marching on this city at the head of
a large number of insurgents. The

San Pedro de Macoris has declared

There is great depression in busi-
ness circles as the result of the con-
stant disturbances of the financial sit

Government is very bad owing to the
fact that the duties were mortgaged in
advance by the Government of Presi-

TUCKER, Utah, Dec. 25.-Frank Du-

senger on a Rio Grande train, was ap-
preached by the conductor and asked
for his ticket The passenger gave a
startled glance at the railroad official,
put his hand to his left waistcoat
pocket, gave a convulsive movement
and expired.
The passengers death was not no.

thought Dubois had merely commenced
hunt for a displaced ticket. The
trainman walked away and friends of
Dubois approached the latter, who sat
erect, his head slightly to one side.
They chatted for some time before
some one addressed a remark direct to
Dubois, and it was then discovered that
he was dead.
The friends of Dubois pulled his hat
down over his eyes and allowed the
body to remain in a sitting posture un-
til the train reached Salt Lake City
Many passengers noticed the form but
had no idea they were travelling with a
corpse.
Dubois had been i'll for some time

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Dec. 25.-
A mob of angry women attacked
number of deputy sheriffs who were
making evictions at Clear Creek, Car
bon County, to-day, forcing the guards
to retreat after hot battle.
The deputy sheriffs in the employ of
the coal company were attempting to
carry cut orders to force all Unmarried
men to- leave the property of the com
pany. Legal notices had previously
been served on all occupying company
houses in the coal camp. The married
men were given until the 31st to va
cate.
The guards moved from house to
house, forcing the men to leave their
hcmes, until they came to a place
where an Italian woman was employed
as cook. When she saw the armed
guards enter the room she attacked
one of them. striking him in the face
with sufficient force to draw blood.
The other guards were about to place
her under arrest, when mob of women
who had gathered outside rushed to
her rescue and attacked the deputy
sheriffs in force.
For a few minutes there was
pitched battle, the women hitting, kick
ing. biting and scratching.
The officers protected themselves as
best they could, but were finally forced
to retreat. The victorious women then
marched up the road singing in Italian
a song of victory.
Later the guards returned with rein
forcements and succeeded in evicting
the strikers without further resistance.
The striking miners took no part in
the disturbance and urged the women
to desist.
On the last day of the month the
work of evicting the married strikers
will commence. The Utah Fuel Com
pany officials declare that they expect
serious trouble at that date. but the
union leaders declare that the strikers
will make no resistance not author

RUSSIA TAKES TIME
TO CONSIDER CLAIMS
PRESENTED BY JAPAN
ST PETERSBURG. Dec. Is.

ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 25.
The Russian Government IS
still considering the reply of the
Japanese Government to its note
which was sent in answer to
Japan's demands relating to the
situation in the Orient. a recon-
sideration of the proposals made
in the Russian note IS considered
as a matter of course here. Rus
sia has never been disposed to
take any step which would lead to
ali abrupt termination OF the ne
gotiations with Japan.
In answer to inquiries the Rus
sian Foreign Office has always in
sisted that the Russian proposals
were so liberal that it would be
scarcely probable to conceive any
further concessions. While the
Foreign Office is unwilling to adj
NIT that Russia is prepared to OF
fer more than the concessions out
lined in the last note, it is consld-
cred possible that the Government
may suggest changes by which the
Russian requirements may be met
and satisfaction given to Japan.
A rulnor has been circulated
here that the United States Gov
ernrnent is still inclined to suggest
the reference of the difficulties
between Russia and Japan to The
Hague arbitration tribunal, but
this rurnor is believed to be mere
ly the echo of a former sugges-
ton made in the press of the
United States.
TOXIC. Dec. 25.-At a din
ner given by the Oriental Associa-
ton tonight Former Minister
Kato, who presided, said he deep
" regretted that the people had
not been taken into the confidence
of the Government regarding the
position of affairs between Japan
and Russia. Nevertheless, he
said, should the Emperor declare
war, the nation would be found
ready to give him unanimous sup
port.
Count Okuna, the former Pre-
mier, said he agreed with the view
expressed by Mr.. Kato, and he
thought it was now high time to
let the people know the actual
position occupied by the Govern
ment. He also declared that not
only feeling Of chivalry but a
desire for self-preservation re-
quired that Japan should buttress
the integrity of China. Both
speakers thought that the situa-
ton had reached an extremely
critical stage.
