he BREAKS DOWN.
Dougherty Confesses to Robbing the
Peoria School Fund.

Peoria, H., Nov. 19.=For the first
time since the day of his arrest New
ton c. Dougherty today practically ad-
mitted his guilt, at the same time Civ
ing an explanation of the causes that
led to his robbing the Peoria school
fund of a sum now estimated to be
more than 100000
The fact that he was interested in
too many business enterprises, that he
mixed his personal affairs with those
of the school board and that he was
allowed too much liberty in the hand
ling of the funds are given as the
prime causes for his downfall
The interview in which he told of
his defalcatiOns was given by
Dougherty in his cell at the county
jail today. AS he discussed the case
the noted educator broke down and
wept bitterly. Crushed in spirit he
still maintained that he had lived a
moral and upright life. He repeatedly
declared that he had no love for
money and that he was conscious OF
no wrong-doing.
Il was il too many enterprises. -
said DOugherty. ssI had made money
too rapidly. I was accustomed to
handle the school funds without any
oversight or supervision. never

have always subscribed literally to
every public enterprise. I have aided
in upbuilding the city and in promot-
ing enterprises that would give en-
ployment to labor.
although face to face with dis
grace, I am morally conscious that
have done no wrong. If I could have
maintained my position as president
of the Peoria National bank would
have gone to Chicago and obtained
sufficient funds.

ARMY IS WOBBLY.
Serious Mutinies Among Cars
Soldiers Imminent.
Latest Manifesto Has Had No
Good Effect.
DISTRUST OF WITTE.
Peryades the Ranks of the Rus
sian PrOletariat.
The Flight of Foreigners and
Others Continues.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 18.@The mani
festo issued yesterday has aggravated
the situation by disappointing the
hopes of millions of peasants. Reports
that Grand Duke Nicholas has been
appointed dictator have increased the
financial and industrial panic. The
banks are besieged by people who are
transferring their valuables abroad.
The flight Of foreigners and others
continues.
That the cars main support, the
peasantry. is more seriously disaffect-
ed than ever is indicated by the
agrarian riots, which are widespread
and dangerous. The belief is enter
tained by we'll informed persons that
serious mutinies of the soldiers are
imminent. The latest manifesto has no
beneficial effect, because the freed
serfs assert that the land that they
received in 1861, was coming to them
for the wages they should have Deen
paid during previous years OF Toll.
Therefore the peasants demanded at
this time the REIN bursement of the
yearly payments made on that land or
an equivalent in other land. Now the
manifesto tells them that if they will
be good the czar will sell them land
ance wished to leave the matter to
the douma for settlement. It accuses
the grand dukes and other great land
lords of framing the manifesto in their
own interests. The leaders are threat
ening to bring on a strike of peasants
that will devastate the empire.
Even opponents of autonomy for Po-
land assert the situation there does not
Justify a state of siege and that Count
Witte's action in this respect proves
that he hopes gradually to recall all
the paper liberties lately granted.
Though at last nights meeting, the
Russian, Polish and Jewish labor dele

curious. One of the old family re.
tanners is a Scotchman named Will

over the truth for the sake Of sparing
his listeners feelings. The woman in
question, although possessed of con-
siderable charm of manner, is not 9
beauty and knows it. Her husband,
recently deceased, was a remarkably
handsome man, and his wife was one
of his sincerest admirers. One day
when she was looking at her hus.

answered.:
