Minneapolis, July Whatever
doubt may have existed as to the guilt
OF Nathan NJ. Riggs OF the foul murder
OF Mile Ellison In the National hotel
on Thursday last has dissipated and
the absolute proof OF his dannabie
guilt forever established Acting upon
the advice Of the county attorney Of
Hennepin county the authorities broke

Riggs had ii the Guaranty Safety De-
poslt vaults In the Metropolitan Life
building.
Mrs. Riggs had refused to turn over
the keys to the authorities. declaring
That abe would do nothing to further
sincriminate her husband. E$
The oficers were certain that this
locker contained evidence of Riggs
guilt, but even they were surprised at
the startling evidence 1t disclosed.
First Of all, and most damnable Of
All, were the two 81 900 bills given to
Miss Ellison BY Teller A. II. Riley Of
the National Bank Of Commerce three
hours before her murder. These two
bills had been punched by the teller

st. Petersburg, July 14.-The out
look for the passage of the summer
without great upheaval in Russia
is considerably brighter. and every
thing making for the delay increases
the possibility of a constitutional
regime without civil war. Lawless-l
ness, which is now chronic throughout
the empire, is not expected to sub
side, but the most powerful Influences
in opposition to the government are
temporarily seeking to stave off cri-
sis. Unless the government by stu
pid blunder forces all the parties to-
make common cause the crisis. which
all feared was imminent, will be post
poned until the fall The Constitu-
tional Democrats have sober sense
of the responsibility and power witt,
which they firmly believe they will
soon be charged and arc interested
in pouring oil on the troubled waters
and the more conservative wing Of
the Social Democrats, numerically
the strongest proletariat organization
In the country, seems to have succeed
