FAMINE IN RUSSIA.
Government ReKel li Necessary la F1vt .Hor
Sofftrlnj Dotrkts.
St. Petersburg; Oft. 22. Aeting
under additional information from
the coventor of the province of Sa
mart, the minister of the interior has
orrV-iallr proclaimed famiae cemdi
tkm in iiv more district in this
j ravine. This means that the bad
harvest has already made itself so
keenly felt that a special medical and
relief ornnisation is deemed neces
sary for that districts. It i likely
that the Ikt will le added to from
time to time daring the winter. ;
The minister also publkbed today a
detailed report aWxit the relief riven
to seven Mfeerian districts, rorty
thoneand rouble were aseisraed. The
preheat indication are that ' little in
formation about the famine will be
published in Russian papers which k
not riven out by the minister of the
interior. The papers have been given
to understand that incorrect informa
tion or "colored" articles about the
famine will not be tolerated, and the
Rasskn editors know when they have
been spoken to. The bad harvest in
rortkms of Siberia last rear and this
year has bad the effect of turning a j
part of the tide of Siberian emigre
tion back toward Ruwia. According
to an official tource, i,74o emigrants
and 519,721 men whom the peasant
communes seat to spy oat the land
went to Siberia between January 1
and September IT, and 19.7SS emi
grants and 12.G19 envoys returned.
In addition to famine a circum
stance that deters emigration and
occasions the return of many is the
exhaustion of available farm land. !
It is a fact that is not sufficiently nn
derstood abroad that portions of Si-
bene are alreadv fullv occupied.
This is true of nearly all good and
conveniently accessible agricultural
land in West Siberia. Recent settlers
have been assigned lands distant frum
the railroad or navigable rivers, or
have received forest and marsh lands
which it would not rwv tbem to till
under present conditions. With
additional railways, with new markets
tor est Siberian grain in the hast
Siberian, Mongolian and Manchurian
mining regions, and with better
modes nf cultivating the ground there
will be room lor more settlers in est

there is little room for peasants there

Head, for reporting to . the teoal

for this station are made on estimates
based on conditions which existed a
couple of years ago. I Hit it was found
that the plant could not be construct
ed and placed in condition for nse
within the amount of the appropria
tion made by congrees for the pur
pose on account of the advance in the
price of the materials to be used.
Since then the plans have been
modified consideraldy in the hope
that the worK could be done for the
original price fixed. It k difficult
for the government architects at
Washington to accurately figure on
the ooft of const rue ion. under the con
