The Dead Gar.

The Dead Gar.
A!czsuder II, whose life termi-
mated p horribly the 18th instant,
was born april II, 1878; he was
married to q daughter of the Duke
OF Eesse April 16, lS41; and as
cended the throne of Russia March
2, 1856. He was 8 man of kind
disposition, but lacking in moral
courage and in frmness. His de-
sire was to introduce a more liberal
government in Russia and to ame-
liorate the condition of the people.
His chief effort in this direction
was the liberation, shortly after ne
became Car, of 23,O0O.0OO serfs or
slaves, deed that will give him a
place in history as one Of the great
est benefactors of the human race.
He gave to the people q taste OF
liberty, which led them to demand
more. He excited hopes in the
minds OF the people that he could
not, or did not meet. Much dis
satisfaction arose; secret organiza
tions were formed throughout the
Empire whose object was to resist
tyranny. Efforts have been made
several times of late years to take
the lie of the Gar. Since 1866 he
has lived in constant terror of as
sassination.
The first attempt upon his life
was made April 16, 1866; q man
| named Karakasof shot st him with
| a pistol as be was entering his car
riage.
The second was in Paris June 6,
1867 he was riding in carriage
with two of his sons and the French
Emperor, Napoleon III, when a
Pole named Berezowski fired q pis-
tol at him; in attempting to fire
the second time the pistol burst.
The third attempt was December
l, 1878; a mine of dynamite was
exploded under q railroad train
near Moscow in which the Gar
was supposed to be travelling. The
parties who had prepared the mine
were familiar with the movement
of the trains; a mail train was to
have passed over the road ahead OF
| the Czar's, but the Cars train
| passed the other before reaching
the mine and went over first. The
would be assassins thinking it was
the mail train allowed it to pass
unmolested, but when the mail
train reached the place the mine
was exploded by means of electrici
ty and the train was blown to
atoms.
The fourth attempt was April IA,
1879; while taking a walk he was
fred at four times By q man named
Skolof, who stood in q few PAGES
of him.
The fifth attempt was February
II, 1880; the dining hall Of his
Winter Palace was blown up by
dynamite; eight men were killed
and forty i've badly hurt. The
dynamite hal been stored in the
cellar and was exploded by means
OF electricity. The explosion oc-
cured just as the Gar and the
royal family were entering the hall.
The sixth and successful attempt
was made March II, 1881.
The new Gar, Alexander III,
was born March 10, 1915; he mar
ricd Princess Dagmar, Of Denmark,
sister Of the Princess Of Wales. He
is more popular than his father
was, and promises to make a good
ruler.

NEW YoRE, June 6.-The Commeci7l
Bulletin says, notwithstanding last satur'
days bank statement and the prospect OIL
one for the coming Saturday being favor
able, the money market to-day was easy
at about three per cent for call loans on
stocks. Our reason for expecting the
bank statement for this week may be un'
favorable is, large amounts OF money are
to be sent from here to Philadelphia u
the proceeds OF the sale Of the Pennsyl
vania railroad collateral trust four per
cent bonds, Sl0,000,000 Of which have
been Issued. The Pennsylvania Railroad
Company wants this money to pay the
Boston and other holders ot Philadelphia
Baltimore & Wilmington railroad stock,
q majority OF which was recently bought
by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
When received at Philadelphia this
money, OF the msin part Of II, will be sent
to Boston, unless the new collateral trust
4 Der cent bonds are taken there In prefer.
ence to the money. The transfer Of this
rather large amount OF money on other
accounts may temporarily influence the
money market, but every one knows that,
taking the Summer as whole, the pros
poets are encouraging for an extremely
easy market. Speaking otthe Milwaukee 4
st. Paul the same paper says: A rumor was
current, but not confirmed, to the effect
that the company had decided to increase
its common share capital 20 per cent and
allow the holders Of the common stock 10
take new shares at par.
