London. June 20.-In the House of
Lords to-day Foreign Minister Lans-
downe announced that the British min
lister to Servia had been instructed to
withdraw from Belgrade for some time
on the arrival there of King Peter, and
in the meanwhile to do nothing which
could be construed as a recognition OF
the government. Lord Lansdowne ex-
pressed his Indignation at the crimes at
Belgrade and said he thought it was
not desirable that Sir George Bonham,
the British minister, should be in that
city when the new regime was inaugu-
rated
The foreign minister added that no
proposal had been received for concert
ed action towards Servia by the pow
ers, but the British government had no
intention of maintaining ordinary re-
lations with the persons concerned in
the massacres.
The government yielded to none in

Every child born into the world with
an inherited or early developed ten
dency to distressing, dlsfguring hu-
mours of the skin, scalp and blood,
becomes an object of the most tender
solicitude, not only because of its suffer-

that the disHguration is to be lifelong
and mar its future happiness and pros-y

mothers of such afflicted children to ac-
quaint themselves with the best, the
purest and most effective treatment
available, viz, The Cuticura Treatment.
Warm baths with Cnticura Soap, to
cleanse the skin and scalp of crusts and
scales, gentle applications of Cuticura
Ointment, to allay itching, irritation
and Inflammation, and soothe and heal,
and mild doses of Cuticura Resolvent, to
cool the blood in the severer cases, are
all that can be desired for the speedy
relief and permanent cure of skin tor

fort of worn-out parents.

Russian Government Relents.

Chicago. June 20.-The Russian gov
ernment has taken cognizance of the
protest against the Kishineff massacre.
Important concession have been grant
ed to the Jews, which will relieve
their terribly confined condition in the
large cities.
According to the dispatch a com
mittee of fifty of the most influential
Jews in Odessa went to st. Peters
burg and presented a memorial asking
that in the region where the persecu-
tions have been most fragrant the
Jews might be granted concessions.
The misery of the families who had
lost all during the terrible massacre
was detailed, and the clemency of the
Gar asked. The ministers decided
that all villages as regards the Jews
should be classified as cities. and that
the Jews should be permitted to re-
side in them. Further it was decided
that the edict prohibiting Jews from
living within fifty miles of the frontier
should be revoked, and that they
should be permitted to live in any por-
tion of the country.

BRITISH GOVERNMENT WILL
NOT RECOGNIZE NEW MONARCH

the adherence of events which had
lately disgraced the capital of Servia
and that adherence had not been dis
missed by later intelligence which had
reached the foreign office. 1t would be
no exaggeration to say that 1t would
be hard to find a parallel for the out
RACES even in the annals of states
which made no pretense to be includ-
ed among the civilized communities.
The government had ascertained that
France. Germany and Italy were main
tanning the attitude towards Servia
similar to that of Great Britain. while
Austria and Germany were prepared to
recognize the new regime. although
Russia appeared to have claimed that
proper punishment should be inflicted.
He thought Great Britain would not
uslessly propose to the other powers
concerted measures of a punitive char
acter against the authors of the out
RACES.

large shifts of men at work and
corpses are being found many miles

bodies have undoubtedly been carried
to the Columbia river. forty miles
away, and will never be recovered.
While the bodies yesterday and to-
day were in a horrible condition, many
were frozen stiff when brought into
the hot sun, a phenomenon rendered
possible by their covering of hail.
Great banks of frozen hail still lie in
the drifts with bodies. Where people
were rolled before wall of hail dur
ing the flood, they are stripped naked
and their flesh whipped into a solid
bruise.

GOVERNMENT WILL IGNORE
VIRGINIA COURT INJUNC TION

ly applies with greater force and rea-
son in case affecting the government
than where the interests of private lit
igation alone are involved. The statute
of 1S64Senables the government, al
though not party, nor in general sub
ject to be made such, to intervene
without prejudice and invoke that
doctrine.
The nature and necessities of the
subject, the sovereign claims and the
interest, the object to be gained, in the
words of the statute and its reserva-
tions, all convince me beyond doubt
that the stipulation to be entered into
is an engagement on behalf of the Unit
ed States, which shall be addressed to
and filed with the particular court. un-
der proper reserve of submission to the
Jurisdiction, whereupon discharge of
the property as matter of course
would follow and adverse claimants
would have the opportunity of estab-
fishing, in accordance with the law,
their respective claims against the
bond of indemnity thus provided
In concluding his opinion, the attor-
ney general says:
"One further point remains to be con-
sidered. The letter of the secretary OF
the navy requests to be authorized to
employ, If necessary, the military
forces of the government at his dis
posal for the execution of his orders in
the premises. am loath to believe that
occasion for such exertion of the fed
eral powers will arise, being confident
that any claim to interfere with the ma
ttonal rights under the judicial author
ity of the state of Virginia will be
promtiy disposed of and denied by the
chancery court. For this reason l shall
defer answering that question"

Washington, June 20.-The time of
the Cabinet meeting yesterday was con-
sumed in large part by the considera-
tfon of the legal questions involved in
the decision of the United States gov
ernment to disregard the decision of
the court of Virginia and seize the un-
completed gunboat Galveston at the
Trigg shipyards in Richmond
The Cabinet, after considering the
opinion of Attorney General Knox,
unanimously decided that the govern
ment case was sound and the program
should be pursued. An effort will be
made to launch the boat next Monday
if conditions permit.
At the Cabinet meeting Attorney
General Knox presented a carefully
prepared opinion. strongly affirming
the right of the government to disre-
gard the injunction granted yesterday
in the Virginia court. which forbids the
resumption of work on the Galveston
pending settlement of the claim of
the sub-contractors, who have not been
paid for material furnished.
In his opinion, addressed to the Pres
ident. Attorney General Knox says that
the letter to Secretary Moody raises
the question of right and power of the
United States to take immediate and
complete possession for all purposes of
vessels of the United States in course
of completion under contracts with
ship builders where there has been a
breach of contract with the latter Mr..
Knox continues:
THE right of a party in ordinary
litigation to a release of property from
attachment upon giving a bond for in
demnity. is fundamental. 1t manifest

FILINGS ALLOWED
IN GORE CANON

Denver, June 20.-According to a
dispatch received yesterday by the New
Century Power and Light Company,
the general land Office at Washington
has allowed the filings of the company
in Gore canon in Grand county The
Moffat road and the New Century com
pany have been fighting for the pos
session of this canon for some time.
These filings. approved by the gen
eral land office, call for a tunnel in the
canon which is to take the water from
the canon after the great dam has
been built from wall to wall to hold
the water. 1t is thought that these ap-
proved filings of the New Century
company will not interfere with the
Moffat road running through the canon
however, as their filings will also prob
ably be approved. since there are no
others before the general land office
asking for a right of way for rail-
road.
The New Century company has al
ready the right to build its dam, and
according to the recent approval for
the tunnel they can now proceed with
their plans. but to stop them the Moffat
company has bought school lands near
the canon which would have to be in
undated in the carrying out of their
reservoir scheme.
Injunctions by both sides are pend
ing before Judge France in Grand
county, one to prevent the construc-
ton of the dam. and the other to pre-
vent the construction of the railroad
An effort is being made to settle the
matter peacably, but If this should fail
a long legal battle will probably en-
sue.
