any Importance were reported Saturday,
and tranquillity, it la hoped by the
authorities, will prevail today.
In Moscow, where 20.000 men are etlil

ST. PETERSBURG. Jan. 29. There Is
much gossip about what is occurring at
Tsarskoc-Selo, but the one thins certain
is that the Emperor and his advisors have
not reached a decision regarding further
action. It is known, however, that a
project for the creation of a sort of
zemstvo body, with a limited membership
and along the lines of the Russian land
parliament, as a consultative body to His

been discussed.

ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 23. Governor
General Trepoff has announced to some
foreign correspondents that, if they con
tinue to send out false and misleading re

GETTING FULL OF VODKA.
Moscow Strikers Cause Alarm Their
Lot an Easy One.
MOSCOW. Jan. 2S. The situation here
tonight is sllghtlymorc threatening. The
men in the Industrial section are Indulg
ing in Saturday night sprees and have be
come turbulent. The disposition of the
troops makes serious trouble tomorrow
unlikely, but. If the men continue drink
ing, there undoubtedly will be disorders.
The authorities still hope to avoid blood
Khcd and do not apprehend any disorder.
They declare that an entire restoration of
order is certain. Nevertheless, it any in
clination is shown to disturb the peace.
they say, precautions already have been
taken to prevent it. The higher schools
have been closed until February 7 and
tiatrols are being continued.
The authorities are convinced that the
movement here was not occasioned by any
real grievances, but is merely the reflex
action of the St. Petersburg strike. They
say that in many cases the men walked
out of the factories under pressure, ask
ing employers to pardon them for so do
ing, and that they will not fall to resume
work shortly.
"Factor' hands here," sald a high offi
cial to the Associated Press, "enjoy bet
ter material conditions than in some
other countries, notably In Belgium. The
good relations between employers and
employes are shown In the absence of dis
orders In places where there were no
troops."

posted at Moscow, to the effect that Great
Britain was supplying money to tie up
the Russian arsenals and dock-yards for
the purpose of aiding her ally, Japan,
one newspaper says:
"This is no time for such practical
jokes," and another paper declares itself
stupefied that the telegram should have
been posted.

Russian Newspaper Calls for Reforms
Proposed by Zemstvoists.
ST. . PETERSBURG. Jan. 2S. All
the dallies, except two, appeared this
morning In their accustomed form. The

on the occurrences of Sunday and the
following days, and they do not print any
details beyond the official reports, hold
ing that, as they are not permitted to
print -the truth fully and freely, they "will
print nothing further.
The Rues, however, indulges in an. open
attack -on the censorship, which it de
flares to be Inadvisable and inimical to
the true Interests of Russia at such a
critical time, and appeals to the newspa
pers throughout the land to disregard It
end print the truth as they see IL
The paper serves plain notice un the
government that the recent events Indi
cate that all Russia is demanding reform
and that the proposals of the zemstvoists
voice the feeling of the Russian people.
The elements behind the movement for
the betterment of Russia, it adds, are
not pickpockets, criminals or agitators,
hut landed proprietors, the educated
.classes -and Intelligent labor. In the press,
the Russ continues, the Government has
an unbiased and conscientious adviser.
The rulers of Russia dare not close their
ears to all but one set of opinions. The
-Russ also prints a 13-column discussion
on the labor situation in Russia.
Several of the most sensational of the
foreign .newspaper correspondents are re
ported to have been summoned to head
quarters by Governor-General Trepoft and
called to account for the lurid accounts
of recent happenings which they had sent

St. Petersburg- arc beginning to arrive in
Berlin to await developments. Soma
Americas and Englishmen who are
obliged to remain there to attend to
business are sending their families here.

present half-calm is only a period of
preparations for greater resistance to the
government, and that active smuggling of
arms and dynamite Is going on across the
Austrian frontier. St. Petersburg society
shares the belief that - more serious
events and even a revolution are Im
pending. The wife of a leading American of St.
Petersburg who has arrived here relate3
how a Princess who was expressing the
most positive views concerning Governor
General Trepoff to a Countess was Inter
rupted with the remark:
"You talk like an anarchist."
"Are you not one?" replied the Princess.

