EMPRESS HAS LARK
Czarina's Sister Wins by Her
Democratic Manners.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 27.-The
war seems to have been forgotten as
st. Petersburg prepares for the holiday
of Palm week, which began tonight.
Wooden stalls have been erected on
the squares and on the boulevards.
where toys and dainties in imitation OF
palms will provide a roaring trade I'M
til Passion week suspends the merr1-
nlent.
The whole city is talking about the
midnight drive Of the young empress
around the capital. She does not limit
her peregrinations to the Newski Pros
pect and fashionable thoroughfares but
visits most of the out the-way sub
urbs, where the appearance of the I'M
perial carriage, with it's bedangled
coachmen and Respondent Cossack
footmen, creates the utmost conster-
nation. The police are purposely not
warned of these expeditions in order
to avoid appearance of generalization.
The empress is always accompanied by
her eldest sister, the Grand Duchess
Elizabeth, who is here on a visit from
MOSCOW. The idea Of these delightful
escapades was suggested by the Grand
Duchess Elizabeth, who is fond of 60
ing among the people and freeing her.
self at every opportunity from the
tranlnels of etiquette.
The Grand Duchess Elizabeth is a
high favorite with the masses on ac-
count of her democratic ways. She
has succeeded in raising enormous
sums for the war from wealthy Mos
COW merchants by the sheer charm of
her cordial manner. She invited the
merchants to a bazaar. shook hands
with them, addressing them by their
patronymics, and gave them refresh
ments with her own hands. She also
called upon their wives and drank tea
with them, although she dislikes that
beverage.
The emperor's attitude toward the
people is shown by the orders given to
the coachman who drives the imperial
coach. He has been instructed that he
must stop when he sees anybody de-
string to present petition. When the
carriage is stopped the little Grand
Duchess Olga gravely rises, takes the
petition, smiles sweetly and bows the
document home to her father. While the
heir apparent was driving the other
day, a man holding out petition ap-
preached. A policeman seized him, but
the heir to the throne ordered the
t coachman to halt. rebuked the police
man and accepted the petition.

s.
NAPLES, March 27-The Osserva-
tore Romano, the. organ of the Vati-
can, publishes a welcome to the en-
peror Of Germany which is supposed
to be inspired by the pope. The paper,
in praising the emperor, says:
1.-THE impressive attitude of the mon
arch at this moment is an emblem of a
programme which personifies the best
form of modern civilization and shows
it to be a modern, progressive nation,
unnecessary to drive out monks and
nuns, to impose atheism in the schools.
to violently silence the bishops and to
tire whole people with an unwonted,
uncomprehended struggle.
The article is considered to be con-
firmatory Of the strong words address
ed by the pope to France in the speech
of March 10, which it is expected may
lead to a rupture of the concerdat.
King Victor Emmanuel, accompanied
by Foreign Minister Titonnf, arrived
here at noon and shortly afterwards
boarded the German imperial yacht
Hohenzollern. After lunching with En-
peror William the king went on board
the Italian flagship Stella, where he
was rejoined by the emperor, with
whom he inspected the Italian feet,
composed of fifteen warships, besides
torpedo boats. The inspection oc-
Cured amid the booming Of cannon,
the cheers of the crews and great
display Of enthusiasm on the part of
the population of Naples. During the
luncheon on the Hohenzollern King
Victor Emmanuel and Emperor Will
liam toasted each other.
While the king was driving from the
station to harbor, man pushed
through the crowd and approached the
royal carriage, trying to hand petit
ton to the king. The man was ar
rested and taken to the police station,
where he was identified as an expo
Iceman, who on the occasion Of for
mer visit of King Emmanuel to Ma

COTTON KING ALLEGES
BROKEN AGREEMENT
SulIy BIames His Partners and Will
Hold Them Responsible.

