One Man Killed and Many Others
GreadfulIy Injured-Brutai At
tacks on Non-Union
Workmcn.

Chicago, May 3.-The fighting yes
terday in the streets was even more
fierce and savage than that of the day
before. The strikers and their sym
pathizers attacked the non-union men
at every opportunity, assailing them
with bricks, stones, clubs. knives and
any other offensive weapon upon which
they could lay their hands. The fight
ing occurred in the heart of the busi-
ness section of the city, men being
shot down within 200 feet of the retail
store of Marshall Field & Co., and
clubDed nearly to death at the corner
OF the Auditorium hotel in plain view
of hundreds of ladies', who were COM
PEELED to run from the mob to save
their own lives.
In many instances men walking
along the streets who had no active
connection whatever with the strike
were assaulted by hoodlums, who beat
them first and later accused them OF
being strike-breakers.
a notable instance of this kind was
that of Rev. w. X. Wheeler, pastor of
the Ninth Presbyterian Church, who.
while passing the corner of Desplaines
and Adams street. on his way to the
Pennsylvania station. was attacked by
three men who knocked him down and
beat him numerically, until the timely
arrival of the police saved him from
critical injury. Mr. Wheeler managed
to hold one of his assailants until the
police could arrest him.
William Miles, a colored waiter,
while at work in lunch room at Ad-
ans and Sangamon streets. half mile
away from any former scene of rioting
during the strike, was also victim OF
the strikers fury, although he had no
connection whatever with the trouble.
He was accused of being strike

picturesque Japanese Memorial.

Fusan, Korea. May 3.-The anniver-
sary of the battle at Yalu was cele-
brated by General Kuroki's army Mon
day. with spectacular fetes. Soldiers
representing all military organizations
managed to work with remarkable eff
feet.
The valley in which the head
quarters is encamped was transformed
into park by utilizing streams, grass
plots and hill sides for the reproduc-
ton of Japanese scenery.
An altar with tablet in memory OF
the army's dead was erected on the
summit of the hill. The approach to
the altar was wide avenue through a
grove of trees studded with artificial
cherry blossoms and crossed by tri-
umphal arches. Other features of the
decoration were an equestrian statue,
representing General Kuroki. and a re-
production of the Yalu battlefield.
Shinto Buddhist services in memory of
the dead soldiers were held at the
altar with troops massed at the foot
of the hill
Race, tracks, theaters. and pro-
fusion of unique decorations were laid
out on the plain. Several hundred Of
ticers lunched at tables spread under
the trees, and amusements which fol
lowed included a procession represent
ing the Samamuri warriors and follow
ers of feudal times. Horse racing, the
atricals and wrestling completed the
days program.

FIGHTING IN WARSAW,
cossAcks FIRE INTO THE CROWD
Reion of Terror in the city-NearIy
One Hundred Persons Killed
Bombs Thown by
Workmen

warsaw, May 2-Nearly 100 per.
sons were killed or wounded in dis
turbances in various quarters of War
saw yesterday. The troops apparently
were uncomfortable and violated all
orders to act with moderation. They
fired into the crowds of demonstrators,
and workmen in retaliation resorted to
the use of firearms and bombs Many
women and children are among the
dead and dying
What approaches a reign of terror
exists, the city presents most gloomy
aspect and the temper of the entire
community augurs i'll. The presence of
numerous patrols of Cossacks, cavalry
and infantry are the osly reminder VI
lurking danger.
No untoward incident was reported
until after noon. The first disturbances
occurred between l and . p. m when
a procession of several thousand work
men carrying red flags marched along
Zelanzna street. The demonstration
was quite orderly and proceeded with
out molestation for some distance.
Suddenly several squadrons of Ut-
Ians appeared, but without interfering
with the procession. and took up po-
sition along the sidewalks while the
workmen passed through the lines.
Then a company of infantry ap-
DrOacleu from lHt 'front.' anu lIllllleul-
ately the cavalry charged into the pro-
cession, driving it With the fiat of their
swords into disorganized mass.
When the cavalry withdrew the infan-
try fired volley, whereupon the dem
onstrators turned and fled.
The infantry continued to discharge
volleys into the retreating, shrieBing
multitude.
Thirty-one persons were killed and
many wounded, and of the latter fif-
teen will die.
The shooting is described as having
been quite unprovoked. 1t has aroused
the most intense Indignation among
all classes in Warsaw. Many of those
who were killed or wounded were shot
in the back, showing that they were
running away when they were struck
Another terrible scene was enacted
at 8 p. m. at the corner of Zlota and
Sosnore streets, when worlImen fired
from behind wall at patrol, which
Immediately opened fire on the passing
crowds, killing or wounding twenty
persons.
The first bomb throwing occurred at
$50 O'Clock last night, when bomb
was thrown into a Cossack patrol near
the Vienna station.
Three Cossacks and one policeman
were killed and two women who were
leaving the station at the time were
severely wounded by the explosion of
the bomb.

