DECIDE NOT TO ORDER A GEN.
ERAL STRIKE THROUGHOUT
RUSSIA AT PRESENT.
WILL PATIENTLY B:DE THEIR TIME.
LEADERS ADVISE FOLLOWERS TO
EQUIP THEMSELVES FOR AN
ARMED UPRISING.

st. Petersburg, Dec. II, via Eydt-
kuhnen, East Prussia, Dec. 13.-Cau-
ton having prevailed over the fury
aroused by the arrest of the strike
leaders the workmen's council has re-
jected the proposition to order a gem
eral strike at present as untimely and
has decided that the wOrkmen should
3ide their time patiently until all the
preparations are complete. The coun.
Gil realized the weakness and unpre-
paredness Of the workmen for gen
eral conflict and had been informed
that the railroad men had already de-
cided against strike.
The labor service delegates not un-
der arrest held a secret meeting in
the hall Of the Economic society at an
early hour this morning, declined to
accept the challenge of the. govern
ment and adopted resolution against
the arrest of M. Krustaleff, the presi-
dent of the executive committee of
the workmen's council, and the other
st. Petersburg leaders, which, it was
pointed out, was only of local impor-
tance and did not furnish cause for
general strike The resolution, how
ever, declared that it was the sacred
duty of all workmen to carry on the
work begun by the arrested leaders OF
eQuipping and preparing the fighting
legions of workmen for an armed up
rising.
The sentiment of the workmen's
delegates, which was extremely de-
pressed, has been somewhat raised by
the receipt of dispatch from Moscow
claiming that the revolutionary pro-
paganda has finally taken root among
the Cossacks, the last hope of the re-
action. The Third squadron of the
First regiment of Don Cossacks is re-
ported to have held a meeting and to
have drawn up service demands,
claiming that the men are fed like
dogs and shabbily clothed The gov
ernment officials were forced to de-
prive the soldiers of their rifles and
lances. This is the first sign OF dis
affection on the part Of the Cossacks.
The post and telegraph situation is
steadily ameliorating, though no wires
are working to points outside of Rus
sia and telegraphic communication
with the interior is very faulty.

TRUST TRUST fktGG1i5kl BLOWN UP
TOBACCO PLANT At ELkToN, KY.
COMPLETELY DESTROYED
-:
BY DYNAMITERs.

Louisville, Dec. IA special from
E1kton, KY, says:
'ss The tobacco factory here owned by
Mr.. s. B. M. Penyck and operated for
the so-called tobacco trust by the
American Snuff company, was blown
up by dynamite early in the day and
completely wrecked. There was no
loss OF life. Insurance on the plant
was cancelled a few days ago owing
to the excitement caused by the tac-
tics of some tobacco growers. Several
houses in the vicinity were damaged,
as were the depot and four or fve
passenger coaches on siding.
The deed is thought to have been
committed by persons friendly to the
Dark Tobacco Growers association,
but the latter has severely condemned
such action.
A few days ago the representative
of the American Tobacco company at
this point received notice not to re-
ceive any more tobacco from people
favoring the trust, but he paid no at
tentiOn to it.
It is learned that a tobacco factory
at Trenton, Ky, controlled by Italian
contractors, was burned several nights
ago. The fire is thought to be tbs
result of incendiarism.

PRELIMINARY sKiRMIsH in. BEEF,
TRUST CASES BEGINS IN
FEDERAL COURT,
JURY TO SETTLE IMMUNITY QUESTION
THAT DEFENDANTS STAND
TRIAL JOINTLY.

Chicago, Dec. 13.-Attended by an
imposing array of legal talent and
crowds of spectators the last prelim-
mary to the formal trial of the beef
trust cases began here during the
day before Judge j. Otis Humphrey
in the United States court. The issues
to be tried were on ten special pleas
raised by the packers and which must
be settled by jury trial before action
is taken on the indictments returned
by the federal grand jury.
The case had scarcely opened be-
fore the government and the defense
clashed in a mild way: Attorney John
S. Miller, acting for the packers, de-
manded without qualifications that the
charges against Samuel A. McRoberts
of Armour & Co., one of the defend
ants, be dismissed at once
District Attorney G. B. Morrison,
for the government, asked for one
days time in which to consider the
matter. He admitted that Mr.. Nc
Roberts had testified before the grand
jury which returned the indictments.
Attorney Miller declared that in view
Of that fact, although the defendant
had entered special pleas, under the
law 'McRoberts must be discharged
Judge Humphrey said that he under
stood the law to be as stated as Mr.
Miller, whereupon the district attor-
ney entered nolle proseQui dismiss
ing the case against McRoberts.
Commissioner Garfield Present.
James r. Garfield, commissioner of
corporations, upon whose testimony
much of the governments case de-
pends, was among those in the court
room. He was subpoenaed to tell
what he did while investigating the
beef industry and whether under that
investigation the present defendants
were promised immunity in this case.
The attorneys for the defendants
demanded for their clients a separate
Morrison objected. Attorney Miller
spoke at length on the right of the de-
PENDANTS to separate trials and was
finally interrupted by Judge Hum
phrey, who asked:
I'm the case of two postoffice bur-
glars we would require them to stand
trial together, would we not?"
"Yes, your honor" replied Mr. Mil
ler ss.
Other attorneys for the packers
made lengthy arguments for separate
trials and District Attorney Morrison
objected for the government.
The debates finally subsidized into
conference and it was agreed that all
the defendants would stand trial to-
gether, the defense announcing that
1t had no desire to prolong the trial
Indefinitely.

