RUSSIANS UNDECEIVED
THEIR RIGHTS RETOKED.
ObnoriOass Lac, Belieued Toid. Noru
Promulgated.

St Petersburg. May s. 1920 a. m.-Another of
the kaleidoscope changes IN the political sltua-
ton TO which Russia is becoming accustomed
occurred late last night when the draft OF the
fundamental law. which was supposed 70 have
perished with the witte government. was off,
cially promulgated and made the permanent ha-
sis OF the Russian state. unalterable except on
the initiative OF Emperor Nicholas or his sue
cessors.
Though the draft OF the fundamental law has
undergone considerable editing and numerous
minor changes have been made in IL. in essence
It remains identical with the summary made
public on April "a. which evoked a storm OF
anger and condemnation by the dominant LIB
eral party Published at the present time. after
the people had been led TO believe that the un-
popular draft had been dropped and after the
dismissal Of the OLD Cabinet was accepted as
an indication OF the desire on the part OF the
government TO Join hands with Parliament. the
news will arouse still greater indignation. and
threatens TO undo an the work OF Professor
MilukoF and the other Constitutional Demo-
cratic leaders in the cause OF moderation.
The new fundamental law signed on May 5
contains eighty-two articles dealing with the
nature OF the imperial power. the rights and
duties OF citizens the methods Of legislation the
rights and limitations OF the National Assembly
and Council Of the Empire. and the constitution
and responsibilities Of the Council Of Ministers.
The only modification in the constitution as
published which finds favor is the elimination
salaries and pensions Of officials. All the other
changes are in the direction Of further buttress-
ing the imperial power. protecting the crown
lands and properties from interference by Par
lament and giving the Emperor power 20 con-
clude loans Independently should Parliament re-
fuse the pass the budget.

HOdcarriers Broke Negotiation
When Employers Won Toss.

The hodcarriers and building trades laborers
in Hudson County. n. J.. struck yesterday. The
flip Of a coin caused the men to go out. The ar

and the continuance of the hod for the convey
ance of bricks to the building. It was decided
that an umpire was necessary.

should name the umpire. The employers won
the toss but the arbitration ended then and
there and the men decided to strike Their de-
mand is for So a day for hodcarriers and So % a

Commons against the bill by the former Pre-
mier, Mr.. Balfour. Mr.. Wyndham and others.
T. P. O'Connor, Irish Nationalist on behalf OF

genuine attempt to bring the education fabric
Of the schools under popular control and that

< RAILROAD COMPLEXION.

Mercy, no; lie eT bother with q veil." she said. As she said 1t, she rubbed her handkerchief Lriskly over her face with the tip of one finger. And the kerchief came of black! Now, she thought, when she thoroughly scrubbed that face she would get all the dust and grime out of the pores. But why get 1t in, in the first place?
 There is no practice more damaging to good looks that the habit of HIing back and forth on railway trains or through dusty city streets with the delicate skin of the face exposed to all the soot and grime in the air, says the Philadelphia Bulletin. Careful women never do it. They always wear, when travelling, plain chiffon veil--not one of fancy or lace or mesh, mind you, but close-woven veil for real protection. This is tied over the hat, drawn snugly under the chin and fastened firmly to the back of the hat.
 It has certain trim air, but the most important thing is the service it renders in saving the face from &C., quiring an unnecessary and appalling amount of dirt.
 The complexion go protected will stay fresh and clean many more years. Particularly should the business wom- an who rides back and forth into the city daily adopt this precaution, lest she find herself the unhappy possessor of "the road complexion"

