Notice to Claim Owners.

Pueblo, Colo.-The clerks in the To-
cal land office, acting under orders
from Washington, are sending out no
tices to persons claiming homesteads
and mining claims. and who have not
completed their proofs and paid the
remainder of their fees. 1t is stated
that there are several thousand oil
these in southern Colorado, major
portion of whom are in the Pueblo dis
trict, homesteaders and persons pat
enting mining claims having taken
only the preliminary steps and paid
the first fees required in many cases.
1t is the desire of the land office
to make room by clearing up these un'
finished cases and it is understood that
in most of these cases, at least, failure
to obey the order will forfeit their Il.
tie. Business in the Pueblo office will
be greatly increased after February
2Sth, when the Lamar office will be
consolidated with 1t.

REVOLUTION IN ECUADOR.
Government Changes Twice in Space
of One Day.

Guayaquil, Ecuador.-General Alfaro
occupied Quito, the capital, at 3 pm,
Thursday.
A Junta of notable persons met in
the government palace here at 4 pm.
Friday and formed new government.
Vice President Moreno assumed the
executive power, establishing the capi-
tai here and appointing new ministry.
Rioting followed The people during
the afternoon attacked the prisons, lib
Grated the political prisoners and af-
terward captured the police barracks,
where the rioters obtained possession
of number of rifles and some cannon.
Rife shots later were heard in all parts
of the city, and the rioters became so
bold that they attacked a battalion OF
artillery.
Two hundred persons were killed or
wounded on both sides during the fight
ing.
The new ministry only lasted one
hour. The people rejected the election
of Moreno and proclaimed as president
General Alfaro, the former president OF
Ecuador and leader of the revolution,
and in his absence DR.. Emilio Arvalo
assumed the civil and military author
ity.
A great panic prevailed here during
the evening, and in the midst of the
disorder General Leonidas Plaza, min
lister of Ecuador to the United States,
who arrived here January 18th and as
sumed chief command of the army in
its operations against the rebels, es'
capped from the city and embarked on
the Chilean steamer Loa, which leaves
tomorrow for Panama.

APPEAL TO GARFIELD.
Independent Oil Refiners of Kansas
Ask for Justice.

Chanute, Kas.-The Independent oil
'efiners of Kansas have mailed to
James A. Garfield, commissioner of cor
porations of the Department of Com
merce and Labor, an appeal for justice
against the alleged conspiracy be-
tween the Standard Oil Company and
the railroad to shut Kansas oil out of
the market.
The refiners who signed the appeal
are Clifford Thorne, A. F. Robertson,
F. S. Bennett, C. w. Wasster, ]. Nc
Cameron, II. Kaesmann, d. o. MCGEE
and c. e. Martin. These men own
eight refineries now in operation, be-
sides two in course of erection at
Atchison and Kansas City, Kansas.
They have invested more than ST.
100000 III refineries, tank cars, storage
tanks. wagons and barrels.
They claim that by reason of a CON
spiracy between the Standard Oil Com
pany and the railroad systems of .the
Southwest, particularly those rail-
roads operating in Kansas. Missouri.
Nebraska, Arkansas, Iowa and the ter
ritories of Oklahoma and Indian Terri
tory, they are limited to the state of
Kansas for a market for their refined
oil; that to all points outside of Kan
sas the freight rates on all the prod
ucts of crude petroleum are unreason-
ably high and have been maintained at
such unreasonably high rate for the ex-
press purpose and for no other purpose
than to confine business of the inde-
pendent refiners to the state of Kan
sas.

Special Gable Despatch to THE sun.
/ ST, Petersburg, March 8I.--The useless
ness Of expecting that the meeting OF Rus
sia's first Parliament on May 10 will in any
way abate the internal struggle is now &C
cepted by every one. The fire OF revolution
is burning everywhere continuously, but 1t
has not by a long way burned out or smoked
out the Government. Far distant, too, is
the day when the army will make common
cause with the revolutionaries.
The present slaughter Of minor Govern
ment employees in obedience to the orders
Of Count Witte mt Minister Of the Interior
Durnovo is a salient feature. Thirteen
postal ~telegraphers at Tchita who shared
in the general strike in October nave Just
been sentenced to death. The revolu-
tionaries treat this and similar cases merely
as a skirmish lost in war.
Against the existing system the revolu-
tionary programme is still the paralysis Of
the administrative machinery from within.
Street fighting and other disorders are not
part Of their scheme. The leaders are not
likely to call a general strike at present
because the installation OF the Duma as
part Of the fabric of government offers
some hope Of wrecking the whole system.
Dmitri Shipoff, the leader Of the moderate
conservatives. makes the following esti-
mate of what the Duna will amount to
when it meets. THE majority will be
peasants, who will arrive quite unprepared
for the mode Of procedure. Many will not
even understand the words used, which
will be Of the official kind and wholly strange
to them. The peasants will maintain that
the agrarian question is their paramount
interest and will refuse to trust its solution
TO any one outside Of their own class. But
it is just the agrarian question which is
bound to meet from the beginning insur-
mountable difficulties which will serve the
revolutionary propaganda"
Shipof holds strongly that the double
INC triple system of election makes the
people regard the whole procedure as in
te~ntionally complicated and obstructi We
He emphatically denies that the new Council
of State will serve in any sense thep purpose
Of upper chambers and senates elsewhere.
He maintains that it will be almost the
same bureaucratic wall which exi SITS now
as an enemy of public life. He is certain
from long experience Che was chairman of
the Moscow provincial zemstvo for many
years. that the Council OF the Empire and
the Duma are f~oredoomed to a disagree
able struggle, inasnuch as no decision Of
the Duma can be brought direct to the
Elnperor's notice. The Council, in its new
form. not only diminishes the authority
OF the Duma but conourrently reduces the
~prerogative of the Emperor.
The majority Of those who have analysed
the constitution Of the chambers agree with
Shipoff that they have been SO drafted under
Count Whites guidance as to strengthen
the bureaucracy at the expense Of both the
Car and the people.

ANOTHER BLACK HAND LETTER.
Threat TO kin Man, Wife and Child II Money
Is Not Received.

ORANGE, n. j., March sl.-Arl day to-day
Alfonzo Cassano and his wife, Celeste, have
stayed in their rooms in the apartment
house at $3.50 South Jefferson street, Orange,
guarding their only child, Louisa. Just five
years old. No injury has befallep them,
although according to a letter which they
found under the door q few days ago both
we're to be killed and Louisa was also to
meet death unless a sum of money was
placed under a tree yesterday.
Written in pencil IN the Italian language
the letter was directed to Mrs. Cassano, who
was referred TO by her Christian name,
Celeste. The letter was dated in Newark
and the Interpreter says that It was written
by an uneducated person who m~isspelled
many of the words.
The letter said that fourteen men with
masks who were ~unfriendly to Csssano
would take part in the plot. There were
rude drawings. oaricaturing the wife's
face and marked After death" Neighbors
say that two strange men, one with a beard
and the other with a mustache, left the
letter while the family were away.

La Touraine and the st. Laurent, which
sailed on March "a, carried 1,762 pa ssengers.
Four hundred had to be left behind on the

many Of the emigrants became violent and
fought for berths.
