a. general dragnet will be thrown all
over the state summoning the members
of the jackpot brigade whom Becke-
meyer has named.
The confession was dictated by
Beckemeyer and Will be related before

revelations that Mr.. Burke has decided
to drop for the time being and place
the Jackpot in the center of the stage.
The new stlbpoenas will be issued just

ROME, Oct. 29.-The other day a
report was circulated here TO the eff
feet the Pope was again i'll, that his
condition was serious, and that the
doctors were in consultation over
him.
But the report was entirely unjus.
titled, for on the very day that it was
printed here, Pope Plus received in
private audience Bishop Kennedy, rec
tor of the American College, who in
troduced to the Holy Father Miss Is
abella Ryan, of Dubuque, Iowa, and
her sisters. with whom the Pontif'
conversed most amiably, and to whom
he impaired special Apostolic Bene-
diction as a reward for their loyalty
and generosity toward the Church.
These Americans say the Pope could
not have looked better than he did on
the occasion of their visit.

RUSSIA WAGES
RELENTLESS WAR

ST. PETERSBURG, Russia, Nov 3.
Statistics just at hand show how re-
lentless has been the governments
campaign against all persons suspect
ed of participation IN the revolution
airy movement of 1905 1906. Last Sep
TENDER sixty men were condemned to
death in different parts of the king
dom. This brings the number CON
demned to death in the last nine
months up to 1868. OF these 11S have
been executed.
During the same period the on
slaught on the press has been increas-
ingly vigorous. In September peri
odicals in the various provinces have
paid 5000 rubles (S2,5OO) in fines i'm
posed by the police and the govern
ors. Many papers, especially in Pc
land, Georgia and Little Russia, have
been compelled to suspend payment
owing to fines.
In the last nine months 1872 fines,
amounting to Al 900 rubles ($20,500),
have been imposed on the newspa-
pers, yet, according to the constitu
ton, Russia has liberty of the press
Though five years have elapsed
since the constitutional movement
was begun and the people who tooi
part in it have long been leading
peaceable lives, the gvernment is vim
dictively prosecuting all of them OF
whom it can lay it's hands. Many OF
these in Frauenberg, Riga province
we're handed over 10 a military tri
bunal on the charge of taking part III
the revolutionary rising of October
and November, 1905. The number
thus accused was 224. Oct. "a sixty

NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-Marked gains
in the socialist vote throughout the
state are shown in the returns from
yesterdays election. Figures avail
able indicate a total vote for Charles
Edward Russell, nominee for COVER
nor, of $4,000, nearly double the 49,
1914 votes of 1908. In New York city
Russell received 27,2SO.
Most significant are the increases
upstate. Sixty-five cities that gave a
vote of 1850 a year ago show $4,000
this year. Outlying districts, which
formerly showed less than 10 votes,
this year report from 100 to 500.
Among the large cities that show
substantial socialist gains are Buffalo,
Schenectady, Syracuse and Rochester.
