Cossack's Death.
Odessa, July 24.-People are moving

The members of the douma then fran

The Constitutional Democrats had
been desperately fighting demand of
the Labor and Radical members that
the document include a declaration
against paying taxes and another
against furnishing recruits for the

Democrats, under the influence Of the
threat of martial law, swung into line
with the Radicals, and the address to
the country was adopted with practical
unanimity.
The members then elected a perma-

Prince Paul Dolgoroukoff, vice presi-
dent of the house, to carry on the work
of liberation and adjourned amid char

Douma's Purposes Explained.

Oouma's Purposes Explained.
First of all, we wanted to make
law respecting the distribution of land
to working peasants, setting aside for
this purpose orphanages, monasteries
and lands belonging to the clergy and
providing for compulsory expropria-
ton of private estates. The govern
ment held that a law was inadmis-
sible. and when the douma once more
urgently insisted upon its resolution re-
garding compulsory appropriation the
douma was dissolved
1.-THE government promises to con-
woke new douma seven months
hence. Russia must remain without
popular representation for seven whole
months at time when the people are
standing on the brink of ruin, when In
dustry and commerce are undermined,
when the whole country Is seething
with unrest and when the ministry has
definitely shown its incapacity to do
justice to popular needs. For seven
months the government will act arbi-
trarily and will fight against the pop
ular movement in order to obtain
pliable, subservient douma. Should 1t
succeed, however, in suppressing the
popular movement the government will
invoke no douma at ALL
Citizens Rights invoked.
Citizens, stand up for your trampled
rights, for popular representation and
for an imperial douma Russia must
not remain a day without popular rep
reSentatiOn
you have the means of acquiring it.
Without the assent of the peoples rep
resentatlves the government has no
right to collect taxes from the people
nor to summon the people to military
service. Therefore you are now the
government.
"The dissolved douma was justified
in giving neither money nor soldiers.
Should the government contract loans
to raise money such loans will be in
valid without the consent of the peo-
pies representatives. The Russian peo-
pie never will acknowledge them and
will not be called upon to pay them.
Accordingly until popular repre-
sentative assembly is summoned do not
give kopeck to the throne or soldier
to the army. Be steadfast in your re-
fusal. No power can resist the united,
infiexible will of the people.
Citizens, in this obligatory and un-
ayoidable struggle your representatives
will be with you.''

of the harsh criticism of the United
States in Japan. He was inclined to
discount the other causes given for
the sentiment against this country.
The friendship between the United
States and Japan is too genuine and OF
too long standing to justify any formal
protest on the part of Japan because
of wrongs her citizens may have suf-
fered in some one locality in the
United States" said Viscount. Aoki.
There is much misunderstanding in
Japan concerning the true situation.
Of course the Japanese government
fully realizes that the action against
the japanese children is local and not
general in this country, but all the
japanese people do not understand
conditions il this country and a local
unfriendliness to japanese is regarded
by many persons as a national ac-

TENEMENT BUILDING AT KANSAS
CITY, KAN. BURNS, BURYING
MANY IN THE RUINS.
SCORES ARE SAVED BY FlREMEN
OF UPPER FLOOR
COMPELLED TO JUMP INTO
ARMS OF REsCUERs.

Kansas City, Oct 26.-[n the ruins
of the Chamber of Commerce building
in Kansas City, Kan, destroyed by
fire early in the day, there are any
where from half a dozen to thirty bod
les, according to estimates given out
by fremen who had worked at the
Assistant Fire Chief Lind insisted that
the dead would not reach over six. In
addition fifty persons were injured,
several of whom will die. The actual
loss of life will not be known until a
thorough search of the ruins can be
made, probably not then, as some Of
the fremen assert that many bodies
must have been burned to ashes. The
building, used as a. tenement house
and containing 100 rooms, held as near
as can be learned between 200 and 800
persons at the time the fire broke out
Most of these composed families,
many others were translents, whose
names are unknown. 1t was the Gus
tom for many Of the transients, who
came mostly from the nearby railroad
yards, not to register and thus all
trace of them is lost for the time be-
ing. Only a thorough search Of the
ruins that may take days and an exact
accounting of the missing will finally
reveal the extent of the catastrophe.
The fire broke out on the ground
floor from some unknown cause at
1890 a. m Isolated as it was the
burning building was difficult of access
and it was some time before the fire
department reached the scene Sew
eral companies were at fire in an
other part OF the city.

NOW USED AS sCHooLHOUSES
American Troops in Cuba to Occupy
Old Spanish Barracks.

Havana, Oct. 26.-General Bell has
returned here after tour of inspec
ton of the American garrisons, solng
as far as Csafuegos. He reported
that it was necessary at the city OF
Santa Clara and some other points to
provide permanent quarters for the
troops aud Governor Magoon has de-
cided to utilize, wherever it is neces-
sary, the old Spanish barracks now
used for schoolhOuses. In making
this arrangement Mr.. Magoon said
that iii view of the fact that the troops
were not likely to remain more than a
few mouths he believed it would be
unjust to impose on the Cuban treas
ury the cost of erecting barracks. The
schools, he added, would only be used
when other quarters were not avail
able.
Mr.. Magoon has congratulated the
rural guard on the splendid services
it had rendered in relieving the dis
tress among the sufferers by the re-
cent cyclone.

a few minutes after the fire was dis
covered all means of escape by the
stairWays for the scores of occupants
was shut off, On two sides of the
building the elevated railway tracks
hemmed it in and made still harder
the work of the fremen. Then an
other obstacle arose. The firemen did
not have sufficient ladders and many
of those they had were too short to
reach the upper stories A sitting
smoke filled the building, evidently
coming from the burning stocks of
merchandise on the floor below, and
some of the occupants probably were
never able to leave their rooms.
Upper Floor Occupants Cur Off.
When the firemen arrived they saw
men hanging from WindoWsills on the
upper floors and frantic women with
babies in their arms and children
clinging to them leaning far out from
the windows unable to find any means
of escape and yet taking advantage of
the little fresh air which the windows
afforded. The fremen quickly ran
their ladders up, but they did not
reach above the third floor Many
persons were on the floor above. The
fremen first devoted themselves to
the people on the second and third
floors and did not then heed the
screams of the people above. Many
of the persons in the interior of the
building were already overcome by
the dense smoke and had to be carried
out by the hremen. But many were
able to escape down the ladders with
out assistance. After getting every
one they could find out of the second
and third floors the firemen turned
their attention to the people above.
AS the ladders did not reach above
the third floor the men on the fourth
floor literally pitched their wives and
children down to the fremen on the
ladders and then jumped down them
selves. Some of the more eXcitable
ones jumped to the ground and were
either killed or badly injured. Some
whom the firemen tried to catch fell
the entire distance to the ground.
Only the south side walls Of the
building remain standing. The interior
construction was entirely Of wood and
the stores on the ground floor and the
rooms on the upper floors contained
much infarlmable material The c1-
tire contents were DESTROYED. Long
