If, on the bases OF the suggestion made
in the presidents message. is likely to
by the Fifty fifth congress, not even
excepting the railway rate law, which
is expected to be on the statute books
before the end OF this session.
President Roosevelt did not expatf-
ate on the desirabihty Of the maximurn
and minimum tariff in his message, be-
cause, as am told, he had received as
surances from the leaders Of both
houses that they favored the idea.
Our foreign relations are involved to
such an extent that it was not deemed
wise to call general attention to this
subject thru the medium Of an extends
ed discussion in his word to congress,
Yet today Senator Lodge OF Massa-
chusetts, the acknowledged spokesman
OF the administration, introduced a
maximum and minimum tariff bill In
the senate. At the same time, was
told by one Of the ways and means
committee Of the house his colleagues
almost surely would adopt a similar
bill and urge its passage.
There Is vast significance In these
two statements. for II such a hill Is
passed direct reciprocity with any ma
ton will be Immediately possible, and
the great American commonwealth will
have in It's hands already fashioned a
club with which to beat down the COM
mercial hostility Of Germany and other
nations.

The Killing Of sakharoff.

London, Dec. THE ST. Petersburg
correspondent of the Daily Telegraph
in dispatch dated December 5, sent
by way Of Eydtkuhnen, East Prussia,
says:
Lieutenant General Sakharoff, for
mer minister Of war. was assassinated
today.
''The governor had deputed .Gener-
al Sakharoff to visit the province Of
Saratoff for the purpose Of quelling the
agrarian riots there.
"A woman belonging to the So called
flying columns of the revolutionary
movement called at the house Of the
governor of Saratoff at noon and ask
ed to see General Sakharoff.
"She fired three revolver shots at
the general. killing him on the spot.
"The tidings reached St Petersburg
tonight. Count Witte charged Lieuten-
ant General Rudiger, minister Of war.
with the task OF breaking the news to
Nine. Sakharon.
"The event has created profound
impression in st. Petersburg, owing
to fears that the revolutionists here
will follow the example thus set.
"The specter Of military dictator
ship, which has been looming on the
horizon, is slowly gaining consistency
and sharpness Of outline!
Count Witte's faith in the good
sense and political tact of the Russian
thinking classes, which recently was
as firm as a rock, is gradually weak
ening, and with 1t his hopes for the
carrying out Of the liberties promis-
ed in the emperors manifesto"

with a score Of 1,342 miles.
Tricky sspurts, dangerous falls down
steep inclines of the track, the FREE
quent appearance of rolls OF money
sent into the enclosure by spectators
who offered good sums as prizes to the
team who would outride their conpeti-
tors, and gain an extra lap, filled the
hours from midnight until daylight to-
day with excitement. Physicians who
are attending the riders say that thus
far loss In weight has been scarcely
appreciabe. There are still ten teams
in the ral,e. Antics, which made the
great endurance test appear like a
burlesque race, were dndulged In by
the riders during the forenoon hours.

Refugees Arriving in Large Numbers at
vienna-TeII Awful Tales.
Vienna, Dec. 7.-Dispatches received
from Lemberg, say large numbers OF
Russian refugees are coming in daily.
They all give exciting, terrified ac-
counts of occurrences in Russia. Many
refugees formerly wer men Of consid-
cradle wealth and standing, but they
left everything behind and now are all
most reduced to beggary. Refugees
declare that murders and rioting con-
tinue at Kieff. Telegraph operators
at Czernowitz say the governor Of
Odessa has posted notices in the
streets, to the effect that the slightest
disturbances will Immediately be put
down with rifles. Large numbers Of
troops are stationed In and around
odessa. An official statement says
that 5000 persons have been killed at
Odessa since the beginning of the
troubles. The people Of Moscow and
Nikoladieff are suffering from lack of
water, bread, light and meat. Almost
all the factories and Jewish homes in
Rostoff have been destroyed.

ST. Petersburg. Dec. 7.--[via Eydtk-
uhnenl-T news OF the assassination
of Lieutenant General Sakharoff, for
mer minister OF war, who was shot in
the governors palace at Saratoff, Tues
day, had been preceded by the most
horrible stories of the manner In
which Sakharoff had been repressing
the agrarian disorders. He corralled
the peasants with the Cossacks and
then had them beaten with the soldiers
whips. The assassin OF Sakharoff has
not been identified. When arrested
the woman who committed the crime
declared she had executed the decree
of the terrorist section Of the social
revolutionists. The following is a
description of Sakharoff's arrival at
Havoanschins one Of the villages In
the province Of Saratoff:
He came with Cossacks and artill-
cry. The peasants were surrounded
by Cossacks and Sakharoff addressed
them. demanding they surrender their
leaders The village elder replied, but
gave the general no information. The
elder was Immediately beaten until he
lost Inconsistencies. Sakharoff then
retired to the court house. leaving. the
peasants at the mercies Of the Cos
sacks, most Of whom were drunk, and
they began torturing the peasants,
pulling out their hair and boards and
even tearing pieces Of flesh from their
faces Thirty-three peasants were
thus maltreated."

