Pokotileff, manager of the Russo-Chinese
Bank in Peking, has been appointed agent
of the Russian ministry OF finance in Lon
don in succession to Tatischeff, who has
been appointed to post in the ministry OF
the interior in ST Petersburg. Pokouleff
was Russia's abest agent in the East, ana
he is credited with having had greater IN
fiuence at the Chinese court than any other
foreigner. The Russian representatives are
advising China to adopt gold standard.
They have prepared statement explaining
the desirabiIity and the possibility of this
step. Pokotileff is the supposed author or
the statement, which argues that the the
DRY that the balance of trade is against
China is fallacjous. The Russo-Chinese
Bank is suggested as being a semi-Chinese
institution qualified to assist in the neces-
sary measures to bring about the adoption
of the gold standard.

POPE LEO'S JUBILEE.


Coronation Anniversary Exercises.
ROME. March 1.-THE struggle to obtain
tickets for to-morrow's ceremony at the
Vatican on the occasion of the twenty
fifth anniversary of the coronation of the
Pope has been quite unprecedented. II is
expected that more than 10000 persons will
be present. The foreigners are especially
chagrined at the difficulty experienced in
obtaining tickets from the usual sources,
and the discomfort is increased by the fact
that good seats are offered for sale at the
hotels at high prices Most of the tickets
have gone to the Italian bishops. The rec
tor of the American college had over 500
applications for tickets, and he had less
than 2o0 at his disposal
The city is overlooking with visitors. The
hotels have turned the bath and billiard
rooms and offices into bedrooms, but the
accommodation Is still insufficient for the
crowd of 10000 pilgrims, besides the $1,000
other visitors who have arrived for to-
morrow's ceremony. Forty-six out of the
fifty-eight members of the Sacred College
are here, together with nearly 300 arch
bishops and bishops The Pope passed a
very quiet birthday, spending most of the
time resting to please the doctors, or, as he
said, praying to please himself"
Preparations are already going forward
at st. Peters: and the work will continue
all night. While troops, carbineers and
police are in readiness to insure order the
rain is preventing the people from spending
the night before the doors of St Peters
as is usual on such occasions i'm order ia

QUEENSTOWN, March 1.-The Dominion
line steamer Merton, which arrived here
yesterday from Boston for Liverpool, is
aground near Roche's Point, White bay.
The, tugs were unsuccessful i'm their at
tempts to float the Merton at high tide to-
night and a tender was sent to the steamer
to take off the passengers. The boisterous
weather, however, prevented the tender
going alongside, and the passengers will
have to spend the night on board the steam

When the tugs made the last attempt to
tow the Merton off the vessel was found to
be so strained after discharging the water
ballast that the captain did not like to run
the risk of going into deep water. He pre-
ferred that the Merton should remain
stranded until the weather moderated.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
On Friday and Saturday the soldiers at
the Marion branch home received their
quarterly pay, and the saloons in the i'm
mediate vicinity of the home have done a
very active business since, which has re-
suited in the following condition of things
on Sunday morning: The guardhouse was
full to overlooking. One of the old veterans
was found frozen to death. Many others
were lying around in the snow, but were
discovered in time to save them from a
similar fate. One OF these seventy years
of age, was found lying in the snow at
2 a. m. by one of the surgeons, who was
called to assist in a surgical operation. An
other was found with his leg broken, the
bone protrudng through the flesh. He was
not found for several hours after he had
received his injury. One man was badly
burned and there were several dislocations
of joints and broken heads. The doctors
of the home put in the greatest part of
the night in caring for these cases X. X.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. March I'm the past
forty-eight hours the river at Memphis has
risen three-tenths of foot according to
the official gauge, and the water now
stands at 34.2 stage, foot and two
tenths above the danger line. There has
been another rise In the Ohio. the Tonnes
see and Cumberland rivers, and when this
volume of water pours down the valley it
is feared the river at this point and below
will rise so high as to cause a disastrous
flood. The local weather bureau says that

Ii is probable the Memphis stage will equal
or exceed the highest known. The rise has
been unprecedented and a flood is coming.

BEAVERS WILL FIGHT.

ers resorted to habeas corpus proceed
ings to ascertain whether the govern
ment was not exceeding its authority in
causing indictments to be returned
against him in two separate federal
districts. Mr.. Beavers was. first form
ally surrendered by his bondsmen to a
United States marshal. Lawyer Sac
bury, representing Mr.. Beavers, then ap-
piled to Judge Holt Of the United States
district court for writ of habeas cor

for the government legally to remove
Mr.. Beavers to two separate districts at

be legal in but one case, that of the first
indictment found in Brooklyn.
Judge Holt made the writ returnable
on Oct. 9, and fixed bail pending the
hearing Of the writ at $2,5oo, which
was furnished.

Russia's evacuation of Manchuria, great
tension is observable among the Japan

Manchuria will be effected on the exact
