WEEK IN CONGRESS
DEMOCRATS TO CONTINUE rTLfBUy.
 TERING TACTICS.
Six State and Thirty-four District Po- litical Conventions Will Meet Dur ing Coming Week.
 Speech Making
 Tours.

Washington, April s.-Politics will fill q large measure of the public eye during the week.
 No less than six States and thirty four district political conventions win meet to choose delegates to the na- tional conventions of the Republican and Democratic parties; two States will hold primaries and three candidates for Presidential nominations--Eecret Taft. Governor Hughes and w. J. ,Bry- an are programmed for active apeech- making tours-in various States.
 In Congress. the Democratic nIibus- tep promises still further. to eniiven matters in the House. while the Sem ate will give it's time to appropriation measures. The threat of the Democrat ic members of the House to continue their tactics of the past week will not be allowed to .obstruct the proceedings entirely, although such a course would have the effect of retarding action in spite of the stringent closure put in force by the Republicans.
 The Democrats declare they will de- lay legislation as much as possible by offering amendments and forcing roll calls. and that every motion for a re- cess win meet with demand for the ayes and nays. The Republicans are just as determined which will maintain their opposition to the end.
 The naval appropriation will be taken up and It's consideration will take up a large part of the week. despite the fact that much if not all general debate will be cut out. The employers liabil- ity bill amending the present law as to meet the criticisms of the Supreme Court in the labor cases recently de- cided by that tribunal will be consid- cred on Monday, and as 1t has been accepted as party measure, will be passed beyond question. House com mittee hearings on the Aldrich bill will begin Monday.
 The Senate will make an effort dur ing the week to get down to the seri- ous consideration of the appropriation bills. The Senate will thus be relieved of the necessity of resorting to the gem eral calendar. on which there are al- ways many bills which the leaders pre- fer to have remain there.

MOB LYNCHES YOUNG NEGRO Confesses to Murdering
 White Boy. HANGED FROM LIMB OF TREE Thirtp Men Then Fire Into Negro's
 Body. The Negro Killed Young Son of Pros porous Mississippi Planter snd Then Threw Body Into
 SfilI Pond.

wesson. Miss. April e.--John Burr. a young negro. was lynched near here today by about thirty men for the mur- der of a l2-year-old white boy.
 Last night about dark, according to Burr's confession. and the story of an eyewitness, he was fishing in mill pond. when Earl Smith, the l2-year-old son of J. W. Smith. prosperous planter, approached and began a con- versation.
 The negro shot the boy in the back of the head with a shot gun. Burr ad- mitted the shooting. He threw the boys body into the mill pond and started to escape. During the night he was captured by officers of tho sher- ifrs ofice and was on his way to Jail when just as the Sabbath morning dawned party of about thirty men ap- peared and took the negro away from the officers. The capture was made on a country road and the negro was quickly hanged from tree. Several shots. were fired to hasten his death. The body was then taken down and turned oyer to the proper authorities for burial.
 Good order was preserved through out the iynching.

RIoTNG IN LISBON
TROOPS FIRE AND KILb MANY IN
 MOB.
The Rioters Used Clubs, Stones and Whatever Other Weapon Was at Hand-ElectlOns
 Are Held.

Lisbon, April 5.-The elections here today which were conducted peaceably with the exception of minor disorders in some of the disaffected districts were followed tonight by serious riot ing which was only put down by the Governments vigorous action on the part of the police and the troops.
 The rioting broke out in different parts of the city, as though by a pre- concerted plan. Troops which had been patroIling, and others that had been held in reserve were immediately or dered into action and they repeatedly charged the mobs that in places filled the streets. but without effect. The rioters used clubs, stones and whatever other weapon was at hand and finally the troops were obliged to fire upon them, killing and wounding number.
 This determined action on the part of the officers seemed to have the de- sired effect and shortly the mobs were dtspersed. At late hour most of the Republican voters had gone to their homes but bands of youths continued to demonstrate before the churches. They confined tn cir disorders, however, to shouting, and a recurrence of seri- ous disturbances during the remainder of the night did not seem probable. With the exception of minor disorders af Anios and Alcanara, the elections passed of quietly throughout the country so far as present advices indi- cate. In this city slight disturbances occurred during the day in certain sections owing to the number of cleo tors who suspected that unfair meth ods were being adopted. There was much hooting at and deriding of the police. but the latter did not hesitate to scatter the crowds with strong arm.
 Tn a general way. the elections turned out as planned by the parties in control. The Republicans who had but two seats in the dissolved parlia- nent, increased their representation to possibly twenty. In Lisbon they swept the populous sections of the city. but gerrymanders including the outsides districts offset in a measure this ad- vantage. The Republican leaders are rasing the fry of Fraud"
 They claim that while government pressure seemingly was relaxed. the old electoral machinery was in full operation. because of the fear on the part of the government of a great Republican movement and that there fore the elections do not represent in any way the sentiment of the coun- try.
 As the suffrage is limited to those who can read and write. or who pay certain direct taxes. the Republicans contend that 1t was an easy matter for the authorities to manipulate the, register list against the Republican partisans among the masses. eighty per cent of whom are illiterate. Never theless, leaders like Machado, Almei- da and Cunha, say that the seats they won give them sufficient strength to wage open war on the government in parliament.

