LOSING In ELECTIONS
CZAR OPPOSITION ALMOST GER.
TAIN TO WIN IN RUSSIA.
Indications Are that Extreme Radicals
VIII BE i'm Control OF New Pariia-
ment and that Dissolution VIII Not
BE Long Delayed.

Elections were held Saturday In
nine large cities (Moscow, Odessa, IT,
fiis, Kazan, wilma, Yekaterincsalv, As

the twenty four which send members
direct ID parliament. Moscow having
four members and the other cities one
each. In accordance with Russian
ideas the counting of the votes was
postponed until Monday. and definite
results of the elections are unknown.
but the indications everywhere are a
victory for the opposition. In several
cities, notably MOSCOW, the question
is whether the election has been car
ried by the constitutional democrats or
the socialists.
COW are favored by the results OF the
workmen's elections, I'm which nine
teen social democrats were chosen.

and workmen were also held Sunday

not counting four in Rostov-on-Don
city, semi-Patinisk, Turgini and AS
trakhan.
In spite OF the evident opposition
character of parliament Premier Stol-
ypin is quoted as saying that he hopes
to nurse 1t along until summer before
a dissolution is necessary, but the gen.
eral opinion is that the constitutional
democrats will be unable to hold their
radical colleagues In check and that
the new parliament's life will not ex-
ceed two months.
The expectation that the dissolution
of parliament would be followed by
a change in election laws is denied by
Premier Stolypin. who says he believes
this would be unconstitutional.

DEAD MAN AT THROTTLE.
Train Runs Through Philadelphia n.
High Speed.

The congressional limited train on
the Pennsylvania railroad ran through
Philadelphia Wednesday night at ter
rife speed with the engineer, Joseph
Toms, dead at the throttle.
The train makes two stops in that
city. one at West Philadelphia and the
other at North Philadelphia. Shortly
after leaving West Philadelphia the
fireman, Harry Michner, noticed the
speed was unusual. The train swayed
as 1t rounded curves, but the engineer
gave no signals. Michner called to
Toms, but received no answer, and
when the train rushed through Fair
mount Park and neared North Phila
delphia the fireman climbed over the
boiler into the engineers cab to find
Toms dead with his hand on the throt-
tie. His head was hanging out OF the
window and had been crushed by
striking some object along the rail-
road. Michner stopped the train at
North Philadelphia, where another en-.
gineer was procured and the train pro-
ceeded to New York. The passengers
were not told of the accident

CALLS 1T A "wICKED SCARE"
British Papers View of the Japanese
War Talk

The London Tribune publishes an
editorial article on what it calls the
wicked scare" reports, words that
President Roosevelt is said to have
used about the Japanese situation. The
paper declares that such wild talk new
er will be credited by the responsible
opinion in Englnad, "and the denial
of the president given by our Washing
ton correspondent disposes absolutely
OF these mischievous and unintelligent
rumors.
mo man could have argued more
eloquently or acted more resolutely
than the president to insure that re-
spect for Japanese immigrants TO
which their treaties entitle them. His
tory shows that it Is not an easy thing
for republic to coerce defiant state,
but Americas power to make its own
pledges respected and, above all,
President RooseYelt's reputation as 4
man of his word are at stake in this
question. and the president is not the
man to hesitate"

SLAIN By INTERNAL MAcHINl
Paterson Justice Of the Peace Is tlf
Victim.

