REVOLT IN RUSSIA.
WARSAW AND LODI UNDER RULE
OF "RED TERROR"
Bloody Riots in the Streets of Two
Cities-Ten Regiments of Troops Bat
tie with Sixty Thousand Strikers
Many Women and Children Shot.

Russia again seems at the beginning
of a revolution. Poland is afame with
excitement and the worklnguen in ali
South Russia are in a ferment. The
Cars government is in as great dan
ger at home as is his army in Man
churia The Jews and the Gentle
peasants are making common cause
against the government. The story of
the LODI massacre is filed with &c
tails Of unspeakable cruelty manifest
ed by the Cossacks. Old and young,
men, women and children were shot
down like dogs.
The present trouble began Tuesday
after the funeral of the victims of the
conflict between troops and terrorists
the previous Sunday. The Christians
were permitted to bury their dead, but
the Jews were prohibited from doing
so, and the police secretly inferred the
bodies of the Jews at night, which ex-
cited Indignation and terrorists riots
were initiated Thursday.
The most serious phase of the riot
ing developed when the crowd delib-
erately pillaged liquor shops, and num-
bers of persons, intamed by drink, led
a crowd Of at least $4,000 to further
and more serious attacks. Police and
military were attacked wherever they
appeared in small force and many in
dividual members were killed. Much
of this disorder took place Oh Piotro-
kow street, one of the principal thor
oughfares Of the city.
After pillaging the liquor shops the
crowd set fire to them and prevented
the firemen from eXtinguishing the
flames. This was repeated deliberately
at many places. The fury of the mob
was given full vent, and even children,
caught by the contagion, were seen
kissing red flags and heard swearing
that they were ready to die for liberty.
A Jewish girl mounted box in the
market square and addressed an i'm
mense crowd. Suddenly the police ap-
peared, fired a volley, and the girl fell
dead.

WILL HAVE A SUMNER CAPITAL.
Philippines to Be Given Counterpart
of India's Official Resort.


The United States is to lay out sum
mer capital in the mountains, about loO
miles from Manila similar to Simla, the
summer capital of India, to which the
latter government is removed en- masse
ON April / of every year, and remains
until Nov. 1. Thus the government of
India has duplicate set of public Off
ces, one in Calcutta and one i'll Slmla.
The books and records are moved back
and forth every year, and the officials
and their clerks; and messengers make an
annual migration. Most of them are
thus required to keep up establishments
in both cities.
This has been found to be absolutely
necessary to the health of the corps of
officials and their families. 1t is imp0s-
sible for white men to survive the SUM
her climate of Calcutta, while in the
winter Simla is buried under snow. The
climate of Manila during the rainy sea-
son is similar to that of Calcutta, and
lis exceedingly trying. Few people can
live there for two years in succession
without suffering for it the rest of their
lives, and the strongest of constitutions
will break down ultimately. At present
the only recourse is to run up to Japan
to escape the heat and the humidity of
the summer, but that is too expensive Il
trip for men of ordinary incomes. and
the government cannot afford to give
its employees the long leaves Of absence
that are necessary to make the journey.

atmosphere as pure as that of Colorado

this it will be necessary to construct q
number of buildings for official puirposes

BIG CATTLE SHIPMENTS.
Long Trains of Palace Stock Cars Rush

ing SOutH 10 1NOTLue
Not even the worlds fair nor conven-
ton excursion trains take precedence
over the long strings of palace stock
cars rushing from south to north this
month, that the largest shipment of
Texas cattle in the history of the West
may be deposited on the range country
west of the Missouri river. Within 30
days 100 such trains will have passed
through Sioux City, and from 10000 to
100000 southern cattle will be partak
ing of the most luxuriant range grasses
which many years have produced. Next
year at this time these same cattle will
be sent to the markets of the world. This
stupendous movement of cattle means so
much to the railroads both now aud later
that they are sidetracking their fast ex-
press trains that the cattle may speedily
reach their destination.
1t has taken the cattlemen of the
North long years to solve the riddle of
the Texas steer but the decision that
the calves should have a year or two of
wild, rugged life in the South before they
were transplanted to the northern ranges
was the solution. The southern range
man is. prospecting by this new develop
ment of the cattle industry. He was for

WRECKED BY DESIfN.
FAST TRAIN DISASTER WORN OF
A MiSCREANT.
Officials Declare a Maniac or PIbt Is
to Blame for Catastrophe at Mentor
Twenty Hour Schedule Will BE
Resumed.

