SHOCKED ny THE BRUTALITY

MANY TRAMPLED UNDER FOOT.
HUNDREDS Of MEN AND WOMEN
DRIVEN LIKE CATTLE TO
THE CITY HALL.

ST. PETERSBURG, Monday, March
A-Tosday was the fortieth anniver-
sary of the emancipation Of the serfs.
The students had been planning for
some time to keep the day as a holt
day and perhaps make some demon
stration, but no particular plans were
made. At noon a Thousand OF fifteen
hundred men students and women stu
dents gathered in and around the
Kasan Cathedral on the Nevsky pros
pect, where mass for the repose of the
soul of Gar Alexander III. was being
celebrated. After the mass the stu
dents began singing and the police
gathered in great numbers. The stu
dents were surrounded and driven in
q crowd towards the city hall not far
AWAY and also on the Nevsky. For no
special reason the police began beating
the students and trampling them
under the feet of their horses. The
Nevsky prospect was filed with spec

were nearly all closed with shutters
fastened and doors locked. The spec
tators and women students screamed
with horror, but the police kept UP
their attack on the students until -four
hundred OF the latter were driven into
the court yard of the city hall, the
others escaping into the crowd. The
entire city was Mortified by the con-
duct Of the police.
The police were warned beforehand
and twenty-five delegates from the va
rious St. Petersburg higher educational
institutions were arrested Friday night
for meeting to consider student affairs.
1T is learned that the arrest of Prof.
r. H. Melukoff, the celebrated histo-
rian and author of a three volume
t.History of Russian Literature" and of
"A History of the Period of Peter the
Great" and editor Of the Russian edi-
ton of the Ferman Encyclopedia, who
was taken into custody February IL,
WAS for participation in a conference
between liberal citizens and $50 stu
dents, called to consider matters re-
aating to student life and start a petit
ton to the car. The manuscript Of
this petition was found in Prof. Melu-
koff's house.
(Prof. Melukoff was dismissed sew
erad years ago from Moscow Univer-
eity for liberalism. He was afterwari
professor of worlds history at Sofia.
Recently he returned to St. Peters
burg.)
Sixty-one new arrests were recently
made at Kieff. The government has
decided not Ito make a political affair
of the attempt made February 81 by
Peter Karpoyich upon the life of the
minister of public instruction, NJ. Bo-
golipoff, when Karpovich shot the
minister through the neck while the
latter was receiving petitions at the
ministry of public instruction. Kar-
povich, who was formerly a student at
Dorpat~ university, will be tried March
20 by a court representing all classes
of citizenship. The penalty for this
crime will not exceed fifteen years
imprisonment.

A stranger in the town attempted to
bunco several of the merchants Tues
day Afternoon, but those in charge of
each establishment he visited were
on the alert for %swindlers, and conse-
quently his scheme entirely failed. The
game he tried to work was an old one,
and his subjects were thoroughly &C
quainted with it. With an air of famil-
larity he would enter a store, order
some merchandise, pretend that he had
forgotten his purse and then promise
to send his wife up to the establish
ment with the money for the goods
just as soon as they might be deliv-
cred. In every instance he was told
by the proprietor that he could not
trade with him by such a system, as
he was a stranger, and the "buncoer''
would invariably remark with a look
of surprise, that his wife had dealt
with that particular firm for years.
Nevertheless his bluffs were well I'M
derstood, and they failed. He claimed
to be an engineer on a River

was in the wrong town, he left for

So, there being already in the field,
long before the Morgan consolidation
was thought of, a United States Steel
Company, it was suggested by the Nor
gan advisers that American Steel
Company" would be an appropriate
name. But this was combated on the
ground that there were several COM
panies beginning with American
Steel" which might cause confusion,
as American Steel Barge Company,
American Steel Casting Company,
American Steel Hoop Company, Amer
loan Steel and Wire Company, etc. On
the Stock Exchange A S w is often
spoken of as American Steel" the in
itials meaning American Steel and

SELECTING A NAME.
Some Influences That Determined the
Naming Of the Great Steel Trust

