The mill gates will he opened at the usual

ARDovA SEIZURE NOT AFFAIR OF U. S
Supplies for Philippine Forces Sent in Trans
ports in American Bottoms.

Washington July 24.-Any action which may
bc taken regarding the seizure Of the British
ship Ardova b. the Russian volunteer fleet
steamer Smolcnsk Is n matter for the British
government. Il is not one which In the least
concerns the United States This IS the view
taken in official circles here However the de-
cisiop Of the Russian government to withdraw
the authority given to the volunteer fleet 10
make searches and seizures smpfes the situa-
tom materially. Presumably in view Of this
new attitude Of the Russian government, the
Ardova VIII ne released promptly. the seizure
disavowod and the incident will be closed with
out delay.
There arc no shipments of stores other
supplies made by the army or the navy for the
Philippines carried in other than American bot
toms Congress. by special enactment at its last
session expressly prohibited such shipments in
foreign vessels. As consequence all supplies
for tho army or navy in the Philippines
ried either in army transports, OF, where these
ar, not available. in American bottoms. An
ception to this. however. may prevail where
GOODS are furnished by contract, in which case

RENT WAR IS WAGED BY
Il NEW "JOAN OF ARC
Slender Girl of Seventeen Organ
ICES New York'S East Side
Against Landlords EXactionS.

NEW YORK, April 1O.-Hailed as the
Joan of Arc of the East Side by the thou
sands of poor tenants who stand in danger
of eviction by their landlords if they do not
submit to a raise in their rents Miss Bertha
Leibson, a slight girl of seventeen, whose
parents are themselves victims of the rent
increase, has evolved a campaign of action
for relief from the distressing situation,
and already has succeeded in raising
large amount of money with which at
torneys will be hired to combat the eX-
cessive rents demanded.
Mass meeting after mass meeting has
been planned by this girl and her followers,
all of which will be held during the next
few days, and if the plan for relief fails
it will not be through any want of energy
on the part of Miss Leibson.
Already an organization has been formed
called the New York Protective Rent AS
ISOLATION, which will try 10 find way for
the tenants of the East Side tenements to
escape from paying what is to them enor-
nous rentals, and Miss Leibson has been
elected treasurer and secretary or the as
ISOLATION.
Plans have been made for monster pa
rade of the poor, which will be carried
out if a permit can be obtained from Mayor
Mcclellan.
Once has a committee of three, made up
of Miss Leibson and two men of the Pro-
10 see the mayor for such a purpose, but
they were refused admittance by the po-
iceman at the door.
On houses where rents have been raised
notices printed in Hebrew and English
have been pasted warning prospective ten
ants of what they may hope to receive If
they hire rooms there. The notices were
the idea of Miss Leibson, and thousands
of them have been placarded on the doors
OF East Side tenements They read:
tenants; Keep away from this house.
In the name of your children ask
you not to hire any rooms in this house,
as the house is on strike because the rent
is raised by the landlord, and the rent is
raised every month and we want TO put
a stop to it once for all"
Keep away. THE COMMITTEE.'
Miss Leibson is the only daughter Of Ely
Leibson, a dyer ard cloakmaker of No. 246

BURGLAR JIM" STABBED

Robbed Indiana Banks, Prob
ably Fatally Wounded.
AN ACT OF REVENGE

COLUMBUS, o., April 1O.-In revenge for
an alleged betrayal George Duncan, a pris-
oner. to-day stabbed and probably fatally
wounded Burglar jim Anderson, another
prisoner, at the Ohio penitentiary. Ander-
son was seated at a table In the large din
ing hail. when Duncan suddenly sprang
upon him from behind and inflicted six
wounds with a shoemaker's knife, which he
had managed to secrete before he was over
powered. The blade of the knife penetrated
Anderson's lung, making a dangerous
wound.
Anderson and Duncan escaped together
from the penitentiary some time ago and
were recently captured after a desperate
fight at Chillicothe, o. On being returned
to the penitentiary Anderson accused a
former guard of having aided in their es-
cape. Since that time Duncan has ex-
pressed extreme animosity toward Ander-
Anderson was suspected of having COM
mitted the recent bank robbery at Amboy,
Ind, and several postoffice robberies were
charged TO him during the time he was at
liberty after breaking from prison.