NEW YORK, March 27.- John R.
Dospassos, who has been retained for
Daniel J. Sully & Co., gave out the fol-
lowing statement this afternoon:
1T have had several hours converse
ton with Mr. Sully and witnesses and
l am perfectly satisfied with the con-
dition as disclosed. The failure of Mr.
Sully on the information he and his
witnesses have disclosed was entirely
unnecessary and brought about by
direct breach of agreement between
himself and Messrs. Hawley and Ray.
According to the evidence presented,
they were partners in fact and in law
and were consequently as, much inter-
ested as Mr.. Sully in protecting the IN
terests which they were carrying to-
gether.
"As Mr.. Sully claims, instead of adj
vancing the money which they agreed
to they shuff1ed off and evaded their
responsibility by ambiguous responses
until it was too late for Mr.. Sully to
resist the tide which swept through
the cotton market and temporarily en-
quilted it. Mr.. Sully, acting under our
advice, has placed himself in close con-
nection with his creditors and pro-
poses to cooperate with them in COM
polling Hawley and Ray to pay all
money which they are liable for under
the circumstances disclosed to us. Mr..
Sully does not ask for any diminution
in any indebtedness which he is re-
sponsible for. In fact, he is willing to
assume liabilities which we have adj
vised him he is not bound to meet. We
hope that the creditors will make sorHe
reasonable arrangement with Mr. Sully
and restore him to a position where he
can act without a load upon his Shout
ders such as created by proceedings in
involuntary bankruptcy"

WASHINGTON, D. c., March III
The state department today received a
telegram from Consul General Foster,
at Ottawa, in reply to it's inquiry re-
garding private advices that the Cana
dian government had passed an order
in council putting in force a coasting
law In Canada similar to that of the
United States. American transporta-
ton companies on the Pacific coast are
up in arms against the reported order,
for 1t will seriously affect the Transport
tation Of goods between Vancouver and
Dawson, by way of the Yukon river,
Alaska. Consul General Fosters reply
was:
"The commissioner of customs stated
yesterday that the newspaper report
regarding American vessels at Van
couver was incorrept The regulation
of Jan. %, 1903, required Transports
ton in Canadian vessels, but this regu-.
lation was subsequently waived for
1908. 1t has not yet been waived for
1904, but may be later"
The department will watch the sit
uation closely, and If the order gets
into effect measures of retaliation Will
probably be devised by this govern
ment The effect may be to arouse ill
feeling between the two countries and
to postpone the hope of Canadian trade
reciprocity. Walter 3. Clark.

FRENCH GOVERNMENT
PROTESTS TO VATICAN
Claim Is Made That the Pope Failed &c
Abide by the concordat.

PARIS, March 27-A protest against
the recent utterances of the pope
against France has been made by M.
Nicard, the French ambassador at the
Vatican, to Papal Secretary of State
Merry del Val. It Is expected that 1t
will suffice to give formal expression to
the governments disapproval Of the
pope's language.
Information reaching government
quarters shows that the members of
the sacred college are much divided
over the pope's utterances, some re-.
garding them as most unwise and I'M
called for. It also appears that the
cardinals were completely taken by
surprise. Only a few days before he
received a delegation of French pill
grims, when it was thought he might
make some allusion to France. Having
not made 1t then the cardinals were
satisfied the pope would not discuss
France at any time.
The incident is regarded as showing
the new pope's tendency to carry out
his personal ideas, Irrespective of the
views Of the sacred college. The gov
ernments protest to the Vatican is un-
derstood to have been as follows:

could come to no agreement The bill
provides that "any person who shall,

ton thereof, willfully and maliciously
kill or cause the death of the president
or vice president of the United States,

1.-THE discourse by the holy father on
ithe occasion of the feast Of st. Jo-
seph constitutes a public criticism up
on the policy of France. This criticism
is chiefly unacceptable in being opposed
to the stipulations of. the concordat
which regulates the relations between
the holy see and France. For this rea-
son the French government deems 1t to
be It's duty to formally protest to the
cardinal secretary of state against
