note by a vote of "a to 10 and has de-

anti-government street demonstration
was completely swamped by gigan

There were some clashes but no Sc
rious incidents.
Open Rupture Comes.
Open rupture between the govern
ment and the council came when the
latter body took umbrage at the gov
ernments announcement to the Al
lies that the war would be prosecuted
vigorously. Announcement that the
government intended to stand by the
cars contracts with the Allies also
created intense Indignation.
The council charged the government
with failure to keep it's promises to
the workmen's and soldiers represen
tatives and admit them to conferences
on all important matters.
MiIukoff's Removal Demanded.
Crowds paraded the streets all day,
denouncing the ministers Of the gov.
eminent and carrying placards de-
handing their removal. Great throngs
gathered about the building where the
ministers met in gigantic demonstra.
ton against Foreign Minister Milukoff.
Two thousand soldiers were withdrawn
from the Petrograd garrison, and with
loaded rifles guarded the government
building during the meeting.
Crisis Averted for Moment.
Again the crowds pressed in upon
the government building, hooting, jeer.

the ministers, especially Milukoff. The
personal force Of one man-Milukoff
himself-in half an hour had settled
the crisis for the moment at least. and
turned the threatened attack upon the
rulers Of new Russia into a wild dem.
onstration against the Teutonic pow
ers.
There were jeering and Interrupt
tons when Milukoff appeared upon the
balcony of the government building
and signified his wish to address the
hostile crowd. Finally. however, he
caught their attention.

PRIZE WORTH COMPETING FOR
American Business Men Have oppor.
tunity of Securing Firm Foothold
In Russian Empire.

The problem of preserving our
trade after the European war is over
is recognized by every thinking
American as Overwhelmingly impor-
tant. 1t is recognized that a better
mutual understanding will exist be-
tween England and her colonies, and
that The mother country will recog-
nize the sacrifices made by the latter
by bringing about closer bond Of
union-an alliance that will not
prove altogether advantageous to
the United States. Furthermore,
the allies of Great Britain-France,
Russia, Italy, Serbia, and even ia
pan-will participate to greater or
less extent in such a trade alliance,
The federation will be broader than
the British empire, and there will,
no doubt, be preferential trade
compact among the allied nations.
Undoubtedly we shall have to hur-
ry; and the present time is none too
soon to get on the ground. The diff
fculties we already have in building
up and maintaining our foreign
commerce are about to be multiplied.
1t is especially necessary that we
turn our attention to the greatest
commercial prize on earth today
the Russian empire. Is this country
going to get its share of that prize
by reaching out into the field sys-
tematically? Are we going to repeat
the old error committed by our mer-
chants and manufacturers who COM
peted for South American trade and
didn't take the trouble to learn the
language of their customers?-

NEWS OF HYATTSVILLE
Electric Light Company Granted
Ten-Year Franchise.

The mayor and common council OF
Hyattsville last night granted the
Potomac Electric Power Company Of
Washington a ten-year franchise to
use the streets and alleys Of the
town, to furnish light AID power for
the community.
The council entered into a contract
with the company to furnish street
lights for the town. The citizens
will have to ratify- the franchise at
a special election. Discussion arose
over the question OF providing long
er arms for street lights.
The first vote on the whole propo-
sition resulted in a tie, because this
proposition was omitted from the
contract. Mayor Holden summoned
the only absent member. Councilman
Herman z. Burgess, who refused to
vote until a new motion was put.
Councilman Brooks then put practi-
cally the same motion, which did not
call for arms on the poles, and II
was carried.
The features of the contract are
that lights shalle be lit one-hah
hour after sunset and burn until
80 a. m: that all poles on unim-
proved streets shall De moved at the
expense of the company when per-
manent lines are laid; that all dam
age done to sidewalks by employees
of the company in renewing poles
shall be repaved at the companys ex-
pense; that the town be given any re
duction in price of lights that may go
into effect in Washington; that no
penalty be charged to the town un-
les bills are in arrears for more thar
four months: that the lights shall
be the best obtainable and not less
than sixty candle-power; that each
light cost not more than $12 per
year and that a clause be inserted
in the contract providing for lights
for three hours before daybreak
during the months OF December, Jan
uary and February.
