WARSAW, March 26.-A bomb was
thrown Into he carriage of Baron von
Nolken, chief of police of Warsaw, at 8
o'clock thla evening. ' , - .
' According to latest information' "the at
tack on Baron von Nollf.en was the result
f ah- ebHre'CoWfllraJ: of 'trta revdlu
tlonaiy party. Shortly before 8 o'clock to
night an elegantly drisied man went to
the police station at Praga, a, large suburb
of Warsaw, on the oL.er slde'joL the. Vis
tula, and threw a bomb Into the court yard
of h,at!Rtkpt wounding 'geverar persjons,
. two of them dangerously. The man started
'to run away but was' caught by the captain
of tbe station. He waa found to be a Jew
but bis Identity has not yet been discov
ered. A telephone message waa Immedi
ately sent to Baron von Nolken at the city
hall Informing him of the outrage. Baton
Von Nolken, accompanied- by a policeman,
took-a carriage and Immediately started for
Praga. Passing the palace where the gov
ernor general resides, a man standing on
the pavement threw a bomb at the carriage.

A girt' who was passing the spot when
the bomb was thrown was wounded by

According to the theory of the police the
revolutionist calculated on Baron von Nol
ken going to Praga on learning of the ex
plosion of the bomb at the station there
and. khow he must pass the castle, that
being tho - only road by which he could
reach the only bridge across the Vistula.
The affair caused great excitement. A
popular rumor says the revolutionaries
adopted thla course of informing the police
that they- have more bombs besides those
discovered In the Powonskl cemetery Satur
day. ... ... . , ,
Baron yon Nolken la very unpopular. He
ia hated by the 'masses of the Polish pop
ulation, who hold him responsible for the
sanguinary suppression of the disturbances
here tit the end of January. He has been
hero only a year, coming from St. Peters
burg, where he wan chief of the mounted
division of the police.-

MEXICO OOFS OX A GOLD BASIS
Mints Close to Free Coinage of Silver
April 16.
CITY OF MEXICO, March 26.-PreSident
Dlai has Isued .a decree for the reform of
the monetary system authorized by Con
gress December last. The decree estab
lishes the "peso," or silver dollar, at' a,
valje, of (0 cents, gold and the theoretical
unlf of the Mexican currency Is defined
to be the dollar, 'or "peso"' of centigrammes
of gold. An important feature in the de
cree is a- provision for a reserve exchange
fund, which at first will consist of $10,
000,000 or $15,000,000, and may be increased.
The original plan did not provide for the
immediate establishment of this fund, but
it is now deemed wise to start with one
simultaneously with the' beginning of the
new monetary system.
The mint will be closed April 16 to the
free coinage of sliver and the new mone
tary system will go Into effect May I.
The publication of the decree gives great
satisfaction. It assures a continuance of
staole exchange and assures business men
against losses In importing.

CAIRO. Egypt. March 26. (Special Ca
blegram to The Eee.V It Is highly proba
ble, says a correspondent, that the powers
will agree to the demand made by the
Egyptian government, thut English should
be admitted- among the judicial langungoa
of Egypt. He adds that the prestige of
tho English name readers it an imperious
necessity that the English language should
not be treated in Egypt with the same
Indifference as the Spanish and Swedish
languages. It is consequently natural and
necessary that It should be Included among
the number of Judicial languages.
The French government wllj, he says, not
fall to realise the force of this argument,
and everything tends to show that they
will not be the last to give their adhesion
to the proposed reform, all the more so
aa it is easy for them to be generous, for
it will not endanger French Interests In
Egypt.

