FEAR RENEW Al
Of TERRORISM
Cars Advisers Confronted
by a Growing Restless
ness Of the Populace
GRAND DUKE TO BLAME
Sergius Responsible for
the Arrogant Note of
Warning to ZemstyOs

SHUSHA, Russia, Dec. 2S.-Police
Chief SakarOn was killed on the main
street here this morning.
ST PETERSBURG, Dec. 2s.-It is
evident from the reports received from
the interior that the fairly good i'm
preston produced by the imperial man
ifesto on the subject Of reforms may be
more than Offset in many places by the
effect Of the Government note of warn
ing to the Zemsrvos. Private reports,
from Moscow especially, indicate that
much excitement prevails there, and
the gravest fears are expressed that
the ancient capital OF Russia may be
the scene Of sanguinary eXcesses. A
banquet arranged TO take place there
last night on the anniversary Of the
TrOubetzskOi revolution was stopped
by order Of the police, and the Moscow
Zemstvo adjourned sine die as a pro-
test against the Government note and
the return of Grand Duke Sergius, the
Governor General Of Moscow. The
Grand Duke is held TO be responsible
for the note, which may signal a re-
peWel Of terrorism.
The Pskon Zemstvo has followed the
lead Of those Of Chernigov and Moscow.
altogether the moment is considered
critical, although the feeling in St
Petersburg is Quieter.
The papers are not disposed to re-
gard the injunction to refrain from dis
cussing political matters. Under cover
Of commenting on the manifesto, which
they really accept in a spirit Of hope
fulness, they do not hesitate TO point
out the vagueness Of its terms and the
lack Of guarantees.
Witte. president Of the Committee Of
Ministers. is acting with energy in pre-
caring TO organize the various commits
sions under the Committee of Ministers
TO formulate the laws projected by the
manifesto. The destinies Of Russia in
the inns ediate future seem TO be in his
hands. The majority Of the Ministers
are hostile to him, but with the warm
support Of Interior Minister SViatOpOlk-
Atirslzy assured, no doubt is entertained
that Witte viii make himself complete
master OF the situation.
The. big strike AT the Balku oil fields,
coming at this time, is another cause
for anxiety, as possibly forming a rail-
lying cry for the workmen's organiza-
tions.
The meeting Of the Zemstvo in Mos
COW lasted until 3 o'clock this morning
Among those present were popular
writers, professors C-f the university.
Mining School and archaeological Insti-
tute, editors and socialist workmen.
The text Of the resolution, which was
aoptlLeQ Dy 30 10 votes, after many
fervid speeches, was as follows:
In view Of the horrors Of the war which
y devoid OF sense, and in view also Of the
eL0rusQus sacrifices and ruin IN which the
country is being involved. We representing
the liberal professions and working classes
protest against the war into which the Gov
.ernmeilt dragged the nation without consid-
Grafton for the opinions or interests Of the
Russian people and We express our profound
BELIEF that only the nation itself can save
Russia from her difficulties through represen-
tatives OF the people elected by ballot on equal
rights. Our motto is peace and freedom

DANCLADA GETS
INTO A TANCLE
Salesman Tailor Plunges
Into Confusion in a Case
of Chinese Habeas Corpus
IDENTIFIES WRONG BOY
Mongolian Trickery Exposed
in an Attempt to Land Jee
Hin as a Native American

