BY COUNT TOLsTOI.

BY COUNT TOIISIOI.
Son of the Late Count Leo Tolstoi,
Who Has Been in the United States
for Some Time.
Boulder Col, March 16.-Grand
Duke Michael Alexandrovitch is not
a strong enough man to handle the
affairs of Russia, and that is why the
regency of the grand duke would be
unsuccessful. The grand duke does
not possess force of character to carry
thru the reforms demanded by the
people, nor the ability to handle the
affairs of government.
Russia's revolution is not due, to
the food shortage. The idea is ridic-
ulous and has absolutely nothing to
do with the conditions. Underlying
the whole thing is the question OF
reactionary ministers and the pro-
German ministers in the cabinet.
There is ample proof of this. First
we may take Sachomlinoff, the min
lister of war, who undoubtedly is pro-
German and has proven so. AS min
lister of war he naturally had change
of the army and munitions. His ac-
lions were pro-German at all times.
At one time he even went so far as
to have shells manufactured that were
absolutely of no use to the Russian
guns An investigation was not even
held ror was the minister reprimanded
or punished.
Then there IS Stunemer. who is not
only pro- German but has a distinctly
German name. AS minister of for
eign affairs and political council of
ministers he welded his power to-
wards the kaiser.
The fighting forces of Russia have
been demoralized by these anti-ally
ministers. Since the fighting in the
Carpathians last year when 100000

army, there was a great man and he
could have done more but his power
was cut off. Blu this revolution will
change everything of that character.

filed suit for divorce and obtained a
decree the same day the suit was
filed. She filed it September H. 1909
and the case was heard and disposed
of the same day.
She charged cruelty. violent Ian
guage and similar infractions of do

court granted her alimony to the
amount of $4,000, an attorney fee OF
500 and the custody of a boy. Albert

The divorce decree became a mere
matter of record and Topeka people
forgot all about it until Mr.. and Mrs
Pope slipped away to Lawrence this
week and were married. They were
originally married in Kansas City

HEAR DISSENSION
Kansas City Delegation of
Trainmen Protest, Is Report.
Will Run Every Train, Says
President of Illinois Central.

Chicago March 16.-Conference5
among leaders of the railroad brother
hoods and railway managers today
marked a general Tightening of the
organizations of both sides in prepara-
ton for the general railroad strike
scheduled for tomorrow night.
Early today seven brotherhood
leaders went into secret conference to
prepare strike plans to be presented
this afternoon at a meeting eff more
than 1000 general and local chairmen.
The general managers association
of the railroads was in session at noon
at the Chicago club. None of the
executives would discuss the defense
plans it was admitted they were for
mulating.
X. c. Trainmen Oppose?
Reports were persistent today that
six officials of the various brother
hoods from the Kansas City jurisdic-
ton had arrived in Chicago and were
opposing the strike plans of the train
mems leaders.
Heads of several railroads expressed
confidence that their men would re-
fuse to strike President Markham
of the Illinois Central said that he
expected to operate every train on
the system on regular schedule should
the strike order go in effect tomorrow.
The freight traffic committee of the
Chicago Chamber of Commerce was
scheduled to meet at noon to consider
ways of supplying the city with food.
Lee Expects Some to Dissent.
New York, March 16.-Reports
from Kansas City and other points in
the west that some of the employees
were unwilling 20 obey a strike call
were met by statement by w. G. Lee,
president of the Brotherhood of Rail-
road Trainmen, that the leaders eX-
pected at least one in twelve to refuse
/ TO strike.
| Don't forget history says our Savior
found one Judas among the twelve he
selected Mr.. Lee said. I'VE, there
fore, do not hope to beat His record.
! Don't forget that we left the entire
, matter to President Wilson last Au-
gust and agreed to abide by his pro-
posal then. The railroads refused to
settle the question. I nave since pub
licly proposed to leave the entire con-
troversy to President Wilson to say
personally whether we should have the
eight-hour day in freight and yard
service without reduction of the pres
ent daily rates.

strike rather than abide by President
Wilson's suggestive method of settle
ment. Who is disIoya1 to the govern
ment?"
