St. Petersburg, Feb. IS, D. m.-Op- pression like the shadow of doom seems hanging over the Russian capf- tai. Bells are tOlling, and the people In the streets are awestruck at yes- terday's bloody crime. The tragedy struck deep into the heart of the per- plexed and tried emperor Many who were unsparing in criticism yesterday today have only expressions of svn pathy for his unhappy lot. Death is ln the air and n0ne knows where the next blow will fall, although precau- uons are doubled for the preservation of the lives of the members of the inn perial family and ministers.
 Secret police are arresting those who are known to be associated with the fighting organization. The authorities realize the impotency of their efforts. and all the imperial families are warn ed not to venture out Among revo- lutionaries the sentiment is elation. They openly glory in the deed. Too early yet to say what the political ef feet will be. For the moment everv- thing is at a standstin.

FLOODS IN THE SOUTH.

A bridge is washed out at Clifton, Arizona, on the Arizona G New Mexico railroad and consider able damage has been done. Trains are still stalled as the result of the snow and floods, especially on the Rock Island and the Santa Fe in New Mexico A washout has caused a freight wreck at Tucumcari on the Rock Island and another washout on the Southern Pacific at Lordsburg has tied up trains from California.

 MT. Foral1er requested postponement until Monday and when Mr. Beveridge objected the Ohio senator said with visible feeling: "If compelled to con sicer the matter now we will consider it, and we will keep on considering it, asking no favOrs and granting none" It was evident from the utterances which came from other opponents of joint statehood that they were in ac- cord.
 That's what we'll do." said MT. Tel Ter. Les go on with the fight" echoed Mir. Blackburn. Mr. Beveridge then -ielded. lie said that his only object had been to get the two houses closer together.
 Mir. Nelson said that while he was willing, the bill should go over. he ob- jected to the threat contained in MT. Foraker's remarks.
 MT. Foraker replied that he chose his own words. and further recalled the feet that thc statehood bill, two years ago, was held up by the sena- tors who were now exhibiting haste.

SENTENCED TO DEATH
pr. Harper of University of Chicago
 Believes He Is Doomed.

Chicago, Feb. 18.--"I have received my death sentence. It Is my firm con viction that l will not survive this operation. for I know I am afflicted with cancer"
 This, in effect. the Daily News to- day says, is what Dr. Wm. R. Harper, president of the University of Chica- go. uttered in the presence of some of hla friends in discussing the operation set for next Wednesday. He does not expect ever to take up the active pres idcncy a-ain. The friends and rela- tiYes of ths- educator have been netj 2 fed to this effect. John D. Rockefel- Ter, founder of the university, is ex- pected to arrive in Chicago soon, and Prof. Robert F. Harper, brother of the president, is expected to reach New York on Sunday night or Monday from Europe.
 Gloom overspreads the university, for nearly every one realizes the ser iOusness of pr. Harpers illness. Dean Harry Pratt Judson will be acting president as soon as Dr. Harper re- linquishes his work preparatory to un- dergoing the operation, and will con- tinue in that position until Dr. Harper returns or 2 successor is appointed.
 Three separate and thorough exam nations of the matter removed at the time Dr. Harper was operated on for appendicitis have been made by phy- sicians and surgeons studying his case are unanimous and the decision, it is said, is that he has cancer. It is for this reason that Dr. McBurney of New York, one of the greatest specialists in this line in the United States was called into the case and was asked to perform the operation.
