 Parliament.

st Petersburg April 11.-A caucus or constitutional Democratic memoeas ea :. . elect of parliament has been called TOT May (. to formulate line of acton ioI the party. Dissensions, however hase appeared already and spit IS quieo probable. The most radical menipeI favor a plan according to wnicn thes y r.,,,i sac,ipe to take the prescribed oath until the Emperor shall nave e"o'" fidelity to the constitution -
 MT. Kedrine, a well known St. fe- ftersburk lawyer and "a prominent con stitutionalist says the Democrats pe- lieve the opposition should immediately demand the annulment Of the imperal manifesto of March 5, which gave the Government strong hold on the p.o- ceedings of parliament as being Tn. consistent with the previous imperial manifesto of October 30. l965.
 The more practical minded members like M. Vinaver, another constitutional Democratic candidate, believes the first duty of the constitutionalist Democrats is to strengthen their position by a coalition with the peasants on the oasis of an equitable settlement of the agrarian questions.
 The social Democrats and the social revolutionists and other proletariat or ganizations are secretly selecting deie- gates to the big congress which they have planned to hold in Finland some time this month and at which an uitl- mate plan of action will be decided up on. The government is seeking to pre- vent the meeting of the congress by all means.
 The council of the Empire has passed A. law providing pensions for the wid- ows and children of gendarmes and policemen who have been killed by the revolutionists.
 Three hundred and twenty-two gen. darmes or policemen were killed from September 1905, to January 1906.

PLAN FOR PEACE.

ident.
 Boston, April 1.-The folio"lhs
 contamination bearing upon the in- ternatfonal American Conference to De held at Rio Janeiro sent to President , Roosevelt by the American Peace Soci- ety. was made public here today; Theodore Roosevelt. President or Ihe "The Board of Directors of the Amer ican Peace Society in common with other citizens of the nation are ex- pectiug that the forthcoming interns- tional American Conference at RIO Janeiro will contribute greatly toward strengthening and perfecting or the bonds of friendship between all the States of the Western Hemisphere They particularly hope that the in- structions given to the United States delegation and the action of the dele gation in the conference may De Ill every respect such as to convince the Central and South American countries that the United States has no intention whatever in upholding the Monroe Doc
 Urine or in any other of its poccies Of
 trespassing upon the rights Of other American Republics as independent sovereign states, but wishes only to
 promote in every possible way their highest independence and self-develop- ment.
 The board respectfully asks that In formulating the istructions to be given to the United States delegates you will consider whether it would not be wise, in the interests of permanently friend ly relations among the American re- publics, that the international Ameri- can conference should be made reg ular organization to meet at stated periods under the administrative man agement of the bureau of American Republics. The board believes that an organization of the States of this hem isphere would be a very great step in promoting the highest interests of civilization and the establishment or justice and peace throughout the world.
 .The board desires further to call your special attention to the fact that the coming Pan-American conference will afford an admirable opportunity for our nation to join with the repuD- lies of South and Central America in an earnest remonstrance against the unfortunate and disquieting policy by which certain governments seek 10 collect the debts of their subjects by the use or the threat of violence, policy contrary to the precedents gem erally followed by the United States and tending obviously to do injustice to innocent people and to endanger the peace of the world. Could the govern ment of the United States do anything more effectual to promote good feel ing and security among our Southern neighbors than by giving the assur- ance that it will not be a party to the collection of debts by force of arms and will throw the powerful sre port of it's example and diplomatic influence against this practice?
 On behalf of the Board of Directors.

HOPPE NOT IN FORM
HAS NO TROUBLE IN BEATING CUT-
 LER, HOWEVER.
Young Worlds Billiard Champion Fails to Play as Fast or as We'll as His Admirers Had Ex-
 pected.

