One man was killed and five persons
injured in a street car accident at
Thirty-first street and Bryant avenue
at noon to-day when a Twentieth and
Hennepin car jumped the switch and
collided with a plasterer's wagon.
The street car was going west on
Thirty-first street at it's usual rate or
speed while Peterson, owner OF the
demolished rig;e and Hammer, were
driving east on the south side Of the
street. Peterson believed that the car
was going west on the main line and
drove upon the tracks at Bryant ave-
nue. lust as the street car struck the
switch. The switch failed to work
properly and the car turned unexpect-
edly onto the Bryant avenune line,
striking the rig.
Petersons horse was thrown into
the ditch and Peterson was thrown
upon the curbing. In some way the
car struck Hannah squarelyl and he
was instantly killed. Peterson es-
capped with several cuts and bruises,
but sustained no broken bones.
In the car all was confusion. Willie
Sparge, who was on his way home
from school, was thrown violently
against one of the seats and his Shout

home. Three other passengers were
slightly injured but went home with

FOR RECIPROCITY

the delegates to the republican state
convention to name delegates-at-large
to the national convention conferred.
prior to the opening of the session to-
day, in the situation created by Eu-
for reciprocity with Canada.
Mr.. Foss, on this issue, was defeated
as a candidate for congress last fall,
but renewing the contest, he an
nounced his candidacy for delegate
at-large to the Chicago convention and
insisted that reciprocity with Canada
should be recognized in the state plat
form.
Mr.. Foss made his plea for a reci-
procity plank yesterday before the
committee on resolutions. The result
was not satisfactory to him, and he
declared he would carry the matter
before the convention. s....s
Opposed to Mr.. Foss on the rect
procity question were Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge and the state committee,
while his opponent as candidate for
delegate at-large-s was Colonel F. A.
Benton of Belmont.
The platform reaffrms the princi-
pies of reciprocity as enunciated in
the national republican platform OF
1900. On this subject the resolutions

Vassili Verestchagin, who was born
in 1912, had been a spectator and par
ticipant in several of the wars Of
recent years, led by his aim to paint
war as it actually is. Among his pic
lures are included battle scenes from

Transvaal conflict, the Santiago and
the Philippine campaigns Of the

campaign in China, made from

quently he came to the United States

ment subjects.

DENIED BY ADMIRALTY

Report That Japanese Sunk Petro-
.payloysk Meets With Ridicule.

St. Petersburg, April 15.-5:20 p. m.
Out Of the maze of conflicting re-
ports regarding the sequence of events
leading up to the destruction of the
Petropavlovsk, it is now established
that Vice Admiral Makarof, early
Wednesday morning, took out his
squadron to engage a weak division
of six Japanese cruisers, which ap-
peared on the horizon. after the Ja-
panese torpedo boats, which sank the
Bezstrashni, had been driven off by
the Bayan. Particulars of the torpe-
do boat fight are still lacking.
The Russian ommander-in-chief
pursued the Japanese cruiser division
until it was reinforced by eleven bat
tIeships, when he retired into the
outer roadstead where he was drawing
up in line of battle when the disaster
to the Petropavlovsk occurred.
The exact circumstances of the de-
struction Of the battleship are not
known.
It is certain that both her boilers
and magazines exploded, but it is not
absolutely sure that she touched a
mine, altho the weight of opinion at
the admiralty is that such was the
and not a japanese mine.
It is absolutely denied at the adj
miralty that Admiral Makaroffs ships
participated in a naval engagement.
Altho the papers this morning were
allowed to print reports from abroad.

COURT OF INQUIRY
Real Cause of Explosion ShrOuded
by Death of Officers.

Pensacola, Fla, April 15.-The
court of inquiry to examine into the
cause of the explosion on the battle
ship Missouri reconvened on the bat
tleship to-day.
Admiral Coughlan Of the Caribbean
squadron Is president of the court and
the members of the court have been
selected as far as possible from vessels
Of other squadrons.
1t is not expected by those who are
familiar with the circumstances that
the court will recommend any pro-
Ceedings In the case inaSmuch as
those who are presumed to be at fault
were the turret officers, and they
were killed.
The real cause of the explosion
probably never will be known and
only theories as to the cause can be
accepted by the naval officials, as
none of the turret crew survives.
That the newest batlteship of the
navy, the Missouri, had a narrow es-
cape from being beached after the
fatal explosion has come to light.
When the officers heard the explosion
thru the top, they realized that the
magazine might next explode, and
headed the ship for the beach, in
tending to beach her If possible, be-
fore it blew up. Captain Cowles
quickly put the ship back to sea.

st. Petersburg, April 15.-A feeling
Of unrest and alarm has it's grip on
the city. The people feel that the
government is hiding something Of
grave import.
Each new report from the far east
adds some distressing detail to the
Port Arthur disaster, and the people
feel that the worst has not yet been
told.
The belief is gaining ground that
the government has been in full pos
session of the facts from the first and
is trying to break the news to the
country gently; hence the fragmen-
tary announcements.
Grand Duke Cyril is persistently re-
ported to be dead, despite official de-
malls and the reported receipt of a
telegram from Liao-yang, where he is
said to have been taken, from Grand
Duke Boris to the effect that he is
already much better.
Captain Jakovleff, who was report

A later report says Captain Jakov-

Harry Smith, professional crook,
experienced Jail breaker, under indict-
ment for grand larceny in the first de-
gree, made a sensational "get away
from the county Jail about 1 o'clock
this morning. His disappearance was
not discovered until o'clock, and no
trace of him has been found.
Smith is of slight stature and gave
his age as 1 8 years. He was confined
in solitary cell in the insane ward.
The prisoners methods and the ma
terials used in his escape show not
only experience, but prove to the sat
isfaction of the officers that he must
have had some outside help. Wait
ing until the prisoners were all asleep,
he first arranged his bed clothes SO as
to make the night Waterman imagine
the prisoner was lying asleep. He
then fastened a carefully braided bed
clothes rope some thirty feet in length
to the iron frame Of his stationery bed
and passed it thru the broken wire
netting separating his cell from a pas

runs between the cells and the win

down to the. fourth story window,
some twenty-six feet. There he must
have been pulled in by confederates.

London, April 15.-The Times this

'The Tibetan cornmandant and the

the Chinese general stating that the
soldiers having fed, no other course
was open to him. Apparently 500
Tibetans escaped with their rifles and

General Macdonald not to occupy the

would be inflicted on him in that event
by the Lhasa authorities. -

There is a rumor that four officials
are coming from Lhasa, but another
rumor, probably more trustw orthy.
suggests that Lhasa, is determined to
persevere in it's foolish obstinacy.'