NEW ORLEANS FIRE
TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY THoUs-
 AND DOLLAR BLAZE.
Four Business Buiidings are Destroyed in the Crescent City and Sur-
 rounding Blocks Were Threat- emed ct One Time.

New Orleans. April 5.--Four business buildings were burned at the corner of Tchoupitoulas and Natchez Streets today. with a loss estimated by the Fire Marshal at a quarter of million dollars.
 The heaviest less was that of the Morris McGraw woodenware Company, Ltd. whose six-story building was completely destroyed. Other firms which sustained losses were the New orleans Import Company. Ltd. W. D. Seymour. commission merchant Loeb IIyon-Felix Company. Ltd. whoissaIs liquor dealers. and Henry Lochte Co.,. wholesale grocers and lieuor dealers The individual fire loserss did not make public an eeaAmate of their losses or insurance. but it was report ed that a large part of the total loss was covered by insurance.
 The fire was in a section where the buildings are old and built closely to- gether and for a time appeared very dangerous to surrounding blocks.

UNUSUAL INCIDENT
TERRIFYING JAPANESE SOLDIERS
 DESERTED.
The DeseFters Returned To Their Reg mental Quarters Late in the Evening of Same Day-Plaeed
 Under Arrest.

Tokio, Tuesday. March 1O.--A some what remark able incident probably unprecedented in this country, oc- cured recently when thirty-two sol diers belonging to the> 1st Infantry Regiment of the 1st TolSio Division stationed at Alaska (district of the capitaD, deserted in a body.
 In due course, the regimental au- thorities became aawre of the dser- tion and instituted a search for the missing men. but without effect. At o'clock in the evening, the entire body of men returned to their quar- ters during a heavy downpour of sleeet. It seems that the deserters. after leaving barracks. sent a letter to Major Fukuda. commander of the End battalion requesting an interview. The major responded and found the thirty-two men drawn up in military array in front of his gate awaiting his appearance. The major gently rep rimanded them and led them back to their barracks. the deserters follow ing him quite meekly. They were placed under arrest and an inquiry was instituted.
 Full details are not yet known. but 1t Is understood that the men were dis satisfied with their treatment at the hands of a lieutenant named Inok una who had lately been subjecting them to an unusual severe course of phyical training.
 During the past six months, the na- tive papers have from time to time given publicity to instances of bru- tality, for the most part In the army. the offenders usually being petty of- heers and the victims junior privates.

COUNT OKUMA TALKS OF
 FLEETS VISIT TO PACIFIC

Tokio. Tuesday, March 10.~-A few days ago, Count olxuma received a dep- utatfon from the Japanese residents of Sacramento. Cal, and from the Japan ese newspaper men of San Francisco, who wished to solicit his views on the emigration problem.
 The Count is reported by the ver- nacular papers to have said that 1t was very difficult to find out wherein lay the object of the despatch of the American battIeship squadron to the Pacific at this time. A good deal had been made for the movement by the European press. and it was looked upon there as an occurrence of unusual sig nificance. Japan, however, had re- ceived the assurance of the United States Government that 1t was not~in, tended as a menace to Japan. but was merely undertaken for the purpose of training officers and men.
 NevtrtheIess, whatever the real ob- feet of the Government might be. it was indisputable that Japan's emigra- ton policy had been considerably af- fected thereby, and 1t was not easy to sever entirely the despatch of the fleet from inc policy Japan hNd lately pur- sued towards the United States in this connection.
 The analogous problem in the Do- minion of Canada had likewise a bear ing upon the case. Canada was Brit ish territory and Great Britain was un- der obligations to protect the inter ests of her colony. The Count was, therefore, of the opinion that the Brit tsh Government had rendered to the ToIxto cabinet certain advice, in view of which 1t had become impossible for the Japanese Government to adhere strictly to what might be termed a strong foreign policy.

CH0KED HIS VICTIM AND
 ACCOMPLISHED HIS PURPOSE
The Negro Then Returned to Con-
 vict Camp.
He Was Arrested And Hurried re Jail But Mob Of Angry whfte Men Lay Tn Waiting
 And Secured the
 Prisoner.

