned what he ‘ad done to relatives, and requested them to send an officer to his home, Greenwood, to arrest him, and an officer accordingly hurried to the scene. ‘ As he approached the Coker home, jhe report of a gun rang out, and, on forcing an enrance into the house, he found the body of Coker, lying in a pool of blood o1 the floor, evidently having taken his own life. The officer also discovered in the house the Gead bodies of Mrs. Coker and her two small children, aged & and 9 years, both girls. Mrs. Coker and the chidren had been shot, Killed and lafd out, and money placed on their eyes, showing that they hed been deliberately murdered by the husband and father before the at- tempt to kill Gressitt was made. Coker left a note in which he im- plied that he had killed his wife and children to save them from disgrace, and gave the name of Greasitt and his brother Jack as the cause of his trouble, One of the most peculiar phases of the quadruplex tragedy is the busi- nessiike manner in which the man wen, about his deadly work. He says in.h{3 note that the throats of his wife and littie girls were cut with a knife at Qo'clock at night, while they slept in thelr beds, that the children were easy to Kill, but that his wife died hard.

Mai. Cumming's Opinion. Major Joseph B. Cumming of Augusta, Ga., ex-Conferderate officer and former member of the Ku-Kluk-Klan, writes to the Augusta Chronicle of Tom Dixon's indecent and horrible drama, "The Clansman," "I regard this reverend gentleman's work in The Clansman as not only nasty—like all his writings—but fendish and worse still cowardly. I say cowardly, because it tends, if indeed it does not seek to incite the more lawless part of our people to deeds of violence and cruelty to a defenseless class of our population who need and by their general conduct deserves protection and encouragement. May a blight follow the dirty money which the Reverend Dixon is putting in his pocket by his nasty play. It is gratifying to those of the younger experience who had no actual experience in the trying times upon which Dixon's play is based to have their opinion of it confirmed by an Confederate soldier and former member of the Ku-Kluk-Kian. It is also gratifying that so large a majority of the newspapers in the cities where the play has been given condemn it so unreservedly and sweepingly. It shows that there is a healthy and progressive sentiment in the south, which does not approve of any effort under whatever pretext to revive and rekindle feelings of racial and national hostility.—Spartanburg (S.

The Troth was Plighted One of the most brilliant functions in our society circle among our people that has transpired in recent years was the marriage of Miss Addie A. Lyons to Mr. Samuel A. King, at the home of the bride 628 W. Boston street on Wednesday evening of last week. On this occasion the beautiful and spacious home was most tastily decorated, art skill and science vied with nature in their efforts to bring about the most desired effects.

At the melodious and well toned strains of the piano presided over by Mrs. Fora Mitchell there came the bride a personification of supreme grace and beauty, lightly resting on the arms of her father Mr. L. L. Lyons, following these were the family of the bride, mother and sisters. The services were pathetically solemnized by Rev. S. T. Redd of Ezra Presbyterian church. The costume of the bride has been the subject of the most favrable comment. The bride is from one of the best families in city. The groom is one of our popular mail carriers, and is regarded as one of the leading young men. The presents were rich, varied, useful and from far reaching distances. They have the congratulations of their many friends and sincere hope for their futur happiness. Church Wedding? The marriage of Mr. John Whitfield and Miss Julia T.

Gray, of Calhoun, Ga., writes: "My wife had a very aggravated cough, which kept her awake nights. Two physicians could not help her so she took Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, which eased her cough, gave her sleep, and finally cured her."

