Letters from American resi-.

Gus side of the present conflict
with Russia than is ordinarily pre-
sented, at the recent convention Of
the Congregational Woman's

dence, r. l. Reports of the work
in Japan wave a gloomy picture of
life at the present time in the
FlOwery Kingdom. The common
soldier, it appears, receives prac.
tically no pay. Consequently the
family which he leaves behind is
in desperate poverty. Japanese
women have formed relief soci.
cites to care for such cases, and
are doing magnificent work. But
t is not only among the lower
classes that distress exists. The
government has discharged many
Of its employees, and where sal.
aries are not reduced a good per,
,entage has to be paid back to the
government. Trade is dull, and
everyone is economizing, but no
one complains.

FINLAND TO FEEL
CARS VENGEANCE
Obolensky, the Cruel, Instructed
to Avenge Blood Of
Bobrikoff.
New York Sun Special Service.


Berlin, July 1.-THE classification
Of Finland is to be continued under
the cruel hand of Prince Obolensky.
Russia, after all. seems to have de-
cided to punish Finland for the assas-
sination Of Governor General Bobri-
koff. If anyone can carry out reign
of vengeance it Is Obolensky. He dis
tinguished himself by his cruelty to
peasants, especially to women, during
the riots of Kharkov in the spring of
last year. Ill treatment of women by
the Cossacks, conived at by Obolen-
sky, provoked so general and violent
an outcry that even the submissive
provincial council found courage to
boycott him. His appointment as gov
ernor general means that the Russifl-
cation of Finland will become a fact,
or that rebellion will fill the country
with blood.
Prince Obolensky has arrived in
Helsingfors with orders from the czar
to initiate an immediate policy Of re-
will be abolished. Leading Swedes.
including the intellectual leaders OF
the community, will either be deported
or exiled. All Finnish and Swedish
newspapers which have published arti-
cles sympathizing with the assassin
and his family will be suppressed.
Altho the grave of Schaumann. the
assassin Of Bobrikoff, is watched day
and night by secret police, hundreds
go to visit it daily. Numerous arrests
have been made in the cemetery, in
Guiding women and children, all OF
whom are treated as criminals. Stu
dents of the University of Helsingfors
will also be made to suffer for Bob
rikoff's death. One hundred have al
ready been stricken off the rolls. Sew
eral professors are marked for dis.
missal.

Reason for Expedition Comes to

Washington, July THE discreet
inquiries of the state department into
the object of the British Tibetan ex-
petition, as related in yesterdays
Associated Press cablegram from Lon
don. discloses curious fact; namely,
that the British home government
was lukewarm, If not absolutely in
different in the matter of sending
Younghusbands expedition toward
Lhassa. Indeed, it is said here that
Colonel Younghusband was allowed
to go forward only to save the pride
of Viceroy Curzon. The latter fan
cied that he had not been treated
with proper consideration by the
half-wild Tibetans and, failing to Sc
cure what he deemed due official rec
ognition of the representative of the
Indian government sent by him Into
Tibet, he appealed to the home gov
proper treatment for his ENJOYS, and
the home government reluctantly as
scented.
It Is said here that the Brit

dicated its willingness to with
draw the expedition as soon as

promises Of yielding the points at Is.

LIND DEFEAT AS
TONNES REVENGE
Fight on Congressman in Mime
sofa Attributed to Enmity of
Former Senator.
From q Staff Correspondent.

From Staff Correspondent.
st. Louis, July Friends Of John
Lind think they see the fine Italian
hand of Charles "A. Towne, Tammany
chieftain and erstwhile senator from
Minnesota, in the action by the dele
cation caucus Tuesday night. Tho
Towne is not a Hearst man, the nu-
cleus of the Hearst omvement in Min
nesota was framed from Towne,s old
ueutenants, who still feel a certain
allegiance to him. James r. Bennett,
Jr., who led the Hearst campaign in
the state; g. q. Vasaly, selected for
the resolutions committee, and T. T.
Hudson, new national committeeman,
are all old sixth district men.
Bennett has been keeping close to
Towne and also staying with the
Hearst delegates from Minnesota, so
the element cluster ed around Lind
feels there Is close connection between
the plans of Towne and Lind's defeat
for the resolutions committee.
It is said. With II show Of reason,
that relations sAS twSen Lind and
Tpwne have neye,, 4 been very cordial
since the senassi iii episode. Towne
felt hurt because the appointment was
first offered to- Judge Collins and felt
that his abilities aand party services
were not properly appreciated. There
1s a suspicion among Lind's friends
that this feeling had much to do with
what they term the "anti-Lind COM
bine' formed in the delegation. Some
Of the men who voted against Lind
come, but they were bound by caucus
agreement and 1t is not likely any
amount Of argument would have
changed them.

TROOPS HUNTING
RETURNED EXILES
Masked Men Take Party Of Five
From Hands Of
.~.-.. Deputies.

Victor, Col, July 7.-Anxiety is felt
here for the safety of five men who
were deported from this district but
have returned. The men were placed
under arrest by the civil authorities as
soon as it was learned that they had
defied the deportation orders.
Two deputy sheriffs started to escort
them out of the camp. At point
west of the city near the Santa Rita
mine, the deputies were suddenly con-
fronted by half a dozen heavily armed
masked men. The prisoners were TAX
en- from the deputies, also the depu-
ties guns, and they were ordered to
return to town. This order they
obeyed.
A short distance from where the
masked men first appeared the depu-
ties saw large band of masked men,
numbering about fifty.
Immediately upon returning to the
city, the deputies told the sheriff s
office and the military headquarters
Of their experience. Details of the
! troops were sent out to search for the
men. Sheriff Edward Bell also head
ed a posse in pursuit, but both parties
returned to the city after several
hours fruitless search. The hunt has
| been resumed by the military.

CRUSHED UNDER
TONS OF ROCK
Charles Franzen Killed by a FALL
ing Wall on Ninth
Avenue S.

Charles A. Franzen, 2402 Tenth
avenue S, was instantly killed and
Herman Gulbrandsen, 1103h Seventh
street S, seriously Injured by a fall
ing wall at Third street and Ninth
avenue S at 1880 this morning.
Franzen and Gulbrandsen were en-
ployed in excavating for the new
building Of the United States Radia-
tor company, and had been ordered
by the foreman to dig near the wall
Of the Minnesota Linseed Oil Paint
company, which adjoins the excava-
ton. The men had dug nearly three
feet below the base Of the founda-
ton wall, leaving shelf eighteen
inches wide. Suddenly the sandy soil
gave way and the wall was preclp1-
tatad upon them.
Franzen was caught beneath sew
eral tons Of rock and his body was
badly crushed, his brains being liter
ally strewn about the place.
Gulbrandsen was almost out or the
was struck on the head by small
rock. He was taken to the city hos
pital, suffering from concussion Of
the brain, but the surgeons said there
was no fracture, and he would re-
cover.
Coroner U. G.. Williams will make
an effort to learn whether the fore
man ordered the men into a. place
that was obviously dangerous. An in.
| quest, however, will not be held or
account of the court ruling that ar
inquest can be held only when there
| Is reason for the coroner to believe
| that death has come about thru crime
After the accident 1t was said By
| bystanders that the ground was toe
sandy to make it safe to dig three
feet below the base Of SO heavy a wal
and so close to it. .
The wall which fell was eight fee
high, built Of heavy stone, and abou
| fifteen feet long.
F'ranzen, who was killed, was JUS
starting his second days work on thu
excavation, having been employed
yesterday.
