Revolutionary Activity.

Moscow, June S.-There is a nos
 ticeable increase in revolutionary
 activity here and 1t is evident that
 the leaders are preparing to take ad-
 vantage of the first opportunity to start an armed uprising. The work men of the factories and mills are being systematically armed with Mauser rifles and drilled under the supervision of army reserve soldiers. In spite of the oppressive measures adopted by the authorities revolu- tionary meeting are held nightly in the industrial sections. The leaders appear to be confident that the mo- rale of the troops of the garrison Is undermined as they have received from some regiments promises of support in the event of conflict. Revolutionary emissaries have been sent out in all directions into the country to incite the land-hungry peasants to appropriate land and strike on the big estates. The plan evidently is to secure unity of action in the country and cities and inaug- urate a conflict with a general strike. The leaders evidently hope for a complete rupture between the gov ernment and parliament. which would furnish the necessary oppor- tunity for an uprising. The situation has greatly alarmed the business men of Moscow and the big landlords of the country.

ANIMALS WASHED AWAY
DeIuge at JohnstoWn Picked Up the Cages at the Zoo and Sent Them
 Floating Down Stream
WOMAN DEAD, CHILD DROWNED

Johnstown, Pa, June S.-The cages containing the animals in the Zoo at Island park were washed away by yesterdays flood and went floating down the stream. No trace had been found of them last night, and it is thought the animals have been drown- ed. The banks of the Conemaugh are streWn with wreckage of 0uthouses, sheds and other small buildings.
 The one tragedy of the flood occur red on the stone bridge of the Penn syIvania railroad in this city. \ wo- man said to be Slav stood watching the water rush beneath the bridge. She was holding an infant when train rushed upon her killing her and cutting her body badly, while the child fell into the stream, and was car ried away on the rushing torrent.
 At Latrobe, in Westmoreland coun- ty, the streets of the town were food ed and merchants were obliged to re more their stocks to place of safety Baggaley, mining village situated in a gulley near Nine Mile Run, was lOT d tluie III peIiiOuS posilioH. Ahc bridge spanning the stream was car ried away and lodged below the town, forming dam which backed the wa ter into the village. So rapidly did the water rise that many residents were taken from their houses on improvised rafts. It was rumored that the walls of the reservoir had burst and this added to the terror. This proved to be but a rumor however and after many hours spent on the hills the residents were enabled to return to their homes. Damage is reported also from Derry. Bradenville and adjacent towns and villages. Crops and fruit trees suffer ed much damage and throughout all the countries visited by the storm the country roads have been seriously in- jured.

FILLED rHIRrY.rHREE TRAINS.
Brought Lancashire Churchmen to Protest Against Educational Bill.

London. June S.-Thirty-three special trains brought to London this morning 12.000 Lancashire church. men to protest against the educa- tion bill. The protestors proceeded to Regents park where they massed and. accompanied by bands of music and carrying banners. marched through the principal thoroughfares to Albert hall.
 The procession was headed by the bishops of London and Manchester and included many clergymen. There was an immense gathering in Albert hall. The chief resolution recorded in behalf of the Lancashire chnrchmen an emphatic protest against the bill on the ground that 1t is destructive of all forms of religious instruction in the elementary schools. contend ing that the only true safeguard of religious education in the schools Is continuation of the denominational schools.
 The visitors for the most part were factory employees. forming a typically Lancashire crowd. but all classes were represented and they all came at their own expenses. consequently the protest was more significant than most of such demonstrations.

Will Retire Goremykin.

St Petersburg, June s.-According to reliable reports from Peterhof Elm
 peror Nicholas has about decided to retire Premier Goremykin. From the first it was apparent to outsiders that NJ. Goremykin did not possess the force. capacity or skill necessary to steer hte ship of state in the prefent crisis and his majesty who Is etxreme- Iy dissatisfied with the premier's sor- ry failure to make any headway to- ward a impeachment with the lower house of parliament is now ready to sacrifice him. But the emperor seems to he torn by conflicting councils. A few of his advisers are urging him to make a frank surrender and aecede to parliament's demand for a minis try from the opposition majority. These influences are hardly likely to prevail against the party headed ny General Trepoff. which believes that no further concessions should be made.
 The cabinet itself. under the lead ership of N. Kokovsof. the minister of finance, and NJ. Stichinsky. minis ter of agriculture. the rivals Of NJ Goremykin. is In open rebellion and with the support they are receiving from the court the rebels ar conf dent cf being able to unhorse N.

TUCKER PATIENTLY
 AWAITING NEWS Doomed Man His Not Yet Been Told of the Adverse Decision in
 His Case
WILL BE EXECUTED MONDAY
Prisoner is Becoming Very Restless His Legal Advisers Will Tell
 Him Gov. Guilds Decision.

Boston, June s.-Up to 10:30 o'clock to-day Charles l.. Tucker had not been advised of Governor Curtis Guild, jr's, adverse decision on the question of committing to life impris- onment Fuckers death sentence. James IA Vahey, attorney for the con- demned man, announced last night that he should acquaint Tucker with the situation to-day, and it was ex- pected that he would arrive before noon.
 Tucker upon awakening this morn- ing manifested great anxiety to know whether the governor had reached decision. The prison officials, how ever, deemed it wise that he should hear the news from his legal advis- CTS.
 The death watch reported that the prisoner did not sleep soundly dur ing the night, his restlessness sey- eral times attracting their attention.
 Arrangements for Fuckers execu- tion have been practically complete for some days. The death chamber is scarcely dozen steps from the doors of Fuckers cell. Under the provis- ions of the sentence the execution may take place at any time after midnight Saturday, the warrant reading. that the man shall be put to death during the week of June 10. It has been customary, however, to let Sunday pass in the case of the death of prisoner and carry out the laws penalty between midnight of Sunday and sunrise of Monday. Un- der these circumstances there seems to be general expectation that Tuck CT will be put to death shortly after midnight on Monday.

