LONDON, Feb. 21. The director of
(lie prison dcpat-(tneu( of the Russian
ministry of justice reports that last
summer 70,tnt0 extra places were re
quired in the prisons of tlie empire. In

the largely increased grant made nec
essary by M. Stolypin's policy of
" tliorougb, " the prison department was
obliged to place before the budget coin
inission some lerrihle statistic!!.
The great increase in the number of
prisoners to be lotlg.-d was first i-liown.
According to the official figures, the
average number of prisoners to be 1'ound
in tlie prisons of Hi" empire was: In

BAND OF CROOKS HEADED
BY WOMAN CAPTURED
LOS ANGELES, lal.. Fob. 21. 11V
the arrest yesterday and today of a
band of six persoutt. Leaded by a worn

the hands of the police here. With the
prisoners was seized enough nil ro glyc
erine to blow up half the town, a com
plete safe cracking plant and other
tilings needed by criminals to open the
strongest safes in tlie country.
SUBSTITUTE BILL IS
SOMEWHAT DRASTIC
SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 24. Al
though a severe blow was toiiuinistereil
to tlie forces of prohibition when the
Mute senate today adopted the report of
the manufactures auJ commerce com
ntiltce recommending llie defeat of the
I'annon statewide measure, the an
nouncement subsequent ly that a substi
tute measure lias lie -n drafted by the
committee mitigated considerably the
sliock to the represent:!! ive;; of the anti
s.-'loen league.
The substitute bill, while making no
provision for statewide enforcement, is
not wholly devoid of drastic features.
Its intent is to reglllale llie tlill'tic of
liquor ill the state under high license.

Age. Of this loss. $ I Itl.ilMO.Ooo was in
frame buildings, and but iS,tlOtl,tHltl in
brick and stone. This terrilde waste
is not equaled by any other nation. Our
per capita loss is nearly eight times
that of Europe, which i reported by
the national board of underwriters as
but XI cents for six leading companies.
I uder similar condition':, the fire toss

bu; $-J7,llllt i.ooo, and !S7,oOO,llO!l would
have thus been saved. Nor is this all.
The I'nited Slates lias the finest and
most efficient fire fighting apparatus
and private fire protection iu tlie world.
Klilllilllll itig the loss to property des
troyed in fires, the cost of fire protee
lion for liH'7 amounted to $2 1 1. 01 1,4 12.
