Publishers' Press Odessa, July 23. (1:30 P. M.) So far as this city is concerned not in the days of the general strike have conditions seemed quite so threatening as now, and unless something intervenes to quiet the workingmen, and their peasant allies, bloody conflicts must take place. ..The Prefect and General Kaulbars have done everything possible to quiet the malcontents during the last 36 hours, but as the moments go by, matters seem to become more and more Involved an their efforts are nullified by the attitude of the subordinates are seizing the occasion to cancel old scores and to attack all persons who have In the past Indicated by the President attitude that they were by means friends of "Loyalists." It is feared that a massacre of Jews Is Impending. - A number of the members of the "Bund" appealed to the commandant of the Cassacks, detailed for duty in the Jewish quarter, to protect them from any attack that might come". They were Informed that if they would organize ''loyal", processions and see that these traversed every , street In the central section of the city, all of the participants to wear photographic badges of the Czar and each detachment to be precceded by banners pledging the "loyalty" of the members of the Jewirh race, the Jews of the city would not he molested. Later a deputation of Jews called upon General Kaulbars and asked him to prevent the Cossacks attaching the people. He told them that he would vouch only for the good conduct of the regular troons and wound up his remarks by saying. "If a fresh attempt Is made on the lives of the Cossacks, aye even if one only la killed, Odessa will run knee deep In blood."

SAGE MONEY MAY GO' FOR CHARITY Such a Report Was Persist ently Circulated in Wall Street Yesterday. ESTATE OVER $80,000,000 IN SPITE OF THE GREAT FINANCIER'S DEATH, WORK IN HIS OFFICE WENT ON JUST AS USUAL FINANCIAL GIANT. Publishers' Press New York, July 23. Rumors that the bulk of the great fortune of RussellSage, estimated at between $80,000,000 and $100,000,000, will go to charity, were so persistently circulated in Wall Street today that they were looked upon as having a basis of fact. They were fathered by -men who were assocfated in business with Mr. Sage for many years. So far as could be ascertained, however, the idea that charity would be extensively remembered in the distribution of the Sage millions rests absolutely upon the well known charitable disposition of the widow. Mrs. Sage's charities, while unostentatious, have been wide and beneficial. It is believed that she interested her husband in many of the projects which she and Miss Helen Gould have helped. The generally accepted forecast of the Sage will was that Mrs. Sage will have the handling of a great sum to be expended in charitable donations, while the other executors will be empowered to carry on the business and attend to other bequests. On this point, Henry Clews, a friend of Mr. Sage of long standing, said today: "Mr. Sage's death removes the last of the old time financial giants. I think his estate will measure up to $75,000,000 and may even go as high as $100,000,000. This will be found to be well and carefully invested, as for many years he had been preparing for the end, and each year added to his financial wisdom and sagacity." Although the body of Mr. Sage reposed today in a darkened room at the Sage country home at Lawrence, L. I., business at his office in Nassau street went on as usual. The death of the financier made no difference in the conduct of his affairs. Devers Got 100 Days. Because it was his fifth offense within a year, I. Devers .who faced Judge Converse yesterday, on a charge of pubHc intoxication, drew an exceptionally severe prize. The fine was $23 and costs and to this was added sixty-five days in the county bastile. As the fine will be defaulted the imprisonment will total 100 days. Leading Lady Married.

EAGLES' CARNIVAL OPENED TO PUBLIC

Big Crowd Attends and Is Highly Pleased with All It Saw at Grounds. EVERY SHOW A MORAL ONE OPEN AIR ATTRACTIONS ARE PERHAPS BETTER THAN ANY SEEN WITH SIMILAR ATTRCTIONS IN FORMER SEASONS. Is it a success?" ' "Well I should say." This is the consensus of opinion of the majority of the twenty-five hundred people who attended the opening of the Eagles' Carnival last night. The shows were good, the crowd orderly and everything was done by the management to make the occasion a most enjoyable one, and the people caught the carnival spirit and cast all conventionalities aside and had a jolly good time. The parade, which opened the carni val last night was also a success, there being more than four hundred Eagles and other lodge members in the procession, headed by the carnival Italian band. The guards at the grounds are Eagles and they make a natty appearance In their pretty uni forms and add very much to the gay festivities. The Robinson Amusement Company is all that the press notices say it is. They have eleven shows not counting the free attractions and e.very 'one is as free from contaminating influences as the air. The shows are clean and strictly moral, nothing but what the most discriminating persons would enjoy and recommend to others. The crowd last night appreciated this as they were not afraid to attend any of the shows for fear of objectionable features. The Katzenjammer Kastle proved to be the most popular amuse ment center last night. The open air attractions are by far the best, attractions of the kind ever seen in Richmond, with carnival companies. The grounds will be open this afternoon. May Double Capacity. Winchester.

