NICHOLAEVITCH
 IS APPRECIATED
EMPEROR NICHOLAS ISSUES RE- SCRIPT THANKING HIM FOR HIS FRUITFUL ACTIVITIES AS PRES DENT OF THE COUNCIL.

St. Petersburg August 9.-Emperor Nicholas today issued a rescript thanking the Grand Duke Nicholas NiehoIaeviteh for his fruitful activity as president of the council for national defense. and re- lievng him of that post in view of the forthcoming revision of the regulations regarding the council and the reorganiza- ton of the war offices. The retirement of Grand Duke Nicholas follows close upon the criticism of grand dueal intrusion into affairs of state, made in the duma by M. Guekoff June 9, in connection with the discussion of the war department budget. The speaker attacked with es- pecial vehemence Grand Duke Nicholas. saying that he was the principal obstacle in the way of a reorganization of the army. He also demanded the retirement from the army of the grand ducal lead CTS. who. he declared. by their eircum- stances of birth, were not amenable to ordinary discipline.
 The retirement of Grand Duke Nicholas speaks volumes of the influence the duma has acquired oyot the settlement of the highest affairs of state. Of the four grand dukes who were mentioned in the speech of M. Guchkoff, Grand Duke Serge Michaelovitch, inspector general of ar tillery also has handed in his resgna- ton, but thus far it has not been ac- cepted. It is said that the withdrawal of the remaining grand dukes enumerated by M GuchkoffLPeter Nicholaivitch, n- spector of engineers. and Constance Con- stantinovitch, head of the department of mil fad l in order not to attract excessive atten- tion. The plan of reforms in the war of- fees will bring the army under more di- rect control of the cabinet ministry.

Something should be done right away to put a stop to this condition of an archy. It is a blighting shame that peo- pie should be shot down in innocence No one who wants to see law and order but wants to see something done right away"
 ''The outrage of today" said w. B. Leedy. was the most dastardly act that has happened in many a day. It was not unexpected to me. In fact, I was surprised that 1t did not happen before.
 Surely, now, this climax will arouse the business men of Birmingham, and they will decide no longer to submit to this appalling condition.
 "The responsibility for conditions has been placed. I believe that by this time every man in Birmingham knows just who is to blame, and the question to answer is whether we will tolerate them any longer and allow our business inter- ests to be paralyzed while scores of men are being shot down, or whether we will rid ourselves of these trouble makers.
 Delay makes it worse; we must have action"

OFFICERS WILL
 EXCHANGE VIEWS

Berlin, August 9.-The foreign office views with the state department al Washington regarding Liberia, based upon the representations made to both the German and American governments by the legation from Liberia, consisting of Messrs. Gibson, Dorsen and Dun bar, which recently visited Washing ton and Berlin.
 The envoys appealed to the United States to guarantee the independence of Liberia against aggressions by other powers; to negotiate for Liberia arbitration treaties with France and Germany, to subsidize a steam ship line between the United States and Liberia; to send small number of officials to the African re- public to advise with and reorganize it's administration.
 Secretary of State Root appears to have replied sympathetically to the en- voys, but to have pointed out the im- possibility of the United States talk. ing Liberia under it's protection; nor could any promises be made by the secretary concerning a steamship Inc to Liberia.
 The conduct of British agents in ad- ministering the customs receipts in the interest of the bond holders appears to have caused much dissatisfaction and Libe asked Germany for aid Owin to there being a considerable German trade with Liberia, the foreign offica listened favorably to the represents tions of the envoys and has formu- lated tentative proposals for communi- cation to Washington.

 Once more the police will make a round of the post card stands, and if the ob- scene pictures are not removed by noon today, number of arrests will follow. It is not only illegal to have them on dis play, but to keep them for sale and put them on exhibition only on request.
 Nude pictures and suggestions of every kind are under the ban of the law and their presence will not be tolerated.

Bridges the Chasm.

