The reason assigned for this refusal is the great love of the czare- witch for his mistress, a most beautiful Jewess, who seems to have so great hold upon him that for the sake of keeping her he has offered to renounce his right of succession to the throne.

But the czar will not permit this, not approving of it for family reasons. At the same time, the czar fears for the welfare of Russia, and perhaps for the peace of Europe if a icgency is necessary. These worries, Professor Leydeu asserts, constitute the greatest feature of the czar's case. Plot to Kill.

prominent diplomat, "for many years connected with the state department, has received from Chang Yen Poo, the ex-Chinese' minister to the United States, who is now the senior member of the board at Pekin (Tsung Li Yamen, which corresponds to the foreign office in other countries), a letter which gives the first authorized and explicit statement of the Chiue.se version of the causes which brought about the present war between China and Japan. He write that in June last rebellious riots broke out in southern Cores, which country, being tributary to his government, sought military Accordingly 1,500 troops were sent to Ya Shan, about 70 miles from the Coreau capital. On hearing of this, Japan sent large forces, took possession of the Coreau capital and fortified themselves. The rioters dispersed upon arrival of troops at Ya Shan, and the imperial government was ready to withdraw when Japan, contrary to treaty agreements, insisted on permanently stationing military force 1 The British mir iter interposed when things began to look dangerous and urged both sides to withdraw. China was willing, but Japan would not listen to reason.

The ex-minister writes that the fact that but 1,500 troops were sent to Corea is evidence that no advantage was sought. Reinforcements were only sent after Japan continued to increase her forces. Chang Yen Poo is certain that the world will be convinced of the justice of China's cause when it knows these truths and asks that his letter be given wide circulation in America.

W. How- jird, of the A. H. who next to President Debs has been the most aggressive enemy the railroads have ever had, was robbed of a pocket-book containing about forty annual passes on the largest railway systems in the country while taking a ride on the electric line. Along with Mr.

Howard on that unfortunate little journey was Eugene Y. Debs himself. Mr. Debs, however, escaped loss. The car was crowded wifh passengers at the time and Mr.

Howard says, in describing his loss, that his attention was attracted by the remarkable action of a ungainly-looking who stepped from one end of the platform to the other, raising his leg very high in the air each time. Several passengers were robbed at the same time. Mr. Howard's pocket-book contained no money but he says he would rather have lost!) large sum than his cherished passes, which statement nobody seems inclined to doubt. This afternoon his name appears in an advertisement offering a reward for the return of his pocketbook, and directing the thief to bring it to the A.
