DYING BY HUNDREDS.
Terrible suferings in Russia from Gold

LONDON, Feb. ia dispatch from

what is known as Great Russia, says

below zero, and that there is terrible
suffering among the peasants. A num-
ber of men have been frozen to death on
the high roads, and SO intensely cola IS
it that birds drop dead from the trees in
which they have sought shelter. None
of the children III Penza are allowed to
go to school.
A quantity of grain for the famine
sufferers has arrived at Penza, but it is
impossible to distribute it among the
peasants in the surrounding country,
owing to the fact that nearly all the
horses have been killed for food or sold
to procure money with which to buy the
absolute neeessaries of life.
Five thousand horses have been killed
in PenZa alone, and it is estimated that
several million draught animals have
been killed throughout the empire since
autumn.
Typhus fever. smallpox and diphthe-
ria are decimating the inhabitants.
Around Penza 200 of the peasants have
died from these diseases.
In the governments of Samara, Sara
tov and Mini Novgorod the conditions
are far worse than in Penza. In those
three governments thousands of the
peasants have fallen victims to the hun
ger, typhus and the other epidemic dis
eases. In the governments of Charkov
and kazanx the typhus fever is especi-
ally terrible in its ravages. The inhab-
itants are dying off by the hundreds.
Whole families have been stricken by
the disease and have died, not single
member recovering,

LONDON'S SENSATION
Pltiful Scenes at the Hearing in
the Osborne Case.
THE FAIR PRISONER COMMITTED.

A Fashionable Crowd in Attendance
When the Case Was CaIted-Mrs.
Hargreaves' Tears Prevent the Ex-
preston of Sympathy She Feels for
Her Friend.
LONDON, Feb. 13.-Florence Ethel Os-
borne was brought from Holloway jail
to Bow street police court and arraigned
before Magistrate Sir John Bridge to
answer the charge of perjury. The
court room was packed.
In the crowd were large number of
ladies in the height of fashion. So eager
were some of these ladies that they
reached the court long before the hour
for the hearing, nothing daunted by the
unaccustomed character of the place.
Mrs. Osborne was attended by her
husband. She presented a most pitifrl
appearance. She was dressed entirely
in black, and when she was placed in
the prisoners dock she wept bitterly,
blowing her head in her hands so her
face could not be seen. Captain Os-
borne stood beside her outside the dock,
and held one Of her hands.
His friends insist that no disgrace
should be attached to him, and though
society DEGREES that he should suffer Tor
crime of which he knows nothing, they
express their determination to stick by
HIM. -..-- ....-- --.
Mrs. Harsrcaves' Sympathy.
When, during the course OF the hsor-
ing, the pearls which have been the
cause of all the trouble were produced
in evidence, Mrs. Osborne broke down
completely. Her body shook con-
vulsively, and from her eyes there
poured flood of bitter tears. Mrs.
Hargreayes herself was more than
touched by IL e grief of her friend. She
could only C rol herself by the great
est effort, ana she wept almost as freely
as the prisoner. She leaned toward the
dock and tried to whisper few words
of encouragement and hope to Mrs. Os-
borne, but her tears compelled her to
stop, and she buried her face i'll her
handkerchief.
Mr.. G. F. Gill appeared for the treas
ury. He pronounced the formal evil
dence of the perjury, and then called as
witness Mrs. Hargreave.
She told of how Mrs. Osborne, then
Miss Elliott, had visited her at Torquay
and went through the now familiar
story. The iewelry had been restored
to her, and all the costs incurred by her
| in defending the libel suit had been paid
| back to her.
The witness was then asked if she had
seen Mrs. Osbore since the latter had re-
turned to England and given herself up
! to the police. With every evidence OF
deep emotion Mrs. Hargreave said that
she had visited her at the jail.
Mr.. Sphinx, the jeweler, identified Mrs.
| Osborne.
After further evidence by Mr.. Sphinx
| and from witness from the Bank of
England regarding the notes signed by
the prisoner, the magistrate asked Mrs.
Osborne if she had any thing to say. She,
in very faint voice, answed no"
The prisoner was then formally com
mitted for trial.
The treasury prosecution of Mrs. Os.
borne is based on a charge of larceny IL
well as perjury.
