Jan 29. --lu a letter to the Hartford Post today George Austin Bowen. of Woodatot-k. chairman of the Farmers' Association. says: “The attempt to make it appear that I am trying to array the small towns agolnat the cities has its origin in the ambl~ tions of stheming politicians and has no foundation in fact. it would be folly in this little state to attempt such an alignment. even if it were thought possible. The Farmers“ Association Is not in any sense against the centers of population. It is simply an organi- zation for mutuhl protection. It will use its influence to secure such legisla- tion as will be beneficial to the ruroi committees as such and to the rural inhabitants as such.

There were In the neighborhood of 100 such volunteers in this city and vicinity and If the case is won for them a con siderable sum of money will come this way. The men enlisted as United States volunteers and if they are cleaned as volunteers they are entitled under the law governing volunteers to two Inontha' pay more titan their time of service. This extra pay is given in plate of a bounty for the encourage- ment. of« volunteers in the time of the government‘s need. The war depart- ment claims that those men were in effect only short time volunteers and therefore do not. come under the class of volunteers and are thus entitled to draw the two months' extra pay. There has been one case go through both the court of claims and the an preme court and a second case has re-i cently been given a like decision In onei of the courts Some of the local vol untcers who are represented through attorneys in sec bring these claims have received notlce of the prospering of the trance and are told that there seems a prospect. of the war department's tracking down entirely in the matter and paying all the claims of this nature presented. These volunteers bavc also another claim. which has notc yet been brought into court and this is for travel pay. At the time they enlisted the old law was in force. This provided that all volunteers should receive a day's pay for ever". 20 miles traveled between vice and the place of their enlistment.

GRANTED PLENARY POWERS. Czar Plaeoo Mini-tors Over Local Of~ , fleialo of Taer. ST, PETERSBURG. Jan. 29.—The Caar has granted Minister of the ln- terior Von Plehve and the governor of the province of Tsar special plenary powers over the local ofiieiuls of her, ‘in consequence of the latter's subver sire tendencies. The government has been aware for some time that the ad ministration of Taer was showing in various ways sympathy with the oppo- nents of the existing order of things. Recently the local authorities appoint- ed teachers in the. national schools who took advantage of their position to stir up agitation against the government and religion. This was the Immediate cause for granting the plenary powers. which permit the minister and the gov- ernor to make appointments to district ofilws which have been hitherto been elective. to prohibit meetings. to expel obnoxious persons, to dismiss ofilcials considered dengcrous to public peace ect. l ....._._ ....

FAR EAU‘TERN SITUATION. Ruooia Will Not Answer Until Fight Danger to Put. PARIS, Jan. 29.—lt is understood that the conferences between Foreign Minister hamsdorli and M. Kurino, the Japanese minister at St. Petersburg. have permitted the latter to advise his government concerning the position Russia is likely to take in her forth- coming answer but the officials here say this was merely an intermediary step towards adjusting the remaining differences, as the answer is subject to change until odlciaily communicated. It is further said that Russia will not answer until she feels reasonably as- sured that her answer will not have the effect of precipitating heatilitles. The officials here are gratified at in apparently authoritative statement that Japan does not intend to fortify the Straits of Cores. They say it win remove one of the main obstac.les as the moat recent negotiations showed that Russia was unalterabiy opposed to the creation of any condition in Korea which would lead to closing that out- let from the Sea of Japan. A strong intimation has been made that Lit‘ maritime nations of Europe and the [lulled States would have taken up the declaration unless this declaration had been made. mu...» BIO PIRI AT UNIONVILLE.

No ex- planation of the origin of the fire is given. It started apparently in an air shaft between the outside wall and the lining of the building near the room. The flames were drawn rapidly through the walls and quickly enve‘ loped the whole building. A hydrant service furnishes the village with fire protection and with this the volunteer fire fighters managed to arest the pro- gress of the blaze after all except the lower stories had been practically cou- named The building was an old one. and was for mcrh ow nod and occupied by the Mecch ll: Hart Company. it was sold about the years ago to the l‘ Hpson Nut Company Three other buildings of snraller size. close to the cutlery building. were saved. Seventy five bands will be thrown out of work by the fire. ‘ GAB IGNITED IY SHOT. Caused Frightful Explosion in Pitta- burg Mint. PITTSBURG.
