st. Petersburg, March 15.--12;30 a. ma
bold way out of the perplexities of the
present situation has been suggested.
namely. that Emperor Nicholas travel in
state to the ancient capital of Moscow,
summon the mobiles and leading members
of the zemstvos around him in the sacred
precincts of the Kremlin. frankly lay the
situation before them, publicly pledge his
word for the execution of the projected
reforms and make stirring personal ap-
peal through them to the people to loyal
ly rally to the support of the Russian
arms and cooperate in prosecuting tho
war to successful termination.

Such an appeal from the sovereign.
undoubtedly would have a powerful eff
feet throughout the country and for the
dynasty would have an advantage over
the plan of submitting the question of
peace or war to the zemsky sober, which
some of the newspapers are again urg-
ing.
The Novoe Trremya, In strong article
headed Precious Moments Lost" re-
views the situation leading up to the
defeat of the army In Manchuria, the
grave nature of the internal tragedy at
Moscow, the bloody events at Warsaw,
Riga and Baku, the series of attempts
upon individual representatives of the
civil and military authority, and the in
creasing boldness of the claims OF the
nom n-Russian provinces. some of which
are threatening and others even making
attempts at armed uprisings.
Finland, the Novoe Vreyma declares is
arming; Jews everywhere are tanning
the flames of revolution, and the danger
OF the agrarian movement is increasing.
1he article concludes:
There is no time to waste. The re-
script is a fortnight OLE, and nothing

K. C. SOUTHERN HAS
CHANGED OWNERS
Holland Stockholders Lose Control
and Road lie Now Owned
BY Americans.

Kansas City, March 14.-The Holland
stockholders have lost control of the
Kansas City Southern railroad. according
to the Star.
While today was the date set legally
for the annual meeting of the stockhold-
ers of the railroad, and while practically
the entire outstanding stock was repre-
ing held in the offices of the company
here, adjournment was taken until May
II. The Star says:
..It is now asserted that the Dutch
stockholders have lost control of the
railroad. During the iecent furry in the
ers of stock unloaded, and thus passed
the control of the road into American
hands.
This comes as a surprise to many
who had believed that with the expiration
of the voting trust, the Dutch stock
holders would contest for the absolute
control of the line 1t is still a matter
of conjecture as to what interests will
control. 1t is said that the Dutch stock
holders cannot control for the reason that
they recently disposed of several million
dollars worth of stock to various inter-
ests in the United States. The interests
that have been active in the purchase of
stock include the Gates combination, the
Rock Island interests. the Hartman
clique and. 1t is said that Edward Haw-
ley had made large purchases of the
stock. With the expiration of the voting
trust the actual ownership of the prop
erty will develop.
1T is practically certain that If the
Hartman interests retain control that the
line win be operated with the Chicago and
Alton, and the Union Pacific systems.

RUSSIA'S BEST FRIEND
HAS NOW DESERTED HER

London, March 15.-rhe revolt of the
French bankers is considered by the Lon
don newspapers as the most hopeful and
important news of the day, promising an
early conclusion of peace between Russia
and Japan. Apparently the proposed loan
has not been absolutely refused, but only
postponed
This, however, is regarded here as be-
ing tantamout to refusal and is ex-
pected to speak louder to the Russian
war party even than Kuropatkin's reverse
at Mukden. 1t is the general belief that
by the death of M. Germaine, the late
governor of the Credit Lyonnaise Rus
sia lost her strongest financial friend in

TERRIFIC STORM
SWEEPS The COAST
Property Loss Will Reach
Thousands of Dollars
RAILROADS SUFFER MUCH
Unusual Electrical Phenomena Attend
til: Storm and Rainfall In Los
Angeles Is Nearly
Four inches.
SUFFER MUCH

Los Angeles, Cal. March 14-Today
dawned clear and cool in Los Angeles
and 1t is apparent that the great storm
which has ragged almost necessarily along
the southern coast for the past IS hours
is over, AS far as has been learned but
one lift has been lost as a result of the
storm, that of a laborer. who was drown
ed near cajon Pass. The total damage
scattered over a wide stretch Of territory,
is conservatively estimated at an amount
in excess of half million dollars
This includes the damage to streets.
buildings, bridges and other property In
this city, the loss to the steam and elec-
trio railways and the damage to wharves.
piers and shipping all along the coast.
The total of rain here for the storm.
measures 3.52 inches. according to the gov
ernment rain gauge, but at other points
in the storm belt this amount will be
greatly exceeded approaching In some
places as high as $40 inches.
Unusual Phenomena Shown.
The storm was accompanied by most
unusual phenomena, in the shape of a
strong southeasterly gale. continuous
rolls of heavy thunder flashes OF light
ming and occasional showers of hail. The
wind. which at times attained a velocity
of 63 miles an hour. wrought grea. dam
age along the coast. Telegraph and tele-
phone wires were blown to the ground
in many places. and for hours Los An
geles was practically isolated from the
outside world.
The worst damage occurring to the city
as a result of the ravages of the storm
was the collapse of the Seventh street
bridge across the Los Angeles river,
where fourteen people were carried down
Into the flood, and five of them includ-
ing one woman, seriously hurt 1t was
at first reported that two men had lost
their lives in the accident, but so far
no one has been reported missing.
W.shouts on Railroads.
On the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe
railroads there occurred extensive wash
outs that tied up all traffic In both direc-
tions for more than thlrty-sx hours.
The Southern Pacific coast line to San
Francisco was washed out In three or
four places in long stretches, and at least
one large trestle carried out. Saturdays 8
southbound trains have not arrived here,
but 1t is expected that the line will be
temporarily repaired tomorrow and traf-
fie resumed
The Southern Pacific line to the east
has remained undamaged, and trains
proceeding slowly have been kept NOV
irg in both directions. The Santa Fe
was washed out between San Bcrnardino
and Barstow in half a dozen places In
stretches of half a mile in length.
The worst damage suffered was at
Cajon Pass, where a landslide occurred
that buried the roadped beneath tons
OF earth
At the various seacoast towns the dam
age from wind and waves will foot up
In the neighborhood of 100000.
