STIR IIP RADICALS
Russian Reactionaries Are In
citing to Open Outbreak.
SEEK TO ROUSE PEASANTS
VJcws Arc Declared to Be the Authors
Hor Empire's Misfortunes, and
Proclamations Urge Slaugh
ter Wherever Found.
SI. PETERSBURG, March 1L Some of
tho reactionary organizations are push
ing the agitation against the radical clc
inonts to a dangerous point. Today a
"league of the Russian People" held a.
.service Jn the Alexandcrcvsky monastery,
to colobralc the manifesto on March 8 as
a victory for the old regime. I-atcr, at
the Horse Gunrd menago, the lighting so
ciety of the same organization held a
public meeting and listened to inflamma
"tory speeches by Dr. Doubrovln and Pro
fessor Xlkolsky. two extremist leaders,
at which the orators openly summoned
their followers, the Black Hundred, to
kill the Jews and hang Count Wittc.
Prince Mestchcrsky. editor of the Graz
nanln. who supported the "Wittc section.
Charges the bureaucracy witli having
sjympathy with the court clique, which
is opposing the plans of the Cabinet, and
with inciting class hatred and strikes,
with the purpose- of making the national
assembly a failure. Ho quotes Profor
?oo!sky as declaring that friends or the.
Autocracy should see that a number of
revolutionaries are elected, in order to
furnish an excuse for dispersing the na
tional nssemblj- with bayonets.
As proof of the complicity of the bu
reaucracy. Prince Mcstcherky prints a
proclamation against the Jews which, he
asserts, was printed In the typography of
the- pollcemaster, with the approval ot
the censor, and widely distributed. The
proclamation, which Is addressed to
workmen and peasants, declares that the
authors of Russia's misfortunes are the
.Tows, who throughout the world hate
Russia and want to rob the peasants of
thMr land and make them their slaves
and "unfrock the priests and turn
churches into Jewish stables and plg
tyes." The proclamation alpo aaserts that the
Armenians. English and Germans want
to destroy Russia and divide the country
among its enemies. The proclamation
ealls Count Wittc a supporter of the
Jews, as the chief enemy of the country,
and summons the faithful, wherever
they llnd Jews, to "tear the Christscllcra
to pieces."
Prince Mestchcrsky calls attention to
the unrest among the peasants and warns
tho "bureaucracy that It is playing a des
perate game in arraying class against
ilass. "If today the .peasants are incited
to slaughter millions of .Tows, the Ar
menians tomorrow may be seized with
the mania of murder and mapsacres may
occur everywhere without regard to race
or class."
Another Important development In the
political situation, though more moderate
In character, was tho subjf'ct of what is
called the reactionary elements in wrest
ing th "control of the Zemstvos from
the hands of the liberals. Although the
Zemstvosts are not elected and not
democratic In their views, they hereto
fore have been in the forefront of the
fight against tho. old regime.
The issue -was raised lay- the Zemstvost
nnon tho demand of the federal admln-
-i5tra.tloii 3h" tnn "provinces to discharge
doctors, teachers, agricultural expert
!Tnd other employes of Zemstvos suspect
ed of revolutionary tendencies. At Mos-
, cow the I-iiberals mode a hard light to
protect tho employes, but the reaction
aries, under the leadership of M. GuchofT.
were victorious", whereupon 30 Liberals
resigned.
At Toula the struggle was so "bitter
that two challenges to duels were ex
changed, one of them between Prince
Dolgoroukoff and Prince Ourussaff, the
latter heading the reactionaries. Neither
of the. duels was fought, but the reac
tionaries won.
The entire staff of the sanitary depart
ment of the Zemstvos was discharged and
th department closed. A resolution was
adopted to the effect that tho revolution
ary propaganda must not be stopped.
A similar contest is being waged In the
St. Petersburg Douma and has already
resulted in tho resignation of M. Pctrun
kevich. president of the medical com
mlsrfon. Bartnctt Leaves Russian. Capital.
ST. PETERSBURG. March 11. Walter

