Grand Duke Cyril, but the Emperor
was SO overwhelmed with grief at the
death Of Vice Admiral Makaroff that
neither he nor the Empress attended
the service. Instead, the Emperor sent
a member of his personal staff to
break the sad news to Vice Admiral
Makaroff's widow, who IS living in St.
Petersburg.
Meantime the city was filled with the
widest rumors, but the official dis
patches were so meager and private
dispatches so conflicting regarding
what had occurred that the public was
kept in suspense for six hours. Then,
although the report was incomplete,
dispatches We're posted on the Nevsky
Prospect and other war bulletin boards.
The grief of the crowds, whose worst
fears We're thus officially confirmed,
was touching. The Ministry Of Marine
was soon surrounded by thousands of
persons eagerly asking for more de-
tails. The crowd of inQuirers were the
stricken relatives of those who were
on board the lost battleship.
What occurred prior to the blowing
up of the flagship was only vaguely
known, except that Admiral Makaroff,
with his flag flying on the doomed ves-
sci. sailed out to engage the enemy
until the latter's reinforcements ap-
peared.

PACKERS STAND PAT.
Claim that First Arbitration Agree
Inent Still Holds Good.

Chicago, July 2S.-"We had an
agreement with Mr.. Donnelly's organ
ization and the allied trades which
they failed to live up to and under
the circumstances we do not care to
make any further agreement with
Them
This is the statement which was
signed by the representatives of the
packers and handed to the members
of the state board of arbitration at
the end of a conference between the
two bodies held at the request of the
state board of arbitration in an en-
deavor to bring about another meet
ing for settlement of the butchers
strike between the packers and the
strikers.
The packers received the state board
courteously and listened to their ar
guments for a peaceable adjustment
of the difficulties. The announcement
that the packers were opposed to any
further negotiation with the strikers
was handed to the board by Arthur
Meeker and Thomas Conner, both of
Armour & Co, who represented the
packers.
While from their statement it would
appear that the packers are opposed
to meeting the strikers again on any
terms, such is not. the case At the

Railroads to Have ST. Louis Coach Ex-
cursions Two Days a Week.

Announcement is made today that
during the months of August and Sep
tember the railroads will place in eff
feet upon every Tuesday and every
Thursday the popular price of $3.50
for the trip from Topeka to st. Louis
and return.
This is the rate which is made for
what is known as the coach excursion.
The tickets are good to return only
within seven days of the sale and hold
ers of these tickets cannot use sleep
ing cars.
These coach excursions have been in
effect during the past two months but
the rates were only applied to one day
of the week. The attendance at the
Worlds fair has not been what has
been expected, and the Worlds fair
officials have prevailed upon the rail-
roads to give these reduced rates twice
a week in order to stimulate the traffic
and to boom the attendance at the
fair.
The rate of $3.50 for the round trip
from Topeka to st. Louis will be in
force on each of the roads, the Santa
Fe, Rock Island and Union Pacific,
each Tuesday and Thursday during
the months of August and September.

WHAT CITY MUST PAY.
Improvement Bond Levy Will Be
Three Mills.

City Treasurer Hale today reported
that the city will have to pay $57, 972. SO
principal on city improvement bonds,
and $40, 1926 interest on improvement
bonds during the year 1905 OF this,
about 40 per cent must be paid by the
city at large, and provided for in the
tax levy.
This means that the tax levy to pay
interest on the Improvement bonds, and
take up theb onds which come due will
be three mills. The total amount to be
raised is $31, 235. There will probably be
somewhat in excess of this sum, to
cover the expense of the 1904 paving
bond issue.
The total amount of principal and in
terest paid off last year was $50, $50.
This year it will be $7S,0S7, plus small
amount for this years bond issue. The
amount to be raised will therefore be
about the same as last year Most of
this sum, of course, is raised by special
levies on the property abutting on the
paved streets or in the sewer district.

Washington Is Not Surprised.
Washington. July 2S--The first Off
cial information received here of the
tragedy at st. Petersburg came today
in a short cablegram to. the state de-
partment from Spencer Eddy, the
charge of the American embassy in
the absence from that capital of Am
bassador Mccormick. The message
read:
Secretary of Interior Plehwe and
several others killed and some wound
ed by explosion of a bomb
The cablegram was promptly for
warded by Acting Secretary Adee to
Secretary Hay at Newbury. n. H, and
a proper expression of coincidence will
be directed through Mr.. Eddy.
Although the assassination is deep
ly deplored here, it can not be said
that it has caused much surprise in !
the circles here best informed as to
the conditions in St. Petersburg. NJ. /
Plehwe was regarded as a reactioniSt !
and was particularly severe in his |
treatment of the radical element in |
Russian politics. He was able to en- |
force his policies through his abSo- |
lutte control of the secret service and |
police.
The following cablegram has reached |
the state department from Consul Cen |
eral Watts at st. Petersburg:
'Plehwe assassinated this morning. |
Others also killed and wounded. Bomb |
