NEARING coMPI,E ,ETToN.

The new trolley line that is being built to connect with the main line at Monto- wese is very near completion. The tracks and poles are now nearly all laid and erected and the fishing touches are being given to this part of the work.
 The most difficult part is probably the erection of three bridges, one especially at Whartons creek near the North Ha- ven line, while an arch Is being erected Under the Air Line railroad. The new line will probably be opened late in the fall and will open another desirable line of communication and af- fcrd another pleasant route for trolley excursions.

RUSSIAN EASTER.
Celebration Of the Day in a Peaceful
Fash;on-Expected Outbreak
Was Prevented,

st. Petersburg, April 12.-The Associated
Press has received special reports from all
Jewish districts Of Russia regarding the
happenings of Easter Sunday. Up to 2
o'clock this morning, according to these
dispatches. the Russian Easter passed
quietly. and there was absolutely no at
tempt to modest the Jews, the provincial
governors acting in accordance with in
structions from St. Petersburg. There
was, faithful execution Of the governors
orders to the local authorities, and the
police prevented the outbreaks which
were feared at Kisinef, the scene of the
disturbances last Easter. There was not
a single case there in which Jews and
Christians were involved. The govern
ment officials here are gratifed that order
has been SO generally preserved.
The following dispatches nave been re-
celved by the Associated Press:
Odessa-The day passed quietly. There
wa no attempt at a disturbance and none
was expected. The reports circulated at
Ekaterinoslav Of an outbreak at Odessa
are false.
Kishinef-This city has been entirely
tranquil today.
Kieff-Perfect order prevailed here dur
hiatt is reported that two Jews as
saulted a local Waterman yesterday, cut
ting him with knives. Perfect order pre-
vailed today.
Balta-This city was tranquil today.
Observation-Disclosures day was quiet.
GrOdna-No attempt were made today to
disturb the peace.
~Vitebsk-There was no disorder of any
kind here during the Easter day celebra-
ton.
Minsk-As usual at Easter there was
some rowdy;sm here today, but it did not
lead to any serious disturbances.
This city yesterday was en- fete and was
given up to Easter rejoicing. The long
Russian feasts, which began after mid
NIGHT and continued almost tn DAYLIGHT
were scarcely ended before the round Of
Easter visits commenced. It Is the duty
of every Russian at Easter to call upon
all bis friends, and to eat and drink with
them. Open house was kept everywhere,
and the latchstring was out for all. The
oretically the beggar Of the streets enters
at will the dining room Of the noble and
helps himself to the good things of the ta-
Bile. This, however, is no longer the case
In the metropolis and the larger towns 81
the empire, but it is still literally true In
the villages and rural communities, where
no one Is refused admittance.
SO onerous have official and private Eas-
ter visits become that the Red Cross So
ciety this year evolved an ingenious means
of relief and to benefit It's treasury by
which a subscription of $50 secures the
publication of the donors nam in the
official Messenger, carrying with 1t i'm
nIunity from official calls. Many eagerly
took advantage OF the scheme.
The masses spent the day In merrymak-
ing.
i The enperor's sailors and soldiers In
the far east telegraphed Easter greetings
ito their friends at home through the No
woe Vremya, which are published In four
columns of small type. with the sigma
lures to the dispatches. The messages
breath the deepest owe Of country, and
afford striking evidence Of the religious
bond uniting Russians.

JAPAN IS BUYING
more BATTlESHIPS
Orders for Two Most Powerful
in the World Are Placed
in England.
WILL BE 445 FEET LONG
vessels Will Be Constructed Just al
Rapidly as Possible in the British
Yards-Japan Must Get
- Them to East.

London, April 1.-Two new battle
ships ordered In England by Japan will
be exceedingly powerful. Their length
IS 10 be 446 feet, exceeding the most
powerful of British battleships by 20
teet. In order to meet the capacity Of
docking accommodations in Japan,
pealn and draught have been fixed at
% and 26 feet respectively.
Each vessel will have a displacement
of 16.40O tons. Their main batteries
VIII be the most powerful yet devised,
consisting OF four twelve inch guns,
TOUR ten lnch and five six inch. A new
feature Will be a Sup~erstructure of four
men armor, insuring that no part Of
the upper works will be unprotected.
Ihey VIII be constructed as speedily
as possible, will have a speed OF 10 knots
ana be able to discharge eleven tons
of projectiles per minute from their
main batteries.
In addition to the battleships actually
ordered. the Japanese are contemplate
ing ordering two more vessels of like
description TO be built here.
Deal Is Regular.
Under the accepted construction OF
the law Of nations, dating especially
from the time of the settlement of the
Alabama claims, Japan may buy war
ships in England during the progress Of
war. but must be responsible for getting
them to the far east. From the time
the new battleships are turned over to
her, she will be obliged to get them
out Of port, and at no time will be per-
mitted to take, at any Neutral port,
more than enough coal to get them to
the nearest home port. However. this
regulation will not embarass Japan, for
the nearest Japanese port will be ex-
actly where Japan will want them.
Shows Japan's Confidence.
Japan's cheerful confidence of her
control Of the sea is shown by this
order for two battleships. While Russia
is sweating over the great problem Of
getting her Baltic and Black sea fleets
out OF limbo and around to the scene
Of operations, Japan calmly orders q
few million dollars worth of battle
ships, never questioning that two years
hence, when they are finished, they
will be able to sail half way around
the world. Doubtless they will be, for
Il pair of sue monsters would be able
to AXE good care Of themselves against
the entire surviving navy Of Russia.
