DARK DAYS FOR RUSSIA
French Sociologist Says the Nations
Life Is Endangered by In
ternal Discussions.
New York Sun Special Service.

Paris, Aug. 1.-THE current number OF the
Periodical European contains an important
article by Professor Ernest Tarbouriech of
the College of Social Sciences, who was re-
Gently entrusted with scientific mission to
Asia. He says that he is convinced from
heightened sojourn in Russia that the country
is in most serious condition from social
men whom he met confessed that they con-
stantly apprehended the gravest events. The
death struggle that is being waged between
the past and future in the empire of the car
is daily becoming more fierce and sanguin-
airy. 49,.
The foreign newspapers and even the Rus
sian journals are full of intelligence concern
Odessa, Kieff and other places. The whole
of south and southwest Russia is disorgan-
lied. The government is obliged to permit
native journals to keep their readrs informed
to a limited extent, but this is the first time
that such liberty has been granted.
The writer proceeds to deal with the part
played by M. Plehve, Russian minister Of
the interior in the events which have we'll
nigh brought to standstill commercial and
Black sea ports and all along the southern
and southeastern railways. The minister of
the intererior thru certain agents whose
names are mentioned has tried to seize the
guidance of the working class movement by
the creation7ot a so-called independent labor
party, which has been used as means for
dividing and sowing dissension among the
masses. - q: ~ x - -
One of the frst effects of this officially
patronized agitation has been to create con-
flict and confusion between the provincial
authorities and secret agents of the minis
try of the interior, who are strongly sup
ported from St. Petersburg.

Washington, Aug. 17.-How Secretary
Root narawly escaped being president was
told by Postmaster General Payne at the
farewell banquet given to the retiring
secretary Of war by the officers of the
general staff. When Postmaster General
Payne was called upon for toast he
spoke In f1attering terms Of Secretary
Root, and ended his address by reading a
letter, which Mr.. Root sent to the repub-
lican national committee in 1900, declin-
ing to accept the nomination for vice
president.
The letter stated that after consultation
with President Mckinley it was decided

Mr.. Bixby Is spending fortnight at his
home here, and he smiled serenely at the
disclosures telegraphed from Washington.
He Is director Of the Muskogee Title

do a straight banking and loan business.
They do stand ready to make loans on
these lands when purchased and that Is
one Of the purposes for which they were
organized.

II cannot see how there can be any
basis for the charge that lands are sold
at improper figures he said EVERY
parcel is sold under public bids, the deeds
are passed upon by the interior depart
ment under the secretary's supervision
and the department Is represented by In
spectors in the field. They go to the high
est bidder. and if I was interested in the
purchase the only way I could get them
would be by outbidding competitors. The
dispatches mention Mr.. Cobb, who was
internal revenue inspector. His company
is in the land business, but he left the
government employ before he took up this
business.
"a. a.. Stands by, Wright.
"You understand, the sale Of the lands
does not come under my jurisdiction. Mr..
Wright, who is also mentioned, has charge
Of that, and If he became interested in the
purchase should consider that different
matter. But he is very careful man.
and I do not believe that he has been
guilty Of any improperly. This Is only
piece Of the same business that has been
going on all the time.

Louisiana Press Says Negroes Should
Not Be Admitted.

New Orleans, Aug. 1.-THE Louisiana
press is almost unanimous in condemna-

democracy, and a strong sympa thizer
with union labor, issues this warning.
1.-The organization of negroes into labor
unions ought not to be encouraged or toll
Grated by the white. unions. It is a GER
tain breeder Of trouble. For white unions
to persist in encouraging such organize
