DO 1T ALL OVER AGAIN.
I May Be the Only Way to Remedy
Cuban Treaty Muddle.

Washington, March "a. The de-
fects in the Cuban treaty we're discussed
at the state department today by Secre-
tary Hay anil a number OF senator's, in
Guiding Chairman Cullom, Of the sem
ate committee oD foreign relations.
There was no disposition to minimize
the extent Of the complications, and,
in fact, fresh ones were developed dur
ing the conference.
1t VAS pointed out by one senator
that the provision that "this treaty
shall not take effect until the same
shall have been approved by congress,
required such action not only on the
part Of our own congress, but by the
Cuban congress as veil, and this it
would perhaps be difficult to secure, for
the opposition is much stronger in the
Cuban lower house than in the senate.
Some OF the senator's who called
bluntly stated that the treaty would
surely be defeSted II it again came be-
fore the United States congress. The
officials Of the state department have
not yet given up hope Of being able to
straighten out the tangle, but 1t APP
pears more probable today than ever
that new treaty will be required.

COAL COMBINE ENJoINED.
Federal Court Orders Indiana Operators
to Let Market Alone.

feueTal SOuTt OTueFS iHuiduh OpSEdlVNS
to Let Market Alone.
Chicago, March 26.--Ten Indiana
coal companies and ten individual
operators were restrained by Judge
Hohlsatt in the United States circuit
court today from continuing their COM
hination for the regulation Of coal
prices and output. The defendants
we're given until April to show cause
why the order should not be made per-
manent. The corporations and indi-
viduals enjoined are the same recently
tried in the state court on the charge OF
raising the price Of coal and restricting
the output in Illinois, thus causing the
coal famine in Chicago last winter.
Judge Chetlan dismissed the case on
the ground that the offense was com
smitted asainst the federal law and not
against the state Of Illinois. The in
junction granted will stand until furth-
or order Of the court.
No opposition was offered in court to
the entering Of the order, When the
notice was first served upon the defend
ants some days ago the appearance Of
each was entered with the exception Of
the Wabash coal company, which was
represented in court by its attorney.
In the meantime, however, the matter
was taken up by the coal operators with
the attorney general at Washinton, and
by him referred back to District At.
torney Bethea. Attorneys for the oper.
ators refused to state what action would
be taken by the mineowners in the
matter.

AMERICAN FALLS RUN DRY.
Ice.Jam Stops the Flow Of Niagara, and
Relic Hunters Revel.

Niagara Falls, March 26. = The
American Falls is practically dry, and
for the first time in 55 years people are
able to walk about in the river bed.
Thousands have clambered over the
rocks hunting for relics and souvenirs.
Great rocks never before seen are high
and dry. So little water is flowing
over the American Falls that men in
high boots almost could have crossed
at the brink.
The extraordinary condition is due
to an ice jam up the river. The ice
was driven from Lake Erie into the
entrance to the Niagara and lodged in
the shoalwater, shutting off the flow
into the American channel. The
Horseshoe Falls is not affected as much
as the American. The river in the vi
cinity of the Three Sister islands ID
quite dry, and the center falls, between
Goat and Luna islands, is skeleton Of
itself. The conditions is likely to last
for several days.

RED FLAG is FLOWN.
Brutal Treatment of Prisoners Caused a
Revolutionary Outbreak.

st. Petersbug, March 25. - Letters
received here from Tomsk, West ST.
IBERIA, describe the riots which occurred
there March 8. About 20 students, it
appears, attended locsi court in con-
nection with a slander case, and on
leaving we're surrounded by the police.
The students broke through the Gordon
and marched past the university, shout
ing:
"Down with the autocracy."
The numbers OF those taking part in
the demonstration we're increased to
some 5000 persons, and the situation
became so alarming that the chief of
police barricaded the bridge and sum-
moned reinforcements. The governor,
Prince Viazemsky, arrived on the scene
and ordered the rioters to be attacked.
Some of them were beaten and the
whole body Of rioters was finally over
come.
Seyenty-six men were confined in the
courtyard of the police station, where,
it is alleged, they we're much abused.
DR.. Schlechter and lawyer named
yoznezensky, who demonstrated with
the police, were seriously injured. A
petition to the president Of the Tomslk
bar association, signed by every lawyer
in the city, corroborates this account,
and declares that the maltreatment of
the prisoners was needless and wiiful.
The students met again on March 5
and protested against the treatment the
rioters had been subjected to, and
marched through the streets, their
ranks being augmented by 500 sympa-
thizers carrying red flags and making
revolutionary demonstrations. Vice
Governor Delwig parleyed with the
processionists and withdrew the SOL
diers. News regarding the subsequent
developments has not yet been received
here.

Street ca IioId.up at Los Angeles.

Los Angeles, March 25. = Three
masked robbers attempted to hold up a
car on the line between Los Angeles
and Santa Monica, about mile west
OF the city limits last night, and after
pistol duel between G. W. HendeT-
son, one OF the passengeas, and one of
the robbers. the other two highwaymen
began shooting right and left through
the crowded car. One passenger was
killed and three were wounded. 1t is
believed one of the robbers was badly
wounded, because be was heard to cry
out and was seen to fall off the car i'm
mediately after Henderson began shoot
| ing at him.

MANY JAPANESE STARVING.
Relief Expedition Goes to Aid Of North
west Provinces.


Toxic, Japan, March 10, via Victoria,
B. c., March 24.-Some reaction has
manifested itself after the first shock
Of the news that 10000 people were
starving in the northwest provinces of
Japan. Europeans and Americans
have led the way in opening subscrip-
tion lists, and already some 5000 yen
(sS, ,000) have been collected, while
foreign investigators have been dis
patched to the scene of the reported
distress to ascertain the amount Of the
requirements and distribute supplies.
From their reports, although the
deep snow and poor means OF commun-
ication in the remote country have
made the distance covered inconoeiva-
BILE, it can be gathered that the distress
is very real. One report says that
horses we're eaten and roots and rice
straw made up in edible form. The
last stage Of destitution was reached.
The Japanese people are now them
selves gathering data and sending relief
funds, while the government proposes
starting relief works when the snow
has melted.

The Origin of Johnnycake.

No doubt many others besides the
writer may have wondered how johnny
cake came to be thus named. When q
child, settled 1t for myself by imag-
lining John Smith, whom Pocahontas
saved, had something to do with it.
The cake, being made Of Indian meal,
became thus associated In my mind
with the historical name. A writer In
the Housekeeper says:
In tracing the term we find ourselves
at a time antedating by many years
steam cars and hotels on wheels, In an
age when mankind depended entirely
upon his four footed companions for
transportation and had only saddIebags
in which to carry his luggage. Tav-
erns were few and far apart, and
lunch was always acceptable. Corn
meal, forming so large a part Of the
dietary in those days, held a chief place
In making up the lunch. Wet with wa
ter and little salt added, 1t was baked
In shape that stored away in the sad
dlebags nicely and was called journey
cake. This Is the origin of our modern,
unconventional johnnycake.

New Venezuelan Minister.

Washington, July 15.-Senor Don
Augusta Pulido, the Venezuelan charge
daffaires called at the state depart
pointment of General Hernandez as
Venezuelan minister at Washington
and of himself as first secretary of the
legation. Venezuela has been without
a minister at Washington since 1899,
when Mr.. Andrade was promoted from
this post to be Venezuelan minister
at London, where he afterwards died.
Mr. Pulido, then second secretary, was
left as charge d'affaires and since that
time has represented his government
here in that capacity.
