Cincinnati and the other clubs are a lot of poltroons and dogs and eke out their existence solely through the receipts on the New York grounds and therefore must stand by and see the New York club inyalidate the constitution of the National League at will.

.AGRARIAN PROGRAM
REAL INTENTION or THE RUSSIAN

Expects to Rally Not Only all Landed In- sf terests but Masses of Peasantry by Giving Immediate
 Relief.

St. Petersburg. Aug. 1.-The real intention of the eovernment when 1t dissolved the lower house of parliament as revealed by a member of the cabinet to the Associated Press this afternoon shows that Premier Stolypin at least intends to pursue and hold an affirmative policy amounting to virtual " a determination on the part of the ad- mfnistration to settle the agrarian question according to it's own lights. irresDeetivs of parliament and then go to the country upon this issua
 The government expects to rally not only all tho landed interests but the mas of peas- antry to it's side by giving the latter some immediate relief instead of merely holding out hopes of a more advantageous settle ment in tn indefinite future which has been the stock in trade of many reform CTS.
 strong The actual bastowai of land even if in smaller quantities than ex- pected and the division of communistic holding which 1t is believed make the peas- antry disinclined to vote for candidates to the lower house who might propose total ly different solution of the question. But above all individual possession. the govern ment calculates will incaicate that very respect for property, the lack of which under the system of comnunistic holdings has made many peasants such easy converts to the theory of the naturalization of land.
 Ino acfucidi GueStiOu tb ltA financial as- pect. It will be herculean operation to find the funds required to purchase the pri- vate holdings which the project of minister of agriculture stichinsky contemplated ac- curing through the land banks. even though the owners under the spell of the agrarian disorders are ready to sell at moderate prices.
 The character of these disorders have been shown again in . despatch from Pol- tava describing the destruction of an estate owned by Prince Koichubey. whose breeding stud of 25o horses and more than 500 sheep were locked fin burning buildings and wan tonfy left to perish.
 The government Is holding to strict ac- eountabiiity the responsible officials of the government institutions which were affect ed by the strike Director Suvaroff of the large printing establishment attached to the offiical Messenger, where the compositors struck Monday. has been discharged. and the minister of railroads demanded the resignation of Superintendent Laurence of the Irinoff Railroad for permitting strikers to interfere with traffic on his road. There Is continued preparation among revolutionists for an armed uprising in the south Is believed to be indicated by the Interrogation by the police of shipments of arms and ammunition including rifles and sabres at Poftava and Theodosia.

ABOLISH TATTOO MARKS.
Sailors to Start Movement Against
 Foolish Practice.

Foolish Practice.
 Washington, Aug. Unlisted men in the navy have instituted a move- ment to do away with tattoo marking. which was formerly so popular with sailors.
 Since the conviction of a Brooklyn man, through the efforts of officers of the Humane Society for mutilating the arms of a young boy by decorating them with India ink designs, tatooers have shown unwil,ingness to embellish the bodies of men, who are not known to be of age. and as few adults care to have their bodies decorated, the practice may soon become thing of the past.
 The following description of a de- serter from the navy shows to what extremes some men have gone in deco rations, which cannot be removed:
 Tattoo marks on chest, shoulders, arms and back. viz: Eagle, ship. wo- man. flag. sailor. cards. clasped hands. flag and flowers"
 Tattoo marks are a ready means of Identification of deserters.
