The idea of most Italian emigrants, says the immigration corrmissioncr, is to accumulate something Tte'a fortune in the States and return with it to Italy. The intimacy of the home connection is shown by the exhibit of the Bank of Naples, which, having advertised that sort of business as its specialty, has more than 183,000 accounts opened by Italian emigrants in the United States and placed to their credit during the fiscal year just clos?d more than $500,000.

CZAR ENDS DOUri

Russian Ruler Peremptorily Dissolves Parliament. NATION NEAR TO WAR Great Empire iNow Seems oo the Verge of Bloody Revolution. Mcholns Invite Strife by Surrender U Policy of Grand DnUes Member of the DlnbanUetl Domua Flee to Ylborff, Finland, Where Parliament Assembles- and Flau Rebellion Troop Are Massed at Danger Points and 3Iar(Ial Lair I In Force. Russia's first experiment in parliamentary frovernrhent came to an ignominious end Saturday night with the promulgation of two imperial ukases, the first dissolving the present parliament and providing for the convocation of its successor on March o, 1907, more than six months hence, and the sec J proclaiming the capital of Russia .til tho surrounding province to be in a state of extraordinary security, wblc'J 1 only lnflniteslmally different from 1 to xiciiolas ii. full martial law. This measure of safety In to provide fjr the outbursts which v.ndobutedly will be provoked by this daring measure. It is now but a step to dictatorship. A large part of the Province of Kiev, whore armed uprisings are expected in consequence of the dissolution of parliament, was plavcnl under martial law. Tho Kmperor has surrendered completely to the grand dukes. For hour5 Saturday night at Peterhof he con ferreil with General TrepofT, "the most hated man in Russia," and the ,itterest of the ministers. When the conference ended Nicholas had full? made np his mind to seize the bull by the horns and plunge the country into cor. TRErorr. Woodshed. All the severities and brutalities which have characterized the rule of the czars In the past will be again brought Into play, it is expected. Thousands of revolutionists will be cast Into prison, hundreds of them sent into dungeons and to the mines of Siteria to die, and hundreds of others summarily executed. With two pithy but momentous orders which werepromulgatel at 3 o'clock Sunday morning Emperor Nicholas by n strode of the pen set Russia bac kto where she stood two years'ago, In th full grip of autocracy and irresponsible government, wiping out for six months at least the whole structure of parliament, erected at such cost. The dflay In fixing the time for the new elections seems to Indicate a decision to change the present basir of suffrage to perhaps a basis of universal suffrage, with whlc the advisers of the Emperor hope to swaup the educated liberals, the socialists and the workman with the vast mass oi the peasantry. See Catherine: of Storm. The only uncertainty Is the ccmlng storm when and where It. will t4-eak. The advocates of the "mailed n.t" believe that by dissolving parliament and provoking a collision now they will find the revolutionary loaders not prepared for an uprising, as at Moscow, whereas further delay would merely give the revolutionists the time needed to organize and further disaffect the army. The dissolution of parliament Is the culmination of weeks of .strife, during which the Russian bureaucracy and court clique have stubbornly resisted the assembly's demand for wide am Telegraphic Brevities. Tba Sibley breaker at the Old Forge mine near Scranton, Pa., was destroyed by the loss being $75,000. A jermanent organization of the American group of the Interparliamentary Union has been effected with Representative jlartholdt of Missouri as president. Tb first case of yellow fever this year was reported at the Mississippi river quarantine station, ninety-seven miles below Kew Orleans. The patient is a Cuban sailor from Havana. Th young Sultan of Johore possesses one itreat peculiarity. Many years ago an atcident with a horse resulted in the loss vt nearly all h's teeth. These were replaced by teeth of' solid gold, in each of which a large diamond is placed. At a meeting of a executive council of the American Federation of Labor at Washington recently. Representative Hearst urged the labor leaders to make a demonstration of their strength politically, regardless of party lines, in view of the failure of Congress to take action on the anti-injunction and eight-hour bills. He thousht they would bo in the position of the Irish party in England, which holds the balance of power. The Florida and Georgia Bankers' Associations met in Atlanta, Ga., the address of welcome being by John Temple Graves and the responses by W. A. Blount ot Pensacola, Fla., and L. C. Hayne of A igusta, Ga. An address was given by Charles II. Treat, treasurer of the United States. Even as a child Empercr William was fond of the pomp and militarism. It la said that It was a source of great pleasure to the little prince that sentinels had to present arms to him, sf. much so that he sometimes did not wa'c. till he was fully dressed, but hastened down into court to receive the military honors which be loved so well.

