DONNA BECOMES EXCITED
Demand Is Made for Exclusion Of
Three Socialist Members.
Lower House Of Russian Parliament
Thrown Into Great Excitement and
Some plain Statements Made.

| st. Petersburg, April 13.--A demant
for the exclusion from parliament o.
three socialist deputies pending theil
trial for political offenses, submitted
to the lower house Of parliament by
the minister Of justice, M. Chtcheglo
vitoff, caused great excitement at Fri
days session. The prosecutions Of
the deputies were instituted In the
provincial courts for acts committed
before the convocatlon Of parliament.
M. Alexinsky, social democrat Of
st. Petersburg, in an excited speech
pointed out that a recognition Of the
minister's right to demand the depu-
ties exclusion might lead to the ex-
clusion Of third Of the membership
Of the house.
The minister of justice defended his
demand. He said the law clearly pro-
vided for the temporary suspension of
deputies indicted for criminal acts.
The house, he insisted had no discre-
tion in the matter and he further as
serted that the Russian courts were
above suspicion, statement which
was greeted with ironical laughter.
M. Amezoff, constitutional demo-
crat, referred to the fact that In the
indictment of M. Kuznetseff he was
classed as revolutionist, phrase of
speech appealing to the overthrow OF
the autocracy. Then turning dramati-
cally to the minister of justice, NJ
Azemoff asked whether Russia was
still an autocracy, for IF SO the mani
'esto of October 30 was a lie and If |
not then the defenders of the autocra.
cy were the real revolutionists."
Mr.. Alexinsky proposed that troops
be brought in to arrest the deputies
md thereby complete the humiliation

The constitutional democratic reso-
ution to refer the demand of the min
ster Of justice to a committee which

government was carried by a vote OF
81 to 175.

Washington, April 49, -That all the
central America I republics are look
ing to the present state of warfare
between Nicaragua and Honduras to
result In an agreement for permanent
peace in Central America vas de-
veloped Friday by general discus
sion at the state department. With
that end in view the negotiations
looking to a cessation of hostilities
will not go SO far as to take up the
subject of permanent peace, but will
leave this broad question to a con.
ference to be held in Washington or
the City of Mexico and in which all
of the countries Immediately inter
ested may take part.
The United States and Mexico, &C
cording to the embryonic plans will
occupy the important positions Of
umpire.
The conflict between two of the
Central American republics which is
now drawing to close has made 1t
apparent to all that the present I'M
settled conditions there are hamper
ing the development of the countries. |
The various republics not involved in |
the war kept free with the greatest
difficulty, and commercial affairs in |
all Of them were affected. With the
United States and Mexico urging the
placing of the republics on a firm
basis so that they might
dwell amicably together and
enjoy an interchange of bust
ness, and with the lessons taught
BY the present war, there is every In
LEGATION that permanent agreement
nay be reached. ~ F

shack, woman and all to the non-sup-
porting refugees camp at Ingleside,
where the relief captains would be free
to work their wills. Accordingly a
squad Of policemen loaded her camp
upon a truck and started on the six
mile journey across the city to Ingle-
side. Throughout the journey Mrs.
Kelly stood in the door of the shack,
stars and stripes in hand, in perfect
frenzy of anger, denouncing the relief
corporation, its agents and all its
works. Women cried and men cursed;
all in all, it was scene to be remem-
bered.
All along the line OF march there
were fights and incipient riots. Sew
eral times the driver was all but pulled
from his seat. Captain j. n. Kilian,
camp commander ut Ingleside, had not
been notified of the descent that was
being made upon him. When the mob
escorted truck reached the outer gates
Gf the camp. Kilian, upon learning who
was thus being thrust upon him, denied
Mrs. Kelly admittance, on the ground
that she would spread dissatisfaction
and discomfort among a people who
had become resigned to their unhappy
lot.
For two days, while the several fac
tions of the relief corporation were
disputing as to what disposition should
be made of the unhappy old woman,
the shack-laden truck remained in the
county road, outside the gates of In.
gleside. The building was, of course,
without fire. The six-mile journey
through the streets had racked 1t bad
ly; the windows and the door could not
be closed. The rain entered ut hun
dred places. But the determined old
woman did not desert her home.
After two days stay in the roadway
the shack was finally dragged inside
the camp. Mrs. Kelly was warned that
it was to be pulled down. Still she
refused to leave. A force of workmen
thereupon set upon 1t, until nothing
was left but three boards of the floor
upol which stood the resolute old wom-
an, waving her flag while denouncing
those whom she termed her prosecutors.

The favorable conditions which have
characterized commerce so striklnsly
throughout the year have suffered no
decline, and it is fitting elimination
to the unprecedented activities that the
volume Of Christmas dealings has sur
passed the high record made a year
ago. Notwithstanding the enormous
buying Of holiday goods, the general
demand is we'll sustained In seasonable
lines, especially hgh-grade apparel,
footwear and household needs.
The buying power of the people never
before has been SO strongly demonstrate
ed and liberal purchases have carried
sales of the luXuries to remarkable
extent, jewelry, art and music stores
sharing largely in the general prosper
ity Stocks in the leading retail Sec
lions throughout the city have under
gone satisfactory depletion on a fairly
profitable margin, although the selling
expense forms an enhanced item. A
feature Of the dealings has been the
greatly increased number of visitors
from many outside points who bought
literally, and it Is clear that this mar
ket has become a more attractive CEN
ter than hitherto for discriminating
buyers.
Bank exchanges year ago were con-
siderably swollen by the closing of
three local concerns, and, allowing for
this, there Is sustained gain in the cur
rent total. Conditions in the leading
industries reflect no material change.
The customary falling off appears in
the aggregate Of new demands, but the
pressure is undiminished upon prOduc-
ton, and few plants can be shut down
for more time than Is necessary to
make imperative repairs. Raw mate
rails are yet rapidly absorbed and
prices maintain their high position for
pig iron, finished steel, lumber, hides
and leather. The markets for bread
stuffs, provisions and live stock show
seasonable activity, and, with few ex-
ceptions, values range higher.

RenI Name of "Guillotipe.,

The nickname "guillotine" might
have been "louisette"-and would have
been If DR.. Guillotin's own wishes had
been consulted. He neither died by
the guillotine nor invented it, In spite
OF the popular legend on both points.
What he did was to carry in the con-
stituent assembly of 1889 his proposal
that decapitation should be the form
of capital punishment for all classes,
and no longer the privilege Of the arts
tocracy, and TO propose, on the ground
OF humanity, that a machine should be
substituted for the tx or sword.
Unfortunately his remark, with my
machine l have your head off in the
twinkling Of an eye, and without your
feeling the least PAIN" extinguished his
motion in laughter. But afterwards
DR.. Louis, secretary of the Academy Of
Surgeons, to whom the question was
referred, recommended such machine,
rough forms of which had been used in
Scotland, England, and other coun-
tries. So at first the national razor"
was called a "louisette."
But Guillotin's remark was remem-
bered, with "guillotine" as the result
to his deep horror and disgust.-Lon-
don Chronicle.
