( SHOT AT THE m i Bold Attempt to Assassinate The Russian Monarch iALUTING GUN RAINS GRAPE SHOT >nly High Aim and Weak, Scattering Charge Prevented a Disastrous Conclusion to the Ceremony cf Blessing the Waters of the Neva. St. Petersburg, By Cable.?The fesIval of the Epiphany, the blessing of he waters, had just concluded at 1 ('clock Thursday afternoon, when similtaneously with the salute fired from he St. Peter and St. Paul fortress a ain of bullets swept over the little hapel built over the frozen Neva in ront of the winter palace, where Emjeror Nicholas and every member of he RomanofT family were participatng in the service. The missies went ligh, entering windows of the splendid ow of salons along the water front, rom which the Empress, the ladies >f the court and the members of the liplomatic corps and high dignitaries if the State, army and navy were witlesslng the glittering spectacle below, fortunately the bullets passed over hAheads of all present, striking the ipAsite wall and clattering down on 0 parquetted floor of the white saon. Everybody had been laboring unler a more or less nervous strain beause of the strike situation, and the vindows were hastily vacated, and the [reatest excitement reigned within he palace. Lieutenant Fulton, chief ?f police of St. Petersburg, himself >icked up a missle in the white salon, t was the size of a bird's egg. The lolice chief was immediately surounded by officers cf the guards, who examined the bullet and expressed the (pinion that it had come from a shraplel which might have been fired from he battery located on the bourse esilanade and which replied to the saute of the St. Peter and St. Paul forress, explaining that a gun might iave been charged with a loaded carridge by mistake. In the meantime there was no evl[ence outside of what had occurred. The crowds of people who formed (lack lines along the qu2ys, the palice bridge, the slcps cf the bourse, ,nd every other point of vantage in he white Arctic landscape did not bcray the slightest excitement. Neither iid the imperial party in the chapel lelow. Although the actual ceremony ?as ended, the Emperor remained ind accompanied the Metropolitan jnd clergy a& they circled the pavillion iround-the chapel to blecs the gorgeous standards of the famous guard egiments stationed there. Then the trocession moved back to the palace, md the original program was carried mt. The Emperor displayed splendid lerve. He did not show a trace of ;xcitement. He received the diplonats in his usual cordial, gentle manler, reviewed the guard regiments on ho square behind the palace, and subequcntly had luncheon served in the State dining room. Additional particulars show that the irapcror had a miraculous escape. There is uo doubt that the missies aine from a gun of the bourse batcry which was loaded with grape, not vita shrapnel. Soma cf the bullets ictually struck the little open chapel n which the Emperor was standing, :ut the staff off cne cf the ctrader 1s md fairly riddled the basement vinlows of the palace, killing a policeran outriglu and wounding an officer ;nd three marines.

W1TB OUR NATIONAL LAWAUiEIS The Senate and House Regularly at Work?What They are Doing. Would Tax Indian Lands. The consideration of the sta.ehood bill was continued iu the Senate and Mr. Stone spoke for two hours in opposition to it The proposed remuneration to American fur sealers who suffered losses because of their suppression also was debated at some length, but no action was taken on it. Mr. Stone proposed an amendment to the Statehood bill providing that all allotted lands shall be subject to taxation. He said the bill as it stands confers upon the Indians of Indian Territory the rights of citizens, while relieving thom nf the duties of citizen ship. Mr. Ballej took a similar view. The Senate adjourned. Swayne Case May Be Postponed. In view of the prospect of an early presentation to the Senate of the House's articles of impeachment of Judge Swayne. many Senators have been engaged today in considering that question, and Senator Piatt, of Connecticut, chairman of the special committee acting for the Senate, has taken a leading part in the work. Some of the Senators, especially Messrs. Frye and Hale, of Maine, advanced the opinion that the case might be postponed until the best session, but, after an exhaustive examination of precedents and consideration of the case, Mr. Piatt announced his inability to agree with them. He said he did not believe that, out of justice to Judge Swayne, the inquiry should be postponed for any length of time after it is brought to the attention cf the Senate, and he doubted whether, if this point was eliminated, the Senate could make the postponment. It might be competent, he thought, to defer trial after organising the senatorial court, but if that course should be decided upon, the preseiit Congress would terminate, new men would come in, and it would be necessary to reorganize the court at the beginning of the next session. For these and other reasons, he concluded that there is no other way open than to proceed immediately with the consideration of the case. Senator Spooner and other senatorial lawyers concurred in this ODin ion. Those who advocated postponement take the ground that, as the Senate is a continuing body, it is competent for it to defer action until next session, if It so desires. They also say that, with only six weeks of the session left, it will be extremely difficult for the Senate to enter upon the Swayne trial, and also continue its consideration of legislative business. Speaker Cannon did not name the committee to present the articles of the House, having received information from Senators that they desired to have the matter delayed. There is a prece: dent for delay in presenting articles iii impeachment cases until the day before j the expiration of the terms, which throws the trial into the next Congress. It rests with the House, however, to decide what cousse shall be pursued. Debate on the fhyayne impeachment case occupied the House until after 5 o'clock Monday. The arguments were ; exhaustive, dealing with many of the legal phases of the charges against ' Judge Swayne. The Senate resolution \ fixing Wednesday, February 8th. as the | time for counting the electorial vote j for President and Vice President, the , proceedings to take place in the hall : i of the House, was adopted. The Bur- ; ! lesnn resolution diirectina the Director ] ; of the Census to eolloef and publish i I additional statistics relating tcf cotton, i : was reported by Mr. Crumpacker. o! j Indiana; amended so as to provide that | I th? statistics of the consumption of j | cotton, the surplus of cotton held by j I the manufacturers and the quality of , cotton exported shall be summarized j i as of September 1st each year so as | ! to show the cotton production and con- | j sumption of the preceding year. Mr. j | Livingston, of Georgia, charged that : if corton reports were made at the i j time stated, that a break in cotton . prices would result upon each occa- i j sion that such reports were published. In most emphatic terms Mr. Madclox. [ , of Georgia, declared that cotton farmj ers shou!d?protect themselves by form- j j ing a trust and withholding reports j : from the government. Everybody, he j j saia. was in some sort of a trust ! against the fanner and that he must i fight the devil with fire. After some j further discussion, in which the reso- ! lution was favored by Mr. Williams, of Mississippi, the resolution was agreed to. ! _Thex executive, legislative and ; judicial appropriation bill was sent to ! conference with Messrs ' Bingham, of !

"We need no I American regiment, or any other regl- "I ment. We are all Americans who | have won our American citizenship." Hearty applause followed Mr. Degetau's conclusion. The amendment striking out the ap- A proprlation for the regiment was defeated. Mr. Humphrey declared the tianspcrt service was fotten and a rational disgrace. He declared it cost $1,500,000 more than if the service ? were performed by private shipping. ^ The House adjourned.
