AFfilRS AT S0DIH OMAHA Citj Offioili Contemplate Another Inna of Renewal Bond SAVING OF INTEREST TO BE EFFECTED tacees ( Laat Effort Eeoraes Belief Tber Cmm. Be Floated at Untr Rate aad Brlaff ,. at Pre ml em. .'" City officials are so well pleased with the ale of district improvement bonds and of renewal bonds at i per cent Interest that before long another lssue'of renewal bonds will be offered to bond buyers. Last week when the improvement bonds and the re newal bonds were sold a good alsed pre- mlura was obtained. Interest on the re newal bonds was decreased from to I per cent ( As this sale was so satisfactory and so many bids were offered the mayor and council are figuring now on going over a big batch of bonds that are drawing per cent Interest and ploklng out soms of the long-time issues to be renewed at ( per cent. While South Omaha has sold bonds as low as ihm Per cent, no premium was received. It Is agreed among the city offi cials that It will be far better to renew some of the long-time per cents for 6 per cent and secure a premium than to try to float renewals at a lower rate of In terest and be compelled to accept par and possibly pay fc commission on the side. The object of renewing these bunas Is, of course, to reduce the annual amount of Interest paid. It takes now about $40,000 each year tiess. By renewing bonds at 6 per cent and securing a premium the next Interest levy can be considerably reduced. This proposed new Issue will most likely be ready to offer to buyers shortly after November IS, and surety not later than December 1. Working- Road Machine. Troutan will start the city grading machine to work. The intention is to round up all of the unpaved streets In the city and ' place them in good condition before cold -weather sets in. This was tried last fall and the roads were found to be In such good condition In the spring that the early rains did tittle or no damage to the streets. Street repair expenses have' been lower this year than ever before and the streets have been kept In better shape. This is because the roads were so thoroughly re paired last fall that very few washouts occurred. Street repairing is now done unoer tne personal direction oi tne mayor iyd city engineer. ' Fox Badly Injured, While driving a coal wagon along Twen- ' ty-fourth street Saturday forenoon one of the front wheels df the wagon broke, throwing Peter Fox, thedrlver, from his Beat to ths pavement. Men who witnessed the accident earned F-ox to Dr. Bust's office across the Btreet where he lay un conscious for about ten minutes. An ex amination showed that Fox had sustained a bad cut over his right eye and was ! severely bruised, but no bones were broken. After having his wounds and bruises dressed Fox was able to go to his home at Twentyrsecond and U streets without as sistance. Part of Pavlnsr Completed. Saturday afternoon Contractor Ilannon ' completed the paving of Railroad avenue and South Twenty-fourth street on the west side from the Sarpy county line to ' Q street. This paved roadway Is now open ' to traffic with the exception of about 200 t feet where the concrete mixing machine and the railroad switches are located. On account of the heavy rain the ground was too " wet' yeet'erday lo' lay concrete bn the east side, but this work will be resumed on Monday.'

CZAR'S POLICE UNEARTI1 PLOT Terroritt Orimei of Last Three Tear Traced to Common Source. CONSPIRATORS UVE' IN SWITZERLAND Three Jewish Exiles, Gradaate of the School of Klhlllstn,' Raid to Be Directors of the Affair. POLICE RAID CRAP GAME 'Sixty Colored Men Rounded t'p and Taken to the Folic Station. There was a surprise In the Midway sa loon last night, for the police In force sur rounded the place and captured sixty prisoners who were deep In the "game o' craps." ...-. The police knew that gambling was going on at the place, but waited for a favorable opportunity to make the raid, and at one swoop captured the whole lot. Last night many of the colored population drew their pay for work done on the carnival grounds and after the manner of their kind were trying to double .It when Bergeant Hayes tepped In Some tried to run, but It was useless, for at every point of escape was stationed a policeman. All ware charged with gambling. ' All the prisoners took their hard luck with the good nature of their race and shortly after the lot were placed in the cells there started a concert the like of which the police station has not heard for many a long night The Circle Swing, 19th and Farnam. Admission with ride, 10c Children, to. October 10, 11,13 three day only. ST. PETERSBURG. Oct. . The Russian police are convinced that tne whole series of terrorist crimes beginning with the as sassination of Minister of Public Instruc