sia, it is unable to force a newspaper
strike. The Novoe Vremya, Slovo and
other conservative papers expect to
appear today.
With the political strike as revo-
lutionary weapon apparently losing it's
keenness, owing to it's too frequent
use, fears are entertained that the
revolutionists may be driven to return
to their old methods and inaugurate
an era of terrorism. The government
is aware that a number of high agents
of the revolutionary organization at
Geneva recently returned to Russia,
and increased precautions are being
taken TO safeguard all in authority at
st. Petersburg and in Tsarskoe Selo.
Hunger in Moscow.
The following message from Moscow
says that 10000 men are on strike
there and that the city is already feel
ing the pinch Of hunger, that many
bakeries have been sacked and that
all business is suspended. Even the
banks are closed. The Imperial Bank,
s ter standing run until 2 o'clock
terday afternoon. shut its doors on
account OF lack OF light.
There have been a number of en-
counters and the casualties at Mos.
COW yesterday are estimated at $50.
In addition wholesale arrests have
been made Here in st. Petersburg
there is little change in the situation.
Several collisions between the work
men and troops have occurred In
which several of the former were
killed or wounded, and many agitators
were arrested at their lodgings during
the night.
Workmen Are Killed.
Eleven men were killed and eighty
wounded by volleys fired by the troops
at workmen defending the barricade
on Tverskia street in Moscow today.
The total casualties are, however, es-
timated at $50.
To Seize Railroad.
Several thousand Lithunians. who
have invaded the province of Vitebsk,
express, according to the Novoe-Vre.
mya, the intention of seizing the st.
Petersburg railway and annexing the
districts of Rieshitsa and Liutzin to
the republic of Lithunia.
Bombs Exploded.
Paris, Bee. pa dispatch to the
semi-official Temps from st. Peters
burg, says that the protector OF the
police at Moscow has been demolished
by the explosion of bombs, several
persons were killed but the project
who was at Kremlin escaped. The dis

the neighboring barricades in which
the soldiers were victorious and fifteen

creased Business Caused by
City's Growth.

There will be decided improvements
made by the Santa Fe Water and Light
Company in the very near future.
In speaking of the work to be done
by the company Manager Frank Owen
made the following statement today:
"The improvements that have been
going on in this city with the growth
that we are having has made it nee
essary that our company take some
action to materially increase the ia
cilities in the electric line. AS We
found it necessary to do a good deal
of work, and as we could easily see
ahead of us a still larger increase the
company decided to make a large
enough improvement at once to take
care of the business for some time TO
come.
To Enlarge Reservoir.
"The first work that will be done
will be to enlarge the reservoir used
for power at Talaya Hill. Work on
this will be commenced early next
month. A new dynamo will be placed
at once at the upper plant which will
more than double it's capacity. This
machinery has already been ordered
and will be in working order by the
first of March. The work will increase
the plant from a sixty XIV. plant to a
one hundred and fifty XIV. plant, and
will enable the company to keep up it's
power supply while the work on the
main plant is going on.
Increasing Capacity.
THE city plant will be increased
from one hundred and seventy-tlve
horse power to six hundred horse pow
er. The specifications for all the i'm
|proyements are now being prepared
and will be sent to the manufacturers
as soon as they are completed. The
work will be rushed and the plant will
be in shape by the fifteenth OF May

the plant, similar to the present one
and two larger one hundred and flfty
XIV. generators will be placed in the
plant. These will be connected with
the two hundred horse power boilers
made by Westinghouse. All OF the I'M
proyements will be of the very latest
type.

cent last season. This can De takel
as an indication of the improvements

HOME MISSIONARY
SOCIETY FORMED
By Catholic Clergy
of America at
Meeting
FIRST ONE EVER ORGANIZED
Archbishop Bourgade Tells
of Interesting Work Done
In Chicago.

