st. Petersburg Especially The
trial Of Nicholas Tschaikovsky and
Mime Breshkovskaya. on the charge
of revolutionary conspiracy, ended
with the acQuital of Tschaikovsky
and the comparatively mild senee Of
exile imposed upon Nine. Breshkovs-
kaya. Tschaikovsky's counsel was
so pessimistic with regard to the ont
come that he spent the interval while
the jurors retired in planning an APP,
peal. Nine Breshkovskaya's counsel
lamented the fact that she lacked
four years of the age exempting her
from hard labor.
The first CLEAN of hope, however,
came when the judges dropped the
charge against the woman Of preach

der which exile with hard labor was
inevitable on conviction. The jurors
deliberated for 10 minutes Then
the doors were opened and the YER

Breshkovskaya's sentence provides
perpetual exile, she escaped hard
labor, which her counsel consi lers

A handful of friends surrounded
the prisoners, showering congratu-

kisses in typical Russian fashion.
The guards allowed the woman half
an hour with her friends before TAX

where she will await deportation.
The collapse of the prosecutions
case was due to the utter discredit-

crown to present other witnesses
who could connect Tschaikoysky and
Nine. Breshkovskaya with revolu-

indictment. The woman, however.
had pleaded guilty to being a social
revolutionist. The jurors found that.

at present, there appears to be little

The explosion occurred shortly
after o'clock in the No. ~ plane,
where a gang of men were putting
together hosting engine. The
mine was idle all week and the men
were taking this opportunity of put
ting the engine together
What caused the explosion is not
known, but It is believed that the
men struck an unknown accumula-
ton of gas with their naked lamps
The explosion S>as an exceedingly
heavy one and the fall of rock ex-
tended for some distance along the
plane.
The officials at midnight reported
that none of the entombed men had
been reached and that the fire was
spreading. They hoped, however,
that II the men had not been killed
by the explosion that they have been
able to reach a place of safety.
Every effort is being made to
reach the men quickly, but the gem
eral opinion is that the chances of
reaching them are small.

/. 4 s
London Especially A hostile de-
monstration on the floor Of the Cot
ton Exchange at Manchester and one
directly contrasting it for friendli-
ness on the Corn Exchange. at Liv-
erpool, we're met with by James A.
Patten. the Chicago wheat and cot
ton operator.
In the first. Mr.. Patten was mob
bed and probably escaped injury
only by being rescued by the police;
in the latter he was greeted with
cheering and other manifestations of
friendliness.
The brief vacation in England OF
the Chicago operator had been spent
mostly about the Liverpool markets.
and he made up his mind to run
over to Manchester to see the city
and visit the cotton exchange.
AS soon as Patten appeared on
the floor of the Cotton Exchange q
broker shouted "Patten!" Instantly
hostile cries were. raised and the air
was filled with "bOoings" and boot
.ings mingled with an occasional
cheer.
Amid the din the brokers rushed
toward the American, who was
quickly surrounded by a threaten
ing mob and jostled hither and
thither. as the pressure of excited
throngs behind carried those in the
circle up and down the floor of the
pit in an exhausting scrimmage.
After a while. the brokers exert
ing their energies in a common di-
rection made a final rush and drove
the wheat king out of the door and
into the street. The business Of the
exchange was suspended and hum
dreds of men left the pit and fol-
lowed the specnlator into Bank
Street. where another crowd was
soon assembled
At this point the visitor received
a reception even more riotous than
that which greeted him within the
exchange. The mob hurled epithets,
and hundred fists were shaken at
Patten, who turned deathly pale as
the threatening crowd pressed close
ly and seemed on the point OF per-
sonally assaulting him.
At a critical moment a strong
force of police arrived and. forcing
their way through the rioters and
officers, surrounded Patten, and a
moment later they had hustled him
into an office and out the back door
into cab, in which he was hur-
riedly driven to a railroad station.
He took the first train for Liver
pool.

Geneva, Switzerland, June 6-The
Young Egyptian committee, which is

The committee declares that the
speech, or rather that part of il in
which Colonel Roosevelt declared Great
Britain should show a firmer hand in
the government of Egypt, was an in
suit, not only to the Egyptian people.
but to the whole of Europe and the
civilized world as we'll.
The statement issued by the com
mittee is to the effect that it seems
passing strange that a man who spent

whose government he was speaking,
should assume himself to be is a posi-
ton to name the sort of government
which it's people merit and need.
