A practically general trend of the peasants north and south is the seizing of forest lafcds, hi which they had the right of etatting firewood before emancipation. The peasants are resisting the police and soldiers under cover of the forests and find protection that is almost invulnerable. Thousands of acres of forest lniid have been burned in conflicts between the peasants and the police. The peasant uprising is the most serious phase of the internal situation at present, comparative quiet having been restored in the cities. The leaders of the city workmen, however, are in close touch «ritli the country agitators, and it is feared that the present quiet in the industrial centers forbodes serious disturbances in the near future. THE RUSSIAN POSITION POLICEMEN WOUNDED FORTUNE WAS SPENT. INDICTMENT POSSIBLE "I am only a soldier," he said, "not n politician. The Japanese government will arrange terms of peace when the time conies. We were forced to fight this war In the interests of international peace and for the safety of our country. Personally I have n high regard for Russians. They are soldiers. The officers and men are brave and able and have fought well. peace.

"The success of this business from the beginning until now has been largely due to unlawful manipulations of railway rates. Washington, March 27.—All precarations for tho prosecution of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad by the Federal Government for granting illegal rebates to the Colorado Fuel and Iron Co., of which Secretary Paul Morton was an "officer, havebeen virtually completed, and within a fortnight the case will be presented to the courts. Paris, March 27.—Marshal Oyamu's army and the unexpected success of the Japanese war loan will have more to do with promoting the present move for peace than any demand by either the newspapers or the Liberal party in Russia. The news that the Japanese domestic loan was oversubscribed several times makes it clear that Japan will not have to worry about financing the war. That country apparently, for a time at least, could if it pleased borrow all its money at home. Warsaw, March 27.—Great excitement prevails in this city because of the wounding of Baron von Noiken, chief of police of Warsaw, last night, by a bomb thrown into his carriage. The baron was severely injured in the head and neck and 011 the arm and leg. Chicago, March 27.—Frank Ely Rogers, the Bvanston boy who mysteriously disappeared with his aunt. Miss Florence Ely, 011 July 18, 1001, lias just turned up, ragged, dejected and weary. His aunt is still missing, and the boy offers no solution* of the mystery so far as it involves her. "During the war between China and Japan I was the commander of the army which captured Port Arthur. With a division and a half of troops we took the city in five hours. The result this time shows the wonderful difference between the Russians and the Chinese, with whom we had previous experience. Rut our army, both sol diers and officers, performed their duty as Japan knew they would. I was minister of war for Japan for sixteen years, during which time conscription laws were passed. I have closely watched the making of the Japanese army, which lias proved what 1 say— that the officers and the men have fulfilled every hope, as I believed they would in the older days, when the Japanese army was composed of the samuri, professional fighting men. The modern army was drafted from all classes, yet mII our hopes have been fully realized by the work this army has done in actual war." "The United States government is now engaged in a strenuous attempt to ferret out and punish this Injustice. And the people of the United States have a tremendous battle on their hands with the corporate greed which has intrenched itself in this stronghold and has learned to use the railways for the oppression and spoliation of the people. Miss Ely was a noted pianist and made her home with her sifter, Mrs. Rogers. She was insanely devoted to the boy from the hour of his birth. She took the mother's place in caring foi the baby. Her whole existence seemed to be wrapped up in the lad. This af fection caused much talk. According to the latest information the attack on Baron von Nolken was the result of an elaborate conspiracy of the revolutionary party. Earlier in the evening an elegantly dressed man went to the police station at Praga. a large suburb of Warsaw on the other side of the Vistula, and threw a bomb into the courtyard of the station, wounding seven policemen, two of them dangerously, and destroyed all the furniture in the station. The man started to run away, but was caught by the captain of the station. He was found to be a Jew, but his identity has not yet been discovered. THE VENEZUBfl-A SITUATION The Government will present in a short time, to the United States grand jury, at Albuquerque, New Mexico, all the evidence collected by the Interstate Commerce Commission relating to this