CZAR WANTED TO FLEE.
WOULD HAVE LEFT RUSSIA AF?
TER RED SUNDAY.
The Grand Dukes Prevented His Do?
ing So by Calling His Attention
to OM Coronation Oath and
Block Peace Plans by Same
Means.
Manchester, England, April 6.-Ac?
cording to a London correspondent a
dispatch has been received stating
that the czar contemplated fleeing
from Russian after Red Sunday. TJfe
information, according to the corres?
pondent, is based on a letter to an En?
glish friend from one of the" principal
secretaries of the Russian foreign
ministry. The only way in which the
czar was persuaded to stay was by. a
chapter in the old royal coronation,
oath which is to the effect that a mon?
arch deserting his country in the hour
of trouble forfeits the titular headship
""of; the orthodox church and without
this leadership he can never again be
czar. i
The grand dukes who brought this
oath before the czar's notice have in?
terpreted the making of terms with
the . Japanese as tantamount to deser- ?
tion of the country on his majesty's j
part. !

BRAKEMAN KILLS CONDUCTOR.
Charles Oliver Struck With iron
by William Mickle and Skull
Crushed.
Special to The State.
Orangebmg, April 5.-Conductor
Charles Oliver of the Southern rail?
way freight which left Columbia for
Charleston at 8.25 o'clock this morn?
ing was struck and killed about 4
o'clock this afternoon by the brake?
man, William Mickle, at Stilton,
three miles above Orangeburg.
Mickle is a young white man about
21 years of ape and says bis home is
at Camden. The conductor is about
30 years of age, married and goes out
from Charleston.
Mickle has a stab in his left
shoulder a little over one inch in
depth, which was inflicted by Oliver
during the ^difficulty. Mickle says
that the conductor became provoked
with him in connection with his
efforts to remedy a hot box, which
had delayed the train and that the
conductor stabbed him without pro?
vocation. He says that he had noth?
ing whatever with which to defend
himsef from th* assault of the con?
ductor and that he retreated about the
length of the engine, then he picked
up from the ground an iron, between
one and two feet in length, and threw
it at the conductor, hitting him on
the head. The condcutor was killed
by this blow, his skull being crushed.
^Ehe fact of the killing was tele?
phoned here from Stilton, and Sheriff
Dukes, with a deputy and Chief of
Police Fisher started towards Stilton
to apprehend the slayer. A short
distance from Orangeburg they met
Mickle on his way to Oraogeburg on
foot to surrender to the sheriff.
Mickle started im radiately after the
altercation to walk to Orangeburg,
down the railroad track, to surrender
to the sheriff, and was informed after
he reached this city of the death of
the conductor. After he was taken to
the sheriff's office, the "wound in his
shoulder was dressed by Dr. Hydrick.
Mickle appears to regret very much
the death of the conductor^andseeming
ly feels deeply the result of the unfor?
tunate difficulty. Mickle has been run?
ning as brakeman over the Southern
for about two years, and says this was
only his second trip?with Oliver,
whom he had known for some time.
Oliver had been in the service of the
Southern for several years. The other
witness to the altercation between
Oliver and Mickle practically substan?
tiates the statements of Mickle.
The body of Oliver was brought to
Orangeburg this afternoon. The
freight train was also brought back
to Orangeburg and sidetracked to
await further orders. Coroner Rick?
enbacker was notified at once and he
was engaged all the afternoon in
holding the necessary inquest over the
body of the dead conductor.
PAY INCREASED.
Better Wages for A. C. L. Loco
i motive Engineers.
Florence, April 6.-By a recent con?
tract made with the locomotive engi?
neers on the Atlantic Coast Line,
there has been a change in the pay of
many of the engineers working for
that system. The new schedule,
which went into effect on April 1,
increases the mileage pay of both
freight and passenger engineers as
well as all switch enigneers.
. There are other changes in the mode
of. pay such as for overtime, for time
delayed on the road, etc, etc.
The new schedule was made upon
the request of the members of the
? rious divisions of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers that are
within the territory covered by the
Atlantic Coast Line, and it was don?
without the slightest friction on the
part of either the officials of the
Coast Line or the committee from
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi?
neers.
The Chagres River Problem.
New York, April 5.-Chief Engineer
John F. Wallace, of the Panama
Canal commission, first learned of his
appointment on the new commission
upon bis arrival here today on the
stpamer Finance from Colon.
Speaking of the difficulties of build?
ing the canal, Mr. Wallace said :
"It is surprising what wrong im?
presi?n prevail in this country about
the canal. The control of the Chagres
Biyer for intsance, has been much
misunderstood. The cost of this work
will be only 5 per cent, of the total
cost of building the canal. The dif?
ference in tide between the Pacific
and ?ribbean can be controlled by
tide .ocks, although this is not neo
esary with a sea level canal The tide
in the Pacific rises 10 feet higher and
falls 10 feet lower than it does in the
Caribbean The canal however, will
be 47 miles long and will take up
this difference We do not place locks
at Sandy Hook to control tide in the
Hudson, and that river is always nav?
igable. So will the caual be naviga?
ble at all times.
JUDGE SPEER ON PEONAGE.
Augusta, April 5.-The Federal