PULPIT PRAISES THE COURT
Rector at North Platte Comments on the
Cody Divorce Case.
DECISION IS A TRIUMPH FOR THE HOME
Sermon Delivered In C'harch Which
Contains Memorial Window for
the Deceased Children of
the t'onple.
NORTH PLATTE. Neb., March 28. 8pe
clal.) In the beautiful Episcopal church
at North Platte, the walls of which are
adorned with splendid memorial glass In
memory of the little children of Colonel and
Mrs. W. F. Cody, at the cIobb his sermon
this morning, tho rector of the church,
Rev. John Gray, took occasion to ray that
he could not refrain from alluding to the
result of the unfortunate trouble in that
family which has recently been' pending
In the courts. "No more refreshing breeze
of civic righteousness and Judicial Integ
rity has blown across these wide-spread
ing plains In many a day than the do
clslon of Judge Scott in the unfortunate
case of thoso family troubles so we'.l
known in this community. This decision
Is not a triumph for the defendant alone.
She can reap but comparatively little prac
tical advantage from It, but she has won
for tho state and for the city of North
Platte, through Judicial uprightness, a
splendid moral triumph. The pulpit has
a rlaht to rejoice In that triumph and to
publish Its approbation and satisfaction to
the world. Tho splendid picture of wifely
devotion which Judge Scott drew In his
denial of tho motion for divorce ought to
be framed and hung In tha chambers of
all our homes In this great west. The
careless, licentious and sensual attitude of
too many persons in many of our com
munities has been held up to execration
and shame. It Is quite tlmo that such an
exhibition of moral righteousness should
be portrayed before tho public gao here
abouts. There is great comfort, too, in
the righteous Joy which Is felt In this
community among all the sons and daugh
ters of high-minded virtue at this result.
"I congratulate the distinguished cltl
sens of this community who belong to
this parish upon the opportunity which
was presented lham to testify in the lan
guage of sober and solemn truth In be
half of wifely fidelity and marital faith
fulness. They have honored themselves In
the sacred cause of the defense of Injured
Innocence and their reward Is with God.
The pulpit Is not concerned with the plain
tiff or defendant In this case as parties
to the Issue In question either to con
demn the one or exculpate the other, but
It Is concerned wlUi a mighty and pro
found Interest In the principles therein In
volved. The pulpit sends back a resound
ing 'Amen' to the Judgment of the 'right
eous Judge.' It pledges Itself anew to
teach the rising generation on these
boundless plains cleanness of heart and
hand and the sanctity of the Irrevocable,
holy and indissoluble relation of the mar
riage convenant."

GENERAL KOI ROPATKIN MISTAKEN
Thonght Russia Conld Whip Japan
lint Feared Enropc.
ST. PETERSBURG, March 27. Prince
Vktomsky's new paper, Dawn, has un
earthed a remarkable report made by Gen
eral K,ouropatkin to Emperor Nicholas In
which the then war minister expressed the
opinion that the Yalu concession waa sure
to Induce war in the-far east and took an
optimistic view of Russia's ability to cope
with Japan on land and sea, but expressed
forebodings that the triple alliance might
take advantage of the struggle to threaten
Russia In the west while Great Britain
brought matters to a climax with the Af
ghans. The whole tenor of the memoran
dum Indicates that danger on the European
frontier loomed large in the war minister's
calculations and creates the presumption
that he was chary about despatching heavy
reinforcements to the front until Emperor
William's assurances, given at the "billiard
game" conference, removed the threat as to
the western frontier.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 27. A private

here from an officer of Vice Admiral Ro-
Jestvensky's squadron. The writer de
scribes the activity of the ships In target
practice and maneuvering. Life aboard the
ships, the writer says, was very uncom
fortable, owing to the immense quantities
of coal stored on the upper deck In all the
free spaces and owing to the heat, which
was inducing various tropical diseases.
Every ono was anxious to depart to meet
the Japanese. At that time It was realized
that reports that the Japanese had Intended
to attack the squadron in European waters
had been unfounded.

