VESSELS INSIDE THE HAReoR.
Japanese Personally Observe Russians
at kamranh Bay.


Toxic, April 24.-The navy depart
ment has issued the following state
ment of indisputable witnesses who
personally observed and reported as
follows about the Russian Second Pa
cifc squadron in kamranh bay:
1.-TWO cruisers, one with three masts
and two tunnels, OF the Dmitri Don
skoi class, and the other with two
masts and three tunnels, were seen
cruising outside of the harbor. Two
four-masted merchantmen and one
funnel steamer were anchored out
side the northern entrance of the har
bor
Five vessels resembling battlaships
were anchored inside the harhor.
1.-TWO battleships with two masts
and three tunnels, flying admiral
flags, were anchored inside the har-
Dor.
six warships, anchored in single
formation, lay outside the harDor, of
its southern entrance.
Heavy smoke was seen rising In
side the harbor."
Although the report does not say so
1T is believed that Rear Admiral Ro-
jestyensky is using the harbor to
clean his ships, to coal, adjust his
torpedoes, clean his guns, prepare am
munition and receive fresh stores.

FANATIC LIES ON THE CROSS
crucifi&ion as Means OF SeIf-Torture
Among Penitentes.

Trinidad, Colo, April 24.-On the
cross, just as the Saviour died cen
turies ago, a fanatical member OF the
Penitentes is reported to nave died
Friday at Torres, Las Animas county,
Colo. Several Trinided people claim
to have been among the eyewitnesses,
but they agreed among themselves not
to talk for publication, SO the details
are not yet known. According to the
report current here, however, the vic
tim was nailed to cross of his own
formation and died in agony that he
did not seem to feel, wrought as he
was to a delirium OF religious fervor
The story of the crucifixion is
vouched for by Henry ID. Robinson,
an automobile agent of this city, who
saw a crowd of Mexicans who had
been eyewitnesses and were discuss
ing the tragic scene In the old days,
SO 1t is said, the carrying out of an
actual crucifixion was not uncommon
among the Penitentes, but 1t was sup
posed to have been abandoned long
ago, although 1t is known that the
practice of self-torture is still carried
out among the members of the order
during Holy week.

LOSS OF eleven AND CNE-HhLF
CENTS IN PRICE OF MAY
WHEAT OPTION.
.2l0 SCENES WITNESSED IN THE PIT
CRIES OF THE EXCITED BROKERS
PLAINLY AUDIBLE IN THE
STREETS BELOW.

Chicago, April 24.-May wheat came
down with a crash during the day,
touching 9Sia cents. Less than six
weeks ago the price for the option
! was s1.2i1a OF this sensational de
cline of % cents the net loss of the
day was 11R cents bushel. The
market reacted somewhat at the close,
final quotations being at 81 even.
1t was evident from the opening Of
business that brokers for John w.
Gates, the reputed leader of a coterie
that was supposed to be engaged in an
attempt to corner the May option, had
Withdrawn support from the market.
The days developments indicated that
not only were Gates and friends fail
ing to support the market, but that
they were actively engaged in dis
posing of their holdings.
The scenes in the wheat pit were
among the widest ever witnessed
there, although the trading was not
heavy. The gallery was full of spec
tators, while the floor OF the board
was crowded with traders and brokers.
The din of the pit could be heard
plainly in the boulevard below, max
ing wholly inaudible the clatter of
horses hoofs on the asphalt. The
crowd in the pit surged and pushed
as the break in prices continued and
members on the wrong side, in efforts
to cover losses, shouted themselves
hoarse with perspiration streaming
down their cheeks, as they yainly
sought to stop the runaway market.
Gates Not a Heavy Loser.
After the days trading was over
operators on change freely expressed
a BELIEF that Gates and friends had
got out of the May wheat deal with
little, ii any, loss to themselves as
there were numerous stories of an
agreement with Armour and other
leading traders following which May
wheat was left to it's own resources.
The report was given that Mr. Gates
had fully protected himself. Immense
purchases OF July wheat, presumably
for Armour, during the past few days
was said to furnish the basis of the
agreement. A fayorite theory is that
as May wheat was being sold hedges
in July were at the same time being
taken OFF. Another report was that
Gates and Armour representatives at
a secret meeting had made an agree
ment to liquidate May holdings and
switch into the July option, offsetting
any losses in May by greater profit
in July.
The days decline was almost con-
tinuous from start to finish. There
was slight breathing spell at $102,
the market rallying from that figure
temporarily to S1.04. The momentary
rally, however, was soon followed by
the worst slump of the day, the price
going to 9S1a shortly before the clos
ing of the days business. There was a
slight rebound in the last few minutes,
the quotation as the final gong sound
ed being ST. even a bushel.

