RUsSIA'S ALLY DISTURBED.
France Regards Dissolution of Parlla-
menf as Fatal BIu1der.

y
PARIS, July 23.-The Russian stu
alton absOrbs the attention Of the Off
Gals, the public and the press of Paris
In official circles the dissolution of
parliament was unexpected, some of
the latest advices reaching the Foreign
ONCE indicating the probability of a
compromise ministry in which mem
bers of the lower house would partici-
pate.
Officials here are cautious in criti-
cising the turn of events, owing to the
political relations existing between
France and Russia; but it is freely adj
mitted that French sentiment gener-
ally condemns the dissolution of the
representative branch Of parliament
Much attention is given in high quar-
ters to reports of intrfgues by certain
European powers preceding the disso-
luton. the prevailing view being that
Emperor Nicholas course was inf1u-
enced by counselors outside of Russia
The financial effect of the imperial
manifesto is causing apprehension, as
ore of the chief inducements to the
taking up-of the last Russian loan was
the Governments assurances of the
cuieting OF internal disorders by CO.
operation with parliament. Members
of the Bourse, however, urge calmness,
declaring that if the situation remains
another week without an outbreak
Russian securities will be stronger
than before. as the agitation incident to
the debates in parliament will have
been removed and the Government will
then have demonstrated it's ability to
maintain order.

THAV's WIFE MAY
SEEK DIVORCE.
Evelyn Nesbit Is Said
to Have Her Friends
Busy Gathering Data
MORE TO BE TOLD

PITTSBURG. July 23.-There has
been sprung in Pittsburg a rumor that
Mrs. Harry K Thaw is gathering data
through her friends for the purpose OF
getting a divorce from her husband at
the earliest opportunity. The story
will not down. Those close to the fam
lily assert that it has been some time
since Mrs. Thaw the younger declared
herself on this subject. This was be-
fore the tragedy in New York, and 1t
is asserted that the dramatic events in
tervening have made no change in the
plans of the young wife. Certain
friends have been gathering rather
quietly a certain sort of informa ton
regarding the life and habits of Harry
Thaw which. If proved in divorce
court, would give a divorce without
many questions being asked.
Mrs. Charles ]. Holman, mother OF
Mrs. Harry Thaw, tonight. in discuss
ing the murder case, said: There is
more, much more, to be told yet"
The woman who wrote the letters to
Stanford White regarding Harry Thaw
and her daughter. Evelyn Nesbit, Is
evidently not bit frightened at the
espionage which Detective Roger
O'Mara has sought to exercise over her.
and it now begins to look as IL there
on the Thaw matter.
That Mrs. Holman has decided to
stick by her daughter the same daugh-
ter who. at the suggestion of her new
relatives, cast her off entirely on the
eve of her wedding, was announced to-
day in Brookline, where Mrs. Holman
is well known and has many warm
friends.
II am mother, and mothers love
comes first OF ALL" is the way in which
the situation was summed up by Mrs.
Holman during short discussion this
afternoon, but at the same time 1 do
not wish TO say or do anything to make
1t hard for the one already in trouble"
Mrs. Holman spent a very busy day
receiving many of her friends, who dis
cussed with her the publicity given her
letters to Stanford White. There is
every ground for the belief that the
making public of the letters was a
great relief to Mrs. Holman. who had
feared her situation would not be fully
understood unless some data of a time
previous to the marriage OF Harry
Thaw and Evelyn be made public.

SHOSHONE, Wye, July 23.-Two
colored cavalrymen from Fort Washa-
kie will be arrested during the next
few days charged with the murder of
City Attorney Moody and the shooting z

THREAT HASTENS ACTION.
Untu the last moment 1t seemed that
the desire for unanimous adoption OF
the manifesto would be wrecked. There
were sharp differences between the
Constitutional Democrats and the revo-
lutionists. The latter wished to pro-
claim the house in perpetual session
and abrogate the allegiance of the peo-
pie. while the Constitutional Democrats
favored the declaration Of the pacific
general strike without resort to revo-
lutionary measures as aprotest against
the Emperor's dissolution OF Parlia-
ment.
The psychological moment which
changed the minds of the Moderates
was the arrival Of Governor Rechen-
berg with the curt command to dis
perse or take the consequences. when

stitutional Democrats, such as Petra

itself a constituent assembly and COM

USE OF TURBINES

LONDON, July 23.-The first official
announcement regarding the battleship
Dreadnaught is contained in White
Book on naval construction of the past
year, which was issued tonight. Be-
sides the ten 12-inch guns announced,
the Dreadnaught will have twenty
seven 12-pound quick firing anti-tor-
boat guns and five submerged tor
pedo tubes.
In the arrangement of armament six
of the big guns are mounted in pairs
or the center line of the ship and the
remaining four are mounted In pairs
as broadsides. Thus eight twelve-inch
guns, or so per cent, can be fired on
can be fired simultaneously ahead or
astern.
In view of the modern potentialities
of torpedo boats, and considering espe-
cially the chances for a torpedo attack
toward the end of a battle, the anti
torpedo side guns are widely separated,
so that the whole of them cannot be
disabled by one heavy she'll.
Special attention has been paid to
protection from submarine explosions.
After a thorough consideration from
every point of view, the White Book
states that the experts had no difficulty
In arriving at a decision to adopt tur-
bines, which were considered more adj
vantageous for seagoing speed.
The speed is designed to be FL knots.
The bunker capacity Is 2700 tons, with
which the Dreadnaught can steam
$500 sea miles at economical speed and
$500 miles at 1871 knots.
The estimated cost of the Dread
naught, including guns. is $s,9s7,4S5.

and met squads of gendarrnes, with
drawn swords, escorting little bands of

men, agitators and revolutionary sus-
poets were made. The railroads lead
ing out of the city have been placed
under martial law and the gendarmes
search the passengers and baggage on
all trains for arms or political docu-
ments.
Not only the Tauride Palace but the
gates Of the park leading to it We're
closed and the surrounding streets
were alive with gendarmes and secret
police. In the courtyard of a neigh
boring barracks of one of the guard
regiments the correspondent saw two
companies drawn up in marching or

travel-stained detachment of gray
cuirassiers galloping in from Kras-

now more than 10000 troops massed in

DIR. pIERcE.s REMEDIES.
Treating Wrong Disease

Many times women call on their family
physicians, suffering, as they imagine
one from dyspepsia, another from hear
disease, another from liver or kidney
disease, another from nervous exhaustion
or prostration, another with pain here and
there, and In this way they all present
alike to themselves and their easy-goine
and Indifferent, or oyer-busy doctor, sep
arate and distinct diseases, for which he,
assuming them to be such, prescribes his
pills and potions. In reality, they are all
only symptoms caused by some uterine
disease. The physician, ignorant of the
cause of suffering, encourages this prac-
tice until large bills are made. The suf-
fering patient gets no better, but probably
worse, by reason of the delay, wrong
treatment and consequent complications.
A proper medicine Ike DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription, directed TO the cause
would have entirely removed the disease,
thereby dispelling all those distressing
symptoms, and instituting comfort in
