(By Associated Press.)
London, Nov. 12. A dispatch re
ceived from the semi-official Russian
news agency gives the text of reso
lution adopted last Friday by the
Workmen's and Soldiers' congress in
Petrograd, calling for peace, the
is should enter immediately into
Cegotiations for a democratic ana

' "The eovernment considers a peace

jtfl the belligerent countries, worn out
' nu ruined bv war tne peace wnicn
the Russian workmen called for on
the fall of the monarchy. It should
be an immediate peace, without an
nexation (that is to .say, without
usurpation of .foreign territory, and
without violent conquest of nationali
ties) and without indemnities.
Propose Immediate Peace.
"The Russian government proposes
to all belligerents to make this peace
immediately, declaring themselves
ready without delay to"carry out all
the conditions of this peace through
plenipotentiaries of all countries and
nations.
"By annexation or usurpation of
territory the government means in ac
cordance with the sense of justice, of
democracy in general and. of the
working classes in particular, any an
nexation to a great and powerful state
of a weak nationality without the
consent of that nationality and in
dependently of its degree of civilisa
tion and its geographical situation in
Europe or across the ocean.
"If any population be kept by force
under the control of any state and if
contrary to its will expressed in the
press or in national assembly, or to
decisions of parties, or in opposition
to rebellions and uprisings against
an oppressor, the population is re
fused the right of universal suffrage,
of driving out an army of occupation
and organizing its own political
regime, such a state of things is an
nexation of violent usurpation. The
government considers that the active
carrying on of the war in order to
'share weak nationalities which have
been conquered between rich and
powerful nations is a great crime
against humanity.
.jjjl Open to Suggestion.
Y "Accordingly, the government
solemnly proclaims its decision to
'sign peace terms which will bring this
war to an end on the conditions men
tioned above, which are equitable for
al! the nationalities."
The'proposal further says the fore
going must not bd considered final,
but that the government consentr to
exanjjna.intQ any pther peace terms
"only insisting that these terms be
set forth as speedily as possible by
some belligerent, and that the terms
be absolutely clear, without the
slightest ambiguity and without se
cret character."
14 members was also appointed.
That same afternoon the two councils
took possession of the government
building, and the reign -of Liliuokalani
' was at an end.
Republic Proclaimed.
On July 41894, the republic of
Hawaii was proclaimed, with Sanford
B. Dole as president.
On January 16, 1895, just two years
after being deposed, Liliuokalani was
arrested on the charge of being a par
ticipant in a plot to overturn the
existing government and resume her
sovereignty. Eight days later she
formally renounced all claim to the
,throne. After nine k months' confine
ment in her former .palace, she and
48 others were pardoned, and
when, on August 12, 1898, Hawaii be
came a territory of the United States,
she -declared her lealty to the country
that had adopted her.
The later years of her life Liliuoka
lani remained quietly at home. She
had ceased to reign as a sovereign
monarch, but she still . Teigned as
queen in the hearts of her people, the
native Hawaiians, who venerated her
and paid her court as though she still
sat upon the" throne. She was a com
poser of hundreds of Hawaiian soilgs,
some of which became popular in the
United States.
Lenine's Tenure Is Not ,
Secure, Stockholm Hears
Stockholm, Nov. 12. According to
reports received here, Petrograd con
tinues outwardly quiet, -but there are
indications that Nikolai Lenine's
enure is by no means secure. This
information has reached the Ameri
can minister, Ira Nelson Morris, from
competent sources. The propertied
classes, the greater number of gov
ernment employes and a considerable
number of the workingmen of the
bftter clSfs refuse to give "allegiance
to the Leninites. Minister Morris
ilso has been advised, that the Bol-
?heviki are in full control at.Helsing-
iors.
Honolulu, T. H., Nov. 12.-Queen
Liliuokalani of Hawaii, whose death
had been expected for several days,
passed away this morning.
The queen had heen in ill health
many months. A week ago she began
to fail rapidly and last Thursday
pltysicians announced that the end
was near. '
Preparations have oeen made for
the body to lie in state, with a terri
torial guard of -honor.
Social events planned forthe Uni
ted States congressional party visit
ing .ere probably will be called off.
Last Vestige of Royalty.
With-the death of Queen Xiliuoka-
; lani has passed the last vestige of
royalty in the Hawaiian Islands, ihe
eighth and last monarch to hold sway
over the insular group, she reigned for
only two years and that brief flicker
or sovereignty was extinguished more
than 20 years ago in a revolution
which led to the annexation oNthe
islands to the United States. BuH
notwithstanding her effacement from,
public affairs, Quen Liliuokalani nev
er abandoned her fegal pose nor lost
the affection of her former subjects,
and continued to net -death a, most
interesting personality.
She was born September 2, 1838. in
Honolulu. Her name was Lydia
Kamakacha. In her memoirs, "Ha
waii's History by , Hawaii's Queen,"
she traced her ancestry back to the
foundation of the Kamahameha dy
nasty and claimed relationship to the
royal family of the five sovereigns of
that name.
In accordance with a custom com
mon in Hawaii in those days, Liliuo
kalani was given away in her infancy
by her father to another chief, by
whom she was adopted in exchange
for one of Jiis children, this custom
being observed to cement ties be
tween the different clans and chiefs.
The future queen's new mother was
Konitr, granddaughter of Kamahame
ha I. Her adooted father was Paki. a
high chief. Thev had a daughter of
ineir own, cernice rauam, wno laier
became Mrs. Charles R. Bishop. Liliu
okalani's own parents'had nine other
children, most of whom, like herself,
were adopted into other families. One
of them was Kalakaua, afterwards
king and Liliuokalani's predecessor on
the throne.
Meets Future Husband.
The, young princess received her
education in the old Royal school, all
the pupils oftwhich were children of
the royal family or of the high chiefs.
It was while attending this school
that Liliuokalani first met the boy who
later became her husband, John O.
Dominis, son jf an American sea
captainr She was married- to him
September -16, 1862, and she and her
husband movfd to Washington Place
,which Captain Dominis, her father-in-law,
had built as a private residence.
Long after, when she had been driven
from the throne of Hawaii, she re
tired again to this place and -it was
her home during the remainder of her
life.
Liliuokalani ascended the throne o!
Hawaii January 29,' 1891, immediately
following the receipt of news from
San Francisco that her brother, King
Kalakaua, had died there in the Palace
hotel nine days previously.
In 1887 Liliuokalani visited foreign
countries. She went to London to
participate in the golden jubilee cele
bration of Queen Victoria. , It was al
ways afterwards her boast that she
was kissed and embraced by Britain's
queen. -
January 17 organization of a pro
visional government in Hawaii was
completed, with Sanford B. Dole at
its head as president of the executive
council and minister of foreign af
fairs, An advisory council of

