The word "disgrace" Is written in large letters in the laconic imperial order recalling Kouropatkin. It con­ tains not a single word* of praise and also disposes of the rumor that Kouro­ patkin had asked to be relieved. The Russian military annals Contain no more bitter imperial rebuke. While it was known that the war council had already decided to supplant tne commander-in-chief after the Mukden disaster, the decision to confer the task of saving the remainder of the army on Linevitch in the very midst of its flight, although bruited last night, came as a surprise. It trans­ pires that Emperor Nicholas, upon the advice of Gen, Dragomiroff and War Minister Sakharoff, determined that the step was necessary when it became apparent that Kouropatkin while con­ centrating for a stand at Tie pass seemed unaware that the Japanese had worked around westward again, and practically allowed himself to be sur­ prised. Old reports brought by Gen. Grip- penberg regarding Kouropatkin's fall­ ing mentally also had influence. Un­ der the circumstances therefore it was considered imperative in view of the exceedingly perilous position of the army to turn over its command to ^inevlt.ch, who alone had been1 able to bring off his army in order after the battle of Mukden. His record dur­ ing the Chinese war had also demon­ strated his capacity as a commander. Kouropatkin will return to St. Peters­ burg forthwith. Linevitch in Command. Deeided anxiety is felt here regard­ ing the fate of the army in Manchuria under its new commander. The only dispatches from the front are the brief announcements that Gen. Linevitch had assumed command and that Gen. Kouropatkin was departing' for St. Petersburg, which disposes of a rumor that the latter had committed suicide. No pause in the Japanese advance is probable for some time. The Rus­ sians are iosing heavily in the rear guard actions and Japanese columns are reported to be pushing northward as rapidly as possible, to complete the envelopment of the Russian forces. Gen. Kawamura presumably is most severe critic, end 1il« own subordinates were jealous apd grudgingly obedient. Many epigrams about Gen. Kouropatkin's shortcom­ ings are being attributed to Gen. Dragomiroff, and the supersession of the former at Buch a critical moment is directly attributed to Dragomiroff's advice. Gen. Linevitch Is distinctly a line officer, with a long record as a fight­ er. He is almost as cordially disliked by the general staff as his predeces­ sor, and there also is bad blood be­ tween Kouropatkin and Linevitch dat­ ing from a personal quarrel in the days when Kouropatkin was com­ mander of the, trans-Baikal army, which led Linevitch to demand sat­ isfaction. Kouropatkin assumed- the position that he could not fight an of­ ficer of inferior rank. The succes­ sion ot this officer •will naturally In­ crease " Gen. Kouropatkin's^ discomfit­ ure. < Lieut. Gen. Linevitch, the new com­ mander of the Russian land and sea forces in the far East, is In the Sixty- sixth year of his age. He was fight­ ing in the Caucasus when he was 21, took part in the Russo-Turkish war of 1877-78, and has since then taken part in all of Russia's Asiatic cam­ paigns. Linevitch was also promi­ nent in the relief of the legations at Pelrin. Even In the face of the possibility of the complete loss of the army and the admitted fact that Vladivostok is already possibly lost, the emperor still shows no signs of yielding. Prepara­ tions for continuing the war on a larger 6cale than ever are proceed­ ing. . . The dictum has gone forth that an­ other army of 450,000 men is to be dispatched to the far East, and In or­ der to avoid delay It has been decid­ ed, instead of sending only reserve men, to form new armies largely of regular units, leaving the reserves to replace the regulars In garrison duty at home. A division of the imperial guard will be sent to the front. Separate armies are to be organ­ ized under Gens. Qrodekoff, Gripen- berg and Kamaroff. Even in the most SHOWING RU88IAN LOS8E8 OF TERRITORY DURING PRESENT WAR hajbbi VLAOlVtW VLAD1VO UKWHJ (First map shows in shaded portions the territory which Russia either dominated by influence or held in actual possession at the outbreak of the war. Second map shows in white the territory wrested from Russia by Ja­ pan up to the present time.) pressing northward through the moun­ tains eastward, ready to swoop down: Generals Nogl and Oku are on the west of the Russian forces, the whole line of the railroad is threatened, if not already cut, and Chinese bandits are even reported to be in the rear of Harbin. A consummation of the Muk­ den disaster is feared. Napolfon's plight in the retreat