that Minister DeWitte may not intend to
do more than mildly retaliate on what he
regards as the discrimination of Secretary
cage against Russian sugar and oil. But
there are others who take another view,
ana from their standpoint Russia Is
charged with an aggressive attitude that
aoes not comport with friendly intentions
to the commerce of this country
1t Is ascertained that the decision of the
treasury Department as to Russian petro-
leum was rendered by the board of ap-
praisers in New York on the 2Sth of la st
January, some time before Secretary Gage
mad given the slightest consideration to the
subject of imposing a countervailing duty
on Russian sugar. The position of this
government Is not new one, and to off,
c1al circles 1t looks as If Russia had pur-
Poseiy dug up an old matter that she might
nave opportunity to strike another blow
at the commerce of the United States.
Purpose of the Administration.
1t is the purpose of the administration
to keep close watch on the situation
that it may be prepared to deal with Russia
as the occasion demands. The United
States would reluctantly enter into a tariff
war with any country. There is no power
by which further retaliation can be made
on russia If that country continues its at
tltude to this country, but the facts can be
laid before Congress when that body meets
and suitable legislation can be enacted
Ihe tariff laws specify only a few ar
ticles against which additional duties can
be assessed at the discrimination of the
Secretary of the Treasury.
The Reciprocity Treaties.
Secretary Hay and other members of the
cabinet believe that the outlook for a tariff
fight on the United States can be entirely
changed by the ratification by Congress Of
the pending reciprocity treaties. Unless
this is done at an early date it is believed
that serious consequences to many nations
this one included, may follow

THE CONVENTION REASSEMBLEs.
Reports of Committees Heard - The
Proceedings in Detail.

Special From a Staff Correspondent.
RICHMOND, Va, June 19.-When the
constitutional convention assembled at noon
today prayer was offered by Rev. Mead
Clarke The report of the committee on
rules was adopted and Carter Glass of
Lynchburg, from the committee on print
ing reported the arrangements made for
printing the proceedings of the convention.
Mr.. Richmond of Scott county wanted the
constitutions of the different states COM
piled and published. Mr. r. Walton Moore
of Fairfax suggested that this would be
very expensive undertaking, as demon
strated by the experience of the state Of
New York in the same connection, and en-
his motion the proposition was referred to
a committee. Mr.. Moore also secured the
reference to a committee of the suggestion
to print documents in the contested cleo
tiOn cases of Treat VS.. Gregory, from Han
over county.
Delegate Parker of Page county precipi-
tated a debate on the patronage question
by moving to amend the report of the COM
mittee on organization so as to Increase
the number of committee clerks by two
There are said to be more than 100 applica-
tions for the six clerkships originally pro-
posed by the committee report. His mo-
tion also struck out the provision for the
appointment of additional clerks from time
to time Mr.. Parks insisted that his motion
was in the direction of economy. The de-
bate over the two additional clerks dragged
along for half an hour. A. c. Braxton of
StauntOn objected to paying any of the
clerks except for actual per diem attend
ance upon the sessions. Mr.. Braxton's
modification was accepted in the interest Of
economy. AS worded, the resolution pro-
vided that members and clerks may be paid
If the committees hold sessions during the
recess of the convention.
The motion to increase the number of
committee clerks was defeated. The grave,
thoughtful members of the convention,
learned in the constitution and the law,
again halted at the approach to the real
business of the day to daily with the Ques-
tion of the appointment of ten more pages
TO the convention. Sir" remarked the
gentleman from Nottaway, Mr.. Watson. II
grant you that other conventions may have
been satisfied with one page; yet, sir, l
Randolph of Roanoke to this capitol you
would have found him attended by a ret
inue of servants attired in livery to wait
on him. and he needed no pages"
Mr.. O'Flaherty of Warren county Joined in
the appeal for additional pages, and was
followed by Mr.. Hubbard of buckingham
county IN the same strain. The discussion
reopened the old jealousy of the country
members against the patronage granted the
city of Richmond, in this case Richmond
being allotted two pages.
Far be 1t from me, SIR" declared Mr.
Stebbins of Halifax, ito check the aspira-
tions of the noble youth of the countryside
| to serve the commonwealth as pages in this
convention, but, sir, the interests of econ
omy must be conserved In behalf of the
people. and eight pages should be suffi-
cient"
BY vote of SO to 81 the convention de-
| clared for economy, and the additional
pages were denied. ". o. NJ.

Of this attempt cannot now be predicted. as
the Montague people are flushed with VIC
tory and unwilling to halt until the oppos-
ing faction have been completely ridden
down.
Capt. WiIIard's Prospects.
If Capt. Willard Is acting in harmony
with Montague, as generally credited, and
II ne is the choice of Montague for second
place. it will be difficult to prevent his
nomination. This will be better understood
when the method of electing delegates to
the state convention IS explained. In many
sections of Virginia where the delegates
were chosen by primaries in the cities and
b. mass meeting In the county court
houses the delegates were not voted for
personally. The candidates for the guber-
Eatgrtal nomination were put up. and the
voter named their choice. The successful
Candidate will be permitted to select and
PAM the men who are TO 60 as delegates
to the convention at Norfolk. His choice
Will be arbitrary, and, Of course. will fall

throughout the convention. This plan pre-

JAIL DELIVERY AT NOME
SEVEN GET OUT, THREE OF THEM
RECAPTURED.
One Shot In the tory
Result of the Winters
Mining.

NOME CITY, June (via Seattle, June
1O.-One Of the most daring and success
full Jail deliveries that has taken place in
Alaska occurred on May 20, when seven
prisoners in the federal Jail escaped, and
at last advices four were still at large.
Those who got away We're named Bowers,
Davis, Miller and Landes, while Smith,
Libby and May were recaptured. In the
capture May was shot through the head
and jaw and is in precarious condition.
The escape was effected by cutting
through the roofs Of the cells and after
ward cutting through the corrugated iron
roof Of the Jail. AS soon as the prisoners
were missed a detachment of soldiers was
sent from Fort Davis Every one leaving
town was questioned and dodgers" ad-
vertising the escape were freely circulated.
Libby was first captured hiding in a cabin.
Smith and May were found making their
way over the ridge and We're called on to
surrender. The former did so, but May
made break for liberty and was shot and
brought down.
The results of the winters work prove
emphatically that Nome is a winter camp.
Within a radius of eight miles about the
city dumps have been piled I'D which, on
conservative estimates, will yield $50 600
and this in spite of the lack of proper ap-
piiances and high price of fuel. With an
ample supply of coal at reasonable prices
for thawing, winter work can be prose-
cuted on a large scale.
From Council City and the Topkuk come
the best of reports 1t is said that gold
has been taken out during the winter to
the value of half million dollars. The
Topkuk beach is still yielding good pay
The bankers and commercial agents of the
city have received over one hundred thou
sand dollars in winter dust and nuggets.
All reports received at Nome during the
winter tend to establish the reports Of i'm
garak countries, and excellent reports
come from the farther north arctic dis
trictS.

ant in the house Of Mr.. Wernke.
