To the Editor Of the Globe:
VIII you please answer the following
questions: First-Is there at nresent any
difference in time between Chicago ard
St Paul? Second-Was there ever any
difference in time between these two
cities and about how long ago.
st. Paul and Chicago now both use
standard time, or actually speaking.

same in both cities. Taking astronomical
time, when it is IL m. in st. Paul. stand
ard time, it is 11:47:40 actual time. and
when it is IL NJ. in Chicago it is 12.G9:4f
actual time. a difference of 22:0t actual
astronomical time, and this difference
was observed both in local time and
railroad time i'll both cities about
dozen years ago, at which time standard
time was adopted, and no notice was
thereafter taken of the difference in
astronomical time.

The Russian, consul general in/ New
York declares that the reports concern
ing the riots in Russia have been ex-
aggerated through the Vaccinations Of
some party or parties that have an in
terest in doing so. Who could have
such an interest? Possibly some power
wishing to see Russia embroiled in war;
might thus try to encourage other pow
ers to make the attack. Or the Russian
government itself wishing to go to war,
might take this method to encourage the
enemy. And again it might be merely
the work of spectators trying to affect
the price of stocks. 1t is, however, more
than likely that the reports are just the
opposite of exaggerated and that the
Russian government is doing all it can