SPEKEHKIER ASKS HELP OF CARRIERS Unique Association Formed at Postoffice to Give People Better Service S ONE RESULT ALREADY NEW POSTMASTER THINKS THAT IN DEALING WITH SOME MATTERS AT OFFICE FIVE BRAINS ARE BETTER THAN ONE. The Richmond postoffice now has a carriers association. The new or ganization is the outcome of a sugestion made by Postmaster Spekenhier. As soon as he took his office Mr. Spekenhier saw that there would Ye always matters coming up at the office about which he wfould like to consult the carriers. He could not consult all the carriers each time so he asked them to name a committee. This they did as follows: E. A. Dick inson, Lawrence Handley, Herbert Garrett and Otto Sprong. Postmas ter Spekenhier was elected chairman of the committee. One of the first results of the new organization's work was redistricting the city Sunday. This body wll be conducted along Unpersonal lines and each member of It Is to. have as "much say" as anyother. The prime idea of it is to give the people better and more effective service and Mr. Spekenhier though that this was the only way in which to get good results. . In his own words he makes the plan plain: ""Five brains on work of this kind, are betterthan one and It seems that there are thirteen carriers w'to are, doing fifteen men's work and we want to get some good and effective plans for remedying this matter." The committee found the remedy with the result that four parts of as many districts have been dropped from the city postal routes. It is agreed by all that free action on the part of the committee will work wopders la the running ol this part ot the offic

CONDITIONS HERE ARE SATISFACTORY Thorough Inspection of Packin- nd Slaughter Houses Was Made Yesterday. GREAT CARE EXERCISED THE METHODS PURSUED BY LOCAL CONCERNS ARE IN MANY INSTANCES SUPERIOR TO OTHER FIRMS. Carrying out the orders of the board of health. Dr. T. Henry Davis secretary of the local board yesterday had an inspection made on local packing and slaughter houses. The Investigation was made by Thomas Gibbs, city inspector and John Seaman, sanitary inspector, and according to their report made last night the condition of the local houses is highly satisfactory. All the slaughtering houses of Richmond are ftuated on Liberty Ave. within the city limits, which Is against the law but as they are kept scrupulously clean no objection has as yet been filed as to their location. They are situated fifty feet above the river which affords an excellent drainage system. All the yards and slaughtering pens are paved with brick and are thoroughly cleaned each day. One of the most noticable features of many slaughtering houses over the country is the fact that all off-all is fed to hogs who are awaiting killing. This however is not the case with the Richmond houses as all this is hauled to the country dally, doing away with the obiectional odors so often found in a slaughter house district. All of the Richmond houses use city water and none of it is spared that things may be kept 'clean. Probably the greatest recommendation the slaughtering and packing houses of Richmond have is the fact that Liberty Ave., since the recent improvement by cement curbs and gutters, is a prominent driving thoroughfare and no objection has ever been found against the houses located on the street.

ARMY ON THE - MARCH United States Troops for the First Time Since the Civil War, Are All Moving. Washington, July 23. Without aV trading much attention, probably because the " movement is general and covers such a wide extent of territory, for the first time. since the civil war almost the entire "army of the United States is on the march. The troops are marching afoot and on horseback from the various posts and concentrating at the seven big maneuver camps where the regulars and the militiamen are to train together. Officers at headquarters are not surprised to learn that the men are suffering some from the hardships of the march; that many drop out from heat and fatigue and that there has been considerable loss of horseflesh. The fact Is, as stated by General Oliver, the acting secretary of war and himself a veteran, that the men have become "soft" in post life and it is one of the principal purposes of the marches to the Joint encampments to discover the weak spots and to season the soldiers by approximating war conditions as 'closely as possible.

ENDS

RESENT ATTACKS They Say That Criticism -of Prof. Zueblin is Doing Him . an Injustice. : OPINION OF SUPT.-JORDAN HE FEELS THAT SELECTION OP PROF. ZUEBLIN FOR TEACHERS INSTITUTE WILL BE PERFECTV LY SATISFACTORY. The many local friends and fc acquaintances of Prof. Charles Zueblln, of the University of Chicago, who is to lecture at the Chautauqua, are coming to the defense of him and his motives in regard to his lecture, "The Common Life Sex," which he gave a few day ago in Chicago and upon which some of the papers of that city made at tacks. The Chicago Record-Herald, also comes to the side of Prof. Zueblin In an editorial, reading in part: "The recent attacks upon the- lecture of Prof. Charles Zueblin, by some of the sensational papers of he city are fabrications. It was a plea for the economic and intellectual emancipation of woman." The paper also gave an epitome of his lecture as: "He criticised secrets betrothals and hasty marriages. He thinks that divorce is a very serious matter, and declared that society cannot afford to al low the breaking of the marriage tlea unless the seriousness of the allowbnee has been duly impressed by preliminary education." Several Richmond persons who have heard this same lecture say that although Prof. Zueblln treats of a delicate subject, his handling of It la marked by the most tactful expressions. They Bay his treatment of present day divorce and "Its causes is prompted by an earnest endeavor to educate the public to a stern realization of conditions which they must certainly see, but are almost afraid to recognize. " He is connected with the sociological department of the University ol Chicago and they assort that hfs investigations into this study have naturally brought him Into close contact with the real facts, which after deliberation and hard thought, he is trying to press upon the public that they may see and avoid. ; Superintendent . Jordan, , of th county schools, who secured , Prof. Zueblln for tho ; teachers' Institute, says that he feels the selection of I Zueblin will be eminently satisfac Mr. Joran feels that Prof. Zueblln is a man of advanced thought and that much of the complaint heard against the noted educator is the fault of hie auditors, who are not capable of comprehending his remarks.