According to the Iowa Educational
Directory issued today from the office
Of the state superintendent, there are
242 private, denominational and higher
educational institutions in the state OF
Iowa. There are four schools In the
state that teach domestic science.
These are at Burlington, Clinton, Day-
export and East Des Moines. The 242
institutions include parochial schools
and colleges and business schools and
institutions Of all kinds other than the
public and state schools. The educa-
tional directory gives some interesting
information. For instance the total
enrolment in 1901 was 562,662 and for
1906 1t is 550,376. There has been
steady decrease in the total enroll
ment till this year which is a little
above that Of last year and the year
before. In 1902 the enrolment was
56017s, in 1903 550,202 and in 1904 545,-
94O The falling off in the census may
account for the falling off in the total
enrolment in the public schools of the
state. a variance in the school CEN
sus is also shown with the state CEN
sus. There is shown In the directory
which is based on the reports OF
school officials, school census of
1882 and in the census a report Of
749,612 This is partly accounted for
by the claim that many Of the direc-
tors Of country districts are In the
habit of not taking school census
but Of reporting from memory the
number of persons of school age. They
have to guess at the ages and are lia-
BILE to make mistakes, at both limits
and hence the report Is Inaccurate
This year for the first time the state
superintendent asked for the number
of scholars enrolled before the same,
year In other schools. The number re.s
ported Is 10,039, which makes the ne'l
enrolment in the public schools Of the.
state 540,8a7.

Would Pay Salaries.
The report says that the weakest
feature of the present system OF ex-
aninations is that the examiners are
paid by fees instead of salaries. IL
says examiners should be paid a per
diem for the days actually ut work
and an allowance for travelling ex-
penses and subsistence. The, comp
troller complains that just as an ex-
aminer gets to know his district well
and becomes really efficient, he is
hired by some bank looking for an Of
lf1cer. He sees no way altogether to
prevent this, but thinks the salaries
should be sufficient to keep good men
IN the service. He also f;lvors the
hiring OF an assistant or clerk to aid
the examiner in making the examina-
tions of banks
Growth Of Banking.
From returns made to this office or,
or about June 80, 1902. 1t appears that
there We're in operation 4.535 national
banking associa tions, with capital OF
$70l, ssO,554 ard Individual deposits Of
$3,G9S. .ST5, 772, and also 1889 incorpor-
ated state and private balrlks, with
capital and deposits Of $499, ,621.-
20S and S6,005.S47, ,214, respectively. The
ron reporting banks to the number OF
1882 had capital and deposits estimat-
ed at S13S,54s,654 and $47s,592,792, re-
spectively, or an aggregate of 1876
banks and banking institutions, with
capital of 81, $40, ,16o,416 and deposits OF
$9,5s3,315, IT'S. The first estimate made
by this office as to the number, ETC., of
nonreporting banks, published in 1898,
was for the year 1902. From returns
on or about June 30, 1905, 1t Is shown
that the number of national banks has
increased during the past three years
to 5,66s, with capital OF s791, ,567 ,23d and
deposits of s3,7S3.658, ,494. The number
OF state and private banks reporting
and nonreporting are now 14,242, with
capital of $74s, 2s3,149 and deposits ag-
gregating IS. .e02 662, ,s22. The total
number Of national, state. and private
banks in the United States and island
possessions is therefore 19.s1O. with
aggregate capital OF 1883. .S30.3s0 and
individual deposits OF fs11 7se.321. BIG.
The number of national banks In active
operation has Increased since 1902 by
25 per cent, and the figures presented
indicate that banks other than national
have Increased at the rate Of about ~
per cent during this period.

NO CHARGE AGAINST eooDNow

With President on Chinese Boy

colt. "A
Washington, Dec. IAN authorita-
tive statement ii made at the state de-
partment that j. III. Brown, Of Port
land, Ore. who saw the president yes
terday ana discussed the Chinese boy
colt, has not made any charges against
John Goodnow, former consul general
at Shanghai, as being a promoter OF or
In other ways connected with, the boy
.cott to the disadvantage 6 American
interests.
A further statement is made that II
Brown had made such charges they
would not have been considered. as
Mr.. Goodnow is not now connected
with the government in any way. In
this connection. 1t was said today, that
at the time the boycott was In full
swing unofficial charges were made to
the state department that Mr.. Good
now was one of those who conceived
1T and that he was energetic In pushing
1t among the Chinese. It cannot be
said that the department took cogni-
zance Of these charges, but the story
is that Mr.. Goodnow replied to them,
denying that he had anything to do
with them, and presenting documen-
tary evidence OF his connection with
certain American business houses do
ing business in China, and showing
that IL the boycott were enforced It
would mean the total loss Of business
to himself. This statement could not
be verified, and, in fact, officers OF the
department, who were asked about It.
declared they had not heard 1t.
Department officials, with whom Mr..
Brown has talked, say that he Is urg-
ing reforms in the consular service In
China, particularly with reference to
consular courts and the imposition Of
certain fees.
