ST. PETERSBURG, April 6.-The

Paul NJ Milukoff and NJ. Hessen as
delegates to the provincial convention
have been annulled by the election
commission on the ground that they
are under indictment in connection
with the suspension of the Svo Bodana-
boguj, of which paper they were
editors. The commission has replaced
them by conservative candidates, who
received scarcely tenth of the vote
cast for NM. Milukoff and Hessen. The
action of the authorities has aroused
a storm in radical circles because the
commission did not take exception to
their candidates before the balloting.
Besides, Professor Milukoff is one of
the prominent leaders of the Constitu-
tional Democrats and was expected to
be a power in parliament.
The rigorous press regulations an
nounced yesterday have been supple
mented by sweeping repressive meas
ure, making it a penitentiary offense
to spread false reports about govern
ment officials or troops which tend to
produce public excitement. The PEN
atty is multiplied if such reports re-

MOSCOW, April 6,-The political
prisoners with whom the local jails
are crowded have declared a "hunger
strike" Tefusing to partake of food

bring them to immediate trial or order

that Interior Minister Durnovo, in an
official order made public some time

with the charges which caused their
arrest. But the police also received in

Into a small room darted the man
with the metal.

A few seconds later the gum shoe

conveyor of the type metal had told
his assistant about the policeman who
was following him.
AS soon as the would-be sherlock

rushed to him and said, II will give
you $50 if you will keep this quiet"
That was sweet music in the ears of
the bobby. for as much as he loved
money he much preferred q position as
detective, and he considered that his
prisoner would confess If he was asked
to, so he said, "Now you just tell me
all about it, How you have been
making the queer and how you have
been showing it,"
Then the burly cop happened to look
into the next room, where he saw a
pile of the lead ingots such as he sus-
pected was metal used for counter

chine. He likewise remembered that
in his travels about town he had seen
ingots of the same sort in The Herald

As the dazed expression of one who
had been quickly and neatly bunked
crept over the face of the policeman,
the publishers of the Messenger saw
that he understood They burst into
laughter at the disappointed, unhappy
countenance of the seuth.
AS the officer started to descend the
stairs he muttered. "I wonder If the

INDIANS YEARN
FOR MERRY LIFE
CAPTIVE APACHES CHAFE AT
CONFINEMENT
Threaten to Flee Fort Sill if Not
Allowed to Join Wild West
Show-Geronimo Is
Favored
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, April 6.-The ma
ture of the trouble that has been
brewing between the Apache captives
at Fort Sill, incident to which is the
threat of the Indians to forcibly break
away from the post, is explained at
the war department as the result of
the refusal of the authorities to let
the Indians go on the road with a wild
west show. These Indians, under their
old chief, Geronimo have been techni-
Cally captives at the army post for
many years past But, in fact, they
have had almost as much liberty of
action as the Indians on the reserva-
tions. They We're not confined i'm close
quarters, but were only required to
stay within the military reservation
Many of the Indians were permitted to
go out on passes to visit other tribes
and for other purposes. They have
been getting along very well; so WE'LL
indeed, that when the army officers a
year ago proposed that the Indians be
turned over to the interior depart
ment and placed on a reservation as
other Indians are, strong protests were
made by some of the eastern humani-
tartan societies. who had taken pride
in the improvement of the Apache cap
tives.
Bad Habits Acquired
But last year many of the Indians
were permitted to join a wild west
show which travelled over the country.
When they came back to the post it
was found that many of them had
learned to gamble, and had picked up
other bad habits SO when applica-
tion was made this spring for per-
mission to provide another contingent
of Indians for a show the war de-
partment, to which the request was re-
ferred, upon the advice of the officers
at the post, declined to issue a permit.
There was one exception. and that was
in the case of Geronimo himself. He
had been well behaved, and the of
ficials decided that he might go with
the show. That made trouble, for the
other Indians felt that they had been
Disseminated against; hence they are
threatening to leave the post. 1t is not
believed they will do so, however for
they are aware that they would soon
be rounded up and returned and con-
fined in close quarters. and that is the
most dreaded of punishments to an
Indian.
