RUSSIA BREAKS FAITH.
Utterly Fails to Keep Pledge to Main.
tain Open Door Manchuria.

TAIN Open DooF mdhCnurid.
Washington, April 24.-Minister
Conger, from Pekin. has cabled to
Secretary Hay synopsis OF the de-
mands made upon China by Russia,
respecting control OF Manchuria.
The account agrees precisely with
the full and accurate press report Of
Russia's last coup sent from the Chi.
nese capital. Secretary Hay will take
no action in the matter until he has
communicated with the president and
has learned the latter's wishes.
The present impression is that the
Russian action is a distinct breach of
faith with the United States. The
Russian government pledged itself
three times formally. and the docu.
ments are OF record. that the open
door should be maintained in Manchu.
ria and Russian troops would be with.
drawn as soon as peace was restored.

with no success. Fortunately my en-

MoNTANA'S INCREASE.
Revenue Receipts Have Jumped rs
Per Cent During Past Year.

According to figures just received
from the department at Washington
by Mrs. Eugene s. French, stamp
clerk in Helena, the revenue receipts
in Montana for the fiscal year ending
June 30. 1902, show an increase of a
little more than IA per cent over the
previous year. This is considered
particularly gratifying in view of the
fact that the receipts for Utah show
falling off of more than 1S per cent
Although the receipts of Montana for
the year were three times as great
as those of Utah. the headquarters
of the district Of Montana, including
Montana. Utah and Idaho, is in Salt
Lake. The reports for Montana show
an increase Of 69.346.61 for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1902, over the
previous year, while Utah showed a
falling off of s42, 1864. Idaho shows
a slight increase. The following table
