Japanese officials here declare that if a naval battle bfetween the Russian and Japanese fleets is to be fought before midsummer, it will have to be fought before the end of this month.

The work men seem determined to make a demon stration Sunday. The Social Revolution ists are scattering broadcast the most Incendiary proclamations and also are trying to terrorize the shopkeepers by sending them threats to pillage their stores unless they close. Many fantastic reports are in - circula tion to the effect that workmen are drill ing In the neighboring forests, testing bombs, etc. Nevertheless, the authorities appear quite confident, saying that the main danger Is that the agitators will force the workmen Into collisions with the police and troops. Several local societies have formally re quested the town council and Governor General to permit the. workmen to meet, parade and make pacific demonstrations. General Trepoff said he would be glad to agree to this. if he had any assurance that the hotheads Would not display flags, sing revolutionary songs, or compel Inter ference which -is-sure-to lead to blood" shed.

The Governor has caused thc country to Be placarded -with notices that' the troops have received instructions to fire upon any -persons interfering with the Jews. The official account of the disorders says that a general massacre was only pre vented by the energetic measures taken by the authorities. It attributes the out break largely to the situation created hy the Jews and revolutionary agitators, cit ing the following: "On April '22. 300 armed Jews assembled In the state forest near Zhitomir lor tar get practice and used a portrait of the Emperor as a target. When the peasants, attracted by the firing, protested against this us6 of the Emperor's portrait, the Jews explained that the Israelites would soon govern Russia, a few days later a Jew struck a Christian boy of 13 years, who used a pocketknlfe to defend himself. He was immediately surrounded by a crowd of threatening Jews, and was only resetted by the police. Still later, while several Jews, sentenced for .political crimes, w'ere being conveyed to prison, their ed-religionists made a demonstra tion, loudly cursing the Emperor. In an other Instance the Jews sel upon a Chris tian who had entered the Jewish quarter, covered him with raiid and beat him. Tftey also forced several shops to cids.

REFORMERS HOPE FOR DEFEAT Believe Naval Victory Means Tlght ciiing Grip 6f Despotism. SPECIAL CABLE. ST. PETERSBURG, May 12. Every In telligent Russian l.i eagerly awaiting the outcome of Admiral Rojestvcnsky'a final effort to overwhelm the Japanese fleet, as in a great measure the internal peace of the empire depends upon the outcome of the sea fight Intellectual Russia is convinced that the defeat of the Russian naVal forces means the granting of a constlttulon. the only weapon In the government's hands to pre serve Internal peace. Victory means the Increased strength of the Intolerant reac tionary party. With victory far-seeing Russians claim there will conic a renewal of oppression, and the revolution so long expected will come at a time when least expected. The movement has been growing quietly, but soundly,, and the widcsprcadlng of the revolutionary Idea? is sure to bear fruit unless a defeat of the naval forces and a .constitution is offered to the Russians to appease them.

NO FLAX MILL FOB SALEM Project Is Postponed Till More Straw Is Raised. All of the flax grown in Oregon wiil be from this time on shipped to New York mills and no further effort will be made to build and operate a mill In this state for the next two years, at least. This Is the decision that has been -reached by Eugene Bosse and those Interested with him In the raising of flax In the Willamette Valley. The flax industry has had a varied ex istence In Oregon during the past few years, and the long-cherished plan to build and operate a mill at Salem will have to be abandoned for tho time, at least. There i not at present enough flax grown In the state to make a mill pay, and flaxmlll men will not establish X mill here until more flax Is grown. On the other hand, the farmers of the Valley will not grow, more flax unless there Is a mill here to take -care of their straw. It has 'been determined by calculation that a ton of flax straw when reduced would yield approximately 293 pounds of fiber. This will coil tlSM or about 6V cents a pound laid down In New York. Working on this baslsv It has been figured by Mr. Boose that if the fiber could be shipped at a rate of 1 cent a pound or 51 a hun dred pounds from the state to the- New York mills It would he possible to take care of all flax grown In Oregon. After conference with the Southern Pa cific It has been agreed by that road to make the required rate, and It Is an nounced to be now it effect. It is esti mated by the promoters of the Industry, If the rate Is maintained, as it will be, that it will be possible 16 educate the farmers of the state to the advantage of flax-raising, and thus be able to so In crease the output In a couple of years that there win be ample straw grown to furnish a good-sized mill with material for the manufacture ot the coarser grades of linens. It Is the Intention of Mr. Bosse and his associates, therefore, to abandon the effort to build until such a time as the .flax crop" of " the" state will-' Warrant the construction of a mill, but wSen that time comes there will he plenty of East ern capital to finance the construction of aa up-to-date plant.

Hess, Who was formerly a member or the Legisla ture, told the negro he did not have that much money In tho house. The negro ordered, him to go to Belmdnt and get the money. He compelled Hess to nitch up a hors6 and buggy and or dered him to get in with his wife and child. The negro then saddled another horse and, mounting- It, told Hess to drive toward Belmont and. when that place wa near, the negro forced Mrs. Hess and tnc rhild to get out of the bugsy and enter a deserted shanty.
