 Orient Was Miss Roosevelt.

San Francisco, Cal, Oct 23.-The Pacific Mail Steamship company's liner Siberia, which arrived from Yo- kohama today, established a new re- cord between this city and the Japan csc port having made the trip in ten days, ten hours and twenty eight min utes. The best previous time between this port and Yokohama was made by the Korea, a sister ship of the Siberia, in ten days, eleven hours and five min utes.
 The Siberia's time is sixteen hours and twenty minutes longer than the trans-Pacific record, held by the Can adian Pacifics liner Empress of China, plying between Yokohama and Van couver, B. C., but she covered a great CT distance.
 There were many distinguished pass engers on the Siberia, among tnem be- ing Miss Alice Roosevelt, United States Senator Newlands of Nevada and wife, United States Senator War ren of Wyoming, Representative Long worth of Ohio Brigadier General H.

St. Petersburg, Oct. 28.-Count Witte, it now seems, has definitely come into imperial favor and the l shrewdest observers consider it cer- tain that he will shortly be in active direction of the government as pre- mier and head of a responsible cabi- net.
 Since his return from the United States Count Witte has boldly ranged himself on the side of the liberals and has not only advocated complete lib erty of speech of the press, and of the assembly as a cOroIlary of the coming douma, but has urged the ex- tension of the powers of the douma along lines demanded by the reforms, as well as a broader franchise, so as to admit a fuller representation from the ranks of labor and the cultured classes.
 The emperor to whom the count personally outlined his views, display ed much sympathy with them, and it is learned favored a number of min isters suggested by the count, incIud- ing General Trepoff, assistant minis ter of the interior, who now ranks as one of the most broad minded of his majesty's counselIors and who is un- derstood to be working tremendously with Witte.
 The question of appointing a cabi- net with a responsible premier, to which a faction in the ministerial ranks has been offering stubborn op- position in special conferences is next.
 likely to be decided on Wednesday
 The newly formulated statute governing the right of assembly was generally recognized as not being broad enough even before it's promul- gatiOn, and the SOlsky reform com mission is now at work on a more liberal draft.

 The sidewalks ana streets along Government street were packed with humanity and at McGiu institute, Bar ton Academy and one or two other points hundreds of children were mass ed, who sang national anthems and songs as the procession passed. Cheer after cheer rent the air. The process sion was headed by a platoon of police, followed by the militia and two com panies of artillery from Fort Morgan, and cadets of the university and the military school. Behind the young boys came the battIe-scarred veterans of Raphael Semmes and Jones NJ l |Witler's camps U. c. ". as a guard of honor to the president.
 The stand was erected on Bienville square, facing the square, which long before the president arrived was filled
 with a struggling crowd of citizens. It was brilliant with electric lights and overhead the magnificent grove of live oaks formed a canopy of green. It is estimated that by the time the presi- dent began his address, there was crowd numbering 10000 people within sound of his voice. He appeared to be overwhelmed with pleasure at the spontaneity of his welcome. His seat
 was or an elevated dais. in a chair. which was built by the students of technical school in Japan. Back of the chair was an enormous stuffed bear eight feet tall, bearing in it's mouth floral Independence bell and above it's head, a white dove holding a streamer on which was the inscription. blessed is the peacemaker." The bear was
 killed in a hunting expedition by Elm peror Alexander IT, of Russia in 1857, according to the inscription of a bronze plate on the base of the mounting.
 Oliver J. Semmes, son of the confed- crate Admiral Raphael Semmes, pre- sented to the president and pinned up

The Rays of Rising Sun Arc Gliding inc
 Russian Empire
The Chief Peace PenpOfentiry Who Has AraYed Himself With the Liberals is to be Made the Premier,
 if Not Yet Appointed.

