NEW ATTITUDE ADOPTED.
Hartman Makes Big Loan to Chicago
 and Alton. ~.


 Chicago, June 26.--A dispatch to The Tribune from Washington, D. C., says: Edward H Hartman has adopted a new attitude toward the Chicago and Alton Railroad, different from the predatory policy which members of the Interstate Commerce Commission alleged he observed toward that prop erty.
 Authoritative information has reach ed here to the effect that In order to prevent the passing of dividend re- gently on Chicago and Alton, Hartman made loan of $1,000, 900 to that line. to be used for improvements.
 At thd last meeting of the parties to the agreement in New York it was an- nounced by representatives of the Rock Island that the surplus for the year aggregated $1,400,000 but as the road needed improvements 1t would waive the dividend and use the money for additional equipment repairs. etc. Hartman instantly objected, insisting that the dividend should be issued. To practical financiers who listened to him it was evident it was against the i'm terests of the President of the Union Pacific to permit the passing of the dividend. because of the criticism that would follow
 However, the representatives of the Rock Island were controlled and Harri- man, after thinking a few moments, proposed to make a personal loan of S1.000 900 at , per cent to be repaid in 1915, if tho board would declare divi- dends. The proposition was accepted.

TEN BOMBS THROWN
Many Persons Were Killed and Badly
 In1ured.

Tihis. Russia, June 26.--Ten bombs were thrown today into Erivan Square in the center of the town. which was thronged with people. The missiles ex- ploded with terrific force. Many per- sons were killed or injured and win dows and doors were shattered over a large area.
 The police are preventing all ap- proach to the scene of the outrage.
 It now appears that the outrage was connected with an attack on the treas ury. A wagon containing $125,OO0 and escorted by Cossacks had reached Erivan Square when bomb was thrown and an explosion followed. Two employees of the Imperial Bank we're killed The number of other victims have not yet been ascertained. The bags containing the money disappeared and no trace of them has been found.
 The first report to the effect that ten bombs were thrown appears to have been incorrect. So far as known only one bomb was exploded

 Congressman w B. Craig has re- cefved a letter from the supervision architect of the Treasury Department at Washington. which conveys the in- formation that in all probability dur ing the month of July bi1s may. be asked for the construction of the Fed eral building in this city. After these bids have been opened and accepted, 1t is believed that the work upon the building will be started within a short while, and that by January. 1909, at least it will have been completed.
 The reason that bids for the con struction of the Selma building have not been asked for sooner is on ac- count of the cSngested condition C of f architect. In that office of late there has been placed a number of negro draughtmen This has caused great many of the white employees of the office to quit and the work has been thrown many weeks behind.
 The money necessary for the Gov ernnient building has been appropriat- ed by Congress, and when the work has. enee started. there Wsll be no draw backs. .-
