tional Assembly Bright
. Future Foreseen.
ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. S. The Em
peror.'s counselors today resumed at Pe
terhof the consideration of the National
Assembly project, penetrating deeply into
the nature and extent of the representa
tion to be granted. The problem of ac
cording a voice In the proposed assembly
to all classes and interests, without giv
ing undue weight to the representatives
of the- uneducated peasantry, comprising
67 per cent of the whole population, and
of not throwing the control of the assem
bly to demagogues, is one of the crucial
oolnts of the whole system and is cause
for the greatest perplexity, both to those.
who drafted the original Boullgan project
and to the Ministers by whom it is to
be revised.
Thirty-eight sections were considered at
Tuesday's session, but these were unln
portant in comparison with the topics
now under consideration. Though no de
tails of the discussion of Tuesday have
appeared in print, several papers com
ment on the Importance of the confer
ences and base on them great expecta
tions of a brighter future for Russia.
The discussion lasted until nearly 7
o'clock in the evening. The members of
the commission returned to St. Peters
burg without having finished their con
sideration of the project. Tomorrow,
which is the name day of the Dowager
Empress, Is a general holiday, and all
high functionaries will go to Peterhof to
offer their felicitations.
SWEET MARIE 15 SWIFTEST
WIN'S 3IATCH TROTTING RACE
"WITH TIVERTON.
Fastest Time on Record, Next
Cresceus, Made at Readville.
Exciting Finishes.
to
READVILLiEi Mass., Aug. 3. Cali
fornia and New York met today at the
Readville track and, when tho contest
of speed ended, tho honors were award
ed to the Pacific Coast. In one of the
finest speed contests ever seen on any
racecourse. Sweet Marie defeated Ti
verton, two out of three heats, thereby
winning for her owner a purse of $5300.
William Garland, of Los Angeles, owner
of Sweet Marie, 2:04 i, and A. B.
Gwathney. of New York, owner of Ti
verton. 2:04, the two best trotters1 of
last year. vo months ago matched their
steeds for ..5003. v I
It was 2:30 o'clock' when Alta. McDon-J.
eld, behind Sweet Marie, and John
Howell, with Tiverton, appeared for the
ursi. neat, tne latter ge.ung ine poto
on the toss. After two preliminary
scores all was in readiness and the
first time down they gt the word,
with Tiverton a saddle girth In the lead.
This advantage he increased until he
swung down the stretch for home, when
Sweet Marie reached his wheel, but
the gelding won handily by half a
length. The time, 2:05, was the trot
ting record of the year.
In the second heat, McDonald had
Sweet Marie right to her stride and
went away with Tiverton at a whirl
wind gait. For a few strides the mare
showed in front and then the gelding
forged ahead, leading at the .quarter
by a length. This time. McDonald made
!h!s drive earlier, reaching Tiverton at
the three-quarters. From there to tho
wire was witnessed one of the most
Uesperate finishes ever seen on a track.
The 6000 spectators in the grandstand
were aroused to the highest pitch of
excitement and, when Sweet Marie
flashed under the wire a winner by a
neck, the applause was deafening and
continued until the driver had 'dis
mounted and weighed in. Time, 2:04.
In the third and final heat, Tiverton
rushed to the front, but Sweet Marie
yoked him on the lower turn. Howell
pushed Tiverton to the distance post.
Then he, realized he was beaten and
considerably eased his horse, the mare
jogging home a winner by an open
length. Time. 2:06.
The time of the three heats was, with
the exception of the Cresccus-The Ab
bott race at Brighton Beach, the fast
est ever trotted. In the opinion of ex
perienced horsemen, the time today was
superior, as The Abbott was withdrawn
after the second heat and Cresceus went
the mile accompanied by a runner for
a pacemaker.

Lee Gives Interesting Testimony
Missouri Bribery Trial.
in
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Aug. 3. Ex-Lieutenant-Governor
John A. Lee re
sumed his testimony today in the trial of
Senator F. H. Farrls on the charge of
bribery- Lee's denial at a former trial of
Farrls' statement that he (Lee) wrote the
letter fiendlns the 57000 In question back
to D. J. Kelly, of New York, representa
tive of the baking powder Interests, was
taken up in a severe cross-examination
by the defense. Several checks from
Kelly to Lee were Introduced and identi
fied, but were not admitted in evidence
by Judge Davis, who ruled that the In
quiry should be limited to transactions
that took place in St. Louis. This pre
cludes the introduction of a number of
letters and checks which the defense in
tended to offer as evidence.
When the cross-examination was com
pleted the state took the witness on re
direct examination. Lee testified concern
ing the letter, purporting to return 57000
to Kelly, which at the former trial, he
had denied writing, but yesterday ad
mitted that he had written it, saying
that he had written the letter because he
feared that there might be trouble at
some time, and the letter was fir the
purpose of covering up the transaction
concerning the conveyance of the 57000.
but that he did not return the 57000 to
Kelly.
SHUT OUT MORMON VOTES
Moves to Enjoin 'Councllmcn From
Supporting Car Franchise.
SALT LAKE, Aug. 3. A temporary
injunction was issued by Judge Arm
strong In the Third District Court to
day, restraining three Mormon mem
bers of the City Council from voting
for or against a proposed franchise to
the Utah Light & Railway Company,
tiow pending before the Council. The
three members restrained are Rulen S.
Wells, W. J. Tuddenham and A. S.
Barnes. Wells Is one of the presidents
of the seventies and the other two men
hold minor church offices.
The ground on which the jccslralning
nordcr is issued is that these three men,
jjby virtue of their membership in the
Mormon Church, are interested in the
proposed franchise, as the church owns
stock 1n thv Utah Light &. Railway
Company, and the president of the cor
poration, Joseph F. Smith, is also pres
ident of the Mormon Church.
The corporation has a monopoly of
street railway transportation and elec
tric lighting In this clt3 The proposed
franchise is designed to consolidate and
extend existing' franchises held by the

