Later in the day, when M. Muravieff was
on train journeying to Peterhof to report
the case in person TO the emperor, a stone
was hurled through the minister's compart-
ment, narrowly missing him. Although the
superstitious consider this bad omen, and
see in 1t a connection with the Won Plehve
plot, the police think the culprit probably
was a mischievous boy.
The recovery of Lego, alias Porozef, the
assassin of Won Plehve. Is practically GER
tain. He is entirely conscious. although
suffering acute pain In consequence of the
operation in extracting the spnters from
his abdomen, face and arm. Though taci-
turn he no longer refuses to talk. He
speaks Russian fiuently, but with a foreign
accent, and declares he had no accomplces.
The assassin carefully avoids giving the
slightest clue to his identity. He admits 1t
was a carefully planned crime. says he was
animated by humanitarian motives and
does not express the slightest regret.

GOVERNMENT AID.
Anti-Boycott Association Shows Itself
Today.


CHICAGO July OFF the Freight Han
dlers' Union should attempt to enforce an
order forbidding all members from ham
ding consignments to and from the stock

American Anti-Boycott Association and the
federal authorities will be asked to inter-
yene So asserted Daniel Davenport, ex-
ecutive agent of the association, who ar
rived in Chicago from Bridgeport, Conn.,,
today The freight handlers order was
adopted by its council and then suspended
pending a call from President Donnelly
Enforcement of an order of that KIND
would be a gross violation of the federal
statute" said Mr.. Davenport. THE law
provides the heaviest penalties for such an
act. If the freight handlers made the at
tempt they would have the federal author
tiles down on them in minute, and l am
here to look out for the interests of our
members The association is prepared to
invoke assistance from the government.
Freight handling comes within the bust
ness of a common carrier and any refusal
of the freight handlers to handle any par
ticular consignments would be discrimina-
ton and a criminal conspiracy. This threat
is similar to the one in the case of Debs in
the A. r. u strike of 1894"
I'VE will order freight handlers not to
touch consignments from the trust packers
just the moment that President Donnelly
asks it," declared President Curran of the
freight handlers today. He added: THAT
request may come at any moment"
When President Curran was told that Mr..
Davenport threatened an injunction against
the freight handlers in the event Of a SYM
pathetic boycott against the packers ship
ments, the labor leader smiled Mr..
Davenport and his ant-boycott association
is getting to be standard joke in the in

dire things against unions, but l have yet
to discover that he has accomplished any

RIoTING AT KANSAS CITY.
Strikers Attacked Negro Policeman
Shot Assailants.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July 29.-Rioting
was renewed in the packing house district
today, when a mob of strikers attacked L.
King, a negro special policeman, as he was
entering the plant of Armour & Co. The
mob threw stones and King ran, but he
finally made stand and shot two Of his
assaiIants, Mat Sullivan and Max Lameska,
neither Of whom was seriously wounded.
Sullivan is deputy sheriff. When King
began to shoot his assailants came to halt
and began to scatter. Sullivan fell with a
bullet wound in his thigh, and close by him
Lameska limped away, with bullet in his
ankle.
King emptied his revolver, while the mob
scattered, fleeing in all directions When a
squad of police reached the scene most of
the men had escaped, but six of them, in
Guiding Sullivan, were arrested.

Mo POPULAR Excitement.

Great as was the shock produced by Won
Plehve's death as the universal recognition
in Russia that the strongest figure in the
government was laid low, there is moi a
particle of evidence of popular excitement
NJ. Dournovo, the under secretary of posts
and telegraphs, who has been appointed
acting minister of the interior, as the late
Won PlehveS senior associate, may remain
in charge of the ministry for some time,
but he is not considered likely TO be con-
firmed He is not DESTROYS of permanently
assuming the heavy task of Won Plehve' s
successor.
Many projects undertaken by Won Plehve,
like administrative reforms. are at COM
piete standstill as the result of the death
of the man who had all the strings in his
own hands. The appointment of Won
PlehVe'S successor is already encountering
unexpected difficulties. The popular voice
designating M. White does not represent
the views in official quarters, where, per-
haps, there exist jealousies caused by the
strong personality of the former finance
minister. In official quarters the list of
candidates, who are numerous, is headed
by NJ. Muravieff, the minister of justice;
Prince Obelinsky, the governor general Of
Finland, and Governor General Klefels of
kieff.

cuttinu Out the Cream Ripener.