from Moscow, with Kutusoff's Cossacks harassing the starving, freezing Frenchmen, was hardly as bad or dangerous. The war office greatly fears that more of the siege and field guns which Kouropatkin managed to save at Mukden have been sacrificed in the hurried flight from Tie pa^s. The question of ammunition and food is also vital, as it is known that the Russians were compelled to burn fur­ ther stores at Tie pass, where the commissariat was only beginning to feed the half famished troops when the new retreat was ordered. Gen. Linevitch, however, will have a considerable accession of fresh troops, the fourth European corps being now at Harbin and departing southward. Military officials at St. Petersburg de­ clare that there are now 268,000 men at Gen. Linevitch's disposal in Man­ churia, and it is believed that this force will be sufficient to cau3°. the Japanese to exercise greater caution in their pursuit. Although Gen. Kouropatkin's down­ fall was inevitable from a military standpoint, it arouses sympathy in circles familiar with the long cam­ paign that haB been waged against him by the general staff. Gen. Sak- haroff, the minister of war, was his open enemy, and Gen. Dragomiroff his Sentence for Poisoners. Sandusky, Ohio, dispatch: Charles McCauley, Indicted with Mrs. Anna Strickfaden for attempting to poison the latter's husband, pleaded guilty. Judge Reed sentenced them each to the penitentiary for ten years. optimistic quarters, however, it is realized that a general mobilization is likely to be accompanied by wide­ spread disordes#. t The war council, it is also under­ stood, has definitely decided that Vice Admiral Rojestvensky shall continue his voyage and give battle to the Jap­ anese in the forlorn hope of wrest­ ing control of the sea from Admiral Togo. . In the meantime the completely disheartened ranks of those who are crying for peace are growing, the strangest convert being Prince Mest- chersky, who, as shown by his article in the Grashdanin, has become sud­ denly a zealous advocate of reform, declaring that tp make an end of the war would not require more heroism than to conclude peace after victory.' He thanks God for sending defeat in­ stead of victory; which, he says, would only cover with laurels the gap­ ing wounds and miseries of the pov­ erty stricken people and the "badly fed and badly clothed but heroic sol­ diers, justified robbers of a peaceful country." The "glorified though faithless serv­ ants of the emperor" "are exhorted to penitence after the present trials, and are urged to "give rebirth to hon­ or and duty." Big Fire in Pittsburg.

Nearly everybody eats sul­ phate of copper about once a week, but Dr. Wiley's hoarders had it three times a day.: Eat Coal Tar Dye. The new squad will begin a diet of foods which have been colored with dyes made from derivatives ot coal tar. Many kinds of medicines, espe­ cially those which are given for grip and insomnia, are derivatives of coal tar, but one layman at least is will­ ing to confess that he didn't know he was getting coal tar dally In butter, jam, marmalade and half a dozen oth­ er delectables. ' The golden yellow that is Imparted to butter by something that comes out of coal tar can be compared only, so it is said, to the tint of the marigold. The ratural color of the orange loses something when it is turned into mar­ malade, but with coal tar dye the canned sweet is made to look as though the orange had not been an hour off the tree. When the squad gets through Its coal tar bill of fare it is to be pt!* on a course of sugar substitutes. Vari­ ous things are used to take the place of the cane and beet root products. The poison squad will have a short, sweet season of it while eating these sugar substitutes, for saccharines pall quickly on the appetite, and the best stomach will not stand for too mucb treacle and taffy. POISON,SQUAD READY TO START Employes of the Department Will Be Fed on Coal Tar Products and Sub­ stitutes for Sugar to Test Effect of Coloring Matter. Washington dispatch: A new food inspection bureau will be established by the government in Chicago about the middle of June and' Will begin its work about July 1. Similar bureaus will be opened about the same tipe in Boston, Philadelphia and New Orleans. * The agents of the government In Chicago will analyze samples of all kinds of imported products--wines, canned vegetables, preserves, soups, sausages and other things to eat and drink which come flrom abroad. The work will be carried cn under the food inspection law of the United States, and the working'forces will! be sent from Washington. Congress Allows Fund*|. At the present time there are only two food inspection