Russia Demands That China Cede to He
All Sovereignty In Manchuria. .

Russia Demands That China cede to Her
All Sovereignty In Manchuria. ,.
Peling. April 24.-Russia has demanded
that China sign an agreement pra actically
ceding to her the sovereignty of Manchu-
ria and excluding other nations.
The Russian charge d'affaires, M. Plan
con. has informed Prince Ching. president
of the foreign office. that no further steps
in the evacuation of Manchuria will be
taken until this agreement is signed.
Prince Ching refused the Russian terms.
but his refusal probably pleases Russia
as we'll as his acceptance would have done,
because either alternative means the re-
linquishn1ent of Chinese sovereignty in
Manchuria. - - .+.-s-,. ..-.
The Russian demands are as follows:
First no more Manchurian ports or towns to
be opencd second foreign con-
sulS are to be admitted into Manchuria; third,
no foreigners, except Russians. are to be en-
ploye1in the public service of Manchuria; fourth.
the present statrs of the administration of Man
churia is to remain unchanged; fifth, the customs
receipts at the port of New Chwang are to be
given to the Russo Chinese bank: sixth, a sani-
tary commission Is to be organized under Russian
Control; seventh Russia is entitled to attach the
telegraph wires and poles of all Chinese lines
in Manchuria. and. eighth no territory In Man.

expulsion as being simply a police
measure, for which no legisla ton need be
made.
Peter Lantensac, a German naturalized
in Utah. first organized missionary work
here in 1896 He was succeeded in 1899,
as bishop, by Arnold Schultheiss, a Swiss,
naturalized in Utah. who directed 100 mis-
sionaries. Hugh J. Cannon replaced him
in 1900, and the latter has steadily in
creased the number of Mormon preachers
and has nearly doubled the membership
which is now 1000. -...
When a Mormon arrived in a German
village he would rent hall and begin to
preach the new faith, and. the common
result was that the local pastor of the
state church or the Catholic priest of the
parish would complain. to the police, who
not infrequently ordered the missionary to
leave. ..>.>E
The latter then would telegraph to the
bishop in Berlin. who, thru the United
States embassy would obtain a azsuspension
Of the police order indefinitely or its can
collation. The foreign office, owing tc
the number of cases pendings2took up the
subject with the view of settling the status
of Mormons for good instead of being
bothered by numerous individual cases.
The result has been the decisions OF
Prussia and Mecklenburg to expel the
Mormons. which course is likely to be
followed by Saxony, where there are
twenty-five missionaries, and by other
states Bavaria some time ago decreed
the expulsion of the Morrnons and they
quietly left without making stir or at
tracing discussion. ssei@.,
Mr. Cannon, who has beenh Informed
officially of P1ussias and Mecklenburg's
decisions. has not yet determined wla,
to do, but he will endeavor to obtain a
reversal Of the policy. He affrms that
the missionaries never teach polygamy
never persuade their adherents to emf
crate and always admonish obedience tc
the laws: The members are discouraged
from emigrating. Mr.. Cannon adds, be.
cause the church desires to establish 9
permanent foundation here. The mis-
sionaries in Germany at their own ex.
penses, have distributed considerable
| sums of money in charity. #

enough to allow the firemen to work with
ease. ..- --l -5.: .--sz- .. ~ <
In the basement beneath the place occu-
pied as an office, where two bodies are
supposed to be, there is a mixture Of
paints, oil and water. The appearance of
this was almost enough to discourage
work. However, the persistent tiremen
succeeded in recovering the remains Of
Mr.. Mitchell at noon to-day. The body
was badly burned and lay directly in
front of the position occupied by his desk.
The remains were burned beyond recogni-
ton but some papers found in the pock-,
cts enabled the officers to identify them.
Last night and again this morning Rev.
William Wilkinson appeared with large
can Of hot coffee which he passed around
among the tired firemen. The fire-fighters
partook freely of the refreshments and

ing two large arc lights directly over the

A Word About Each Of Those Who Lost
Their Lives.
W.. H. Davis, the sole proprietor of the
Northwestern Star Oil company, was SO
years of age and unmarried. He resided
with a married sister at Hennepin avenue
and Twenty second street. He was en-
gagged in the oil business in Milwaukee
before coming to Minneapolis. He re-
tanned his interests in Milwaukee after
removing, but finally decided to make this
city the headquarters of the company.
S. w. Mitchell, aged A years, was also
a former resident of Milwaukee. He was
formerly connected with the Great North
ern road. A wife and three sons survive
him. They live at S02 Fourth street Sc.
Ella M. Roundy, aged % years, lived
formerly at Wabasha, Mimi, where her
parents now reside. She had been en-
ployed by the oil company as stenog-
rapher for more than year and was
residing with her brother and sister at
624 Fifteenth avenue Sc.
Miss Caroline A. Record came to Min
neapolis from Milbank, s. D., in 1886. She

Five bodies still remain in the ruins Of
the Northwestern Star Oil company's
plant, destroyed by an explosion at noon
yesterday. The fifth recovered body,
that of S. w. Mitchell, cashier, was re-
moved shortly before noon to-day.
The fremen hope to secure two more
bodies, namely those Of G. H. Durrin,
general manager, and Harold c. Colborn,
clerk, while their is little chance Of re-
covering the remains of David Dacy, John
Spotanski and Joseph Laphond, as these