case. If the grand jury return an indictment—and the legal officers of the administration are confident it will—the Government will, begin the prosecution of the case as soon as it can get a day in court. "And now on the eve of this bottle they are asked to accept a great Rift of money from the man who more completely than any other represents the system they are summoned to fight. President and Cabinet Waiting For Au- thentic Newt From Caracas. The military stategists who have followed the operations of Oyamafs army say that the position of General IJnevitch is much more serious than is reported in the press dispatches from the front, and they agree that Emperor Nicholas and his ministers are fully awake to the probability that the Japanese within two months can cut the army off botli east and west on the Transsiberian railway and place it in a position where it cannot get away from annihilation or defeat. Washington, March 27.—It is reported here, hilt cannot be confirmed through any officials of the state department, that President Castro has intimated strongly to the Washington government that friendly relations with Venezuela would be better maintained by the withdrawal of Minister Bowen. Nobody representing President Roosevelt will make public Castro's message, but there seems to be no doubt that the Venezuelan president insists that Minister Bowen is attempting to create a situation not warranted by anything that Venezuela has done. "I hope they are not mean enough to take his money and then turn around and fight him. I hope they are not so faithless to their obligations as to take his money and shut their mouths or become his apologists." The boy was fourteen years old ol' the July day when he and his aunt, aged forty, disappeared. Changed Beyond Recognition. • . It was with faltering, hesitating footsteps that he approached the old home of his childhood, now occupied by strangers. Ills appearance was in marked contrast with that of the happy, smiling boy who disappeared nearly four years ago. » The prosecution may include not only the Santa Fe but also the Colorado Fuel & Iron Co., and probably the El Paso and Southwestern railroad. The law provides for the punishment not only of corporatkyaljf * which grant rebates, but also mose which receive them. The evidence against the EI Paso and Southwestern road is not strong, and it may escape RIVERS AT FLOOD TIDE. A telephone message was immediately sent to Baron von Nolken at the city hall, informing him of the outrage. Haron von Nolken. accompanied by a police officer, look a carriage and started immediately for Praga. When passing the castle where the governor general resides a mail standing 011 the pavement threw a bomb at the carriage. Barou von Nolken, who was sitting 011 the side nearest "the assailant, received the full charge of the bomb, while his companion escaped unhurt. The coachman was thrown from the box, and the carriage was smashed. Hudson and Mohawk Swollen by Rap- idly Melting Snow. Despite the reports to the contrary, Oyama's health is excellent. With iiis staff lie is comfortably quartered in fine Chinese houses, placed at his disposal by the Chinese viceroy here. Not knowing that his parents had moved to Chicago wince his disappearance, the boy, now almost a man. timidly approached the door of the old home. Then he turned away. He met a former playmate, whom he called by name. The boy did not recognize him. His dirty appearance and torn, ragged clothes made a complete disguise. His voice and manner, too, were changed. Albany, N. Y„ March 27.—The unseasonable warmth of the Inst two days, with recent rains, has sent the Hudson over the docks here for the first time this year. All the streets bordering the river are flooded. No severe freshet is expected, lnfwever, for the ice has left the river between here and Castleton, where the most jams are formed, and it Is not likely that there will be any bad gorges this year. A recognition of this situation is helping the peace conferences now undoubtedly going 011 in I'aris and Copenhagen, and perhaps in Stockholm. In diplomatic quarters here and on high authority it is again announced that Japan will require from Itussia a pledge that no warships shall be built for a term of years. A diplomat representing one of the greatest world powers said Japan's policy would be against any possible renewal of hostilities for a generation to come and that Japan would be justified, in the interest of peace in the orient, in limiting Russia's naval armament. This humiliating condition, however, would not be accepted in the prwent condition of things in St. Petersburg. The French newspapers say it is impossi hie, and they hint that Japan probably is asking a great deal more than she really expects to get. Several officials of the government are disposed to admit that on the surface of things Castro and his advisers have as yet done nothing which would warrant forcible interference. One