The Representative Received the Humorous
 Document This Morning
PACKERS ARE CLEANING UP IN HASTE TO-DAY
NEW TOILET ROOMS, CLEAN TOWELS AND ADDITIONAL DRESS ING ROOM-ENGLISH PROTECTION ADVOCATE TALKS ABOUT THE CONDITION AT CHICAGO AND THE
 PRESIDENTS REPORT.

Washington, June S.-President Roosevelt to-day forwarded to Rep- resentative Wadsworth the report made to him by committee of the department of agriculture, regarding the conditions in the Chicago meat packing houses. Accompanying the report was a letter from the presi- dent in which he pointed out that there is no conflict in substance be- tween the Neill-Reynolds report and that of the agricultural department experts. It is said in the latest re- port that the packers exhibited an almost humorous haste to clean up, repave and even to plan for future changes. New toilet rooms are being provided with additional dressing rooms and clean towels. The report further says that this haste towards reforms would have been amusing If it were not so nearly tragic. The in yestigations are not yet completed, says the president.

THE BREACH WIDENS
Russian Government Insists On Months Delay Before Consideration of the
 Death Penalty Bill
THE LOWER HOUSE IN SESSION

St Petersburg, June 8.-The storm produced by over night developments
 broke as soon as the lower house of parliament opened to-day, exposing the split between the radical and more moderate elements of the op- position and proving that the leaders lof the constitutional democrats will be unable much longer to hold their extreme allies of the peasant work men group, who openly favor parlia- ment shaking off governmental con trol and proceeding independently. The firmer attitude of the govern ment to demand a months time for consideration of the law providing for the abrogation of the death pen alty in accordance with the statutory privilege, was further emphasized by Premier Goremykin's reply to an in |terpellation on the subject of tue Black Hundred publications, which were communicated in writing. It practically amounted to a fiat refusal to make any explanation, passing his refusal on the ground that the house was exceeding it's rights.
 When the governments decision to insist on months delay at .he death penalty bill, contained in the form of communication from the ministers of war, the navy and the interior, was communicated to the house, M. Naboukoff, in behalf of the constitutional democrats, offered a resolution accepting the governments h,,k Sv1 ntt Ja handing the suspension of all death sentences, contending that the gov ernment must accept the notice of the bill as stay of executions. This was the signal for violent protests from the socialistic and peasants workmen group.
 Several times President Mouromt self was compelled to call M. AlladiI to order as the latter continued his denunciation of the government. During the course of his remarks M. Alladin said:
 'So soon as the reign of liberty began the government commenced to publish Black Hundred dispatches--'
 President Mouromtseff here called the speaker to order, saying, That is not proved"
 Continuing, M. .Alladin said:
 ''It may not have been proven to the satisfaction of the ministry, but it has been proved to the satisfaction of the whole Russian people.
 Wild cheers from the left greeted this statement of the peasant party leader.
 M. Sipiaguine of Sevastopol. . nephew of the late minister of the interior of that name, called attcn- ton to the situation at Sevastopol. where, he said, he was sure several innocent persons were about to be ex- ecuted for participation in the bomb outrages of May 27.

Looking It Up at London.

London, June S.-Sir Howard Vim cent, conservative member of parlia- ment for central Sheffield and one of the most pronounced advocates of
 protection and preferential treat ment for colonial products, has giv- en notice of his intention to inter- pellate the president of the board of trade in the house of commons on the subject of the meat packing dis closures In the United States. His question is evidently drawn up with the view of extracting information which may be utilized by the fiscal reformers in pushing their propa- ganda. Sir Howard wants to know what is the total amount of the im- portation of American canned meats, game, fish, fruits and other preserved foods into the United Kingdom and the British empire generally for the years 1900 and 1905 respectively and, in view of the recent disclosures in the United States and President Rooseyelt's public structures, what steps the board of trade proposes to take in order to protect British con- sumers from the evil effects of such foods.

CARRYING OFF METAL.
Watchman Anderson Scared Away
 Burglars from Buckle Co.

On Wenesday evening an attempt
 was made to burglarize the plating
 room of the Waterbury Buckle fac. tory, but although the crooks had a
 large amount of metal ready to carry off they were scared away by the night watchman, Andrew Anderson. who first went looking for help before he cared to encounter the men who were doing the pilfering.
 About II o'clock Wednesday even- ing the watchman heard some strange noise in the rear part of the shop. An derson who halls from Sweden immed- lately put his hand on his hip feeling for his gun as all watch would do on such occasions. but when he saw that there were two fellows in the factory he thought it would be wise to first go and summon help. Therefore leav- ing the burglars to continue collecting the goods. he went 10 the South Main street entrance and hollered for help. John Dwyer's store across the street was still open and there were a couple of fellows sitting on the front steps.
 Help. help. come quickly, yelled Anderson. The fellows hurried to the door and Anderson told them that there were burglars In the factory. three men then went back to the room hut the fellows had gone and left the goods behind them. They had collected several copper plates which weigh many pounds and had them all ready out side the door and would have completed their job successfully had Anderson stayed away somewhat longer. The thieves were no where in sight when Anderson reached the door near the river. The detective depart ment was notified and Detective Eee- gan was sent down there but he got no track of the metal pinchers.
 IT Anderson had endeavored to cap lure the fellows he would undouhfef- ly have done % and put under arrest those clever thieves who during the past year have pinehed many hundred pounds of metal
