PLACE IN THE CABINET
LATEST SUGGESTION REGARDING
 SENATOR F. M. C0CKRELL.
Recalled thnt Gresham who Never VOt- cd e Democratic Ticket, Was sim- iIarIy Honored by President
 Grover Cleveland.

Washington, Nov. 22. .--lSpecial. )-- The frequent repetition of state ments that President Roosevelt intends to demonstrate the sincerity of his good feeling for the South is attract ing some serious attention.
 His manifest good will toward Sem ator F. M. Cockrell, whose senatorial seat was swept from under him by the Missouri landslide, Is taken as slg- nal instance of the Presidents amiahle regard for a typical Democrat. South erner and Confederate veteran.
 ''Why not cockrall for cabinet placer" that was the 'sgsst{bn here to- day. And 1t seemed fkgdf3hly to lR- terest all who heard 1t. It was re- marked that President Hayes had ap- pointed David M. Key, a Confederate brigadier of Tennessee, postmaster general and he had spent the rest of his life as a Federal office holder, be- ing a district judge when he died.
 Grover Cleveland, in his appoint highest office within his gift, named a man who had never voted a Demo- cratic ticket and who was so notable a Republican as to have served in the cabinet of a Republican administra- tion.
 Friends of Senator Cockrell are urg- ing him to try for the Interstate Com merce Commissionership to be made vacant by the retirement of Judge Yeoman The salary is $7,5O0 with a travel expense allowance of $2,000, which is far better than a Senators salary and no bother with office seek.

TOM LAWSON IS SUED
ACTION AGAINST BOSTON MTLLION-
 ARE FOR @S5O,O00.
Announced That It Has no Connection With His Magazine Articles, AL though the Author Seems to
 Think Differently.

Boston, Nov. 22.-Thomas Lawson said today that service had been made on him of papers in a suit for S35O 0OO brought by persons fin New York, but he was ignorant both as to the con- tents of the documents and the indi- viduals named in them. He explained that he was so accustomed to receiv- ing legal papers that he really had not given this matter serious atten- ton. He had merely noted that the sum of $35O,000 was mentioned and that the names Fuller and Coudert ap- peared before passing 1t over to his attorney. He said that he had never heard of either Fuller or Coudert be- fore and that the whole matter was 'an Greek to him."
 It was announced that the action has nothing to do with MT. Lawson's re- cent magazine articles.
 Mir. Lawson issued tonight a signed statement which. however, beyond the inference contained in the opening sem tence, throws little light upon the origin or nature of the suit or suits brought against him. Tn conclusion Mir. Lawson refers to pressure being brought at Washington in an effort to exclude from the mails his writings on finance. He expresses the opinion that such a proceeding would not he aAa The statement in part follows.
 Tn regard to the suits and rumors of suits. civil and criminal, brought and to be brought against me by Stand ard oil, the insurance companies and individuals because of my story, 'Fren- zied Finance can simply say: Bring them along, one and all. and I will be found on hand prepared to give battle to a finish. giving no odds and asking for none'
 T have been telling few raw truths and in this age of dollars no man will be allowed to distribute truths about financial rascality without paying the price. My truths are big ones and I suppose the price will be equally big but the American people may rest easy that whatever the price, I'll pay 1t and not ask any sympathy for doing so and they can rest easy about another fact I'll make those who have been plum dering the people during the past ten years pay a price to which mine will appear like a tight shoe compared with the inquisltorial racks of the dark ages.
 Let the American people make no mistake; 12 o'clock Is being struck at the while you wait factory where multimillionaires have been turned out from the raw material, and unless miss my guess 1t will take more court trials than there are in America to drown the ominoug sound of that high noon bell"

