There-R. G. Rigby Dies at Sea.

Kingston, Jamaica. Feb. S.-The Royal Mail
steamer Trent has arrived here from Southern
ports on her way to New York r. G. Rigby' an
art dealer of New York, died on board the Trent

Among the passengers on board the Trent are
General Jose Manuel Fernandez, known in
Venezuela as eel Mocho,' who is going to the

President Castro was dead.
The crew of the American schooner Andrew
Adams, Captain Bradford, also is on board the
Trent, bound for New York. The Adams left
Caracas last month for Baltimore with a cargo
of guano. She was beached on the island Of
CaiO, to the southwest of Cartagena, Colombia,
about the middle of the month"; owing TO her
leaky condition. The cargo jettisOned and
the schooner loated, but two days later she filled
and sank. The crew took to the boats and pro-
Ceeded to Cartagena. and thence connected with
the Trent.

INCOME TAX OPPOSED.
Stocks Fall on French BOmSe-
Comment of Newspapers.

Paris, Feb. S.--The governments income meas
ure is adversely criticised In banking circles.
especially the feature permitting the inspection
of deposit accounts and the opinion is general
that the bill will have 10 be modified consdera-
bly, If ii becomes law, which is not considered
all certain.
The bill made bad impression on the BOurse
to-day. rentes opening with a decline of Il
centimes from yesterdays closing price and
falling rapidly TO % francs 30 centimes. They
closed at the lowest quotations OF the day.
Other securities shared in the decline. but there
nothing in the nature of panic.
The steele Radical" "Rappel." Ian
terne.' Action" 'Humanite' and other papers
of the extreme t-Republcan group, to-
day hail the Cabinets income measure as a
great reform and justifying the democracy 5
confidence In the government The more moo
crate Republican papers are less enthusiastic.
The "Republique Francaise" thinks it is quite
inequitable the old royalist system. as
it simply shifts the privileges formerly enjoyed
by the richer 10 the poorer classes"
The "Eclair" believes the measure Will drive
French capital abroad and that foreign bank
will be the gamers.
The "Gauois' charges the Minister OF
Finance, NJ. CaillauX. with hypocrisy and lack
of courage in nominally eXempting rentes.
The Figaro" thinks Parliament Will assume
"a heavy responsibility in adopting the measure.
The royalist organs are extremely hostile to
the new taxes. fearing that they will become
an instrument for their oppression. as the mu-
inequalities and communes where the Republi-
cans have a majority could assess the Catholics
and Conservatives at ruinOus figures.

the polling Of yesterday and to-day. which has
practically determined the composition of the
electoral colleges in six more provinces. These
provinces have fifty-six representatives in par
lament, and of this number the opposition has
tventy-one seats assured. and probably will
have twenty-nine. The Conservatives possibly
may get six seats.
The province Of Tyer. the cradle Of the
zemstyo movement has returned a majority of
liberal electors. Among these are F. 7. Rodit
chef. a leader in the last parliament. who is
one OF the few Constitutional Democratic depu-
ties who was not disqualified from this election

day was the cancellation of elections in certain
places where radical electors had been chosen.

ers in Orel
. Since the rupture Of their negotiations with
the Constitutional Democrats. the Socialists of
St. Petersburg have fused with the Social Demo-
Gratis the Social RevolutionIsts and the National
Socialists, and have thrown the gantlet down

tutional Democrats have nucleus the cleo

LABOR RESTRICTIONS OPPOSED.
Japanese People Against a Treaty Which
Hampers immigration.

Toxic Feb. S.-While ignoring the anti-Jap-
anese feeling in part Of the American press
the Japanese public is almost unanimous in de-
manding that the solution OF the San Francisco
school question must not involve the labor
question. A treaty restricting the immigratio
of laborers is condemned here as a one-sided
concession, sacrificing Japan's honor without
any recompense. 1t is felt that nothing derog-
atory to national honor, however slight must be
admitted in the diplomatic relations of the two
nations.

HOSTILITY. IN CUBA.
Opposition to Ne1o Forces-Tht
United States Denounced.

Havana Feb. S.-Governor Magoon received
a dispatch from Secretary Taft to-day directing
the postponement of the decree providing for
an increase from 5000 to 1900 men of the
Rural Guard of Cuba pending the presentation
Of protests by the Liberals.
Objections to this plan Of increase were eK-
pressed at a meeting held last night under the
presidency Of General Guas and attended by
number of army officers. At this meeting Cen
eral Enrique Loynaz del Castillo bitterly de-
nounced the United States, and predicted that
the people Of Cuba eventually would be COM
PEELED to resist American domination, when the
speaker hoped he would have the honor of
leading the patIotic army. General Estonoz,
prominent Negro leader was the only speaker
to approve the proposed increase in the armed
force Of the republic. but he demanded recog-
milton of Negroes in the ranks Of the army, and
intimated that the Negroes were prepared TO
fight for their political rights.
The meeting adopted resolutions protesting
against any increase in the armed forces, the
formation of a militia OF any kind and the en-
listment in the army of other than native
Cubans. General del Castillo predicted an in
fux of American immigrants, which he SAID
would result in the Americanizing of the rural
guard. and consequent military oppression OF
the Cubans Throughout the entire meeting a
strong anti-American sentiment was dominant
A protest was made against imposing upon
Cuba the burden Of the maintenance OF TINS
proposed standing army. NUMBER OF lhe
speakers contended that tbs fractous members
OF the rural guard had been enlisted from the
police force.
committee was appointed to call on Gov
ernor Magoon and present TO him the protest OF
this meeting, but up to a late hour to~lllehI II
had gone to the palace. This committee Is
composed of General Guas, General BetahcoufI
and SeTiOT MOret.
