Washington, Aug. 8. — Lieutenant General Nelson A. Miles, commanding the army, retired from active service at noon today, having reached the age limit of sixtv-four rears. London, Aug. 8.—The Times prints a dispatch from Kiev, Russia, which says thut the disaffection among the worklngmen is widening and that disturbances have occurred at Kharkolf, Ekaterlnoslaff and other centers. Sanguinary conflicts were reported Wednesday and Thursday at N'ikolaleff, during which the troops tired, killing twelve outright and wounding 200. The governor was seriously wounded, and the correspondent says that troops are being hurried to Nlkolaieff and other disaffected centers with all speed. Paris, Aug. 8.—The trial of the Humberts, of "Crawford millions" fame, opened in the assize court today. Great Interest Is being taken in the case and the court room was crowded. Mtae. Humbert maintained her previous attitude of bravado,' continually Interrupting the proceedings with protests. During her examination, she frequently turned to the judge and, in tones of anger, plied him with questions. She denied all the charges against her, repeated her assertion that the Crawford millions exist and declared that her only error was In losing her head for a moment and fleeing from Paris. Baron von Sternburg was escorted by Sir. Loomis to the reception room, where President Roosevelt and his military aid were waiting. Mr. Loomis made the formal presentation. Baron von Sternburg then delivered his credentials.Distribution of merchandise Is so heavy that railway equipment ahvady proves inadequate, although crops are not the factor that they will be in a few weeks. Earnings for July exceeded last year's by 12.7 per cent and those of 1001 by 20.2 per cent. On the whole, news from the farms is less favorable, but no serious curtailment Is assured, and many sections make very bright reports. Gen. Miles reached his office at 9 o'clock. From 9 to 10.30 he held a reception to clerks in his personal office and also received a few members of the G. A. R., who happened to be passing through Washington en route to San FranciBco. Considerable emotion was exhibited by Miles when he was presented by his clerks with a magnificent sliver loving cup.

At 10.30 the new lieutenant general of the army, Samuel B. M. Young, and Adjutant General Corbln, who had not spoken to Miles "for more than a year, passed Into the private office of the grizzled veteran to pay their official respects. Owing to personal enstrangement between Miles and the Secretary of War, the retiring general did not go to the office of Secretary Root to pay his final respects, but instead sent his aide, I,t.-Col. Reber, for that purpose shortly before noon. Work over a vast area Is stagnant, and the situation is becoming dangerous, the Antigovernment party being furnished with an excellent for their whip by the military rigors shown in the suppression of the right of free speech. The correspondent computes during July in various parts of Kusshi that 200 strikers were killed outright and fully 2,000 seriously wounded and says it is agreed ou all hands that M. von Plehve has a labor problem which will tax all his strength. A considerable portion of industrial Itussla is already in a condition bordering upon wholesale anarchy. Foreign commerce for the lust week at this port shows gains of $1,042,278 in imports and $2,335,180 in exports as compared with the same week lust year. MRS. MAYBRICK'S CASE. Baron von Sternburg, however, returned to Sagamore Hill. For a part of the afternoon the president and the ambassador practiced rifle shooting. Both are experts at the butts, the ambassador when in practice having been regarded as one of the finest shots in the German army. The ambassador remained overnight.at Sagamore Hill. IT PAYS TO BUY AT THE PEOPLE'S STORE Manchester Guardian Says She May Not be Released Next Year. Consumption of iron and steel is on a large scale, and iu many departments the past week has witnessed the signing of numerous contracts, but there is a tendency to delay purchases beyond early needs. Manchester, England, Aug. 8.— Apropos of the fact that Mrs. Florence Maybrick, who was sentenced to imprisonment for life on conviction of poisoning her husband, today enters upon her fifteenth year of servitude, the Manchester Guardian says that it is not at all certain she will be released in 1904 because of good conduct. In a majority of cases, the paper says a life sentence means the full twenty years of incarceration regardless of the prisoner's behvlor. "If Mrs. Maybrick Is freed before 1909," concludes the ar tide, "It will be a distinct concession on the part of the government." STEGMAIER BREWING COMPANY, 15 South Main St., Pittston. ALWAYS THE CHEAPEST. WILKESBARRE, PA. Liabilities of all bankrupt concerns for the month reached the exceptionally high sum of $10,751,245, far exceeding any other July for a decade. The average for the nine years immediately preceding was about $9,000,000. Of course a large share of the month's defaulted liabilities was provided by a few large brokerage suspensions, but there was also a building concern that failed for a considerable amount, and twenty-two firms defaulted for over $100,000 each, supplying $10,011,304, or two-thirds of the total losses for the 915 failures. It was said on high authority that the reception by the president of the German ambassador at Sagamore Hill is not to be regarded as a precedent, although It is the first time in the history of the country that an ambassador has presented his credentials to the president outside of Washington. EVANS BROS. • Several orders resulting from the retirement of General Miles have been issued, one assigning Lieutenant General Young to the command of the army until Aug. 15, when he will assume the duties of chief of staff; another as signing Major General Corbln as president of the Soldiers' home board, another assigning Brigadier General Gillespie as president of the board of ordnance and fortification and still another assigning Lieutenant General Young as a member of the Sherman statue commission.

The tram cars were stopped and overturned, and a desperate attack was made 011 the government spirit depot, the mob literally hurling itself upon the bayonets of the military guard. It was here that the most fatalities occurred. Half a battalion of Cossacks, summoned from Odessa, helped to suppress the tumult. Although roughly handled and wounded, the governor with praiseworthy restraint declined to permit the troops to fire. RAILWAY MACHINISTS STRIKE, Ditrand, Mich., Aug. 8.—The responsibility for the terrible railway disaster in the Grand Trunk yards here, In which twenty-three persons were killed outright and over thirty injured, some of them so severely that death has since occurred, is unhesitatingly laid to Engineer Probst of Battle Creek'.

