ALL EYES ON MOSCOW
A Struggle is Now on in the
Zemstvo Congress
OVER PREMIER WITTE
POWERFUL MEN CoNTENDINc
FOR POLICY OF NEW REGIME.
Fourth Day Of Deliberations Whose
Results Mean Much for Success
Of Governments Plans.

ST. PETERSBURG, November 22.--All
eyes continued to be riveted on Moscow,
where the struggle in the zemstvo congress
or the question of supporting Premier Witte
is continuing.
Some Of the most powerful men in the
congress are urging the necessity for rally
ing the moderate sentiment in support Of
the government, but the irreconclable rad
ical element appears to make split inev-
table
Should q resolution to support the pre-
mier be carried It seems almost certain that
it will be coupled with conditions. The idea
of constituent assembly seems TO have
been abandoned, but not the demand for
universal suffrage, to which the premier is
likely to yield
Prince Dolgoroukoff's Plea.
The only direct proposition thus far be-
fore the congress is Prince Dolgoroukoff' S
plea for support of the government so long
as it follows the principles of constitu-
tional regime But the section under the
leadership of NJ. Roberti insists that port
folios be given to men known to be in SYM
pathy with the cause OF freedom. universal
Suffrage and the immediate trial and pun
ishmcnt Of all officials guilty of connection
with the recent massacrcs.
Prince Eugene Troubetskoy,s followers
will be content with an advisory council
for the cabinet
Dnitri Shfpoff and NJ. Guchoff who may
be regarded as Count Witte's Representa-
tfves III the congress, are watching the
trend of sentiment, but have net yet shown
their hands.
Looks Favorable TO Government.
The prolongation of the struggle. now in
j- 1ed
able to the government, since with the ex-
ception of a few extremists who declare
that no alliance with the present govern
ment is possible, practically all the leaders
of every shade of opinion have expressed
the realization that only co-operatIon with
the government could prevent reign of
terror ard anarchy
The Russ declares that the liberals who.
are being blamed for not supporting the
government are totally misunderstood
abroad where Count Witte Is regarded as
the savior Of Russia from the monarchy
and reaction.

At THE WHITE HOUSE
Judge Penfeld Returns From
His Mission.
SEES THE PRESIDENT
BUT HE ONLY HAS A BRIEF CON-
FERENCE.
Important Kentucky Appointments
Made, Also Some in Idaho-some
of Today's Callers.

Judge W. l.. Penfield, solicitor of the State
Department. after a long secret mission to
South America most of the time spent in
Brazil, had conference with President
Roosevelt this morning 1t was brief, but
he is expected to have a longer talk with
the President and at the same time SUBJ
init written report of his observations on
the subject which he was sent to invesu-
gate.
1t is persistently reported that Judge PEN
field was sent to South America to report
upon the alleged aggresslons of the Ger
mans In that part of the world, and that he
also stopped at other places in South Amer
lea and the West Indies where it was re-
ported the Germans were making secret
inroads upon the Monroe doctrine.
Judge Penheld himself would not admit or
discredit anything When he was told what
the story was he laughed and said Good
bye" When told that this might lead to an
Inference that the story was true, he said:
You will have to wait for a statement
from the President
If the mission of Judge Penfield was such
described in the report no better agent
could have been selected by the President,
SO far as keeping secret Is concerned.
1t has long been declared that the Ger
mans We're not only making aggressfons In
every direction under the direct manage
ment of Kaiser Wilhelm but that they were
laying the foundation for more serious ill.,
trngement OF the Monroe doctrine at a
later date. Their aggressions so far have
not, in many instances, been Of a serious
nature, being just the border of disre-
gard of the doctrine promulgated by Mon
roe and upheld by President Roosevelt In
most definite way. In Brazil 1t has come
to be known that the Germans are coloniz-
ing on an extensive scale. They are going
into that country in large numbers, and
are making large investments. They are re-
tllning their nationality and are not being
absorbed into the popula ton of the republic
as is the case. when they come to this
country 1t is feared in many quarters that
this may eventually lead to trouble with
Brazil and finally with fha J'nitel

To be a successful wife, to retain the love and admiration of her husband, should be a woman's constant study. At the first indication of ill-health, painful or irregular menstruation, headache or backache, secure Lydia E. Pinkhan's Vegetable Compound and begin its use.
 Mrs. Chas. F. Brown, Vice-President Mothers Club, 21 Cedar Terrace, Hot Springs, Ark, writes:

MIME. REJANE'S KICK.

