 OF LOYALTY
Laid Down by the Moscow
 Congress
The Zemstvos Will SuppoF. the Gov ernment if the Czar's Manifesto is Carried Out in its Entirety and Without Deviation.

Moscow, Nov 22-The end of four days debate by the executive commit tee of the ZemStvo congress brought in the following resolution in favor of supporting the government, the reading of which was greeted with tremendous applause.
 Considering that the imperial man. ifesto. satisfies all demands voiced since the Zemstvo congress a year ago and that the liberties accorded by the man ifesto are indispensable to the tram quilization of the country, this con- gress declares itself in complete soli darity with this constitutional basis The responsibility for the realization of the program rests upon the cabinet The congress is convinced that the cab inet can count on the support of Q great majority of zemstvos and num- icipalities so long as it follows the path for the accomplishment of the Ii berties promised by the manifesto bu; every deviation will encounter decisive opposition.
 "The congress believes that the sole means of guaranteeing the authority of government, the pacification oi the country and the support of the peoples representative are the imme- diate promulgation of universal suf- frage in elections to the douma, the transformation of the first douma, into a constituent assembly with the appro- bation of the emperor of constitution for the Russian empire and the organ iZation of territorial reforms"
 Measures for the realization of the liberties granted by manifesto are re garded as immediately imperative. Il must moreover devolve on the douma to establish 8 fundamental basis foI land reform end to decide any ques. tion in the domain of labor legislation
 The resolution concludes by enu- merating various measures which il says must be carried out before the douma meets. These include investiga- tionS into recent occurrences in various parts of tke country, the trial of loca, officials and police who became palp- ably involved in the disorders, the maintainance of public security, the proclamation of full amesty for poli- tical and religious offenses up to the date of the imperial manifesto and the abolition Of capital punishment

RERrLESSNESS OF K. C. BARRON
A Telegram From Buffalo That He
 Ate no Breakfast.

Yesterday brought forth a new and interesting chapter in the life of Harry c. Barron, the young Buffalo man whose engagement to Miss Calla Mills of this city was announced several weeks ago but who according to infor- nation given Miss Mills Tuesday was married man and now residing with his wife in Buffalo. It will be re- membered that in the published ac- count of the affair in the Republican telegram had ben sent to Barron by Miss Mills begging a quick answer either confirming or denying the story she had been told. Yesterday morning the answer was received. It read 1 Report untrue. Leave for the west tonight. Believe nothing," and the telegram has had the effect of in a measure reassuring the young lady that dreadful mistake had been made However other reports from Buffalo also received by telegraph show that the message sent Miss Mills must have been for the purpose of gaining a lit- tie time or that he might catch a breathing spell after which he could better supply her with an explanation of his conduct. It was intimated in the second telegram that MT. Barron had
 
 sleep was broken coming to him in small doses. He rolled and tossed a great deal. Yesterday morning he did not relish his breakfast when it was placed before him at his home on Della ware avenue. Business of most im- portant nature took him to his office with a rush and his actions generally was such that it led those most inter ested to telegraph to Phoenix to find out if the news had yet been broken to Miss Mills and whether develop ments here did not have some con- nection with MT. Barrons restlessness in Buffalo.
 It could not be learned whether ha had left for tie west as-the telegram to Miss Mihs stated but it is almost certain that he will at an early date take a trip out of Buffalo in some di- rection. Attorney J. M. Jamison. who is in communication with Buffalo part ies and who Miss Mills said was in receipt of the first intimation she had of the affair when seen at his office yesterday afternoon said that he had conferred with Miss Mills regarding the matter. Anything further he said would have to come from Miss Mills.

LET THE LIGHT SHINE
 ON LIFE INSURANCE
Equitable Officer Believes Publicity Would Prevent Repetition of Present Scandal
There Should Also be Degree eff State Control Over Companies in Order to Win Back the Confidence of Policyholders.

New York, Nov. 22.-Being on the witness stand before the Armstrong legislative committee for three days, Gage E. Tarbell, second vice president of the Equitable Life Assurance So ciety, finished his testimony today and just before the adjournment sumitted a list of remedies for existing abuses in the management of insurance com panies and for legislation designed to give the state proper control over com panies and to insure the confidence of policyholders. Prominent among these suggestions was absolute publicity. While admitting that wrong had been done by life insurance officials, MT. Tarbell said he had no apologies to make for any of them and that he hoped they would be punished.
 MT. Tarbell was on the stand the en- tire day and was questioned as to the system of agencies and commissions and other compensation allowed them for getting business. Just before re- cess, the fact was brought out that MT. Tarbell had taken out insurance on his own life and on members of his family and had received an agents commis . sion on premiums as well as renewal commissions. He said that since he became an officer he had taken out S2OO,OOO on his own life in the Equit- able. Beside his policy in the Equit able he had taken insurance in the New York Life the arrangement being made with Geo. w. Perkins and on this too. he received premiums. He also had a policy in the Aetna and the Travellers, on all of which he collect ed commissions. He said he carried $400.000 on his own life and S100,010 on the members of his family.

following Monday morning, on condition that they
both fought with swords upon horseback, and that
they rode into the field from opposite ends as the
nearby church clock struck six, and that they
charged one another instantly, dispensing with
seconds and other formaities.
De Lacy consented.
The news of the coming fight of course ran round
the country like wild-fre, and such a sensation
it that hundreds arrived upon the ground the
night before in order to get good position. The
country people were trooping in throughout the
night, and when De Lacy rode into the field on the
stroke of six in the morning he found that there
were many thousands in attendance As Fitz-
gerald did not ride in at the same moment, De Lacy
at first imagined that he had been fooled But he
was not long left to his fancy for the next instant
he observed tremendous commotion at the opposite
end of the field where lane-way led into it, and
almost Immediately with gathering, cashing, clang
ing banging, enough to waken the dead, Fitzgerald
waving a sword above his head dashed into the field

dash at him. AS with gathering and changing he
came on the animal which De Lacy rode, getting
frightened, turned his head, and attempted to dash
wildly away great went up from the thousands
around the field Fitzgerald chased De Lacy who
neither could steady quiet his horse, round and
round the field and always when he took short
cut to get in front of De Lacys animal, the latter
turned his head and tore off in the opposite drec-
ton Wont you stop, you coward you. and show
me some fght?" Fitzgerald would after De
Lacy to the ferocious delight of the multitude.
At length De Lacy acquired enough control over
his maddened animal to induce it in its wild career
to bound out of the field by the lane by which
Fitzgerald had entered Fitzgerald pursued him out,
but was far out-distanced. The roaring crowd,
however got up with Fitzgerald. took him off the
horse and carried him into and through Cork their

One of the most remarkable duels of the dueing
age in Ireland that not fought in County
Cork toward the beginning of the last century.
Franco-I Irish chevalier named De Lacy arrived in
Cork from the gay capital where he had been bred,
and where he had, or had not won fame (Which
preceded him to Cork for dexterty with both pistol
and sword for readiness to fight and for the hosts

bore himself haughtily superciously, almost AFRO

He got his opportunity few nights later, when

the whole ballroom, he walked up to De Lacy;