Some Influences That Determined the
Naming Of the Great steel Trust
New York Press.
The time for guessing about the
Steel Trust is past. Nearly everybody
in the Street had a false story about
the combination, and net a few ro-
mances found their way into the pa
pers. One of the humorous stories was
that some smart fellows had rushed
through a charter for the United
States Steel Company" in New Jersey,
in order to head off the trust and sell
the name for a handsome considera-
ton, it being understood from the "in-
side" that Mr.. Morgan had expressed a
decided preference for the title. This
looked like a clever Yankee trick, and
the Wall Street element literally ap-
plauded it. And the story read well.
Unfortunately, however, it did not pan
out pure gold, a genuine United States
Steel Company having been incorpo-
rated under the laws Of West Virginia
in 1889, with a capital Of $4,000, 900.

In Saturdays papers the loss of
horse and surrey from in front ofClarke
Bros store was reported, and at the
time neither the owner of the outfit nor
the man who took II were known.
Since then 1t develops that the horse
and surrey belonged to a man named
Wagner. residing on Taylor avenue.
who reported it to the police.
Last evening John Bowen, residing
on keyser avenue, near the West
mountain approached patrolman
David ]. Davis on North Main avenue,
with fear and trembling, and bluntly
remarked:
"Ohicer, I'm the man you're looking
for"
For what?" asked the patrolman. in
surprise.
For taking that horse and surrey
from in front of Clarke Bros store
Friday night" replied Bowen.
We'll, if that's tn" case said Davis,
"come right along with me"
Bowen accompanied the patrolman to
the station house. where he repeated
his confession to Lieutenant Williams
When asked for further explanation,
Bowen stated that he thought the
horse and surrey rescmblcd his own.
He drove the horse home Friday night,
put him out in the barn and retired
Saturday morning, when he went to
feed him. Bowen discovered that his
own horse and surrey were N the barn
also. Then he read in The Tribune
about the outfit that was missing.
Bowen set out Immediately to lO-
cate the owner lie searched in vain
all day Saturday and all day yester-
day, and becoming weary Of WE'LL
doing, voluntarily gave himself up.
He promised to have the outfit at
the jackson street police station at s
o'clock this morning for the owner,
and hopes Mr.. Wagner will be con-
siderate enough to refrain from prose-
cutting him. as he says he will never do
such Il thing again.

WEST SCRANTON
Midnight Mystery Unsolved.

That the injuries sustained by Mrs.
John Hearn, of 535 North Garfield ave-
nue., at an early hour Saturday morn
ing were not inflicted by a burglar IL
the firm belief of the police. The
most probable theory of the mysterious
afTair Is that the woman. in returning
home from neighbor's house, fell
against a post and sustained the IN
juries which has since rendered her
unconscious.
The supposton is that the mud
found on her clothing was gathered
in her fall, and the cash on her fore
head was inflicted by her again falling
against the stairs in the house, at
the foot of which she was found by
her son-n-law.
1t was the latter who made an out
cry that attracted the passing street
car man, and Dr. II. w. Evans, who
was called notified the police of the
occurrence. The family are desirous
that the incident he closed, but Mrs.
Hearn is not yet out of danger and
may not recover.
The theory of robbery has been dis
PEELED. as nothing Is missing, and the
published statement that the woman
was outraged Is unfounded sensational
ism. Mrs. Hearn's condition was un-
changed last night and il is an even
chance that she will recover.

naCle last evening to listen to the
sermon preached by Rev. DIR. David
Spencer, pastor of the Blakely Baptist
church, and who was a prominent fac
tor in the organization of the North
Scranton church fifteen years ago. His
text was "NOw There Stood by the
Cross Mary, the Mother of Jesus, Mary
Magdalene, Mary the wife of Cleopas."
He spoke of four characters of wo-
man-sorrow. sympathy. society and
sin. He referred to the fact that
there was no condition which cannot
be made happy by standing by the
cross and what it represents, He
spoke of his own experience in refer
ence to his sorrow (referring to the
recent death of his wife) when he
found comfort in coming to the cross,
which greatly relieved the sorrow. He
ended his sermon by heseeching the
men to join their wives in Christian
work as we'll as in other matters.
