TREPOFF DIES
NATURAL DEATH
Most Hated Man in Russia is
Dead But Not at Hands
of HIS Enemies
Six Attempts Had Been Made on His
Life Within the Past Three Years,
in One Instance d Man Who
Resembed Him Being Shot.

st. Petersburg. general Dmitri Pc
odorovich Trepoff, commandant of the
imperial palace, died at o'clock Sat
urday evening in his villa at Peterhof
of angina pectoris
General Trepoff, whose name was
indelibly linked with reactionary re-
preston in Russia, was a remarkable
man. He was natural despot, a ty-
rant by inclination, education and con
viction. He was one OF those men
who have constantly appeared in Rus
sian history just at the time when con.
ditions were most promising for put
ting an end to despotism to turn Rus
sian rulers from liberalism to reaction.
1t was he who became the guiding
spirit of the reaction after Nicholas
II had issued his manifesto in the fall
OF 1905, promising the people share
in the government Holding the DO
sition of master of the palace, in
league with the court intriguers who
were determined to restore the old
regime, he constantly had the emper-
OrS car.
In all six actual attempts :, on the
life of General Trepoff have been made
within three years, and only last July
General Kozloff of the headquarters
was assassinated at Peterhof by a ter
rorist who believed he was firing upon
Trepoff.
General Trepoff would have been 81
years old in December Several
months he had been suffering fran a
heart affection and asthmatic troubles.
and some time ago was forced to
abandon a large amount of his routine
work

BEACON LIGHT FOR OLD WORLD.
Monument to George Washington I'm
yelled at Budapest.

Enthusiastically, September 16,
was George Washington day in Hun.
gary's capital, and the entire popula
ton, from morning until night, gave
itself up to enthusiasm over the un.
yelling on monarchial territory of a
monument to the first president of the
United States. The stars and stripes
and the Hungarian colors intertwined
were to be seen everywhere In the
morning there were special sermons
in many of the churches, the preach
ers calling attention to the Importance
OF the event. In the afternoon thou
sands of persons lined the streets
through which passed an imposing pa
rade to the city park, which was sur
rounded by many thousands more.
Francis Kossuth, Hungarian minister
of commerce, and Count Albert Apron
vi, minister of worship, represented
the independence party at the cere-
monies, and were not present in their
capacity as government officials.

FINAL EFFORT MADE
FOR PEACE IN ISLANDS
The Cuban Government Has Been
Thoroughly Aroused by Prospects
of American Intervention.

Havana The government is max
ing final strenuous efforts to restore
peace in Cuba and thus avoid any kind
of American Intervention. The object
of these endeavors. 1t is said, is that
1t may be able to say by the time Sec
rotary of War Taft and Acting Secre-
tary of State Bacon arrived that peace
has already resulted; that therefore
there is no need for American inter-
vention, either to restore peace or to
insure permanent tranquility.
It IS claimed that they are making
the efforts in accordance with the adj
vice contained in President Rooseyelt's
letter; that they have no objection to
the friendly assistance of the United
States in the matter If it becomes nee
essary, but that they believe they can
settle it between the government and
revolutionists without the necessity of
any Intervention. At least, they say
they are making an attempt to accom-.
plish their end unaided, and with fair
prospects of success.

Terrible Accident on the Rock Island
in Oklahoma.

Guthrie, Okla.-Eight people are
dead, twenty more or less injured and
as many more are missing in the most
disastrous wreck in the recent history
of the Rock Island, which occurred

mail cars, smoker and day coach OF
passenger train No. IL, northbound,
left the high bridge that spans the
Cimarron river and plunged into the
current, fanked by treacherous quick
sands. The locomotive disappeared
from sight almost Immediately. The
mail and baggage clerks escaped from
their coaches and swan to the shore.
The accident was due to the defec-
tive condition of the bridge, which
was swerved out of line by the press
ure of driftwood carried down by the
swollen stream.