The Inter Ocean would like to apOlo- gize for publishing on the first page of yesterdays issue, as a social sean dal, an item which properly belonged in the financial news on the seventh page.
 At first blush the casual reader might have overlooked the Unintentional err TOT, but a little thought would have convinced him, as it doubtless did, that any mention of Mime. Rejane at this time, even though in connection with a divorce suit, should be allotted posi- tion under the head of general fnan- cial news.
 For in recent years no more power ful single factor has operated to bring about an upheaval i0 the finances of this country than Mime. Rejane. or, strictly speaking, Mime. Rejane's kick. All previous fiscal disturbances were due to combinations of circumstances rather than to any cause in particular, but the distracting situation which has resulted from the exposure of life in surance management, and the depress- upon the past, present and future of some of our leading financiers and statesmen is attributable directly to the artistic kicking with which Mime Rejane regaled happy company brought together by James Hagen Hyde at the expense of the Equitable policy holders.

TUCSON CONTESTS
 WHAT THEY'RE MADE OF
Dissatisfied Lawyers and Turned
 Down and Longing Politicians.

Attorney Charles Blenman of Tucson, was in the city yesterday on business. Speaking of the joint statehood senti- ment there, MT. Blenman said it was confined entirely to a few attorneys, republican politicians who had been turned down by their own party in the city and county elections and a very few impatient democrats who are hopeless of ever again getting anything in the way of federal appointment in this territory. He said that none of these jointists are seriously considered by the business men and the mass of the people. MT. Blenman, like a ma jority of the people of Tucson was not drawn out to the joint statehood meet ing on Saturday night but from what he had since heard of it he regarded it as a ridiculous affair.
 One of the jointure advocates is Judge Owen T. Rouse, whose argument is that the present system of judiciary is a bad one; that judges selected under it are apt to be unfit and that as matter of fact they are unfit. It will be remembered, said MT. Blenman, that for four years, during the first Cleveland administration, Judge Rouse was United States attorney and that during the last administration, he was for four years, a member of the su- preme bench of the territory It is barely possible, says MT. Blenman, that Judge Rouse bases his opinion on the judiciary system upon his know ledge of the results of it during the last Cleveland administration.

YOUNG WOMAN BURGLAR.

A remarkable case of swindling and burglarious sacrilege by a young wO- man of good family has just been de- cided by the assize court of Dantzic The young womans name is Helene Groukowsky, and she is 22 years of age. The daughter of a government contractor, she ran away from home a year ago in search of a more eXcit- inC lifc, which went well enough until the money stolen from her parents was gone. Then she was driven to heI wits for a living, and after commit ting a number of swindles in the as sumed character of a lady of title and a general officers daughter she was one night caught red-handed in the parish church of Zoppot, while in the act of forcing the plate chest in the sacrsty. Her sentence was one oi two years hard labor.

2order received a letter yesterday that the plans were enroute back from Io- boken, N. J., by express, though they have not yet been received. In the meantime the council was long ago in formed by Mir. Reeves that he had found it necessary to make the plans all over again, and at the same time presenting bill for $347.5O, which he said was not the regular fees, but charge for the time of his draftsmen in making the new plans. The council therefore has insisted that Mir. Reeves had exceeded his instructions in mak- ing new plans and demurred in the payment of the bill. Last night the recorder presented another letter from MT. Reeves, requesting his money so he could balance his books.
 These incidents opened up a gen. eral discussion of the library question. during which the acting mayor said he was receiving frequent protests from certain quarters against the construc- tion of any library building, for req sons that nave already been discussed at length by the public. Another councilman suggested that when the capital is moved to Santa Fe the capi- tol building could be bought very cheap and turned into a library. An other remarked that he thought it would be fine quarters for the fire de- partment with a library upstairs. Then aame as incidental information the suggestion that Mir. Norton's bill for the original plans was about S1.200, whereupon the acting mayor said he believed that MT. Carnegie should be given to the architects for part pay and the capitol building be turned into a home for broken down blacksmiths.
 But, getting back to business. the only thing before the house was the question of the Reeves bill. and MT. Green was made committee of one to write to him and explain the views of the council.
 MT. Hageman appeared before the council and made an impressive talk concerning the elimination of section seven from the plumbing ordinance, as its provisions were useless and hard ship both to builders and plumbers. The result of the discussion was an in struction to the city attorney to secure copies of various plumbing laws in Los Angeles and other cities, and, with the chairman of the buildings and grounds committee. report their recommendations to the council.
 Permission was given for the erec- tion of gospel tent, providing the se- lection of site be approved by the marshal. wEo was to be governed in his approval by the sanction of adja- cent residents. As the surety compa- nies have no form of bond applicable to the use of the city water commis- sioners, the city attorney was instruct ed to draft such a document as was needed.
 The marshal was instructed to di- rect the fire chief to try and have the water company flush the fire hydrants and see that they were all in order. Many of them have not been used for a year or two, and it is feared that they are rusted and might not be easily opened in an emergency.

