AGAINST ASPHALT TRUST.
Interesting Complaint Filed With the
 Interstate Commerce Commission.

Washington, April 22.-An interest," Ing complaint, directed against the so- called asphalt trust, was filed to-day With the interstate commerce commis- sion. The title of the case is the Amer ican Asphalt association against the Utah Railway company. The complain ant is corporation under the laws of Missouri, and is engaged in the mining and shipment of gilsonite from Utah. and in the conversion of gilsonite into a commercial product, asphaltum The defendant operates railroad line be- tween the towns of Dragon, Utah, and Mack, Cola distance of fifty-four
 miles. The Gilson Asphaltum Co.,, con-
 trolled by the Barber Asphalt Co., ac- cording to the petition, operates gilson- | lte mines in competition with the com- plainant near Dragon It is alleged that the railroad company, the Gilson company and the Barber Asphalt Paw ing company are all corporations sub sidiary to the General Asphalt com pany, commonly known as the asphalt
 trust, and are controlled and managed I by the trust
 The complainant says it is charged l fifty cents per hundred pounds by the
 railroad company for the transportation
 of gilsonite from Dragon to Mack or
 at the rate of $15O per car; although
 the railroad company transports live l stock between the same points at the
 rate of $25 a ear, and commodities gen.
 erally at like low rates It is claimed | that the tariffs filed with the interstate commerce commission by the railroad
 company are not observed, and that the
 complainant is subjected to excessive charges, discrimination and injustice. 1 The complainant Is completed to pay | twenty five cents each for the loading
 of cars, and seventy five cents per
 team for hauling its product over a l highway controlled by the defendant, 1 thus necessarily increasing the prices | of it's products about twenty cents per
 ton. The complainant does not know what the railroad charges the Gilson company, but says 1t would make no difference whatthe charge might be, as
 being controlled by the asphalt trust,
 it simply would be taking money out
 of one pocket and putting it in anoth-
 CT, It is alleged, also, that the rail- road furnished free transportation to
 the officials of the complainant's com petitor companies.
 he commission is requested to ad- | just the charges made for the carryng
 of freght on just and reasonable 1 bass to gve the complainant repara- tory damages in the sum of $1l,00O and
 to ssue orders to prevent a contnu-
 ance of the discrimination against the | complainant.

 The capital stock and funded debt of the road is $14S,668 a mile and the committee figures it's value at $28,OOO a mile.
 In it's latest report the Chicago Great Western company certified that line and equipment cost $9S,011 mile, and in detail of its statement there is an item purchase of constructed road $66, 994.63 mile." This would mean S5O,- 100000 for the whole line.
 In 1891 there was reported for "pur- chase of constructed road $6,S13, 191.52. j." It was then S15 miles long,
 Fifteen years later," says the com mittee, "the elastic item had been stretched to $5O,594,S44.2S, but the whole line had shrunk sixty miles in length, It had beeen Watered too much"

GEN. NEPULEFF TO COMMAND AT
 KOVNO.

Sevastopol, April 22-The petitions for the transfer of Gen. Nepuleff, com- mander of the fortress here, to some other command, have resulted in his appointment to command Kovno fort ress but the Revolutionary Committee declares that the general will never leave Sevastopol alive.
 Gen. Nepuleff subdued the mutiny at Sevastopol of November, 905, and sank the mutinous cruiser Otchakoff. He was wounded by. the explosion of a bomb during review of troops at Se- wastopol May 27, 1906. In June of the same year he suppressed another mu- tiny. The general was wounded by the exjlosion of bomb March last, while on his way to attend dinner given in his honor by Admiral Skrydloff, com 'fiinander of the Black Sea fleet. The transfer of the general was due to petitions of the inhabitants of Sevasto- pol, who begged Premier Stolpin and War Minister Rudiger to send him to another command, "as the nerves of the people of Seyastopol were becom- ing shattered through the danger which they incurred whenever the com mandant appeared in public"

NEW TROUBLE IN RUSSIA
INDUSTRY MENACED BY STRIKE
 IN OIL REGION

Sailors of the Naphtha Flotiila in the
 Capslan Are Out, and the Factories
 of Central Russia Are Likely to Run
 of Employees May Be Thrown Out of
 Werk.
 St. Petersburg, April 22.-Russian in- dustry is being placed in critical sit- uation owing to the continuance of the strike of sailors belonging to the naph- tha fiotilia on the Caspian Sea. The efforts of Baron Taube, chief of the corps of gendarmes, who has been de- tailed to deal independently with the strike, have not been successful Only ten of several hundred tank steam ves- sells are in operation, and both sides are determined to continue the strike. The oil residue, known as mazout, is the principal fuel used by the factories in central Russia, the stocks of which, ordinarily replenished during the spring floods, when the Volga branches are navigable for big steamers into the re- mote interior of Russia, are now ex- hausted. Navigation will open in a few days. but, owing to the strike, the reservoirs below Astrakhan, which supply the river steamers, are empty and the shippers are unable to take advantage of the short period of high water. A panic has beeen precipitated on the Kazan bourse by the announce ment made by the representatives of the oil companies that no mazout is available even for steamer fuel.
 Leading industrial capitalists have telegraphed to the lower house of par nament asking that body to intervene
 The president of the Moscow bourse in an interview to-day, exepressed the opinion that a continuance of the strike would force most of the factories to suspend, which would throw hun dreds of thousands of men out of work

The Question of Terrorism.

St. Petersburg, April 22.-The discus sion in the lower house of parliament of motion disappearing of terrorism, which was expected to result in d stormy debate. has been postponed in
 the belief that the personal interview between M. Golovin, president of the house, and Emperor Nicholas, which takes place tomorrow, will throw
 some light on his majesty's mental at- titude toward the duma The constitu- tional democrats are in a pessimistic
 mood and consider that the discussion
 of this motion on terrorism will be a
 most crucial ordeal for the house.
 They were practically thrown into a
 panic Saturday by a report of the i'm : pending dissolution of the duma, and
 were of the opinion that the nomina-
 tion of M Piehno, q noted reactfonary,
 to the council of the empire called for steps of immediate expediency.
 The constitutional democrats, since the inception of their party, have stead fly refused to commit themselves for
 or against terrorism, and they would 8ladly shelve the entire question If this were possible Up to the present time the center party has been unable to
 draft formula for a motion on terror
 ism on which the majority could be | united.
