$50 Associates Arrested.

One hundred and fifty arrests of
lawyers and other acquaintance of
Dmitri Bogrof, the man who shot Stol-
ypin, have been ns1de in Kiev.
Bogrof talked freely of his past life
and furnished the authorities with val
liable clues. The original confident
behavior of the prisoner has given
place to dependency and he is now re-
ceiving medical treatment. Among
the versions of the circumstances lead
ing up to the crime and which must
be investigated is the assertion that
Bogrof belonged to a new autonomous
revolutionary group, the aim of which
is to assassinate individual statesmen.

Son of Sevastopol Defender.
Peter Stolypin was the son of one of
the defenders of Sevastopol, Major
General Arcadia Stolypin. He was
born in 1860. studied law at st. Peters
burg university and began his bureau
cratic career in the department of
crown lands from which he was trans
ferred TO the department of home af-
fairs, Retiring to his estates in the
province of Kovno, he was elected mar
shall of the nobility in the province,
serving with such distinction that in
1902 the government appointed him
governor. AS such he won the respect
and liking of all classes, including the
Jews, by his fairness, his ~frankness
and his ruthless suppression of abuses
by minor officials.
In 1908 he was made governor of
Saratoff and remained in that posi-
ton until called to become minister of
the interior last March.

BALL|NGER AFRAID
OF THE DEMOCRATS
Resigned Because He Feared
the Next House Would
Condemn Him.
palladium Spccial}e

Washington, March S.-Confronted
by the certainty that the new Demo-
cratic house of representatives would
condemn his administration and de-
clare that he had been faithful to his
trust, Secretary Richard A. Ballinger
resigned as Secretary of the Interior.
1t has been believed that he con-
templated this course since the cleo
ton last year. But each time the in
formation has been printed Ballinger
has denied it. President Taft has re-
inforced his denial by repeated state
ments privately that Ballinger's resig'
nation would not be accepted if ten
dered. Bailinger prepared a bill for
referring the Cunningham coal land
cases in Alaska to the court of ap-
peals of the district of Columbia and
let it be known that if congress would
pass the bill he would accept it as a
vindication and quit, but congress re-
fused to pass the bill, so Mr.. Ballin-
ger goes hence without the vindica-
ton.
President Taft has been told plainly
by Republican leaders that he can not
mbake another successful campaign
for President with Bailinger in his
cabinet. By appointing Walter Fish
er of Chicago to succeed Ballinger the
President is manifestly making a bid
for the progressives.

NEW TRIAL DENIED
TO c, & 0, RAILWAY
Probable Now that BeallvieW
Case Will Be Appealed
by the Company.

Motion for a new trial in the case
of the opening of the South n street
crossing over the tracks of the c. &
O. railway of Indiana was denied on
Wednesday by Special Judge F. S.
Caldwell of Winchester, who presided
in the trial held in February in the
Wayne circuit court. Attorneys for
the railroad company contemplated
taking an appeal to the Indiana appel
late court in case the motion was de-
MED, as they expected it would be,
but no notice that an appeal would be
taken has as yet been officially served.
Judge Caldwell approved the mo-
ton of attorneys for the petitioners
for the opening Of the street cross
ing asking that judgment be taken on
the verdict of the jury. Unless stopped
by an appeal, the township trustee and
the railroad company will have com.
pleted the crossing within the next
thirty days and which will serve in
opening large territory in Beallview
addition.
The company desires that the work
OF construction be delayed until the
yards can be removed to some other
point than South Richmond. II the
petitioners for the opening will agree
not to push the construction the com
pany likely will not appeal the case
but if they do not agree the company
expects to pursue this course. il is un
derstood, SO it will not be inconven
fenced while removing the yards.

of having invited officers of the War
department to her house and given
them excessive hospitality and then
wormed out of them secrets of moblli'

These acts. the newspapers say
were committed by her at the time OF
the Dreyfus agitation. The paper
states also that her husband was the
chasier of those English people who
showed their sympathy for the con

ey for his defense.

cuss them.
