THE RUSSIAN PRESS.
While Not Given Absolute Freedom,
Restrictions Have Been Greatly
Relaxed.

st. Petersburg, Oct. 31.-The report
published in Paris on October % and
which subsequently was cabled to the
United States, that the emperor is about
to issue manifesto according almost
complete freedom to the press, so far
as can be ascertained here, is untrue,
and receives no credence in the best in
formed circles. 1t is true, however, that
as compared with the administrations
of M. Plehve and his predecessors in the
ministry of the interior, the restric-
lions on the press have been so relaxed
that the newspapers feel that they are
almost enjoying actual freedom, al
though it not the sort of freedom en-
joyed under constitutional govern
ments. 1t is also true that a project of
reform of the press administration is
under consideration, which Is expected
to still further relax existing restric-
tons.

ELEVATOR COLlAPSES.
Structure at Buffalo, Containing 37O,-
600 Bushels of Barley, Slips
Into the Water

Buffalo, N. Y, Oct. 31--From some
cause which cannot be definitely ex-
planned, the Ontario elevator collapsed
Sunday and sank into the waters of the
Evans slip. The elevator contained
about 100000 bushels of barley, large
portion of which lies at the bottom OF
the slip. The loss on the grain and
the buildngis estimated at $3.50 900.
The Ontario was built 10 years ago, and
had been In active operation all of this
season. Various reasons have been
given as to the cause of the collapse, but
as nearly as could be learned, 1t had its
origin in the weakening of the founda-
tons about the dock. II is known that
the land about the elevator contains
large deposits of qnicksand, and II is
considered probable that the accident
was due to a settling of the earth on the
dock side caused by the action of the
water on bed of this quicksand. The
slip has been deepened during the last
two years, and this also may have
weakened the dock foundations.

PIG RAN AGAINST SABER.
Hungry Soldiers Got Nice Mess Of
Pork in Way That May Be
Termed Providential.

Two or three weeks after the battle
of Shiloh our company, under COM
mand of Lieut.. B. F. Hyde, was sent
out to stand picket on Purdy road near
a place known as Deals Lane. Orders
were then very strict against molesting
anything belonging to the southern peo-
pie, and, of course. We all, officers and
men, were expected to obey the orders
of our superior officers; but accidents
would happen sometimes, and a chicken
or pig would get killed occasionally.
One of these accidents happened while
we were standing picket at Deals Lane.
Comrade Enoch Hunter was detected
SHINING fine fat pig short distance
from the reserve, while off duty. Lieut..
Hyde began to reprimand him for steal
ing a pig. Enoch said he had not stolen
the pig; furthermore, that company
boys were never known to steal any
thing. The lieutenant demanded an
explanation.
Well" said Enoch, 81 went out In the
woods a short distance and sat down

THE PRESIDENTS CALL.
Outline of Scope Of the Proposed
Second Hague Peace
Conference.

Washington, Oct. 31.-In circular
note Secretary Hay has carried out the
presidents instructions relative to pro-
posing second Hague conference. The
note not only contemplates the reas-
sembling of The Hague conference for
the consideration of questions specif-
ically mentioned by the original. con-
ference, as demanding further attention.
such as the rights and duties of neu-
trails; the inviolability of private prop
erty in naval warfare and the lombard
ment of ports'by naval forces, but goes
further by practically indorsing the
project of a general system of arbitra-
ton treaties and the establishment OF
an international congress to meet peri
odically in the interests Of peace. The
issue of the call while the present war IS
in progress is justified by the fact that
the first Hague conference was called
before our treaty of peace with Spain
was concluded.

TRAGEDY IN IOWA.
Farmer Fatally Injuries His Wife and
Then Kills Himself-Financial
Troubles the Cause.

Des Moines, Ia, Oct. 29.-William Ped
dicord, farmer living about eight miles
southwest of Perry, attacked his wife
with club Friday morning, intlicting
injuries from which she cannot re-
cover. and then killed himself.
Peddicord and his wife arose early
and went to the barnyard to do the milk
ing, and it was there the attack on the
woman was made. One oftheir children
became alarmed at the prolonged abb
sence of the parents, and discovered the
mother unconscious from horrible
bruises, and Peddicord's dead body in
a cornfield adjoining the barn lot The
family was well respected, and ap-
parently well-to-do, although 1t has
developed that Peddicord owed 81, 200. of
. which his wife was ignorant. He feared
the revelation of their true financial con-
dition, the farm being legacy to Mrs
Peddicord and in her name.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Total Cost of Maintaining the System
for Year Ending June 80,
Was 1881 ,457 ,625.

