life Of Premier Stolypin, with its sick
ening, useless slaughter Of thirty-two
persons, was followed last night by

Seminovsky guard regiment, and who,
since his promotion to be a general has
been attached as personal adjutant
OF the suite of the emperor, was killed

on the platform before shooting the
general. explaining that 1t contained a
bomb.

GROWING IN FAVOR
Heads of Boards Will Not Dominate
 ii hi, Administration.

The ThOms administration appears to be growing iii popular favor every day. A good republican,. who acted on one of the boards for seveta1 years, told a representative of the Democrat to-day that the new administration made hit in deciding to have the business of the city transacted by the boards instead of having the boards led around by the heads of the depart ments as has been the custom since the power of naming boards was con ferred upon the mayor. Why" he said. "tlIis is the only way we can have change in the administration of public affairs and I'm very much pleased to see that Mfr Thoms has made Up his mind to do things that way. The heads of the departments have always dominated the boards and q new administration. meant fioth- ing beyond few new faces. If Thoms and his boards decide upon what they want to do and then turn such mat ters over to tie heads of the depart nienfs to be carried Otit. the present. city administration will be the most popular and the best Waterbury ever had. Frequently commissioners like to say something regardiiig the man, ageinent of q department, but in toG many cases tl1eyl are Estetred from so doing because the head of the depart ment is. there, and the result is that many things that need attention drag along nnfil they become running sores. Tile directors of tue factories don't invite the superimendents of the mills intoS their meetings. If they want them. they send aftef them. near what they have to say and then let them go .on about their business. Thdins has started out well. but whether he will keep this up Or not. will not be known until we see the end of his administration
 This appears to be the general opin- ioii. even fellows who got left in the scramble for recognition on the boards forgetting their woes afid de- clarine that if Thoms and the commits siOners conduct the business of the city for the next two years they will forgive and forget everything. That's the way things are done in other towns and there is no reason why it should be any different here. espe cially when tile charter states that the commissioners. not the heads of the departments, are fit"

MUNICIPAL HOSPITALS.
Great Scheme for Free Treatment o.
 the Sick,

New York. Jan l0.-Details are made known to-day of plans for q chain of municipal hospitals which, when fully realized will. it is declared. give New York the greatest system of free treatment for the sick that the world has seen. Mayor Mcclellan. former Comptroller Grout. Bird s. Coler. president of the borough of Brooklyn. and Commissioner of Chari- ties Robert W. Hebbard are the lead Ing advocates of the project. An esti- mate of the total cost is S77J.000,O0O.
 The plan is for the development of . central system of hospitals in the five boroughs. the buildings to be of uniform architecture. the service to be organized on q scheme of unity. and all under tlie control of one depart ment of the city government.
 Events from time to time demon" strate. say those who favor the under- taking. that New York's hospital ser vice. in its several branches is not up to the point of efficiency that the city has right to expect.

DEATH AND DISASTER.
German Bark In After q Six Months
 Stormy Passage.

San Francisco. Jan. 10-Tlle Cllron- icle says: X story of death and disas- ter reaches here from the German bark Alsternixe. just arrived at the port of Santa R0salia in the Gulf of Califor mia after an eventful passage of over six months from Hamburg. The yes- sel arrived in charge of her first oifi- cer with fifteen n.ei confined to their buiiks with scurvy. leaving less than a half dozen complaining men to work the vessel. While for to tic sOuil- ward Mate Ascnman reports that Cap tain Anhagen died at the height of q storm and that shortly afterward Mil. Ter. the second mate. fell overheard and was drowned.
 From then until her arrival In port the ship. short handed and delayed by light and varying winds crept slowly over leagues of sea to her destination with the men falling one by one vie tins of sciirvy. That shh ever iiiaile port at al under such adverse conhi- tions. is considered in the light of al. most a miracle.

 Food Inspector Keeley intends to protect the public as much as tile law enables him. Tn several meat stores in the north end yesterday he ordered quantity of meat that was exposed for sale outside the door to be taken inside. where the dust of the street would not affect it. One dealer who thought he knew the law better than the inspector. refused at first to re- move his goods inside his door. claim ing that he had right to exhibit his wares in whatever way best suited himself. The inspector did not deny this. but informed him that the public had some rights also. more So than the individual. in fact. and that meat ex- posed on the street for sale was liable to become contaminated and therefore unfit for use and be condemned. This struck the dealer in the right wav and he accordingly took in his horhs Ana his goods.
