Another Rockefeller Gift

Boston, April 8.-The American
Baptist missionary union has received
from John D. Rockefeller a contribu-
ton of 100000 and has accepted and
acknowledged it. For several years
Mr.. Rockefeller has made an annual
gift to the union and the contribution
just acknowledged represents Mr..
Rockefeller's annual offering.
In addition to this gift, it was an
nOunced that Mr.. Rockefeller has con-
tributed a considerable sum of money
to be used for the building needs of
the union.
Mr.. Rockefeller contributes annual
ly to the building needs of the union,
but it is announced that his gift this
year exceeds those of former years.
The exact amount will not be made
known until after formal action has
been taken by the union on Monday,
Mr.. Rocekfeller's gift of 100000 to
the American board of commissioners
for foreign missions Congregation
aD will be acted upon by the pru
| dental committee board next week
The committee, however. has already
accepted a report of the sub-commit
tee recommending the acceptance Of
the 100000.

The Great Northern Steamship Co.

tie, WASH, and Yokohama, Nagasaki,

magnificent American built steam
ships the Minnesota" and the 'Da-
kota," marks new era in transpor-
tation facilities between the United
States and the Orienl. These mag.
nificent steamships with tneir super
ior facilities in handling immense
freight cargos and the luxurious ap-
pointments for passenger travel, has
given an impetus to our oriental trade.
The North Pacific route to the orient
is rapidly becoming the popular one,
and now that the two palatial steam
ships, Minnesota" and Dakota" have
been put in commission. there is no
question but that further greater in
crease in our trade with he orient as
we'll as increased passenger travel to
Asiatic ports will be inaugurated.
The first sailing of the Minnesota"
in addition to carrying the largest car
go to the orient ever carried by any
ship in the world, as we'll as an ex-
tensive passenger list, augurs we'll for
the future.
The Minnesota will sail on it's
next voyage to the orient on Saturday,
April 30, and it will not be amiss to
say here that the excellence of her
passenger accommodations will be
heralded to the travelling public of the
United States by all who enjoyed the
pleasant voyage across the Pacific on
her first trip, as furnishing the acme
of travel comfort. The fact that the
superior accommodations of the Great
Northern Steamship company in con.
nection with the comfortable journey
afforded by the Great Northern Rail-
way to Seattle, the sailing point of
the minnesota" will make this route
the popular one from occident to orr

"Jack the Ripper" Murder.

New York, April 7.-Elements of
mystery, recalling the stories of "Jack
the Ripper" who terrorized the White
chapel district of London some years
ago, led to the sensational stabbing
today in Thirteenth street hotel of
Mamie Wilson, young woman. She
died in a hospital few hours after
the stabbing.
The woman was stabbed in the alb
domen. The wound was made with
very long knife. The character of
the cut was similar to that made on
the victims of the London Jack the
Ripper" James Boyne, a patron of
the hotel, has been arrested.
He told the police he was with the
woman last night, but said that she
had left him and did not know how
she was stabbed. When he was ar
rested it was found that seven OF
Boyne's teeth had been knocked out
and that one of his eyes had been
blackened by blow.

THE WAR IN THE ORIENT.
An Appeal for Aid in Behalf Of the
Suffering.

An Appeal TOR Ala IN Behalf OF the
Suffering.
Touching appeals from Christian
workers in the Far East have come
to prominent citizens of the United
States, imploring aid for the sick and
wounded soldiers of both armies and
the multitude of destitute widows and
orphans Of soldiers killed in the war.
Rev. Y. Honda, principal of the
Aoyama Theological School at Toxic,
Japan, in recent letter, says: How
long this distressing condition of
things will alst we cannot say. The
people are doing their best and every
charitable agency is taxed to the ut
most, but SO numerous have the i'm
pOverished families become that our
means of immediate relief are utter
ly inadequate. Could some general
fund be raised for this noble purpose,
and missionaries on the ground be
furnised with the means of distribut-
ing and alleviating the distress of
these families, it would indeed be a
precious gift, and assure you never
be forgotten
We may not help beligerents, but
we may help the suffering and dis
tressed. The Red Cross Of Pity is
neutral in every cline, and the claims
of helpless children are a challenge
to Christian love and beneficence the
world over.
In response to the moving appeals
thus coming from Christian workers
in Japan, the Japanese Relief Fund,
has been organized to obtain the help
needed, and all funds contributed will
be distributed through the Evangeli-
cal Alliance of Japan, under the over
sight of Bishop Harris, who is now
in that country.
The executive committee, composed
of Hon. Seth Low, Bishop Greer, Bish-
op Harris, Chas. Cuthbert Hall, D. D.;
w. R. Huntington, D. D.; DR.. New
ell Dwight Hills, Geo. H. Southland,
DR.. VIM. Elliott Grffis and B. F. Buck,
secretary, request contributions, large
or small, be sent to the Franklin
Trust company, treasurer, No. 40
Broadway, New York City.
About $18,OO0.OO has already been
contributed for this purpose, $1O,OOO.-
90 of which has been forwarded to

