SENTENCED TO DEATH.

Penalties of death or life imprison-
ment have been melted out to the men
and women members Of the youthful
band that for IS months during 1907
08 committed a series of murders and
robberies that kept the residents of a
considerable territory OF Russia in Q
state of terror.
Twenty-nine men, ranging in ages
from Is to % years, were sentenced to
death. Eight women escaped hanging
because of their sex, but were sentenced
to imprisonment for life A 15-year-
old boy who was shown 10 have been
an active outlaw was sent to the colony
for juvenile offenders.
The most sensational feat of this band
was accomplished August %, 1907,
when they held up train on the Coast
Railroad and robbed the cashier OF the
Sestraretska Imperial Arms factory of
So. 800 Colonel Sudelkin, who sat
near the cashier, was fatally shot. Many
factories and wineshOps were looted,
and among those who suffered death at
the hands of the desperadoes were a
student, woman and several police
men. The condemned showed great
bravado during their trials and TESTED
as their sentences were pronounced.
Several of the accused had been tried
earlier and convicted Of individual
offenses. One Of the number commit
ted suicide while in Jail awaiting trial.
The trial of the so-called Frantzen-
burg Center, the last big case connect

lutionary militia which attacked the

ovERLooKs FREIGHT INCREASE.

Administration citation over the coup
Of Attorney General Wickersham in
enioining the Western Trunk Line
freight rate increases of Tuesday, had
70 be modified a bit yesterday by the
discovery that, for some reason, the
Department Of Justice had not made a
complete job of its move. The tenn
porary injunction granted by the L. ).
Circuit Court as the announced prelude
TO suits for conspiracy against 20 rail-
roads involved in the incI9sas it was
discovered yesterday, covered only a
part of the rate advances leaving
others to 90 into effect yesterday.
The injunction applied only to tariff
A 115. mentioned in the bill filed be-
fore the Circuit Court by representa-
tives of the Department OF Justice.
The tariffs filed practically simulta-
neously with the Interstate Commerce
Commission by the Western Trunk
Line Association, making advances IN
the rates in commodities between CHI
cago and Milwaukee and between Chi
cago and St. Paul, and between St.
Paul and Eastern destinations on wool,
being untouched, are in effect today
While these tariffs are not so import
ant as those making general advances
in commodities between Missouri river
and Mississippi river transfers, they
nevertheless are Of considerable con-
Germ to shippers in Western Trunk
Line territory to Atlantic seaboard
points. The increase in the freight
transportation of wool from St. Paul
points to New York and Boston, particu-
iariy, is of immense interests to the
consignors, as it means a fiat advance
of 10 cents a hundred pounds This in
crease applies to all western wool pass
ing through Minneapolis or St. Paul
destined to Atlantic tidewater destina-
tons.
it is not explained why the iniunc-
ton sought by the Department of JUS
tice was not made applicable to all of
the advances recently made by the
Western Trunk Line Association.

WINGED that Attorney General Wicker

ROOSEVELT LUNCHES WITH
IRISH MEMBERS.

Contrary to the general expectation,
Mrs. Roosevelt did not 60 to EPSON
Yesterday to witness the running OF
the Derby. He spent the morning
visiting the National Gallery accom-
panied by Lieut.. Col. Arthur Lee, the
former British military attache at
Washington and c. A. Spring Rice
Afterward he took luncheon with a
number of Irish members Of parlia-
ment at the Carlton Hotel John Red
mond and T. P. O'Connor were among
those who entertained Roosevelt.
In addition to those already men
toned John Dillon, Mr. Devlin and IA
other nationalists were present.
John Redmond, the Irish national
list leader, proposed the health of Col
onel Roosevelt The latter did not
indulge in a talk on Egypt at the
Guild Hall Tuesday, but returned his
thanks for the entertainment in hui
mOrOus fashion.
The luncheon was originally intend
ed to be held in the House of Com
mons, but owing to the death of King
Edward this was found to be impos-
sible. and as most of the Irish mem
bers were in Ireland, Mr. Roosevelt
expressed the wish that only deputa-
ton of that organization should cross
over to take part in the function.
Some Of the Irish members suggested
that perhaps it would be more conve-
nient if the luncheon should be aban-
doned. but Mr.. Roosevelt said in an
interview that the affair was one tc
which he had looked forward with spe-
cial interest, and he would be disap'
pointed if it were abandoned.
The proceedings were private. There
we're no set speeches. Mr.. Roosevelt
in his address, referred to his descent
as partly Irish. Two Irish officers, he
said. were beside him in Cuba, and two
men OF Irish descent were in his cabi
net. He invited William Redmond
IT. P. O'Connor and Mr. Deylin, who
are going to the Unitsd States in Sep
TENDER. to spend an evening with hin
at his summer home ia Oyster Bay,

Recent improvements.

The gradual spread of Alexandria to
the west and north is becoming more
noticeable all the time. Street improve
ments and sewage systems in those
sections are augmenting the value OF
real estate, and in few years many
new homes will have been erected.
Suburban towns have sprung up dur
ing the past decade and many new
buildings are being contemplated, while
others are in course of construction.
These new towns, while in Fairfax and
Alexandra counties, are in reality the
overflow Of this city. The new street
work on King street extended will give
a stimulus to building in the country
adjoining Alexandra on the west and
northwest.
