VICE ADMIRAL
ASSASSINATED
COMMANDER OF THE PORT At
ST. PETERSBURG is
STABBED.

St. Petersburg, May 17.-Vice Ad-
miral kuzmich, commanding the port,
who was very unpopular with the work
men, was assassinated here yesterday
by workmen whose May day demon
stration he had attempted to stop. The
admiral was killed at the new admir-
atty works, a government institution.
When most of the $1,000 men employ
ed there reported for duty at o'clock
this morning they wanted Immediate
ly to march in body and celebrate
the Russian May day, but finally agreed
to work to o'clock in the afternoon.
The admiral however, made speech
to the men, saying that he could not
agree to their leaving work at 2
O'Clock. and the matter was left open.
At about $3.50 a. M. according to an
officer who was at the gate of the
works. the admiral was emerging from
small shop in the works when a
workman, who had been concealed
around the corner of the building
leaped on Kizmich from behind and
drove a long dagger into his back
The admiral fell forward on his face
which was badly cut by stones, and
died Immediately.
The assassin fed into large forge
where he was lost among the men em
ployed there. The works were prompt
ly surrounded by troops and police
but the search for the murderer was
unavailing, his comrades protesting ig
norance of his identity.
The police say it is evident that the
assassination of the admiral had been
planned in advance. The dagger
which was found ON the spot, was con.
cealed in a round stick-like sword cane

SULTAN ONCE
MORE YIELDS
BUT NOT UNTIL BRITISH WAR.
Snip ARRIVES IN HAR.
Dor.

Constantinople, May 1.-THE sui
tan's complete submission to the An
gloEgyptian demand was only given
some hours after the expiration of the
British ultimatum, and it was not un-
til noon Monday, that Ambassador
OConner was in position to notify
the British government that it's de-
mands were completely accepted. The
word "delineation," which the sultan
considered implied the existence of a
frontier, whereas he maintained that
Egypt is part of Turkey, nearly wreck
ed the negotiations.
Numerous notes with the necessary
trades were drawnn up on saturday eve
ming and communicated to the British
embassy only to be rejected and return
ed to the Turkish government. Final
ly, shortly after the expiration of the
ultimatum, the British ambassador
brought matters to climax by per-
sonal visits to Tewfik Pasha, the for
eign minister, and to the grand vizier,
to whom he impaired the designs of
the British government in the event
of noncompliance, and brought the
Turkish government to a realization
of it's perilous position.
Yields as Usual.
In view of the assurances of these
ministers, the ambassador consented
to - hours further grace, and in the
early hours of Monday morning a spec
lal meeting of the council of minister's
was summoned at the Yildiz palace
and the sultan consented to the accep
lance of all of the British demands.
The arrival at Constantinople of the
British service vessel Imogene, doubt
less helped to convince the Turkish
government, and it was presumed she
came to take away the ambassador in
the event of failure of the negotia
lions.
Diplomatic circles consider that
Great Britain has gained great point
in the fact that the Turkish notes con
stitute Turkeys first recognition of
Great Britain's position as the protect
or of Egypt.

One Else to Honestly Misunder-
stand Him.
REFERENCE TO CONFERENCES
Chandler Does Not Care to Discuss
the Issue Rased-Not Tillman's
Emissary.

Washington, May 1.-THE sensa
tional rate bill incident in the senate
Saturday, during which Mr.. Tillman
on the authority of former Senator
Chandler. made statements regarding
the presidents course in connection
with the pending rate bill, some OF
which statements were denied by MI
Lodge, had its sequel this evening
when a statement was issued by the
White House, giving an account of the
subject on the part of the president
and Attorney General Moody. The
statement comprised two letters, one
from the president to Senator Allison
and the other from Attorney General
Moody to the president both state
ments dated today. The president
says:

Mr.. Chandler or anyone else, was there
the slightest opportunity for any hon

The president says that, as to many
of the amendments. including the so
called Long, Overman. Bacon and
Spooner amendments. he had said h
should be entirely satisfied to have
them in the bill and suggested modif

that 'as to none of the amendments

Nervousness is very common among
women. This condition is due to anemic
nerve centers. The nerve centers are
the reservoirs of nervous vitality. These
centers become bloodless for want of
proper nutrition.
This is especially true in the spring
season. Every spring host o: invallds

Digestion furnishes nutrition for the
nerve centers. Properly digested food
furnishes these reservoirs of life with
vitality which leads to strong, steady
nerves, and thus nourishes life.
Peruna is in great favor among
women, especially those who have voca-
lions that are trying to the nerves.
Peruna furnishes the lasting vigor
for the nerves that such people need.

to Senator Chandler were the same as
those made to Mr. Allison and other
senators of both parties. He says he
was asked to see Mr.. Chandler as the
representative of Mr.. Tillman, in
charge of the bill, and Attorney Gen.
eral Moody had conversations with
Senators Tillman and Bailey that were
such as had been held with many 9TH
err senators to determine the phrase
olOgy and draft of the amendments
proposed by them.
The president states that he became
convinced that it was impossible for
senator's, with advantage" to use him
as an intermediary and suggested to
all to whom he spoke that they CON-
municate with Senator Allison.
The president says that his own
opinion. that the Allison amendment
in no way changed the court review
as provided in the original Hepburn
bill, is also the opinion of Attorney
General Moody and Secretaries Root
and Taft
The attorney generals letter gives
an account at the presidents request,
of the conference which Mr. Moody
had at the presidents direction. He
says he advised the president that he
had not at any stage become finally
committed beyond recall to any form
of language ir any part of the bill, and
the president affirmed the wisdom of
that course. He reviews the discus
sion of interlOcutory injunctions, and
concludes that there was nothing in
the conversation" between the SEN
president to any particular amend
ment.
What TiIIman Says.
Senator Tilman talked freely to-
night with a number of his callers
about the statement issued by Presi-
dent Roosevelt. He expressed his pref
erence, however not to be quoted
pointing out that whatever he wished
to say on the subject of the state
ment, he would say on the floor of the
senate. He expects that the question
will be brought to the front in some
way in the senate.
He discussed the presidents state
ment tonight with former Senator
Chandler and he urged Mr.. Chandler
TO issue a statement, giving a full his
tory Of the whole matter. Senator
Tillman wanted the fact to go into the
newspapers that he did not in any way
initiate the negotiations with the pres
ident regarding the Democratic sup
port for the rate bill and that he did
not ask Senator Chandler to go to the
White House.
Former Senator Chandler tonight re-
fused to discuss the statement from
the White House. He indicated that
he did not expect to issue a statement
at this time bearing on the subject
He also indicated that he was anxious
to have railroad rate legislation enact
ed. Regarding his visits to the White
House, Mr.. Chandler said that pre-
vious to his invitation to call to see
the president on March 81. followins
which he conferred with the presiden
regarding the pending rate bill. he hat
not been at the White House for abou
a month and that, previous to that in
vitation he had no immediate inten
ton of going there He said that hi
did not go to the White House as ar
emissary of Mr.. Tillman, but that he
went there in response to the presi
dents invitation.

Eggs at IS cents dozen before the end
Of the present week ami 20 cents dozen
before the first of December is likely TO
be the outcome OF the present scarcity.
During last week the wholesale price Of

OF the great scarcity OF fresh eggs they
are likely to advance again. Although
the retail price did not advance last week,
remaining firm at ss cents, dealers said
that II the present wholesale price con-
tinues they win Be forced to increase the
retail price proportionataly.
There is always a scarcity Of eggs at
this time OF the year. but dealers say the
scarcity is more acute this year than