absolutely reliable Information from
Moscow, turned over the telegram to a
Moscow newspaper, which declined to
print it. whereupon, by the Grand Duke's
direction, M. Roudneff placarded it in the
streets.
Grand Duke Serglus connection with
the matter Is believed to be greatly em
barrassing Foreign Minister Lamsdorff,
who Is anxious to avoid a diplomatic In
cident.
Sir Charles Hardlnge, the British Am
bassador, followed up his personal re
quest for an explanation, Thursday, with
a letter on the subject yesterday, when
the same charges in another form ap
peared in official papers here. Count

ter, although at the Foreign Office it is
alleged that official as well as unofficial

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful It Is
In Preserving Health and Beauty.
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
Is the safest and most efficient disinfect
ant purifier In Nature, but' few real
ize Its value when taken In to the human
system for the same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more you
take of it the better; It is not a drug at
all. but simply absorbs the gases and lm
purities always present In the stomach
and intestines and carries them out of
the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating onions
and otner oaorous vegeuioies.
Charcoal effectually clears and im
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the injurious gases which col
lect in the stomach and bowels; it disin
fects the mouth and threat from the pol
son of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form
or another, but probably the best char
coal and the most for tho money Is in
Stuat-s Charcoal Lozenges; they are
composed of the finest powdered willow
charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics
in tablet form, or rather In the form of
large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the char,
coal being mixed with honey.
The dally use of these lozenges will
soon tell In a much Improved condition
of the general health, better complexion,
sweeter breath and purer blood, and the
beauty of it is. that no possible harm can
result from their continued use. but on
the contrary, great neflt.
A Buffalo physician, iu speaking of the
benefits of -crcoal. says: "I advise Stu.
art's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients
suffering from gas in stomach and bow
els. and to clear the complexion and miri.
fy t-e breath, mouth and throat; I also
believe the liver Is -really benefited by
the daily use of them; they cost but 23
cents a box at drugstores, and although
in some sense a. patent preparation, yet
I believe I get more and better charcoal
in Stuarfs Charcoal Lozenges than In
any or we orainary charcoal tablets."
SHOWED GOOD FAITH
Senator Ankeny. Explains the
Stewart Affair.
FOSTER'S CHANGE OF FRONT
That Alone, He Shows President, Was
Cause of Misunderstanding
Piles Will Be Consulted and
Stewart Mot Confirmed.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Jan. 28. Senator Ankeny made bis
promised call at the White House . this
morning and talked over with the Presi
dent the Seattle postmastersblp and the
circumstances which yesterday threat
ened to place him In a bad light before the
Administration. He frankly outlined to
the President his position as given In
these dispatches yesterday, showing that,
in opposing Stewart's nomination, he had
acted in perfect good faith and in the In
terest and, as he understood, with tho
entire co-operation and approval ot his
colleague. While unwilling to discuss
what transpired at his Interview, Senator
Ankeny appeared perfectly satisfied with
the outcome, indicating that no mlsun
derstandlng existed "between the Presi
dent and himself, that the President had
a perfectly clear understanding of his at
titude and did not disapprove of his
course.
It Is understood that Ankeny made no
request for the withdrawal of the nom
ination of Stewart, but it Is also under
stood that there will be no action by tho
Senate on Stewart's nomination until after
Senator-elect Piles reaches Washington.
some time next month.
Technically speaking. Piles has no say
about this apolntment until after March
A, but the fact that be halls from Seattle
and will soon become a full-fledged Sena
tor gives his preferences weight, and It
Is believed that If Stewart is not con
firmed at this session because of Piles
opposition, the President will not be at
all disappointed. It looks as though Sen
ator Ankeny would prevent Stewart's con
firmation. In that event Representative
Humphrey will have nothing more to say
about the selection of the Seattle post
master and the choice will be left to the
new Senator.
As the smoke of yesterday's Incident
lifts. Senator Foster is shown to be in the
position of having first opposed Stewart's
nomination and then shifted and con
sented to his reappointment. It was ins
unfortunate method of shifting bis base
that came so near causing disaster for his
colleague, who had all along been looking
after his interests. Had he notified Sena
tor Ankeny ot his change of heart, so that
Ankeny could have acted accordingly, ha
would have spared the Junior Senator a
very bad night and considerable uneasl
ness.
