Nicholas Convenes Ministers to Consider
Troubled State of Affairs.
WILL REVISE UNIVERSITY STATUTE
Decide to Roniovo Some Pressure From
Recalcitrant Students More Demon-
HtraflotiB Are Expected Outbursts nt
Bt. Petersburg.
ST. PETERSBURG , March 25. The
political situation is so serious that
Emperor Nicholas held a meeting of
the ministers yesterday to consider
the state of public affairs. Threaten
ing letters have been received by Lieu
tenant General Kouropatkin , minister
of war ; M. N. V. Muravieff , minister
of justice , and M. Zipyagin , minister
of the interior.
The czar presided at the council ,
which was convened at the Tsarskoe-
Sele palace. It was decided not to
abolish the law for drafting recalci
trant students into the army , but for
the present to refrain from applying
the law. It was also resolved to revise
the university statute. The decision
of the council of ministers is regarded
as a step in the right direction , be
cause it is an attempt at a partial
remedy of the grievances of the stu
dents.
Renewed demonstrations on a great
scale are expected tomorrow. It is
reported that Prince Viazemsky has
been disgraced for petitioning the czar
to consider the grievances of the stu
dents. Lagowsky , the provincial of
ficial , who last Friday attempted to
assassinate Privy Councillor Pobe-
donostzeff , procurator general of the
Holy Synod , is a disciple of Count
Leo Tolstoi , and he has asserted that
the act was one of revenge for the
excommunication of Tolstoi.
According to a special dispatch to
the Rossia , the governor general of
Kieff , General Gragomieroff , has pub
lished a riot ordinance similar to that
published by General Kleigels in St.
Petersburg and declaring that the
military will be called out unless t.ic
ordinance is strictly obeyed.
The day passed quietly in St. Peters
burg , Some 40,000 persons promenad
ed about neon along the Nevskoi pros-
pekt , particularly in front of the ca
thedral of our Lady of Kazan. The
crowd dwindled to normal proportions
when it became apparent that noth
ing would happen. The promenaders
were for the greater part curiosity
seekers.
NORTHERN PACIFIC WANTS IT.
I Negotiating for the Southern Pacific * ! *
Line From Portland.
MINNEAPOLIS , March 25. A spe
cial to the Times from Tacoma , Wash. ,
says :
It is currently reported here and is
generally believed in railroad circles ,
that the Northern Pacific is negotiat
ing for the purchase of the Southern
Pacific line from Portland to San
Francisco. It is said the purchase of
ttat portion of the line within the
state of Oregon is assured. It is
known that a representative of the
Northern Pacific has been over the
entire line within a few days on a
tour of inspection and much depends
on the report he will make to the
board of directors. Negotiations have
been hanging fire for more than a
year and the matter has been kept
very quiet.
Uuy Home for Schley b'ooii.
WASHINGTON , March 25. At a
meeting of the committee appointed
at a mass meeting of the citizens of
Washington for the purpose of pre
senting Admiral Schley with a modest
home , held in this city tonight , it was
reported that about $6,000 had been
contributed to the fund. It is expect
ed that by April 15 $15,000 will have
been raised , and this will be used to
purchase a home in the suburbs oE
Washington.
Kidnapers and Dynamiter" .
NASHVILLE , March 25. "Kidnap
ers and dynamiters" is the signature-
to a letter received by Joseph Schnei
der of this city Friday. The contents
Informed Mr. Schneider that unless ho
placed $300 at a certain spot in Cum
berland park by Saturday afternoon
one of his children would be kidnaped
or his house blown up by dynamite.
No harm has yet come to the Schnei
der home.
Discrimination on 1'Iour.
WASHINGTON , March 25. The dis
patch of Minister Hart at Bogota , say
ing that Colombia had imposed dis
criminating duties upon flour and
other articles , is not clear to the Statn
department , nor to the Colombian
minister here , as it is net known
whether the discrimination is favor
able or unfavorable to the United
States. The Colombian minister , Dr.
Silva , thinks there has been a reduc
tion.
THE CUBANS WILL ACQUIESCE.
Contend in Havana that Amendment
TVIll be Accepted.
HAVANA , March 25. The action of
the republican party in Santiago in
endorsing the Platt amendment and
Instructing Scnors Gomez and Ferrier
of the Santiago delegation to the con
stitutional convention to vote for the
amendment , to gether with the letters
of General Sanguilly and the mayor of
Cienfuegos , advising acceptance , were
incidents of the week just passed that
have tended to clear up the political
atmosphere , until now there are few
who do not expect the convention to
approve the amendment.
The visit of American congressmen
has had an excellent effect , as in no
instance have the radicals received
any encouragement in the notion that
if action is Jlayed until the next con-
if action is delayed until the next con-
demands of'the United States. The
radicals insist that some concession ,
no matter how insignificant , may pro
vide a sufficient excuse.
Already the radicals are taking
their cue from the conservatives and
pointing out that commercial inter
ests demand recognition. There is a
possibility of uniting the convention
along this line. The platform of the
conservatives calls for a reduction of
American import duties on tobacco
and sugar and approves any scheme
of relations which the United States
government sees fit to impose. In
fact the situation is leading to a
point where commercial interests will
be the chief question under discus
sion at the next session of the con
vention , and it is not unlikely that
a resolution will be adopted asking
for a reciprocity treaty.
COREA'S ACTION IS PROTESTED.
British Government Doesn't Appro * e of
the Diiinihsul.
YOKOHAMA , March 25. Advices
from Seoul announce that the Corean
government has dismissed from office
Sir. McLeavy Brown , director general
of Corean customs , and that Great
Britain is protesting against his dis
missal.
LONDON , March 25 The dismissal
of Mr. McLeavy Brown from the post
of director general of Corean customs
is regarded in London as another
score for Russia. In 1895 , and again
in 1898 , Russian pressure was exerted
to secure his removal. In the latter
case he was only reinstated after a
British , squadron had moved to Che
mulpo. As recently as a few months
ago Russia strongly opposed an at
tempt by Mr. Brown to raise money
for the Corean government to pur
chase shares in the railway from Seoul
to Fusan. As a result the negotiation
foi the loan failed.
JAPAN MAKES PREPARATION.
Orders Squadrons to Corea and Coiixeucs
Fort CommntiderK.
LONDON , March 25. "A Japanese
squadron , Admiral Tsubhim com
manding , left Nagasaki Saturday for
Corea , " says the Yokohama corre
spondent of the Daily Mail.
"The general opinion here is that
the situation is serious. Urgent in-
1 structions have been issued by the
minister of war , General Katsoura , to
the commanders of forts to attend a
conference in Tokio to consider ques
tions of home defense.
"The war rumors are causing a fall
in prices on the various bourses. The
feeling of the country is uneasy and
intensely anti-Russian , but the cabi
net shows no indication of its policy. "

