ing the number Of any previous day

WAR CLOUD RISES
czAR's GOVERNMENT SENDS I'M
PERATIvE NOTE TO CHINA.
Slav Nation Charges Violations Of
Treaty-china Is in Grip of
Famine and Plague.

st. Petersburg, Russia.-The Reich
states that Kulja, AS miles owe the
frontier in the iii region of Chinese
Turkestan, is to be occupied in ac-
cordance with the decision arrived at
by the government because of China's
persistent disregard Of the treaty Of
1881. Under the terms Of that treaty
Russia agreed to %evacuate the Iii re-
gion, which 1t occupied in 1871, on
condition that she receive consular
and commercial privileges in Mongo-
liza and Manchuria.
Russia has become irritated over
China's persistent violation OF the
terms OF this treaty and this feeling
has been greatly aggravated by con
stant attempts OF the part of China
to disregard provisions of other
treaties.
Surmlse Is busy with the probable
attitude of the United States II Rus
STA carries out her threats to China.
The Chinese declare that Russia's vic.
lation Of the secret Russo-Chinese
agreement Of 1896 has been far gray
er than China's alleged nonobsery-
ance Of the treaty Of 1881.
They say the United States has all
the data relating to this aspect of the
dispute and that China is willing to
refer It to an international tribunal.

FLOODS ARE DESTRUCTIVE
NORTHERN ILLINOIS STREAMS
ON RAMPAGE.
Rivers Reach High Water Mark
Sweeping Away Homes-Free-
port Dyke Gives Way.

Chicago, Illlnois-Families took ref,
uge on the roofs of their homes,
dykes were swept away, cattle were
drowned and damage amounting to
hundreds Of thousands Of dollars,
when the Pecatonica, Rock and Des-
PLANES rivers went on a rampage.
Freeport, ILL.,, suffered the most from
the flood of the Pecatonica, which is
said to be at the higest stage it has
reached In so years. Power plants
were put out Of commission, light and
street railway service paralyzed and
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
railroad tracks covered with three
feet of water.
A. F. Needles, his wife and two chill
dren were rescued from the roof of
their house at Scoto Mills, where they
took refuge from the food, my men in
boats. They had been on the roof for
hours and were faint from hunger and
exposure when rescued.
The Pecatonica Is a tributary to
the Rock river which has broken out
of its banks and is doing great dam
age to the country through which it
flows.
The dyke at Freeport was broken
by the food and many of the streets
in the town are flooded.

Railroad Man Succeed Him.

New York City.-George ]. Gould
announced, after a conference with
Kuhn, Loeb & Co., that he is to retire
from the presidency of the Missouri
Pacific railroad, and that he will be-
come chairman of the board of direct
ors.
He announced that a practical rail.
road man, who has not been decided
upon, will be selected as president.
Wall street interprets the announce
ment by Gould as an agreeable way
Of announcing that Kuhn, Loeb & Co.
and John D. Rockefeller have ousted
him from control of the railroad COM
pany.
Mr.. Gould gave out a statement in
which he declared there was no con-
ilict between the various interests, but
this was discounted by the furry in
the stock market in which $4,000
shares of Missouri Pacific changed
hands.