OF the six employees who escaped with
burns and other. injuries, all are doing
we'll, and it is thought all will recover.
The condition Of Walter Scott, who sus-
tanned broken rib and severe burns about
the head, neck and arms, was considered
dangerous last night, and until noon to-
day, when he rallied, and the physicians
say that he will recover. Partial paral-
ysis of some of the organs followed his
admission to the hospital yesterday, but
these symptoms left him to-day. Ss$s
| Will Larson, Joseph Dronick and e. j.
| Link, the other three men taken to the
city hospital, are on the road to rapid
recovery, and will probably be about in
a few days. - "t.,s.s~
Joseph MeGinty is at the Swedish hos
pital and doing nicely. He is badly burned
about the head neck and hands. When

To-day the flames are still raging in
the tank room where two tanks Of gaso-
lene furnish excellent material for the
flames. These tanks, each of which con-
tanned several hundred barrels, caught
fire this morning. One exploded at 1880
o o'clock, but the other broke open with
out an explosion. Huge columns of dense.
black smoke, interviewer with tongues of
flames, mounted to great height and
presented a. beautiful sight. ,~'
All efforts to eXtinguish the flames in
these tanks we're abandoned by the fire
department, it being realized that the
only thing to do was to allow the oil to
burn away:
The crowd, by the orders of Superin-
| tendent AConroy, who -superintended the
police protection in person, was kept at a
safe distance so that if any hidden tanks
| exploded there would be no casualties.
The firemen, under orders of Captain J.
c. Sullivan acting second assistant chief,
devoted their efforts to recovering bodies.
Debris Hard to Work In.
In the part of the building used for
warehouse, workshop and store room, the
| flames had burned out but the basement
was filled with water and oil to the depth
ftwo feet. making it almost impossible

out into the. basement and an effort made

be drained and pumped out. This plan

Yesterday Over Franchise Bills.

Yesterday Over Franchise Bills.
Springfield; Ill April o4--Slugging and
rolling over each other across the speak
er's platform in a frenzied general fist
fight, at the feet of score of women
guests, the members Of the Illinois egis-
lature yesterday surpassed the Austrian
reichsrath.
Charges by the speaker of the house,
John H. Miller, that attempts had been
made to bribe him were formally made
as explanation of the extraordinary
actions on his part that precipitated the
riot. .-r
The interior of the Legislative chamber
last night resembled in a measure the
track of a tornado, so general was the
wreckage of chairs and desks. Chicago
street railway franchises. more valua BILE
than gold mines, were directly at stake
federal court receivership proceedings
against the Union Traction company OF
Chicago having brought the matter. to q
sudden issue. .." . *
The federal sreceivership was held b,
many to indicate an intention by the
street railway company to fight out 8
claim to ninety nine-year franchises in
stead of negotiating with the Chicago
city council for a. renewal of franchises or
a twenty-year basis, with a municipa
ownership option on the part of the city.
The stormiestt time ever. experienced in
the Illinois Legislature began almost with
out warning in whirlpool of wild dis
order which arose in the house Of repre-
sentatives over rival traction measures, -
so called municipal ownership bills.
The Lindley bill was up, the first
amendment was read and then the
speaker started to put the question of its
adoption. The house was thrown into
disorder. A large number of the mem
bers We're on their feet. Some of them
were standing on chairs. and a few or
their desks. demanding a roll call.

credit to most men. She was reinforced
| yesterday by Charles w. Sonlerby, as
! sistant attorney general, who was sent
| by Governor Van SAINT to investigate and
| adjust matters. .'
| The controversy is over a dam at the
outlet of the lake which has been used by
!! the lumbermen to float logs. The piece
of land connecting the dam was con-
demned last December ~&y the attorney
general and is now the property OF the
state. He could have torn out the dam,
| but desired to dissuade the Brainerd Lum-
ber company from cutting certain tracts
in the park. which they had bought from
| the Pillsbury estate.
| An Agreement on the Dam.
| -At that time there was no available
state moneycto buy the pieces Of land and
the company was, about to cut them. 1t
l:agreed not to do SO with the understand
| ing that it be allowed to use this dam
when the ice went out in the spring to
| float other logs cut near the park. At
torney General Douglas agreed to this
with the understanding that the dam
should be opened if the water got SO high
as to overflow park land, and damage it,
| and that the logs should be driven out
| and the dam opened as soon as the ice
went out. -..r.'. .,. = s. y

the dam closed until Miss Gibbs found
/ it was overf1owing the margin of the lake
| and she ordered it opened. The company
refused and she got the sheriff of the new
county in which this part of the park lies,
and twice went to the dam, ordering the
employees to open it. They refused, and
| one, she says. drew a gun on them.
| Last Tuesday the sheriff arrested Sidney
Cornell and Joel Belmore. two Of the en-
ployes, for resisting him. They are to
come up for a hearing tomorrow at
Bagley. y
Lun,bermen Try Injunction.
The boom company played its trump

| junction in the name of M. E. Thurston,
! superintendent of the company, and "a
/ temporary injunction was issued by Judge

with the dam. 8 A copy Of it reached At
