The Dalles Gioaf Faetpty FIRST STEEET - St. Peteks'burg,' Dec. 2. Advices from Samara state that the peasantry, driven to desperation by the extortions of the'koolaks," as the native usurers are called, have killed a number of them, and robbed their dwellings of the money and valuables wrung from the starving country people.' In one Samara; village a "koolak,". noted for his grasping dis position, had come into possession, since the beginning of the famine, of nearly all of. the jewelry worn as heirlooms by the wpmen of -the neighborhood. His ifek was spared on surrendering the pledges. - The "koolaks" are known to be in many cases in collusion with the officers,-w ho aid them in extorting their exorbitant intereet. ' One effect of, the famine,"' however, has been to ' make these peasants reckless of the profound respect which authority in Russia has heretofore commanded, and several. ot the local officials' are among the victims of the recent outbreaks. . Three Families After His Money. Sacramento, Dec. 2. Thirty-one years ago Joel ti. , uarter married in England. After the birth of bis two children he came to America and estab lished himself in Akron. Ohio, .' He prospered and for a time corresponded with his family, . but finally moved to Peoria, HI.,, where he was known as Cramer. In 1870 he married again and had two children by his second wife A younger woman fell in bis way, so that he in turn deserted bis later wife, and came here with his new flame, bringing with him $50,000 in greenbacks. The second wife obtained a divorce from him. He left her and his children in possession of property valued at $100,000 As soon as the divorce from him was secured he commenced proceedings against the English wife, who had ad vertised for information, concerning him. A marked copy of the paper con taining the history of the divorce had heen sent her. She obiected to the di vorce, saying be had deserted . her. This turn of affairs worried him so he took sick and died. The three families are - now claimants of his estate. Joel R. Carter, jr., a son by his first wife, is here. An -amicable settle ment is possible, as there is enough for all. He was exceedingly successful in all his business ventures. The Kaiser's Latest Fad. . Behlik, Dec. 2. The kaiser, it is ru mored, has seriously spoken of submit tins himself to medical examination as to his sanity in order to offer a concla sive refutation to the critics in' France and England who have been throwing out hints reflecting upon it. Should the kaiser conclude to take the step, the leading experts would be, invited from England, and perhaps from Italy and Sweden, who would make thorough ex amination and a complete report upon the cerebral condition of the illustrious patient.' Whatever may be the founda tion for the rumors, it is certain that the kaiser's mental condition is a sub ject of general discussion, or rather in sinuationB, and it is believed that the current gossip, cannot bave failed in some form to reach the kaiser's ears, A Russian Scheme. Washington, D. C.. Dec. 3. Consul General Crawford, at St. Petersburg has transmitted to the department, the late reports upon the details and workings of a system now in practice in. Russia, re sembling certain plans incorporated in the platform of the farmers' alliance of this country of making advances on the farmer's grain, stored in warehouses or delivered to the officials of the railroad companies. The consul general says: 'This scheme which went into effect in June of 1883, and at the present day is generally adopted throughout the coun try, and business is carried on under it on a very large scale. The scheme gives satisfaction to the farmers." Is Probably not True. London, Dec. 2.
