Veterans of 1912.

In the United States we think of a veteran of the Civil War as a. man we'll advanced in years. And in all coun- tries the ranks of those who took part in any campaign fifty years ago arc rapidly thinning. A correspondent of the Frankfurt Zeitung, however, calls attention to the extraordinary longev- ity that distinguishes the veterans of the Russian Army.
 An event that took place during the centennial celebrations of the War of the F'afherland," as the campaign against Napoleon in 1S12 is called, aroused wide interest. The committee that was arranging the festivities in Moscow conceived the strange notion of issuing an invitation to the veterans of this war of a hundred years ago. Foreigners considered 1t pretty and sentimental bit of for1nality. TO their a.stonishment however, there proved to be as much reason as poetry behind it, for twenty-six survivors Of thae terrible winter of 1S12 responded to the call.
 This longevity is all more remark able in view of the rfgor of the climate and the hardshaps to which these old soldiers are doubtless exposed to in. their peasant homes. F1rthernnores <n' the remote districts from which most spicuous lack of progress in medicine and hygiene.
 Naturally. these aged men, crippled and failing. could take no active part in the festivities. Their rspresence. how ever,. was enough to make the oc- casion remarkable.
 The youngest of the ~old boys" was f17 years of age; the oldest was 1es years old. He was born in 17S6. before George Washington was elected pres identrof the United Statest It Is al- most incredible that one mans life should span such space of years

LEMON PRICES SOAR;
 HIGHEST IN TEN YEARS
Those from Sicily Retail at Five Gents
 Apiece.

New York, July July and August are the great months for lemons, and this year prices are the highest for 10 years. During June 1000 boxes of Sicily lemons were sold for an aver age of $5 box. making the total sales for that month $2,000, 900. During the last of June prices were as high as of last week the price was $50, which is more than twice as high as at the same time last year. There are now in port 5000 boxes and 115,- 900 are due on Tuesday. If the heat continues prices are likely to go to $10.
 One reason for the high prices of Sicily lemons is that no California lemons because of the freeze there last winter, have reached this market this season. The California fruit as a rule brings $1 box more than that from Sicily.
 Last week brokers here. realizing that California was bare of lemons, shipped two cars of Sicily fruit to Sac ramento. Inforpation that it was in transit preceded the fruit and on it's arrival the state horticultural commits sion quarantined the cars, claiming that it feared the white fly, and would not permit any to be unloaded. The lemons had to be shipped back to New York, although they were sold at $11 8. box.
 The high prices have made some of the importers rich this season. The crop in Sicily is short and lemons may go as high as $15 a box before the end of August.
 At the present price of $50, each lemon costs at wholesale about two and a half cents, which means five cents to the consumer.

PLEDGE THEIR VOTES
 TO THE TARIFF BILL.
Passage of the Measure by the Senate
 is Assured.

Washington, July 7-Forty-seven democratic senators stood up in the party caucus one by one late today and declared their intention to vote for the Underwood-Simm tariff re- vision bill as finally approved by the caucus a few minutes previously. Two senators, RansdeH and Thornton, of Louisiana. stated that they would not make such 8 promise because of the proposal to place sugar on the free hst fin 1916. Senators Hitchcock of Me- braska and Culberson of Texas were absent, but both are known to be in favor of the bill. This gives the dem occats 49 votes for the bill, or a slender majority of ones with the vote of the vice president to fall back on in an emergency.
 An absolute binding resolution was not adopted, the poll by individuals being substituted. and that poll was put only on the ground of personal promise and was not made binding.
 A resolution was adopted, however. declaring the Underwood-S Simmons bill a party measure and urging its un- divided support without amendment unless such should be submitted by the committee. Senator Newlands Of Nevada cast the only vote against this resolution. but Senators Shafroth of Colorado. Ransdel1 and Thornton did not vote.

ARE ALMOST INHUMAN
 IN THEIR FEROCITY
Soldiers in the Balkan War Usinq
 Bayonets as Daggers.

London, July 7.-The most import ant news from the seat of war is the report, confirmed from Sofia, of the appearance of large Bulgarian force at Vrania, threatening the Servian line of retreat.
 Still more significant, as tending to confirm the belief that the Servians are suffering defeat, . s the announcement from Belgrade that only mea, ,sre re- ports are being received from the Ser vfan army headquarters and that the government has decided to publish re- ports only on alternate days Tn ad- dition a rigorous censorship on the newspapers is being enforced and the publication of special war editions has been stopped.
 The Servian wounded describe the battles as almost inhuman in their ferocity. the men throwing away their firearms and usipg their bayonets as daggers. This accords with the in- formation from many sources of the wholesale slaughter witnessed in the present struggle.
 Whatever the policy of the European powers may be. little is now heard of attempts 10 stop the war. The ann bassadorial conference met in Lon don again today. but apparently did little else thar discuss the boundaries of Albania

NO UNDUE INFLUENCE
 BY LADY SACkVILLE
Probate Court UphoIds Will Of Sir
 John Murray Scott.

London, July 7-The great estate which the late Sir John Murray Scott, the eccentric millionaire and art con- noisseur inherited from Lady Richard Wallace will be disposed of in accord ance with the terms of his will made in 1901 and of the five codiciIs giving more than half of his property to Lord and Lady Sackville the latter daugh- ter of former British minister at Washington, who succeeded the Sack vfle- Vests as tenants of the famous country seat Knole park. Seven Oaks, Kent.
 The jury of the probate court, where the suit had been in progress for eight days. pronounced a verdict today up- holding the will. After only ten min utes' consideration they decided that Lady Sackville was guiltless of the charges of fraud and undue influence brought against her by members of the Scott family and cast the burden of the costs of the suit, which will be extremely heavy, upon the late baro- nets relatives.
 Lord and Lady Sackville will obtain about $2.500,000 of the $5,800,0O0 of the testators property, including some of his magnificent art collections.
 Many of their friends among the aristocratic audience assembled in the court offered their congratulations to Lord Sackville and his daughter. "the kidlet." Lady Sackville was not pres ent today, as she was resting after the severe strain of the cross examination she underwent last week.
 The verdict of the jury seemed to be a fOregone conclusion after Sir Samuel Thomas Evans, the presiding judge, had delivered his charge to them before they retired. He express ed strongly the opinion that Lady Sackville was guiltless of fraud and said that Sir John Murray Scott ap- parently had felt he had found a cus- todian for the art treasures, which he desired the Sackvilles to keep at Knole park, and had realized that he must leave money to enable them to be kept, For undue influence, he said, there for fraud there must be something like representation to the testator of facts which did not exist.