he makes, and he Is Just as quick as a fiash.
Sometimes he throws the ball clear Into the
bleachers, but one can overlook that for he
makes so many wonderful plays.
Third base Is to be tilled with one of
Pa's new men, and I have not had an In
troduction to any of them yet; hut I ex
pect to have Just as soon as the season
opens.
Leftfleld! I Just think Mr. Thlel Is Just
as mean as he can be, and I won't like
him the least little bit If he don't sign. He
wants more money and Pa Just can't afford
It. He Is such a fine fielder and base run
ner. I -do hope they will fix up the matter
some way, ror we an Know wnni ne can
do. I think when tha warm days come I
Thiel will come with them. i
Centerfleld our own Dr. Harry AVeleh j
will be there. My but nln't he a big. hand- i
some fellow, and how ne can nit tne bail!
Home runs are Just too easy for him. No,
he don't run like an Ice wagon, either. He
Is such a big fellow he looks like It. But,
honest, he doesn't. This year he will be
better than ever, for he Is going to play
further back and run up on the balls. Say,
he Just can't get a ball if he has to run
back for it.
Rightfleld Mr. Carter will take care of
that and that Is enough said, for "Bobby
Nick" Is one of the ery best fielders In the
business, and as a base runner, oh Minnie,
you Just ought to see him beat out a bunt.
He Is Just grand, and that delightful south
ern urcent of his Is so fascinating.
Pitchers We will have some good ones,
even if thnt nasty old big league did take I
two of our stare from us. Mr. Pfelster is I
king and knows all about how to fool the I
batters. He has been In the big league, i
too. Mr. Quick is as nanasome as ne cun
be and is such a swell dresser, and he has
some very choice in and out shoots which
will fool them every time. Mr. Sanders, he
of the quick return It Is wonderful to see
him catch a batter napping and shoot one
over the base, and It's sure to be a strike.
He haa been In the big league, too. Mr.
Lelbhardt I did not see much of last sea
son but I understand he made good In the
Three I. Mr. Companion Is all right now
and will no doubt prove a great help If he
will sign, and honestly 1 don't think Paul
Is treating Fa right. He was sick last sum
mer and couldn't work and Pa Just treated
him as a father should. I am sure when
he thinks of that he will feel ashamed of
himself and sign all right.
Now, goodby Minnie. I didn't Intend to
write such a long letter, but when I get to
talking base ball I Just can't stop Yours,
with lots of love, KITTIE.
p. 8. Now you mustn't forget you owe
me two letters. Write soon.
IOWA ATHLETES IN TRAINING
Dase Dall and Track Teams Begin to
Work Ont.
IOWA CITY, Ia., March 25. (Speclul.)
Work on the athletic field has been the
feature of the lost week for both the track
nnd the base ball squads. While the
weather is not sufficiently Bettled to permit
regular work there, the men have an oppor
tunity to get the stiffness out of their legs
occasionally tnd that la all either Coach
Delaney or Chalmers desire for some time
to come. Among the track candidates the
hard training goes uneventfully forward.
Coach Delaney driving the men in a way
they have never before experienced. While
It is far to early In the season to pick the
new men who look good, the entire squad
has shown rapid and consistent improve
ment. The base ball squad, numbering over
fifty now, haa had the greatest advantage
in the pleasant weather which has per
mitted them the use of the field and open
air work. While the squad Is not particu
larly strong as a whole, the pitching de
partment at least contains new men of ex
ceptional ability. Iowa's pitching staff of
last season was one of the strongest in
tha state and all of the men who composed
it are back in the university this spring
and will be at the disposal of Coach Chal
mers. In addition, Johnson, Kent, Work
man and Poyneer seem to show in the beat
pie-season form.
The fact remains that Chalmers will prac
tically have to build up an entire new out
field and probably place at least two new
men In the infield. For a while at least
there can be little doubt but that the team
play will be awkward until the new men
become accustomed to one another and get
Into the swing of the season's work.
But as in the track squad, the host of
willing material, however unexperienced In
university athletics, will be an element of
strength In the final reckoning In both dual
and state meets. The men go through their
stunts with a vim that has not been char
acteristic of the squad in several years past.
Delaney has been able to get more work out
of his men than the average coach has, and
In consequence in the fundamentals of the
game, at least, the men are making rapid
strides. His plan of a second track team
met with instant favor and will undoubtedly
act aa a check on the desertions which
usually are expected in the middle of the
season.

