ASSASSIN KILLS RUSSIAN MINIS

DONE IN CROWDED STREET

CHICAGO.

st. Petersburg, July administer of
the Interior Won Plehve was assassi-
mated this morning. While he was
driving to the Baltic station to visit
the emperor at the Peterhof palace, a
bomb was thrown under the minis
ter's carriage, completely SCATTERING
it. Won Plehve was terribly mangled.
The crime was committed at 10
o'clock. The assassin was arrested
and was said to be a Jew. He declin-
ed to give his name.
Regarding the identity of the assas-
sin and the cause of the crime, by
some it is said the act was that of
a Finn, and by others that the MUIR
derer was a partisan of the Zemstovs,
the curtailment of whose power is at
tributed to the dead minister. Moth
ing, however, has been definitely es-
tablished as yet.
The project of police notified the EN-.
peror of the tragedy Immediately upon
it's occurrence. The emperor, who
was at the villa Alexandria at Peter
hot, was greatly affected by the news,
coming as it did on top of the bad
tidings from the seat of war, fears
of international complications, and the
strain incident upon the hours expec-
tation of an event so close to the
fathers heart. The emperor almost
broke down when informed of the
minister's murder. Whatever may
have been the motive for the crime,
nothing but the utmost indignation.
and condemnation of the %assassin's
act is voiced anywhere.

bomb he shouted, Long live freedom"
with a little Russian accent. His
name has not been ascertained, and
the prisoner told the police that he
had no accomplish. 1t is established,
however, that the mar is not a
Jew, as was at first reported.
Altogether, IA outsiders were in
jured by the explosion. Captain Tsven-
sky, of the guards, who was driving
in a cab, sustained a fracture of the
skull. 1t has been trephained, but the
captain is not expected to recover.
The bomb was filled with nails, not
bullets, as at first believed. The out.
rage is connected by the police with
an explosion at Kharkoff three days
ago. It is supposed the bombs were
manufactured there.
The crime is believed to be the
outcome of an international anarchist
movement with which Gerschunin, the
Russian revolutionary agitator, who
was arrested at Kieff, in June, 1903
was connected. Gerschunin, it is as,
serted, was the organizer of the muir.

BUTCHERS ALSO co BACK
Men That Walked Out Elsewhere Ar
rive at Chicago Prepared
to Work.

Chicago, July 2S.-The packers to.
day won an important incidental vic
tory in the big stockyards strike, the
first emphatic gain of the kind that
has been made since the general walk
out was declared. In effect, 800 live
stock handlers threw aside their al
legiance to the allied trades, and. this
afternoon began to handle shipments
Unfortunately, both for the packers
in the combine and for the indepen-
dent packers.
This afternoon 1873 men, all mem
bers of the union, deserted the strik-
ers and returned to work at the Ar
mour plant. Twenty-eight of the num-
Der are car icers. The others are skill
ed butchers, who yer formerly en-
ployed in the cattle, hog and sheep
departments. Every man was put to

1--WE have got the strikers now,-
declared Captain Conway of the Ar
mour plant. Every packer is going
ahead as though there was no strike,
and the operations are in full swing.
TIL striking union men are deserving
and coming back in droves."
A crowd of packing house men ETH
mated at 300 were reported as arriv-
ing here today from Kansas City and
Omaha, where they had been on
strike. They were said to be union
men who yer tired of being idle, but
did not wish to return to work in
their homes.
Arthur Meeker, Of the Armour com.
pany, today declared that the answer
given by the packers at the conference
with the state board Of arbitration
last night, reflected in its entirety the
position of the packers, and that the
statement attributed to him that the
packers were willing to go back to
the agreement entered into with Mr.
Donnelly's organization was entirely
unfounded.
"Our position" he said, "is that we
had an agreement with the b'~chers
organization and the allied trades
which they have failed to live up to,
and under the circumstances the pack
ers do not care to make any further
agreements with them
Following the refusal to enter into
more agreements with the striking
workmen at the stockyards, the Swift
company today sent a bomb into the
camp of the sympathetic strikers be
longing to the allied trades by posting
the following notice:
"All help leaving our employ, July
1926, will be paid in full at our Forty
first street market, payments to begir
Thursday, July %, at 8 a. m"
The appearance of the notice was
greeted with angry EXPLANATIONS from
the crowds that DON gathered to reat
it. The place named for the men tt
apply for their money is outside TIL
stockyards proper. 1t was selected
as affording the least possibility TO
disorder.

Pierre papers keep insisting
that the center of population is
travelling in a northwesterly di-
rection from year to year and that
it is already as near Pierre as
Mitchell. They avoid giving fig
ire to back the claim; and in
fact, would rather not see the
figures. In 1890 Hughes county
had 5044 population; Dawson
county, 5449. In 1900 Hughes
had 1854, losing IN ten years 1860.
Dawson county had, ID 1900,
1883, gaining 2034. Another
fact that should be noted in this
connection is that the Oldest coun-
ties IN the state, the most density
populated, have made great gains
ID the last ten years. Union county
ID 1890 had 913o, and in 1900,

party has always said such revis-

democrats, but that the tariff
should be "revised by its friends'

$500 negroes which is more than any
with 1925; then New Orleans, with
77,714, and Philadelphia, with 62.613
According to Mr.. Pattison's estimate
Philadelphia has now about 1000. The
other cities mentioned above have
probably Increased in about the same
proportion. All Philadelphia people
agree that this influx of negroes Is
misfortune, and the great prevalence
of crime is attributed to this undestra-

Is said that many negroes leave the
South because they cannot vote there.
They make amends, Governor Pattison

Customers.

One of the greatest successes in the
sale of a medicine has been achieved
by Mona. the dyspepsia remedy, and
it's sale is increasing so rapidly that
E. G. Fowler, the popular druggist, has
hard work to keep a stock on hand.
1t is very popular with we'll known
bankers, ministers, lawyers and others
whose business or profession keeps
them closely confined, while those who
have brought on indigestion through
irregular eating, worry or other causes,
have found a cure in this reliable
remedy.
Mi-o-na is in the form of small tab
lets and is sold in a metal box espe-
cially designed for convenience in car
rying the medicine in the pocket or
purse. 1t is pleasant to take; costs
but SOC, gives quick relief and makes
lasting cures.
This remedy has been so uniformly
successful and made so many remark
able cures that Mr.. Fowler will in fu-
ture sell Mi ma under a positive guar
anatee to refund the money If it should
NOT cure. No other dyspepsia medicine
ever had large enough percentage
~ cure so that It could be sold in this
manner. A guarantee like this speaks
volnmes for the merit of the remedy.
