WILL ACCEPT NEW LAWS.
Government Seems Anxious for a g,
 clement With Parliament.

Government Seems Anxious for q Set-
 clement With Parliament.
 St Petersburg, July 2-Interior Min ister Stolypin, who more than any other member of the cabinet. seems to be trying to appease Parliament by an attitude of frankness. publicly an- nounced today in behalf of the govern ment that after an examination the government is prepared to accept the laws which the lower House is consid- ering for establishing liberty of con science and freedom of meetings and associations
 M. Sturmer, now a member of the upper House and formerly an Assis- tant of the late Interior Minister Won Plehve, who has returned here after making a tour of the interior, says he found the peasants more tranquil than the reports indicated. They seem ed ready to await the promised agra rian reform and he found only few of the peasants in favor of the nation alization of land. Sentiment was divid- ed regarding the forced appropriation of the land. The peasants demand sat isfaction of their land hunger, but their ideas are hazy and differ accord ing to localities. They generally fla vor the appointment of local commis- sions to settle disputed l oints In ac- cordance with varying local condi- tions
 II Is considered SlsnlHcdnt that M. Sumner, who Is classed as a reaction ary. but who evidently has now receiv- ed an intimation from friends higher up" that reactionary statements are not welcomed at court. declares that the talk of a dissolution of parliament and the creation of a dictatorship is folly. He frankly ayers that the cabi- net must be reorgani2ed but points out that a ministry composed entirely of
 constitutional Democrats could not control legislation without the support of the extreme radicals
 M. stolypin, therefore regards coal ition ministry composed of constitu- tional Democrats and the moderate ele- ments which would work with the government to be the proper solution. He does not regard a peaceful outcome as hopeless and likens the present "times of confusion" to the interreg- mum preceding the election of the Ro- manoffs With the union of the em- peror and the people he believes that Russia will emerge triumphantly from oriSts

THE NEW MEAT LAW
IT WILL AT ONCE BE PLACED IN
 FULL OPERATION.
Secretary Wilson VIII Not 20 on His Vacation Until He Has Perfected Organization for its Enforce
 ment.

Washington, July 2-Secretary Will son of the Department of Agriculture has decided not to enter upon his an nual vacation until he has completed the organization necessary to put into operation the new meat inspection law. He will give practically his entire time to his work for the next two months. The pure food law also will require attention, but he intends to leave this almost wholly to Dr. H. w. Wiley. Chief of the Bureau of Chemistry.
 By direction of the President, Secre- tary Wilson today issued the follow ing statement;
 American live stock are the health lest in the world. The great ranges of the West produce herds of cattle in which the percentage of disease is remarkably small and the federal gov. ernment Ia steadily reducing. by ap- proved scientific methods, this small percentage. The inspection of the ami mals before and at the time of slaugh- ter has always been thorough. It Is true that the Department of Agricul- ture has heretofore lacked the power and the money to provide for an effi- cient supervision of sanitation and the methods of preparation of canned meat food products.
 The legislation which has just be- come effective provides the department
 
 and with ample money to carry 1t into effect. Supervision and inspection will be extended from the pasture to the package. The federal stamp on the can would be a guarantee not only of the healthfulness of the animal but also that the product was prepared in san itary conditions and with the addition of no deletrious chemical or preserva- tive, any meat food products bearing ha will be fit for food.
 With this law In operation 1t may be accepted as a fact that for health fulness and purity the prepared or can ned product will compare favorably with the fresh meat of the United States which is and always has been. the finest in the world.
 The new law is comprehensive, the means for its enforcement are ample and It's execution will be thorough. People at home and abroad may use our meats in confidence"

REPAIRS TO WHITE HOUSE.
Extensive Alterations and Renewals
 will Have to He Made

Will Have to Be Made.
 Washington, July 2.--Since the ad- journment of congress 1t has develop ed that extensive repairs will have to be made to the White House before President Roosevelt and his family re- turn to 1t next autumn. While no definite determination of the matter has been reached 1t may be that the president will not return to Washing ton until late in october instead of arriving here from Oyster Bay about the first of October as usual.
 Congress was asked at It's recent session 70 make a considerable appro- priation for "Extraordinary repairs" at the White House. Some reluctance was manifested by Congress in making the appropriation but sum Of $3o'- 900 finally was authorized to be ex- pended. Practically the whole of this amount will have to be used in making the repairs necessary.
 It is a curious circumstance that the discovery of the necessity for the re- pairs on the White House was made almost coincidentallv with the mur- der by Harry w. Thaw of Stanford White. one of the firm of architects which directed three years ago the re- modelling of the White House. Some of the work done on the White House at that time has failed. It has been found necessary to replace the roofs on both the east and west terraces, either because of faulty material or because the work was rushed to such an extent that early frosts subsequent ly damaged 1t.
 How long 1t will take to make the repairs Is not known but the work will be pressed as rapidly as possipie' If probably will be done under the su- oerintendeney of Colonel Charles 5. Brownwell, superintendent of public buildings and grounds.

 Chicago.

Chicago.
 Chicago, July 2--John N. Faithorn and Fred A. Wapn, former officials of the Chicago and Alton Railroad and the Chicago and Alton Railroad were placed on trial today in the United States District Court on the charge of granting illegal rebates to the Schwarzschiid k Sulzberger Packing Company of this city. A jury was se- cured in q short time and the court was informed that counsel in the case had agreed upon the facts covered in the first eight counts of the indictments and that only small amount of evil dence will be necessary under the re- maining two counts.
 The indictments charge the defend- ants with granting a rebate of S1 on every car of meat shipped from its plant in Kansas City. The defendants claim that the money was paid for an other purpose. The last two counts of the indictments charge that the em- ployes of the packing company were carried by the railroad free of charge because after purchasing tickets in the regular way they would be given re- ceipts and later the amount would be returned by the railroad to the firm and that this constituted a rebate.
