Persistant Rumors of Russian Ultimat
UNI TO Great Britain.

st. Petersburg, April 14.-(By Assoc
ciated Press -The czar and czarina
started last evening for Moscow. Ex-
traordinarily persistent rumors are
currenr in Moscow that on Russian
Easter Sunday the czar will issue a
manifesto containing an ultimatum to
Great Britain demanding that she cons
clude peace with the Beers forthwith
under threat of occupying Cabul and
Karat, if Great Britain fails to comply.
This report is connected by some per-
sons with the fact that no reservists
are at present allowed to take unlimit-
ed leave. but probably the orders to-
reservists are connected with the pros
jected summer maneuvers in the Gems
trail provinces in which 100000 troops
will participate and at which Empe-
ror William is expected to be present.

ooNGER DENIES THE REPORT.
Did Not Act Jointly With other Powers
Makes REPRESENTATIONS.


Washington, April 14.-Mail advices
received by the state department from
Edwin S. Conger, United States min-
lister at Pekin, show that he has not
been acting jointly with the represent
.atives of other powers to compel the
Chinese government to suppress
the Boxers and other an.i-foreign So
cieties.
He has been making vigorous repre-
sensations to the tsun-li-yamen in be-
half of American missionaries and
their interests, but, so far as the au-
thorities are informed, he has not
threatened that the United States
would land troops in China should the
Boxers be allowed to continue their
operations in China. Such threat, it
made. would certainly be disavowed by
this government.
The authorities are informed that
the German government has made rep
reservations to the tsung-i-yamen, and
it would not be surprising if it had
threatened to protect foreigners by
force in case China was not able to
do SO.

OBITUARY.
Thomas RIulIaly.

On last Saturday occurred the death
OF one of the real pioneers of this coun-
~, Thomas Mullaly, at his home east
of Blakesburg. He was born near
Waterford, Kilkenny county, Ireland,
May L, 1870. When a youth of IL he
came to America, locating near Lex
gington, Kentucky, where on May II,
1854, he was united in marriage to
Margaret Canning of that place. To
this union ,tsiN children were born,
Mrs. .. Hedel, Edward Mullaly, Mrs.
y. p. Thompson, Mrs. John LaFollette,
Of thisf county, and Mrs. George Van
( Cleave, of Kansas City and Mrs. G. nj.
WISE, of Herington, Kansas, all of
Ehom are living and with his faithful
fwife were constanb attendants at his
bedside during his last illness. In the
spring of 1855 the deceased with his
wife, came to Wapello county, settling
on the farm which was his home when
he died. The funeral services were
conducted Monday from ST. Patrick S
church and the body was laid to rest
in Calvary cemetery. The text was
taken from John $3.50: sThey that have
done good shall come forth unto the
resurrection of life.'' Forty five years
on the land which he redeemed from
the wilderness, nearly half a century,
his life passed in one community and
not an enemy in the world. He died
IN the happy and full assurance of
redeeming love and rest which Christ
shall give. He came to his grave in a
full age, like a shock of corn cometh
in its season.