Washington, Aug. 8. — Lieutenant General Nelson A. Miles, commanding the army, retired from active service at noon today, having reached the age limit of sixtv-four rears. London, Aug. 8.—The Times prints a dispatch from Kiev, Russia, which says thut the disaffection among the worklngmen is widening and that disturbances have occurred at Kharkolf, Ekaterlnoslaff and other centers. Sanguinary conflicts were reported Wednesday and Thursday at N'ikolaleff, during which the troops tired, killing twelve outright and wounding 200. The governor was seriously wounded, and the correspondent says that troops are being hurried to Nlkolaieff and other disaffected centers with all speed. Paris, Aug. 8.—The trial of the Humberts, of "Crawford millions" fame, opened in the assize court today. Great Interest Is being taken in the case and the court room was crowded. Mtae. Humbert maintained her previous attitude of bravado,' continually Interrupting the proceedings with protests. During her examination, she frequently turned to the judge and, in tones of anger, plied him with questions. She denied all the charges against her, repeated her assertion that the Crawford millions exist and declared that her only error was In losing her head for a moment and fleeing from Paris. Baron von Sternburg was escorted by Sir. Loomis to the reception room, where President Roosevelt and his military aid were waiting. Mr. Loomis made the formal presentation. Baron von Sternburg then delivered his credentials.Distribution of merchandise Is so heavy that railway equipment ahvady proves inadequate, although crops are not the factor that they will be in a few weeks. Earnings for July exceeded last year's by 12.7 per cent and those of 1001 by 20.2 per cent. On the whole, news from the farms is less favorable, but no serious curtailment Is assured, and many sections make very bright reports. Gen. Miles reached his office at 9 o'clock. From 9 to 10.30 he held a reception to clerks in his personal office and also received a few members of the G. A. R., who happened to be passing through Washington en route to San FranciBco. Considerable emotion was exhibited by Miles when he was presented by his clerks with a magnificent sliver loving cup.

At 10.30 the new lieutenant general of the army, Samuel B. M. Young, and Adjutant General Corbln, who had not spoken to Miles "for more than a year, passed Into the private office of the grizzled veteran to pay their official respects. Owing to personal enstrangement between Miles and the Secretary of War, the retiring general did not go to the office of Secretary Root to pay his final respects, but instead sent his aide, I,t.-Col. Reber, for that purpose shortly before noon. Work over a vast area Is stagnant, and the situation is becoming dangerous, the Antigovernment party being furnished with an excellent for their whip by the military rigors shown in the suppression of the right of free speech. The correspondent computes during July in various parts of Kusshi that 200 strikers were killed outright and fully 2,000 seriously wounded and says it is agreed ou all hands that M. von Plehve has a labor problem which will tax all his strength. A considerable portion of industrial Itussla is already in a condition bordering upon wholesale anarchy. Foreign commerce for the lust week at this port shows gains of $1,042,278 in imports and $2,335,180 in exports as compared with the same week lust year. MRS. MAYBRICK'S CASE. Baron von Sternburg, however, returned to Sagamore Hill. For a part of the afternoon the president and the ambassador practiced rifle shooting. Both are experts at the butts, the ambassador when in practice having been regarded as one of the finest shots in the German army. The ambassador remained overnight.at Sagamore Hill. IT PAYS TO BUY AT THE PEOPLE'S STORE Manchester Guardian Says She May Not be Released Next Year. Consumption of iron and steel is on a large scale, and iu many departments the past week has witnessed the signing of numerous contracts, but there is a tendency to delay purchases beyond early needs. Manchester, England, Aug. 8.— Apropos of the fact that Mrs. Florence Maybrick, who was sentenced to imprisonment for life on conviction of poisoning her husband, today enters upon her fifteenth year of servitude, the Manchester Guardian says that it is not at all certain she will be released in 1904 because of good conduct. In a majority of cases, the paper says a life sentence means the full twenty years of incarceration regardless of the prisoner's behvlor. "If Mrs. Maybrick Is freed before 1909," concludes the ar tide, "It will be a distinct concession on the part of the government." STEGMAIER BREWING COMPANY, 15 South Main St., Pittston. ALWAYS THE CHEAPEST. WILKESBARRE, PA. Liabilities of all bankrupt concerns for the month reached the exceptionally high sum of $10,751,245, far exceeding any other July for a decade. The average for the nine years immediately preceding was about $9,000,000. Of course a large share of the month's defaulted liabilities was provided by a few large brokerage suspensions, but there was also a building concern that failed for a considerable amount, and twenty-two firms defaulted for over $100,000 each, supplying $10,011,304, or two-thirds of the total losses for the 915 failures. It was said on high authority that the reception by the president of the German ambassador at Sagamore Hill is not to be regarded as a precedent, although It is the first time in the history of the country that an ambassador has presented his credentials to the president outside of Washington. EVANS BROS. • Several orders resulting from the retirement of General Miles have been issued, one assigning Lieutenant General Young to the command of the army until Aug. 15, when he will assume the duties of chief of staff; another as signing Major General Corbln as president of the Soldiers' home board, another assigning Brigadier General Gillespie as president of the board of ordnance and fortification and still another assigning Lieutenant General Young as a member of the Sherman statue commission.

It was here that the most fatalities occurred. Half a battalion of Cossacks, summoned from Odessa, helped to suppress the tumult. Although roughly handled and wounded, the governor with praiseworthy restraint declined to permit the troops to fire.