New York, April 11.-By the score or 500 to 3s2. Willie Hoppe of this city who holds the worlds championship title for 1s.1 billiards, defeated AL bert c. Cutler. of Boston. in sthe hfth game of the worlds 1892 championship tournament at the Madison square Garden tonight. Hoppe did not play as fast or as we'll as was expected. To- morrow afternoon Slosson will play Morningstar and at night Schaefer and Cutler will meet.
 In tonight's game Hoppe and Cutler banked for the lead and the young worlds champion won it. He chose the White ball and made four caroms. but missed on a single cushion bank shot, The Boston man got his stroke right away and sent the globes merrily click ing around the table,.
 As soon as he got them under con- trol Cutler began a series of nursing shots until he had run up thirty-seven points. Hoppe promptly started off with a rapid pace. driving for position with accuracy and nursing gently as occasion required. Two of his masse shots. one on the rail and another in the centre, were faultlessly executed. hut he tripped up on an easy single cushion shet after he had made forty. Cutler failed to count in the second inning and Hoppe only made single carom in the third s- -- 5--y.
 In Cutters half of the inning the Boston man gave the spectators an other exhibition of his ability in a grand all-around run of sixty points. which was abruptly ended in futile try for a masse close to the bottom rall.
 Hoppe made thirteen in the fourth inning and missed single cushion bank. Cutler replied with seven and then Hoppe gathered in thirty-six through some sterling work. when again a single cushion bank miss was his undoing.
 Cutler ran up 16 and the score at this stage was 120 to 94 in Cutters s favor. Hoppe turned his first hundred with ten in the sixth. and after Cut Ter failed to respond with a count Hoppe began to creep up in d timely run. He made 22 points which placed him in the lead with a. margin of 6. Cutler again got cipher and Hoppe went still further ahead with Is more.
 A double kiss spoiled good chance for a long run by Hoppe. in the ninth timing, when he had talled 6S Cut Ter only gathered in his next two turns, while Hoppe added 31 and 9. bringing his score up to 250 with a run of SO.
 After two hours of play the score stood: Hoppe, 3o1: Cutler. 265. for 16 Innings. Hoppe scored 3s and 30 in the eighteenth and nineteenth in

nings. while Cutler added 21 and 2s to | his score, split by a cipher in the eigh- | teenth inning. After Hoppe had made l 8 in the twentieth, Cutler coaxed out Al, falling on a long draw. This left him just 3s points behind Hoppe end ed the last hundred of the game in | his twenty-first inning with a run of I3S.
 Cutler got 13 in the same inning and the score stood: Hoppe, 423; Cutler, | 363.
 Hoppe ran up 50 in very fast time on the twenty-second turn but through seeming haste he missed a draw of less than eight inches. He then led Cut | Ter by no points. Cutler added 19 to | his total in this inning. With 27 to go for the game, Hoppe , began his twenty-third inning, but only got 25.
 Cutler did not score and Hoppe fin- ished the game with two in the twen- ty-fourth inning.
 When Jacob Schaefer of Chicago met Ora Morningstar of Indiana in the fourth game of the worlds champion ship tournament here today, fast work | was looked for. and while the game ran through twenty-seven innings | Schaefer did not disappoint the lovers of the game.
 He defeated Morningstar by a score | of 500 to 233 and made 137 caroms in his seventh inning, which is the high l run of the tournament up to date His line nursing and side-play drew forth l frequent applause. .Schaefer had. many | idle innings but when he struck his | gait the caroms followed each other | quickly on account of his almost inim- itable cue work. In his last three in-
 nings Schaefer made 166 points with
 | 67, 94 and an unfinished run. of 5.--& 1 Morningstar played a good plucky

The Famous Russian Novelist Is suf-

 New York, April 11.-A statement that Maxim Gorky is very Ill with consumption and that he came to America to regain his health. not to secure assistance to obtain the freedom of Russia, was made in his behalf by an interpreter today. The statement fol- lows:
 "Gerky wishes me to tell you that he is a very sick man. suffering from consumption. He came to America. not in the hope of getting assistance to free Russia, but to regain his health. He will go to Denver or California in a few weeks. While he remains Tn New York he expects to work out his autobiography, so that he may put 1t in the hands of a publisher here De- fore going away.
 He desires to have his work mn ished now in case he should not De able to recover his strength. MT. Gorky has been out of Russia for some time and has no idea of the actual status Of the country at this time. He does not think that the prospect of 9uccessful revolution is very bright.

WILL LOSE THE RACE.
I'm Addition Cost of the Connecticut
 Will Be Excessive.

Will He Excessive.
 Washington, April 1.-The present prospects are according to the view now obtaining at the Navy Department that the battleship Connecticut being constructe cd by the Government at the New York Navy Yard will not only cost approximately $400,000 more than her sister ship, the Louisiana, being built by private contractors, but that the Government will lose the race which has been on since the building of the two big ships was begun. Just how much longer it may take to com plete the Connecticut than the Louis lana depends on the action of Con gress.
 According to the latest figures at the Navy Department showing tho pro sress h eing made on ships under con struction, the percentage of completion reported on the Louisiana was 97.92 and the Connecticut 97.11. It was stat, at the Department today that after spending the allotment made fer the present month, the Department will have but $l0,000 to spend on the Con necticut for the month of May, unless Congress meantime passes the appro- priation bill and authorizes the in crease in tho limit of cost asked by the Department. and for which provls- ion is made in the bill.
 When Congress provides for the con struction of one of these battleshps at a navy yard it was with view of obtaining comparative figures to show whether the government could build ships more economically at the navy yards than by private contracts The race between the two ships has been watched with keen interest by

DINNER TO GoRKY.
Mark Twain Says Americans Should Aid
 the Rev0ImtiDnfafs.

