Total Saving to China VIII
Be About S47, 100000.

Washington, D. C.-The State De-
partment confirms the statement that
it is the intention of the President
to release China from the payment of
all but the actual expenses to which
the United States was put by the
Boxer uprising of 1900, provided
Congress shall give its consent.
By the terms of the treaty China
was to pay to the United States a
sum slightly less than SIS, Doc 900 in
annual instalments running through
thirty-nine years, with interest. So
far there has been collected S6,O00,-
900, and out of this has been paid
all the claims of American mission
aries for property destroyed and lives
lost in the uprising, amounting to
about $4,000, 900. A careful esti-
mate has just been completed of the
expense to which the United States
Government was put by the military
operations in China, the naval ex-
penses and the losses suffered at
American Consulates. These aggre-
gate $9,0O0,00J, and at the rate the
payments have been made recently it
is expected the total will be met in
the course of four or five years more.
The total sum that China would
have been Obliged to pay to the
United States in the thirty-nine years
would be not less than s59,000,000.

CAR D|SSOLvES THE
SECOND RUSSIAN DUMA
Nine Former Members Are ar
rested and Seven Are in Hiding.
TROOPS GUARD ST. PETERSBURG

That ConstitutionaIism is Crushed is
the General Belief-New Parlia-
ment of Aristocrats-Case of
Gar is Weak.
st. Petersburg. - Dissolution of
the Russian Duma was accepted
by st. Petersburg without any DEM
onstration. In the presence of the
masses Of troops which had been
thrown into the capital the people
kept within their homes and re-
manned silent.
The dissolution was most awk-
wardly managed. The Dumas spe-
cial commission announced in dig
nifed language, worthy of a great
Legislature, that it would report
within two days to the House it's de-
cision in regard to the suspension of
the fifty-five Socialist Revolutionary
members, as demanded by the Gov
eminent. This delay was quite I'M
derstandable in such a vital case, for
the Duma would have lost every
shred of it's dignity If it had per-
mitted itself to be hustled into a
panicky decision.
These tactics forced the Govern
ment to put itself still further in the
wrong by the issuance of an impe-
rial manifesto, signed at Peterhof af-
ter midnight, ~dissolving the Dunaa
and promising a new election for
September IA, the Duma to meet No
vember IA.
At the same time occurred the ar
rest of several of the sixteen Depu-
ties whose immediate arrest had been
demanded in the ultimatum to the
Duma.
The official Rossia says that the
Duma was dissolved because it would
not Immediately surrender the fifty
five accused members, thus giving
some of them time to hide, and 9TH
ers further opportunity to preach.
The latter observation is strange,
as the Deputies could have preached
only to the circle of detectives that
constantly surrounded them. The
Rossia says that seven of the men
have been hidden, but the revolution
lists deny this.
M. Mahlakoff, the greatest lawyer
IN Russia, gives 1t as his deliberate
opinion that the case against the
ffty-ive accused delegates is weak.
The changes in the electoral law
promised in the Cars manifesto
mean the Acknowledgement of Sibe-
ria, Central Asia, and the Caucasus
and limitation of the franchise in
Russia on the lines foreshadowed in
the Novoe Vremya by the reaction
airy publicist, M. Menschikoff, who
wants an ~aristocratic Duma. Under
the changes announced Poland will
return fourteen Poles and two Rus
sian members to the next Duma. The
Caucasus will have nineteen men,
bers. In Siberia only two large cit
les and n territory have been dis
franchised, but the representation
has been generally fatally limited.
A significant feature of the stu
alton is that Premier Stolypin has
not done what he did at the last dis
solution, publish a highly liberal pro-
gram. This shows that constitution
alism is crushed.

bed Ceremony.

Louisville, Ky.-Six hours before
his death here Robert Horner, TWEEN
ty-nine years old, son of Samuel Hor-
ner, a multi-millionaire of Philadel-
phia, married Miss Elizabeth Dallam
Burnett, a member of one of the most
prominent and wealthiest families
in this city. The wedding of the
couple had been set for Tuesday, and
several guests already had arrived.
Horner died of blood poisoning
caused by a c~arbuncle.
The young man came here three
years ago as manager of a cement
company owned by his father. He
fell in love with Miss Burnett at first
sight, and their engagement was an
nounced last winter. The wedding
was to have been n of the most
fashionable of the early summer.
Horner was preparing for the union,
and had arranged for a wedding trip
of two months. A week ago the
carbuncle developed in his neck and
he grew steadily worse until his
death.
At first Horner made light of the
carbuncle, but on Thursday evening
his condition had become so serious
that he decided to go to the Norton
Memorial Infirmary. There the ply
sicians said an operation should have
been performed at least twenty-four
hours before. They placed him at
once on the operating table, but the
knife gave no relief. Instead, the
patient was attacked by blood pois-
oning, and early in the morning it
became apparent he could not re-
cover.
Horner read his fate in the face
of his fiancee, and he bore it like a
Spartan. The doctors tried to hide
the truth from him, but he silenced
them by his questions. Then he
asked that Miss Burnett become his
bride, and the girl consented. The
young mans father, expecting to at
tend the arranged wedding on Tues
day, arrived from Philadelphia bare
ly in time to be present at the hur-
ried ceremony. He was accompanied
by his second son, Charles, who was
pledged by the dying nan to care
for the widowed bride.
S44OhJ wa PSA liSo "
the Rev. j. G. Minnegerode. Horner
was so weak that the physicians re-
fused to prop him up with pillows.
He gathered strength, however, to
make his responses in a full, clear
voice. Miss Burnett was so overcome
her voice hardly could be heard. Sew
eral nurses were affected so deeply
that they left the room. Charles
Horner broke down and cried, but
the father stood without the move
ment of a muscle looking straight
into the face of his stricken son.
After the wedding Mrs. Horner bent
w and kissed her husband, then
she took a chair at the bedside and
held his hand on the counterpart
until death came.
Only ten days ago Horner took out
a life insurance policy for $25, 900
for Miss Burnett. 1t is believed that
all his estate, amounting to several
hundred thousand dollars, will go
to the widow.