the appeal, "be one single army.. Ev

SPIRITS CLASH
OVER PROPOSED
CITY ORDINANCE
Pastor of Spiritualist Church
Accuses Police Woman of
Selling Love Powders When
' Kugel Introduces Bill.
The spirits clashed before the city
council coimnittee of the whole meet
ing yesterday, when a regulatory
ordinance, prohibiting" the practice of
clairvoyance, palmistry, fortune tell
ing, trance or life reading for pay, was
recommended for passage.
Acting upon information brought to
him by special iuveshgators, Superin
tendent Kugel of the police, depart
ment introduced and championed this
measure, which is to eliminate the
charging of fees by tho persons the
measure affects. r
The ordinance will not interfere
with the operation of regularly es
tablished spiritualist churches whose
members may contribute in any man
ner they choose.
Impose'Upon Credulity.
Mr. Kugel explained he had evi
dence. that persons .alleged to have
been identified with spiritualist or
ganizations had been selling lave
powders, charms ajid amulets; also
imposing upon the'credulity of pa
trons whose fortunes were told.
Thomas Z. Magarrell, minister of
the First Spiritualist church at ,2726
South Tenth street, opposed the or
dinance, adding this statement:
"These women of our organization
ar legitimate and no higher standard
of morals is taught anywhere in
Omaha."
"Is it nOf a fact that you have a
private electric bath in your office and
that you give treatments to men and
women alike?" asked Mayor Dahlman
of Magarrell.
''Some women ask to be treated by
women," replied the minister of spir
itualism. Magarrell admitted that in some in
stances hedid administer electric
treatments to women himself, but
that was at the option of the patron.
Policewoman Accused.
The name of Kittie Cox, Superin
tendent Kugel's special-investigator,
was brought into the proceedings.
Mrs. Cox formerly was a fortune
teller and medium. Magarrell
charged that Mrs. Cox read both of
his palms for $2 and sold him an am
ulet. Attorney Randolph, represent
ing the spiritualists, read a statement
signed by Magarrell, charging that
Kittie Lox of 101 South 1 wenty-ninth
street had beert sellinar love nowrlers
and giving readings for pay since hefl
advent as special investigator in the
police department.
' Miss Julie Titcomb. president of the
Fontenelle Spiritualist church, 2414

ing the passage of the ordinance, not
withstanding that Dr. peorge War
ren of Chicago, president of the Na
tional Spiritualist association, came to
Omaha to oppose the ordinance. Miss
Titcomb stated, that EIJa Gardiner,
