The recent decree of the car to
abolish the censorship of the press
will relieve Kriyochlik of a great deal
Of his responsibility. The new Russian
press law is similar to that enforced
in Germany, newspapers are allowed
to prin. almost anything, but the
editors are made responsible for every
thing appearing in their papers.
Foreigners cannot imagine the sys-
tenn of censorship prevailing in Russia.
One has to observe at close range the
effect CT the system on the daily press.
It is seldom that any paper appears on
the streets here or in any place in Rus
STA without great black spots blotting
out sections, and even whole columns.
The censorship now is not as rigor-
Gus as it once was, but it still is a
great force. News gets out of Russia
that is not allowed to see the light of
day within it's borders. To the for
eigner the system is not easily e1-
planned. for type is blotted out that
would seem to have no bearing on the
Internal affairs; sometimes the most
innocent of items disappear because
they would set the readers to thinking.
For instance, an eclipse of the moon
might lead the superstitious to imagine
that some hard blow was to be struck
to the empire.
The system requires. it is plain, the
highest intelligence and learning on
the part Of those who revise the press
reports, and even then the job is not
a bed of roses. for some one high in
authority will be found objecting to
items that have not been blotted out

GREATEST SEARCHLlCHT
Will Flash Upon Summit of PiHs',

Colorado Springs, Col, Aug 29.-To- night the greatest searchllght fin the world will flash upon the west from the summit of Pike's Peak
 Possessed of twice the power of the lights carried by great battleships, and built upon q track 12O feet in cir conference with rotating contact, this marvellous light will fall upon the kansas-Colorado state line, the Royal Gorge, Denver, and the Cripple Creek gold fields. its white beacon will carry 2S0 miles through the jagged hill country of the Rockies.
 To accomplish this 1t was necessary to build an electric light plant upon Plke's Peak. which involved the al. most Impossible task of constructing Il gasoline engine which could be oper. nted at that altitude. Master Mechanic David Jones overcame this difficulty. He figured that an engine, like human beings, needs more mfr as the nt,uos. phere became rarer, and he planned one which accenttiated The air opepets to nn adequate degree. The engine works splenddly.

THE BUSY BEE.
New York Manufacturer Says They Are Robbing
 Him of Sweets.

New York, Aug 29.-A candy manu facturer owning an extensive plant lr Barclay street appealed to the board of health yesterday for protection against thousands of honey bees which, he declares, are robbing him of large quantities of sweets. If the health authorities do not act, the can dy maker says he will appeal to the police.
 Since early last spring, the com plainant asserts that the honey colec- tors have attacked his employees md customers, and have made his estab- lishment tie base of operations for filling with honey twenty eight hives on the roof of nearby building occu- pied by a firm which deals fin bee keepers supplies.
 q am in the unique position of be- Ing the only man in New York who is being daily robbed of enough sugar to keep 5,OOOO0O bees busy making u metropolitan brand of honey" the candy maker said last night.
 Bee experts tell me that hive as large as those on the vesey street building contains about 25O,OOO bees They are making good thing out of me. It has come to be the exception when each day two or three of the girl or men employees in my factory are not stung. The bees also invade thy retail department on the ground floor, at. tacking customers and thus inturinp my patronage"

THE DECISIVE HOUR.

Portsmouth. \. H.. Aug 2D.-When the peace plenipotentinrles started for the conference room to-day there was q recognition on both sides that the decisive hour in the fate of the pence conference had come. M Witte seemed not in a pleasant frame of mind. He had received new instruc. tions during the night relterating tho old. They left him no lceway. In less the new Japanese proposal met the cmperor's "ultimatum'' as given to President Roosevelt through Ambassa. dor Meyer tho indemnity. hut the ces. sion of half of Sakhnlin without mon ey payment beyond that for the main. tcnance of the Russian prisoners and that involved in the ccssion of the Chinese Eastern railway hc consId. cred that he had full authority to re. ject it hatfy without refcresee to St Petersburg. Mir wittc considered that the emperor had figuratlsely burned his bridges behind him in the replies he had given To the head of the Amer. jean republic. His superior having thus committed himself. Mr wiite felt himself tied hand and foot. Unless the Japanese proposal this morning. therefore. came strictly within his in sfructions he would. according to his views. not only be Justified in. hut l,c compelled to refuse G. Automatically he would. according to tho Russian counsel have that right. Tn . proud man like Witte the position was inSnf. ferahle. He was playing "tiog't comedy" he said to friend.

LIKES THE PLAN.
Count Albert Apponyi is in Favor of International
 Parliament.

Brussels, Aug 29.-The interparlla. inentary congress to-day resumed the ulscussion of the American proposl. ton for the establishment of a per. manent international parliament. Count Albert Apponyi, representing Austria Hungary, supported the prin- ciple of the American plan, but said that the magnitude of the scheme re- quired mature consideration. "No in. ternatlonal parliament" the count said, "has any chance of acceptanca by European nations if it interferes with the principle of their sovereignty and Independence. Therefore 1t is rle- cessary to exainine the membership of the powers and the scope of action of the proposed international parliament and reconcile 1t with the independence of the parliaments of the various pow CTS. The American idea of an inter- national parliament to precisely define international law is grand and bold movement, characteristic of American initiative, but American boldness must be combined with European cau. ton. Europe halls American partlct- patton in the worlds work. as 1t gives us accession to the marvellous material strength and energy of the United States, but we ask the Americans to consider the present state of Europe and the possibility of entanglements and to defer the project until com mittee of international speclallsts' can matureiy study ft.' M
 Count Apponyi closed his remarks by moving the reference of the propo- stion to q committee with instructions to report fin three months. Messrs Moon of Pennsylvania. and Waldo and Goldfogle of New York strongly sup. ported the American project.

Eos and the Captains Nerve Saved
 Them From Capture.

Seattle, Wash, Aug 2D.-The steam ship Centennial reached port last night after voyage to the mouth of the Amur liver, for which place 1t sailed from San Francisco June 12.

 The Centennial dropped anchor fifty miles off Nikoluovsk. Here 1t was obliged to walt for nineteen days be- fore it could discharge it's cargo and get away
 Unloading was done by Russian sol. diers, which caused the officers and crew to have suspicious as to the cargo being designed for private use.