Mobile. Ala. April 5.-walter Clay ton, negro. who was serving time at the stockade of the Hand Lumber Company for manslaughter. late Sat- urday afternoon. criminally assaulted Mrs. Joseph White. aged twenty years. and was lynched by a mob of seventy live men outside the limits of Bay Minette.
 The assault occurred at the woman's nome, six miles below Loxley. Clay ton entered the house, choked Mrs White and accomplished his purpose. He threatened to repeat the crime and kill Mrs. White but her brother in-iaw came in at an opportune time. The negro returned to the convict camp where he was arrested at s:3O o'clock Saturday night and carried by Sheriff Booth and Deputy Fuller, to whom he was handcuffed. The nee gro told the officers not to take him back to the scene of his crime as he committed it and was not necessary to have him identified. The officers hurried him to Bay Minnette, county seat of Baldwin county.
 As they approached the front gate of the jail, seventy-five men arose from behind a board fence and took HNoa 9S VI ehE hGBNOs QAaARAu& nun and the deputy seventy-fiye yards be- fore 1t was discovered the men were handcunfed together. The deputy was then released and the negro dragged to the scene of the execution.
 A report in Bay Minette today was that the negro was tied behind a farm wagon and dragged to the point of lynching. twenty miles below Bay Mfn- ette. near the scene of his crime. Late this afternoon. the sherifT was still looking for the body of the negro. Mrs. White, who was married last November fs reported In d serious condition from the effects of Ser brutal treatment.

He was a model prisoner at the stoekade and was made a trusty. Mrs Whites father-in-1aw this afternoon said that Clayton had confessed to him during hls confinement at the stockade that he had killed Mckenzie. adding:
 Why, I nearly cut the old rancars head off with a dull knife"

BARONROSEN'S VIEW
GIVES OUT INTERVIEW ON MAN.
 CHURIAN AFFAIR.
Says Comments in Some of American
 Daily Newspapers Are Biased on ,f Incomplete Information or on a MiacOneeptIOn.

Washington, April 5.-Speaking today with a representative of the As- sociated Press, who asked him for an explicit statement regarding Russia attitude in Manchuria in view of the latest developments at Harbin, Baron Rosen. the Russian Ambassador, de- clared that much that was being print ed in that connection was misleading. Continuing the Ambassador said:
 "I have noted with regret certain comments in some of the daily papers which I think are manifestly based on incomplete information or on mis- conception of actual conditions in that remote part of the world.
 Tn the first place. the question of Chinese sovereignty in Manchuria is fin no way involved in the steps taken by the railroad authorities toward the organization of a municipal adminis- tration in the Russian settlements. These settlements have sprung up within recent years around the cen tral stations. machine shops and other esta ablishments of the railroad company at these points on the strip of land bordering on the tracks which had been leased to the company in 1896 for a term of years by the Chinese government, the lease containing specfal proviso conceding to the com pany the absolute and exclusive right of administration on the lands leased. Such a stipulation Is in itself by no means abnormal, considering that un- der existing treaties. foreigners ' in China and foreign settlements in the so-called open ports enjoy the prfvi- leRe of extra territoriality and are, therefore. not subject to Chinese juris- diction or administration. Nor could this stipulation, freely conceded by the Chinese government, be considered as constituting an infringement of Chi nese sovereignty in Manchuria.
 What the plan desired by the raiI- road authorities for the organization of municipal administration at Harbin and Chalar consisted in, and what par tIcular features of this plan have giv- en rise to protests. I am unable to say, as l have no information what ever on the subject It stands to req son. however, that these settlements which have nestled around the sta tions and establishments of the rail- road and which, particularly in the case of Harbin. have quite a large population. are in absolute need of some kind of regularly constituted municipal administration and the plan devised by the railroad authorities was obviously intended to supply this need and thereby to benefit the whole com munity. including the Chinese and the few foreigners who have settled on the lands leased to the company.
 Any disa greement in regard to this plan would appear to be of no more than local importance. In short, noth- inG could be further removed iron, the aims of Russia's policy in the Far East than any desire whatever of questioning, let alone of impairinK.

MRS. E. '. JONES SHOT
 AND KILLED BURGLAR

and two of his mounted men came in about fifteen minutes.
 I told them what had been done and suggested that they might take a look at the ground by fathers window. This they did and as I sat in the room the officers returned Captain Smith asked who shot the negro. replied that I did. Then he haid Well. all l have to say is congratulate you for the work
 .of course I could not say that 1 have any deep regret at having shot the man." continued Mrs. Jones in her statement. 'T feel that I have don only what should have been done un- der the circumstances. You know father Is a very weak man and hoped to clear the premises of the negroes without waking him. But it had to be done. And what must be done will be done.
 But ugh. how prayed that the pistol might fre," exclaimed Mrs. Jones as she shuddered at the thought of the scene. T knew the revolver was not trusty affair but did hope that the spring would work the first time I pulled the trigger. 1t seemed to me fully three minutes be- fore the thing was discharged. Or course. 1t was only the matter of a few seconds. but it just seemed that way.
 It all seems now like dream. just as if 1t had never happened. But l have vowed that if ever another negro burglar tried to enter our house would kill him or do my best.
 You know this is not the first time that an attempt has been made by ne- groes to enter our home. Last sum mer we were awakened by a noise in the kitchen. I went to the kitchen where my sisters were and was frightened by negro who darted out of the door which he had opened and when We thought he had gone did you know he came around to the window and raising the sash peered in at us.
