st. Petersburg, May 10-The Empe-
ror's reception today passed off with
out any untoward incident. The tone
of the speech from the throne opening
the Douma was conciliatory. 1t ex-
pressed the Emperor's wish that relief
be given to the peasants in their
present unfortunate conditions, and
called on the members of parliament
to put their hearts into their work and
to cooperate with him in solving the
present problems of Russia and in
handing down united and prosperous
empire to his successor.
The Emperor and the Empress after
leaving the palace, entered a launch,
passed down the river, boarded the
imperial yacht Alexandra and return
ed to Peterhof The crowds on the
banks of the river and islands hearti,
ly cheered the imperial party.

Streams of multi-colored pennants
fiuttred from the yachts and shipping
in the harbor. Even the tiny pas
senger boats which thread the rivers
and canals, the street cars and many
cabs, carried the Russian colors. The
banks, stores, schools and some OF
the factories were closed in honor OF
the occasion, but there was no general
holiday, the government specifically
discouraging a suspension of work in
the industrial districts, owing to fear
that crowding the workmen into the
center of the city might provoke col
lisions, disorders and perhaps blood
shed.
Great Task Ahead.
One of the leading deputies in an
interview just before the Douma as
sembled said:
1--WE recognize the serious nature
of the task before us. Our efforts will
be directed not to passing legislation
| bringing temporary relief to Russia
| but to the larger duty of establishing
| the supremacy of the peoples rule
over autocracy. We recognize the
power of the bureaucracy, but We
| firmly believe that the voice of the
people will ultimately rise supreme.
THE world must not expect toe
uick work by the Douma. We must
have time in overthrowing the auto
cracy, but we all feel that we will sue
coed finally. That is the spirit will
which the Douma opens today"

Chicago, May 10.-The exposure of
the American Bridge Company in
Ohio has led to conjecture as to how
much Cook County has lost on the
bridges built by the company for the
Drainage Canal Commission. 1t is de-
clared that this pool which is led by
the American Bridge Company, holds
in it's iron grasp practically all the
public bridge contracts that are let in
Illinois, Ohio, Indiana and West Vir-
ginia and portions of Pennsylvania,
New York, Michigan and Wisconsin.
Twenty-one companies in all form
this combination and where they have
control not a single bona fide COM
petitive bid is made, it is alleged. and
an independent company which will
not come into the pool is driven out
of business.
F. s. Monnett, former attorney gen
eral of Ohio, and Attorney De Rand
of Cleveland, who are in Chicago, de-
clare that the twenty-one companies
are divided into four classes-A, B, c,
and d. When county board adver-
tises for bids for a bridge the mem
bers of the pool would decide which
one was to get the contract. The
actual cost of the bridge would be de-
termined, and the concessonaire
would put in a bid naming a price
twice the cost or more. In Ohio the
attorneys said the agent sof the pool
id not hesitate to bride county com
missioners whenever their protests a
gainst the outrageously high prices be-
came too strenuous. One conviction
for bribery has been obtained in Otta-
wa County Ohio, and other indict
ments are pending in the State.