Justice Of the Peace Robert Cortese
was fearfully mangled in his Office
Friday by the explosion OF an Internal
machine sent him by express. The
office was wrecked and the detonation
could be heard for blocks.
The Judge had actively aided the po-
lice i'm the capture of Italian law
breakers recently.
Justice Cortese died at midnight
from his injuries He had been home
to supper that evening. leaving his son
Robert in charge of the office. Tt was
the younger man who received the In
fernal machine, which came from
Newark and was delivered by an
American express wagon. 1t had been
prepaid and the boy accepted it. When
Judge Cortese reached the office Rob-
ert handed the package to him. The
outside wrapper was OF paper tied
with strong twine. Judge Cortese re-
moved this paper. Inside was another
wrapper made fast with a strap such
as boys use to put around school books.
Robert says he watched curiously to
see what the little box contained.
His father rested the package on
the desk and pulled the end of the
strap around toward him so as to loos-
en- the tongue of the buckle. The mo-
nient he did so there was an explosion.
a hole six feet square was torn in the
6oor. and the desk was driven down
into the cellar and torn to pieces. The
boy was hurled into a corner and se-
riously bruised and burned.
Judge Cortese was found lying be-
tween the doorway and the hole in the
flooring. Both legs and both arms
were broken, his face and body were
lacerated and torn and his back ap-
parently broken. Some of the flesh was
torn from the bones. He was removed
to st. Joseph's hosuital. where his an
te-mortem statement was secured.

AGAIN PRoDDING SULTAN.
United States Pressing for Settlement
OF School Issue.

tIiteI StatcS Pressing 1Or Scttlcment
OF School Issue.
Wearied with the delays so charac-
teristic OF Turkish officialdom, the
American ambassador raised into
prominence the question of recognition
of American schools, urging the neces-
sity Of prompt settlement of the ques-
ton. The ministers thus ignored have
been stirred into unwonted activity
and the departments concerned, ac,-
ing, 1t is understood. from orders OF
the sultan, have entered into negotia-
tions with the embassy. The embassy
is pressing matters hard with the hope
of final adjustment, and the frequent
exchange of written communications
as we'll as visits between officials of the
porte and the embassy are expected
soon to lead to satisfactory results.
The question was settled in principle
nearly three years ago, but the OBJ
structiveness and dilatoriness both at
the palace and on the part of the porte
delayed the official ratification of the
agreement arrived at.

HOLDS FENCE LAW VOID.
Attorney General Clark Holds Law iss
Unconstitutional.

Attorney General Clark has. in re-
sponse to a request from Lyman coun-
ty, held that in his opinion the fence
law, which is in operation west of the
Missouri river, is unconstitutional and
will not stand a test case. His hold
ing Is in effect that the only way such
a law could possibly be effective would
be to make it statewide and county OPP
tional. If any county voted for the
fence law then it would be legal, 9TH
erwise 1t would not; and that legally
the herd law is just as much in force
west of the Missouri river as it is east
Of that stream. ...n

INSANITY MAY BE DEFENSE.
Likely to Be Plea of Miss Ncwton's
SLAYER.

1t seems probable that Frank
Frink's defense for the shooting of
Miss Bessie Newton at Ponca, Neb..
will be insanity. Already his friends
are telling how he was rorsed to un-
controllable jealousy and anger by
Miss Newton's actions and words.
1t is being told that Frink does not
vet realize that the girl is dead. He
Is said to have remarked to his nurse
that he would like to have the girl call
and see him. He Is still in the office Of
DR.. Young. where he is recovering
from the effects of the self-inflicted
bullet wounds.
The coroner's jury Thursday evening
returned a verdict to the effect that
Miss Newton came to her death by a
pistol shot from the hands of Frink,
to the best of our knowledge and be-
lief"

Changed

Changed.
1t Is probable that a change will bo
made in the place for holding ths
coming annual encampment Of the q.
A. r., department OF South Dakota,
the state Woman's Relief Corps and
auxiliary organizations. At the last
encampment Hot Springs was selected
as the place for holding this years
encampment. but at the time 1t was
understood that trains would be rum
ming between eastern South Dakota
and the Black Hills section Of the
state before June Of this year, and that
the National sanitarium ut Hot Springs
would be completed by June.
Now that it Is certain that neither
the connecting railroads nor the sani-
tarium will be completed by the time
the coming encampment is to be held.
the officers of the G.. A. r., who have
full authority in the matter, are con-
sidering the advisability of substitute
ing Sioux Falls for Hot Springs for
this years encampment. and holding
a future encampment at Hot Springs
