PREPARE FOR
THE CONFLICT
CAR DlSSOl.VES PARLIAMENT
AND PUTS RUSSIA BACK
TWO YEARS.

first experience in parliamentary gov
eminent came to an ignominiOus end
this morning with the PRONUNCIATION
of two imperial ukases. the first dis.
solving the present parliament and
providing for the convocation of its
six months hence. and the second pro-
claiming the capital of Russia and the
surrounding province TO be in a state
of security. which is only infinitesi-
mally different from full martial law
This measure of safety is TO provide
for the outbursts which undoubtedly
will be provoked by this daring meas
ure. 1t is now but step to dictator
ship.
The text of the two ukases. both of
which are addressed. in the stereotyp
follows:
According to paragraph los of the
fundamental law. We order the i'm.

the time for the convocation of the
newly elected parliament for March

take proper measures to place this in

"Peterhof, July 81. 1906"
The text of the second ukase fol-
lows:
In consideration of a report of the
council of ministers, presented to us,
regarding the necessity in the future
for the preservation of order and pub
lie safety in the city and province of
St. Petersburg. we consider it neces-
sary to declare in the above city and
province, instead of the state of re-
enforced security which now prevails
there. state of extraordinary secur-
ity. The project of the city and the
governors of the province are intrust-
ed with the rights thereunto appertain-

Montreal Took the Second
Game of the Series By
Hard Hitting
STILL IN FIRST PLACE
BUFFALO WAS BEATEN BY BAL
TIMORE, NEWARK WON FROM
ROCHESTER, AND PROVIDENCE
FROM TORONTO.

The Skeeters We're badly wailoped by
the Royals yesterday after it looked as
though they had the game cinched. They
had scored brace of runs in the second
inning and followed this up with another
in the third. Moskimon was in the box
for the Skeeters and up to the fifth in
ming had shut the Royals out. Then the
visitors got busy with the stick. Moski-
mon lost his nerve. He was hit for four
safeties and gave two passes to first,
forcing the third run over the plate. This
tied the score. Mccain took the slab in
the sixth and for a couple of innings he
did splendid work. After that he, too,
went up in the air He was hit twice
and gave two bases on balls. These
with the aid of an error, gave the Royals
four runs. Pappalau, who was ON the
slab for Montreal, didn't allow the Skeet-
ers a hit in the last five innings They
hit him twice in the second and the two
hits, with a base on balls and sacrifice,
netted them two runs and two more hits
and sacrifice, gave them the tally in
the third.

Board of Health Prepares to
Inspect the Jersey City
County Slaughter Houses
COUNTY BOARD MAY AID
IT is SAID THE ESTABLISH
MENTs HERE ARE NOT AS BAD
AS THE SENSATIONAL AC-
COUNTS IN THE NEW YORK
PAPERS DECLARE.

The local Board of Health is about to
begin an inspection of the slaughter
houses in the city. Hitherto it has been
the duty of the Board to care only for
the sanitary condition of the slaughter
houses The inspection of the cattle and
meat is done by Government inspectors.
The Board issues a yearly permit to peo-
pie who wish to maintain a slaughter
house. This permit can be called in at
any time.
The County Health Board may also
take hand.
The agitation over the condition of the
slaughter houses in Paekintown, a suburb
of Chicago, which has aroused the ma
ton, has reached here and, in fact, has
affected the meat industry of even this
city. Jersey City is the main gate
through which the food supplies reach
New York from the west and south
There are numerous slaughter houses in
Jersey City, but most of these are mod
els. No slaughter house is a parlor The
conditions of the Jersey City slaughter
houses are greatly exaggerated in the
New York papers. But there as estab-
lishments in the county which any one
who enters and watches the process of
preparing what appears appetizing NOR
sels of meat, would destroy his appetite
for certain kinds, and cause him to es-
chew (no pun that kind of meat.
Most of these places are located on the
meadows in the vicinity of Secaucus.
They are run by men known as "swill-
mongers.'' Some hotels and restaurants
in New York dispose of their garbage to
feeding and fattening concerns in that
locality. There are numerous farms and
stables where lean kline, sickly and Grip
pied sheep, calves suffering with lung af-
fections and fabby pigs are fed up into
something in the semblance of what they
should be. The nourishment which as
sists in the fattening process consists OF
ssswills'' from the houses and hotels OF
New York and New Jersey towns. a
miscellaneous assortment of garbage in
various stages of putrefaction is put be
fore the wretched animals. They at first
refuse to eat it, but hunger drives them
to nibble at the less poisonous bits and
they gradually grow accustomed to it
They grow fat but diseased before they
led to slaughter. Some of these places
are owned by the largest beef concerns
These swilleries supply much of the
meat consumed by Jersey City, New
York and other surrounding cities.
A man whose business takes him into
local slaughter houses declared yesterday
that the conditions prevailing wer a:
bad as those at Chicago. AS to inspect
ors. he declared he had never seen one
He said there were cattle killed in Hud
son County that were not fit to feed t
wild animals He also said that condl
tfons are worse since the exposure IL
Chicago on account of SO many sick ant
diseased animals being shipped here.