DENOUNCE FRANCIS JOSEPH
Hungarians in New York Appeal to
American People.
NEW YORK. March 11. Five thousand
Hungarians attended a mass meeting to
day In the Grand Central Jb1hoi in r
test against the act of Emperor-King
josepn in aissoiving tne Hungarian Par
liament. Resolutions were adopted condemning
"the dastardly attempt of the crown and
its hirelings to deprive the Magyar people
of their constitutional rights and liber
ties." and calling upon the "great, free
and liberty-loving American Nation to
open its heart again to the people of Louis
Kossuth, as it did 54 years ago, and by Its
good will to aid tho Magyars in estab
lishing a government of the people."

SAN FRANCISCO. March IL-Onc man
was killed, one fatally wounded and an
other seriously hurt today by the collapse
., of the house of J. Riley at Twenty-fourth

story frame structure in an unfinished
condition. A high wind was blowing and
the house went down from the pressure.
Fred Chenlque, a plumber's 'helper, died
after being taken from the debris. John
Roach, a carpenter, sustained a fractured

electrician, was seriously Injured.
Tho Homely Girl on the Stage.
Harriet Quimby in Leslie's Weekly.
In the musical comedy, light opera and
extravaganza chorus, beauty in some de
gree W certainly a necessary qualifica
tion, but in the "legitimate" the -aaaa-gersand
the public demand talent. The
cemMaattoB of beauty aad talent is meet
desirable, but where there is only nc, let
beauty go. On the stage today, playing
in the "legitimate" there are only- one or
two successful women who can lay any
claim whatever to beauty. The biggest
drawing cards and the cleerest actresses,
by a great majority, are undeniably
homely. Grace! yes, to be sure, they
have grace, charm, magnetism, voice
anything and everything but looks. An
example substantiating this Is Sarah
Bernhardt, whose success cannot be chal
lenged, yet never by any chance has she
been called beautiful. Leslie Carter is
one of the homeliest women on the stage,
but her name is famous on two conti
nents. Olga Ncthersolc, Henrietta Cross
man, Mrs. Flskc. Margaret Anglin. and
so on. with half a dozen more, arc only
moderately good looking. Other successes
are of the winsome type, like Maude
Adams, but Maxine Elliot Is one of th
few women stars who are really bcautl
ful.

LONDON. March ll.-(Spocial.)-Thcrc
will be no rejoicing here over the marriage
of Princess Ena and King Alfonso. Ena
will receive no national wedding present.
Protestant sentiment in England is out
raged by her conversion to Catholicism.
An obscure Tlster Protestant member
of Parliament has Intimated he will op
pose in Commons any appropriation for a
special embassy to the wedding. It is
pointed out that Princess Helen of Or
leans was in love with the lato Duke of
Clarence, heir apparent to the British
throne, and he with her. but she abso
lutely refused to become a Protestant to
marry him.
Protestant Indignation at ihe conversion
finds no editorial vent in the press. The
British journalists arc absolutely Mlcnt,
evidently unable to excuse the conversion,
yet deeming it impolitic to express blame.
The burden of private censure centers
ujon King Edward, for sanctioning a. mar
riage of which this "conx-orslon" to order
was an essential precedent.
COERCED BY NEUTRAL POWERS
France Is Maklnjr Concessions on
Policing of Morocco.
LONDON. March 12. The correspondent
of the Daily Mail at Algeriras represents
France as being coorced by the neutral
powers into making concessions on the
police nuestion. probably as the result or
apprehension on the part of the powers
that failure ot the conference wouia
mean war.
The correspondent declares that for
France to enter Morocco as one of two
powers subject to the domination of a
third iowcr would be suicidal. It would
be better for France, he says, to sur
render all hep interests in Morocco rather
than to suffer such a loss of prestige.
ALGECIRAS. March 1L The commit
tee on redaction, having in charge the ad
justment of the remaining differences be
tween France and Germany over the Mo
roccan police question and the question
of the bank, assembled twice today. On
the bank question an agreement was
reached on every point except tho allot
ment to the capital, which will probably
be left to tho decision of the conference.
The police question was not touched
during the sittings today. The delegates.
however, went over the situation Infor
mally and a feeling of confidence reigns
among the representatives of the neutral
powers that a settlement of the, question
win ue reacnea witnin a wcck.