DIES IN CROWDED CATHEDRAL
Dramatic Suicide of Marchioness Ma
ria Pallavicini.

Milan, April 24.-In the midst of a
great throng gathered in II Duomo,
the famous cathedral of Milan, Mar
chioness Maria Pallayicini, yiscount-
ess of Trent, Austria, shot and killed
herself under circumstances SO in
tensely dramatic and extraordinary as
to be absolutely unprecedented.
The suicide of the marchioness oc-
Cured at the moment of the most in
tense religious concentration in the
great cathedral, in which were gath
cred $4,000 of the devout Catholics of
Milan. The woman fired bullet into
her brain and died a few minutes
later while being taken to hospital.
Marchioness Maria Pallavicini was
renowned throughout Italy for her
great beauty. She was not yet thirty.
Domestic unhappiness following sep
aration from her husband is supposed
to have been the cause of her suicide.

CZAR CABLES ADMIRAL ROJEST.
VENSkY TO DEPART FROM
FRENCH WATERS.
INSTRUCTIONS SAID To Be EXPLICIT
SUBJECT TO ISHMENT OF HIS
OWN GOVERNMENT IF NOT
PROMPTLY OBEYED.

Paris, April 24.-The foreign office
has received advices from St. Peters
burg showing that the instructions
sent to Admiral Rojestvensky are
positive and explicit and that he must
keep outside of French waters. The
nature Of the instructions is said to
be such that Rojestvensky must OBJ
serve them by fully respecting French
neutrality or else subject himself to
punishment from his government
Therefore the officials here feel that
France has succeeded in securing the
limit of what Japan can reasonably
asl.. The government still awaits the
reply of NJ. Beau, governor general of
Indo- China, upon the exact locality of
the Russian squadron and whether it
Is within or without French waters.
His absence from his headquarters
ut Saigon may delay the governor
generals reply, his last telegram
showing that he was at a small point
south Of Hanoi, the capital of Ton
guin.
Further official advices show that
steps have been taken to prevent the
Russian protected cruiser Diana, in
termed at Saigon after the naval bat
tie of Aug. 10 from putting to sea and
Resumnp Her Active Operations.
The Diana is understood to have been
lying recently at Haifong. where her
iain lSr advanced tn
permit her to rejoin Admiral Rojest-
venskys squadron and thus add an
other powerful cruiser to his strength.
But the French authorities peremptor-
lily required the cruiser to be placed
in a condition making 1t impossible
for her to go to sea. Therefore such
parts OF her machinery as are lndls-
pensable to her moving, such as her
shaft and propeller, have been re-
moved, thus rendering the Diana in
effective. The officials here desire to
direct attention to this case as clear
ly showing the determination with
which Frances requirements are be-
ing enforced
Later it was officially confirmed
that Emperor Nicholas had personally
sent an order to Admiral Rojestyen-
sky to leave French waters. This led
to reports i'll the chamber OF deputies
that the Russian squadron had actu-
ally departed from Kamranh bay. The
departure of the squadron, however,
is considered imminent, but no Off
cial dispatches have yet announced
that koJestvensky has left kamranh
bay.

STREET RAILWAY FRANCHISE
Thomas Lowry Loses Suit at Supe-
rior, Wis.

Superior, Wis, April 24.-Thomas
Lowry's famous twelve-year extension
of street railway franchise in this
city was knocked out in a decision by
Judge Vinje in the circuit court.
The Judge holds in the case of the
state against the Duluth Street Rail-
way company that the fact that the
company which is a foreign corpora
ton, had not filed its articles with
the secretary of state at the time 1t
accepted the extension of the fran
thise makes the extension void. The
terests had a right to come in and
purchase the original franchise, which
now has about fourteen years to run
until expiration.
