Dense Fog.
MANY CASUALTIES RESULT.

LONDON, Oct. GA fierce gale ragged
along the British coast Saturday and
Sunday, causing many casualties. The
wind was so strong and the sea SO high
that the channel boats were greatly de-
layed. The Warner lightship, while
being towed from Spithead to her sta
ton, broke away from the tugboat
when near New Haven and was driven
shorewards. A boat was lowered to
replace the towline, but aheavy sea
capsized it and four Of it's occupants
were drowned. The lightship made
leeway rapidly and vas Don driven
ashore. The loss to the owners Of fishing
vessels is large, many Of their boats
having been destroyed. At Sunder-
land, a life brigadesman, who had vol
unteered to assist in the rescue of the
crew Of a bark which had been driven
ashore ear there, tripped upon a rope
which had been suddenly tautened by
the pressure of the onlookers upon it,
and fell into the sea and was drowned.
A man who was fixing a sign in front
of a theatre in Sunderland was blown
into the street and killed. Much dam
age was done inland by the storm.

st. Paul Citizens Who Will BE Taxed on
Their Incomes.
ST. PAUL, Oct, 23.-In view of the re-
cent passage of a tariff bill embodying
a clause which will require the pay
ment Of a tax upon annual incomes Of
$4,000 Or more, an estimate has been
made of the number Of persons in this
city who will be required to pay such
tax and of the total amount which the
internal collector will annually receive
from st. Paul citizens under the opera
ton of that law. The estimate shows
that there are 1873 individuals and
81 firms and corporations in this city
who after Jan. / will be taxable
upon income. Among these are
10 persons and estates rated at
from $1,000, 900 to $40, 600, 900 each, the
list being headed by Frederick Weyer.
hauser and ]. J. Hill, estimated as be-
ing possessed Of $40, 900, 900 each. The
list contains the names of II women
and the estate of one woman, these be-
ing headed by Mrs. Mary E. Hale, who
is the w%ealthiest woman of the city,
and rated at 81, 500, 600. From these
sources it is estimated that the United
States treasury will be entitled to re-
celve annually somewhere between
100000 and 1926, 900.

Notwithstanding Contrary Reports, Army
Officers Will Still BE Indian Agents.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-While the
Indian officials at one time showed a
desire to appoint civilians as Indian
agents in place of army officers, where
army officers have been relieved, it has
now been determined to fill such vacan.
cies with army officers. The war de-
partment has been asked to designate
army officers to fill vacancies in each
case. During the summer there were
several instances where some dissatis-
faction was felt by the army officers
who were assigned to Indian agencies,
and the Indian officials were convinced
that the best interests of the Indians
would be subserved by having civilians
appointed. This has been changed
somewhat by the return Of Secretary
Smith, who is well aware Of the opin-
ions entertained by the president on
this subject. The law is rather ex-
plicit. and says that army officers must
be designated, unless, in the opinion of
the president, there should be civilian.
Before a civilian is appointed it must
be plain to the president that such &C.
ton is necessary. In cases where pres
ent vacancies exist it has not been
made apparent that army officers will
not be as good for the service. Several
civilian applications have been made
for the vacancies, but all the candidates
are doomed to disappointment.

An Attempt to Wreck a Great Northern
Train Near Garretson.
Sioux FALLS, S. D., Oct. 23.-It has
just become known that an attempt
was made last Monday night to wreck
the southbound freight on the Great
Northern railroad, between this city
and Garretson. Ties and rocks were so
arranged that the engine would run up
onto the obstruction and cause a wreck.
1t so happened that the train for
the south did not leave Garretson
until the train from the south had ar
rived. The engine on this train struck
the obstruction, tearing away part of
the pilot, but did not derail the engine.
The railroads detective has been work
ing on the case for a week, but failing
to find any clew to the would-be wreck
ers has notified the police, and in this
way the story Of the attempted wreck
became known.

Russia's Ruler Slightly Better, Despite

Russia's Ruler Slightly Better, Despite
Rumors Of His Death.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 23.-The dearth
of news from Liyadia occasioned the
widest rumors to circulate Saturday to
the effect that the zar was actually
dead, but that the fact was concealed
because the ;czarewitch had renowned
the succession to the throne and the
Grand Duke George, the cars second
son, had also died from lung trouble,
from which he has long been a sufferer.
These rumors were efectually silenced
by the issuing Of q bulletin at night
stating in substance that the car had
not been out of his bed during the day,
but that his general condition was I'M
changed. Sunday, however, the rumors
have been revived in an intensified
form. Sabbath leisure and the gather.
ering Of unusually large congregations
attracted by the
Special Prayers For the Gear
assisted in the growth Of the rumor and
speculation. It is everywhere recog-
nized that the doctors in attendance
upon the car have no hope Of his re-
covery, and that they are only devoting
their efforts to prolong his majesty's
life until the arrival of Princess Alix at
Yalta SO that her marriage to the czare.
witch may be celebrated before his
death. It is asserted that the physi-5
clans have been compelled to turn their
attention to the czarina whose mind is
said to have been seriously affected by
the strain of nursing her husband.
Saturday night the theatres were
full as usual and the restaurants were
crowded. The city bears its usual as.
pect, only the eager and excited discus
sion in all the public resorts
Indicates the Impending Evils.
The special services in all the
churches Sunday morning were we'll
attended. The reverence displayed
and the sincerity of the visitors show
how deeply the public mind is affected.
Sunday morning an unofficial dis
patch was received from Livadia stat
ing that the czar had passed a better
night and had been able to sleep a
little. This somewhat alleviated the
anxiety, although even the official bull
letins are now received with suspicion.
After this bulletin nothing was re.
ceived till 9 p. M, when another private
dispatch reported
A Slight Improvement
in his majesty's condition, also that he
had a better appetite. This was con-
firmed at II o'clock by the following
official bulletin:
During the past "a hours the en-
peror has had rather more sleep. His
majesty was up during the day as
usual and his appetite is rather better.
He is more composed. Otherwise there
is no change"
This bulletin is signed by the five
physicians in attendance upon his
majesty. The crowds that had long
and patiently awaited the issue Of the
bulletin read and discussed it with
evident relief and then rapidly dis.
persed.

were confronted with a notice that the

any information as to his present

Other pools are expected to suspend

the investors is running high. By the
books Of the Delaneys it is shown that
over half of the investors were women,
most of them domestics and washer
women, who fancied that they found

placed

and who, with their families were liv-

live upon the dividends and thus keep
their little capital intact. Many Of
them find themselves at the approach
of winter without a dollar. A warrant
is out for the arrest Of Washington
