THINK RUSSIA. PLANNING
=. TO GRAB PERSIA.

. London, Nov. 20.-A eliminating
step in Russia's plan for a Persian
land grab is seen throughout Europe
in the refusal of the shah Tuesday
to revive the Persian constitution or
to summon parliament except under
the impossible guarantee from the
foreign diplomats at Teheran that
they will guard the safety of himself
and throne.
This decision by the shah has pre-
cipitated outbreaks in many parts of
Persia and the situation, it is expect
ed, will soon grow so threading that
Russia will 'fstep in to restore or
der"
Once in, there is small chance OF
the car ever voluntarily removing
his authority over Persia.
It is thought Russia is planning the
whole Persian movement and that the
shah is either in conniyance with Rus.
STA or is It's dupe.

Chicago, Ill.,, Nov. 2O.-Fifty flour
men were arrested in a spectacular
raid made by the police on a gamb-
ling house at 41O1 Halstead street
yesterday.
The place is supposed to have been
conducted by James O'Leary, whose
saloon is at 4183 Ha1sted street, and
over which a gambling house used
to be conducted.
In order to avoid police attention
O'Leary is said to have moved his
establishment to the building raided
yesterday.
The work was done by detectives
from Assistant Chief Schuettler's Of
flee, and no attention was paid by
them to a report from Inspector Clan
cy, of the stock yards district, made
{ Tuesday, in which he said no gamb-
ling was going on.
The raid was instigated by Arthur
Burrage Farwell, of the Chicago Law
and Order league, who accompanied
the detectives.
Led by Mr.. Farwell, the officers
approached the apparently deserted
building. It recently had been paint
ed red, and the windows were stain
A ed an ochre color.
Repeated knocking at the five doors
brought no response and after guard
ing each entrance a side door was
battered down. y
Scenes Of wild confusion followed.

was followed by rush for the six

Butte, Mont, Nov. 20.Fire this
morning in the fourth drift east from
number two slope of the Northwest
e n Improvement company's mine at
Red Lodge, caused the death of six
miners and probably the death OF
many more. t
Seven men were taken from the
workings at i p. m. in a half dead
condition, and are now in the hospi-
tai. Members Of the fire department
and fifty volunteers then started the
work of rescue and within half an
hour the skips were running down
the fourth entry and a hundred men
were loaded on the cars and brought
to the surface, many of them com
pletely exhausted and lifeless.
Everything in teh vicinity Of the
mine is iii confusion, and it is inn
possible at this time to get q check
Of the members Of the payroll SO that
I an estimate can be made. The fire
I is terrific, Judging from the volume
Of smoke and fire emitted from the
second entry Coal cars and lumber
are ablaze and the damage to the
property will be heavy
This afternoon an iron pipe line
was laid to the mine and there Is
new 4 flaw of water playing on the
flames. The fire itself is said to-
be confined to q small area, but gas
and smoke have spread to the var
ious workings. Most Of the miners
employed are foreigners.

New York, N. Y, Nov. 20.-Twenty-
five persons are believed to have lost
their lives in an explosion of gas
which tore up great section of Gold
street, Brooklyn, today.
1t is definitely known that fifteen
persons were buried under the hun
dreds of tons of earth and debris
that were thrown into the air by
the explosion, and nsore persons are
reported missing. The exact number
of dead cannot be determined until
tomorrow, for those working to I'M
cover the entombed bodies must dig
through fifty feet of debris.
The explosion occurred in 50-foot
deep excavation that had been made
in Goldf street, between York and
Front streets, where water main
was being laid. The gas main had
recently sprung leak and spark
came in contact with the escaping
gas today.
Immediately there was a terrific ex-
plosion that lifted the surface of the
street for half block in all direc-
tons and hurled dirt, paving stones
and debris into the air.
When the smoke and dust cleared
away it was seen that the street had
been opened from doorstep to door
step over an area nearly a block long.
The loosened earth had fallen into
the excavation. burying the scores of
laborers who were at work when the
accident happened.
The known dead are:
Samuel Trout, foreman.

UNIVERSAL GRAB :. GAM"
Champ Clark
This Is What the Next Democratic Leader Calls the
Scramble for Tariff by Lumber BaFOnS

Washington. D. c., Nov. 2o.A
universal agrab game. is the appel
llation given the tariff by Representa-.
tive Champ Clark of Missouri, today
at the hearing before the ways and
means committee on the tariff SEIZED
sule for wood manufacturers policy
for the presentations of forests figur.
ed largely in the argument today.
Several lumbermen said they want
ed, a protective tariff on lumber be,
cause the articles are protected BY
the law. This called forth the term
grab" from Mr.. Clark.
Representative Boutelle Of Illinois,
asserted, in defense OF a protective
8tariff, that the government must Sc.
cure 10000, 900 in revenue, and
that as q result some industries must
be protected

ing of a divorce by his wife, would
not marry a divorced man, recalled
Mrs. Morse from Sioux Falls and
made plans for the annulment of his
marriage.
. 4. That Morse personally called up
Hummel on the telephone, complain
ing of the delay in serving Mrs.
Morse with the summons, and COM
plant in the now celebrated annul-
ment suit, which sent Hummel to
prison, and smirched the regulations
of a half dozen men of the New York
bar.
5. That when Bracken, with the
summons and complaint, and a wit
ness, reached the Morse residence, at
728 Fifth avenue, in October, 1876
Morse had his head out of an upper
window watching for his coming, and
that the door was promptly opened
and Mrs. Morse was then served.
6. That fraction of the money
used by Morse in keeping himself
cut of prison along with Hummel, and
to carry through the scheme, is repre-
scented in a loan of 100000 made by
the National Bank of North America
at his direction to Capt. .'Uncle Jim"
Morse, which has never been paid.
T. That Abe Hummel is now living
in Europe upon substantial income
from a fund placed to his credit by
his former wealthy client, "Mr. Wy
man"-the client preferring to pen
sion a man whose inclinations under
any other sort of an arrangement
might be to return for more.
1t is conservatively estimated that
Morse's matrimonial prank represents
an outlay of 100000, which in a
measure explains the disappearance
of some of the heavy contributions
of Morse's financial friends to his
business propositions.
1t cost Charles M. Schwab $4,000
900 to know Morse, and among the
others who claim to be losers through
investments in Morse properties are:
John Carroll, s1,6oO,0OO; Isaac Gug-
genheim, $1,150,O00; E. Clarence
Jones, 100000, and Ex-Mayor Robert
Van Wyck, 1000, 900.