Bayonne and Jersey City Shaken
 When :Nsphtha Tank Blew Up.
 JERSEY CITY. \. J., May 17.-All of Bayonne. part of Jersey City and the entire north shore of Staten Island were rocked as by an earthquake when a tank containing J0O.000 gallons of naphtha exploded in the works of the Standard oil company at Constable Hook.
 The cover of the tank was torn in two by the force of the explosion. Part of it fell on the tracks of the Jersey Central railroad on the mainland. The rest was blown half a mile out into Staten Island sound.
 Windows were broken and frame buildings thrown out of plumb by the force of the explosion at Richmond Terrace. New Brighton. on Staten Is land. The public school at New Brigh. ton was temporarily dismissed because of a panic among the pupils.
 The roar and shock was particularly severe along the water front. where 600 employees of the plaster works st New Brighton and POO girls In fac. tory across the railroad tracks desert. ed their tasks and rushed for safety.
 Following the explosion the naphtha caught fire. creating dense cloud of black smoke. which foated out over Staten Island. Navigation was entire. ly suspended from St George to Ser sen Point for . time. 90 thick was the smoke. Four tanks In the path of the blaze were emptied by emergency methods.

eREELY DEFENDS HIS MEN.
Not . siasie Case of Killing by Reg
 ulsr Soldiers at Frisco.

ular Soldiers at Frisco. WASHINGTON, May IT. = General Greely has reported to the war depart ment from San Francisco that the re- ported killing of large number of people by the army during the San Francisco fire Is incorrect. His dis patch Is as follows:
 -Eastern papers received disclose ex- tensiye and detailed dispatches alleg- ing that large numbers of persons were killed by the army during the San Francisco fire. Such dispatches are, to speak mildly. incorrect and misleading. their reflections on both San Francisco and the army being entirely unjustifia- bie.
 .rhe frightful disaster which threw a quarter of a million people into the streets was marked by conditions of order. obedience and propriety almost incredible.
 -Hysteria. excitement. crime and VI. olenee were noticeable only by their practical absence. Normally but one death weekly occurs In San Francisco through crime. In four weeks covering the Are none have been reported.
 -Investirntions by Captain Vim cov- ering a week or more have been made through the city coroner. chief of po- lice. board Of heslsh snd military com manfer. Tbese investigations fail to disciose q single instance of killing by rexulsr soldIers.-

TO LEAD THE WORLD.
Congress Votes 8 Hundred
 Millions For Navy.
PLAN MOST POWERFUL SHIP AFLOAT
Mir. Williams, Tn Joking Mood, Pso- poses New War Vessel to Challenge English pveadnonght to Naval
 Duel on LonE Island.

OueA OM AOhB AsAonus
 WASHINGTON, May 1.-The house completed consideration of the naval appropriations bill and authorized the construction of great battleship to carry the most powerful armament and armor of any war vessel in the world.
 Strong efforts were made to strike all new warships from the bill, but the house registered its emphatic approval of the further upbuilding of the navy.
 The bill carries $99,G29,215.77 for the fiscal year 1906-07. The senate will proba bly increase this to a little more than $100.OOO,OOO.
 When the provisions for increase of the navy were reached Mir. Burton lO) moved to strike out the whole para graph. The present programme of au- thorized warship construction, he said, would require four years for compile ton, and the ships already required more mem than were available to man them.
 Mir. Burton figured that Jan. 1, 1912, would see the completion of American warships already authorized, and he thought it would also see an agreement among the nations for suspension of increase of armament.
 Mir. Williams raised laugh by offer. ing an amendment providing for the construction of the largest battleship in the world to be named the "Scared of Nothing and that challenge to a duel be issued to the British battleshir Dreadnought. the combat to take place of Long Island, with the president cabinet, members of congress, diplo. mats and others as invited guests. MT Crumpacker, who was in the chair ruled the amendment out of order amid much merriment. .N
 Counting in the maintenance of the army and navy, the soldiers homes the pension roll and all other expendi. lures. Mir. Tawney declared 66a per cent of the total government revenues were eaten up by the continuing bur dens of past wars and in preparation for wars of the future. These expenses must be cut down, he said, or taxes in creased.
 The Burton amendment was voted down. as was an amendment for 16.0OO ton battleship in place of one oi unlimited tonnage.
