tionalists Accept Monarchy;

ST. Petersburg, Jan. 25.--Notwith
standing their victories over the reyolp-
tionists and the apparent opportunity 70
turn their backs on the recently promul
gated reforms, the emperor and his ad
visers have taken another long step in
the direction Of constitutionalism by de-
Gliding to entrust the first imperial dou-
mo with a large measure Of constituent
powers. The ministerial cabinet and the
council Of the empire is now engaged in
discussing changes in the organic laws
OF the empire and the powers TO be con
ferred upon the douma are considered
necessary to bring these laws into har-
mony with the spirit Of the emperor

new path on which Russia has entered.

Car Gains by Concessions.
\ BY yielding to the popular desire on
these points, the emperor has gained q

II is considered possible that he has fore
stalled any attempt on the part Of Tho

stituent powers without imperial con

EIGHT YEARS BUILDING

Washington, Jan. 25.--A lock canal at

than eight years to build, o. 4 sea-lerel
canal at u cost Of about $3.50 100000
and from twelve 70 fifteen years 70
build, were The two problems discussed
Tuesday by the Senate onlmittce on
Interoceanic Canals. The lock type was
favored BIZ Chief Engineer John F.
Stevens, who was before the COMMITTEES
all day and returned at go o'clock yes
terday afternoon. Informal expressions
of members of the committee favor Mr..
Stevens recommendations. The ex-
animation Of Mr.. Stevens was conducted
In executive session, as the COMMITTEES
had before II the majority ana minority
reports " the Board OF Consulting En-
gineers on the type Of the canal, which
Teports have not been acted upon by
the Isthnian Canal Commission, nor
bv President Roosevelt. The opinion
was expressed BY Mi. Stevens that Il
lock canal would supply al the needs
of commerce and that practically the
only argument that could be made in
favor of the sea level type was in the
time that would be saved in conveying
ships from ocean to ocean.
From the general discussion Of the
reports, ii appeared that the committee
was almost unit in favor of building
the canal by contract Mr.. Stevens, it il
said, Il not opposed to this plan, and IN
fact, it is reported that he told the COM
mittee II would be wise to give this
question careful consideration as soon
as II had been decided what type Of
canal shall be constructed. The con-
strlction Of 4 central lake 70 receive tht
waters oil the Chagres River il is said
would permit steam vessels Of the larg
est type to pass through the lake under
their own power and thereby make aiosi

A few WORDS

The word tonic covers multitude
of sins. People in all walks Of life take
tones and these tonics range from whis-
KEY straight down to iron pills. Those
who take their whiskey straight are to
be commended for one thing namely
their frunkness. They eheerfully admit
that they take alcoholic beverages ana
