The red guard consists in the greater

BIG FIRE AT MILAN

City Suffers Loss Estimated at $2,-
5oo,ooo-WhoIe Exposition Was
Threatened.

Milan, Italy, Aug. 3--Fire this morn
ing in the interna tional exposition, did
nearly $2,50O,OOO damage. The sections
devoted to decorative arts and archi-
lecture of Italy and Hungary were to-
tally destroyed. Several firemen and
carbineers were injured.

this morning in the Hungarian section
and spread rapidly to the art sections
situated in the adjoining park. For a
time the British. Swiss, Japanese and
Netherlands sections were threatened.

ed in saving them. The jewelry and
fipe arts sections were also threatened.

great excitement, and vast crowds of

PREN|ER'S PLANS
All the Good Work of Stolypin
Looking to Reform
Destroyed
LIBERAL LEADERS IN DISGUST
Resignation is Predicted, as
His Negotiations With tho Radicals
Are Not Confirmed and His Promises
Not Backed Up by Nicholas = St.
Petersburg Filling Up With Troops.

ST Petersburg Aug. 3.-The report
last night that Emperor Nicholas had
fatty refused to accept the conditions
to which Premier Stolypin agreed in
Alexander Guchkoff, Prince Nicholas
Lvoff, Paul Vinogradoff, and Senator
koni for reorganization of the cabinet,
and which the premier recommended
the emperor TO accept, turns out to be
true. Official confirmation came this
morning in a one-line announcement as
follows: Reports that non-bureau-
cratic elements will enter the cabinet
are untrue" Count Heyden and his
conferees have now washed their hands
of the government. The court him.
self has already left ST. Petersburg
for his estate in the country, and all
Stolypin's glittering promises of
"strong-handed reform" are thus sud
denly dashed to earth. At his first en-
counter with the influences at court
he has been worsted and the predic-
tions of the liberals that dissolution Of
parliament would inevitably lead to a
dictatorship appear on the point of
realization. There is no doubt the pam
ic created at the court by mutiny at
Cronstadt, within earshOt of the en-
peror, made the victory Of Camarilla
easy. 1t is difficult to understand how
Stolypin can now remain in office
without stultifying himself in the eyes
of the nation and the world. The
guard regiments, which were sent back
to their camp at kraSnoye-,Selo, at
the end of last week, when the govern
ment was pluming itself with the belief
that the country had accepted the en-
peror's fiat, are again returning to the
capital. They have been marching in
all night. The patrol in the streets
again has been reinforced, and all pub
lie buildings are heavily occupied by
troops, while the number of domiciliary
visits and arrests have been redoubled.
The authorities act as If they were
dayed, not knowing what to expect
next. The searchlights OF cruiser sta
toned in the lower reaches of the Neva
and similar lights on the roof of the
Baltic works were placed last night on
the river as If ST. Petersburg was be-
seiged by foreign foe.
Rech has been confiscated, and even
such high-toned papers as Ravitstvaie
(Quality), and Professor Kovalevsky's
Ekstrana, have been suppressed. Only
Novoe Vremya and Svet Of the unoffi-
cial papers, seem to be immune from
seizure Last nights incendiary fires
did not spread, giving relief to those
who feared the whole city might be set
on fire. Reports from Cronstadt today
say all the sailors have not yet sur
rendered. Trials by drumhead court
martial were resumed this morning,
and it is believed further executions
are in progress.

KANSAS CROPS ARE IMMENSE,
Wheat and Corn Yields, Will Together
be Worth S115,000,00o.

O0 WV III " sStSSSsSSSs
Kansas City, NO. Aug. AT the
present market values this years wheat
crop is worth $5O,O00,O00 to the farm
ers of Kansas and worth many mill

and the railroads Of the west. The
corn crop Of Kansas promises to be
about 2O0,O00,000 bushels and will be
worth about $65, 100000 on the farm
ers.
The wheat crop of Kansas has turn
ed out far beyond the expectations of
any one. UP to July it was general
ly thought the yield would be less than
last year. Threshing has NV proceed
ed far enough to indicate that the
state has raised 90,000000 bushels of
wheat, or 100000 bushels more than
in 1905, and with one exception the
largest crop Kansas has ever produc-
ed.
Indeed, the final returns may raise
the estimate above the crop OF 1903,
which was 94,O0O,00O bushels.
Probably not more than one-third
of the crop hats been threshed. The
estimates here given are based on the
threshing which has been done
Phenomenal yields are reported from
nearly every county in the state. Many
fields produced forty to fifty bushels

that do not report some fields yielding

ton was that the grand jury consist of
