c"ertain that the recently revived Council

BREAKING DOWN UNDERTERROR
Grand Duke Vladimir Lives in Daily
Dread of Assassins.
ST- PETERSBURG, Feb. 2S.-The utter
Imgotepcy of the police in the face of -the
terrorist organization Is shown by the
increasing, boldness of the latter all over
Bt. Petersburg.- Even on the side of the
public buildings simple notices of Grand
lske Sergius' death were found. They
read:
"The sentence of death - passed upon
Sergius Alexandrovitch was executed
February 1" Tne Fighting Organization
Moreover, the notices "were neatLv nrint-
, a Otlzs unknown in the -lays of the.
late; Interior Minister voa Plehve, when
similar notices were always run off op.
copying machines. The secret police then
were too "close on the heels of the terror
ists to permit the use of a printing press.
The Grand Duchess Marie Pavlovna,
whose husband, the Grand Duke Vladimir,
is Tilgh on the fist of those coiiicmned
to death. Is trying to shield his life with
her own. Since Red Sunday the Grand
Duke has not only been showered with
threats and warnings, but has twice re
ceived from abroad formal letters signed
by different groups Informing him of his
sentence to death and of the assignment
of men to' execute It Aftne same time
the Grand Duchess Marie, like the Grand
Duchess Elizabeth, in tho case of Grand
Duke Sergius. was notified that her life
and her son's? life would be spared, and
she -was appealed to not to go abroad in
her husband's company.
The letters naturally terrorize the fam
ily and household of the Grand Duke, who
has aged greatly during the last few
weeks under the strain of what ne insists
is the unjust criticism which placed the
responsibility for the bloodshed of Jan
uary 22 wholly on his shoulders- Although
the Grand Duke's health had been failing
Xor-over a year, he is now almost a. com
plete wreck.
For a time the entreaties of his family
and the warning of the police sufficed' to
keep him within the walls of the palace,
but since the funeral of Grand Duke
.Sergius, Grand Duke Vladimir has
shaken off restraint, declaring that be
refuses to show cowardice, and not only
drives out in a closed carriage, but on
Sunday walked for a short time up and
down the quay in front of the Winter
Palace. At his side, however, on each
occasion, was the Grand Duchess Marie
Pavlovna. The Grand Duke tries to elude
her, "butrshe insists on being immediately
apprised if he goes out, donning wraps
and accompanying him.
Today Grand Duke Vladimir received a
letter from one jgroup which had pre
viously warned him, saying his sentence
was temporarily suspended, which is at
tributed to a more correct apprisement of
his share in ihe events of January 22, or
to a general decision of the terrorists to
give the autocracy a breathing spell and
await the result of the assassination of
Grand Duke Sergius.
The latter coincides with the views of
those acquainted with the methods of the
terrorists, who point out tliat a succes
sion of assassinations- would defeat their
object by compelling the Emperor in the
interests of the safety of the imperial
family to thrust aside all questions of
concessions and to sanction the most
drastic measures of repression.
GORKY IS BANISHED TO RIGA
Bids Farewell to Family and Friends
at Station.
N'EW YORK, Feb. 2S. Maxim Gorky,
who was released from prison yesterday
and immediately rearrested, has, accord
ing to St. Petersburg dispatches to the
New York American, been escorted by
government agents to Riga. The author
told his friends who gathered at the rail
way station that he wanted to go to the
Crimea, but the government refused his
request.
Mme. Gorky, with her young son, was'
awaiting his arrival at home, when she
was called by telephone late in the even
ing. An unknown person said to her:
"Gorky will leave the Warsaw station
for some unknown destination at 10:16."
"Thank God!" exclaimed Mme. Gorky.
I will go immediately."
Summoning a sleigh, she carried her
ailing son and hurried to the station. The
author was there with eight friends and
two government agents.
The boy kissed his father's hand re
peatedly, while Gorkys friends crowded
about the family group, crying affec
tionately: "Alexander Michaeleovitcb, we congrat
ulate you!"
Save for Gorky's family and the group
of friends, there was no demonstration.
To a correspondent Gorky said:
"I want to thank you and all the world
for the sympathy expressed to roe."
"Where are you going abroad?"
"You don't imagine," Gorky answered,
"that the government will let me go
abroad? I am going to Riga, on the
Baltic."
"Is your health better?"
"Thank God," he answered, "It might
be worse."
He said this cheerily and with a loud
laugh.
"You have never suffered from your
prison experiences?"
"So," he answered, "I only want a
rest. My friends' kindness is itsolf cura
tive. I wanted to go to the Crimea,
where tho climate is warm, but the gov
ernment won't allow me to go there or
to Moscow."
In the midst of an affectionate leave
taking from his wife, sons and friends,
the train bell rang a last warning.
