Boston, June 1S.-tAt the annual din- ner of the State Medical society here tonight Judge Sheldon, who was one of the presiding justices at the trial of Charles L. Tucker, executed Tuesday morning for murdering Mabel Page, spoke on "Circumstantial Evidence. v Judge Sheldon in his address said:
 ''For the past few years it has fallen to me to devote myself to the consider alton of circumstantial evidence, and in that experience it has become apparent that from a chain of circumstances no conclusion can be drawn of greater strength that is to be laid on the weak est link in that chain.

 Country, in Ferment-OminOus In-
 ability of Authorities to Cope With
 Prospective Agrarian DisOrders-Dai-
 Iy Requests for Troops Which Cam
 not be Met.
 St. Petersburg, June 13.-Ominous as the governments ability to cope with prospective agrarian disorders is the news which comes from Poltava, one of the richest and most populous farm ing districts of Russia, that the gov- ernor is in daily receipt of requests for troops for the protection of estates from the peasants, who have not the slight est awe of the rural guards. The gov ernor will be unable to comply with these requests because the local troops, one regiment of which mutinied on Sunday last, are so infected by the revolutionary propaganda that detach- ments sent to the villages immediately fraternize with the peasants. The gov- ernor therefore begs the St. Petersburg authorities to send him fresh troops.
 The conditions in Poltava with re- gard to the army probably are wide spread. Indeed, the army is frail reed for the government to lean upon if it rejects parliaments agrarian scheme The general staff rejects, moreover, to furnishing further troops for police duty, and has refused requests foI guards for government liquor shops which are increasingly subject to at tack, on the ground that to comply with all these demands would interfere with the strategic necessity of the em. pire
