SOCIAL DEMOCRATS FI U Bicycle Officer Mosely Made Arrest on Top of Car As stated in the Telegraph yester day, the Board of Health passed an or der at its meting Wednesday night requiring the sanitary and food in spectors to provide themselves with ST. PETERSBURG. March 14.—To day's caucus of the oppositional par ties was devoted to a discussion of w&nt the lower house of parliament would do, after the reading of Premier Stolyplna's declaration of policy. It failed again to bring the social demo crats Into line, but the other parties expressed their displeasure at the so cial democratic obstruction with PRESIDENT HILL DECLARES THAT ROADS WILL BE FORCED TO RAISE RATES. ST PAs’L. Minn., March 14.—“I want to go on record here that your rates will be advanced in the northwest in place of being reduced. They will be advanced simply because It is neces sary to provide the service. This course will begin in the East. Now, I much empli; that this party is apt n °t complaining about rates, but now to nbnndon Its unpopular tactics. The feature of today's caucus was the attitude of the peasant members who after a week of schooling at the hands of the constitutional democrats are thoroughly impressed with the nec- esslty of cautiousness towards the gov- errmu nt. They are firmly convinced that the government would not hesi tate to dissolve parliament ot* its first misbehavior. The present deputies, .who are gradually gaining confidence , ! ..ln their power* of debate, today ar raigned tile social democrats as a " graver danger to the existence of the Dauma than is M. Kroushevan. the anti-semlte member and his henchmen, as a last resort, in case the social dem ocrats break the silence after the read ing the premier's declaration, next Fri day, the constitutional democrats will propose that opposition suspend the sitting and retire to the lobbies. The government has resolved to take drastic steps against the universities anil other institutions of higher lc '.rn- ing in order to put an end to the revo lutionary activity that prevails within their walls. Prince Andrew G. Gagarin, director of the polytechnic institute of St. Petersburg, in which establishment a number of arms, ammunition and l.ombs were found by the police on Mareh 3. has been dishonorably dis charged. Together with the governing board of the Institute he will be pros ecuted for criminal negligence for per mitting the sheltering of the arms and ammunition for revolutionary purposes in the institute entrusted to his super vision. present conditions would bankrup some of the railroads in this State." This declaration was made this after noon by President James J. Hill, of the i Great Northern railroad, before the Senate commission which is investigat ing the values of railroad property in Minnesota. Mr. Hill said his company had adopted the method of .reducing rates as the revenue justified 'and an investigation of the records would show that Its rates, especially on grain | and farm products, are lower than in ether parts of the country. Today Great Northern rates applied to Union Pacific rates would mean a reduction in the Union Pacific Income of more than $5,000,000 a year.” Asked by Attorney James Manahan, if it were not true that the lines in the East have been making enormous profits recently, Mr. Hill replied that he did not think so. .He showed outbf the whole question of operating was going ! to a different basis, the cost has in creased so much that he knew of an eastern road which had advanced rates. “I think all the railroads of the coun try today have received a check they will not get over for many, many years,” he said. Vice President A. L. Mohler, of the Union Pacific tonight expressed the be lief that the people in the aggressive campaign against railroads were laying a foundation for a tremendous panic. Mr. Mohier said the abandonment of Union Pacific extension work was due to inability to make loans in New York and that the policy of retrenchment was followed by the road in self-de fense and in no wise as retalation. The top of a moving train of cars is , a queer place to make an arrest, but • un jf° rms by April 15th. 1 this is what Bicycle Officer Mosely did yesterday. Word had been received at the po lice station that a negro named Ed Sears had cut his wife fatally at Elizabeth Whitehead’s house in Fitz gerald alley, and that Ed was running away. Officer Jackson heard of the affair and was looking for the man while Officer Mosely was wheeling it to the railroad yards where he had heard the man had gone. Arriving at the Central Railroad yard, the officer saw his man on top of a freight train that had been made up to leave Macon.

It Is announced from Washington that for the purpose of giving effect to the provision recently made for the establishment of a division of inform ation in the National Bureau of Immi gration, Congress will be asked to ap propriate $100,000, and that this divis ion of information looks to the promo tion of "a beneficial distribution of aliens admitted into the United States among the several States and Territo ries desiring immigration.” The proper and safe province ot the National Gov ernment in the matter of Immigration is to save the oountry from an influx of immigrants held to be undesirable, with the undesirability so clearly de fined by law as to leave no possible opening for administrative Interpreta tion, and the Government’s activities should cease at the point where the Immigrants are admitted to the coun try. Any plan to permit the National Government to put Its finger in the pie of the distribution of immigrants throughout the country is full of pos sibilities of evil to the country, espe cially if the Bureau of Immigration may at any time be inclined to make special and unique interpretation of the meaning of desirability of immi grants. As far as the Southern States are concerned with this question, the Manufacturers’ Record can only repeat its frequently reiterated suggestion that the safe and sure and desirable plan of immigration is that directed preferably by State authorities or, in the absence of a State immigration agency of any kind, by business-like organizations on State lines of busi ness men going about the work of se curing immigrants as they would go about enlarging their individual under takings.

In his affidavit Nippert swears that in last September, while he and Judge Dunne and Charles Leonard were spending a vacation in Plumas County, during a conversation Judge Dunne denounced Ruef and Schmitz as grafters. Dr. Patek, in his affidavit, swears that the remarks attributed by Nippert to Dunne were not made by the latter, but by Nippert himself. He further affirms that “On the contrary Judge Dunne made no statement that any grafting was going on and made no statement at all as to his regard or lack of regard for Abraham Ruef or Mayor Schmitz or denounced them, or even mentioned their names; and during this conversation no one ex cept Nippert expressed any bias for or against Ruef and the Mayor, and that not even he or Nippert called the Mayor by name.” Judge Dunne’s affidavit Is a categorical denial of all charges of bias made against him in the affidavits of Ruef and Nippert. Judge Dunne, among other things, de clared that he has “Never taken an active interest in politics, either in opposition to Ruef or otherwise.” Judge Dunne ordered the empanelment of the Ruef Jury to be begun. Three names had been called when the proceed ings came to a sudden stop. It was found that one talesman had been tempo rarily excused by the court. The de fense objected to the drawing of any further names from the jury box until the absent talesman shall be present. Judge Dunne then adjourned court until Monday. est man in Macon today.