A. Danglada, salesman for a tailor
supply firm in the Jennie Flood build
ing, while under oath in United States
Commissioner Heacock's court yester-
day positively identified Lum Wong as
Jee Hin. Danglada was given every op-
portunity to examine Lum Wong. Even
then he swore that Lum Wong was Jee
Hin.
Jee Hin happened to be absent at
the time, and the little incident illus
trating the duplicity of the Chinese
character settled his fate, for an. order
was made remanding him for deporta-
ton to the custody whence he had been
taken on a writ of habeas corpus.
Jee Hin's case had been continued
until to-day for further testimony as
to his right to land. The documents
produced at the further hearing were
found to have been altered by some
person interested in having him landed.
Mr.. Danglada took the oath as a wit
ness cheerfully and without gulp.
Then he told how he had known the
boys father, tailor, for thirty years
and how he had often seen the boy, the
last time being five years ago.
Sitting in the courtroom at the time
was a Chinese youth named Lum 10y,
who was awaiting a hearing on habeas
COIpuS DIS 10 LIS TlS4C TO De ldnQeQ as a
native American. After Mr.. Danglada
had finished that part of his testimony
Mr.. McKinlay pointed to Lum Wong
and asked, rs that Jee Hin, the son of
your friend?"
II think So" was the response
We'll, 1 want you to be SURE. Is that
the boy about whom you have been
testifying?"
YES"
NOW, I want you to be positive.
Your evidence is very important in this
case. Take him to the window and ex-
anime him closely"
Danglada did as directed and replied
that the boy was Jee Hin and that he
was positive In his Identification.
In the meantime Alfred Worley, at
torney for Jee Hin, was in a cold sweat.
While Mr.. McKinlay was examining
Danglada, Judge Heacock kept Worley
transfixed with his eye. When the wit
ness was turned over to him for exam
ination the Judge and Mr.. McKinlay
wore broad smiles.
You are not quite sure that this Is
the boy?" asked Mr.. Worley.
YES" replied Danglada hesitatingly.
After a few more questions in the
same vein by the lawyer Danglada ad-
mitted that he might have been mis-
taken.
During the progress Of the case Wor-
ley accused Chinese Interpreter David
D. Jones Of having told Judge Heacock
that the man who claimed to be the
boys father was Sam Yup, while the
boy was a See Yup, or vice versa, and
that therefore they could not be father
and son. Jones denied the statement.
He admitted that he had made such a
statement to Worley, but insisted that
he had not told the Judge or any one
else. Mr.. Worley by this time betrayed
considerable irritation and spoke to the
interpreter in a way that Mr.. Jones
resented. He fatty refused to put any
more of Worley's questions to a Chi
nese witness on the stand, and Judge
Heacock sent to the Chinese Bureau
and obtained another interpreter for
the case.

GADSKI CONCERT
AT ST. FRANCIS
A SMART AFFAIR
BY SALLY SHARP.

Lucky Mr.. Tauscherl
What lucky chap, to dwell in the
eternal 10y Of that Gadsh voice and
that Gadski smilei
1t was this dulcet duality that lured
the love Of 800 Of US last night at the
concert at the st. Francis, for know
ye all that last night marked the debut
of the st. Francis Musical Art Society,
whose mission it is to give us of the
West such musical pabulum as we
need-and such artists as we want.
Hence Gadski, bless her!
Unlike the Francesca concert, the
stage was placed in the middle Of the
west wall of the ballroom, with the
great mantel mirror its animate back
ground. In this manner not a whisper
was lost, although it did bring the
fair sOngstress rather close TO her au-
dience. But to the credit of both let it
be said that the proximity was produc-
tive of warmth and friendly neigh
borliness that brought out of the Cad
ski throat the best that was in it, and
that best was superb. The following is
the programme she gave:
Part l. classical songs-a, whining
Der Kleine Fritz CWeber): d AUS Meine1
Grossen Schmerzen" (Franz): e, 'IErlkonig''
(Schubert).
al AlOlcFu miscellaneous QrlaS and
SSongs-a, piano solo. ''Wocans Abschied und
Fenerzauber- CWagner); b. aria, Aida
1terdil; c. .'Yorabend" (Cornelius); d. ''stram-
(, Won Ewiger Liebe'' CBrahms): g. ''Traum
Durch die Dammerung' R- Strauss; h,
Part 5. wagner-a, piano solo. prelude
study, Tristan and Isolde" CWagner c,
symphony, Schlummerled" CWagner); d,
sentas ballade, ''FIiegender Hollander'' Cwag-
OF these 'Erlkonig," the aria from
Aida" the Mel Bua" of Bohm and
the two Strauss numbers proved to
be favored ones Of the two first parts.
when an encore was asked for-and
charmingly given-"I Gave My Love
Rose" Ali but that was sweet,
sweet as the breath OF the rose itself.
In the Wagner selections Gadski
chose to blend lyrics with dynamics,
and the result was a Joy.
You should have heard the clatter Of
palm on palm at Santa's "Ballade." A"
1t brought madame back with a witch
ing smile and gladsome eye, as she
gave a splendid little finale to a bril-
liant programme.
How fresh and fascinating she looked
IN her robe-Venetian, ladies-with her
white shoulders and splendid chest,
framed squarely with a lace bertha,
wherein nestled a great diamond and
emerald butterfly. On her pretty head
she wore a tiara holding aloft two su-
perb diamOnds-a picture in all truth.
The pianist, Herr Selmar Meyrowitz,
looks like an artist. and plays like one.
His solos We're we'll received, partic-
ularly his Tristan and Isolde" Herr
Meyrowitz is a man Of social distinc-
ton on his own heath over the ocean,
likewise man Of reputation.
Many stunning gowns were seen in
the concert room, not a few of which
were full dress, a Gothamite sugges-
ton. But somehow we OF the West
haven't yet arrived at the decollete
stage Of concert or opera-but we may
some day.
We all remember the time our men
wore high hats and sack coats. They've
outgrown that, which fact shows pro-
gress- Perhaps next year, If Mr..
Greenbaum be good to US for the rest
Of this year, full dress may reward
him then.
1t gives a concert atmosphere.

