Reveals Alleged Plot.
Chicago, Dec. 2s.-Revelations were
made yesterday concerning the past life
of Nicholas De Raglan which tend in
some respects to clear a part Of the
mystery surrounding the death OF the
former attache of the Russian consul
in Chicago and which again throw
deeper shadow about the entire affair.
Whether De Raglan is still living and
is in reality man or whether the body
buried at Phoenix, Ariz, which has
been identified as De Raglan, is in fact
the corpse of the former attache of the
Russian consul may be determined by
Attorney F. A. Barchulis, legal adviser
to Baron Schlippenbach. The disclos-
ures concerning Baron Schlippenbach's
former secretary were made by Attor-
ney Barchulis yesterday, after he had
investigated the financial dealings Of
De Raglan and the connection which
the attache had with the Russian legal
bureau at Sc Fifth avenue.
AS result of this investigation it
was learned by the lawyer that rela-
tions between De Raglan and Baron

WANT BUILDING PRINTS.
Davenport Proposes to Secure Bette,
Inspection.

Davenport, Dec. 2S.-A movement has
been started among the city officials
to secure a new ordinance concerning
the issuing of building permits and 1t
Is understood that one is to come be-
fore the council some time during the
first OF the year.
The present method Is a very lax
one. The contractor Is not required
to take out a permit until he chooses
and in some instances he does not do II
at all. The ordinance Is supposed to
compel the builder to secure permits
sion before he erects building but
there Is no method that compels him
to state the exact cost.
The result Is that in majority OF
instances no building permit Is Sc
cured until the structure Is well under
way and sometimes not until 1t Is
completed. Many times where per-
mits are secured the cost Of the struc-
ture is not given and even more, many
times additions to buildings, remodel
ing OF structures and other work OF a
similar character are not recorded IN
the city hall at all. BY this loose
method the city can keep no correct
account of the buildings that are being
erected nor of the cost OF the struc-
lures. 1t is known that the total costs
OF the buildings for the months DUR
ing the past year are much less than
the amount that has been expended
and there is no way of getting at a
correct estimate. Added to this is
the fact that the building may be
contrary to the law and ordinance and
II 1t is partly erected it is sometimes
completed that way. s
The proposition that the alderman
have in mind is an ordinance that will
compel every contractor or any one
else to take out a permit before work
IL begun on the building, also to give
the cost Of the proposed structure or
work.

boatswain, prey to gloom natural to

He walked for two miles deep in

Of turf and lit his pipe. The heat and
the drowsy hum Of bees made him

Of his mouth, and his eyes closed.
He opened them at the sound Of APP

Schlippenbach had for months been
strained. There had been some disa-
greement between the two over De
Raylan's utilization with the legal bu-
reau.
The story Of the organization OF this
bureau has been learned by Attorney
Barchulis and in 1t there is indicated
that the supposed De Raglan death in
Arizona is a part Of plot. The bu-
reau was organized by De Raglan and
his friends last February. Russians
who sought advice in regard to the
drawing Of legal documents were. 1t Is
said, led to believe they were dealing
directly with their consul.
When complaints of excessive fees
were made to the consul the latter
would assure the visitor that he was
not personally interested In the draw
ing of the document and that he could
not be responsible for the fee demanded
by his secretary. These complaints
grew numerous and Schlippenbach's
office was moved from the building In
Fifth avenue. When the legal bureau
was organized, the lawyers assert, De
Raglan and his friends instructed the
elevator men and other employees OF the
building to direct to their office all
persons who inquired for the Russian
consul. Because of the ignorance OF
many patrons, 1t is asserted, they were
thus easily led to believe that their
affairs were being attended to by the
regular Russian authorities.
The attache is said to have become
involved and his disappearance from
Denver, where he was supposed by his
wife to have gone for his health. and
the appearance Of the corpse which has
been identified as that of woman may
be part OF conspiracy. This is
now the theory of persons who seek
further light on De Raylan's connection

Washington, Dec. 29.-The holidays
for the president, Senator Foraker ana
the attorneys in the department Of JUS
tice are being rudely disturbed by the
Brownsville controversy. While the
president has been holding several
conferences with the attorneys from
the department of justice, and has sent
Assistant, Attorney General Purdy to
Texas to obtain evidence at the scene
of riot. Mr.. Foraker has not been idle.
Shortly after the adjournment Of
congress, Senator Foraker went over
to New York He has returned after
holding a conference with the officials
Of the Constitutional league and during
the week he will meet number Of
other prominent people who are of the
opinion that an injustice has been done
to the colored troops discharged by the
president.
That the president sent Mr.. Purdy to
Brownsville indicates that he con-
siders the controversy OF the highest
Importance.
Mr.. Purdy has charge Of the Stand
ard Oil cases In Washington, but he
has been taken off of this important lit
igation to devote his time to the legal
features Of the Brownsville order
Purdy is considered by many as the
strongest attorney in the department
Of justice, and the result OF his work
will be looked forward to with great
interest.
Attic the senators are not inclined to
discuss what their attitudes will be
when the Brownsville case comes up
for disposition after the holiday, there
are indications that the debate will
make strange bedfellows.
Not all Of the southern senator's will
defend President Roosevelt.
Senator Tillman has indicated that
he will align himself with Senator For
aker. Altho Senator Tillman Is the
most rampant negro hater in congress.
In his opinion the presidents order
was unconstitutional and unjust.
Senator Tillman says that he does
not believe the negroes should be adj

they should be dealt with in the same
manner that white soldiers are treat
ed.
Senator Knox is expected to be one
OF the presidents chief champions,
! The senator from Pennsylvania has
great confidence in the assistant to
Attorney General Bonaparte and 1t is
thought that at Senator Knox's sugges-
ton MIR. Purdy was sent to Texas to
collect evidence on the subject.
Senator Knox will rely much on
facts that are brought out by Mr.. Pur-
ry's investigation and will probably
base his argument upon his report.
In the debate on the side OF the
president, shoulder to shoulder, Will
probably be found Senators Lodge and
Knox, republicans: Senators Culber-
son and Morgan, democrats. This will
probably be the first time that this
combination of senators has taken the
same side Of any important question.
Senator Spooner will also made
speech, supporting the president.
