PEOPLES ASSEMBLY WILL
SETTLE MATTER OF WAR
Car May Summon zemsld Sober Upon
Which Is to Be Thrown Re-
sponsibility.

New York, June 1.-The Suns st.
Petersburg correspondent cables that,
despite the outlook left to the war party
by the removal of Admiral Rodiest-
vensky's feet, it remains evident that
the government finds il more difficult to
make peace than war.
A ukase already existing was with
held until it was seen how Admiral Rod
jestvensky's exploit would end, The
Car met the imperial council Tuesday,
and it is expected that the ukase will
now be issued, summoning a national
zemski sober, or peoples assembly, upon
which will be thrown the responsibility
for peace or war.
This is now hopeless course, as it
means escape for the autocracy. The
bad faith Of the government in cancel
ling or shelving all the reforms promised
after the January agitation is SO flag
rant that any national assembly, when
conyoked, Is certain to postpone the
question Of war or peace until it gets
control Of the machinery OF government
itself. 1t is equally certain that the
bureaucratic system viii not take a
subordinate position without a most
stubborn fight
Neither Of these great antagonistic
forces is greatly concerned about the
Cars military humiliations.
1t is in the circles that have hitherto
scarcely felt the weight of the war that
the effects Of the disaster to the Russian
feet are appearing. For the first time
since the war, society and the encourage
of the court are struck heavily. The de-
feats of the army carried grief mostly
to the families Of the provincial land
owners, but in the last Pacific fleet
many of the officers belonged to leading
ST. Petersburg families. The Emperor
Alexander III. was differed entirely
from the imperial naval guard, to which
nominations are made only by the Car
personally.

anese are not fighting the Russian peo-
pie, but the Russian bureaucracy which
has rejected with energy the talent Of
the nation for host of sycophants ana
time-serving courtiers. Our only conso-
lation in this bitter hour is the con.
seriousness that it Is not the people but
the government which has suffered de-
feat. Enough!"
The Syn Otetehestva and Nasha Shisn,
two constitutional papers, are equally
bitter
The Novoe Vremya, while miIder, de-
Tending the Russian nation against the
charge of rottenness, nevertheless joins
in the cry for an immediate summoning
of the people.
Delay viii be fatal" the paper says,
"All Russia's intelligence and all her
ability are needed to meet the advanc-
ing crisis
The Listok says;
sThe war has taught the lesson that
education, good government aud free
dom are always victorious over ignor-
ance, misrule and despotism.''
The Sviet remarks;
"We must not yield an inch. but
fight on, if not on the sea, then on
land. An ignominious peace would re-
duce Russia to a second class power. "

Florence Towle was wavering be-

Drew had lucrative practice while
Merritt was but slowly making his

New York, June 1.-The recent criti-
-cisms Of John d. Rockefeller, growing
out of his gift Of 100000 to the Ameri-
can Board Of Commissioners Of Foreign
Missions, are deplored in an article BY
Rev. DR.. Robert S. Macarthur, pastor
Of the Calvary Baptist church OF this
city, to be published today
Rev. DR. MacArthur's article is in
part as follows:
The recent coarse, cruel and, per.
haps, criminal criticisms OF Mr.. John
d. Rockefeller have maligned the entire
Baptist denomination. His traducers
are its defamers. Baptist pastors ought
no longer to remain silent when their
denomination il made the subject Of
such unjust criticism. As a member
of the Baptist brotherhood, / protest
against the condemnation OF our
churches by these cowardly and utterly
unjust attacks.
Il affirm that the ceIlsnres inflicted
upon the denomination and upon Mr..
Rockefeller as prominent member of
a Baptist church are unjust. have
known Mr.. Rockefeller for many years,
and my intimate personal acquaintance
with him has convinced me that he is
worthy of the highest honor as a man
and Of the fullest confidence ana esteem
and affection as a Christian.
II have taken pains to make careful
inquiry regarding certain business tram
sactions which have been the subject
OF fierce denunciation on the part Of
some of Mr.. Roekefeller's critics, and
do not hesitate TO declare on the basis
of such knowledge that these transac-
tons, fully understood and fairly Judged,
are in accordance with the highest stand

STATE PRISON
SCANDAL.
Additional Chapter Begun in
Hearing at Windsor.
OPIUM WAS SMUGGLED In
When Supply Was Stopped Prisoner
Went Crazy-Two Former
Guards Being Ex-
amined.
OPIUM WAS SMUGGLED In

Windsor, June LA new chapter of
the state prison scandal, which bids fair
to startle Windsor before it is finished,
was opened yesterday morning before
Trial Justice Horace G. Pease of Hart
ford in the warden's Office within the
prison walls.
While the utmost reticence is main
tanned by all concerned, it is learned
that for some time before the breaking
out of the personal trouble between ex-
Supt. Cakes and ex-Keeper Harpin it
became apparent that prisoners we're
receiving articles of food and tobacco,
tabooed under state prison rules, and
that system of trading was going on
between the eonvicts and the outside
world.
It is stated that the allegation is that
shoe uppers in process of stitching and
leather from the shoe shop disappeared.
When long-term man some time ago
went apparently crazy, as stated, from
loss of dope" quiet investigation
was made, and enough was discovered
TO make it apparent that opium in some
way was being struggled into the prison.
In consequence of the statements
made by the men as to what become of
leather missing from the shoe shop, the
sheriff and his deputies were set at
work on the outside. At the hearing
yesterday morning former Guards
Charles T. Hanson and Harrison Me-
Cormack were summoned to appear. They
were representated by j. 9. Enright and
Edward Buck, their attorneys.
The proceedings were held behind
closed doors, County Attorney Charles
Batchelder Of Woodstock conducting the
examination. Messrs. Hanson and Nc
Cormack bear excellent regulations in
Windsor The former has lived here
for the past two OF three years, and the
latter has been resident for some 20
years, and is prominent in Masonic and
fraternal societies. Their counsel
secuted the imputation against the con
duct Of their clients.