Washington, Oct 31.-The report
OF the commissioner of education for
the fiscal year ending June 80, 1904,
made public by the secretary of the in
terror, shows that 16,009,36l pupils, or
20 per cent of the entire population of
the country, attended the public
schools during that year. AS compared
with the previous six years, this per-
centage shows slight decrease in the
lumber of pupils as compared with
the total population. The total cost OF
the public school system is given as
$251 ,457 ,625. This is in increase of
S16,000,000 over the previous year. 1t
amounts to $315 per capita Of total
reputation, and S22.75 per capita per
pupil. Since 1870 the proportion Of
male teachers has decreased from 80
per cent. of the entire number to &c
per cent. Of the entire number OF the
past year The average compensation
for male teachers last year was S49.98.
land S4051 for females. This is a
slight increase over the previous year.
The enrolment in the private schools
for the year is given as 1,093,S76. BY
the addition of pupils in elementary
schools, academies, institutions for
higher education, evening schools,
business schools, private kindergar-
tens, Indian schools, state schools and
schools for defective orphans, the
grand total of 1851 1S pupils is re-
ported. The report estimates that the
average schooling given to each in
habitant in 1870 was 672 days, and in
1903, 1904 days. The report shows
that last year 1,57S,632 colored chill
dren were enrolled in the common
schools for that race in the former 16
slave states and the District of Column
bia. The enrolment in 1877, the first
year statistics were taken of the col
ored schools, was ST., 506. Since 1876,
1t is estimated that $130,00000O has
been expended in the education of the
colored children in the former slave
states, and nearly s600,O000OO for the
same purpose for the white children of
the same section. Ninety-six reform
schools are recorded. with 31,46S in
mates, 21,6O3 of whom are learning
useful trades.

MEL AFTER FoRFY YEARS.
Methodist Bishop II Reminded Of .
War Incident Which Does
Credit to His Bravery.

Bishop Moore and L. s. Calvin, Of
Long Beach, met on recent Sunday in
Los Angeles for the first time in just
40 years to the day.
Their last meeting was on the bat
tlefield of "Rockyface Ridge" in Geor-
gia, on May 8, 1864. Bishop Moore.
then lieutenant colonel of the One Hun
dred and Twenty-fifth Ohio cavalry, had
just led his regiment to the top Of the
ridge in charge against the confeder-
ate forces. The task was difficult, and
the column had halted on the brow to
fire volley at the enemy. Col. Moore
had sent his horse to the rear, and was
standing within three feet of Corporal
L. 8. Calvin, Of company A, when rife
ball struck the corporal in the left tenn
pie; the bullet passed downward
through the mouth, nearly severing the
tongue, and came out through the cloth
ing Of Col. Moore, but. having spent its
force, it only bruised his hip.
The corporal, whose power Of speech
was gone, gave signs Of his conviction
that death was near. But Moore, with
that spirit Of hopefulness and cheer
which has characterized his subsequent
life, washed the wound of his fallen COM
rade, and said: Cheer up; you're worth
hundred dead men yet" This late
meeting proved the truthfulness of hts
words, for out here in California, after
40 years Of separation, these old soldiers
met and embraced each other like chill
dren
Bishop Moore has kept that bullet all
these years as relic Of the war. He has
told its history a thousand times. and
had supposed that Corporal Calvin
passed many years ago to his final rest
ing place. The other day when they met,
Calvin claimed the bullet, and the bish-
op gladly promised to return it to him
as soon as he reached his home.
Bishop Moore declared that Calvin
saved his life. for had that bullet missed
Calvin, the colonel would surely have
been the victim of its deadly power.
Corporal L. S. Calvin, with fearful eyes
and thankful heart, listened to sermon
by his old colonel. and the bishop looked
down into the upturned face of his for
mer comrade with tenderness of af-
lection which years OF experience and
memory had deepened into love al
most divine.-Western Christian Ad-
vocate.

