AS a remedy for this evil Of conflicting,
ineffective, and yet burdensome regulations
there has been for many yeaEs a wide
spreadidemand for federal supervision. The
congress has already recognized that In

bureau of corporations It authorized 1t to
publish, and supply useful information con

feeting Zemstvos.
St. Petersburg, May 25.-The gov
ernment has now taken formal meas
ares to prevent the zemstvos, doumas
and other provincial and district insti-
buttons from indulging in unrestricted
1ebate and adopting resolutions on the
'ubject OF a change in the form Of
government. Interior Minister Bouli-
gan has issued a circular declaring
that such discussions do not come
within the scope of the imperial ukase
issued March granting the people
freedom to petition the emperor
through the committee of ministers on
Ill matters relating to their general
welfare. The ruling, in effect, is that
his privilege only applies to the peo-
pie as individuals and that organized
institutions must confine themselves
10 questions within their competency.
The duty of enforcing this inhibition
Is imposed on the presiding officers,
who will be amenpble to prosecution
for permitting infractions. The circu-
lar was plainly designed to put an end
TO the political agitation which has
been openly in progress in the zemst-
vos and doumas throughout the EN-.
pire.

Ross Valley, Cal, May 25-Willian
Stephens during the day murdered his
wife, shot his five children, three OF
whom died instantly, attempted to
murder passing milkman and then
committed suicide.
Stephens, who was thirty-five years
of age, was formerly book agent, but
of late was said to be connected with
a rubber goods house of San Francisco.
Shortly before noon Stephens emerged
from the house, revolver in hand, and
fred upon passing milkman. The
milkman whipped up his horses and
Stephens pursued him for 200 yards,
firing as he ran. Stephens then halted
in the roadway, placed the revolver to
his breast and discharged the weapon.
When neighbors and officers entered
the home of Stephens they came upon
a shocking scene. The members Of
the family, each with a revolver wound
in the head, were found in their beds.
The wife and three of the children
were dead and it is believed that the
two surviving children cannot live.
The children are from one to eleven

Chicago, MAJ 25.-I can see no
prospects within the next forty-eight
hours for a settlement of the strike -
said prominent labor leader tonight.
He added: 1--WE certainly are not anx-
ious to create any further disturbance
on the streets of Chicago and if the
civil authorities find it necessary to
protect noc-union drivers, to call the
troops, We will be glad to see it done.
We will know the troops will not be
used on "struck" house wagons to
show the drivers the way and help
them deliver parcels. They will main
tain order in the streets and their
presence will prevent rioters who are
not connected with the unions from
making trouble which will be charged
against u.s.
As to the events of the day, it may
be said the teamsters strike has
spread but little, about thirty more
lumber drivers going out. There were
few disturbances.

LOCKED OUT BY EMPLOYERS.
About Twelve Thousand Wori<nen Idle
in New York City.

New York, May 25-Between 10000
and 10000 men belonging to the Rock
mems and Excavators' union have been
locked out by the Contractors Pro-
!ective association in this city 1t is
expected that the lockout shortly will
be extended to the rest of $4,000 men,
bers of the union. Workmen already
locked out were employed on more
than 100 contracts in various parts of
the city.
For several weeks the men have
been threatening to strike for various
concessions and the contractors finally
decided to force matters, apparently
with the object of putting an end to
the union. Their decision to lock out
the diggers came when the Transfers
union agreed to stand by an agreement
they have with the association. The
lockout will stop work for a time on
hundreds of buildings in the city
where excavating is just beginning,
but it will have no effect on buildings
where work is gone beyond the found
alton stage.