New York, April 11.-A dinner. was
 given tonight to Maxim Gorky the Rus sian novelist at the home of Mir. Narod- ny Mark Twain and a number of other literary notables were among the | guests
 Robert Hunter in an opening address | said;
 'The object of this sort of informal dinner tonight, while 1t is to let Mir. Gorky know the esteem in which the
 American people know him, is also to let hi mknow that we have been get ting together a committee that has for it's object the work of aiding the Rus sian revolutionary movement in a fi- nanciaI way. wish to say that among the men who have already accepted a place on this committee are William Dean Howells. Mark Twain and Peter
 F. Dunne and we are waiting to hear from other prominent men and women.
 I hope that in fe wdays he will be able to issue an appeal to the American people asking for aid in this work. Mark Twain then spoke d few words
 of welcome to NJ Gorky. He said that
 If 1t was possible for the Russian peo- pie to obtain freedom or any benen-
 cial reforms and 1t lay in the power of
 the American people to aid. 1t was the
 duty of the American people to pitch ina nd work
 Maxim GorKy, through an lHtttple'O'' said:
 "I have been very glad to know my l friend Mark Twain. He is the best known American in Russia. l wish | to assure both you and him that en Joy the pleasure of being here tonight. I deeply regret that cannot speak English, or I would be talking him 10
 death as well as yourselves. My | object in coming to America was
 to find hearts that would prove
 sympathetic and feel just as deeply as do the sufferings of my people. Even in the short time
 that I have been here I have found
 what l sought and have been given every assurance thatethe fight of my people Is the fight of every free man in these United States.
 Now Is the time for a revolution.

FIGHTING OVER MANCHURIA.
Japs, Russians and Chinese In Three
 COrnered Game of Grab.

 Cornered Game of Grab.
 Washington. April 11.---Reports of friction between the Russian and Chi nese troops in Manchuria have at-
 tracted the attention of the State De- pertinent.
 No official information has been re- ceived on the subject. It was antici-
 pated that the division in the peace
 treaty of the responsibility for the po-
 licing of Manchuria for even a limited
 term between three nations would re-
 suit in just such friction as has been
 reported. At a point on the railroad connecting the Siberian road with Port Arthur and Da1ny. little distance bo' low Harbin. the Japanese troops are in charge of the line. Above that point the road Is under the double protection of Russian and Chinese troops or rail. road guards.
 AS it Is understood here both the Russians and Japanese are looking for- ward with apprehension to the time when they must evacuate Msnchuria proper and In each case there Is c strong desire to ensure as large a holding as possible of the material rs' sources of this rich country after the military forces are withdrawn. One way of accomplishing this hni been to secure concessions for the ex- ploitation of timber lands. of mines and for the development of agricultural
 land, and then to require the Chinese Government to recognize the holdings when they regain possession of the country. But the Chinese Government has shown a surprising degree of self assertion and independence in dealing with these claims. and 1t is believed here that the friction that is now said
 to have arisen in Manchuria results from the attempts being made to in- duce the Chinese to change their atti- tude.
 The only concern of the American Government is that the undertaking of the treaty that Manchuria shall be evacuated by both Russia and Japan shall be lived up to. but this. 1t Is pointed out by officials. is not the time to raise that issue. period of eigh-
 teen months was allowed for the evac-
 uation and when that time shall have
 passed. if the evacuation is not an ac- complished fact the State Department will renew It's interests.

Son of President Smith Says smoot
 Ghnuld Re Removed.

Kansas City, April 11.---L M. smith, son of President Joseph Smith of the reorganized church of Latter Day Saints at the conference of that church at Independence. today in speech made an attack upon the Mormon Church of Utah and declared that United States Senator Smoot should be removed from his position as Senator.
 Among the Latter Day Saints the feeling against the Utah Mormons is strong, according to statements made at the conference today and 1t was said that MT. Smith voiced the sentiment of the conference when he said: senator Shoots influence in Utah as Republican Is dead. He should be removed by all means from his Senatorial position. Last year much of my time was taken up in Investigating the workings of the Nor mon Church in Utah and their teach ings are abominable."
 A resolution was introduced today providing that the power to remove the headquarters of the church be taken out of the hands of President Smith and given over to the conference, but 1t was voted down and a vote of con- fidence in President Smith was adopted after which the venerable president arose and bitterly arraigned the fram- CTS of the resolution.