member of the cabinet is quoted as saying that Castro lias the advantage which every sharper has over the honest man, in utter indifference to decency and nubile opinion. By his acquiescence in the award of The Hague tribunal in 1003 Castro rendered the three pnncipal ports of his country practically safe from attack by foreign nations. He diverted trade to the remaining ports, which lie now proposes to cover in a similar manner by agreement with (Jrcat Britain and Germany. This in effect places an impregnable wall a I unit \ enezuela. Castro in reality lias two-thirds of the armed forces of the world guaranteeing ills comfort aittTsatet.v. prosecution Since the investigation was concluded by the Interstate Commerce Commission the evidence has been turned over to the department of justice and by the attorney general handed to Judson Harmon, attorney general in the second Cleveldnd administration, and Mr. Judson, of St. Louis, special attorneys employed by the government to prosecute the case. A GOOD DEAD OK NONSENSE, AImhiI "Blood Purifiers" anil "Tonics." Every drop of blood, every bono, nerve and tissue in the body can be renewed in but one way, and that Is, from wholesome food properly digested. There is 110 other way and the idea that a medicine in itself can purify the blood or supply new tissues and strong nerves is ridiculous and 011 a par with the fol-de-rol that dyspepsia or Indigestion is a germ disease, or that other fallacy, that a weak stomach which refuses to digese food can be made to do so by irritating and Inflaming the bowels by pills and cathartics."Don't you remember me?" he asked, with an effort to laugh. "I'm Frank Threatening conditions are reported along the Mohawk valley. At Schenectady the Mohawk river is thirteen feet above the low water mark, and the large quantity of ice has moved the Glenvllle bridge three inches. The ice at this point has not broken, the water flowing over it, and a large gorge Just, west of the city threatens to break. It is feared that the bridge will give way, as it is the oldest structure which spans the Mohawk and has been damaged yearfy by floods. Alleged Counterfeiters Arrested, Baron von Nolken was removed to the city hall, and the doctors were suinnioned, who found he had received injuries 011 flic head, neck, arm and leg which are believed to be serious. Rogers." New Haven, Conn., March 27.—The police this morning captured two men supposed to' be William (Jober of 204 I.udlow street, New York, and Samuel Fastow. also of New York, who had with them complete counterfeiting outfits and a large sum of counterfeit money. The men were taken at the point of a revolver. Something in the laugh sounded familiar. and recognition followed. The boy took him to an old building, where he asked him to wait while his uncle, C. M. Rogers, was notified. Bomb Thrower Eludes Pursuers. Meanwhile the police official accompanying Baron von Nolken saw the bomb thrower fleeing and pursued and caught up with him. But the criminal proved the stronger and tore himself away. Another policeman fired twice after him without result. Half an hour later a mail was found dead in Sowia street, who proved to be a policeman, one of the pursuers. The po* lice think the man shot him while trying to escape arrest. Meeting With Mother 0«thetip. The meeting of the mother and her long lost boy was pathetic. She had ceased to hope to again see him on earth. With a cry of joy she threw her arms around him and showered liim with tears and kisses. She asked where his aunt was. and he stoutly denied that he had been with his aunt and said he did not know where she Farmer Held Up and Robbed, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure Indigestion, sour stomach, gas and bloating after meals, because they furnish the digestive principles which weak stomachs lack, and, unless the deficiency of pepsin and diastase is suppiled, it Is useless to attempt to cure stomach trouble by the use of "tonics," Tills is the situation as it presents itself to the president anil his cabinet and perhaps explains the resignation with which they are patiently waiting for the mall from Caracas before learning the full text of C'astro's refusal to arbitrate pending claims of the United Suites.

St. Petersburg, March 27.—Alarming reports are coming from all parts of the empire of the spread of the revolutionary spirit. Peasants are in arms against the governments in central Russia, and there Is n grave fear that they will get completely from under control in the central provinces as well as in the southern and western regions. The burning of property is .being pursued with malignant fury by the peasints in the Chernlgow government, the country folk directing their attacks mainly against the property of M. Tereschtenko, a millionaire sugar refiner, who has 400,000 acrcs planted in beets. Several landlords hnve been assassinated In the government, and the police and military are helpless.

