The fact that one can 90 to Cleveland,
remain there over four hours and return at

seem to be generally known BY some people
living along the River Division of the Cleve-
land and Pittsburgh railroad, but neverthe
less such is the case. The early morning
train arriving ss Cleveland at l0;4j a. m.
affords a splendid opportunity to the resi-
dents of all River Division points between
Bellaire and East Liverpool TO visit Cleve-
land or intermediate points on the Main
Line. The train returning leaves Cleve.

tween East Liverpool and Bellsire.

His statement Causes Her to Drop

LONDON, April 23.-The Morning Post
states that Russia claims that Mr.. Glad
stones statement in the House of Commons
in regard to Sir Peter Lumsden's report COM
promised the parleyiHgs between the two
governments and made it necessary for Rus
STA to terminate the discussion.
The Russian harbor of VIadivostock on the
sea of Japan has been closed and torpedoes
have been sunk to defend it. This action is
supposed to be due to England taking pos
session of Hamilton Island in the Corean
group.
Sir Peter Lumsden telegraphs that the re-
tirenent toward Penjdeh of the Russian Of
ficers who were proceeding to Herat re-
ported by him several days ago is now learn
ed to have been due to the receipt of mes
sage from the AmeeI that he was unable to
guarantee their safety.
NEW YORK, April 23.-A financial article
SAYS: ''It is reported that Russian merchants
are consigning wheat to the care of the Rus
sian consul at London and are evidently anx-
ious to dispose of their holdings before the
outcome of war may close English markets
against them. The increase of eight kun-
bred thousand bushels of wheat on passage
to the United Kingdom during the past week
is probably due to this movement.
VIENNA, April pa dispatch from Odes-
so says that the huge storehouses there have
been nearly emptied by the recent hurried
shipments of grain. Only six English YES
sells remain in the port and most of the large
number recently reported by Lloyds as be-
ing in the Black Sea have made their way
out. The value of all kinds of property is
falling, business contracts are cancelled in
every direction and general paralysis OF
trade is threatened.
