Cars Sincerity Is Doubted.

Toxic, July 20. - 1t is believed that
Emperor Nicholas recently sent an en-
couraging message to General Linie-
witch, promising him men, provisions
and other necessities for attaining a
victory. 1t is also reported that the
Russian emperor recently ordered the
mobilization of four army corps. This
fact, taken in connection with the re-
ported limitation of NJ. Whites power
as chief peace plenipotentiary, is
deemed to be sign that Russia is not
sincere in her expressed desire for the
conclusion of peace.

Many Deaths and PrOSiratIOnS in
Eastern States.
STORM AFFORDS SOME RELIEF
Crowded Tenement Districts of New
York Are the Worst--Deaths
Reach rs in One Day.

New York, July 20.-While the rec
ord Of deaths and prostrations greatly
exceeded that Of yesterday, there was a
distinct diminution today in the tenn
perature prevailing throughout the
eastern section of the country, Al
though the midday heat was every
where terrific, it was broken by scatter
ing thunderstorms, many of which were
Of a violent character, and toward
evening the temperature fell rapidly.
With this welcome relief came the an
nouncement from the weather bureau
tonight that the abatement in the
heated term had been general and that
moderate temperatures would probably
prevail. for several days in the Middle
Atlantic and New England states.
In New York the highest tempera-
ture recorded was 95, one degree lower
than that Of yesterday, when the high
est record of the season was reached.
Philadelphia reported slightly higher
maximum range, and in many other
cities the highest point of yesterday
was not touched, while everywhere a
sharp fall was noticed, beginning early
in the afternoon.
AS usual the maximum official tenn
peratures everywhere were exceeded by
those prevailing in the crowded dis
tricts, where the actual temperatures
frequently exceeded 100 degrees.
The cumulative effect of the contin-
ued torridity of these districts was
painfully evident in the enormous in
crease of the number of deaths in New
York. While the death roll of yester-
day was only 26, that Of today reached
the appalling total Of rs, being nearly
half of those prostrated. This was al
most entirely due to the collapse Of
women and children and aged persons
whose exhausted vitality was unequal
to the strain of further suffering.

Such expert control will be especially valuable in solving the problem of the best way to get rid of the slash. which. until burn ed. is a constant menace to the forests. Extensive experiments in slash burning have already been carried on by the Bureau with satisfactory results.
 The Bureau agents are also studying the habits and rate of growth of sugar and yellow pine to determine the prac- ticability of numbering so as to secure a second crop.

 Senate Expires.

Washington, Jan. 12.-The President today sent to the Senate the nomina- ton of James D. Yeomans. of Iowa, to be Inter-State Commerce Commis- sioner.
 Yeoman's term expired on the 7th instant. It was the idea of the President that he would continue as a member of the commission until his successor had qualified. Lawyers in Cong ress held however that the appointment of member of that commission Is for a definite period and that therefore Mir. Yeomans ceased on the 7th instant to be member of the body.
 The President referred the matter to Attorney General Moody for an opln- ion. His opinion. submitted to the President today Is in accord with the general view in Congress that Mir. Yeomas is not now a member of the commission. The President consequent ly sent the appointment of Mr. Yeo- mans to the Senate, the understanding being that he will serve as a member of the body until the term of Senator Cockrell In the Senate shall expire.