LOOKING TO BAILEY
Senators Expect Solution of
Railroad Rate Problem.
DIVISION IN BOTH PARTIES
Determination Is Expressed to Dis
pose of Tills BUI Before Any
Other Matter Is Taken Up
in Upper House.
WASHINGTON. March 1L The only
visible object on the horizon of the United
States Senate is the railroad rate bill.
This measure Is now on the calendar as
the unfinished business, which gives It
the right of way over every otner suojcci
each day after 2 o'clock.
Ordinarily bills like this, pertaining to
general legislation, give place to appro
priation bills, and doubtless the railroad
bill would be temporarily sidetracked for
them if a request to that effect should be
made, but unless the railroad bill remains
undisposed of longer than any one counts
upon, no effort will be mado to displace
it. even temporarily, with the supply bills.
for the Senate is a unit In Its desire to
have the matter disposed of at the earli
est practicable moment.
The only positive predictions that can
be made concerning the course of the bill
is that during the present week Senator
Tillman, who has it In charge, will make
a written report on It; that there will
be a. number of speeches for and against
the measure, and that the reports to
amend it will proceed.
There may be said to be three divisions
of the Senate, the first standing for the
Jblll as It came from the House, the sec
ond demanding a provision for a. review
of tho findings of the Interstate Com
merce Commission of a character that
will remove the entire question from the
commission, without leaving Its ruling In
force, and the third, granting a review
but maintaining the orders of the com
mission in effect until a final disposition
of the question Is reached in the courts.
These will be the vital questions from
the beginning to the end of the contro
versy. Indeed, It may be confidently as
serted that if an agreement could be ar
rived at Immediately upon the question
of review, a vote could be taken without
further discussion, except for home con
sumption. Until, however, there la an
approach to an understanding, an ani
mated If not acrimonious debate may be
expected.
There Is division on these points on the
Democratic as well as the Republican
side of the chamber, and it looks as If
most of the amendments to be suggested
would come from the minority members.
To Senator Bailey many of the Senators
in both parties arc looking for a solution
of tho problem by the amendment which
he Is understood to be preparing. He will
make an effort to frame a provision
which will grant a review by the courts
and at the same time prevent the sus
pension of the commission s orders until
the courts enter their final decrees In
given cases. This will not entirely meet
the demands of the more radical advo
cates of the Jurisdiction of the courts.
but some of them will accept IL
There Is an effort to reach an agree
ment on a provision that would require
the roads to deposit the difference be
tween their rates and those fixed by Ahv
commission, until the final disposition of
cases by the courts.
The discussion of the subject will com
mence with a speech toy Senator Culber
son tomorrow and will be continued by
Senator Simmons Tuesday and by Sena
tor Rayner Wednesday.
Senator Tillman is not contemplating a
set speech on the bill at an early day.
but will participate actively In the de
bate all the time. He will present his
formal written report on the bill during
the week. Senator Aldrich is among
those who will be late. It Is also under
stood that Senators Knox. Elklns, Teller.
Lodge and others are preparing to tako
part in the controversy.
The House of Representatives this week
will enter upon a protracted discussion of
ways and means to restrict the expendi
ture of appropriation for the support of
the legislative, executive and judicial
branches of the Government to the exact
and specific purposes for which they are
made. This discussion will be incident
to the consideration of the appropriation
bill for the branches, carrying J2t.13i.isi.
Chairman Tawney, of the appropriation
committee, estimates It will take ten days
to dispose of the bill. Its consideration
will begin Tuesday. Monday being the
District of Columbia day, with nine local
bills to be disposed of. Aside from the
main question of diversion of appro
priations, the bill carries a provision for
decreasing the pay of Government clerks
when they reach 63 years of age, and.
further, that after 1813 no clerk shall be
employed after he reaches the age of 70.
This provision, as well as those to pro
hibit the diversion of appropriations, is
subject to points of order. In case these
points are made, arrangements have been
completed which will result In the adop
tion oi a special rule making the pro
visions in order.
It Is expected long discussions will re
sult from the new policy proposed. The
Intention Is to keep the bill constantly
before the House untll.it is finally dis
posed or some time next week.
The statehood situation has again been
shifted to the Houso side of the Capitol
and while there Is a general understand
ing- that nothing is to be done until the

