arrived in port last night, passed

The Company's Methods

A FEDERAL JUDGE
Scores the Management Of the Uncle
Sam Oil CO.-It Will be Placed
in the Hands of aReCeiver.

Topeka, Kan, April 20-In an
nouncing his decision to appoint a re-
ceiver in involuntary bankruptcy for
the Uncle Sam Oil Co., Judge John G.
Pollock in the United States district
court on Friday took occasion to de-
nounce the scheme of the company as
outlined in its advertising as "im-
practicable"
"T'he estate, which Is probabys small
enough as 1t Is, will be conserved for
the stockholders and the receiver Is
appointed in their interests" Judge
Pollock said. THE creditors are busi-
ness men and should have gone into
the scheme with their eyes open. Any
business man should have known that
fuckers scheme as outlined in his ad.
vertising was impracticabe. What.
ever is left shall be kept together for
the stockholders, many of whom are
poor and unable to afford to lose the
money they have invested"
Judge Pollock did not name the re-
ceiver last night, as had been ex-
pected, but win probably do so to-day.
The receiver will be appointed un-
der the bankruptcy law, the applica.
tion being based on the fact that H.
II. Tucker, jr,, and the other officers
OF the company had made a general
assignment Of all the property of the
company to three trustees who were
to manage and operate It.

To Describe the Horrors
Of Famine in Russia.
MILLIONS STARvE.
Countless thousands are Absolutely
Destitute Coming HarvestWill
Afford SCant Relief.

London, April 20.--Writing from the
Russian famine district, DR.. Kennard
who was sent by the Society oi
Friends to investigate conditions
among the peasantry, draws an appal
ling picture of the suffering. After
calling attention to the urgent and i'm.
mediate need Of funds he says:
This is the worst famine Russia
has known. No less than 10000, 900
people distributed throughout the
southeastern provinces cannot live
without aid to see another harvest,
and may say that this figure has not
only been approved by the zemstvo or
ganization, but also by the govern
ment itself. The date of the harvest
will vary with the latitude, and the
famine.stricken region is spread over
such a wide area five times the size
of France) thas more than ten de-
grees of latitude are involved
Funds will be needed to the end of
July to feed all these millions, and
then the harvest will not bring relief,
for they have neither land nor cattle
The few cows that ars II existence
are in such a pitiful condition that
they are useless for milking purposes
The result is that babies and young
children are being forced to eat the
coarse black bread and the indigesti-
BILE young cucumbers, which are luxu-
ries to the adult Russian peasant to-
day, but are death to the baby, or at
any rate spell disease.
THESE people have sold their all,
and in most cases have likewise sold
in advance all that the harvest might
bring them. They have sold them
selves and their work, and from all
over the southeastern provinces are
coming reports of young women
forced to prostitute themselves to OBJ
tain food. For these suffering people.
to whom the coming harvest means
nothing, relief must be afforded DUR
ing the whole Of the coming year.
Meanwhile epidemics of disease
add to the terrible conditions obtain
ing. The difficulties encountered in
relieving these people are made ten
times worse owing to the practically
impossible condition of the roads;
the winter SHOWS are melting and pro-
jecting vast volumes of water In
countless cataracts toward the Volga,
and neither man nor beast can hope
to do anything In the way Of travel"
DR.. Kennard makes an urgent ap-
peal for timed milk and for timed.
meats and meat juices. He says: 81
have seen the zemstvo workers and
their methods, and can
youch for 1t that not only is the work
being carried out in business like
and capable manner, but that the
most Is made out of every farthing."

Cold Weather Continues to Retard

Cold Weather Continues 10 Hetaro
Trade In Many Branches.
New York, April 20.--R. G. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says:
Spring trade developed slowly be-
cause of unreasonable weather, but
the lost ground will be recovered In
large measure when normal tempera'
ture prevails. Cold weather has pre-
vailed over an unusually large area,
retarding agricultural progress as
we'll as trade in light weight wearing
apparel and other spring goods, but
similar bad starts in other years have
sometimes brought most favorable re-
suits.
The only actual damage of any ac-
count is reported In some winter
wheat fields of the southwest, where
insects and drouth combined to injure
grain, and on most Of this area some
other crop has been planted. Whole
sale business for later seasons is on a
liberal scale, building operations are
active and leading manufacturing
plants are busy. Few labor struggles
retard work in the building industry
and an unusually small number OF
strikes are scheduled for May.