have been said about the Hyde dinner, and the Hyde dinner was the begin ming of that long series of troubles to
 which MT. Hughes of New York is now devoting his legal talents.
 So it was Mime. Rejanes kick that was responsible. If she had not kicked
 at the Hyde dinner, the elder McCurdy
 would still be drawing a salary of $150,- 900 year and living in four magnifi- cent and sumptuously furnished man. sions, while his son, his son-in-law and all of his relatives by blood and mar riage would still be fattening on the
 Mutua! premiums.
 If Mime. Rejane had not kicked, we should never have heard of a cantank- erous person up the river, Chauncey M. Depew would still be an after dinner talker. Thomas c. Platt would not have taken us all into his cOnfi- dence regarding the collection of cam paign contributions, MT. Mccall would not be waiting to have others make up his mind, MT. Ryan would not have to answer questions from which he in stinctively shrinks, Mir Alexander would not have taken to the Pennsyl- vania woods. young MT. Hyde would , not be out of a job, and Grover Cleve-
 land would not be sitting up nights
 striving to differentiate between good
 and doubtful risks.
 Tn short, if Mme. Rejane had not
 kicked, the outlook, which once seemed
 filled with perpetual sunshine for all
 the captains of industry, would not now
 be filled with deep gloom. Little did
 Mime. Rejane think-little did those
 who were fortunate enough to be pres
 ent at the Hyde dinner think-as she kicked amidst the champagne glasses on the table, that she was kicking holes that never could ho mended in so many bright prospects and so many
 unimpeachable regulations. - Chicago Inter ocean.

THE CITY ELECTION
 GOES OVER 10 MAY
The Water Works Bond Matter Will
 Rest Until Then.

A special meeting of the city council was held last night to consider let ter received from w. R. Todd & Co.,
 water works bonds. However, a num- Der of other matters were discussed as well. It will be remembered that after the bonds were sold it was pro- posed to call a special election for the naming of a mayor, that no time might be lost in dispOsing of the bonds. The city attorney drew an election ordi- nance, which was forwarded to Todd & Co.,. for approval, that there might be no misunderstanding with them af- ter such election. Their attorney was not at home, and it is Dnly at this time that their answer has been received inclosing the letter of their attorney to them. The opinion is given that with the information at hand the at torney was not sure that special election could be called legally for that purpose but if It could be called at all it would be as legal now as at any time. for the reason that the regular election next spring is only for council men, and if a mayor is elected then it would be no less a special election in his case. Of the authority for calling the election, however, there seems to be no doubt on the part of the city at torney or T. J. Prescott, the local rep resentative of Todd & Co, the election being provided for in the charter.
 However, they hold that there will be less objection on the part of the people if the council waits until the regular campaign, when one registration will do for both purposes, and when a special clause may be inserted in the regular election ordinance to provide for the naming of a mayor. Not more than two months could now be saved in time at the best, and the expense of an extra campaign does not justify it in the opinion of the council. Todd & Co, made no important objection to the ordinance as drawn, except that it provided for publication of the call in only the republican and democratic papers, while it was suggested that the publication should be made in the la bOr and socialist organs also, if there were any in the county. There will therefore be no mayoralty campaign uutil the regular election.
 The matter next of interest was that of the Carnegie library. As has been heretofore announced, the plans of w. R. Norton were forwarded to w. H. Reeves, of Peoria, H., an architect who first saw them while he was spending the winter here, with instructions to make any changes he suggested, pro- viding he did not increase the cost of the building. and then forward them to MT. Carnegie's representative. The re-

The British government will reim- purse the naval officers for the money they spent in entertaining the French fleet at Portsmouth. A naval officer said recently to the London Express :: 'I understand there is likely to be a bit of an outcry when the Second cruiser squadron gets back to England about the heavy outlay to which the officers have been subjected during the Ameri- can visit.