Denver, April ga Republican spe-
cial from Glenwood Springs last night
says: Four bears were killed by the
Presidents party yesterday. Details
of the killing have not yet come in.
Late to-day Secretary Loeb received
telephone message from ranch mouse
two miles from camp. The message
was dictated by the President and
read to Mr.. Loeb by Elmer Chapman,
the courier. 1t said:
I'VE got four bears yesterday. We
are all WE'LL
There was more to the message
touching upon governmental affairs.
but the rumor that the President had
been i'll was proven unfounded. II has
not been determined when the party
will move to its new location about
sixteen miles from Glenwood Springs.
At the same time 1t is believed the
change proposed will result in the kill
ing of grizzlies, which variety has
been particularly scarce. Brown bears
have been found in plenty, but the
grizzly and the silver tip appear to be
too willy for the hunters.
Souvenir hunters are haunting the
shop of Frank Hayes, the local taxi
dermist who is mounting the skins
sent in by the President. He is giving
away Joints from the feet of the bears
killed. His mail is growing heavier
every day because of the prominence
given him as the mounter OF the
trophies from the Presidents hunt.

LAND OFFICES PROTEST.
Colorado Officials Object to Proposed
Consolidation.

Washington, May 2.-In response TO
a call for reasons why the land Offices
at Lamar and Del Norte should not be
consolidated with the land office at
Pueblo. Commissioner Richards of the
General Land Office to-day received
letters from the officers of both offices.
stating reasons why, in their opinion.
the proposed consolidation should not
be carried into effect.
The Del Norte officials in their letter
say that consolidation of Del Norte Will
work a great hardship on the public.
as it would compel those having busi-
ness before the land office to travel
over 300 miles and at considerable eX-
pense. 1t is the opinion of the Off
cials that the business of the Del
Norte office will be larger during the
coming fiscal year than during the
past. Business commenced to increase
during April and up to the 25th of the
month the receipts We're $1,000.
1t is expected by the local officials
that the action of the State Legisla-
ture in appropriating funds for sur
veys of reservoirs and irrigation enter
prises has already encouraged settlers
to file on government lands in this dls-
trict. 1t was pointed out that the COM
missioner's letter contained an error

months. These were S2,O63 instead OF
$2,403, as stated in the letter The
actual expenses were less than one
third of the receipts, consequently
under a strict construction Of the rule
the office was not in the class liable
to consolidation.
Officials of the Lamar land Office
write that the Lamar district contains
over 100000 acres OF unappropriated
land and that 100000 acres will be
added to this amount when cancella.
ton of entries now under way shall
be completed One reason given Tor
the recent falling off in receipts is that
the introduction of the Brooks 64O
acre homestead bill operated against
entries. Parties held OFF from making
entries and final proofs in the hope or
getting the benefit of enlarged priv
ileges contemplated by the passage o.

The officials state that the prospects
are encouraging for a considerable IN
crease in business and there Is much
greater need for the retention OF the

Ambitious Trinidad Enterprises.

