Terror in st. Petersburg.

ST. Petersburg. Terror has ruled
throughout the day over the summon
Ing at noon of another general strike.
One hundred thousand men have left
work, the populRee has secured arms,
Cossacks fill the streets and boasts
are made by revolutionary leaders that
the guard regiments will refuse to fire
upon the people. From all over Rus
sia come revolutionary reports and 1t
is declared from q high source that
ukase will be issned, whereby a large
portion of the imperial domain which
covers almost third of European Rus
sia and is the property of the Emperor
and grand dukes will be given to the
peasants. A plot to assasslnate Wltte
is also rumored.
The strike was decided upon by the
workmen's strike committee, which
now is completely under the domina-
ton of the social reyolutionists. whose
leaders openly proclaim that their ul-
innate object is the complete over

pruaqists Feel Better.

Lewiston, Me.-Druggists have been
considerably troubled in regard to the
recent ruling OF Commissioner Yerkes
that persons dealing in patent medi-
cines containing alcohol must pay an
internal revenue tax as retail liquor
dealers. The payment of this tax is
held in this state prima facie evidence
that the holder is violating the pro-
hibitory law, and renders him liable to
indictment, while II they do not pay
it they are likely to be arrested and
fined by the United States authorities.
The Androscoggin county druggists
association accordingly employed an
attorney to write TO Commissioner
Yerkes, asking that the ruling be sus-
pended until after the state legislature
meets in 1907, SO that law applicable
to the situation can be passed.

Washington, d. C.-No boycott; no
race feeling, but mere personal quar-
rel was the cause of the death of the
ave American Presbyterian mission
aries recently at Lienchow. In China,
according TO the report made to Sec
retary Root by Sir Chentung Lang
Chang, the Chinese minister here.
The minister had with him when he
came to the state department a copy
of a long cablegram from the Viceroy
of the Provinces of Kwantung and
Kwangsi, bearing on the subject.
The report of Minister LANG handed
Secretary Root. is as follows:
Canton, Nov. 12.
Chinese Minister Liang, Washington:
"On the first of the 10th moon (Oct.
2S), at Lienchow. the village people,
In riot occasioned by the celebration
Of local festival, burned hospital
in connection with the American mis-
sionary establishment there and killed
Ave persons, male and female. The
dead bodies have been recovered and
duly placed in collins.
"Dr. Machle and Miss Patterson are
safe. Soldiers have been dispatched
with all speed to the affected district
with strict orders to apprehend the
murderers without delay.
"In obedience to an imperial decree,
the civil and military officials of that
place have been degraded. All the
steps taken by the provincial authorl-
ties have been reported to the Wal
wau Pu for communication to the
American minister.
"Ahe American consul at Canton is
inclined to connect this affair with the
boycott movement with the view OF
making the most of the situation.
when DR.. Machle. Miss Patterson
and a Chinese missionary arrived at
Canton under escort from Lienchow,
Taotai Wan of the bureau of foreign
affairs was appointed to inquire into
this affair with the American consul.
at was found that the trouble origi-
mated in standing dispute between
DR.. Machle and the Catholic converts.
"On Oct. 28. festival was being
celebrated outside the city Of Lien
chow near the hospital connected with
the American missionary establish
ment at that place. The platform built
for the occasion happened to encroach
slightly upon the ground belonging to
the American missionary society.
"Dr. Machle desired its removal and
seized three consecrated cannons on
the altar. This act excited the indig
nation of the village people and
brought on a riot.
"The investigation of the American
consul and Taotai Wan was especially
directed to clearing up the point
whether this affair had any connec-
ton with the boycott movement.
"All testified that there has been no
society organized at Lienchow for car
rying on the boycott. nor had there
been any public meetings or discus
sions on the subject. This trouble,
therefore. had no connection whatever
with the boycott movement.
Now Taotai Wan has been dis
patched to Lionchow in company with
the American consul and three naval
officers to make an investigation on
the spot. A report to the above effect
has been sent to the Waiwau Pu
(signed) "Tsen."
