ENGLISH ACCUSED
or lNCITING RIOTS
Placards Posted Laying Blame
On Great Britain.
ENeLIsHMAN HURT BY cossAcks

Serious Complications Taken Place
In Regard to Russian Treubles-Re-
Iations Somewhat Strained Between
the Two Powers.
St. Petersburg, Jan. 30-The posting
Of placards at Libau, signed by the
governor of Courland, OF a similar
purport to those posted at Moscow
charging Great Britain with response
bility for the disturbance in Russia,
has called out another vigorous pro-
test from the British ambassador, Sir
Charles Hardinge, who has pointed out
to Foreign Minister Lamsdorff that
such proceedings must make a deplor-
able impression in Great Britain and
cannot fail to seriously affect the
friendly relations of the two coun-
tries.
The British military attache here,
Major Napier, has been dispatched to
Warsaw to inquire into the attack on
Consul General Murray and the vice
consul there.
New complications between Great
Britain and Russia are feared on ac-
count of the attack on the British
consul and vice consul at Warsaw
Saturday night.
Coming on the heels of the placards
posted by Assistant Police Chief Rou-
dneff, accused the British of assisting
the Revolutionists of Russia, the War
saw incident may be the source of an
other outburst in Great Britain which
may again strain relations between the
| two countries. Beyond the fact from
| the attack at Warsaw, resulting in
the wounding of the British vice con-
sui, who is now in a hospital, tn
British embassy here has no details
of the affair, but Sir Charles Har
dinge, the British ambassador, has al
ready delivered note to Foreign
| Minister Lamsdorff, asking for an i'm
mediate investigation and explanation,
reserving any claims which may be
hereafter made and at the same time
asking for protection of British con
suls throughout the empire. By
| the first train he also dispatched Ma
| jOr Napier the British military at
tache, to Warsaw, to secure a full re-
port on the circumstances. Count
| LamsdOrff replied to Ambassador Har-
dinge's second note on the subject of
| the Moscow placards by saying that
| instructions had been sent to remove
all all traces of the placards from the
streets. It is now learned, however,
| that similar notices had been posted
at Libau and Reval which led to a
renewal Of representations on the
score In this connection the appear
ance of the proclamation of the Holy
Synod instructing the Orthodox priests
| to inform their parishioners that the
strike and revolutionary movements
as promoted by the external as well
as internal enemies of Russia, with
| the object of embarrassing the mill
tary and naval plans, has created
| somewhat of furry among foreigners
here, especially the British, who be-
lieve that the object is to incite hos
! tility. No further action has been
taken by Ambassador Hardinge or the
other foreign representatives.
| Private advices from Warsaw say
the authorities there have already TAX
en- over the charge of the waterworks,
electric light and gas plants, and that
serious trouble is anticipated

A New Trial Denied

New Orleans, Jan. 30.-The state
supreme court today denied a new
trial in the cases of Lewis w. Lyons
who murdered District Attorney J.
Ward Gurley, and Sam Aspara, who
murdered Antonio Luciano. The
former tragedy grew out of a civil
case, which the district attorney han
died for Lyons. The latter claimed
to have been defrauded. His de
fense was that of insanity. The mur-
der of Luciano was said to be the out
growth of a Malta plot. The tragedy
followed q series of shooting affraye

Washington, Jan. 30-The president
sent a message to congress today call
ing attention to the fact that no sta
tistics on marriage and divorce had
been collected since 1886, and recon-
mended legislation.
The following is the text of the mes
sage:
ITO the senate and and house of rep
resentatives: | call the attention of
congress to the fact that no statistics
have been collected by the federal
government on the subject of marriage
and divorce since 1886, and that but
few of the states have provided for
these statistics. The institution of
marriage is, of course, at the very
foundation of our social organization,
and all influences that affect that insti-
tuition are Of vital concern to the peo-
pie of the whole country. There is
widespread conviction that the di-
vorce laws are dangerously lax and in
differently administered in some of the
states, resulting in a diminishing re-
gard for the sanctity of the marriage
relation.
THE hope is entertained that coop.
Grafton amongst the several states can
be sucred to the end that there may
be enacted, upon the subject of mar
riage and divorce. l deem the matter
Of sufficient general Importance to rec.
ommend that the director of the cen.
sus be authorized by appropriate leg
islation to collect and publish stats.
tics pertaining to that subject secur
ing the statistics from 1886 to the

Mocklng Bird Attends Church.


An English mocking bird wandered
into Hagerstown, Nd, and had quite
time. It attacked first an apple In
the street in front Of fruit store on
West Franklin street, and when some
sparrows interfered knocked them
right and left. They formed chat
tering ring and speculated on the new
champion. The bird then flew off and
entered Christ Reformed church by
the bay window. Rev. Charles Shaffer
OF Thurmont was reading his text,
when the bird lit on the edge of the
bible. He gently waved it of and it
| flew down to the edge of the pulpit
| and came back and stood on the text.
The reverend gentleman read, though,
and the bird few to the top Of the
organ and sat awhile, and then came
back and perched right over the
preacher until he was through his SER
mon. It seemed very attentive. When
the organ opened it few to that and
enjoyed the music and, finally, after
| comprehensive fight over the con-
| gregation, turned to the chandelier.
There it was when the congregation
went out. Mr.. Spielman went to the
church this morning and easily cap
: tured it.

Queer Proofs of Love,

Nine. Myriam Harry, the Partisan
novelist who has travelled about the
world good deal, tells what evil
dences of affection are priced by men
and women in different countries. In
Jerusalem she once met young Arab
woman who had not tooth left in
her head. Nine. Harry's native SER
want said: Lucky woman; her hus-
band knocked all her teeth out. He
does love her." In Cochin China
Nine Harry was told that there a
husband was not believed to love his
wife properly until he had made a
present to her of coffin. In Galicia,
among the sect of masochists, a man
values his wifes affection by the de-
grees of suffering which she causes
him to endure. Nine. Harry there
once heard betrothed youth say to
his afianced bride: IF you really
loved me you would consent to bind
me and fog me with this whip" AT
Stockholm one Of Nine. Harry's
friends is now suing her husband for
divorce on the ground that The does
not love her soulfully."
