st. Petersburg.-General Sakharoff,
the new war minister. like General
Kouropatkin, is devoted to his pro-
fession. He evades social functions,
where he is seldom seen except on
state occasions. The minister has dis
tinguished himself as fighter.
With II scouts he routed 100 Turks,
and carried orders at Shepka pass un.
der hot fire, for which he was pro-
NOTED colonel.
General Sakharoff has been chief of

Washington, Marcn 30.-Warren b.
Wilson, lawyer of Chicago, has filed
in the district supreme court a bill in
equity for an injunction against Score
tary Shaw, the republic of Panama,
the New Panama Canal company Of
France and others to stop the con.
struction of the Panama canal.
He asks that Secretary Shaw be en-
joined from permitting the payment of
any moneys under his control under
the pretended authority of the act of
June 90, 1902, entitled "An act to pro-
vide for thei construction of a canal
connecting the waters of the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans.
He AYERS that there is no appropria.
ton by law of any money for the pay
ment of any of the construction ex.
penses, and declares that the act OF
June 2S, 1902, is in violation of the
constitution and is null and void.
He charges that the treaty is WHOLLY
unconstitutional and invalid, both in
the United and in Panama, in its es
sential features, and confers no right
and imposes no obligations on either Of
the parties directly concerned.
Mr.. Wilson charges that if even thu
act were valid its terms and conditions
have not been complied with and de
not authorize the proposed payments
which will, therefor, he, alleges, vic
late the constitution.

DESCENDANT OF COLUMBUS

LONDON, Sept. 10.-Colonel Colomb,
the retired officer of the Royal Ar
tirery, is we'll known in London society
for two reasons. He is a descendant
of Christopher Columbus. the discov-
erer of America, and also. perhaps,
the greatest friend possessed by the
birds of the metropolis. At all smart
social functions he is an invited guest
to all travelling Americans he is point

Colonel Colomb is descended. In ap-

is esteemed as a fine French scholar
and has written an abridged English