Intimation of an armed conflict between the

I shall not permit the quarantine guards or

that sentiment.

SHAW WILD CORRECT ABUSES
Promises Redress to Louisiana and
Inquires for Facts.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 3. Secretary
Shaw has notified Governor Blanchard, of
Louisiana, that, if any unauthorlred acts
and abuses of discretion have been com
mitted by the revenue cutter Winona,
now assisting the Public Health and Ma
rine Hospital Service in the campaign
against yellow fever, they will be cor
rected as far as possible. This declara
tion of the Secretary followed the receipt
of several dispatches from Mr. Blan
chard, complaining of the action of the
cutter in interfering with fishing vessels
belonging to the people of Louisiana, and
specifically referring to a case In which,
it is said, a boat was captured and towed
away.
Mr. Shaw has also asked for a report
of the operations of the Public Health
and Marine Hospital Service and the rev
enue cutter Winona in the work along the
Gulf coast, with a view to ascertaining
the exact condition of affairs which has
given rise to the complaints of Mr. Blan
chard. Mr. Shaw's reply to Mr. Blanchard
reads:
An authorized by law, revenue cutter "Wi
nona has been detailed to assist Public Health
and Hospital Service in maintenance of quar
antine established by the State of Mississippi.
The State of Mississippi having established
quarantine, pleas advice If, In your opinion,
the act of Congrecs approved February 15.

The act of Congress referred to In Mr.
Shaw's telegram directs the public health
service, under the supervision of the Sec
retary of tho Treasury, to assist state au

against infectious disease and clothes the
Secretary with power to enforce quaran

the public health requires It.
WHY 3IAXY ITALIANS DIE.
Conceal Disease and Take Wrong
Diet Until Too Late.
NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 3. Conceal
ment until the cases are almost hope
less and utterly inadequate treatment
of patients until they fall into the
hands of a doctor, arc considered as
partly responsible for the heavy mor
tality among the Italians who havo
fallen victims to yellow fever. It is
said investigations have shown that
heavy food like macaroni and cheese
have been taken after the fever has
attacked them. That means almost cer
tain death.
Milk is the principal diet, with alka
line waters and the Juice of water
melon to work on the kidneys. To al
lay nausea, the doctors prescribe small
pieces of Ice to be dissolved in the
mouth. Many of the Italians die be
cause they do not get this treatment
until too late. Comparatively few out
side of Italians have been attacked,
and some of these exceptions are little
the worse for their illness.

Government Says It Is Only Means
of Carrying Infection.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 3. The Public
Health Service has issued a circular on
ika srY&tlon of yellow fever. The direc-
tlons given look to the suppression of
the mosquito a? the only means of pre
venting Its spread.
"No mosquito, no yellow fever," Is the
motto in big black letters at the top of
the circular. The document continues:
The Infection of yellow fever is carried by
raciqulto and by no other means is the
infection spread. Persons take the Clt ease- by
being bitten by mosquitoes that have bitten
yellow fever patient. Ttie mosquitoes, " to
become Infected, must bite a yellow fever pc-
tlent durlnc the first three days of the at
tack. The first three days, therefore, are the
most Important time for preventing the ac
cess of a mosquito to a fever patient. It Is
often difficult to decide during the first three
days whether a patient has yellow fever, hence
the necessity in threatened communities of
placing a moequlto bar Immediately around
every patient who has fever of any kind, and
for three days at least.

WOOSTER, O.. Aug. 3. With a request
from Captain Taggart's attorney that the
court order Mrs. Taggart to permit her
husband to see their two sons, the Tag
gart divorce hearing was resumed today.
Judge Easton ruled that both parties had
equal rights in. the children, though they
were temporarily under the mother's care.
The first witness, Howard Taggart,
brother of the plaintiff, said he lived with J
the Taggarts at Fort Thomas. Ky., from

covered Rlthers presence, he said, and
the latter hurried away and did not call

vised the Captain to watch his wife, de
claring that RIther was taking her to a
resort in Newport- The witness said he
never mentioned Rlther's early morning
call or the letter to his brother.
Mrs. Taggart's alleged capacity for beer

test was for the championship of the gar
rison, tho witness said, and the contest
ants were backed by officers. Mrs. Tag

fied that his sister-in-law drank habitual
ly with the officers and prided herself on
taking her whisky straight, laughing at
the men for using water with it. The
Captain, the witness said, objected to his
wife giving their sons beer.