A practically general trend of the peasants north and south is the seizing of forest lafcds, hi which they had the right of etatting firewood before emancipation. The peasants are resisting the police and soldiers under cover of the forests and find protection that is almost invulnerable. Thousands of acres of forest lniid have been burned in conflicts between the peasants and the police. The peasant uprising is the most serious phase of the internal situation at present, comparative quiet having been restored in the cities. The leaders of the city workmen, however, are in close touch «ritli the country agitators, and it is feared that the present quiet in the industrial centers forbodes serious disturbances in the near future. THE RUSSIAN POSITION POLICEMEN WOUNDED FORTUNE WAS SPENT. INDICTMENT POSSIBLE "I am only a soldier," he said, "not n politician. The Japanese government will arrange terms of peace when the time conies. We were forced to fight this war In the interests of international peace and for the safety of our country. Personally I have n high regard for Russians. They are soldiers. The officers and men are brave and able and have fought well. peace.

"The success of this business from the beginning until now has been largely due to unlawful manipulations of railway rates. Washington, March 27.—All precarations for tho prosecution of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad by the Federal Government for granting illegal rebates to the Colorado Fuel and Iron Co., of which Secretary Paul Morton was an "officer, havebeen virtually completed, and within a fortnight the case will be presented to the courts. Paris, March 27.—Marshal Oyamu's army and the unexpected success of the Japanese war loan will have more to do with promoting the present move for peace than any demand by either the newspapers or the Liberal party in Russia. The news that the Japanese domestic loan was oversubscribed several times makes it clear that Japan will not have to worry about financing the war. That country apparently, for a time at least, could if it pleased borrow all its money at home. Warsaw, March 27.—Great excitement prevails in this city because of the wounding of Baron von Noiken, chief of police of Warsaw, last night, by a bomb thrown into his carriage. The baron was severely injured in the head and neck and 011 the arm and leg. Chicago, March 27.—Frank Ely Rogers, the Bvanston boy who mysteriously disappeared with his aunt. Miss Florence Ely, 011 July 18, 1001, lias just turned up, ragged, dejected and weary. His aunt is still missing, and the boy offers no solution* of the mystery so far as it involves her. "During the war between China and Japan I was the commander of the army which captured Port Arthur. With a division and a half of troops we took the city in five hours. The result this time shows the wonderful difference between the Russians and the Chinese, with whom we had previous experience. Rut our army, both sol diers and officers, performed their duty as Japan knew they would. I was minister of war for Japan for sixteen years, during which time conscription laws were passed. I have closely watched the making of the Japanese army, which lias proved what 1 say— that the officers and the men have fulfilled every hope, as I believed they would in the older days, when the Japanese army was composed of the samuri, professional fighting men. The modern army was drafted from all classes, yet mII our hopes have been fully realized by the work this army has done in actual war." "The United States government is now engaged in a strenuous attempt to ferret out and punish this Injustice. And the people of the United States have a tremendous battle on their hands with the corporate greed which has intrenched itself in this stronghold and has learned to use the railways for the oppression and spoliation of the people. Miss Ely was a noted pianist and made her home with her sifter, Mrs. Rogers. She was insanely devoted to the boy from the hour of his birth. She took the mother's place in caring foi the baby. Her whole existence seemed to be wrapped up in the lad. This af fection caused much talk. According to the latest information the attack on Baron von Nolken was the result of an elaborate conspiracy of the revolutionary party. Earlier in the evening an elegantly dressed man went to the police station at Praga. a large suburb of Warsaw on the other side of the Vistula, and threw a bomb into the courtyard of the station, wounding seven policemen, two of them dangerously, and destroyed all the furniture in the station. The man started to run away, but was caught by the captain of the station. He was found to be a Jew, but his identity has not yet been discovered. THE VENEZUBfl-A SITUATION The Government will present in a short time, to the United States grand jury, at Albuquerque, New Mexico, all the evidence collected by the Interstate Commerce Commission relating to this