RUSSIAN HOUSES UNITE.
ASSASSIN of Cbuknin COnfesses-Dis-
orders IN the South.

St Petersburg July 15-The Council of the
EMPIRES acceptance without amendment on
Saturday of parliaments bill approprating
81 F0OO0O for famine relief came as a surprise,
hut has occa stoned the greatest jubilation in the
camp of the lower house. as it is regarded as a
vote of lack of confidence i'll the Goremykin
Ministry on the part of the upper chamber.
While many in the Council of the Empire really
favored the adoption OF the Cabinets recon-
mendations they recognized that it would be d
fatal mistake for the Council to antagonize the
lower house in the present crisis. Moreover.
those on the inside who were aware that the
negotia tons between the government and the
Constitutional Democrats were entering the final
stage naturally were influenced by the coming
changes.
According to to-night's reports, all the ques-
tions of principle involved in a change of the
Ministry have been resolved. and now it is
merely a matter Of personalities. The Emperor
is still objecting TO certain names proposed by
the Constitutional Democrats.
Admiral Skrydloff probably will succeed the
late Vice-Admiral Chuknin. commander of the
Black Sea fleet.
The agrarian commission of the lower house.
in Difference to the firm protest of the Group
Of Toll. has rejected the proposal Of NJ. Kut-
liarevski. of Saratoff TO embody in the agrarian
bi1 provision exempting from appropriation
land and stock companies and lands, like Vine
wards. fruit orchards. etc under special cult-
walton.
A dispatch from sebastopol to-day says that
a former sailor named Shetenko was arrested
and confessed that he was the murderer of Vice
Admiral Chukrin.
The sailors at Cronstadt to-day declined 10
attend a requiem for Vice-Admiral Chuknin.
The strike in the naphtha industry is spread
ing. The employers have rejected most of the
demands of the workmen. The manager of tho
works at Bibiebat was murdered to-day.
The representative of sugar factory at Nico-
!aieff. while going to a bank on Saturday, was
waylaid and robbed Of $l5.0oo. one Of the rob-
hers was captured and the soldiers shot another
The remainder Of the band escaped.
The report that Russia contemplates a new
loan abroad is semi-oficialiy denied. The de-
NAL adds that Russia viii apply only to the
home market for funds for the relief of the dis
trsssed uCDulation.

fire He walked out onto one Of the piers and
was standing ths-. wi.olt a yvcrkf man called his
attention to smoke. coming from the building.
An alarm was turned in for the city fremen
and Deputy Chief Guerin called all the COM
panies available. The freboat New Yorker and
a Baltimore 6 Ohio tug ran into one of the
docks and laid lines to the fire. The water and
heat caused the bales of cotton to burst and
within a short time they burst open the roof
and then the flames shot forth. driving the
fremen back 1t took two hours to bring the
fire under control. and the cotton is still smoul-
dering
The loss OF $4,000 will fall on the company. as
the underwriters some time ago cancelled all
policies on cotton owing to the numerous fires
in the harbtr within the last two months

There is no doubt the session of the
extra grand jury which Will be called
to make this investigation will be pro-

Whiting refinery, much of the alleged

least this is the district where traffic
originated upon which either rebates
were made or there were rate discrim-
nations
