Former Russian Ruler Said to De Oil' for Siberia. Petrograd, Aug. 14.- The semi official Russian news agency an nounced lo-night that former IS tn pe ro r Nicholas and his family were removed to-day from the palace at Tsarskoc-Solo and that it was report ed they were being transported to Tobolsk, Siberia. In order to keep the departure se cret as long as possible the train was kept on a sidetrack, to which Nicho las titi ii lils party went. The public was unaware of the transfer until (ate last night. In order to keep up tho Helton that Nicholas was still lu the palace l ho guards were retained ?iround the park and special vigilance was shown in keeping (lie people away, Many rumors are curren I in re ga?? to the motives for the removal of the imperial family and as to its destination. The semi-official news agency says tho demands for Nicho las' transfer were due to fears ot the authorities thai an attempt would be made to liberate him in connection with a counter revolutionary move ment. A prevalent theory is that the discovery of the letter in which Gen. Gurko, former commander of the southwestern front, expressed loyalty lo the 'former ICmperor and of plots to effect the escape Of Nicholas, caus ed tho council of deputies to demand his removal to a safer place-either Tobolsk, Siberia, or Kostroma, which was the original seat of the Romanoff family. M. Nekrasoff said, however, that all stories that the removal was connected with the Gurko affair or with attempts to liberate Nicholas were untrue. .Tobolsk ls an out-of-the-way town of Western Siberia, far from the rail road and visited only by steamers which ply the Irtysh river. In former times it was an administrative center for exiles banished to Siberia by the Russian rulers. It ls a city of some thing more than 20,000 inhabitants. Tho climate ia extremely severe in winter. Nicholas Greatly Impressed. Nicholas was very depressed in ap pearance, but ox-ICmpross Alexandria, who was seen walking for the first time in months, seemed lively and pleased at the prospect of a change in surroundings. In view of the need for special precautions the guard be tween the palace and the railroad sta tion was not composed of any single unit, bul of delegations of eleven trusted men from each battalion of Ibo Tsarskoe-Selo garrisons. Nicho las appeared on the steps of the pal- I ace dressed in a colonel's uniform with a khaki blouse and no decora tions. He entered an automobile ac companied by Prince Dolgoroukoff and Count ?enckendorff, former court marshal, who thus far have shared Ins captivity. They were fol lowed by the former 13 m press Alexan dria, who was accompanied by Countess Naryshken, her close friend and former lady of the court ; all the four grand duchesses, with their maids of honor, and. dually by Alexis, tho former heir to the throne, at Whose side was tho gigantic sailor, Herc.*uko, tho protector of Alexis since Iiis birth, and his constant com ? anio,i.

Washington, Au?, 15.-Congres sional leaders were Informed by Sec retary Mc A doo that it would be neces sary for them to authorize al this time and tho winter session of Con gress an additional $9,000,000,000 for war expenditures to June 30th, HHS, including further loans to the allies Five billions in bonds already have been authorised and a $2,000, 000,000 war tax bill is pending now in the Senate. Within an hour after the Secretary had conferred with Representative Kitchen, chairman of the House ways and means committee, plans were un der way to raise the money. A meet ing of the ways aim means commit tee was called for August 25, and arrangements made for the House, j now taking three days' recess, to re sume its regular meetings on August 27 and expedite financial legislation. Issuance of between $3,000,000, 000 and $4,000,000,000 In bonds to meet new allied loans, authorization of an additional $000,000,000 in taxes to bo added to the bill before the Senate, probably will bo proposed by the committee and agreed to" by the House. No delay in either au thorization ls anticipated. The bond issue will be agreed to within a day, Mr. Kitchen predicted, and the $100, 000,00(1 probably will he added to the revenue bill in conference, with the approval of tho House. The plan ls to have the remainder of tho $9,000,000,000 authorized at j the next session of Congress, begin ning In December. Whether lt will 1 be raised by bonds or additional tax j atlon or in what proportion of both, ' is undecided. J Announcement that authorization , of a new bond issue to meet an allied j loan was desired came as a surprise to most of the Congressional leaders. ? They thought the conference the See j rotary sought with Mr. Kitchen was ; for the purpose of discussing raising ! possibly an additional $1.000,000,000 j or $2,OOO,000,ooo for emergency do , mesttc means. They planned lo au ' thorize lt, go home, and raise the re maining $1,000,000,000 or $5,000, 000,000 it was estimated the war would cost this fiscal year at the next session. 1'RIO 10 OP CHARO IO.