case. If the grand jury return an indictment—and the legal officers of the administration are confident it will—the Government will, begin the prosecution of the case as soon as it can get a day in court. "And now on the eve of this bottle they are asked to accept a great Rift of money from the man who more completely than any other represents the system they are summoned to fight. President and Cabinet Waiting For Au- thentic Newt From Caracas. The military stategists who have followed the operations of Oyamafs army say that the position of General IJnevitch is much more serious than is reported in the press dispatches from the front, and they agree that Emperor Nicholas and his ministers are fully awake to the probability that the Japanese within two months can cut the army off botli east and west on the Transsiberian railway and place it in a position where it cannot get away from annihilation or defeat. Washington, March 27.—It is reported here, hilt cannot be confirmed through any officials of the state department, that President Castro has intimated strongly to the Washington government that friendly relations with Venezuela would be better maintained by the withdrawal of Minister Bowen. Nobody representing President Roosevelt will make public Castro's message, but there seems to be no doubt that the Venezuelan president insists that Minister Bowen is attempting to create a situation not warranted by anything that Venezuela has done. "I hope they are not mean enough to take his money and then turn around and fight him. I hope they are not so faithless to their obligations as to take his money and shut their mouths or become his apologists." The boy was fourteen years old ol' the July day when he and his aunt, aged forty, disappeared. Changed Beyond Recognition. • . It was with faltering, hesitating footsteps that he approached the old home of his childhood, now occupied by strangers. Ills appearance was in marked contrast with that of the happy, smiling boy who disappeared nearly four years ago. » The prosecution may include not only the Santa Fe but also the Colorado Fuel & Iron Co., and probably the El Paso and Southwestern railroad. The law provides for the punishment not only of corporatkyaljf * which grant rebates, but also mose which receive them. The evidence against the EI Paso and Southwestern road is not strong, and it may escape RIVERS AT FLOOD TIDE. A telephone message was immediately sent to Baron von Nolken at the city hall, informing him of the outrage. Haron von Nolken. accompanied by a police officer, look a carriage and started immediately for Praga. When passing the castle where the governor general resides a mail standing 011 the pavement threw a bomb at the carriage. Barou von Nolken, who was sitting 011 the side nearest "the assailant, received the full charge of the bomb, while his companion escaped unhurt. The coachman was thrown from the box, and the carriage was smashed. Hudson and Mohawk Swollen by Rap- idly Melting Snow. Despite the reports to the contrary, Oyama's health is excellent. With iiis staff lie is comfortably quartered in fine Chinese houses, placed at his disposal by the Chinese viceroy here. Not knowing that his parents had moved to Chicago wince his disappearance, the boy, now almost a man. timidly approached the door of the old home. Then he turned away. He met a former playmate, whom he called by name. The boy did not recognize him. His dirty appearance and torn, ragged clothes made a complete disguise. His voice and manner, too, were changed. Albany, N. Y„ March 27.—The unseasonable warmth of the Inst two days, with recent rains, has sent the Hudson over the docks here for the first time this year. All the streets bordering the river are flooded. No severe freshet is expected, lnfwever, for the ice has left the river between here and Castleton, where the most jams are formed, and it Is not likely that there will be any bad gorges this year. A recognition of this situation is helping the peace conferences now undoubtedly going 011 in I'aris and Copenhagen, and perhaps in Stockholm. In diplomatic quarters here and on high authority it is again announced that Japan will require from Itussia a pledge that no warships shall be built for a term of years. A diplomat representing one of the greatest world powers said Japan's policy would be against any possible renewal of hostilities for a generation to come and that Japan would be justified, in the interest of peace in the orient, in limiting Russia's naval armament. This humiliating condition, however, would not be accepted in the prwent condition of things in St. Petersburg. The French newspapers say it is impossi hie, and they hint that Japan probably is asking a great deal more than she really expects to get. Several officials of the government are disposed to admit that on the surface of things Castro and his advisers have as yet done nothing which would warrant forcible interference. One