ADMIRAL FATALLY SHOT.
Chouknin, Suppressor of Black Sea
MutinY, is Wounded.

ST.. Petersburg, July 12.-An attempt
was made at l o'clock this afternoon at
Sevastopol to assassinate Adm iral
Chouknin, commander of the Black sea
feet. The admiral was wounded and
taken to hospital.
The would be-assassin is a sailor,
who hid in the bushes and shot at the
admiral as he was walking in the gar
den of his villa. The culprit has not
been apprehended.
Admiral Chouknin's condition is ex-
tremely serious. The, bullet lodged in
his lungs, making breathing difficult
The doctors hold out no hope of his re-
cOvery.
The admiral's assailant is thought to
be one of the sailors of the battleship
Otchakoff and his act is supposed to be
in revenge for the execution of Lieuten-
ant Schmidt, the revolutionary leader
Admiral Chouknin was universally hat
ed by his sailors and at the time of the
execution of Schmidt the revolutionists
condemned him to death, 100 of their
number pledging themselves to carry
out the sentence.

ment was not presented before the sail

Big BUILDING BOOM HAS BEGUN
When Insurance Companies Pay UF
Reconstruction of Metropolis
Will Proceed in Rush.

San Francisco, July 12.-Although
the city's building laws were in a
chaotic state during the month of June,
building permits were issued to the
value of 81, 800, 900, and in this sum
are not included those one story tenn
porary structures which may be erected
for a time without special permit
Now that the building law has been
promulgated, reconstruction will take
its real start. 1t is hampered solely by
the sloWness of the insurance COM
panies.
Up to the present time but SIS, 000,-
600 has been paid out in insurance
Were the various companies to loosen
their purse strings az the situation de-
mands, San Francisco would at once
enter upon building boom such as
has never been known before. As il
is, plans at this transitory stage are be-
ing drawn for dozen tall buildings to
be erected in the heart of the burned
district.
An Oakland department store, OBJ.
serving that it was unable to meet its
augmented trade by the small order
system, determined to place an order
for train load of goods in the East.
A few days before the goods arrived,
the proprietor OF the Oakland store be-
came alarmed, fearing he had placed
an order beyond his capacity to handle
He telephoned to a large department
store in San Francisco, asking to be re.
lieved of half of the consignment. The
San Francisco firm consented.
When the goods arrived, the San
Franciscan disposed of them before he
had fairly placed the goods on the
shelves, telephoned to his Oakland
friend, purchased the rest of the con
signment and disposed of it with til
same alacrity as he had done the frs
part. This simply illustrates that Sar
Francisco is not to be displaced as the
main trade center.
The bridging of the bay, which was

Plans to Suppress Revolt.

st. Petersburg, July II. - The pre-
parations which the War office has
been making at all principal cities to
meet an armed revolutionary movement
prove to have been very elaborate. The
plans for the defense of Riga have
fallen into the hands of the revolu-
tionary paper Misla, which this morn
ing publishes the entire plans OF de-
fense.
The garrison is divided into three
divisions of two battalions of infantry,
half company of Cossacks and three
machine guns each, to prevent the in
vasion of the city from three open
sides, namely, the canal, the dam and
the river Duna.

Turmoil Grows in Strength.

Odessa, Russia, July 11.-Agrarian
outrages and politico-industria strikes
occur daily, and are alarmingly spread
ing in the Southern provinces. The re-
voting peasantTy are now evidently or
ganized and led by professional propa-
gandists. In an interview today mar
shal of the nobility of Kherson ex-
pressed the firm conviction that the
situation is inevitably and rapidly
drifting to a colossal and calamitous
uprising of the peasants against the
landowners and that the movement
will be supported by the soldiers.

SHOT BY SISTER.
Slayer of Holy Roller CreffieId MUIR
dered in Seattle.