bureaus in the country outside of Washington--in New York and San Francisco--apart from the stations established for the. inspection and supervision of live stock and live stock products. It was found that the inspecting forces of San Francisco and New York were not able to examine one-tenth of the food products which Dr, Wiley be­ lieved should be exalnfhed, and so congress was asked for an additional appropriation, to be applied to the agricultural department fund. The money was forthcoming after a light with an economically Inclined con­ gress. Jkilts Pure Food Bill. There is no question about Dr. Wiley's intention to carry out his battle against what he considers im­ pure foods to the last ditch. The sen­ ate killed the pure food law by inat­ tention-and" would not allow any out­ side persons to attempt to save its life. There was any amount of influ­ ence brought to bear to prevent the passage of the pure food law, and it was successful. It seems to be the belief of the bureau of chemistry that if it can turn out a few more reports about dyes, boracic acid and sulphate of copper and a few other things which go into food the people will in­ sist that they be fed on jam and peas that are jam and peas, with no beau- tifiers thrown in. Poison Squad to Resume. Dr. Wiley's "poison squad" has Iwd a rest of four months and April 1 It will begin its poison-eating again. It will not be the same old squad. The members of the former squad, how­ ever, did not die, but most of them got married, with digestions fortified against any kind of experimental cook­ ing on the part of their wives. This fs the third year of poison- eating for the sake of other people's stomachs by the men of the agricul­ tural department. The candidates for poison-eating are all healthy speci­ mens of manhood, and the chief will see to it that no man gets an over­ dose. Previous experiments were with |ood treated with boracic acid and with other food treated with col­ oring matter in the form of sulphate Lad Ends His Life. Tip Top, W.

Senator Teller introduced a resolu­ tion of Inquiry, asking the State De­ partment for information concerning relations with the Dominican govern­ ment between July 1, 1904, aifd March 1, 1905. Senator Cullom objected to the reading of the resolution, declar­ ing the matter pertained to executive session. "The senator cannot take me off the floor," said Senator Teller, warm­ ly. He insisted that his resolution be read. The resolution directed the state department to send to the sen­ ate copies of instructions given to Commander Dillingham and Minister Dawson regarding Dominican affairs, and all communications relating to the treaty. The senate then went into executive session until adjournment. BANDS OF 8TEEL. To Build Mammoth Hospital.

MABST0B AS GREAT AS MORTAL 0AN STAND. For SIi Months He Could Not Turn la Bed--He Tells of a Remedy Which UatGivcn Perfect Relief. The case of Mr. Marston shows that sciatica can be cured, aud no one afflicted by it should allow himself to be dis­ heartened. He was first stricken about a year ago, aud for six mouths he suffered pain which he thinks the most intense that any man could possibly stand, r Asked about the details of his remark­ able recovery, Mr. Marston gave the fol--. lowing account: " I was attacked by a numbness or dull feeling just back of niy right hip. I didn't know what the mat­ ter was, but thought it was simply a stiffness that would wear away in a Bhort time. It didn't, however, and soon the pain became so very bad that every step was torture for me. When I finally succeeded in getting home, it was just as much as I could do to reach mjr room and get to bed. --- "The doctor was sent for, and when ha had examined me he said I had sciatica. He prescribed for me, and advised me not to try to leave my bed. The advice was unnecessary for I couldn't get out of bed if I wanted to. It was impossible for me to turn from one side to the other, The moment I attempted to' move any part of my body, the pain became so ex­ cruciating that I would have to lie per­ fectly motionless. """"" " I suffered this torture for six months without getting any relief. Then I dia» charged the doctor, and on the advice of a friend I bought a box of Dr. Williams* Pink Pills and began to take them, three at a dose, three times a day. I was de­ termined to give them a thorough trial. "Two months after I began to use them I was able to leave my bed and walk abont the house, and a month later I was entirely cured aud able to go abont my work as usual. I think Dr. Williams* Pink Pills are the best medicine I ever used, and I heartily recommend them to anyone who suffers from sciatica."
