Capital in Darkness.

ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. 3.-St. Petersburg is in darkness tonight. Employes of the electric lighting plants. always the earliest barometric record of political conditions. ceased work during the afternoon, in obedi- ence to call for 9 general strike. This call already has been obeyed bv 2OO0 factory hands in the capital. It will be impossible. however, to predict the success of this universal strike un- til Monday, as Workmen in St. Peters burg and the provinces have two hoIi- days, Saturday. which is the fete day of the Dowager Empress and a great religious feast. and their regular holi- day of Sunday.
 The only other available index to the situation is the railroads. Up to 2 o'clock this morning the railroad men had not needed the call for a general strike
 In the meantime the fate of the Stol- ypiD cabinet swavs in the balance. and Russia is upon the verge of disorders which may lead either to the reign of the militaT yOr prolCtariat. It can be stated definitely that the first steD toward dictatorship may he taken Sun day CT Monday by the nomination of Grand Duke Nicholas to the chief command of all the troops in Russia. This would virtually place him in con- trol of all the disturbed districts of the empire where martial law has been proclaimed.
 It has now been ascertained that the death list on board the cruiser Pamyat Azova included Capt. Sosinsky. two lieutenants, the chief engineer and jun for engineer, the surgeon. a midship- man and chief petty officer. Capt. of the Second Class Mozyroff was nor tally wounded. A priest and two lieu- tenants were slightly wounded. About fifty sailors were killed or wounded.

 YESTERDAY

. The Board of Trade held it's regu- lar meeting yesterday afternoon in the office of City Clerk Hicks in the city hail
 In one of the most enthusiastic ses- sions held since the institution of that organization, the merchants of Bisbee dealt with such problems as are of most interest to them, principal among which was the discussion of the fire insurance status of companies that were involved in the San Francisco disaster
 Measures were decided upon by which the dead beat who is occasion. ally abroad in the land will be suffi- ciently suppressed to do away with many of the losses now sustained by this class of characters. Just what means were decided upon none of the members of the board would diyulge.
 Secretary Hicks was instructed to take up with a New York company which issues protection policies against credit losses the matter of in surfing the members of the Bisbee Board, and this will be done at an ear ly date.

LAST RAY OF HOPE FUR BUCK

resenting Buck, is basing all his hopes ou the document. :.
 Buck, the murderer, is at present in the death cell at San Quentin peniten- tiary, where he is awaiting the de- cision of the supreme court. All dur ing his trial the man pretended to be either insane or dopey, but since his incarceration in the death cell ne has improved wonderfully and is now in excellent health.
 The insanity plea, however, was one on which he based his fight for life, and it is the same plea that he is pre- senting to the supreme court that he may receive new trial.
 The defense for insanity at the time of the trial was remarkable
 in Bisbee he leaned too far over the edge of an elevator wh,re being lifted from a mine shaft, and he fell back down the shaft, sustaining many in- juries.

FORGER GETS IN TROUBLE WITH

Yesterday morning John Keefe, aged 15. was brought before Judge McDon- aid for forging the name of a mine- at the Copper Queen store. IL seems

 deducted from the pay check of a man named Francis, who works for the C.

 hot the boys first offense. as he has several times before gone to the Cop per Queen store and after making pur- chases, varying in amount. signed the name of Francis. Yesterday morning
 he went to the store. and after order ing a generous quantity of cantaloupes. beans and other delicacies. again took his pen ir hand and dipped it in the ink, but he had bucked the Copper Queen credit system once too often. and was caught. An officer was tpIe-
 phoned for and the boy was taken be-
 fore Judge Mcdonald. The judge read the riot act to the boy until the youngster started to cry and vail and beg the justice not to send him to
 the Reform School The justice was
 aware of the boys former transgres-
 sions. and in order to impress on him the turpitude of forgery and show him to what he would come if he did not stop it, had him locked up for day or two. The boy told the justice that his father had thrashed him for his former transgressions, but it is to he hoped that the day or two in jail will
 have more effect.

State.
Mr.. w. l.. VanDuzor, who was in
charge Of the Disston drainage, and
probably knows more than any other
man In Florida about this class OF work,
has arAlyzcd the figures Of Mr. Strana-
han, who Is IN charge OF the drainage
work now being done by the State.
Taking Mr.. Stranahan's statements,
Mr.. VanDuz0r arrives at the following
conclusions:
referring to the interview with Mr..
Stranahan, let US stop and figure lit
tie. He states the dredge called Ever
glades is throwing out l, 800 cubic yards
daily Taking this as correct, II means
the Everglades Is cutting IS feet of ca
nal daily. Operators of dredges find
twenty days per month the maximum
averape. Taking this as basis, It will
take the Everglades four and half
months TO complete one mile of canal.
The distance from New river 10 Lake
Okeechobee the shortest possible route
Is 80 miles. Therefore, the Everglades
will be nineteen and half years reach
ing Lake Okeechobee. The life, Of O
dredge Is FIVE years, consequently dur
ing the nineteen and a half years three
dredges, Everglades Nos l, 2, 3 and 4,
will have 10 be constructed TO complete
this. cut. II is proposed by Gov. Brow
ard to follow the Eyerglade with the
second dredge taking Captains Skinner
and Cassidy's description. would sug-
gest she be named the None SUCH,
making a second cut the same width
and depth as the first. The average

oil, etc, Ia 81 200 per month; wear and

monthly expense for each dredge, ST.

Mr.. Stranahan, the Everglades. will cut
80. coo cubic yards per month, at cost
OF s., 033. 80, which would be 6.77 cents
per cubic yard. Without accidents, loss
By FIRE or otherwise, working twenty
days every month for nineteen and q
half years, the cost Of the canal from
New river TO Lake Okeechobee will be
$3.50, 800. This Is only one Of many ca
nails proposed TO be- dug. No matter
what the kindergarten at Tallahassee
figures Il, the above Is minimum. The
actual cost Is liable 90 be more
When we consider the fact that tlns

and require nearly twenty years for

n the world, pays high compliments "a
the richness aud value Of muck lands
Tor the production Of sugar:
'PhiIadelphia, Pa, March ~, 1850
"'TO Mr.. Hamilton Disston.
Dear Sir In answer to yours Of
the 10Th instant, In which you ask my
opinion regarding Florida as a sugar
producing State, take pleasure IN say
ing that, during my recent trip 10 In
speet your sugar operations, my sur
prise was great at finding such . coun-
try for the growth Of sugar cane. The
coil Is az rich Is any that have ever
seen, and, with proper cultivation, the
yield should be equal to that Of any
other country on the face Of the globe.
% i congratulate you upon the bright
prospect for the future Of the sugar
business In the State Of Florida
Yours truly,
"'claus spreckles.
While fair commissioner Of Osceola
county, at the State fair in Tampa. Mr..
VanDuzer distributed hundreds Of these
pspers, exhibited the muck coil and fine
specimens Of sugar cane grown thereon,
and in every way advertised the value
and prOductiyeness Of these lands that
are Identical with those lands Of the
Everglades alluded to and before drain
age were covered with the same saw
grass and aquatic growth.
His comparison of the present condi-
ton of the St Cloud plantation Is by
no means correct; in 1889 the canal,
at low water, readily afforded steam
boat transportation and was readily
traversed by such steapers as the
blOridelphia, Okeechobee, Colonist, and
others.
Since that time railroad and other
bridges have been built across 1t, sew
eral dams have been pat in and the
drainage destroyed; so that today at
at high water, IL would be difficult to

canal Much Of the land formerly in
cultivation has reverted to a marsh or
