HEAVY DEATH LIST FEARED
Sections of Russia Facing Serious
Famine.

st. Petersburg, Dec 9-Russia is
In the grip of a famine that threatens
to claim more lives than that of 1891.
in which more than 1O0, 900 died.
The Free Economic society esti-
mates the crop shortage at $4,000, 900
tons.
In Ufa hundreds of children have
lived for months on acorns, but these
are almost exhausted
In the Samara province the people
are eating dogs and shrubs, while
scores are dying of starvation.
Officials have prohibited the organi
zaiipn- nf private relier socle1ltes:. soct :....,v
forbidden the papers to raise funds
or mention the famine.
Even the Central Zemstvo organiZa-
ton has received orders not to at
tempt relief.
The bureaucracy, as usual, persists
in minimizing the situation, the pre-
mier declaring that the government is
taking all adequate measures.
The situation has provoked heated
debates in the duma, where the oppo-
sition, bitterly assailing the govern
ment, demands the dismissal of gov
ernors in the affected provinces.

ALLEGED MISUSE
OF THE MAILS
nIanu jury LOOkIng InIU UUIIVC-
tiOn Of McNamara Fund.

Los Angeles, Dec. 9.-That the fed
eral grand jury which is now probing
the alleged dynamiting conspiracy
will devote most of its attention to
the reputed misuse of the mails in
connection with the collection of the
Mcnamara defense fund seems GER
tain.
Dozens of postoffice inspectors are
working hard in an endeavor to Sc
cure evidence which will show that
despite the admission of attorneys for
the defense that they knew the men
were guilty for months, they have per-
sistently written to all inquirers that
they were absolutely innocent.
AS a result they have received many
contributions which would otherwise
have been denied.
The inspectors have possession of
many letters sent to Attorney Darrow
and his associates and their replies
and are now trying to determine
whether there has been any violation
of the law. II so, indictments are GER
tain.
Meanwhile the examination of Ortie
McManigal and others, who have been
subpoenaed to corroborate his story
continue McManigal repeated his en-
tire story as first told to Detective
Burns. Now Special Federal Prose
cutor Lawler and Assistant District
Attorney Regan. in charge of the In
vestigation, are working TO confirm
this. For this purpose they have {
dozen of the labor men In San Fran
cisco and Seattle here and will inter
| rogate them.

Census Figures Show Ma
jOrity Of 2,69I,97S.
Due TO SEVERAL CAUSES
At Birth Males Always Exceed Num-
ber Of Females and immigration
Adds to This Disparity-Amone Ma
tive 5orn OF Foreign Parents the
Ratio Of the Sexes Is About Equal.

Ratio Of the Sexes Is About Equal.
Washington, Dec. 9.-According TO a
compilation by the census bureau
there are 47,332, 1872 males and 44,64O,-
LA females in the United States, the
proportion being LOG males to every
100 females Most Northern European
countries show an excess of females
and the contrary fact in the United
States has been ascribed to the ef-
fects of immigration, as among immi-
grants males predominate to a large
extent. This is not the full explana-
ton, however, as an excess OF males
is found In the largest single group OF
the population, the native white OF
native parentage OF this class there
are 25,229.294 males and 24,259.147 fe-
males, or a proportion OF 104 males
to every 100 females. Among the for
eign whites there are 1892 males to
every 100 females. Among the native
born of foreign parents the numbers
of the sexes are almost equal, with a
slight excess of females.
The disparity between males and
females among the native born whites
is due wholly to natural causes.
Why There Are More Males.
At birth the number OF males al
ways exceeds the number Of females,
but male mortality is always greater
than female. Consequently, through
the excess of male deaths, the number
of females gradually approaches that
of males and in the latter years Of life
exceeds it, In countries where the
death rate is high an equality is
reached at a comparatively early age
and the subsequent inequality In favor
OF the females outweighs the previou:
inequality In favor of the males, sc
that In the population as whole there
are more females than males.
In the United States there is gen
orally q lower death rate than il
Northern European countries and thu
difference between the death rates o
males and females is not so marked
The equality in the number Of th'
sexes occurs here at later age thai
In European countries and the slight.
greater male death rate does not over
come the initial advantage which tn
males have at birth.
