Vienna, Feb. 12.-Dispatches
from St. Petersburg indicate thai in
spite of the patriotic demonstra ions
that have been reported from ST.
Petersburg and NJ ,scow, there is a
lack of enthusiasm among the great
masses of pr asantry in the interior
districts. These dispatches say the
revolutionary element of the coun-
try is growing most active in the
remote regions and that there is
spirit of discomfort which grows
more dangerous to the government
none ,terily. The rebellious
movement is passing beyond the
co ltrol of the police in some dis
t lets, and an awful revolution sim
liar to the reign of terror in France
is believed within tae bounds oi
possibility.
AL of these conditions, it is BE-
lieyed, Influenced the Gear through
oat t,,le negotiations with Jaran OF
the side Of peace. 1t is pointed ou1
that with the main fighting body o.
the Russian army actively engaged
in Corea and M4nchuria, the czal
realize / that he would be endar ger
ed from internal sou1css, and held
out against the war party so long
as he could safely do so without in.
curing the displeasure of Tie most
powerful of his advisers.
L. is thought probable here, also
that there will be considerable dan
ger to Russia through secret agents
of revolutionary parties who may
be with the army in the Far Eaat
! and who would readily risk thei,
lives to betray the army t. the Jap
anese.

THE LAND FRAUDS
MORE LIGHT ON DEALINGS
OF HYDE AND BENSON.
Tip Money Found on Wsshstand
and in Overcoat-Many Valu-
able Tracts Were Illegally
,Secured-Clerk Was
Made Tool.

Washington, Feb. 15.-The Fed
eral grand jury in this city is list
ening to testimony in the famous
Benson-Hyde land fraud case, and
from evidence alre ady submitted
Secretary Hitchcock is confident
that number of Indictments will
res ult. Several witnesses who have
been examined confirm, to the mi
nutest detail, the exposure made in
The Oregonian of October 81, 1903,
of the methods pursued by the lieu
land ring, but the testimony goes
further and duplicates several gov
ernment employes, both in Wash
ington and in the West. There are
also indications that persons in
high places may be reached before
the end.
One of the most important wit
nesses yet examined is a clerk in
the general land Office. who admit
ted he had co.orerated with Ben
son and had furnished him with
advance information whenever the
department was preparing to create
forest reserves. This clerks -serv-
ice was engaged by Benson, so it
was testified, during one of Benson's
visits 10 Washington. When the
two had reached an understanding
tie clerk was invited to call on
Bensoo at the hotel.
Afr brief conversation Benson
asked his visitor if he would like to
wash his hands. Taking the hint
the clerk stepped into the bathroom,
found 500 bill on the washstand
and promptly appropriated il. He tes-
tilted that after subsequent visits to
Benson he found large sums Of mon
ey in his overcoat pocket, and at
other times when Benson was in
San Francisco he received money
at differ5at times through the mails.
No Litter accompanied the funds,
which were invariably inclosed in
blank envelopes.
So great became the demands of
| Beuson for information that this
clerk found it necessary to employ
confederate, and it is then believ-
ed that Harlan, who was chief OF
the forestry division at the time,
was taken into the scheme. ,Togeth-
er these two men, it is alleged, By
utilizing a cipher code furnished by
! Benson, kept the San Francisco Of
flee advised whenever and wherever
reserves were to be created, and
gave them such other inside inform
alton as would assist them in their
operations.

Grangers and school patrons,
which assures good attendance.
The meeting last year was well at
tended, and most enthusiastic
meeting was enjoyed by all. Real
izing the interest taken then, the
present meeting will be enthusiastic
and profitable. The Grange Hall
is about half a mile from the north
end of the albany bridge on the
river road. The following program
has been arranged:
Address, Superintendent G. w.
Denman.

New York, Feb. 12.-The Japan
ese troops landed at Gensan are in.
tended cooperate with the troops
that are now been successfully land
ed at Pingyang, on the opposite
side Of the Corean peninsula, says a
World dispatch from Kobe, Japan.
These two forces constituts Japan g
second line of defence against the
Russians, who are marching over
the Yslu into Corea.
A first line of defense has been
arranged, 1t is composed ofipicked
troops, who are lined up along the
south bank of the Yalu. 1t is con-
sidered most unlikely that this ar.
my will reach its destination in
time to intercept the invading Rus
slams.
The second line may fail to hold
the invaders, in which case it is ex-
pected that a land battle will take
place not far from Seoul.
In any case the japanese prepara-
tions are made with view of clos.
ing in on any body of Russian
troops that succeeds in forcing its
way into the intsrior of Ccrea. Mo-
bilization of the army has been ef-
fscted without hitch. The trans.
portation and supplies by means of
the railway from the interior to the
coast proceed with great precision.
San Francisco, Feb. I2.-The Jap
anese residents in this city have de-
cided to undertake the work of rails
ing war fund of $5,O00,OO0 for the
assistance of their country in the
fight against Russia. Consul Uye-
no presided at the meeting, and be
was elected to take permanent
charge of the work, appoint COM
mittees and supe,intend the trans
fer of money to the home country.
About 200 Of the most promi-
nent residents of the local Japanese
colony attended the meeting. Ma
ny patriotic speeches were made
and the general sentiment was thai
if the japanese are not needed fol
actual fighting they should contrib
ute everything they possess if neces
sary. San Francisco is expected t,
begin the work by the early raisinl
of $500, 900 to 81 100000, and call
for funds will be made upon tn,
Japanese in every California city
in Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico
Colorado Utah, and the movemsn
will be extended to the eastern
states, where there are many yer,
many wealthy japanese, and t.
Mexico and to British Columbia.
Each contributor will be permit
ted to say whether the money givel
by him shall go into the govern
ment war fund, the red-cross funt
