whole the platform is admirable with
reference to the tariff and reciprocity
and leaves the discussion absolutely
open; that is, it leaves the republicans
in favor of the modification tariff to
literally urge the views and also
leaves the republicans who favor reci-
procity in either competitive or non
competitive products free to advocate
their opinions.

ton. He was followed by wild cheers,

ceived with great enthusiasm and was

ASSASSINS ESCAPED.
Murderer of Won Plefve Liberated
By Bogus Gendarmes.

ST. Petersburg, September 5.-A
story is being circulated here that two
reputed high officials, in full uniform,
and two bogus gendarmes with papers
alleged to have been signed by Minis
ter of Justice Muravief, directing the
removal of Sassoneff, the murderer
of Plehve, called at the prison on
Saturday last and demanded that the
prisoner be turned over to them.
This demand was acceded to, as the
formalities seemed to have been all
right.
1t is stated that after this audacious
fraud had been perpetrated they rode
away in the slowest and most uncon-
cerned manner.
Neither high officials or gendarmes
or prisoner have been seen since.
The authorities at the prison and
the royal palace scof at the whole
story, but it is widely and generally
credited.

yesterday afternoon near Richland

up the gun in the house and came
back and said he was going to give
up and go to jail. This was about
1880 or 200 o'clock on September 1st,
1904. I did not see the shot but Jim
told me he done the shooting. Jim
called me just before he shot and told
me his reason was that he wanted to
know where I was so I was out of
range of the gun"
