PETROGRAD, March 13.-Baron
Witte, premier of Russia, and one of
the greatest men ever produced by
the nation, died at his home today at
the age of 81. His death, coming at
this time when Russia is involved in
one of the greatest wars of the worlds
history, is an enormous loss and one
which will be greatly telt by his coun-
try.
A Great Statesman.
Count Witte came in to information
al fame at Portsmouth at the end of
the Russo-Japanese war when the
plenipotentiaries of the two nations
were comforting with President Roose-
welt and representatives of the United
States over terms of peace. While
Japanese were in a position to prac-
tically dictate the terms Of peace, he
represented his country in such an
able manner, and conducted himself
in way that he secured terms which
no other man in Russia could have
negotiated. For this act he was hon
ored by Gear Nicholas and became one
of the most beloved men in Russia
He has always been of the common
people and is one of the few men of
the nobility who had the admiration
and respect of the peasant class.

Capital Quiet Today.
Since the first violence when the

Mexico City has been fairly quiet. To

and foreigners are feeling much more

a general massacre was threatened.
Reports Are Conflicting.
Reports received here about the
killing of McManus are conflicting.
The first report stated that the Ameri-
can fired first on the troops when
they attempted to enter his home and
subsequent ones say that the troops
started firing first. The fact that the
American flag flew over the house
where McManus was killed, is the
most serious phase of the whole af-
fair. Whether the implied disrespect
to the flag will create series of re-
prisals such as happened when HUI
erta refused to salute the u. s. flag
last summer, is unknown. Secretary
Bryan will give out no definite state
ment as to the matter.
