FAITH IN CZAR GONE.
Thousands of Russians are Rising All
Over the Empire. ,
Chicago, III., June 80. Cabling
from St. Petersburg, the Chicago Daily
News' correspondent saya:
Nicholas has been decided in favor
of peace in the Far Kast on account of
the revolution in Poland. It haa been
arranged with the kaiser that in case
of i e volt in Poland, German troops will
occupy Warsaw, and that thus the cut
might continue to dispatch the Russian
garrieiona in Poland to the front.
The Poles, learning of this arrange
ment, made preparations to declare
their independence, with the support
of the Prussian Polish provinces of
Poeen and Silesia. This haa paralysed
to a certain extent the kaiser's Moroc
co scheme and compelled the csar
promptly to consent to President Roose
velt's proposals for peace. Count Po
tocki, the head of the famous Polish
house of that name, aaid to your corre
spondent today:
"ITnlesa immediate measures are
taken, Russia will shrink to ita former
dimensions, in Peter the Great's time.
The Nationalists, Socialists, Jews and
Rutheniana of Poland demand autono
my. They refuse to delay. The mo
ment ia favorable to their wishes. The
Hapsburg monarchy ia falling asunder.
Hungary is on the point of separating
from the dual empire. Herr Schnorer,
the Austrian-German spokemsan, bold
ly proclaims in the reichatag the alle
giance of hia party to the German em
peror. Russia has lost faith in the czar'a
promises and ia disgusted with the du
plicity of the bureaucracy. Every
where the people are rising. Blood
flowed freely yesterday in the streets of
Warsaw, Lodi, Kiev, Riga, Odessa,
Vilna and other centers.
A PATHETIC PLEA.
Judge Bennett Declarea Prosecution
of Mitchell To Be a Plot
Portland,' June 30. Another day
will send to the jury the case of Sena
tor Mitchell, who haa been on trial be
fore Judge De Haven in the United
States court. Yesterday morning when
court was convened Judge Bennett be
gan bis argument in behalf of the de
fense, a plea that was attractive in sen-
XL
The Late John Hay
timent, impressive in delievry, and
undoubtedly one of the greatest efforts
ever attempted by this well-known
lawyer.
For more than three and a halt hours
Judge Bennett held the closest atten
tion of all within hearing. When he
closed at 3 :35 a blur of tears dimmed
the eyes of the senator and many of his
closest friends were much affected.
The attorney's theme throughout was
that Senator Mitchell was not guilty
of any wrongdoing, and that the de
fendant was the victim of a plot en
gineered by some unnamed persons be
hind the prosecution. It was a plot
brought to a culmination by United
States District Attorney Heney, whose
chief aim in the prosecution, according
to Mr. Bennett, was the glory of having
convicted a United States senator.
Skilfully counsel for the defense turned
the construction that the prosecution
had placed upon the letters between
Senator Mitchell and his former law
partner, Judge Tanner He pictured
Tanner as a rat in a trap, who, when
once caught, was a willing tool in the
hands of Mr. Heney in order to save
his own son from prosecution.
Government Gives Up Cases.
Washington, June 30. Upon motion
of District Attorney Beach, the cases
against James T. Metcalf, Harry C.
Hallenbeck and Norma . Metcalf, in
dicted for conspiracy to defraud the

tract for money-order blanks, were

Mr. Beach announced that after a care
ful investigation of the evidence he
had decided to take no further steps
looking to the trial of these persons,
and asked that the indictments be dis
missed. "

John Hay Passes Away Very
Suddenly.
WAS THOUGHT TO BE IMPROVING
Mjs. Hay at Bedside of Statesman
Death Was Due to Pulmon
ary Embolism.
Newbury, New Hampshire, July 1.
Secretary of State John Hay died at
12:25 this morning. The signs imme
diately preceding hia death were those
of pulmonary unboliam.
Mr. Hay'a condition during all of
Friday had been entirely satisfactory.
The bulletin of Secretary Hay's death
was signed by Charles L. Scudder, M .
D., and Fred T. Murphy, M. I).
Mrs. Hay and Dra. Scudder and Mur
phy were at the secretary's bedside
when the end came. The secretary
bade good night to his wife and to his
attending physicians about 10 o'clock
last night, at the close of one of the
best daya he haa had since hia' illness.
The local trouble was clearing up satis
factorily, according to Dr. 8cudder.
The aecrteary suffered none of the old
panai in nla chest which characterised
hia earlier illness. He had been per
fectly comfortable all day and happy in
the anticipation of leaving his bed for
the greater freedom and comfort of a
couch. At 11 o'clock he was sleeping
quietly.
A few minutes after 12 o'clock he
called the nurse, who at once sum
moned Dr. Scudder. ltoth Dr. Scudder
and Dr. Murphy hastened to the bed
side. The sercctary was breathing
with difficulty, and expired aluioeat
immediately afterward at 12:25.
RUSSIAN OFFICIALS FRANTIC
Grave Fears That Army May Join In
Revolt of Navy.
St. Petersburg, July 1 . The Rassian
government, although it haa been al
most paralyzed by the terrible events
at Odessa and the news that the sailors
at Libsu have also mutinied, is making
desperate and even frantic efforts to
stamp out the flames of revolution be
fore they can spread to the army, which
ia now the last bulwark of the autoc
racy. With Poland red with the spirit of
revolt, the Caucasus already almost in
a state of civil war, agrarian disorders
spreading rapidly, the whole country
profoundly stirred and the intelligent
classes arrayed against the government,
all conditions seem ripe for the long
predicted revolution.
The first act of the government after
dispatching Admiral Kruger's squadron
from Sebastopol was to summon the
Kniaz Potemkine, whose mutineers
have now been joined by the crews of
the torpedo boats which accompanied
it to Odessa, to surrender, under the
threat of firing upon and sinking the
vessel. This was followed by the dec
laration of martial law at Odensa and
Libau and the clothing of the military
commanders with plenary powers.
The newly formed council for imper
ial defense met last night under the
presidency of Grand Duke Nicholas,
and was in session long after midnight.
Beyond the fact that the temper ot
the army was considered at length,
nothing is known as to what occurred
in the council or regarding the decis
ions at which it arrived.
Great fear is expressed that many
regiments are honeycombed with sedi
tion, and there ia grave doubt of their
loyalty should they be called upon to
fire on the revolutionists. Indeed the
most startling stories involving the un
reliability of the troops are being re
peated in St. Petersburg, but the truth
of many of them is more than questionable.
Fast Train Goes Into Ditch.
Cleveland, July 1. A faBt esatbound
passenger train on the Cleveland-Pittsburg
branch of the Pennsylvania road
was derailed and wrecked near Atwa
ter, O., today. At least one passenger
was killed, while a dozen others were
injured. The train ia one of the fastest
between Cleveland and Philadelphia,
making the run of 140 miles between
the two cities in three hours and 15
minutes. When the accident oc
curred, the train was probably running
50 miles an hour. A section crew was
repairing the track.
Stir Up Hawaiian Chinese.
Honolulu, July 1. A Chinese mass
meeting has been balled for tonight to
indorse the efforts being made in China
to effect a boycott of American goods,
on account of the operations of the ex
clusion laws.