Gorky shook hands all around, kissed his
wife, lifted up little Maxim, kissed him
on both cheeks, and then stepped la the
car, while his wife sobbed quietly and his
son screamed "Good-by. papa, good-toy!'
One of the secret service men slammed
the car door and the train steamed out
of the station.

HOW TOQO NOTHING
Subject Studied by Opponents
of Rate Law.
FOOL AWAY EXTRA SESSION
If It Is Called in October, Tariff and
Appropriations Can Take Up
Time, and the Committees
May Delay Reports.
OREGOXIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Feb. 2$. A statement emanating
from members of the administration,
close to the President, indicates that ho
some time ago concluded that there
would be no legislation regarding railroad
rates at this session of Congress. Thl3
statement announced that there would
be an extra session of Consress early In
October If there was no rate legislation
before March i. It was well known before-
that such was tho Intention of the
President, so It must have been in his
mind for some weeks that there would
be no action this session. His close
friends in the Senate were of that opin
ion, although ho did not make any official
statement on the subject
It will sUll be possible to defeat any
rate legislation if the matter Is put off
until October. At that time there is
possibility of tariff legislation being
brought forward, as the deficit In the
revenues will be so large that changes In
the tariff laws to raise more revenue will
be Imperative. A tariff debate can be
interminably prolonged In both House
and Senate, and can be used to stave oft
rate legislation until It is time for Con
gressmen to go home and look after their
nominations. This would bring about an
adjournment, carrying over any rate leg
islation again to a short session, and
those who are favoring rate legislation
will be confronted with the same condi
tion as this year. This has been out
lined before, and is stated by somo of
the most ardent friends of the President
in the House of Representatives as being
the plan and programme of the men "who
intend that there shall be no legislation
whatever. They make tho argument that.
If the President wants anything don?, he
will have to have It commenced in March
or April, rather than In October.
As showing how easy It will be to post
pone legislation in a session called in
October, it need only be pointed out la
the first place that nothing can be done
until the committees are organized In
both House and Senate. The Speaker
can take his own time to appoint House
committees. It usually takes a month,
and sometimes six weeks, to fix up com
mittees. That would carry it to the
mladle of November. There would be an
early recess for the Thanksgiving holi
days, and probably It would last until
the regular session in December. Then
there would be two weeks before the'
holiday recess, which always takes from
two to three weeks.. Therefore it would
be the second week In January before
committees could get down to any real
work. It has already been demonstrated
how long it takes for committees to re
port bills when they want to delay. The
art of killing time is understood by all
those committees, and there would be no
reason for hurry during the Fall and Win
ter. Meanwhile, if there was tariff legis
lation, that would cause discussion. Then
there would be the appropriation bills
and other matters which would take time.
Before the people realized fully what
was being done, adjournment would take
rplace In order that Congressmen could
attend to election matters. Such is the
scheme, as suggested by those who pro
fess to be on the inside and who want to
support the President. It I3 the argument
in favor of a Spring session, rather than
a Fall session, but the President has not
been Impressed by It, and perhaps when
Congress really meets In October, sum
moned by the President, and convened
with a ringing message, delays will be
impossible. '
RACES WITH USE.
(Continued from First Page.)
Co. sold the Oregon to Sol Simpson, A
wealthy Puget Sound logger, for $50,
000. Mr. Simpson organized the White
Star Steamship Company, of Seattle,
spent another $50,000 on her In patch
ing up her hull and machinery and in
putting in new boilers, and the ' craft
that had been condemned by the in
spectors as having outlived her useful
ness emerged from the yards almost as
good as new. Before the Portland
company had sold her, the Oregon had
made one trip to Skagway at tho be
ginning of. the Klondike excitement,
and the Nome boom being now on.
Simpson sent her to the new Eldorado
with such success that In the first two
trips she paid back all he had spent
on her. '
Last "Winter the O. R. & N. Co. leased
the steamer and ran her for several
months while the Columbia and the
Elder were being docked at San Fran
cisco. "When the Elder was sunk re
cently at Goble and the Costa Rica,
-which was put in her place, proved In
adequate for the service, the company
again leased the Oregon from the White
Star. Her charter extends to May 5,
by which time It was thought the
steamer St, Paul, recently purchased by
the Harrlman system, would be ready
to zo- on this route, to serve until the
Elder can again bo put in commission,
or to run throughout tho Fair If busi
ness warrants it. The Oregon had
completed one trip under her present
charter and had just sailed from San
Fancisco on her second voyage when
the fire occurred oft Crescent City.
It is not known at the office here
what arrangements will be made for
continuing the service. The St, Paul
is undergoing repairs at San Francisco,
and as'oil burners are being put In her.
it may be some time before she is ready
for service. The Harrlman Company
hava a number of other steamers that
they may be able to put .on, and it is
possible that tho Costa Rica or tho
Newport will be sent north.
