General Milcs's Belated Denial

Mrs Davis was Frustrated By disease. \
But Mr.. Davis has spoken, ana MIS-.
Davis Inns spoken, and iii tho South, at
least. their statements will stpg nd IN spite
Of anything tll;,t General Miles may say
to tho contrary. Mrs. Davis declares
that ho treated lor husband III brutal.
and inlluman manner, and when she Was
permitted to visit him General Miles \ Is
syed d verbal order That mo officer shall

that General Mics refused TO put fit N

It Is further charged that on another nm q Ter

said: "lIcllo. jeff! How are you feeling e ICING
to-day?" 8J.,l, ii 55l n 55l III
These statements were made to Co lone
w. o. Shelton, OF Richmond, by Mrs MI
Davis herself. they were also made IN
Mrs. Davls's book, and General Niles
had every opportunity TO reply but put no
word Of denial said he.
AS to tho shacltles, General Miles never ''e'
received positive orders TO put them up pc

Senator Bailey,s Feelings.


When Senator j. w. Bailey said that

n. man IN his position shoulI solicit con-
tributlons to the University OF virginia rIi'
endowment fund, ho gave q reasonable o. f'
excuse for declining to act. ~ But wien
he gave as an additional reason and as
tho main ason, that President Alder
man had said that Southern statesmen non q
to-day were not as bright as 4 Calh 9 =
una the men Of that age, he talked ll ike
q school girl, ana not like q manly man. IN
President Alderman nloa,1t no Fence,
and thero was no occasion for senator
Bailey or any mnn to take offence CO. But -'l1
suppose he had dspnraged the Southern
lmcmbers Of Congress, what had that to
do with the case Ea n.

was here before DR.. Alderman was born.
and it will he here long after heli gone.

Senator Bailey Is, doubtless, very friend-

Alderman has hurt his feelings, he takes

Changes Are Demanded.

st. Petersburg, Feb 10, 1920 a. M
The Russ and the Novosti, comment
ing on the assassination of Grand
Duke Sergius, point out how impossl-
Bile is a continuation of the conditions.
The Russ says:
From the day of the death OF Min
lister of the Interior Won Plehve the
fighting organization of the social rev.
olutionists held it's peace and the four
months of Prince Sviatopolk-Mirsky'
regime was a period OF active but
peaceful propaganda. Now that blood
again has been shed, and although for
eigners predict all will end in revoln>
ton, the case is not yet hopeless. only
let representatives of the people he al
lowed to participate in the govern
ment and the nation is directed to the
road of peace and our sufferingsi must
end We do not want blood and ter,
ror, but peace and peaceful condl-
tions. On this hope we see our only
safety from the tragic incidents that
are happening about us"
The Novosti says: THE victims or
the war number tens OF thousands. ~
hundred of high officials are among
those victims. People are losing their
lives in the streets of Russian cities.
We cannot live longer under such con-
ditions. The happiness of the people
should not be bought with their blood.
Compromises of the bureaucracy can
not save the situation. Enough OF this
blood and terror. The emperor must
honestly and sincerely meet the hopes
of the people half way. The throne
must join hands with the people
against the bureaucracy. This is the
only salvation from the horrors that
threaten to darken the near future.

Peace Talk Is Revived.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 19.-ln dlplo-
matte circles the opinion is quite gen
orally expressed that Fridays tragedy
may be followed by the decision OF the
government to conclude peace. For
some time, despite the official attitude
maintained by the government, there
has been growing appreciation OF the
difficulties of prosecuting the war in
the midst of increasing complications
at home, and, as announced by the AS
sociated Press Saturday, the matter
was actually the subject of formal con-
sideration by the emperor and his min
listers February 16.
Strong influences which, it is under
stood, in spite of denials, are headed
by M. Witte, president of the commit
tee of ministers, have been working
quietly in this direction.
General Grippenberg's revelations
followed by the murder of Grand Duke
Serglus, in the opinion of some OF the
ablest diplomats. are not unlikely to

Wants Report Printed.

Washington, Feb. 19.-The senate
committee on privileges and elections
yesterday authorized Chairman Bur
rows to present to the senate the testi-
mony and arguments in the Smoot in
vestigation with a request that they he
printed as a house document.
Senator Pettus urged that the chair
man should call the full committee to-
gether as early as possible and that
some sort of report should be given
to the senate in time for action as the
present session The committee was
adjourned subject to the call of the
chairman, with the understanding that
meeting would be called early next
week with view to making report.

Hoch Has a Double.

Chicago, Feb. 19.-Johann Hoch has
a double in Frank Busch. Yesterday
at a police station where Hoch once
received women whom he married,
Busch, who is also a prisoner, looked
the part of Hoch in every respect and
talked with the German accent, as
talked with the German accept, as
does Hoch. In fact, Busch looks 50
much like the man who has confessed
to marrying II wives that victims
whom Busch, it is alleged, had robbed
and who had identified Hoch as the
swindler admitted that they had made
a mistake in identity and picked out
Busch as the right man.
Busch, like Hoch, was not moved by
the Identification. He would smile, like
Hoch, and at times utter witty express
sions. Busch, it is alleged, preyed on
women, but did not bar the men.

The Mission of Leopold.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 19.-Prince
Frederick Leopold of Prussia, who
had been visiting the emperor, started
for Berlin at midnight Saturday. 1t
was announced from Berlin today that
Prince Friedrich Leopold was to go to
the far east by steamer from Genoa,
owing to the difficulty in sending the
princely train quickly over the con-
gested Siberian line, and that he would
first pay visit to emperor Nicholas.
A dispatch from st. Petersburg early
yesterday, however, threw a different
light on the princes visit to st. Pc
tersburg. 1t was intimated that the
