Pumping Problem for Irrigation Has
Not Been Solved.
Dynamite Is Found Hidden In
Imperial Palace.
SECRET POUCE WERE IN PLOT
Tw elve Mémberg Arrestad and Placed
in Dungeon— Chance Leads to
Discovery o f Explosive.
8t. Petersburg, A pril 6.— A t last the
terrorist« have succeeded in penetrating
the cordon of guards about the ctar
and in smuggling high explosives into
the pajace itself, and as a result there
is a feeling of apprehension among all
o f the high officials and the guards
about his majesty have been trebled
Late yesterday afternoon, as the
guard at the palace was being changed
Lieutenant Colonel Shiraupaky, who
was in command, noticed that one of
the Cossacks who had been posted at
the main door was wearing the sword
of an infantry officer, and not the sabre
o f a Cossack. H e thereupon called a
corporal and placed the man under ar­
rest. He was at once searched and in­
criminating documents were found on
. his person.
Search o f the palace revealed two
packages of dynamite, placed against
the main door of the imperial suite, in
a dark corner where they were not
likely to be noticed.
A searching inquiry was at once in­
stituted, with the result that 12 secret
police agents were arrested as accom­
plice, and all were hurried to the Peter
and Paul fortress, where they were
interviewed by General Trepoff.
* The fact that the terrorists have suc­
ceeded in corrupting members of tbe
secret police and soldiers has caused
much alarm, and another attempt
against a high official is looked for.
P R IC E PAID FOR C A T T L E .
N ext Question fo r Consideration Be­
fo re B eef Trust Grand Jury.
Chicago, A pril 6. — Prices paid for
livestock by the packers, alleged re­
bates granted the packers by the rail­
roads for handling the same and the
private accounts of some of the packing
concerns are to be closely inquired into
within the next few days by the Feder­
al grand jury which is investigating
— the business affairs of the beef trust.
Another phase of the question of the al­
leged combination of some o f the pack­
ers in violation of the Sherman anti­
trust law and Judge Groeecup's injunc­
tion which is to be inquired into is the
price paid by wholesale dealers to the
packers for meats.
Witnesses who can give the jurors
detailed and accurate information along
qkheqe lines have been subpoenaed and
appeared at the investigation today.
8orae o f these witnesses testified and,
although they refused to make public
wbat they told the jury, it is said a
large amount of data valuable to the
government was secured from them.
" More complaints of interference with
the witnesses reached United States
Attorney Bethea and Captain Porter, of
the secret service, during the day. The
session today was devoted to the exam­
ination of men employed at the Chi­
cago stockyards and packing houses.
W ith the exception of the Sunday
adjournments, the jury, it is said, w ill
now proceed steadily to the end of^the
inquiry. The United 8tates attorney
has announced that May 15 w ill prob­
ably see the close.
I t is said the hearing of the plea and
demurrer of Thomas J. Connors, the
indicted superintendent of the Armour
company, w ill be disposed of before
the jury presents other true bills in­
volving persons on charges of tamper­
ing with witnesses.
* Washington, A p ril 7.— The attention
of the director of the geological ear-
vey has been called to tbe fact that a
misapprehension exists on the part of |
certain citisene of Idaho as to the plane
o f the reclamation fervici) in regard to _
some important details relating to the
Minidoka project.
Ifcia misunder­
standing has arisen, it is believed, by
reason of the efforts of many settlers to
anticipate the plana of the engineers
and secure choice holdings of land.
The government from the first has
warned intending settlers to go slow in
making entries on the lands embraced
in this project, and has called particu
lar attention to the fact that the plans
for irrigation, especialTy those involv
ing tbe pumping plant, were merely
tentative, and could not be worked out
as quickly as those for tbe gravity sys­
tem. W hile nothing has arisen to pre­
vent tbe ultimate development of
pumping plant, so many delicate en­
gineering features are involved that
careful consideration must be given to
these before any definite conclusions
are reached or the finaf plans are ap­
proved. '
Thus, apparently, while no reason
exists for believing that the pumping
features of the Minidoka project w ill
not ultim ately be utilised, tbe engineers
very wisely have concluded to give this
question more study and consideration
before recommending it for construc­
tion.

E l Paso, Tex., A p ril 6.— John St.
Clair, a w ell known prospector, whose
statements are considered reliable, has
returned from the Yaqni country near
Urea, Sonora, and reports that the In ­
dians are still on the warpath. He
says tbat Malpuche, the old chief, is
at the bead of a band of over 50 and is
devastating the whole country, mur­
dering, pillaging and bunting. Grain
and cotton ranches are being abandoned
and the people are going into the towns
for protection.
The whole country is in a state of
panic. Mail routes between the small
towns have been abandoned and pro­
visions are getting scarce. Although
the country is overrun with soldiers,
he says, the Indians are fearless and
continue their depredations. St. Clair
does not believe it is safe for Americans
to go into the Yaqui country at this
time, as the Yaquis are very hostile to
Americans.
W hile going from Ures to his camp
in the mountains, St. Clair heard firing
and ran into what had been an Indian
ambascade. He found two dead Mex­
icans who had been killed only a few
minutes before he reached the place.
Tbe Yaquis are armed with rifles and
are well supplied with cartridges, St.
Clair says.

the particulars filter in from the outly­
ing districts, it is being revealed that
the casualties caused by the earthquake
of two days ago have been under, rather
than over-estimated. In one spot alone
at Dhamala, it is reported that fully
1,400 natives have been killed or in-
jnred. Of the injured many w ill die.
8even of the Europeans previously re­
ported hurt have since died, and two
others are in a dying condition.
There is not a house left in the vicin­
ity that does not show evidence of the
trembling of the earth.
This is the report from one district
alone, and as authentic information
comes in it seems certain that the mag­
nitude of the disaster w ill be sufficient
to stir the entire world when fully re­
vealed .
