Out of Russian Prisons Conn
Wretches in Sad Plight.

St. Petersburg, Nov. From all
over Russia comes news of the release
of political prisoners under the am
nesty proclamations. There were many
pitiful incidents connected with the re-
uniting of families here in st. Peters
burg. A relief commission has been
organized to furnish clothing and aid
for the poor wretches. The doors of
the bastile, Spalernia, the detention
prison on the Viborg side of the river,
was opened at o'clock this morning.
Notwithstanding the hour and the
darkness, several thousand persons
congregated about the entrance. The
authorities gave to each person re-
leased 20 cents to pay his cab fare
and turned him loose.
The news of the coming release was
comparatively unknown within the
prison walls on the previous night.

prepared for a renewal of strains at any moment. This leads to asmarked sensitiveness on various subjects in which Germany is interested.
 The emperor's action in receiving from Cardinal Kopp at Metz, the grand Cross of the Order of the Holy Sepulchre is discussed as another move of German diplomacy toward estab- fishing a German ascendancy at the Vatican at the moment France is breaking off relations with the Holy See. This action is also interpreted as a German move to displace France in the protectorate over Catholic residents in the far east.
 On the other hand, Franco German relations have been given a favorable turn by the appointment of a French mission to attend the wedding at Der lin of Crown Prince Frederick William and Duchess Cecilia of Mecklenburg- Schwerin, and there is a suggestion in certain German quarters of a possible return of Alsace-LOrraine to France.

Paris, May 2O-Reports received here through authoritative channels represent the Japanese as carrying Whether the reports are influenced by sentiment it is impossible to say but they recite a number of specific facts, supporting the view that M. Hayashi, the Japanese minister to Korea, no longer observes the position of the other ministers at Seoul. He is said to consider himself a sort of resident general or viceroy, thus taking prece- dence over his diplomatic colleagues, who are obliged to await his cOnven- fence in dealing with the court and government. The general commanding the Japanese troops is represented as seconding this assumption of prece- dence on the part of the Japanese min ister.
 Officials confirm reports from Pekin that the Japanese recently exerted a strong pressure upon the emperor of Korea, to induce him to leave the country and go to Japan with the evi- dent purpose of removing him as an obstacle to the development of the Japanese control. The emperor is said to have requested the departure of the Japanese officials who had made these representations and had taken discreet means to permit European governments to learn of the prospects of his removal. Finally, when this in- formation reached St. Petersburg, the foreign office issued a protest against the Japanese assumption of control of the affairs of Korea

Chicago, May 2O.-The strike of the teamsters. instead of being declared off, will be spread to greater propor- tions. This was decided tonight by the members of the teamsters joint council which was in session until midnight
 The council met a o'clock 10 hear the report of the negotiations that had been in progress with the employers throughout the day They agreed to all the stipulations of the employers with the exception of that which de clared that the drivers of the express companies should not be taken back This was the rock upon which the peace program was wrecked. and after several hours of debate it was decided that the teamsters union could not leave the express drivers to make a lone fight. but must stand by them It was decided to call of all the negOti- ations and prepare for further fight The sense of the meeting was ex- pressed in the following statement which was given out as defining the ! position of the teamsters; "It is due i to the public and members of the team i sters' organization that statement be issued relative to our posi- n in re- fusing to accept the proposition sub mitted by the employers association. | The employers association offered a | proposition which might have received l favorable consideration from the strik- CTS and their committee providing that it carried with it no pTovisO that would act as a detriment to any pars Of our organization.

 The wind is credited with having helped the sp~inters to the extent of a broken record in the 220 yard dash, when Captain Schick of Harvard won it in the final in 21 2-5 seconds, which

Senate Committee Gathers
 Other Information
VIEWS OF BOTH SIDES
Member of the Interstate Commerce Commission Believes That the Present Law Night Be Made to Afford Some Relief.

Washington, May 2O.-Chairman commerce commission, was heard by the senate committee on interstate commerce today. He did not favor a radical departure from the present wise and beneficial law but desired to have its effects corrected and it's weak points strengthened: Discrimination against the community on account of a smaller charge for long haul than for a shorter haul could be corrected under the present law. Regarding the dan gerous tnfiexibility in rates or of the fixed mileage rates in case proposed legislation was adopted, which seemed to be feared by railroad men, he said that notwithstanding the fluctuations in the price of cotton there had been no change in transportation rates .n ten years. Mir. Knapp cited this as an answer to the assertion made that rates must constantly change to meet changed conditions.
 Something should be done, Mir. Knapp thought, toward compelling the carriers having short line connec- : tiOns to unite in making through rates. MT. Knapp did not regard the courts as the best remedy for the unreasona- bic rates.
 Howard Elliott, president of the Northern Pacific railroad, told the committee that he agreed with the president when he said the great high ways of the country should be kept on equal terms to all and that rebates should cease. He opposed giving any government commission power to fix rates. He asserted that the present laws are sufficient to properly regu- late the railroads. Discrimination be- tween localities will always exist be- cause of geographical conditions. He advocated the cutting off of free trans portatiOn and half rate tickets to gov ernment and state officials and others Mir. Elliott was asked about the Spo- kane, Wash, situation, where higher rates are charged than to Puget Sound points and he replied that it was a very difficult case and the railroads were trying to effect an adjustment. MT. Clements of the interstate com merce commission was again heard to- day. He believed that terminal and other abuses have grown up since the passage of the EIkins law in attempts to evade that law. He had advocated O minimum rate regulation.
 William A. Hover, representing the Denver traffic bureau of the chamber ! of commerce. of Denver, wanted legis- lation giving the commission power tC fix rates, to correct what he called gross and unfair discrimination agains Denver in favor of Missouri and Pa cifc coast cities. He submitted tables of rates to prove his contention. He said five men control practically the transportation west of the Missour river.
 Russell B. Stevens of Sacramento Cal, horticulturist, criticised the Ar mour car lines. He said he represented 95 per cent of the fruit growers O California He asserted that there wa: a combination between the shipper. and the car line company which re suited in an injustice to the growers
 H. B. Browne, attorney for the Atch. ison, Topeka and Santa Fe, denied tha any official of the road had acknowl edged giving rebates.
