RUSS|A'S CRISIS
REACTION MAY BE CONFRONTED
BY REVOLUTION.
DYNASTY IN DEADLY PERIL
Four Hundred Thousand cossaeks to
Crush Out Freedom-Absoiute An
arehy Prevaiis-Streets Of Riga
Flow With Blood.

st. Petersburg.-The situation Is ex-
ceedingly ominous. Public opinion is
practically unanimous that the gov
ernment has entered upon the fatal
path OF reaction and that Whites min
istry must fall. Reaction and revolu-
tion confront each other In a death
struggle. Both General Trepoff and
General Count lgnatieff. according to
the popular impression. are being held
In reserve to execute the program of
repression. 1t is again said that the
entire Cossack strength Of 100000 will
be mobilized in a supreme effort to
crush the revolutionary force.
Absolute anarchy prevails. A mes
senger who arrived here this morning
declared that the streets of Riga were
flowing with blood. After meeting
the railroad men were moved down by
the fire Of machine guns and artillery.
The railroad men of st. Petersburg,
at a meeting yesterday evening. re-
solved that inasmuch '.as the reaction
Is gaining force, the government Is
seeking to retract what was won by
the frs; Pan-Russlan strike" The
railroad men stand ready to obey the
signal for a general strike. but advise
their fellow-workcrs to await the word
from the central committee Mt MOSCOW,

simultaneously with the arrests
here. NJ. Dronsnilny and all the mem
bers OF the union OF the employees OF
the posts and telegraph operators of
Moscow. with N. kokhanowsh at their
head. were arrested at Moscow.
Certainly the appearance Of st.
Petersburg and the events to-day seem
to paint n black picture Of the future.
The capital resembles great military
camp. The patrols everywhere were
doubled. Grim looking cannon rum
bled through the streets. What hap
pened smacked strangely OF the old
regime.
A large workmen's meeting was dis
persed by Cossacks. The building In
which the executive committee Of the
League o; Leagues meets was sur
rounded by troops. and no one was
permitted to enter 1t. At the same time
vast meeting of "Loyalists" was
freely permitted. ut which speeches
were made extolling the Emperor and
the government. 10 cap the climax.

WALSH ON SUGAR TARIFF.
Would Protect Colorado Beet Sugar
Producers.

Washington.-In a lengthy interview
in the Washington Post. Thomas F.
Walsh enters "a protest against . re-
duction OF the duty on sugar imported
from the Philippines. stating that such
reduction would ruin an established
industry OF Colorado. Among other
things Mr.. Walsh said:
THE arid section OF Colorado has
been found adapted to the culture OF
sugar beets. With the application OF
water to this land under the national
irrigation act. one OF the greatest acts
of craftsmanship accomplished under
our broad.minded and shr-sighted Pres
ident. the people OF Colorado will fur
nish an outlet for n great population.
and the cultivation OF beets for sugar
will enable thousands OF American citi-
zens TO establish homes Of their own.
That is what is now being done In Col
orado and the industry is In It's in
fancy. People have gone In there Mt

planted beets provided to them by the
Agricultural Department, and started
a great industry.
"There was an implied. n not an ey-
pressed, promise that they were to be
protected in this new industry. Yet
II II now proposed to place them in
competition with the poems Of the Phil
ippines. at the most critical time In the
history of the industry.
IF the beet sugar industry is pro
tected against this danger II will soon
be able to furnish cheap sugar to the
people Of this country. making home
market for home labor and consequent
prosperity for all. There cannot be n
trust in sugar IL the beet sugar indus
try is permitted to grow, as It will
with irrigation OF the western arid
lands. II will become as standard as
the growth of wheat or cotton. and no

RYAN TES7IFIES1
OWNER OF EQUITABLE STOCK be.
FORE THE COMMITTEE.
HARTMAN MADE THREATS
Senator Dryden Tells Of Contributions
to Republican Campaign Fund
Five Thousand Dollars Paid to Leg
islative Agent.

New York.--Thomas +. Ryan ap-
peared before the insurance investigat-
ing committee Monday and told what
Il. II. Hartman did and threatened to
do when he demanded that Mr.. Ryan
concede him a share In the control OF
the Equitable Life Assurance Society
last June. Mr.. Ryan assured the COM
mittee that he had meant no disrespect
by his former refusal 10 disclose their
conversations, and said that he had
determined to answer the questions to
which he had refused replies Friday
last because District Attorney Jerome
said he ought to do so.
Mr.. Ryan's version of what Mr.. Har-
riman demanded and what he threat
ened to do upon the refusal Of his de-
mands was in substance rs follows:
That Hartman demanded one-half OF
the 502 shares of the stock of the
Equitable Life Assurance Society
which Mr.. Ryan had purchased from
James II. Hyde and which gage Mr..
Ryan control of the property. That
Hartman threatened. unless he was
conceded this share in the control Of
the society. to exert his political and
all other influences against Mr.. Ryan
and his project. That Hartman de-
clared there probably would be legis-
lative action and that In that event his
influence would be important. That
Hartman demanded the right to name
two of five trustees to vote the con-
trolling stock in the election Of direc-
tors OF the society.
United States Senator John +. Dry
den OF New Jersey. president OF the
Prudential Life Insurance Company OF
America, was on the witness stand all
the remainder of the day. He testified
that his company paid $4,000 to the
Republican national campaign fund In
1896. 1900 and 1904. 1t also paid $1,000
to Andrew Hamilton. formerly the
New York LIES agent at Albany.
