Russian Soldiers RebelIious.
A letter from Russia states that 1t is
with considerable difficulty and only after
many preparations that the Russian gov
rnmen has succeeded In sending REIN
forcements to General Kuropatkln in the
far east. 1.-THE other day. the letter
says, "a large part of the garrison at
kleff was called out and paraded.
THE men were ordered to stand at at
%tention and all the Jews in the ranks were
told to fall out.
Tho same order was then given tc the
one-year service men, and again TO every
soldier who was able to read and write.
"All these men were then sent back to
the barracks, while the rest We're sent
to the large cities in all parts OF the en-
plre where soldiers of the reserve had re-
fused to go to the front.

The famous composer, Leoncavallo, who
has been in this city for some time for
the purpose of delivering into the hands
of the kaiser the opera which his majesty
ordered from him some time ago, has been
l1onized by the people of Berlin, who have
given hirp great ovations wherever he
has shown himself.

On hearing this, the composer wrote on
the back of a bill of fara a declaration
that he renounced his rights on the pres

of his opera "Pagllacc!.'

the performance was received with q

Among General Kuropatkin's soldiers
the belief is prevalent that the japanese
are NIL masicians and consequently not to

But among the agricultural population.

have no idea why the war has broken out,

CASHIER UNDER ARREST
ENTERTAINMENT THE CHARGER
AGAINST AN EMPLOYEE OF
THE BOOTH PACKING COM.
PANY ~ n-F ~ <,

& G. S. Gilbertson, accused of en-
bezzlement from the Minneapolis
agency of the A. Booth Packing Co..
is under arrest in Chicago, and will
be brought back to this city in GUS
tody Dispatches from Chicago state
that he is accused of appropriating
$1,000, but that he admits taking
only $4,000, which he gave to friend
for investment.
Gilbertson was cashier at the Min
neapolis branch of the Booth COM
pany and suspicious of shortage
were aroused only last Saturday.
Checkers were put to work on his
books, and when it became necessary
to consult Gilbertson he was not to be
found. He was traced to Chicago,
where he was arrested last night.
Detective Oscar Hicks will leave to Sc
cure the prisoner as soon as requisi-
ton papers can be secured.
The complaint lodged against Gill
bertson here is sworn to by L.. B.
Keller, local manager of the Booth
company. It alleges the embezzle-
ment Of only $500, an amount suffi-
Gent to warrant requisition, but the
shortage is believed to be many times
that amount. 1t does not yet appear
what system enabled the cashier to
incur even a $500 shortage without
the knowledge Of those under whom
he worked.
When asked about the case this
morning Manager Keller stated fatty
that he knew nothing whatever
about it.

TRAGIC DEATH.

New evidence which points to
Phillips as the guilty man was OBJ
tanned by Coroner Miller and the ST.
Paul police last night. Phillips and
Bowen quarreled Sunday, evidently
over the refusal Of Bowen to aid Phil
lips in robbing the house Of their en-
ployer, Matt :Wilmus. The converse
ton was overheard by Martin Wilmus,
the young son of the farmer. At this
time Phillips intimated to Bowen
that there would be trouble.
Monday the men did not work on
account of rain in the forenoon.
Phillips sharpened his knife on the
grindstone. Shortly after the men,
who appeared to have settled their
troubles, started for st. Paul That
was the last time the men were seen
by the farmer.
An autopsy was held at the morgue
last night and showed that any one Of
the three wounds might have been
fatal.

Third Ward. as4#s


There was a rousing republican
gathering in the third ward Wigwam
last evening, the residents Of the ward
having assembled to give a reception
to j. w. ,Dreger and indorse him for
reelection as sheriff. The capacity
Of the hall was taxed with the six
hundred people present. There were
many women in the audience.
The principal address was made by
William Henry Eustis, who enlarged
upon the advantages of a protective
tariff and the gain in strength which
the immigration from European coun-
tries afforded. He also took occa-
sion to speak of John Lind's address
made at the state university. He said
that eight years ago J ohm Lind left
the republican party because it ire
fused to make a bushel Of wheat and
an ounce Of silver equal in value"
Now, he asserted, the congressman
was very quiet on the money ques-
ton.
Thomas Voegeli, chairman, called
upon II. B. Chamberlain, James S.
Schearer, Thomas Salmon, Arthur T..
Jones and John S.t.Sweet for short
addresses. 4. Eis
The following resolution, presented
by Fred Strout. was adonted:
s We, the friends and neighbors of j. w.

preciating his worth as a citizen and his
record as public official take this OPP
portunity of expressing our high regard
and esteem for. him and gladly indorsing
him for a second term for the office Of
sheriff of Hennepin county.

ROB And BURN
AT LONG LAKE
BURGLARS DYNAMITE A SAFE,
THEN FIRE STORE.
Whole Village in Danger of Destruc-
tion-F. III. brakes General Store
and Mrs. Smiths Barn in Ashes
Safe Wrecked and Valuable Papers
Demolished.

Burglars, frebugs and dynamite broke
in upon the quietude of Long Lake, fif-
teen miles northwest tof Minneapolis last
night, and as result the general mer-j
chandise store of f. H. Drake and the
residence and barn Of Mrs. j. Smith are
in ashes today. It was only by the
most heroic efforts of the bucket brigade
that the rest of the village was saved.
At midnight all was quiet In the VII
lage, the last passenger train had gone
to the city and the people were all
wrapped in slumber. Suddenly a deafen-
ing report was heard and an instant later
the skies reflected the glare of a fire.
Hurrying into the streets, the citizens
found that brakes store was on fire.
When the first persons arrived on the
scene they found the. door of the store
open and tried to enter. In "a dozen places.
the building was on fire. while the mer-
chand1se was strewn about the place just
as it had been left by the burglars. One
man tried to get into the store as far as
the safe to see If it had been destroyed,
but was unable to do so on account of the
extreme heat. sa5
Driven from the burning store, the citi-
zens hastily organized a bucket brigade
and devoted their attention to saving the
/ adjoining buildings. Barrels of water were
thrown upon the residence seal barn of
Mrs. Smith, which adjoined the store, but
the heat was too great. A minute later
firebrands from the store began raining
down upon the structure, and soon it was
burning fiercely. Most Of the furniture
was carried out before the house caught
| fire, and the loss is confined chiefly to the
building. sa
Just how much goods the burglars sue
ceeded in getting away with will probably
never be known. Mr.. Drake says that he
did not leave much money in the safe, but
that there were valuable books and pa
pers In the strong box. These it is
thought, have been completely destroyed,
as the explosion evidently so wrecked the
safe as to destroy its freproof quality.
The fire loss, which in the aggregate
| amounts to $4,000, is covered by insur-
ance. .ass 1r4sSaG sAgTscea
| linn ediately after the fire was discov-
cred, the Minneapolis police were notified
and a watch was set for persons coming
from the direction of Long Lake. No
| trace Of the burglars was found, and it
is thought that theyHmust have gone in
another direction. st5.5 a3 E.r