Seattle, July Is. = Esther Mitchell
shot and killed her brother George, the
slayer of Franz Edmund Creffield, in
the Union depot at AGO O'Clock yes
terday afternoon, as George and his
brother Perry were on their wav to
take Northern Pacific train for Port
land.
Miss Mitchell was walking behind
the two brothers, in company with a
third brother, Fred. She had gone to
the depot for the purpose of killing her
brother, and though she greeted him
with smile and hearty handshake,
she loitered behind to get her opportu-
nifty. A revolver purchased the day
before by Mrs. Creffield for the assassi-
nation was carried concealed under a
cape thrown carelessly over Esther
Mitchell's left arm.
Fred Mitchell offered to carry the
cape, and as she banded it to him, the
sister raised her revolver and fred
The bullet struck young Mitchell be-
hind the left ear and he died instantly.
AZ the gun was brought up Fred
Mitchell leaped to seize the weapon
but he was too late. He grabbed Es-
theirs arm just after she fred and the
girl collapsed in his arms. She stayed
there until depot policemen hurried up
and placed her under arrest.
Both Esther Mitchell and Mrs. Cref-
field, who was arrested at 7 o'clock
last night while on her way back from
the cemetery where "Joshua" Crefield
is buried, acknowledged in statements
taken before Chief Wappenstein that
they had conspired to kill George. Had
it been necessary Esther Mitchell was
prepared to follow her brother to Port
land. 1t was this insane demand for
vengeance that prompted her to refuse
to accompany her father on his return
to Illinois.

killed an innocent man, and because he
had rrined my reputation by saying
that Crefield seduced me-" Esther
Mitchell declared, but both her state.

cate that the two had conspired to as
sassinate.
Mrs. Crefield prompted the shooting
and she bought the gun with which it
was done. 1t had been agreed between

should slay him.

JOHN BULL IN GLASS HOUSE.
Disgusting Conditions in Sausage and
Jam Factories.

London, July 1.-THE Britishers,
who have been so virtuous recently
over the Chicago meat packing revela-
tions, were today confronted with the
annual report of the inspector of fac
tories and workshops, which shows
that the conditions here are quite as
revolving as anything alleged of the
Western packing cente's.
Dirty factories and disgusting meth
DDS seem to be the rule, instead of the
exception. Jam factories, bakeries and
sausage makers are all censured as be-
ing equally filthy, and the description
of one fits most of the others. Here is
the report of typical jam factory:
"The boiling factory lay between the
yard and the stable, and the horses
reached the latter through the boiling
room. The sanitary accommodation
was hardly separated from the rooms
where the fresh fruit and uncovered
jam were kept, and the floors were dir
ty and undrained."
Another factory inspector found jam
pots being washed in "liquid like dark
soup. which smelled abominably."
The manager informed the inspector
that the water was changed "about
once a week" When fished out of
these evil-smelling tanks the pots were
allowed to stand until dry, when they
were considered ready to refill.
Inspectors of bakeries found that it
was frequent custom to bathe the
children in them after the close of work
on Saturdays, and the family's weekly
collection of dirty clothing was sorted
in the bakeries for dispatch to the
laundry.
The sausage factories, says the re-
port, are mostly owned by Germans,
are small, dilapidated and poorly lit,
and are infested with rats

Roosevelt Offsrs 1t for Government
Inspected Canned Meat.
Sheffield, England, July H. The
Grocers' federation, whose annual con-
ference is proceeding here, has received
a communication from Ambassador
Whitelaw Reid, enclosing message
from President Roosevelt, as follows:
"You are at liberty to inform the
Grocers' federation that under the new
law we can and will guarantee the fit
ness in all respects of timed meats
bearing the government stamp. If any
trouble arises Herewith, protest can at
once be made not merely to the sellers
of the goods, but to the United States
government ITSELF"
The secretary of the federation stated
that Mr.. RooseveIys message was in
reply to one sent by him on behalf of
the federation, saying trade was almost
paralyzed and that dealers must be as
timed goods. or otherwise they would
have to stop stocking up with Ameri-
can brands. The speaker hoped the
publication of the presidents message
would lead to revival of the trade.
He said the loss to the members of the
federation in the canned meat trade
had been very heavy.
Drastic resolutions were referred to
committees, one of which pledged the
grocers not to stock with American can
ned meats until the packers have initi-
ated an inspection system guaranteeing
the wholesomeness of their output.

nearly an hour and half in the jury

"Not guilty"
Despite the advance warning of the
court that no demonstration would be
permitted, irrespective of the verdict,
roar of applause greeted the an

powerless to still it.. The courtroom
was crowded, but aside from those who
sat in the front row, directly under the
eye of the presiding judge, the specta'-
ors applauded almost unanimously
when the clerk had read the words that
freed Crettield's slayer.
