WAITING FOR TITLES.
Condemnation Proceedings for Land
for House Office Building.

All action on the part of the superinten-
dent of the Capitol in relation to the work of
constructing the new office building for the
House of Representatives, to be located on
B street east south of the Capitol grounds,
is awaiting determination of the title to
the land and condemnation proceedings for
acquiring it. When the appropriation of
s75O,O00 for the site for the building and to
begin construction was made last winter
it was expected that that amount would be
sufficient to not only purchase the site, but
also to begin the preparation of the founda-
ton for the building this fall.
The large amount of work which has been
placed on the title companies in this city
by the purchase of this square, and by the
extensive purchases incident to the rail-
road improvements, well as by brisk
real estate market, have combined to make
it difficult to get titles examined promptly.
AS soon these titles have all been finally
passed upon condemna ton proceedings will
be begun. Until these matters have been
completed it will not be possible for the su-
perintendent of the Capitol under whose
direction the work is to be DONE to begin
making tests for the foundation of the
building 1t is believed that great diff
Guilty will be met in the matter of securing
a satisfactory foundation for the new build
ing in reasonable time and at a cost that
will not be excessive

RUSSIA DECLINES WITH THANKS.
Doesn't Want Money or Advice Re.
garding the Kishenef Massacre.

Numerous offers have reached the Rus
sian government from American sources
to aid the families of sufferers in the re-
cent kishenef incident. All such offers
have been declined for the reason that
Russia is entirely capable of extending re-
lief, and under the circumstances cannot
accept outside aid.
The Russian position in the matter, as
stated to the Associate >lress in brief, is
as follows:
Russia has not been unappreciative of
the generous offers which have come to
her from America since the affair at Kish-
enef nor of the humanitarian motive which
may have prompted these offers. In view
OF the fact that his majesty the emperor
has the means at hand to relieve suffering
wherever 1t appears in his empire outside
aid is unnecessary and all offers of such
must be declined. Nor will it be possible
for Russia to receive any representations
regarding the Kishenef incident from
foreign power. The Russian government
takes the same position as that long held
by the American government, namely, that
1t refrains from interference in the internal
affairs of another power, and must Insist
on similar treatment for itself Should any
foreign power take steps to restrict immi
grafton of Russian Jews on the ground
that they are undesirable. Russia will not
protest. She admits the right of every ma
ton to say who shall come through Its
gates and who shall not. Should any coun-
try, as result of the Kishenef incident,
adopt measures restricting immigration of
Russian Jews, Russia will regard such
step only as defensive measure on the
part of the power taking it, and not in the
light of a reflection on the Russian govern
ment -

be friends of the Berrys, or enemies of the
Deweys, and the greatest precaution was
exercised to prevent them twreaking ven
geance upon the prisoners At. no time,
however, were any advances made In this
direction.