Are the days of the cream ripener
numbered asks the Dairy and Produce
Review, and adds: 1t looks a bit that
way, regardless of the fact that there
are still thousands of creamerles in the
land whose buttermakers do not know
what modern ripener really is. True,
they have been ripening their cream in
a 'ripener," but this appliance has in
most cases been only an open vat with
double wall, in which water is run with
the object of controlling the tempera-
ture. which was possible only to linn
tied extent. Within the last few years,
however machines have been at the
disposal of buttermakers whereby this
control has been almost completely in
the hands of the buttermaker, and one
of these modern and thoroughly me-
chanical devices is indispensable to a
creamery.
But just as the stage of perfection,
or satisfaction, in cream ripeners has
been reached, along comes suggestion
to the effect that not only they, but
the ripening process in butteramking,
NAV be cut out with profit, method
to which we have already referred
To the experienced buttermaker this
seemed like theory only, but with but
ter made according to this theory on
the markets of Canada for over yea
there must be something more than
mere theory about it.
The idea of churning unripened
cream was promulgated by the ST. Hya-
cinthe dairy school in Quebec, Canada.
1t does by no means ignore the import
ant part that bacteria play in produc-
ing flavor but on the contrary is based
strictly on psychological principles.
By the new method the bacteria are
supposed to do their work after the
butter is churned, and in order to nave
the right bacterial action the purpose
must be to secure the right forms OF
bacteria. In this lies the secret of sue
cess in the new method, If we under
stand it rightly from the report which
has been issued in regard to the new
idea in buttermaking. AS soon as the
cream is skinned 1t is pasteurized by
heating to 14O degrees for twenty mi,
utes "a moderate temperature) and
cooled to SO degrees or lower. This
cream is then ready to be inoculated
with the desired form of bacteria in
the form of a starter made from pure
culture With this feature progressive
buttermakers are already familiar.
Immediately after adding liberal
amount of starter GO to 80 per cent
the cream is ready for churnlng, after
which the butter is manipulated in the
usual manner, and a few days after be-
ing made develops a high, uniform
flavor.
That the method is something more
than theory appears from the TACT
that it has been employed for three
years by the st. Hyacinthe dairy school
in charge of Prof. ]. D. Leclair, the
originator of the method This butter
has been on the most exacting Can
dian markets and has stood the test in
competition with the very best Cana
dian creamery butter. At three con-
tests held at Sherbrook, Toronto and
Ottawa butter made by this method
won four first prizes and one second
all of which goes to show that there is
something in the method that deserves
consideration by every buttermaker.

Facts About Cooling Milk.

Facts About Cooling Milk.
A great many farmers who produce
milk either for the creamery, the
cheese factory or for city use manifest
but little interest in the proper cooling
of that milk When we come to get
down to the actual state of their minds
on that subject, we find that they have
little or no scientific knowledge about
the sanitary care of milk. AS one man
expressed himself last winter when
asked what he thought of Prof. Pear
sons lecture on "The Care of Milk: "
WELL" he said, maybe it's all well
enough, but guess he don't know any
more about milk than do" Here was
a man who is like thousands of others.
They have never read or studied on
the milk question. There is vast
store of knowledge concerning milk
that they know absolutely nothing
about, and so they will reject knowl-
edge and information as duck sheds
water. This class of men produce great
quantities of milk. They are the prin-
cipal source of trouble at the cheese
factory and creamery. It is impossible
to instruct them, for they have so little
information to build on. There is an
rapidly growing larger, who eagerly
welcome all practical knowledge that
will help them to make better article
of food out of their milk.
The following interesting figures from
Dr. Biggs, chief medical officer of the
New York board of health, are very in
structive. He says:
Some time ago we made obserVa-
tions on the same milk at different
times after it was drawn. At the time
it was taken from the pail after milk
ing (great care having been taken) 1t
contained $50 bacteria to the cubic CEN
timeter (about a quarter Of teaspoon
fuD After keeping that milk for "a
hours at a temperature of 40 degrees
the number of bacteria had not in
creased at all. In a portion OF the
same milk kept at As degrees the num-
Der had increased to 500; at so de-
grees the number had increased to
1,500; at So degrees they increased to
$4,000; at 60 degrees the original $50
germs had increased in "a hours to
100000 to the cubic centimeter-the
only difference in these specimens be-
ing the temperature at which the milk
had been kept for "a hours. We have
found on hot summer nights in some
of the grocery milk on the lower East
Side in New York that as high as 2OO,-
100000 to 250,000,000 bacteria were
present in every cubic centimeter-
SO0,OOO,OOO to 1,OO0,O00,000 to the tea
spoonful"
Think of milk being sold under such
conditions. The first factor is cleanli-
ness at the dairy. The second is the
rapid cooling of the milk and keeping
1t cool. The third is the age of the
milk. AS will be seen, the great and
important thing to do is to cool the
milk as soon as it is drawn.
These are facts which every farmer
who produces milk should know. He
should be guided in the handling OF his
milk by such knowledge, and he should
provide means for the prompt cooling