REBATE EVIL IS "SCOTCHED." Fining of Beef Packers Has Modify ing Effect on Agitation for Rate Regulation. Washington, October 24—The conviction and fining of four members of the firm of Schwarzschild & Sulzberger last week, for accepting rebates, forms the chief topic of discussion here among the returning politicians. Praise for the president and the department of justice is coming in from all over the country. It appears to be the general opinion that the rebate evil is effectively scotched. A successful precedent has been established in rebate cases, and hereafter, it is alleged, the government's path will be comparatively easy in obtaining similar convictions if future cases of this kind arise. The general belief as to the result of the fining of the packers is optimistic. The current opinion holds that it will have an immediate and lasting effect in curbing those large shippers who demand discriminations in their favor from the railroads. If the government is on the alert to enforce the law and the large shippers will be fined $25,000 whenever they are discovered accepting rebates, the rebate will soon become as defunct as the great auk. And rapacious shippers will be further impressed by the fact that there is every reason to believe that the government will not be satisfied by the payment of a fine for a second offense. The belief grows that the decision of the United States district court in Chicago will have a great effect in modifying the demands of those who are agitating for rate regulation. Conservative opinion in Washington regards the conviction of the packers as an effective demonstration of the contention that existing legislation is competent to deal with unjust rate discriminations and as supporting the view that there is plenty of law on the statute books, if the government will only see it in enforcement. Those who opposed additional railroad legislation before the senate committee on interstate commerce at its special session last spring are pointing to the fact that they reiterated over and over again that existing laws, actively enforced, are adequate and are saying "I told you so."

"I began to use Postum because the old kind of coffee had so poisoned my whole system that I was on the point of breaking down, and the doctor warned me that I must quit it. "My chief aliment was nervousness and heart trouble. "Any unexpected noise would cause me the most painful palpitation, make me faint and weak. "I had heard of Postum and began to drink it when I left off the old coffee. It began to help me just as soon as the old effects of the other kind of coffee passed away. It did not stimulate me for a while, and then leave me weak and nervous as coffee used to do. Instead of that it built up my strength and supplied a constant vigor to my system which. I can always rely on. It enables me to do the biggest kind of a day's work without getting tired. All the heart trouble, etc., has passed away.

To which he replied, 'If you will wait until I hew this yew, I will go with you to look for your ewes.'" After an attempt, the Frenchman admitted his mistake.

(At44'05) When a physician tells a woman, suffering from ovarian or womb trouble, that an operation is necessary it, of course, frightens her. The very thought of the operating table and the knife strikes terror to her heart. As one woman expressed it, when told by her physician that she must undergo an operation, she felt that her death knell had sounded. Our hospitals are full of women who are there for ovarian or womb operations! It is quite true that these troubles may reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but such cases are much rarer than is generally supposed, because a great many women have been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound after the doctors had said an operation must be performed. In fact, up to the point where the knife must be used to secure instant relief, this medicine is certain to help. The strongest and most grateful statements possible to make come from women who, by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, have escaped serious operations. Margrite Ryan, Treasurer of St. Andrew's Society, Hotel English, Indianapolis, Ind., writes of her cure as follows: Dear Mrs. Pinkham: "I cannot find words to express my thanks for the good Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did me. The doctor said I could not stand the strain of an operation and made up my mind I would be an invalid for life. Hearing how Lydia E. Pirkman's Vegetable Compound had saved other, other, other, and in less than four months I was entirely cured, and words fail to express my thankfulness." Miss Margret Merkley of 775 3d Milestone, Millywakee, Wis., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham: Loss of length, extreme nerveness, service shooting, pain through the pelvic organs, cramps, bearing down pains and extreme irritation compelled me to seek medical advice. The doctor, after making: an examination, said that I had ovarian trouble and ulceration, and advised an operation as my only hope. To this I strongly objected and I decided as a last move, to try Lydia E. "To my surprise the ulceration healed, all the bad symptoms disappeared, and I am once more strong, vigorous and well; and I cannot express my thanks for what it has done for me." Ovarian and womb troubles are steadily on the increase among women —and before submitting to an operation every woman should try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and write Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. for advice. For thirty years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been curing the worst forms of female complaints, all ovarian troubles, inflammation, ulceration, falling and displacement of the womb, leucorrhea, irregularities, indigestion and nervous prostration. Any woman who could read the many grateful letters on file in Mrs. Pinkham's office would be convinced of the efficiency of her advice and Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. ae Ee