ANCIENT VOLUMES ARE
ADMIRED By THE KING
Edward of England Is a Good
Judge of the Value of Rare
Specimens of BoOkiSh Art.

LONDON, April 1O.-The King, during his
visit to the Law Socety's new building,
showed great interest in the Mendham col
lection, which forms part of the library.
This collection is rich in antiquarian lore
His Majesty noted the First Book of Ed
ward VI, and pointed out some features of
the copy to the Queen. He looked at the
Polyglot Bible and the Coverdale Bible,
also showed great interest In the plates of
and examined, in the company of Lord
Churchill, map of Africa which this queer
old work contains.
This interest in old books came somewhat
as revelation of an unsupported side to
his Majesty's character But the King is
something of a bibliophile. In the words of
one who knows, he handles old books like
a perfect lover.
His Majesty cannot be called a collector
in the ordinary sense. He is too busy TO
follow such an enhancing pursuit to the
full, and he has inherited magnificent
libraries. He buys old black-etter volumes
and early editions of English classics. His
taste for sport translates itself into a taste
for old sporting works. Finally, he is
tempted by editions de luxe of standard
works.
Many of these purchases are for presents
His Majesty has always had liking for
giving books, and when. as Prince of
Wales, he made his tour in India, he took
with him very choicely bound works, which
were presented mostly to Indian princes.
The sporting works which his Majesty
buys range from the curious old Minute
Encyclopedia Of sports and pasfimes pub
lished in the seventeenth century to the
hunting novels of Surtees in the middle of
the last century. Queer, out-of-the- way
books on less known sports attract him.
He also purchases sporting and other works
with colored plates by Rowlandson Cruik-
shank, Seymour and Leech.
Books on gardening, from the old herbals
downwards, attract him, and fine old copies
of the Eizabethan dramatists have for him
the fascination that they had for Charles
Lamb.
The King nearly always prefers morocco
levant for bindings, especially for presenta-
ton copies. For volumes of a sporting
One curious little hobby his Majesty has,
He is interested in books about walking
sticks. Most of these, both ancient or
modern, are in his possession

HERO WAS NOT ENDORSED
Presidential Aspirant's Lieutenant,
However, Tested Capacity of
Nine "Reorganizers."
SULLIVAN COUNTY COUP"
,cial to the indianapolis Journal.

Special 10 the Indianapolis Journal.
SULLIVAN, Ind, April 10.-The mystery
of the absence of resolutions indorsing
Hearst in the Hamilton township Demo
cratic convention yesterday was solved to-
day. The leader of the Hearst movement
had prepared a lengthy set of resolutions,
which he turned over to a Hearst man
with instructions to read the resolutions in
the convention. The anti-Hearst forces,
which comprise the Democratic ring,
learned of the intention to introduce the
resolutions in the convention and set about
to circumvent the Hearst crowd. The po-
litical bosses selected nine men, who, by
taking turns, finally succeeded in getting
the would-be reader of the resolutions
drunk. While the convention was in ses-
sion the resolutions reader slumbering
peacefully and did not sober up until the
convention was over. The anti-Hearst men
are greatly elated over this political coup,
but it is believed that their triumph will
be short-lived, as the Hearst resolutions
will be introduced in the county convention
Tuesday, when delegates to the state, ju-
dicial and congressional conventions will
be selected.
A strong effort is being made to have
Miers's congressional record Endorsed by the
party, but the managers say there will be
no indorsement of Miers and the delegates
will go to the Spencer convention unin-
Structed.