MENTIONED

Mayor Pagan gave the liquor dealers
a surprise last night when he succeeded
in having the license fee raised from
$3.50 to $780, While it was known that
the Mayor was making every effort to
get the Excise Commissioners to agree
to his proposition the liquor dealers felt
confident that he would not carry his
point. They had the promise of Commits
sioners O'Brien and Pfngsten that un-
der 10 circumstances would they vote
for the Increased rate. Without the vote
of one or the other of these Commission
ers The Mayor was powerless. There
was lot of wire pulling in and around
the City Hall all of yesterday and as
the day advanced all sorts of rumors
were in circulation. Mayor Fagan's
friends were sure he would win out and
the opponents of the increased rate
were just as certain that he would not
be able to change the views of either of
the objecting Commissioners.

general grand council and presented a
draft of constitution. which was adopt
ed. President Drummond. Of Portland,
Me, was elected provisional general
grand master of the Provisional General
Grand Council.
The first trienniaI was held in San
Francisco in 1888, and triennally there
after with one exception. In 1886 the
triennialassembled in Washington, and
in Atlanta. These were the years of the
grand encampment of Knights Templars
and it was decided in 1889 to change the
date to triennial that it might be held
the year previous to the grand encamp-
ment to avoid conflict and the conse-
quent lessening of interest in the gem
eral grand council. The next trienniaI,
therefore, assembled in Minneapolis in
1891. In turn the triennial was held in
1894, in Baltimore in 1897, in Cincinnati
in 1900 and in Little Rock in 1903. In
recent years the general grand councils
and the general grand chapter have he'd
their triennial together, so closely are
they associated historically and essen
tally.

When the Excise Board convened it
soon became evident that the Mayor had
the upper hand. Commissioner Pfing-
stem was not in his seat. The fact was
he was NO longer member of the Board.
He had forwarded to the Mayor his res
jgnation and the Mayor had promptly
filled the vacancy by naming his messea-
ger, John Bumsted, as Mr.. Pingsten's
successor. Whether Mr.. Pingsten re-
signed of his own account, or whether
the Mayor forced him to quit because of
his attitude was not definitely ascertain
ed. The impression prevailed that the
Hudson City Commissioner who had re-
peatedly declared that he would vote
against the proposed increase, had been
given to understand that in opposing the
Mayors wishes he had forfeited his right
to a seat in the Board. 1t had been
charged that Mayor Pagan had Mr..
Pfngsten's undated resignation IN his
desk for use in such an emergency as
had arisen, but this was denied by Mr..
Pfngsten.

There is belief that the saloon keep
ers will take some action to thwart if
possible the Mayors move. The new
Excise Board will take office in the mid
die of June, and movement is on foot
to have every saloon keeper refrain from
taking out license under the present
Board. That would mean that every sa-
loon in the city would be closed for at
least two weeks. Whether this action
will be taken depends upon what encour-
agement is given the liquor dealers that
the new Board will place the fee at $500
which is the minimum rate under the
new law.
The Jersey City news., 1906-06-09

Whether the charge was true or not,
the fact remains that Mr.. Pfngsten's
resignation was as unexpected by his
friends as was the Mayors recent change
of attitude toward the liquor dealers,
many of whom were among his most ar
dent supporters. With Mr.. Pfingsten out
and Mr. Bumsted in, the Mayor had no
difficulty in putting through the resolu-
tion raising the fee to $500. Commits
sioner O'Brien, as was expected, voted
against it. There was no discussion over
the resolution, and owing to the quiet
way in which the Mayor perfected his
plans the Boards action did not cause
any undue excitement. The few liquor
dealers who attended the meeting were
SO taken by surprise that they hardly
knew what to do or say.

The news spread like wildfire and soon
every saloon keeper in the city was dis
cussing the effect of the increased rate.
That the Mayors move was prompted
by political conditions not even the Fa-
ganites would deny. This was the May
or's way of getting even with the brew
ers and saloon interests for aiding in the
passage of the law that abolshes his Ex-
else Board.

Don't Prunc!

Most amateurs worry themselves
over what they consider the intricate
problem Of pruning. My advice is
simply this Don't prune! Avoid
the annual trimming that ruins so
many Of our gardens There are
more shrubs ruined by the pruning
mania than by any other one cause
and the worst part Of 1t all is that
the damage is suffered by Just those
people who would appreciate having
few good shrubs. after the thin
ming out of surplus specimens the
only attention that the shrubbery
needs is thinning out OF the old
growth to make room for the new
seasons wood and OF course the re-
moval of any dead or dying branches.
Remember that shrubs do not need
the attention of the primer to make
them grow; pruning is only meant
to make the garden look heater And
remember this golden rule: "Prune
after Towering" This means that a
late Towering shrub like the hydran-
gea can be pruned in the spring be-
cause the flowers are produced on the
growths that it will make in the sum
mer. but it is just as satisfactory to
prune It i'm the winter time. The
early Towering shrubs that flower on
the growths of the previous season
may be pruned in the spring, but not
until after they have done towering.
Therefore spireas, ltlacs, deutzias,
golden bells, and such like must not
be cut back If YOU want TO have flow
ers the same season. They will in
all probability require some reduc-
ton of the top, but it must be done
by reducing the number of the
growths, rather than by shortening.
Leonard Barron, in Garden Mag
Rzine.