AS a result of the wrecking of the
twentieth century limited train at
Mentor, Ohio, in which nineteen per-
sons lost their lives, the railroad com
pany will abandon it's eighteen-h0ur
schedule between New York and Chi
cago. The old schedule of twenty
hours for the run will be resumed.
Another development is the charge
that the wreck was caused through
plot or by some man who had a grudge
against the railway Or some one aboard
the flyer and deliberately threw the
switch at Mentor
Declarations that the wreck of the
twentieth century limited train at
Mentor, Ohio, was the result of q de-
liberate plot were made by officials of
the railway. The switch was found
open by Conductor Alexander Camp
bell Of the flyer Immediately after the
wreck, and investigation showed that
it had been locked open. What the
motives were that induced the persons
charged with Wrecking the train to
throw open the switch are not limited
at by the railroad officials.
AS the Lake Shore officials investi-
gate the cause of the wreck and get
the situation in hand the conclusion is
fixed more and more firmly that the
sacrifice of lives was the work or
man who deliberately and malicIously
threw the fatal switch for the purpose
1Cff n
road company has set i'll motion all
the machinery Of its powerful police
organization to ferret out the man who
is believed to have committed the muir
deOus act.
While the abandonment, at least for
the present, of the eighteen-hour sched-
ule is announced, observing people
realize that what happened to the fly
err" might have happened to one of the
so-called slow trains, and the result
in the latter case, perhaps, would have
been more disastrous than in the for
mer because of the lighter equipment
of the slow train. 1t is to be borne i'll
mind that the flyer was wrecked not
because it was going at high speed
but because a switch had been left
open.
So far as speed is concerned, the
results of wreck are not much affect
ed by a difference of few miles per
hour. The dangers of railroad travel
are little affected by the scheduled
speed of trains. There is certain ele-
ment Of peril that cannot be eliminated
entirely, but that peril applies to the
slowest as well as to the fastest tralnsy 4

in front of these barricades and the
cavalry was unable to charge. Mean
while the mob had secured arms and
they were freely used.
The military finally secured the
upper hand, but not without consider
able losses to themselves and fearful
slaughter to the rioters. The soldiers
exhibited the utmost carelessness as to
whether they killed peaceful persons
or rioters, and as consequence many
women and children were among the
dead.

est. In the first place it was neces-
sary to erect large number of cot
tages for the miners and other en-
ployes on the company's property and
to establish stores where they might
purchase all needed supplies without
going away from home and being
compelled to run the risk of paying
exorbitant prices. As the result of
this outlay the village of "Hcathton".
named in honor OF the eompany's pres

A line OF railway chartered as the

has been built into the camp from

the coal properties they had acquired
in the vicinity of Chandler, known to
be among the best in the Arkansas
valley. They began operations with
an indebtedness OF $4,000, but were
not alarmed on that account as they
realized that there was an omnivor
Gus demand for their product in the
markets of Colorado. Kansas and
Nebraska, and that they could soon
meet their obligations. Unlike many
companies they did not attempt to
gut" the mine with view of show
ing immediate dividends, but pro-
cccded 10 develop it in a systematic
manner conserving much OF its wealth
for future exploitation. Had an un-
due stimulus been given to produc-
tion in the beginning larger dividends
could have been paid but to have
done so would have irrcparably dam
aged the property.
All the work done at the mine has
been of the most substantial charac-
ter, the object of the management,
apparently, being rermanency rather
than cheapness. The officers of the
company have proceeded on the the
ory that coal mine is a thing of a
hundred years, instead of transitori-
ness and that to wreck il by careless
methods would be unwisc and dishon-