member of the cabinet is quoted as saying that Castro lias the advantage which every sharper has over the honest man, in utter indifference to decency and nubile opinion. By his acquiescence in the award of The Hague tribunal in 1003 Castro rendered the three pnncipal ports of his country practically safe from attack by foreign nations. He diverted trade to the remaining ports, which lie now proposes to cover in a similar manner by agreement with (Jrcat Britain and Germany. This in effect places an impregnable wall a I unit \ enezuela. Castro in reality lias two-thirds of the armed forces of the world guaranteeing ills comfort aittTsatet.v. prosecution Since the investigation was concluded by the Interstate Commerce Commission the evidence has been turned over to the department of justice and by the attorney general handed to Judson Harmon, attorney general in the second Cleveldnd administration, and Mr. Judson, of St. Louis, special attorneys employed by the government to prosecute the case. A GOOD DEAD OK NONSENSE, AImhiI "Blood Purifiers" anil "Tonics." Every drop of blood, every bono, nerve and tissue in the body can be renewed in but one way, and that Is, from wholesome food properly digested. There is 110 other way and the idea that a medicine in itself can purify the blood or supply new tissues and strong nerves is ridiculous and 011 a par with the fol-de-rol that dyspepsia or Indigestion is a germ disease, or that other fallacy, that a weak stomach which refuses to digese food can be made to do so by irritating and Inflaming the bowels by pills and cathartics."Don't you remember me?" he asked, with an effort to laugh. "I'm Frank Threatening conditions are reported along the Mohawk valley. At Schenectady the Mohawk river is thirteen feet above the low water mark, and the large quantity of ice has moved the Glenvllle bridge three inches. The ice at this point has not broken, the water flowing over it, and a large gorge Just, west of the city threatens to break. It is feared that the bridge will give way, as it is the oldest structure which spans the Mohawk and has been damaged yearfy by floods. Alleged Counterfeiters Arrested, Baron von Nolken was removed to the city hall, and the doctors were suinnioned, who found he had received injuries 011 flic head, neck, arm and leg which are believed to be serious. Rogers." New Haven, Conn., March 27.—The police this morning captured two men supposed to' be William (Jober of 204 I.udlow street, New York, and Samuel Fastow. also of New York, who had with them complete counterfeiting outfits and a large sum of counterfeit money. The men were taken at the point of a revolver. Something in the laugh sounded familiar. and recognition followed. The boy took him to an old building, where he asked him to wait while his uncle, C. M. Rogers, was notified. Bomb Thrower Eludes Pursuers. Meanwhile the police official accompanying Baron von Nolken saw the bomb thrower fleeing and pursued and caught up with him. But the criminal proved the stronger and tore himself away. Another policeman fired twice after him without result. Half an hour later a mail was found dead in Sowia street, who proved to be a policeman, one of the pursuers. The po* lice think the man shot him while trying to escape arrest. Meeting With Mother 0«thetip. The meeting of the mother and her long lost boy was pathetic. She had ceased to hope to again see him on earth. With a cry of joy she threw her arms around him and showered liim with tears and kisses. She asked where his aunt was. and he stoutly denied that he had been with his aunt and said he did not know where she Farmer Held Up and Robbed, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure Indigestion, sour stomach, gas and bloating after meals, because they furnish the digestive principles which weak stomachs lack, and, unless the deficiency of pepsin and diastase is suppiled, it Is useless to attempt to cure stomach trouble by the use of "tonics," Tills is the situation as it presents itself to the president anil his cabinet and perhaps explains the resignation with which they are patiently waiting for the mall from Caracas before learning the full text of C'astro's refusal to arbitrate pending claims of the United Suites.

St. Petersburg, March 27.—Alarming reports are coming from all parts of the empire of the spread of the revolutionary spirit. Peasants are in arms against the governments in central Russia, and there Is n grave fear that they will get completely from under control in the central provinces as well as in the southern and western regions. The burning of property is .being pursued with malignant fury by the peasints in the Chernlgow government, the country folk directing their attacks mainly against the property of M. Tereschtenko, a millionaire sugar refiner, who has 400,000 acrcs planted in beets. Several landlords hnve been assassinated In the government, and the police and military are helpless.
