Struve, editor of the Osvoboidenie
Emancipation who has again shift

ticie this afternoon in which he ad-
mlts the defeat of the attempt aimed
at the overthrow of the government.
He says the attempt. of course, was
madness and was bound to be eXtin-

alleges. there was heroic spirit be-
hind 1t which should terrify the gov

Another such victory and the gov

The report that Lieutenant General

With the evident object of inhaming

jB|G BROKERS
IN CRASH
RISE IN COPPER SWAMPS
FIRM OF LEIGHTON & CO.

Boston Dec. 29.--The recent rise in
copper stocks on the Boston stock ex-
change was an important contributing
cause to the Suspension today Of the
stock brokerage firm of II. r. Leighton
& Co. which assigned for the benefit
of its creditors. Although the firm is
not member of any stock exchange
the assignment was adjudged of con-
siderable importance from the fact
that the firm has some forty branch
offices. all but three of them in New
England cities and towns The out
side offices are at Montreal, Halifax. N,
s., and St. John, N. +. The assignee
is Charles r.. Allen, a lawyer of this
city. The firm stated that the suspen-
sion was due to the failure of mem
her of the Boston stock exchange to
meet his obligation to the company
and to outstanding nvestments--in

Vice President and Freight Agent
Charged With Discrimination in
Favor Of Steel Trust.

Chicago, Dec. 29-The federal
grand Jury today returned an indct-
ment against the Chicago, Burlington
and Quincy railroad, Darius Miller,
first vice president, and G. G. Burn
ham,, foreign agent, on the charge of
granting railroad rebates.
The indictment charges that the re-
bates were all granted to the United
States Steel Products Company of
New York. a subsidiary company of
the United States Steel Company
The indictment further alleges that
by an agreement between the defend
ants and a number of connecting rail
roads a joint tariff was made and filed
with the interstate commerce com
mission. The freight rates were paid,
it is declared IN the Indictment ac-
cording TO the tariff, but afterwards
rebate of about so per cent was
allowed to the shippers. In all cases
the United States Steel Products Com
pany was the recipient of the money
according TO the Indictment
As soon as the indictment was laid
before Judge Bethea in the United
states circuit court he fixed bonds of
$4,000 In each case and the officials
of the Burlington road were notified
to call and give bail to the amount Of
$4,000, which they agreed to do
without delay.

Washington, Dec. 29.--There have
been 1880 bills introduced by this
congress but probably not more than
thirty really important bills of nation
al scope will be passed. Many of these
1920 bills are private in character
and hundred or two of them will
probably be passed without opposition.
The great majority of them have been
presented by request of some enthusl-
asst or crank and the member or sena-
tor has gone through the formality of
presenting the bin to make himself
solid with a voter. There are other
bills presented by corporations. some
of them apparently innocent, but as
insidious and dangerous as thieves in

moters that they may be put through

guard or when there is a slim attend-
ance or toward the end OF the session.

The populaee held aloof. and not Il

strike crumbled under their feet by
their challenging and precipitatlng a
conflict before the proletariat organi-