and came in with three big boxes Of
gingerbread. Nothing ever tasted so
good to me as that gingerbread, and /
never forgot the captain. In the march
to Louisville our company OBJ was rear
guard, and the men were so exhausted
they went to sleep standing. On one
occasion l went to sleep and was over

shopping along in the rear, walked me
up. l never forgot John for that.
when we left Lexington our haver-
sacks were like old Mother HUBBARD
cupboard. and, despite the gingerbread,
we were soon hungry. We were not al
lowed to forage, and after an all days
and an all nights march we were pas

development. We were ordered to build
fires and cook the corn, but some of the
boys were so blamed hungry they could
not wait for the corn to cook, but ate ii
raw, and others ate it half cooked and
thought 1t was good That was our
hardest experience in the army. We got
the hot end of the poker first.
Later in the war. when We were in
Gen. Jimmy Morgan's brigade, and were
cruising down near Gainesville, Ala,
for Hood, there was good deal of forag-
ing in spite Of the generals prejudices
against it. There were good many
sheep in the neighborhood, and some
of them fell by the way. AS the boys
came in loaded with mutton. they were
captured by Gen. Morgan's provost
guards, taken to headquarters, despoiled
Of their mutton, and advised to go and
sin no more. The boys were at a dis
advantage, but they had their revenge
among those severely reprimanded
at headquarters was a member Of the
One Hundred and Twenty-first Ohlc
regiment. and he was made the instru-
ment of revenge. He had noticed very
likely bloodhound out in the country
and he went back, killed the hound

AS he had supposed he would be. he
was arrested by order of Brick Top.
adjutant general of the division, and
compelled to unload his mutton al
headquarters. II was prepared for sup
per for Brick Tops mess. After the
supper had been eaten the story was
told to the boys in camp, and there was
grief in that mess for several days"

Gen. Miles was discussing army meth
DDS ancient and modern, and defending
the present systems and officers. In
calling attention to changed conditions,
he remarked to a New York Tribune
man:
What would George Washington
have done II he had had telephone in
struments In his various headquarters,
and newspaper correspondents there
who sent out his orders so that they
were known to the public before they
reached the officers for whom they were
intended?
THE telephone is a great institution;
but am afraid that the famous fighters
OF the past would not have appreciated
It, never use one, that l do not think
of Judge Albion w. Tourgee's descrip-
ton Of the instrument:
"A man. he said. stands in front OF
a hole in the wall and yells: "Hello!'
He gets no answer. and repeats the call
About the third time he leaves on the
last syllable. and the fourth time he puts
the last syllable FIRST"

Explosion Causes Heavy Loss Of Life
I'm Colorado-From 80 to go
Are Dead.

Trinidad. Col, Oct. pa terrific
explosion occurred at Mine No. 8, Of
the Rocky Mountain Fuel q Iron com.
pany. at Teroio, 40 miles due west OF
Trinidad. Friday afternoon, and the
number of dead is. variously placed
between 80 and 60 men. The number
reported as having gone into the mine
In the morning was II miners and four
company men. In the afternoon many
more miners are known to have gone
into the mine, and the exact number
of dead may never be known. as the
mine Is burning and in all likelihood
the bodies will be cremated. A large
number OF mine sfficials left here as
soon as word of the accident was re-
ceived. Company doctors were picked
up along the line, as well as all other
available physicians.
The mine in which the accident oc-
Cured works 80 men and 1t is believed
that at least 60 men were In the mine
at the time. News of the ex.
plosion brought assistance from
the adjacent camps. and hundreds
of men are trying TO get INTO
the mine. Deadly fumes overcome the
rescuers frequently, but their places
are Immediately taken by others ready
to risk their lives. 1t is not thought
possible that anyone in the mine can
escape death, IL they are not all dead
already. Nearly all the miners en-
ployed are, Slavs. The mine was
opened only "a year ago and extended
1000 feet into the hill. The explosion
Is supposed to have been caused by
dust. But one body has been recov-
cred, that of T. Duran, driver, who
was just entering the tunnel when the
explosion occurred. He was torn and
burned almost beyond recognition. All
mines within a radius Of 20 miles
have been shut down and the miners
are on the way to assist in the rescue
Of the bodies.
