st. Petersburg, Nov. 16,--A false
emperor has made his appearance
near Penza, and already his following
numbers $4,000. This startling report
was received this afternoon in dis
patch from Simbrisk.
Penza is in the heart of vast re-

Volga, where agrarian uprisings have
been occurring on large scale, ana
IL the report proves to be true that a
pretender to the throne has placed
himself at the head of the peasantry,
the government will soon face, be-
sides other trouble, formidable
agrarian rebellion. 1t required year

by Pugaticheff, who impersonated the

the time of Catharine IL. That up

- rAlu $4,000, AND ASKS GODS HELP
Even Eloquent Afternoon Speaker Chauncy Depew Asked
President to Send Hyde as Am
baSsadOr TO France.
PRESIDENT SAID IT WOULDN'T BEGIN TO DO AT ALL

witness was asked If, later, he chang
ed his mind about the propriety OF
introducing the measure in the legis-
lature, and he replied:
yes, sir. From the fact that the
base calumny which Mr.. Hyde uttered
here had been circulated in the pap
ers, | called upon Senator Amblerin
and said that desirable as | be-
lieyed legislation would be, | feared
that my unfortunate connection with
the Shipbuilding matter was of such
character that it would be better to
drop this legislation"
Mr. Odell then said that he wrote
a letter, at the request of Mr.. Mcln-
tyre, former fourth vice president of
the Equitable, in behalf of Mr.. Hyde's
candidacy for the French ambassador
ship. This had nothing to do, how
ever, with the Shipbuilding settle
ment. The letter was written before
the settlement.
In regard to political contributions,
the witness said that he knew moth
ing about them. He also said that
he knew nothing about any efforts of
the insurance companies to prevent
inimical legislation. He said that no
hands, either directly or indirectly,
for political purposes or to otherwise
influence legislation. His suit was
not the only Shipbuilding suit set
tied, stated Mr.. Odell. The Inter
myer claim was settled and so were
Others. He felt that his claim was
just.
"Of course" said Prosecutor
Hughes you understand that the
| committee is not here TO try the mer

ested because definite threats were
made that"
"There is no truth in the statement

Frost might have induced him to
come out in favor of single state
