Thirteen Inch Gun Exploded.

Pensacola, Fla, Feb. l9.-A big ID inch
gun exploded on the battleship Kearsarge
while the ship was at target practice off
Key West. The gun itself and the super
imposed turret were badly damaged. The
battleship is at present at anchor here,
awaiting orders from Washington. The
ships officers are in quandary as to what
will be the outcome of the accident
whether the Kearsarge will be ordered
home for repairs or whether the captain
will be instructed to proceed on his cruise
in southern waters without the gun. The
general impression here is that the Kear-
sarge will be directed to continue her
cruise

Quick Action.

st. Petersburg, Feb. lS-The finance
minister, NJ, DeWitte, has proved his abil-
ity to hit quick and hard. He was evil
IDENTIFY prepared for reprsals before Secre-
tary Gage took final action. NJ. DeWitte
sent to the senate for publication an
ordinance levyng 80 per cent increased
duty on the most important American inn
ports into Russia The ordinance was
published today in the Official Messenger
and becomes effective March |. This ac-
ton is greatly regretted in American cir
cles, and Americans anticipate much harm
therefrom. Well informed Americans do
not believe the supreme court will sustain
the claim that Russia pays a bounty on
sugar, directly or indirectly, and regard
the action taken as hasty, though not UNI
expected. 1t is believed that little harm
would have resulted to Russian interests
if the action of the court had been
awaited.

Cassini Learns of 1t.


Cassini Learns of 1t.
Washington, Feb. lS.-Count Cassini,
the Russian ambassador, this evening re-
celved a cablegram from the Russian for
eign office confirming the report of the is
sue OF the decree imposing increased duties
on certain American imports into Russia,
and took steps to inform the state depart
ment accordingly. 1t is realized that
grave crisis has been reached in the trade
relations of the United States and Russia.
The immediate effect of the Russian de-
cree, when it becomes operative on March
|, will be to increase by 80 per cent the
duty on American machinery, steel and
iron goods. These goods already enjoy
two separate reductions, 30 per cent being
taken off from the general and 20 pc,
cent from the conventional duties. The
articles referred to in the Russian decree
are machinery and tools of every kind,
manufactures and products of cast iron
and steel. Roughly stated, the United
States is said to nave exported goods of
this description to Russia last year to
the amount of about $30,OOO0O0. The adj
dition of 90 per cent to the duty will, it is
thought, prove practically prohibitory.
The action taken means that the Rus
sian government will not concern itself
with a test case nor await the issue of such
case. However, there is an expectation
that the American importers of Russian
sugar will make the fight i'll their own
interests. Some cargoes of Russian sugar
are now ahoat and on the way to the
United States, where at least one is due to
arrive i'll the next 10 days. 1t is not
doubted that the consignees in the United
States will, rather than pay the counter
vailing duty, which would make it impos-
sible to compete with other sugar make up
test case.
The text of the Russian order is as
follows:
AN order of the Russian minister of
finance directs additional tariff OF 80 per
cent net on articles included in para
graphs $50, l5l, l52, 1913 and l6l, and sec
ton 2, discriminating tariff upon Ameri-
can hardware, iron, steel, boilers, pipes
forgings, castings, tools, gas and water
meters, dynamos sewing machines; also
paragraph l67 of the Russian tariff laws,
when such articles are of American man
ufacturc. This includes motors and ma
! chinery of all kinds

attorney presented Il motion in the district
court to quash the indictment against his
client, ON the ground that the building in
jured harbored a nuisance and that his eli
ent had right to abate it.
In denying the motion Judge ID. NJ. Dale
ruled today that it makes no difference
whether the property destroyed is used
for saloon, a bank or grocery store.
Under this ruling the only point at issue is
whether the accused broke the glass win
dows. as alleged in the complaint.
The complaint in one case is made by
the owner of the building, who was not
the proprietor of the saloon.
Warrants sworn Out.

in the first degree. Hudson says he knows
who fired the shot that killed his wife and
that he will make his name known at the
proper time. Thomas Mcnamara, Ilud-
sons cousin, openly accuses one of the
quartet with firing the fatal shot. The
coroners jury will not sit on the case until
next Monday. In the meantime the cor
oner is busily engaged in gathering evil
dence against the raiders and several adj
ditional arrests will, it is said, follow It
is said that none of the raiders were tenn
perance people, and that they took advan-
tage of the reform movement to pay an old
grudge. William Webb, who was wound
ed in the raid, is reported in a serious con
dition today and may not live. He is 60
years of age.

MARYLAND DEMOCRATS
VIII Hold IA Harmonious Conyen-

BALTIMORE, Md, July 31.-The
Democratic State convention which will
meet at Fords Opera House, this city,
at noon tomorrow. promises to be thor
oughly harmonious. In the primaries
which closed yesterday no bitterness has
been developed except in Montgomery
county, where the friends of Senator
Bouic are sore over his defeat by Spen-
Ger Jones, the administration candidate.
The delegates to the coming convention
with unusually few exceptions are strict
organization men and there will be no
kicking over the traces. The nomina-
lions to be made tomorrow are the can
didates for controller and clerk of the
court of appeals. At this time there
seems no reason to doubt that DR..
Joshua w. Herring will be reneminated
for controller and J. Frank turner will
get the other place on the ticket.
As to the declaration of principles it
seems clear that no mention will be
made of national issues.