tion Bogollepoff by Peter Karpolch on February 27, 1901, and Including the mur der of Ministers of the" Interior Slplaguena in April, 1902; the two attempts upon the life of M. PobledonatseS, procurator gen eral of the Holy synod; the shooting of Prince Obolenskl, while he was governor of Kharkoff, In 1902; the murder of Gov ernor Bogjanovftch of Ufa, In 1908; the working out of four other plot and finally the murder of M. Plehve last summer, are traceable to a common Inspiration. While some links In the chain of evidence are lacking a long Investigation has revealed the fact that the Inspiration for the revival of terrorist activity In Russia come chiefly from a band of revolutionists, mostly re cruited from exiles to Siberia, living on the shore of Lake Leman, Switzerland, where may possibly be located another "Execu tive committee" such as directed the bloody reign of nihilism, from 1878 to 1882. While there are some points of similarity between them, the two movement differ both ss to character and purpose. Nihi lism was essentially a domestic growth of revenge for the suppression by the au thorities and the transportation to Siberia kof the Utopian pupils of Nikolai Gavrilo- vich, Tohernyshovskll and Michael Baku nln, the early agitators who preached an ideal nihilistic, doctrine. The radical then entered upon an awful vendetta, waged first against the agents of absolute power and finally against the sovereign himself, and duel was proclaimed for the pur pose of securing a territorial congress, the nihilists declaring that only when a call was issued for such a congress would they disarm Conspiracy Organised Abroad. The present activity, however, was, ac cording to the police, organized abroad, and executed through the instrumentality of those enlisted in the cause of Russia. This "fighting organisation," as It Is termed, seems to be without a direct ob ject, but rather as supplemental to the work of the revolutionary propaganda which the agitators abroad are spreading among all classes of the population, the murders being Intended to stir up the dis contented portion of the populace. The revolutionary press abroad and the literature which it sends into Russia are charged with systematically preparing the way for crimes both here and in foreign countries by defaming the Russian public men selected as victims. The press cam paign abroad, it la pointed out, began In 1S98-1900 and the murders In 1901. With the capture of the revolutionary agent Ger schunln, the authorities are satisfied that they have laid hand upon the active agent in Russia of the foreign revolutionary agitators. The revelations at the trial of Gerschunln, which have not yet been made public. It is authoritatively stated, prove that three Jewish exiles, Gots, Roublno vlch end Gerschunln, who formed the edi torial staff of the Messenger of the Rus sian Revolutionists, were the leader of the "fighting organization." ' History of Aliened Plotters. The evidence,. It Is declared, show that Cor and Roubinovich are graduates of the nihilist school. Roubinovich! preached anarchy and terrorism publicly In Italy last winter. Gots ws exiled to Yakutsk, Siberia, In 1887 for conducting a secret printing press during his course- a a uni versity student.. During his term of exile he was Implicated In a plot of the convicts against the governor of the prison. In which a number of guards were killed. Even tually, however, upon the accession of Em peror Nicholas to the throne, clemency was extended to him and he was given his free dom In 1898. He Immediately left Russia and entered Into relations with - Roubino vich for the purpose of uniting the Russian revolutionary forces abroad. Gerschunln was formerly a pharmacist's assistant and several times as early as 1F98 was accused of complicity In revolutionary societies, and it Is actually believed that he may have fired the shot which killed Governor Bog- danovltch. The police are perfectly convinced thst Minister of the Interior Plehve fell a victim to this same organization, but they have not yet discovered the active agent In Russia who succeeded Gerschunln after the latter's arrest and conviction.

OMAHA SUBURBS Florence. fl f if Mi TTT III For Camp and Picnic Whether off for a vacation in camp, or on a day's picnic, a supply of good butter adds enjoyment to the outing. 4 Campers and picnickers know ho difficult it is to keep butter dean, and safe from dust and insects, as well as to protect it from the odor of other food. Meadow Cold Butter is a perfect butter for camp and picnic. First, because It b a, pure, wholesome and delicious product; and second, because it is sealed at I wc . creamery in airugnt pacicajjes which keep it fresh and clean until the last morsel is eaten.