unconsciously , until the train came
along , when he aroused a little and in
trying to get out of the road became
so dizzy that he went the wrong way.

and had just reached up on a shelf to
get the account book when he dropped
dead.

THE LIVE STOCK MARKET.
Latest Quotations from Soutli Onamh *
and Kiuiftaa City.
SOUTH OMAHA.
Union Stock aYrds Cattle There was a.
light run of cattle and , the demand being
of liberal proportions , prices were strong
er all around. The market lias been in
good shape all the week and It Is safe
to call prices on the better grades fully
13c higher for the week. The commoner
grades have also Improved somewhat , but
not quite as much as the choicer cattle.
Everything In the yards today was sold
In good season. The cow market was
also active and higher. There were only
about 15 cars offered and they were picked
up In a hurry * . For the week the market
can safely be quoted 13c to a quarter
higher. The greatest advance has been
on the choice cows and heifers , but the
medium kinds have Improved easily 13c.
Light and handy weight bulls were In
good request at good , strong prices. There
were very few feeders offered but , the de
mand being In fair shape , it did not take
long to clear the yards of all desirable
stock cattle of all weights.
Hogs There was a light run of hogs
and the market opened a big dime higher
than yesterday. The bulk of the hogs
sold at $5.SO and $3.S2V . with the choice
heavyweights selling mostly at 5.1.S5 , and
a top of $3.S7Vi. At those prices the mar
ket was fairly active , and , the receipts
being light , it did not take long for the
bulk to change hands. The lightweights
were very hard to dispose of as packers
would hardly bid on them at all. They
finally sold , however , from $5.77 > X : down.
The last half of the market was good
and strong , which made the long string
of hogs sell at & .S2&

A Help for Frnlt Growers.
Anything that will save the orchards
from ravages of insects and give to
growers of fruit satisfactory results
for their labor and expense is deserv
ing of investigation and ; trial. Realiz
ing the importance of any method or
device to this end , a representative of
this paper has been looking into the
claims of the Haseltine Moth Catcher
that does away with all expensive
spraying outfits with their poisonous
solutions , which have frequently de
stroyed valuable live stock. The cost
of operating the Moth Catcher is only
one-sixth the cost of spraying. The
well known fascination of a light for
moths of all kinds is utilized by the in
ventor , S. A. Haseltine , to clear the -v
orchards and gardens of insect pests
in the most effectual way by catching
the moths before eggs are laid , so
there are no worms hatched to destroy
fruit or vegetables , or to breed more-
pests for another year. The Moth
Catcher is made by placing two pol
ished reflectors at right angles , with
a torch in the center. The whole is
then placed over a pan or tub partly
4illed with water on which floats a
little kerosene oil. The torch is lit
at or about sundown and the light , t
multiplied many times by the reflect
ors , attracts the moths. They strike
the reflectors and fall into the coal
oil , which kills tnem instantly.
A recent visit was made to the or
chards of Central Missouri and invest
igation made furnished conclusive evi
dence of the utility of the Moth Catch
er. Four orchards were experimented
with in one locality. No. 1 was apart
and at a distance from any other or
chard. No. 3 lay between and imme
diately adjacent to Nos. 2 and 4. Nos.
1 and 3 were protected by Moth Catch
ers and were not sprayed , while Nos.
2 and 4 were thoroughly and repeat
edly sprayed , but were not protected
by traps. The fruit in Nos. 2 and 4
showed ( at packing time ) sixty per
cent damaged. In No. 3 only fifteen
per cent was damaged , and even this
small per cent is shown to be caused
from the proximity of the other or
chards that were not "trap-protected , "
because the fruit in No. 1 was perfect ,
there being scarcely any damaged
specimens in the entire orchard.
Wormy apples were placed in closed
glass jars with a little earth , and
when the coddling moths were hatched ,
they were found to be the same kind
as those taken from the Moth Catchers
in the orchards and at the apple
houses , where the coddling moths were
hatched in large numbers among the
old apple barrels and boxes.
The cheap , safe and reliable "trap"
will prove a boon to all orchardists
from Maine to California , and will
make profitable a pleasant occupation
that has hitherto been remunerative-
to a less degree than it deserved. The
cost is only $1.00 for the protection of
an acre , and the improved quality of
fruit on a single tree would amply re
pay the cost.
The Central Farmer of Omaha , Neb. ,
has been made general agent for sale
of the device and through descriptive-
circulars and otherwise will make
known its merits on application
by mall. The utmost success will
be hoped for , as anything that
will preserve the fruit trees and their
; product will tend to enrichment of
the country and the happiness and
health of its people. 20th Century
