Russia Conceded Much.

Paris, Jan. 12.-Reports, chiefly from
Toxic, but also from st. Petersburg
give q clear view Of the circumstances
leading up to the sudden Improvement
of h situation. They show that the
Russian answer actually reached Toxic
the night of January 6, and proved t.
be the turning point. Prior to its re.
celpt Japan had been making strenu.
GUS preparations for sending two diyis,
Ions to southern Korea. Oficial re.
ports establishing these preparation,
are beyond the slightest question. bui
the note received on the 9th disclosed
to Japan for the first time that Russia
fully conceded Japan's paramount
rights In southern Korea. Russia's con.
cession thus gives Japan practicau,
what she had been preparing to assert
by force, and accordingly the mllftary
acllVlty was suspended, as Russia,i
concession made unnecessary Japan,

To Prevent CONSUMPTION.

St. Louis, April 2.-Physicians and
others interested in the prevention or
control of tuberculosis have formed the
ST. Louis Society for the Prevention OF
tuberculosis. Officers have been
elected and an executive committee
named. There also will be appointed
a committee. consisting of two mem.
bers of the health department of the
city. two members of the medical pro-
fession, and two representatives from
the medical schools, to assist in the
work of inspection.
1t is intended at the beginning to in.
stitute a thorough inspection. corps,
which will report all cases where suf.
ferers from consumption are located
in badly ventilated apartments or sur
rounded by unhealthy conditions. The
officers also will distribute printed
pamphlets of instruction to persons
suffering from tuberculosis whereby
they may aid in immuning themselves
from the disease.

Denver Election Cases Dismissed.

Denver. April 12.-Judge Palmer OF
the District Court yesterday ordered
dismissed the criminal proceedings in
stituted by the League of Honest Elec-
tions against twenty persons charged
with crimes against the ballot in the
recent charter election on the ground
that these elections were special cleo
tions under the law and that there is
no law applicable to special elections
in Denver; and for the further ground
that Judge Johnson of the District
Court, sitting as a committing msgis-
trate, was required to grant change
of venue to the defendants.
The decision is accepted by the Hon
est Election League as blow to most
of its labors for which there does not
appear to be remedy as was found in
the case where the same court ordered
down the bars against women entering
saloons on the ground that they were
deprived of their constitutional privi-
leges. Attorney Hoyt of the league
characterized the opinion of the court
as one that placed special elections un-
der state of anarchy.

Eoles Refused New Trial.

Denver, April 12.-Russell Boles.
sentenced to death for the murder a.
young f'ridborn, will not receive a
new trial unless one is ordered for him
by the Supreme Court. This was the
decision of Judge N. Walter Dixon of
Pueblo, who heard the case in this
city. Boles was sentenced yesterday.
He was asked what he had to saw
why sentence should not be passed:
Il am just as innocent of this mur-
der as you are" were the words which
came tremblingly from his lips. Judg1(
Dixon replied that the jury had fott1id
otherwise and he could see no reason
for not taking the word of the twelve
men.
In deciding the motion for a new
trial Judge Dixon strongly criticised
the action of Maurice Finn, the attor-
ney for Boles. He stated also that the
defendant had the benefit of the good
will of the sheriff's Office and the po-
lice force, both of which assisted him
in getting witnesses from all over the
United States.

IN MERGER CASE
STATE COURT HAS JURISDICTION.
Decision of United States Circuit Court
Reversed and Case Remanded to
Minnesota Courts.

Washington. April 12.-The United
States Supreme Court to-day decided
the case of the state of Minnesota VS..
the Northern Securities Company and
the Northern Pacific and Great North
ern Companies, involving the validity
of the merger of the two railroad COM
panies, holding that it was without
jurisdiction and reversing the opinion
OF the court below.
Justice Harlan. who delivered the
opinion. said that the Circuit Court
should not have undertaken jurisdic-
ton in the case. the effect being to
remand the case to the state courts.
st. Paul. April 12-The Supreme
Court decision in the case of Mime
sofa against the merger is considered
by the states legal officers as virtual
victory for the state, although it puts
the litigation back exactly where it
was when the suit was first begun.
This was the original suit against the
merger, begun before the federal gov-
ernment began its action. 1t was
transferred from the state to the fed
eral court.
Judge Lochren in the Federal Dis
trict Court took jurisdiction without
much question and decided the case on
its merits against the state. The
United States Supreme Court now says
virtually that Judge Lochren should
not even have assumed jurisdiction,
much less decided that the merger was
legal corporation, thct could not be
reached by the laws of Minnesota The
suit now goes back to the state courts.
The attorney generals office, in view
of the dissolution of the merger or
dered by the Supreme Court, may de-
eide to drop the litigation. But it is
considered probable that it will be
pushed in order to secure test of the
constitutionality of the state law for
bidding the consolidation of parallel
and. competing lines of railroads. The
state and the merger attorneys both
Joined in urging upon the United
States Supreme Court that the federal
courts had jurisdiction and the state
filed supplementary brief supporting
that view.

Government Irrigation Projeo.a.

The progress made in irrigation
work of the government is reviewed
in publication issued by the Geolog.
ical Survey which points out the ne
cessity of great caution and conserva.
tism in the extension of reclamation
work.
1t says that of the irrigation pro-
jects favorably reported in 1903 which
included those on the Truckee river
in Nevada, on the Salt river in Ari-
zona, on Milk river in Montana on
Sweet Water river in Wyoming and
on the Gunnison river in Colorado, the
Nevada and Arizona projects have
been found feasible and construction
on the engineering works along the
Truckee and Salt rivers has pro-
gressed to reasonable extent
The Montana project. however, has
presented unexpected engineering diff.
ficulties. as well as complications re-
garding water rights, so that progress
is slow. 1t has been found necessary
to modify the first plans in order to
achieve early results.
The Wyoming project, as first out.
lined, has been found impracticable.
A better reservoir site than that on the