nesty, the abolition of capital punlh-' ment In political cases and oth&r reforms on tin"! ground that thü revolutionists are u.slug terrorism as a political Weapon. An important factor in bringing affairs to the present acute stage is the refusal of the constitutional democratic leaders to take places hi a reorganized cabinet. The einfror, discouraged by his failure to form a coalition ministry and the distinctly revolutionary paths which parliament ha chosen, was persuaded, after much characteristic hesitation, to risk a final appeal from the assembly to the people and to order new elections. This course probably will strengthen the cause of the revolutionists, -.r at any rate bring about the chaotic conditions that will give them sin opioitunity for an effective demonstration. Donma Flees lo Finland. The dounia, in defiance of the ukase of Emperor Nicholas dissolving it, has fled to Finland. Members of the outlaw parliament, 200 strong, gathered la a hotel at Viborg and began the discussion of their plans for the future, which included the adoptlou of an address to the people of the country giving the liberal version of the conflict with the throne. A proclamation was drawn up saying that if the authorities prevent their fu-ther deliberations at that place It is their Intention to take a steamer and go out Into the Gulf of Finland, and If pursued by war ships to go to Sweden. It teems probable that Finland, In future Russian history, will lccohie synonymous with "the Tennis Ccurt" of the French revolution. With the ukase dissolving parliament the curtain rose upon possibly the last act In the great drama of the Russian revolution. The people and the government now stand face to face, and upon the army depends the immediate Issue. Even should the government, however, succeed in restraining an outbreak of the people, the victory probably will be only temporary and simply confine the steam for the final explosion.

Eufeehled for the last few years by the infirmities of old a?e, he passed away nfter a rapid final decline of several weeks. He was preparing with preat pleasure for the celebration of his ninetieth birthday on Auj. 4, an event which was made memorable each year by the visits of the old residents of Lawrence and other intimate friends, to whom the a?ed fioancKr was always known as "Uncle Russell." "Everybody will be very muqh surprised to learn what I have done with my money," Mr. Sage said a year or more apo to an intimate friend, "but they will never learn until I am dead." Rumors that the $7r,000,000 or $100,000,000 which are the renerally accepted figures of the financier's fortune, is to be distributed mostly among charities could not be confirmed.

Slocum; Dr. Theodore Janeway of New York, Dr. Carl F. Schmuck of Lawrence and Rev. Robert G. Iitch.

The emperor was recently refused permission to take refuge in the American legation. The famous Russian novelist and reformer, Count Tolstoi, In an interview expressed disgust with the work of the douma. He complained that the proceedings show nothing new and that the parliament is slavishly imitating the west. He compares the douma to the provincial regions, where hats and gowns out of date in the cities are worn. The sjieeches are like phonographic reproductions of those in foreign parliaments. A course designed to fit teachers to conduct children's gardens is presented in the summer school' of the New York university. There are several gardens laid out for the use of pupils In and around New York City, but the authorities are at a loss to find men or women trained to conduct them. The phenomenal growth and success of this work In Philadelphia has led to an extension of school gardening hi many cities. The Duke of Devonshire possesses Claude Lorraine's "Book of Truth." It is worth six times as much as the "Mararin" Bible, the most valuable book in the British museum. The late duke refused an offer of $100,000 for it. i

TEXT OF DOUMA'S MANIFESTO.