DESPONDENT BARBER HANGS
HIMSELF TO A BEDPOST
Body of John Sandstone Is Found in
a Room of the Hancock
House.

The lifeless body of John Sandstone,
a barber. was found hanging to a bed
post in a room at the Hancock House
by an employe of the place late last
night. Sandstone had rented the
room a few hours before, evidently
with the intention of ending his life
there. He used a piece of clothes line
with which to strangle himself.
Sandstone had been in i'll health for
a long time and it is believed that he
ended his life while in a flt of des-
pondency. The body was removed to
the Morgue, where an autopsy will be
held.

Korean Seesaw.

Korean girls are fond of playing
at seesaw. A bag full of sand
about a foot in thickness is placed
on the ground. Across this is placed
a plank, and stretched alongside at a
proper height for the children to
grasp and steady themselves is a
rope.
The young Koreans do not sit
down, as English and American
girls would do, but stand erect on
the ends of the plank. One gives an
upward spring and as she alights on
the board gives the other a skyward
toss, who, as she alights in turn
throws the first girl aloft a little
higher. And so the sport goes Oh
until in their upward flight each girl
is thrown two or three feet into the
air. Frequent rests are necessary,
but the pastime is the occasion OF
much merriment.

FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
Blind Mays Singing School 10 an
Amusing Game.

One player must be blindfolded to
take the ptrt of teacher. The rest
of the party compose the class and
sit in a line facing her.
She then informs her class that
they will begin the lesson by singing
the scales. The head girl, or the one
at the end of the line, Immediately
sings "Ah" and the next "Ah a
little higher OF lower, just as she
chooses, and so it goes all the way
down the line, each singing note
in any way that she may wish. The
teacher must listen attentively, and
any time she thinks she recognizes
voice she stops the class and calls
the singer by name. If she guesses
correctly she changes places with the
pupil, who in turn becomes teacher,
but if not she must keep on guess
ing.
Every time a new teacher is Sc
lected the whole class must change
seats, so that the voices may not be
recognized by the direction from
which they come.
A little variety may be introduced
into the game by singing a well
known song instead of scales, each
pupil singing the word which comes
to her to supply. 1t is the privilege
of each teacher to direct her class
to sing whatever. she may choose,
either song or exercise.

CONDENSED STORIES.
How an Irish Jurors, Wit Helped the
Defendant.

beTenOdnts
John G.. Carlisle tells a story OF
his early days when he was counsel
for an insurance company in Ken
lucky, says the New York Herald.
The company had brought an ac-
ton against the proprietor OF 8
small dry goods store which had
been destroyed by fire under rather
suspicious circumstances.
! The proprietor was put on the
stand, and Mr.. Carlisle, in his ca
pacity as counsel, undertook during
the course o. cross examination to
break down the story of the fire.
All the articles of the questioner
were, however, of no avail, for the
proprietor stuck to his tale and
there seemed to be little hope of dis
crediting the testimony offered by
him.
The defendant was about to leave
the box, when an 1rishman, who
had been following the testimony
with i'll concealed impotence, shout
ed out in stentorian tones:
$50, me man, whin you'd sit fire
to the store, We ran away, he"
At this the unfortunate trades
man became visibly embarrassed,
suffered and spluttered and finally,
under the renewed questioning of
Mr.. Carlisle, who was not slow to
follow up the advantage afforded by
the Celt's unexpected outburst, the
proprietor virtually admitted his
guilt, whereupon his convi2tion
speedily ensued.
When the proceedings were over
Mr.. Carlisle sought out the Irish
Juror, whom he complimented on his
ready wit. But" said he, my
friend, how did you come to pit that
question? 1t certainly enabled me
to win the case"
