NO DECISION REACHED.

Extraordinary Council Discusses Cues
ton Of Peace.
St. Petersburg, June 2-The extra
ordinary council at Tsarskoe Selo
reached no conclusion on the subject
of peace, bnt definite reports say the
emperor agreed to meet the internal
situation by the immediate proclama-
tion of a decree providing for the con-
Witte, president of the committee of
ministers, who was present, is under
stood to have assumed the leadership
of the advocates of peace and the i'm
mediate convocation of national as
sembly is anticipated as the only
means of averting the popular storm
which is threatening to break.
The war party is dying hard. It is
the unanimous opinion in diplomatic
circles that the logic of events points
to no other issue except peace, but the
diplomats also admit that the decision
rests with the emperor. But even
when all the ministers except War
Minister Sakharoff and Minister of
Marine Ayellan are solidly arrayed
against attempting to continue the
hopeless struggle the emperor has re-
fused thus far to say a word. To a
visitor his majesty is reported to have
declared that he would rather die than
sign an ignominious peace.

NESS ANTAGoNlsM.
LABOR LEADERS MAKE STATEMENT

MERCHANT TO ORDER STRIKE
AGAINST A RIVAL.

Chicago, June Implied charges
were made during the day that the
teamsters'. strike, which has caused
fearful riots here and widespread
paralysis of trade, grows partly at
least out of antagonism between two
business rivals of this city. President
Cornelius P. Shea of the Transfers
union and former President Albert
Young made the statements from
which the inference is plain as to the
alleged origin of the strike. Shea and
Young asserted explicitly that $4,000
was offered the teamsters in the pres
ence of prominent business man
identified with the present trouble If
the teamsters would bring about a
similar strike against a certain COM
petitor some time ago. The offer was
refused
Since this strike has been on has
any money been offered you?" Mr..
Shea was asked.
If they knew replied Mr.. Shea,
referring to the employers, "that the
teamsters had solicited or accepted

to tell the grand jury about it. Now.

Speaking of efforts alleged to have
been made by the coal dealers to force
the Office building managers to use
coal throughout the year instead of
substituting gas during the summer
months President Shea said:
Easy Money for Teamsters.
'sThe records of the teamsters show
that the strike benefits some $50, 600
were not paid by the teamsters' or
ganization.'
The teamsters' leader made similar
charges with reference to the street.

RUSSIAN NEWSPAPERS WARN
GOVERNMENT 4 TO GRANT DE
MANDs OF THE PEOPLE.
BUREAUCRACY BITTERLY DENOUNCED.
REPRESENTATIVE ASSEMBLY TO
DECIDE FUTURE QUESTIONS
MUST BE CONVENED.

ST. Petersburg, Jlne 2-The imme-
diate realization Of the imperial re-
forms seems the Gll1y thing which can
save the goYernme-st from the wrath
of the populaoe. The truth is now
known to the humblest people in the
capital and will soon spread through
the empire and the mutterings of the
people are certain to have an ON
inouss effect on the army at the front.
It is feared that*the TeyolutionaTies
and socialists are planning to take ad-
vantage of the governments discom-
fiture by inciting demonstrations and
a renewal of the strikes As "a pre-
cautionary measure more guard regi-
ments have been ordered back from
camp and additional Cossack rein
forcements have been brought to ST.
Petersburg. The Liberals also con
slider that the government is at last in
a corner and that the time has come
to strike. Their press no longer asks
lit threatens The Slovoe menaees
the government, boldly declaring that
if it does not give what the people
need the latter will take it.
Denounces the Bureaucracy.
The Nasha shisn even more scath-
ingly .denounces the bureaucracy, from
which, it says, there is no hope of
peace, and paints a revolving picture
OF the %othceholders amusing them
selves instead of mourning.
Even the Noyoe Vremya warns the
government that It cannot temporize
and act the coward, but must come out
openly, Immediately convene the peo-
pie and let them decide the future.
The Bourse Gazette says the recent
events mean the complete bankruptcy
of the bureaucracy. The paper de-
clares that the government is shaken
to its foundations and issues solemn
warning tossthe effect that unless a
national assembly is cenYoked and
other reforms are sincerely executed
at once it will be too late.

ment is already reported at Pavlograd,

Rockville Md dispatch of Dist
inst. to the Baltimore NI,n states that
The Mayor and Council have agreed on an
ordinance under which the Washington and
Rockville Electric Railway Company will be
allowed to extend its tracks into the town
The ordinance provides that the company
give bond for the faithful compliance with
ITS contract; that the road be extended to
the extreme western limits of the town
within two years; that the n,urin,pl, speed
OF the cars is not to exceed six miles an hour
The road formerly extended to the center of
Rockville, h"t d,i",u ont because of its
failure to comply with the conditions under
which 1t was granted right of way into the
town. This was two years ago and ncgotia-
have been III progress for the last six or
eight months.
In easy Frostburg Mayor, Council
and people seem helpless.
But for the JOURNAL not a loud word
would be said.
1t is true, Council has revoked the
company'S right to do business inside
corporate limits. but what does revoca-
ton amount to?
If any attention is given the matter at
all it is only to laugh at it and that with
contempt.
There seems to be at least one LAWYER
In Rockville, however, who knows his
towns rights. and it might pay the
Mayor and Council of Frostburg to en-
ploy him to come up here and look over
both the papers and the ground.