Explosion Shutters Building and Occu-
 pants Have Miraculous Escape.
 Omaha, Neb., Nov. 22.-The home of Elmer E. Thomas, a prominent lawyer of this city. and attorney for the Civic Federation, was badly wrecked by a bomb placed on the front porch of his home at 2 o'clock this morning. MT. Thomas and his family were in the house at the time and he considers 1t miraculous that none of them was in- tired.
 Mrs Thomas was awakened about 2 o'cock by noise on the front porch and aroused her husband, believing that burglars were trying to enter the house. Mir Thomas began an investi- gation and discovered a fire on the front porch. He picked up large rug and attempted to smother the flames, when a terrific explosion occurred. AL though but a few feet from the mis- sile he escaped injury. 4ts
 The front part of the house was blown in, doors shattered and an im- mense hole torn in the ground The interior of the building is wreck. A squad of policemen were on the scene in a short time, but no clue to the perpetrators of the deed could be found. The man evidently made a has ty escape after setting the fuse which exploded the bomb. MT. Thomas saw no one leaving the premises. The ex- plosion was heard for three miles.
 Attorney Thomas has been actNe for some time in the prosecution of saloon keepers charged with the violation of the Slocum ordinance which provides for midnight and Sunday closing of saloons. He also had been acting for the Civic Federation in the habeas cor pus proceedings by which Thomas Dennison has sought to avoid being taken to Iowa in connection with the S75, 900 Pollock diamond robbery. To these circumstances Mir. Thomas said to the Associated Press he attributes the attack on his home. ,ee

 Rev. R. O. Kirkwood today started a fund to buy a home for the widow and ten orphans of the murdered white man and an effort to raise a large sum will be made.
 The finding of six negroes armed with shot guns on the outskirts of the city today shows there is an ugly feel fig among a certain element of the ne- groes which may lead to clashes with whites However, negro preachers and the better class are doing their utmost to keep down the race feeling deploring the acts of the murderers ana counselling deferenee to the whites.
 The funeraISof Moore took place to- day. It was marked by no excite ment. Authorities believe that the feeling will soon subside and that the men may then be, brought back here for trial.

St Petersburg. Nov. 22.--The Rus sian newspapers, although not allowed to refer directly to the meeting of Zemstvo presidents, are indirectly be- ginning to discuss the questions raised by the memorial. The Novostl, dis cussing the hypothesis that represent atives of the people shortly will be summoned to debate legislative propos- als. points out that only thirty-four of the eighty-seven provinces have legal ly constituted Zemstvos, the local gov ernments of the recently organized western provinces not being based on the elective principle, It therefore urges that they be free from Govern ment control in conformity with the statutes of 1864.

 Conseduentfy it was decided that each member of the assembly act according to his judgment as to the method for spreading the agitation.
 Tonight the editors of the princi- pal Russlan papers met the presidents of the Zemstvos to arrange a plan for cooperation in their work. A com munication was received frcmstne rev- olutionary organ promising to suspend active publication pending the govern ment's action on the memorial.
 Big student, demonstrations which were planned for this week have been postponed on the urgent advice of the zemstvos presidents who are anxious not to embarrass Minister sylatopolk- Mirsky.
 The calming influence which the Zemstvos exercise over the disturbing elements of the body polite is one of the strongest features of tSeir posi- tion in the great struggle.

Zandagaw. Manchuria. by courier to Mukden, Nov. 22-The Japanese lost five hundred men in the attacks of Mo- vember IT. and November IS, and were evidently disheartened. When they re- newed the attack November 19, the Japanese sent out several battallions from Double Humped Hill," but theiT movement lacked decision.
 The Russians opened fire from Pouti- 1off Clone Tree) Hill and neighboring eminences. Shells burst in the midst of the advancing Japanese columns and quickly checked them.
 The Japanese also tried a turning operation at Chanlindza, but there also they were dispersed.
 There was a light encounter Mo- vember 20 Russian scouts penetrated a short distance into the Japanese lines but without much result. During the last two days the Chinese have been moving in large numbers from the east northward. taking their wives, child ren and household goods in order to save them from the Japanese.
 They evince more confidence in the Russians than in the Japanese. The Chinese complain that the whole couD- try between the Russian and Japanese lines Is laid waste. Not single dwelling Is standing.
