WASHINGTON. July 1.-Mr. Theodore

worlds fair.

we also desire tAat they shall be treated
as goods in bond, except where we de-

Roustan replied, "but there is nothing

to send their wares here, and by show

you to lower your tariff duties in order
that you may be able to buy them. 1t

"Do you think the fair viii prove a

in his hand. Il was gSatly impressed

ecutive committee; Mr.. Bryan, who is
associated with him ON the committee,
is also good man. They are singular

there is Mr.. Palmer, the president of the

He is a great harmonizer of differences
The directors tell me that when they get

LONDON, July 1.-The Telegraph's
st. Petersburg correspondent declares
the harvest in Russia this year is likely
to be the worst ON record. He draws
narrowing picture of the results of the
continued drouth. Prices of cereals he
says, are rising hourly. Rye has never
before been SO dear. Throughout the
western, central and the greater portion
of southern Russia the outlook is dismal.
Ministerial reports say the winter crop
in south and east Russia perished by
frosts Famine is already visible in the
faces of the peasantry of Kostroma.
Disease has already broken out. The
only food is oatmeal mixed with tree
bark, or similar ingredients. In Kason,
among indigents receiving meals gratis,
are 146 noblemen and seventy-six
priests.
In other districts similar conditions
are reported. In the Jewish colony at
Rovnopol many people are dying of
hunger, and hundreds have to huddle
together, several families in one room
often, for the sake of warmth. Some
papers contain advertisements of chill
dren for sale. The government is tax
ing precautions against expected revolts.
Taxes are collected with the usual regu-
larity, and failure to pay is visited with,
severe fogging.

A BLOODY RIOT
Between Whites and Negroes
at Franklin, WASH,
During Which at Least 1000
Shots We're Fired.

Several Strikers Killed and a Number OF
People Wounded, Including Two
WOmen-CAused by the importation
of Negroes to Take the Place of tho
Strikers--MiIitia Ordered Out.
SEATTLE, Wash, July MATTERS &t
the Franklin coal mines have assumed a
still more threatening form, and Colonel
j. G. Haines will return to this city for
another company of militia to report at
once and to bring ammunition, camp
equipage and rations for weeks average.
Porter Robinson, one of the mine
bosses, was brought to the city Monday
by military guard, charged with kill
ing Tom Morris and Ed j. Williams,
leaders of Sundays riot.
The first authentic information con-
cerning the riot was received from
Franklin. At least 1000 shots were
fired during the riot, which lasted about
thirty minutes and resulted in the death
of Tom Morris, white striker, who was
killed instantly; Edward j. Williams,
who was shot through the abdomen and
died six hours LATER and the wounding
of four strikers, two women and one
colored guard.
Cause of the Trouble.
The trouble commenced with the re-
turn of the train from New Castle,
which contained number of Pinkerton
men who had escorted q lot of negroes
to the latter mining camp. When the
train had stopped, the white miners had
commenced firing upon fe negroes
camp. They were between two fires, as
the outside miners were situated ON the
flats below and on the hill above them.
The negroes went perfectly wild, and all
the efforts of the gaurds could not re-
strain them. They kept within the camp
lines and poured volley after volley upon
the miners on the flats, who replied with
equally as much vigor. The miners on
the hill kept up good fire, but were
answered shot for shot by the negroes.
Excitement ran high Monday, but three
companies, campod between the strikers
and negroes prevented further hostili-
ties

An Australian Who is Endeavoring to
Get Our Government Interested.
CANTON, o., July Frank Mel
bourne, who is attracting considerable
attention because of his alleged discov-
cry for bringing rain whenever he de-
sires it, is of Irish birth, but for years
past has lived in Australia and New
Zealand. There he discovered means to
bring rain, making his first successful
experiment in September of last year in
Queensland. In New South Wales and
New Zealand he also successfully oper-
ated. Mr.. Melbourne has a little frame
house on Franklin street, in which he
labors, scarcely taking time to eat, and
is devoted to his discovery. OF his in
vention he will not talk freely. He pro-
poses to have it patented, and until then
he could say nothing, further than that
it was an apparatus using chemicals and
acting on the atmosphere. He could
bring rain over a territory of 25O, 600
square miles. Melbourne Is endeavor-
ing to interest the government in the
matter, and is issuing circulars in which
he offers to conduct experiments in any
part of the country upon application.
Either he has made an important dis
covery or is exceptionally accurate in
predicting rain. Three times it has
rained when Melbourne said il would,
and some people are beginning to think
he has discovered q great thing. Mel
bourne is well bred and of scientific
turn Of mind, and impresses his auditors
with the idea that he is man of great
intellectual force. BE Is the guest of
his brother in this city.
