item. Many publishers can be found
in Iowa following the latter plan, whilt
a few, and among them is the T.-R
management, believe that with a fail
subscription price a superb news serv-
| ice can be maintained.
| But with only the two sources of in
come, the business managers task is
not the simple one that it might seem
He must send out solicitors and pay
hotel and livery bills, in order that the
merits of his paper may be made
known. He must send advertising So
Ecitors after the advertising business
When they all return, as in the case OF
the T.-R. there are over $4,000 small
accounts to be carried on the company S
books, which require more men to keep
the records straight, and then the So
licitors must go back over xne territory
to get the money. However, the bust
ness manager of ability in the news
paper business has no cause to COM
plain. So well have he and his men
done their work that subscribers can
be offered news reading in newspaper
column form at S1.00 per mile, which
is actually the selling price in large
S-column paper like the T.-R., and
this newspaper in the six issues of one
week, sold for 10 cents, will present the
same amount of reading matter as is
contained in three average $1.50 blocks.
The same enterprise on the part of the
editors that has made the news of the
reinotest corners of the world avail
able to all newspapers on the day of
occurance has been shown by business
managers in getting so many thousand
people to subscribe for single pa
per, that these prices are made pos
sible. There has never been anything
conceived by the brain, or fashioned
by the hand of man that offers so much
value, or performs so much service for
so little cost to the public as does the
modern daily. The business office is
not an interesting place to visitors,
but its part in the making Of modern
newspaper is no less marvellous.

CONSPIRACIEs IN RUSSIA
Murder of Cabinet Officer Part of Gen.
eral Plot

LONDON. April 1s.-The ST. Petersburg
correspondent of the Times says that the
assassination of NJ. Sipaguine is consid-
cred to have been the result of a well-or-
ganized conspiracy and that anxiety pre-
walls to know whether other victims are
marked for removal.
While the severity of the government has
put an end to the student disorders, con-
tinues the correspondent those among the
workmen seem to be increasing especially
in the provinces. Serious riots are reported
from the southern manufacturing districts,
but details are difficult to gather.
The police have seized manifestoes calling
for general strike to begin May day.
Of1cials here privately admit that the
murder of Sipiaguine was one of many ex-
ceed!ngly alarming symptoms. 1t was
learned that the chateau OF the Duke of
Mecklenbourg, in Southeast Russia, was
recently pilaged and then razed by rioters

TO REVISE PATENT LAW.
Results of Work of Commission Ap
pointed by MI Mckinley.

Senator Pritchard, chairman of the COM
mittee on patents, has introduced a bill
prepared by the commission appointed by
President Mckinley to revise the patent
and trade mark laws of the United States
in connection with the convention for the
protection of industrial property, concluded
at Paris. March 20, 1883, and also a bill
presented by the minority of the commits
sion. The commissions bill covers the
whole field of marks used in commerce In
the territory of the United States and in
interstate and foreign commerce. 1t con-
tains provisions for registration of all
marks generally known as trade marks,
and a penal clause for the punishment of
infringerS in addition to the usual civil
remedies. The cost of registratio is re-
duced to $40. The term of registration is
fixed at ten years. in the case of for
eignerS to expire with their foreign regis
tration. The Dill is strictly reciprocal. 1t
is the work of Judge GrosScup of Chicago
ILL.,, and Mr. Francis Forbes of New York.
former delegate to the Madrid and Brus-
sells conferences under the convention. The
minority BILL drafted by Mr.. A. p Greeley
late assistant commissioner of patents pre-
sents the same feature of registration of
marks used in interstate commerce, reduc-
ton of fees, etc, but. it is claimed, better
preserves the common law rights of trade
mark owners than the commissions bill
1t contains no penal provision. Both bills
are very long.

