Georgia Syndicate Secures Four Yeati
Lease Of Florida Prisoners.
Officials of the Georgia prison de-
partment are much interested in the
fact that DR.. W. B. Handy Of Way;
cross, who, with W. NJ. Toomer, alsq.
Of that city, now controls the labor
OF 585 Georgia convicts. is the lead
ing member Of a syndicate composed
largely OF Georgians. which has just
secured four-year lease upon the en-
tire number of F1orida's convicts
amounting to between LOO and 1000.
For Florida's convicts the syndicate,
pays s207.7O a year each, including
men, women and boys, and will also
guard and care for them. This is said
to be the highest price now paid Tor,
any state conyicts.
Georgia. under the contracts made
last April, receives an average Of
$225.12 FOR each able-bodied convict,
while the women, boys and invaiids
are kept on the state farm at the
states expense. Besides Georgia has
to guard and furnish physicians for
her convicts. at an expense of about
$50 a year each. 1t is evident, there
fore, that Florida will get about $40
year each more for her convicts than
Georgia does. Florida followed Geor-
gia in making a new contract, az Ala.
bama did, and both have proflted we'll
by Georgia's experience.

HAMMERiNG RUSSIANS.
Oyama's Victorious Troops Deliver
Heavy Blows Against RetreatIns
s!avs in Vicinity Of mukden.

A st. Petersburg dispatch, under
date of March 3, is as follows: Ac-
cordins TO the latest information from
the front, the battle is now general
and of the most desperate character
The losses have been exceedingly
heavy on both sides during the pre-
liminary fighting. Although it is not
officially admitted, it is regarded as
certain that General Kuropatkin is dl'
recting all his efforts to the withdraw
al of his army to Tie Pass. 1t Is now
practically a rear guard action, but
General Kuropatkin's task OF extricat'
ing himself is proving very difficult
The Japanese have not only driven
in his left. but a column is already
said to have crossed the Hun river
east OF Fushian. At the same time,
the Japanese are pressing the Russian
center under cover of the fire Of their
siege guns, and General Kuropatkin
is gradually retiring before the Japan
csc advance. The efforts of the Jap
anese to turn the Russian right were
unsuccessful. but it has forced back
almost on a line with 3lukden. Two
Russian divisions we're dispatched to
head of the wide fanking column
advancing from the Lao river toward
Sinmintin, about 80 miles west Of
Mukden, but, according to the latest
advices, they were too late, the Japan
ese having entered the town Thurs
day. No official figures regarding the
losses are obtainable, but according
to unofficial reports, the Russian losses
up to Thursday night were nearly 1000
men.
General Rennenkampf particularly
distinguished himself during the fight
ing in the mountain passes southeast

UlTIMATUM BY STRIKERS
Renewal of Labor Outbreaks Threaten.
ed in St. Petersburg - Anarchy
Reiens in Moscow.

a St. Petersburg dispatch OF FEi-
day says: Black clouds are again low
ering over the industrial situation ii
Russia. The strike at Moscow has
been resumed on large scale, an
archy reigns in the Caucasus and at
ST.. Petersburg. the measures which
the government advanced to quiet dis
content and restore good relations be,
tween masters and men appear to
have failed, with the probability OF
causing the storm to break anew.
The labor delegates representing the
whole Of the industrial population OF
st. Petersburg and who were elected
to choose fifty members Of the Schid'
lovski reconciliation commission, met
again Thursday and reafirmed the
resolution adopted at the previous day
threatened, in case the demands are
not granted, not only to refuse to elect
labor representatives to the commits
sion, but to order a resumption OF
the general strike.
These demands are for the release
OF imprisoned workmen and freedom
from arrest; unhampered speech, full
publicity of meetings of the commits
sion and the abolition of The censor
ship.
A practical ultimatum was issued
calling for az immediate answer. There
is little expectation that the govern
ment will grant the conditions de-
manded The striRe already has as
sumed large proportions in St. Peters
burg. about $4,000 men being out.
Among those who struck Thursday
are the employees Of the St. Peters
burg shops Of the Warsaw railway
The strike has not yet extended tt
the trainmen, but the leaders may de
eide to order them out in order tc
paralyze one Of the most important
railroads in Russia.

DEADLY POISON IN MEDICINE.
Stuff Taken by Mrs. Stanford Heavily
charaed With Strychnine.


The receipt Thursday by the acting
chief of police Of San Francisco OF a
csblegram from High Sheriff Henry OF
Honolulu, stating that there were no
less than 662 grains of strychnine In
the bottle Of bicarbonate Of soda from
which Mrs. Jane Stanford took a dose
shortly before her death has aroused
the whole detective force Of San Fran.
cisco. and every effort is being mada
to discover who placed the poison IN
the medicine.
The bottle containing the bicarbon'
ate OF soda and it's death potion orig.
inally was purchased in Australia, but,
according to Miss Berner, Mrs. Stan
ford's private secretary, and the maid.
May Hunt, the bottle was reflled in
San Francisco at local drug store.
DR.. W. G.. Stevens. a medical ex'
pert, made this positive statement:
"Six hundred and sixty-two grains
OF strychnine easily would kill 662
persons. The maximum dose admins:
tered is only 1-15th of a grain, while
the average is 1-4oth Of a grain"
The apparent absence Of plausible
motive for such a crime battles Mrs.
Stanford's acquaintances. as well
as the detectives. Revenge or ami
mostly are not regarded as possible
fectors Of the question, and nothing
has been shown to indicate that a de.
sire to obtain an expected inheritance
could have prompted the deed.
Mrs. Stanford did not leave so large
an estate as was supposed, for during
her life she decided the property she
inherited from her husband to the
regents of Stanford university, to be
held in trust for that institution after
her death.

According to a special from San

at Stanford pharmacy at Palo Alto
two days before she left for Hawaii.
Detectives are at work on the clew
to find Who took the bottle to the
drug store, where the clerk filed the