The Talk of Peace.

st. Petersburg, April 6.-At the
German embassy the statement that
it had advised the foreign Office that
it regarded an early conclusion of
peace as probable was denied. The
embassy, it was pointed out. simply
reported the prevailing talk about
peace in St. Petersburg.
The embassy now shares the Opin-
ion expressed in these dispatches that
the efforts in the direction of peace
failed. and that for the moment moth
ing is being done. The general feel
ing exists in diplomatic circles, how
ever, that peace has been brought ap-
preciably nearer.
The admiralty expresses ignorance
of the exact whereabouts of Vice Ad-
miral Rojestvensky's squadron, and
has no Information showing that the
three vessels sighted by the steamer
Marmora (Which arrived at Colombo,
Ceylon, yesterday, $50 miles south
east of Ceylon, April 4, belonged Ia
the Russian squadron.
Nevertheless, the belief prevails in
naval circles that the squadron will
go through the straits of Malacca, but
that Admiral Togo's heavy division
will not be encountered until Rojest
vensky reaches the eastern sea.

DEMANDS OF
REFORMERS
Social Revolutionary Party Of Russia
Draws Up Document Contain.
ing Its Program.
Is EXTREMELY RADICAL
Uprisings Of Peasants in the Baltic
Provinces on the lncrease-The
Talk Of Peace.

Moscow, April 6.-The central COM
mittee of the social revolutionary
party has drawn up a document con-
tanning the main points of it's pro-
gram, and of this hundreds of thous-
ands OF copies are being printed for
circulation in all parts of European
Russia.
The first and main point is the es-
tablishment of a democratic republic
on the ruins of the autocracy, and
beside the usual points of social DEM
ocratic doctrine it includes many ar
guments especially directed to Rus
sian conditions, and designed to ap-
peal to the self-interest of the Rus
sian conditions, and also designed to
appeal to the self-trial. It voices
phrases familiar to the American ear,
such as Initiative and referendum"
public ownership of public utilities"
etc.
The program is divided under two
heads, the first politico-regal domain
under which it demands the institu-
ton of democratic republic with
broad autonomy for the provinces,
municipalities and communes; the
widest application of the federal prin-
ciple to the relations between the var
ious naionalities, direct secret uni
versal ballot, without distinction as
to sex, nationality or religion, pro-
pOrtional representation; direct pOpu,
To- fo1n wit tat tat =
referendum; electibility, responsible
ity and removability of all officials;
separation of church and state; COM
plete freedom of conscience, speech,
the press, assembly and association;
right to strike; compulsory, popular
and gratituOus education, and the
abolition of the standing army and
the substitution of national militia.
Under the second head, national
economy domain, the party favors an
eight-hour day with reduction for
the more dangerous and unsanitary
state insurance for all, the forms reg
ulated by the insured at the expense
of the state and employers; regulation
of factory construction; prohibition of
child labor below 16, and of female
labor at certain occupations, and pro-
fessional organization of the work
men with an increasing share in the
internal management of institutions.
The document closes with warning
to individuals against Estate social
ism," which it declares to be sys-
TEN of half measures, deluding work
ers, concentrating industry and COM
merce in the hands of the governing
bureaucracy, and urging the sum-
moning of a constituent assembly in
which it proposes to conduct the CAM
paign for the dissolution of the au-
tocratic regime and transformation
of the existing order.

Uprisinqs Of Peasants.

st. Petersburg, April 6.-The reports
of peasant uprisings in the Baltic
provinces, especially in Lithuania and
CORTLAND, continue extremely dis
quieting. Although Cossacks and in
fantry patrols are scattered through
the country, the troops are unable
to stop the plundering of estates by
the larger peasant bands.
At Werra, where regiment of Cos
sacks fred on mob which had COM
plete possession of the towns, the riot
ers dispersed, but they broke up into
smaller bands, which terrorized the
neighboring landowners.
Similar incidents have occurred at
other places. The smaller bands
drive off cattle, burn barns and fod-
der and help themselves to grain and
provisions. Dispatches from dozens
of places tell of panic produced by
the depredations of rowing bands of
peasants.
The agrarian agitation is regard
ed as the result of irritation of the
peasants against the control by the
privileged classes, the savage charac-
ter of the movement being due to
the non-civilization of Russian vii
lage life, and the abscense of peace
able means of protest.

Fund for Aued Ministers.

Melrose, Mass, April S.-The condi-
tional pledge by Andrew Carnegie to
give 100000 to the fund for super
animated preachers was announced
to the New England Methodist confer
ence here today by the Rev. DR.. James
Boyd Brady, field agent of the Preach
ers' Aid society, who was appointed
last year to raise fund for this pur-
pose. DR.. Brady stated that Mr.. Car
negie had promised to give the last
million dollars of fund of $25, 000. 900
to be raised by the society.