Most Reverend Archbishop Peter
Bourgade, of this diocese, has recent
y returned from Chicago where he
with other clergy, assisted In the Or
ganization of the first Home Mis-
sionary" society for the assistance of
struggling Catholic missions and
churches in America which has ever
been established in this country. One
of the principal objects in forming
this organization, Is to assist the Cath
olic Churches Of the Southwest,
number of which are in sore straits.
An effort will be made to raise
$1,000,000 at once to aid in keeping
alive the struggling missions In out
of the way spots.
The clergymen met at the residence
Of Archbishop Qulgley, in Chicago, and
prepared articles of incorporation
which were filed in Michigan, last
week The following officers were
elected President, Rev. Francis c.
Kelley, Lapeer, Michigan; vice presl-
dents, Rev. r.. J. Roche, Nebraska.
City, Nebraska; Rev. F. J. Antwerp.
Detroit, Michigan, and A. V. D. Water
son, of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania; treas
urer, w. P. Breen, Fort Wayne, Indi-
ana secretary, Rev. Edward p Gra-
ham, Lappier Michigan.
The Work Done.
Archbishop Bourgade spoke enthus.
iastically of the work undertaken by
this organization. He said:
Whether or not this society will
succeed in its mission Is, of course,
problematical. The field to be covered
Is such large one and the needs so
great and so varied that none OF us
can predict the future of such move
ment. However, we have in New Msx-
leo, Arizona and, in fact, all over the
West and Southwest, numberless
small missions and struggling parishes
which, unless they are given assist
ance in some manner, will fall In their
work. Money Is needed at home as
we'll as in foreign lands to carry on
missionary work and combat the eviis
of daily life. This the clergy realize
and every effort will be made to raise
money for present and future needs'

SCHOOL BUILDING PLANS.
Preparation of Those Authorized by
Congress to Be Started.

The preparation of plans for the two new
school buildings the erection of which was
authorized by the last Congress, will shortly
be commenced. One of the buildings will be
constructed in the thirteenth division
Southwest Washingto on, and the other in the
fifth division, Georgetown.
Colonel Biddle has approved the recon-
mendation of Building Inspector Ashford
that Architect Arthur 3. Heaton be selected
to assist him in the preparation of plans for
the school building in Southwest Washing
ton, and that Messrs. Marsh and Peter be
Georgetown. The compensation of the arch
price for the building
The recommendation of Mr.. Ashford that
Architect Frank H. Jackson be selected to
assist in preparing plans for the new house
for the fireboat on the water front has also
been approved Mr.. Jackson will receive as
compensation per cent of the contract
price.
In explaining the reason for the difference
of compensation of the architects on the
two classes of buildings Commissioner Bid
die says:
THE reason for recommending the COM
pensation of 3 per cent for plans for house
for the fireboat is that this will be a small
contract, and that is the usual compensa-
school buildings, where a compensation of
21a per cent is recommended, the general
plan of the interior of the school buildings
is pretty well settled and with the arch-
tect 1t is simply question of giving salts
factory exterior, so that the work in pre-
pairing these plans is not great as it
would be in the case of the house for the
fireboat."

Lecture by Bishop A. M. Randolph OF

Bishop A. NJ. Randolph of southern Vlr-

the Epiphany last evening on The Chris-
tan Family" in which he said that mar
riage was a family trust, the husband ana
wife equal partners He held that most
alterations between husband and wife are
the results of disputes over property. Inc
lecture was the first in a series TO be given
on Tuesday evenings during Lent under
the auspices of the Churchman's League OF

Marriage is relation which God made,

Work of Physicians.

Much praise is said to be due to the local
physicians for the ready response they have
made in behalf of the consumptives ofWash-
ington. For q number of months six doe
tors have been in regular attendance twice
each week at the Free Dispensary for Con-
sumptives, now located at 926 F street
northwest. They have given their time
and professional experience to examine and,
so far as is possible, treat those patients
who have presented themselves.
One week ago subscriptions were asked
for looking to the establishment of san
atorium camp. plan, outlined by General
Sternb1rg. for a stock company with $4,000
capitalization, shares $lC0 each, has been
followed. With very little solicitation 50 100
have been subscribed by the doctors and
much more is to follow soon all mem
bers of the profession have the proposition
before them.
Two facts are recognized by those inter-
ested in this movement: First, that more
must be done before consumption will he
stamped out of this city; secondly, that
better provision must be made for those
who cannot for various reasons leave the
envrons of Washington; lastly that the
medical profession must stand behind a
sanatorium which is dependab bic for success
upon the interest shown by the doctors.
