HE CENTRIPETAL FORCE
Otherwise Russia, Made up of Varied Peoples, Would Fly Into Pieces-The Fate of AEstria-Hungary Eade an Object Lesson.

St. Petersburg. March 1-CCorres- pondence Of the Associated Press )- Much has been said and written to show the advisabilfty and even neces- sity of changing the form of govern ment of the Russian state from an ao- solute monarchy to some form of con stitutiOnalism, but there is strong party within the empire which be- lieveS that the only salvation for Rus sia rests in the retention, for the pres ent at least of the existing form of government. One of the ablest advo- cates of~this view is Vladimir Gring- muth, editor and publisher of the Mos COW ViedomOsd, the leading conserva- . tive organ, from whom the Associated Press has secured the following article. setting forth one phase of the argu- ment against sweeping changes. MT. Gringmuth takes the view that to hold together the vast empire absolutfsm and autocracy are imperatively nec- essary that under the influence of con stitutionalism and a parliamentary form of government the centrifugal forces would prove too strong to be resisted by the present bonds which unite the Russian peoples to their em- peror. He says:
 "A full and accurate answer~to the question, why autOcracy is indispensa- ble to Russia, would fill a volume, so many are the reasons which could be given to prove that Russia cannot exist without the autocratic bower of it's emperors. Among these are forces of historical, geographical. ethnological. religious, ethical and psychological na- ture, the latter of which could herdly he presented in clear and convinc- ing fashion to those who have not studied Russia closely at first hand and familiarized themselves with the spir- i'ual and intellectual qualities Of the Russian people. For these reasons I shall not attempt to discuss the latter causes within the limits of this sketch. the readers of which, unacquainted with Russia might easily take the deep convictions of a Russian for idle talk, inconsistent with reality.

About o'clock last evening two spans of the Phoenix & Eastern rail road bridge over Salt~siver at Tempe, tOppled over in the river, thus putting another Phoenix railroad temporarily out of business. It was a fortunate thins that it did-not occur a quarter of an hour sooner, for about that time the evening train, Phoenix bound crossed the bridge.
 The first news of the incident was made known by a man working near the Hayden mill at Tempe and within sight of the bridge. He heard a crash and looking up saw in the dim twi- light that the north end of the bridge had been taken away. As he had not taken special note of just when the last train crossed it, and remembering that he had heard a train q few minutes before, he jumped to the conclusion that the train had gone into the torrent with the e>bridge and immediately arouS- ed the people of Tempe. The conclu- sion seemed Q very probable one, but az the break was on the north side and there was a long distance between it and the south bank no one cared to venture Very far out on the bridge. fearing that the rest of the structure, might so also.

Russia, then no longer able to resist the menacing yellow invasion, which would sweep over it's remnants to fall upon Europe with all it's destructive force.
 This in a.few words is one Of the chief reasons why Russia needs auIoc- racy, under which, as has been shown by the history of ages, Russia has been able to fulfill with such success her great task Parliamentarism, on the other hand, would destroy Russia's in tegrity, and with it Russia herself I repeat once more that I have here touched upon but one of the principal reasons why autocracy is necessary to Russia, that very external reason which can be most easily understood by for eigners unacquainted with Russia Other reasons of a more domestic character would demand, as I said above, too detailed and complicated ex- plantations"

Sixty Employees of a Mas
 SaChuS6tts Shoe Factory
A BAD BOILER EXPLOSION
Followed by Swift DeVouring Flames. The Number of Dead Will Never Be hnOwn-hOst of the Bodies Tangled Beyond Recognition.

Brockton' Mass, March 21.-At least sixty persons were killed early today by the explosion of a boiler in a large shoe manufactory in the CampteIo dis trict conducted by the R. B. Grover company. The explosion was imme- diately followed by a flash of flame which consumed the factory, a four story structure, as if it were a house of cards and incinerated an unknown number of men and women who were unable to eXtricate themselves from the mass of tangled wreckage formed by the terrific upheaval in the boiler room.
 More than fifty of the employees in the building were maimed, burned and bruised by the time they reached safe ground. Some had jumped from the roof, soma from the windows, and others Ead been injured in the mad rush to escaoe from the doomed fac tory, which from all parts emitted the heat of an inferno driving back the re scuers. The fire extended from the factory to seven other buildings in the vicinity. The total financial loss is estimated at quarter of Q million, four-fifths of which was the Grover Company's.
 It mac- never be known just how many persons perished in the wreck age. No one knows how many per sons were in the factory. It is estimat- cd that there were 400 but one of the officials of the factory stated tonight that there Were not so many.
 Two hundred and fifty survivors have been accounted for At midnight fifty bodies had been recovered from the ruins and the search is being continued all night. Fragments of human bodies which possibly belong to others than those enumerated have also been found
 Few of the remains have been iden- tifed, the head in nearly every cir cumsJance being missing and except in rare cases 1t was impossible to dis tinguish the sex of the dead. Chief of Police BOyden late tonight express ed the opinion that some of the em- plOyes had not reached the factory at the time of the explosion, and that undoubtedly many of the injured went to their homes without reporting their injuries.
 The disaster was attended by Aar- towing scenes and thrilling rescues. There is no trace of Engineer Rock well who has not been seen since the explosion. It is supposed that he per ished. An inspection of the wrecked boiler shows that there was a suffi- cient supply of water and the cause of the explosion is unknown.

LONDON PUZZLED.
By Linevitch's Statement of Reviewing
 New Troops.

London, March 21.-General Line vitch's report to the emperor that he had inspected the newly arrived troops caused mucl, speculation in London as indicating that the commander in chief of the Russian army either has gone much farther north than had been sup posed or that Russian endorsements are stiu being sent south from liar bin.
 The latter is considered hardly pos sible in view Of the fact that the Rus sians are trying to effect the spediest possible retirement to Harbin.
 It is clear that q rigorous censorship is being enforced by both the Russian and Japanese sides.
 The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Morning Post declares that Russia is subbOrnly prolonging the useless struggle to drag in foreign intervention in the hope that settlement may re- suit more favorable than would be possible in direct negotiation with Ja- pan.

demonstrates for the millionth time that things happen which seem impos- sible On the third span of the bridge stood a barrel of water, for use in the case of fire When the crash came and the rails were pulled off in that vicinity, this barrel of water was knocked off the track level and lodged on the bridge braces some feet below right side up and without spilling the water. It shows also how hard it is to get rid of water in this country when there is too much of it.
 The injured bridge was steel struc- ture and great care was taken and much money spent to construct it so it would be immune to floods./The ma sorry of the piers was sunk very deep and only the best material was used but scientific engineering still has to take its hat off to the elements in Arizona once in a while. The bridge is said to have cost approximately St2O9 therefore the damage might be approximately estimated at forty or fifty thousand dollars.
 As soon as the news was received in Phoenix General Agent L. H. Landis went tc the river on q special accom- panied by telegraph operator and one or two others. A telegraph instrument was aNached to 2 wire on the north side of the bridge ard the situation as Mir. Landis found ii was reported di- rectly to the general offices in Pres colt
 Mir. Land,s said last night that all the bridge crews available will be put to work today on both sides of the ri- yer. There is an engine at the Flor ence end Of the line that will bring the r. 6s F. bridge crew over at once so there will be a locomotive available when needed on either end of the break.
 The mail for Florence will for the preSent be transferred from the M. G F. to the T. & F. at Mesa City/
 The river fell two feet between 10 and r o'clock last night so it is hoped the bridge men can go to work prompt ly today. How long it will take to re- pair the damage it is too early yet to predict