in the United States Court of Savanah

question, spoke of the men who are
condensed to the chain gang for viola?
tions of petty municipal ordinances,
and added: "For myself, Ido not
hesitate to declare that enforced labor
on a local chain gang, imposed under
such conditions, or for any offence not
amounting to crime, is involuntary
servitude and peonage, in the light of
the decision of the Supreme Court of
the United States, no matter what
the State law or municipal ordinances
on the subject may be.

A REMARKABLE CAREER.
Ex-Senator Stewart, Many Times
a Millionaire, is a Poor Man
in His Old Age.
Washington, April 6.-Former Sen?
ator William M. Stweart, of Nevada,
who retired from the Senate March
4th, after an almost continuons ser?
vice in the upper brance of Congress
for forty years, has gone back to Ne?
vada to open a law office and start life
anew.
Seventy-eight years old, and look?
ing like a patriarch, Stewart has gone
forth hopeful and in good spirits, be?
lieving that he may regain at least
one of the fortunes he has lost since
he first came to Washington.
Politics seldom develop such a figure
as Stewart Las been, and few careers
of such apparent brilliancy have end?
ed as his appears to have done.
For more than thirty years of his
active political life Stewart was many
times a millionaire. He was an ex
tensvie mine owner, not only in Ne?
vada, but in other Western States,
and Nevada was looked upon politi?
cally as Sewart's "pocket borrough,"
used by him to keep himself in the Uni?
ted States Senate for purposes of
amusement and profit, as the oppor?
tunities offered.
Twenty years ago Stewart was one
of the very rich men of the Senate.
He built the first of the palatial resi?
dences in the West End of Washing?
ton, in a locality now occupied entire?
ly by tbe homes of the very wealthy.
Stewart Castle, as the house was call?
ed, was for a long time one of the
show places of the city.
About this time he began investing
very heavily in Washington real
estate, and as the profits from that
form of investment had been very
high as the city developed, Stewart
conceived the idea of forcing develop?
ment in the direction of his own pro?
perty. The scheme did not work '
well, and his losses weir6 heavy.
Unfortunate mining speculation i
followed, and a few years ago it was
rumored about Washington that.Stew
arc was in embarassed ci rams tan ces.
About this time, as a member of
the Sedate Committee on the District
of Columbia, he became interested in
the subject of pure milk. He decided
to go into the milk business, and
bought a farm in Virginia which he
tried to mak* a model dairy farm.
He also established milk depots in
this city and bought wagons and horses
to deliver the product of his farm.
Ostensibly he did a splendid busi?
ness, but the milk he sold cost him
more than he could sell it for. With
the collapse of the dairy business the
last of Stewart's enormous fortune
disappeared.
That is why he ie now going back
to Nevada to practice law. He is an
authority upon mining law, and it is
not improbable that he will make
money.
gin spite of his advanced age, he is
still robust and hearty, and has pre?
served a pr eat deal of the strength
with which he started life more than
half a century ago with a pick and
shovel in the Western mines.
During his forty years' residence in
Washington Stewart has lived luxu?
riously, and his friends are wondering
how he will stand the privations of
life in the far West. At his age the
spectacle he now presents is one of
the most striking in the politics of
the last half century.
Thousands in Lettuce.
Lettuce shipments from this terri?
tory are now very heavy. It is esti?
mated that the consignments yester?
day were fully 5,000 baskets, there
having been several refrigerator car?
loads as well as two or three by express.
The prices continue fairly good, yes?
terday's quotations having been $2.25
to $3 per half - barrel basket A gentle?
man, who knew what he was talking
about and is not given to making wild
estimates, said last night that the let?
tuce crop for the next 30 days would
be worth a round $100,000 to this ter?
ritory.
Radishes and asparagus are also be
n g shipped now by Wilmington ftruck
ers. Radishes are bringing from $2 to
S3 per hundred bunches and asparagus
from $5 to $6 a dozen bunches.

The London Lancet give particulars
of an extraordinary case of multiple
personality. The patient is a girl be?
tween twelve and thirteen years of age
who has developed ten varieties of ab?
normal personality. She comes of
healthy parents and was herself
healthy in mind and body until she
was attacked with influenza. Then
the changes of personality manifested
themselves. Some were complete and
others incomplete, some sudden and
others gradual in appearence. In
some cases the patient was totally and
in all partially ignorant of her life
during other states. Acquirements
such as drawing and writing and also
the normal faculties were present in
certain states, but lost in others.
While in a blind condition she develop
the faculty of drawing with the aid of
touch alone, this sense being enor?
mously increased in delicacy.
