st. Petersburg, Sept. 10.-Premier
Stolypin's project for local self gov
eminent has been badly received BY
the reactionists at the zemstvO CON
gress in Moscow. The project pro
poses to replace the communes by
small zemstVos, in which persons OF
all ranks-peasants priests and land
lords-shall cooperate on equal terms,
each of these zemstvOs exercising po-
lice functions. The liberals expressed
satisfaction with the project as
whole, but introduced amendments
providing that women shall be emit
tied to membership in the zemstvo
with the right to vote, and opposed the
proposition to give the 2emstvo police
functions, on the ground that they
would be freed from administrative
control if they had nothing to do with
police work.
The conservatives, led by Prince
Neutrality-suspicious. member OF
the council of the empire, vigorously
opposed the premier's project, haunting

SAYS NEW RATES
WILL Ruin ROADS

st. Paul, Mimi, Sept: 1O.-President
A. B. Stickney of the Chicago Great
Western railroad, in an affidavit filed
in the federal court yesterday, says
that if the commodity and two-cent
passenger rates now in controversy in
Minnesota, become effective the road
will be financially ruined. 1t is esti-
mated that the road will suffer a re
duction Of % per cent on fine grains,
20 per cent on corn, over AZ per cent
on hard coal and nearly 26 per cent
on soft coal
The Great Western, said the afida-
Wit, had accepted the merchandise
schedule promulgated by the railway
commission in 1906 though by so do
ing it sustained a loss in revenue of
% per cent. 1t was hoped to make up
this loss in increased traffic but this
hope was not fully realized.

POLITICS HOT

Saratoga. N Y, Sept. 10-On the
eve of the 41st annual encampment of
the Grand Army of the Republic,
Saratoga is crowded with veterans.
Thousands arrived yesterday by spe-
cial trains with the result that more
visitors are in Saratoga than on any
other date in it's recent history.
Mingled with the prediction Cos
sip, there has been a rumor among
the early arrivals that an attempt
would be made at the encampment to
indorse President Roosevelt for a
third term. Commander Brown de-
clared that the rumor is utterly
groundless. THE Grand Army of the
Republic is not a political organiza-

entirely be beyond its jurisdiction"

Baron Ishii also is reported to have
cabled a report of the riot to Ambas-
sador Komuna in London with a re-
quest that he take the matter UP with
the British government.

Four Attacks Made.
Four attacks we're made upon the
oriental quarters Saturday night and
much damage was done. The Chi
! nese merchants and others promptly
fed, but the japanese opposed the
mob and fought valiantly to protect
their property. Anti-oriental orators
on the street corners aroused the
people and hundreds joined the riot
ers. A dozen japanese who had just
arrived, were attacked on the Cana
dian Pacific railway wharves and
thrown into the water, but all were
rescued. During the disturbance a
number. of Japanese were seriously
| injured and several white men were
stabbed.
The police and the authorities are
doing everything in their power to
| prevent any further outbreak, but the
situation is considered critical and q
| further outbreak may occur at any
moment
Must Protect Japanese.
London, Sept. 1O.-The action of

Militia May Be Necessary to Preserve

Orientals Arm Themselves and Will Fight
For Lives and Property
Government Will Insist That Ample
Justice Be Done

Vancouver, B. c., Sept. 1O.-There
is renewed apprehension of further
anti-Asiatic rioting here and Japan
csc and Chinese crowded the local
gun shops to buy firearms and anu
milton. They declare they will de-
fend their lives and property. In case
the oriental quarter is again attacked,
It is feared that there will be blood
shed, for the Japanese and Chinese
are thoroughly aroused and are con-
vinced that the police are pOwerless
20 protect them. Shortly before noon
the police notified the gun stores to
cease selling firearms to anyone until
such time as all possibility of further
outbreaks had passed. Before the Or
der issued, several hundreds of chi
nese and japanese had armed them
selves. All Chinese and Japanese de-
clare they are preparing to assist in
opposing any further attacks that
may be made.
May Call Out Militia.
Two hundred special policemen
were sworn in and there is talk Of
calling out the militia. There is lit
tie doubt that this will be done in
case the rioting is continued Feel
ing all over the city runs high AMI
an anti-orientaI attack is likely to oc-
cur at any time.
So far, there have been no fataIt-
ties although several of those injured
in Saturday nights riots are in a
serious condition. TWenty-six rioters
were arraigned in the police court
yesterday and were held for further
examination.
