Il
St. Petersburg, who were elected to
choose fifty members Of the Schid-
lovski reconciliation committee, met
again yesterday and reaffirmed the
resolution adopted the previous day,
which threatened. in case the demands
are not granted. not only to refuse to
elect labor representatives to the COM
mission but to order a resumption of
the general strike.
These demands are for the release of
imprisoned workmen, freedom from ar
rest. unhampered speech, full publicity
of meetings of the commission and the
abolition of the censorship.
practical ultimatum was delivered
calling for an answer today. There is
little, expectation that the government
will grant the conditions demanded.
The strike already has assumed large
proportions here about $4,000 men
being out.
Among those who struck yesterday
are the employees of the st. Petersburg
shops of the Warsaw railroad. The
strike has not yet extended to the
trainmen, but the leaders may decide
to order them out in order to paralyze
one of the most important railroads in
Russia.

cial naval board, were voted down, as

tnent to have the investigation made

merce and labor will be running to its
full capacity during the summer.

The war Office insists that, no matter

the army in Manchuria gives details
of various attacks by the Japanese the
last few days, and the Associated Press
correspondent at Mukden, in dispatch
received at midninght, indicates a con-
tinuation of the artillery duel, but
neither report throws any light upon
the rumored intention of General

Face to Face With Famine
The Siberian railroad, which is being
worked to it's full capacity by purely
military traffic. is about to have a fur
ther burden imposed upon it, namely
that of feeding the resident nom
combatant population. The stocks of
provisions in Irkutsk and other towns
in Siberia were not as large as usual
at the beginning of the winter and are
now running low The government has
been informed that provisions must be
imported by the railroad or that the
towns will be face to face with famine
within a fortnight. This will necessi-
tate some delay in the forwarding of
military supplies, which are sorely
needed at the present moment.

part of the first line of the triple line
of defenses in the hills beyond the

higher in the hills beyond. The Jap

Russians and meeting with but little
opposition.
At Ofurei the Japanese found tren-

MRS. srANFoRD's MIND CLEAR
President Jordan Speaks of the Last
Time He Saw Her

Time He Saw Her
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, March
2.-David Starr Jordan, president of
Stanford university, said today:
Mrs. Stanfords mind was perfect
IL clear the last time saw her, Jan
uary Is last. the day after the reported
poisoning in San Francisco. Since then
1 have had several letters from her
in her own handwriting. and 1 defy
anyone to say they are not perfectly
logical and clear. The only times Mrs.
Stanford mentioned the reported poi
soning was the day after 1t occurred,
as she came down on the train with
me.
For my part l do not think she
drank any poisoned water. Strychnine
might have been introduced into the
water afterwards for spiteful purposes,
possibly a petty quarrel of servants.
This is only my own theory of the
matter"
President Jordan said that Mr2 STAN
ford's death would not have any i'm
mediate effect in regard to the uni
versity, as she was fully in harmony
with the policy Of the board of trus-
tees. Pending her funeral, most out
side activities will be suspended, but
recitations will continue. When asked
regarding his connection with the uni
versity DR.. Jordan said: II expect to
remain here so long as. in the judg-
ment of the board of trustees, my SER
vices are helpful to the institution"

she inherited from her husband to the
regents of stanford university, to be
held in trust for that institution after
her death. The last transfer Of i'm
portance made by her was about three
years ago, when she made over her
magnificent residence on California
street, and at the same time she prac-
tically gave to the regents of the uni
versity trusteeship to her jewelry,
which she provided should be disposed
Of for the benefit of Leland Stanford,
jr., university after she had passed
away.
OF those who II Is presumed by
friends are likely to receive a share of
the estate left by Mrs. Stanford, it Is
throp and her sister and brother, Her.
mione and Leland Stanford Lathrop,
the children of Charles Lathrop, will
fare best, for they were more frequent
ly in her company than the others and
deeply interested Mrs. Stanford.
Besides these relatives Mrs. stan
ford is survived by brother, Ariel
Lathrop of Albany, N. Y; two nieces,
one in New York and the other in
Brooklyn, the daughters of late
brother, Daniel S. Lathrop, and two
nieces in Saratoga That they have all
been provided for is generally UNDER
stood, for Mrs. Stanford had frequently
remarked to friends that, while she did
not see much of her relatives in the
east, she had not forgotten them and
would remember them in her will.
Made Will Recently
Mountford Wilson. Mrs Stanford's
attorney. and her brother, Charles
Lathrop, have stated that Mrs. STAN
ford made her will few months ago,
but until later they would not make it's
contents known to the world.
Raphael We'll, prominent merchant
of this city, now on his way to Eu-
rope, has telegraphed from Chicago
that he will contribute $1,000 toward
monument in memory of Mrs. STAN
ford, which he hopes to see erected in
front of her former home on California