Denver, May IA Trinidad dis
patch says: Eastern capital is con-
sidering project for the construction
of cog road up Fishers peak, much
on the same order as the one which
runs up Pixies peak from Manitou. A
local promoter has been in communi-
cation with the men interested in the
proposition.
1t IS said, however, that the proposed
scenic road is incidental to gasoline
line that will take in all the towns sur
rounding Trinidad. 1t is limited that
the capital necessary will come largely
from men connected with the Colorado
Fuel & Iron Company.
j. the scenic line is constructed,
steps will be taken by the promoters
to advertise Trinidad as a resort and
to bring tourists here during the sum-
mer. The Colorado & Southern Is be-
lieved to be interested, a summer re-
sort to be at Catskill being a part of
the scheme.

Texas Tornado Kills Many.

Laredo, Tex, April 30.-Sixteen peo-
pie were killed and scores injured in
Laredo and five were killed in New
Laredo by a tornado which tore
through the city late Friday night
Rumors of others killed in places out
side Laredo are heard hit as yet lack
confirmation. The property damage is
large. The damage wrought at the
Laredo seminary is severe. Not one
of the group of magnificent buildings
which go to make up that institution
escaped damage.
The barracks, the primary building
Emery hall and the chapel were dam
aged from fifty to seventy-five per
cent. The escape from death OF the
teachers at present quartered in the
institution is considered miraculous
as the walls of some of the buildings
which they occupied were completely
demolished

CHICAGO Strike Spreading.

Chicago. April 30.-A determined eff

of All Souls church; DIR. Emil G.
Hirsch of Sinai temple; Miss Jane Ad-
dams of Hull house, and DIR. Cornelia
De Bey of Neighborhood House, to
bring about an amicable settlement
of the strike was an absolute failure
and all peace negotiations for the pres.
emf at least have been declared OF.
Indications tonight are that the
strike is bound to spread to other
firms. Both sides seem determined in
the stand they have taken. All mem
bers of the Employers Association
will insist on all of their union team
sters making deliveries to the con-
Germs already involved in the strike.

FREEDOM OF RELIGION
is GRANTED BY czAR OF RUSSIA
Proclamation of Emperor Nicholas
Grants Real Liberty of Conscience
Action Affects More Than Fifty
Million Dissenters.

st. Petersburg. May 1.-2:20 a. NJ
Real religious freedom conferred upon
his subjects by Emperor Nicholas as
an Easter gift is a historic event of
the highest significance in comparison
with which the remission of millions
of dollars in taxes to the peasantry,
long list of decorations and six pages
of promotions of bureaucratic officials
are hardly worth comment.
Liberty of conscience has been re-
peatedly proclaimed, and Procurator
PobedonSstzeff, in his reply to the
evangelical petition of 1888, contended
that it existed in the empire. The fact
is that as a trysting place al religions
have been tolerated in Russia, but
none has been allowed to trespass
upon orthodox faith as enunciated from
the mosque that faces the church on
the Nevsky in st. Petersburg.
The Stundists and Molkans of
southern Russia, now the principal
non-conformists, who might be de-
scribed as the Quakers of Russia, have
made tremendous progress in recent
years in spite of prosecutions which
often have driven them eastward
and made them pioneers of Russian
colonization. There are in all about
II 900 900 of these dissidents.
Inc Emperor ACT Will hiSo ahe''
about 40O0O,000 belonging TO alien
faiths, such as the Jews, Catholics and
Lutherans of Poland and the Baltic
provinces, the Protestants of Finland
and the followers of Islam and Buddha
in the Urals. the Crimea, the eau
casus, Turkestan and Central Asia.
These figures are only approximate,
as probably millions who are nom
inally orthodox secretly profess other
religions. Whole villages of Mussul-
mans baptized into the orthodox COM
munion by a ruse petitioned in vain
70 be permitted to return to Mohamme-
danism.
While the Emperor's approval of the
action of the committee of ministers
distinctly holds to orthodox as the
state religion and creates the usual
commission to work out many details
in connection with the offspring Of
mixed marriage during minority, le-
gimitization of marriages and regtstra-
tion of deaths and births, 1t also re-
sends a number of acts aimed spe-
officially at various religions and estao-
fishes the principle of absolute free
dom of worship and the right of every
Russian who becomes of age to change
his confession of faith, in which the
assurance of religious freedom lies.