PREPARING SHIP FOR ROYALTY
Fastest Battleship In Navy Will Carry
Prince and Princess to
India.
LONDON, March 26. (Special Cablegram
to The Bee.) The battleship Renown has
been selected to convey the prince and prin
cess of Wales to India in the autumn. The
Renown Is at present berthed at Davenport
nnd the authorities have received orders
from the prince of Wales stating that he
will visit the vessel, which Is to be moved
to Portsmouth, on the 29th Inst.
The prince and princess of Wales will
embark on the ship November 9. The Re
nown Is the fastest battleship in the British
fleet, and very early In Its career estab
lished a record which has never yet been
beaten, running home from Bermuda to
Plymouth at a sustained sea speed of
fifteen knots.
The king has approved of the appoint
ment of Sir Walter Lawrence, K. C. I. E.,
to be head of the staff during the coming
visit of the prince and princess of Wales
to India.
Their royal highnesses will be received In
India by his excellency the viceroy, as the
representative of the king.
It Is the intention of their royal hlgh
nessfi to visit, so far as the time at their
disposal will permit, the principal cities of
British India and the more Important na
tive states. During the tour his royal
highness will receive the princes and chiefs
who rule under the paramount protection
of the king-emperor, and will holdlevees,
at which will be presented to him the prin
cipal personages of his majesty's Indian
dominions.
Although the prince and princess of
Wales visited a large number of the British
possessions across the seas In the memor
able tour of the Ophlr, which lasted from
Mnrch to November, .1901, India was not
included in the extensive itinerary of that
occasion. Outwardbound, it Is true, the
vessel touched at Colombo, where their
royal highnesses went ashore, but time
only permitted of a Journey to Kandy, and
much else that they would like to have seen
In the Island of Ceylon had to be foregone
In order thnt the passage to Australia
should not be delayed. It will be Just
thirty years next November since
tho king, then prince of Wales,
landed at Bombay and was enthusiastic
ally welcomed by the hundreds of millions
of people of the vast peninsula who now
acknowledge his sway. Peona wns next
visited, with a stop enroute to Klrkee,
where was fought the momentous battle
which decided the fate of the Mahratta
empire and established British rule in India.
At Buroda, the capital of a native state,
where, of course, the . receptions were
purely native and Oriental, the young
gaekwar magnificently entertained his il
lustrious visitor. Ceylon was touched on
the way round to Madras, and thence for
ward, at every city visited Calcutta, Be
nares, the sacred city of the Hindoos;
Lucknow, with Its memories of the mutiny;
Cawnpore, the scene of a great tragedy;
Delhi, the ancient city of the Mogul em
pire; Lahore and Jaypore went on an In
cessant round of stately and elaborate
ceremonies, which the fervid loyalty of the
British rulers, Indian princes and native
people Imposed on the shahzadah, as the
prince was everywhere greeted. Four
months In all were spent In Great Britain's
eastern empire, during which his royal
highness traveled some 8,000 mlles.by land
and 2,500 miles by sea.
DEVOLUTION PLAN IS FEARED
lister Liberal I'nlonlsts Adopt Strong
Resolutions Denouncing; the
Punraven Scheme.
BELFAST, March 26.-(Specisl Cable
gram to The Bee.) At a meeting of the
executive committee of the Ulster Liberal
Unionist association this week Mr. Thomas
Andrews in the chair, a resolution was
passed which, after reaffirming a declara
tion of the committee of September SO, 1904,
in opposition to the devolution proposals of
the so-called Irish Reform association,
proceeds:
While we welcome every suggestion for
Arwfriy . RmTibr tha Full 4fm

Cbtm CoW iaOMDcy. CrCCi 2 Day
Increased efficiency and economy In tha
administration of Irish affiitrs, the execu
tive committee objects most strongly ti
the proposal for entrusting the control of
the finances of Ireland to an elective finan
cial board whose Interposition between th
House of Commons and the country would,
be fatal either to economy, cllU-iincv or
Impartiality In the administration of piihllo
money. Such a body, If It possessed real
control of the purse," would become in ef
fect a home rule government without Its
responsibility; and. on the other hand. If it
were not endowed with such real power
would simply constitute another center of
mischievous agitation and for resistance
to the authority of the Imperial govern
ment. In the opinion of the executive com
mittee the proposal to appoint a statutory
Irish council constituted with Indefinite
power Is either nieaninfckss or it is In
tended to prepare the wav for the estab
lishment of a separate Parliament In Dub
lin. These proposals, In the Judgment of
the executive committee, are essentially
Inconsistent with the funrtnmentnl princi
ples of unionist policy, anil consequently
inust he opposed with the uncompromising
determination as were the openly sepa
ratist proposals of Mr. Gladstone.
Tho exectulve committee has observed
with deep disappointment the action of
the government, us disclosed In the corre
spondence of the ex-chief secretary during
September, lwe, and In recent ministerial
admissions in Parliament, bv which In
the defiance of well established constltu-
tionnl llmA ,nH .tl...... .V... i.
of Parliament or of the country, thev en
dowed an official of the civil" service In
Ire and with powers of influencing tho
policy nnd acts of the Irish administration
which should be entrusted only to a min
ister personally responsible to "Parliament.
The executive committee cordially recog
nizes the valuable services rendered by
the Flster unionist members In bringing
to light the circumstances In which this
extraordinary unconstitutional blunder was
made and urges upon them that, while
continuing to maintain their vigilant watch
on the administrative action of the Irish
government, they should, in the interest
of the maintenance of the legislative union
nnd the unimpaired efficiency of the Im
perial parliament, press upon the cabinet
tho supreme Importance of effectively set
tling the all Important question of redistri
bution during the present session.
The executive committee hns read with
great satisfaction the letter of tho prime
minister addressed to the solicitor general
for Scotland, emphasizing the danger that
the policy of home rule only awaits tha
advent of the opposition to power again
to become active, militant and perilous and
that therefore it rests with the unionist
party In the future, as In the past, to
defend the constitution of the country. The
executive committee confidently calls upon
the prime minister so to adjust the policy
of the government In Ireland as to enabio
Irish unionists to close their ranks and In
co-operation with the rest of the unionist
party to present an unbroken front against
the common enemy.