"CitUen, Stand Up for Your Riant!" I the Hinein? Appeal. The address of the expiring doama to the Russian people Is unmistakably a call to arms. It goes no further openly than to advise tho.ieople to withhold money and soldiers from the government, but between the lines is to be seen the threat of revolution. The following is the text of the parliamentary manifesto adopted at the meeting helJ at Viborg: To the People from Their Popular Representatives Citizens of All .Russia: Parliament has been dissolved by ukase of July 111. You elected us as your representatives and instructed us . to fight for our country and freedom. In execution of your instructions and our duty, we drew up laws in order to insure freedom to the people. We demanded the removal of irresponsible ministers who were infringing the laws with impunity and oppressing freedom. First of all, however, we wanted to bring out a law respecting the distribution of land to working ieasants and involving the assignment, to this end, of crown appanages, monasteries and lands belonging to the clergy, and compulsory expropriation of private estates. The government held such a law to be inadmissible, and upon parliament once more crjently putting forward its resolution regarding compulsory expropriation parliament was dissolved. Tlje government promises to convoke a new parliament seven months hence. Russia must remain without popular representation for seven whole months, at a time when the people are standing en ths brink of ruin, and industry and com--Jierce are uudennined, when the who5e country is seething with unrest and whea the ministry has definitely shown its lacapacity to do justice to popular needs. For seven months the government will act arbitrarily and will fight against "the popular movement in order to obtain a pliable, subservient parliament. Should it succeed, however, in completely suppressing the popular movement, th- govxl he SIX PERSONS WERE KILLED. eminent will convoke no parliament at all. Citizens, stand up for your trampled" on rights, for popular representation, and for an imperial iiarliamcnt. Russia must not remain" a day without popular representation. You posse the means of acquiring it. The government has, without the asscut of the popular representatives, no right to collect taxes from the icople nor to summon the people to military service. Therefore, you are now the government. The dissolved parliament was justified in giving neither money u.r soldiers. Should the government, however, contract loans in order to procure funds, such loans will be invalid without the consent of the popular representatives. The Russian people will never acknowledge them and will not be called upen to pay them. "Accordingly, until a popular representative parliament is summoned do not give a kopeck to the throne or a soldier to the army. Be steadfast in your refusal. No power can resist the united, inflexible will of the people. Citizens, in this obligatory and unavoidable struggle your representatives will be with you. French justice is getting its second sight. Unrest in Russia is becoming an everyday affair. The chorus girls keep the New York courts pretty busy. Our old friend, Lige Dowie, seems to be lost in the bushes. The iceman is certainly cutting a great deal of ice in the courts these days. As for the Ice Trust, it has been weighed in the balance and found wanting. Other folks can't see what there is in Central America worth fighting over. The trust busters seem to have laid aside the muck rake for the ice p'ek. Those Pittsburg divorce cases are so dirty that even the muck-rake hesitates to dip in. Cincinnati has indicted the members of its Laundry Trust, and U preparing to clean them up. Save your money and tmy a Tanama canal bond. They - are said to be at pretty as pictures. ' By the time some of the Ice Trust fellows are tried the lump will have done considerable melting. How it must add to Dowie's sorrow te think that he missed catching Lyman J. Gage in his dip-net. A Pittsburg bulldog has swallowed $19.73 in money. Yet some people contend there Is no money in dogs. ' Some consolation in the thought of the mosquito-bitten, that you can now get armor plate cheaper by $74 a ton. Those $10,000 fines don't hurt the railroads much, but it makes them sit up end take notice that there's a law against rebates. India has 2591,930 widows. Men must be in as much demand there as they are at the Adamlcss American summer resorts. A Londoner has paid $13,000 for some old pre-Shakspearean plays. But that'a nothing to what "Florodora" cost White end Thaw. Mrs. Cassie Chadwick pleads for a simple little Paris gown, with hat to match. S'i doesn't like the prison's summer styles in stripes. The actress who does not get called as a witness in the Thaw case is not living up to her opportunities. That Kentucky murder case is again revealing the availability of the witness stand as a place to propagate fiction. Upton Sincair is now reported to be muck-raking in Tittsburg. He ought to find something in that town to soot him. Ex-Senator Burton wTll now go away back and sit down with "Cassie" Chadwick, Jimmy Hyde and Carrie Nation In the has-been reservation. It is evident that if the Czar is going to dismiss the Douraa he will have to speak up in pretty loud tones or tie Dousa will not fcetr fcio.

Trade, industrial, and crop reports generally continue highly optimistic. Ill Ycrk. Clearance sales enliven retail demand, wholesale trade for seasonable good3 is naturally quiet, but excellent grain crop reports stimulate fall orders, which are in advance of v. year ago, with rather less than .usual evidences of summer quietness. Reports as to July trade all point to gains over a, year ago. Building continues very active and reports as to Iron and steel are 'almost' unanimous In showing larger current sales and taking th;tn were looked for, favorable crop reports apparently having dispelled some uncertainties visible a. little while ago.
