pie have lost their lives, the majority
of the fatalities being in the south

houses and towns are great.
The loss of cattle on the ranges,
particularly on those lying in the
northern part of the tier of states, will
be very heavy.

New Version Of the Departure OF
Grippenberg.

According to the latest gossip at
the war Office in st. Petersburg, Gen.
eral Kuropatkin has charged General
Grippenberg, former commander of
the Second army. with INSTRUMENTATION
in leaving his command without au-
thority, but the story canont be traced
to responsible source, and perhaps
represents simply new version of the
incident. While definite information
continues to be lacking, it seems to be
generally accepted that General Grip
penberg, after the recent thanking
operation, blamed the commander-in.
chief for his failure to support him,
and after a stormy scene started for
Russia to personally report to the EN-
perOr.

so as to arouse among certain mem.
bers a feeling of the greatest indigna-
ton. Mr.. Sullivan heaped upon Mr..
Hearst a TRADE of denuncation, while
the latter by implication charged Mr.
Sullivan with completely in a murder
The affair grew out of the recent
discussion of the freight rate ques

inquired of Mr.. Lamar of Florida,
who was favoring the Hearst bill, why
Mr.. Hearst did not defend his own
bill, this being followed by criticism
of Mr.. Sullivan in the New York

QUIET IN ST. PETERSBURG.
Anticipated Trouble Failed to Ma
teriaIize In Russia's Capital.

The anticipated renewal of trouble
among the workmen of st. Peters
burg, Sunday, was not realized. Meth
er strikers nor students made the
slightest attempt to demonstrate, and
throughout the day the city presented
normal appearance. The emperor's
creation Of a joint commission of mas
tiers and workmen. chosen by them
selves, to investigate the causes of
discomfort among the laborers, has
made an exceedingly good impression,
being considered definite evidence of
the governments purpose to compel
some of the masters who have paid
starvation wages to do justice to their
employees.

STRIKE is RENEWED.
Workmen In st, Petersburg Are Fight
ing for an Elght-Hour Day.


st. Petersburg is again face to face
with a renewal of the labor upheaval,
the immediate Indictment being the
failure of the worRmen to secure pay
ment for the time they were out on
strike, added to the fact that there has
been no adjustment of the demands
which led to the strike last month.
The Putlloff iron works, where the
former strike originated, is playing
the principal part. There are 10000
workmen already out within the me-
tropolis district, and workmen at the
torpedo factory in Zolpino, eighteen
miles distant have Joined the strikers.
There is a strong prospect of the
movement extending.
Only energetic measures by the
troops and the police prevented the
resumption Friday of the former tao
tics Of the strikers marching from fac
tory to factory and inducing or COM
polling employees to lay down their
tools. Thus far there has been no dis
order in St Petersburg, and the au-
thorities appear to have the situation
well in hand in this respect. 1t Is
believed that such precau-
tons have been taken as will preclude
the repetition of the bloodshed of jan
uary 22. However, circumstantial re-
ports that the revolutionary element
Is about to join with the strikers and
resort to mountaineering are causing
grave aDprehensions.