Bill AVill Pass Opening Remainder
ot South Half to Scttlcrf.
ORBGON'IAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, March 1L There is every reason to
believe that Congress will pass the bill
now pending before both houses authoriz
ing the opening to settlement of the un
allotted lands of the south half of the
tolvIlle Indian reservation. ln Eastern
Washington. A bill for this purpo.io was
pressed in the last Congress, but was han
dicapped by a provision that the Colvlllci!
should be paid $1,500,000 for land wldch
they had previously relinquished In the
north half of their reservation. The pend
ing bill does not contain this provision,
though a special bill has been Introduced
to pay this, claim. There is less prospect
of Its passage. The bill most likely to
pass provides for the survey of the lands,
and. when the survey Is completed, that
JO acres shall be allotted to each man.
woman and child. The remainder of the
" lands shall be classified under the dlrec
l Hon of the Secretary of the Interior as
irrigable lands, grazing lands, timber
lands, mineral lands or arid lands, and
the bill provides for their appraisal, with
the exception of the lands classed as min
eral lands, which need not be appraised.
" The timber lands arc to be disposed of by
the Secretary of the Interior under sealed
. bids to the highest bidder for cash or at
public auction, as the Secretary of the In
terior may determine. Mineral lands are
to be disposed of under the general pro
visions of the mining laws of, the United
States, but no mineral selection shall be
permitted upon any lands allotted in sev
eralty to the Indians, and the classifica
tion provided for in the bill Is to be con
sidered as only prima fade evidence of
the mineral or nonmlneral character of
the lands.
The other lands are to be disposed of
under the homestead laws at not less than
the appraised values, but it is provided
that the lands undisposed of at the expira
tion of five years from -the opening to
entry shall be sold to the highest bidder
for cash at net less than 51 per acre, under

also Is provided that a reasonable sum

Indians, and he may pay to them In cash
per capita such sum as in his opinion
will further tend to Improve their condi
tion and advance their progress, but not
otherwise. A provision also Ijj Inserted
under which any of the lands of this
reservation which may come under any
feasible Irrigation project under the rec
lamation act of June 17, 1S42. may be Irri- J

sary to carry out the provisions of the
act are to be repaid to the United States
out of the proceeds from the sale and
disposition of said land, and the only
ultimate expenses to the Government will
be the payment for the lands in sections
15 and 35.
A comparison of the agreement with
the provisions of this bill will show that
the bill in all material respects is in
accordance with the terms of the agree
ment. Tour committee believes that it
i is better to enact this legislation In this
form than to formally ratify the agree
ment, and especially In view of the fact
that the agreement embodies two dis
tinct propositions which should be con
sidered Independently of 'each other. The
lands in this reservation should be
opened. There arc nearly 1.500,000 acres
of land in the north central part of the
State of Washington, and this land is
not being utilized by any one except for
general grazing purposes. The Indians
farm but little, probably because the land
is held in common, and no Indian has any
particular tract that he can call his own.
for which reason there is no Incentive to
him to make Improvements.
It Is the universal testimony that the
Indians in the vacated parts of this res
ervation who took their allotments are
progressing and have progressed much
more rapidly than those who reside in
the unopened part of the reservatioB and