QUESTION OF RATHBONE'S BAIL.
His Release Depends on Interpreta-
tion of an Order

A dispatch from Havana last night says:
The question of admitting Estes G. Rath-
bone to bail now rests on the interpreta-
tion of order No. 81 and upon whether Eng
l;sh or Spanish is the official language of
Cuba.
In English order No. 81 reads that the
bond of any fidelity company may be ac-
cepted' by the court as security; but the
Spanish translation of this order, according
to Spanish scholars, reads that bond must
be accepted from any such company Of
fering one.
y fidelity company has filed a bond for
Sloo,WO with the court as bail for Rath-
bones appearance, but this bond has not
yet been accepted
Counsel for Rathbone accent the Spanish
translation of order No. 81 in demanding
that bail for their client be accepted but
the military authorities insist that English
is the official language of Cuba, and that,
according to the English wording of the
order, acceptance of the bond is optional
with the court.
Inquiries made at the palace today
brought forth an expression of the opinion
that the military government cannot in
terfere with the court in this matter; vet
the president of the audiencia and the as
soc1ate Judges of that court hold almost
daily conferences with the military COVER
nor of the island.
The fiscal, who is studying the uuestion
of admitting Rathbone to BAIL held a long
conference with Gen. Wood this morning.
1t Is said the former takes the ground that
the bail must be accepted. and that the
Spanish translation of order No 81 is Of
fetal.
1t is understood in Havana tonight that
Rathbone will be admitted to bail tomor-

RECENT JAMAICA RIOTS
Most Serious Revolt Since the Upris-
ing of 1865.

United States Consul Sorsby at Kingston,
Jamaica. has transmitted to the Depart-
ment of State some interesting information
concerning the series of riots which COM
menced at Montego bay, Jamaica, Satur-
day, the 9Th of April The riots are de-
scribed as having been the most serious re-
volt in the history of the island since the
memorable uprising of 1865.
The affair at Montego bay started with a
drunken sailor, who was arrested by the
police. After landing the man in the lock-
up the constables are alleged to have re-
turned to the street and maltreated a num-
Der of persons, among them two women
The latter action maddened the people, who
crowded the streets of the little town and
assaulted the constables with sticks and
stones.
An assault was made on the residence of
the sergeant major of police and on the
guard house. and this brought matters to
such a pass that H. NJ. S. Tribune was dis
patched to the scene and troops were sent
by rail. making a total force on hand of
about $50 men.
Consul Sorsby who writes under date of
April 8, says that his latest news indicates
the complete suppression of the riot and
that there Is no apprehension in govern
ment quarters of any further disturbance.

Miss Stones Lecture Plans.

Miss Ellen NJ. Stone, the missionary to
Bulgaria, who was ransomed from the brig
ands, and who returned to this coun-
try last week, last night gave to the Ameri-
can board of commissioners of foreign mis-
sions In Boston a statement, in which she
says that it having been presented to her
as an imperative duty to relate her expert
ences in captivity in a public way, it was
In her heart to devote the proceeds toward
reimbursing any who may have embar-
raised themselves in providing the ransom
The further hope grew that she might do
something for those missionary purposes to
which she had given her life, such, for in
stance, as the establishment of an indus
trial school in Macedonia, in which young
men may be trained in legitimate occupa-
uons. so that they may not grow up to be-
come brgands.

FACILITATING LEGISLATION
Senate Takes Action to Advance
Chinese Bill

At the conclusion of Mr.. Morgan's speech,
which consumed four hours, in the Senate
yesterday afternoon, Mr.. Platt Conn },
called up the Chinese exclusion bill passed
by the House. He then moved that all af-
ter the enacting clause of that bill be
stricken out and that the measure as passed
by the Senate Wednesday be substituted
for 1t. The motion was carried without
comment.
This action on the part of the Senate was
necessary in order to facilitate the con-
sideration of the measure in the House
Otherwise the bill would have gone to the
house as an original measure and its con-
sderation might have been delayed
The Senate then at 4:50 went into execu-
tive session and at 4:55 adjourned.