The reception of Countess Witte by the empress today is considered a sin guIar evidence of the emperor's deter imitation to cOnfide his fortunes to the hands of Count Witte. No other in depreciation is placed upon it in court circles. where the reception of the countess created a tremendous sensa- ton. The countess is a Jewess of or : dinary birth and had never before been received at court. When M. Witte was appointed minister in the nineties the emperor was reported to have said to him: Remember you are not mar ried." The fixing of his wife's social status, which has been one of Count Witte's ambitions. must rank as one of the trium9ns of his life.
 The decrease of the influences of the grand dukes perhaps made it easier for his majesty to turn to Count Witte. The resignation of Grand Duke Vlad- mir, the emperor's uncle, as command CT in chief of the military district of St. Petersburg, however, has not yet been accepted In rendering his Tesig nation, the grand duke wrote to the emperor substantially as follows: 'I have served your grandfather, your father and yourself; but now that your majesty has disgraced my son, I no longer have the heart to serve yOu.'
 The emperor is said to favor even depriving Grand Duke Cyril of the title of grand duke, saying that he should be known simply as Monsieur RO- manOff.

The Last Struggle of the Former
 Repre- entative.

4 STRIKE IMMINENT
The Fall River Textile Situation Is
 Critical.

Fall River, Mass, Oct. 23.-The tex tile situation here was more critical tonight than it has been any time since the great strike last January. The Manufacturers association, rep resenting all the print cloth mills in the city with the exception of those controlled by M. C. D. Borden, of New York, held a meeting this afternoon and voted to refuse the request of the textile council for a direct restoration of the wage schedule, which prevailed previous to the F 1-2 per cent reduc- tion of July 25, 1904.
 The action of the association will be considered at a special meeting of the textile council tomorrow night, when 1t is probable the entire matter will be referred to a special meeting on Wednesday evening for all unions rep resented in the council.
 Many of the business men fear that a strike will be decided on by the un- ions but at this time it is impossible to indicate what action the operatives will take

St. Petersburg, Oct. 23.-The rail road strike situation has now entered on a highly serious phase The move ment is spreading rapidly to all the railroads of the empire, and apparent ly can not be stopped, while in many cities it is communicating itself to the mill and the factory employees. The general strike in all branches of labor which the socialists planned for the end of this year is suddenly bursting forth of it's own volition.
 Minister of Finance Kokovsoff yes terday received a telegram from the governing committee of the Moscow BOurse, which said that a continual tion of the strike for a week longer would force every factory in the Mos COW region to shut down owing to the lack of coal, whether or not the fac tory hands took part in the strike. The same condition of paralysis threatens all the trade and industry of Russia unless the strike is speedily settled. The inhabitants of Moscow are already feeling the effects of the strike in the increased prices of food, and they are even confronted by famine.
 As the demands of the men are purely political, it seems impossible to satisfy them by economic concessions. Prince Hilkoff, minister of railroads, yesterday strongly appealed to the Moscow strikers on the basis of his own experiences in England and the United States, but he spoke to deaf ears. The men talked of nothing but their political rights, which, of course the prince was powerless to grant The situation is apparently at a dead lock, from which egress can only be had by the surrender of one side or perhaps the proclamation of martial law on the railroads.

 At late hour today Cunliffe hand ed to H. w. Bearce, of Philadelphia, general superintendent of the Pinker- ton agency, a letter denying published reports of ill-treatment, and stating that his treatment had been kind be- yOnd his expectations. Several mem bers of Cunliffe's family, who were present during the long examination Thursday night, corroborated his statement, and Mir Bearce said that a number of papers that had printed the stories of cruelty would be called upon to retract.

Mexico City, Oct. 23.-There is a good prospect of gold money entering soon into general circulation, the eX- change commission having ordered the mint to put into circulation the newly coined five and ten pesos pieces by eX- changing them for the old gold coins. These newer coins are struck under the monetary reform plan.
 Probably early next year the new gold coin will be issued in exchange for silver. This will be the consumma- ton of the monetary reform which has practically established the gold stand ard here.
 It is now many years since gold was in active circulation in this country.