FREIGHT TRAFFIC SUSPENDED.
Russian Railroads Unable to Handle
Consignments.

Berlin, Dec. 13.-The government
railway administration announces that
freight traffic with Russia is suspend
ed over a number of lines. The Off
cial explanation of this order to re-
fuse freight destined for points on the
lines mentioned, which include most
Of those in Russia, is that the order
embodies notifications received from
Russia during several days that
freight on this or that line could not
be handled. General disorder is the
general reason. Outside of the rail
way administration it is believed that
the suspension of freight traffic is so
large in parts of Russia as to serious
ly affect the economic conditions.
With ST. Petersburg and Southern
Russia freight is handled almost as
usual.

ASKS FOR RECONSIDERATION.
Porte's Reply to Note of Powers Re-

Consta1tinople, Dec. Is. - The
porte's reply to the note of the six
powers on the subject of Macedonia,
presented to Baron Won Calice, the
Austro-Hungarian ambassador, Mon
day evening, asks for .reconsidera-
tion of some of the notifications pro-
posed by Turkey, which were reject
ed by the ambassadors in their col
lective note presented Dec. 8.
The porte's reply, however, is
couched in such terms that it is re-
garded as being a virtual acceptance
of the powers demands and as set
tlement of the dispute regarding the
financial administration of Macedonia
A joint Turko-Persian commission
has been appointed to arrange the
frontier dispute if possible with the
view of averting conflict.

Bowen VS.. .Loomis is the style of a
promising scandal soon 10 be develop
ed in the department of state at Wash
ington.
AS me case deals with a South
American republic il ought to prove
extremely popular since the president
and the United States senate have
given these republics such a vast
amount of advertising.
In fact all eyes-those of Europe as
well as those CT America-are turned
toward the bolnbastie and volcanic lit
tie countries to the south of US, and
euriouSly inclined will have rich
feast if the department OF state will
let Mr. Bowen and ex-Minister Locmis
tell all they know about the way
things are done in Venezuela.
1t IS humiliating fact that South
Americans have not given as much
respect to this nation as they are in
the habit of, according to the larger
countries Of Europe They are ready
enough to dodge behind Uncle Sans
coattails TO escape chaStisement from
old world governments, but in the es-
tlmation of the South American the
rights of the citizen of the United
States are not to be considered as in
dhe same plane with those Of the Ger
man or the Englisnman.
This discrimination against the citi-
zen OF this country and the compare
tive estimate in which he is held has
been accounted for in many ways. One
OF the reasons given is The absence of
formality associated with consular CT.
fees OF the United States and the
familiarity engendered by permitting
our representative TO these countries
10 engage in commercial pursuits with
the people to whom they are accredit-
ed. Business, like politics, makes
compromises. Doubtless the exigen-
cies of trade in South America have
developed some interesting, but pecu.
liar situations and If light could be
turned upon some of these it is pos
sible more than one representative If
this country would be found playing a
star role.
Minister Bowen's accusations against
Mr.. Loomis may take a turn in this
direction. If so, it is possible that the
country may receive a more compre
hensive and understanding conception
of South American mysteries.

SUNDAY BASEBALL
In MOBILE.

Mobile is somewhat stirred up over
the question Of Sunday baseball,
which is prohibited by law, and nu-
merous expedients have been resorted
to for the purpose of keeping within
the letter of the law while violating the
spirit thereof The Mobile Herald
takes a sensible view of the matter,
which it discusses as follows:
The Herald is not given to magnify
ing a danger or to trembling at imagin-
ed danger But in the deliberate,
open, defiant violation of the law by
the Sunday baseballists we see a real
and very grave danger
Now, let us be fully understood:
We do not disapprove of rational and
reasonable Sunday amusement and We
regard baseball, properly conducted
as both reasonable and rational. But
the people of the state through their
representatives at Montgomery have
declared otherwise; and so over
whelming was the disapproval that
the talented gentlemen who repre-
scented Mobile county in that body did
the law was passed.
Now this law stands to-day along
side the laws against murder and
theft, and bribery, and perjury, and
Is of equal force with these where the
ofhcers are faithful in the discharge of
their duties. If this law can be lodged
by a subterfuge that is an insult TO
Intelligence, then the laws against
gambling of all kinds may be dodgel;
II this law can be annulled because the
local talent disapproves it, then any
law offensive 20 the community may
be wiped of the statute books. APP
ply such a principle to the case OF
Breathitt county, Kentucky, or to the
state of Utah and you dare not ap-
prove it.
The real danger then is that the
open violation of this particular law
will be followed by efforts to re-es-
tablisn lotteries under guise of inno-
, cent games. and to revive the old nui-
sance Of coupons and like offenses