From the Monroe Inquirer.
 Blackberry pie bridges the chasm be- tween the millionaire and the pauper. It is found on the mahogany table of the naughty society leader and on the oil- cloth covered pine table of the lowly washerwoman. It is on the bill of fare of the greatest hotel and is fed to the in- mates of the poor house. The rich man who rides in his gasoline buggy and the poor tramp who rides the rods under the freight car or steps from crosstie to crosstie in the blistering sun meet on a common level at the lunch counter and both order blackberry pie. In a word, blackberry pie is the one article of diet which makes the whole world kin Black berry time, good folks. Is here.

 The results of yesterdays primary election as far as 1t is accurately known in regard to the state officers is given in the foregoing lists.
 Returns Are Slow.
 Twenty-four hours after the polls closed it was impossible to give ac- curate returns on the vote for senator ial indorsement, or the gubernatorial nomination on the republican ticket. The vote was so close and the returns so scanty that accurate statements in relation to those two contests were im- possible
 The returns on the democratic ticket were even slower than those on the re- publican.
 baxv hnx n rtIr in nna direction so that an estimate of the result was possible.
 The vote for the republican sena- torial indorsement in Chicago and Cook county was:
 Senator A. J. Hopkins, 4O,35S; Will liam E. Mason, S9,917; George E. Foss, 50,252; giving Foss a plurality over Hopkins of 9S94.
 In the state outside Cook county the contest seems to be fairly even be- tween Hopkins and Foss with Mason falling far to the rear The general returns were perhaps a shade in favor of Hopkins, but whether his vote in the other counties will enable him to overcome the strong lead gained by Foss in Cook county (Chicago), is not yet known and it will probably be an- other 24 hours before a positive state ment can be made on the result.
 Stringer Wins Easily.
 As to the democratic senatorial in- dorsement. Stringer won easily Hn every county in the state so far as h card from tonight.
 For the republican gubernatoriai nomination Governor Deneen received in Chicago and Cook county 79,7OO votes and Yates 72,109, giving Deneen a plurality in Cook county of 759l. The returns so far as received early tonight did not show that Yates was cutting down this lead in other counties. In fact they seemed to show that Deneen was slightly increasing his plurality The returns, h however, were so slow and scattered that 1t Is possible for Yates to win the nomination. His campaign managers say that he has won by about 10000.
 Adlai E. Stevenson, formerly vica President of the United States, ran far ahead of his opponent for the demo- cratic gubernatorial nomination, all though James Hamilton Lewis of Chi. cago made good run in Chicago and Cook county.

 "Conditions have arisen which, if they cannot be handled by the soldiers al- ready in the district, should be met by every trooper in the state.
 "The leaders of these ignorant stupid, bloodthirsty gangs should be caught and held responsible for every act perpetrated by the rascals who are operating under their leadership. A strike may be all right, but bloodshed and murder are en- trely different things"

 When a revolution composed of men with arms and dynamite, ready to de- stroy everything in their way, Is ram- pant in the Birmingham district, it is time to deal with it as a revolution and put an end to bloodshed.
 Many a revolution in South America has been less violent, less grievous and less injurious to business interests than this and the leaders of those revolutions are now either lost or in exile. This thing must be stopped"

Robert Jemison, Sr., a man with the in- terests of the district at heart said: T think the agitators who are trying to keep the men who want to work away from their work ought to be ordered out of the state. I think the leaders in this strike movement who are trying to keep men from working when they want to work should be ordered out of the state at once
 ''Thousands of men are willing and anxious to work, but are being prevented by fear engendered by the outrages with are occurring daily in the district. I say that this condition ought not to be tol- erated by the citizenship of Alabama. It ought to be stopped. If the state has no law to cope with the situation the

 It would be hard to quote the hundreds of citizens who expressed just these senti- ments. And men who take this stand are neither operators nor miners, but peo- pie with a determination that an end of blood must come.
 "As a citizen of Birmingham, said Ross C. Smith, 'I deplore the condition of lawlessness now rampant in the dis trict. I believe that I but share the views of the people of this district when I say that a small number of men are re- sponsible for this state of affairs.
 Conditions will improve when we make it clear to these men that they are vio- lators of the law, and that upon them rests the responsibility of the crime re- gently committed by their ignorant fol- 1owers.''
 J. E. Shelby said: ''If the governor is not going to take some steps to declare martial law the public and the good cit izens of this district ought to get to- gether and let him understand what they want.
