Circulars Explaining7Dangers of
Returning to Native Lands
Issued
Washington March 5. In or-
der to reduce the chances of natur-
alized citizens involving them-
selves in trouble on returning to
their native land the State Depart-
ment has prepared a-series of cir-
culars telling naturalized citizens
exactly what they may expect if
they attempt to return to their
former homes.
The circular is different in the
case of each European country
which has shown a disposition to
hold its citizens to account when
they emigrate to the United Statea
and become naturalized. It is dis-
tinctly stated that the information
given in the uotice is believed to
be correct yet it is not to be con-
sidered as official as it relates to
the laws and regulations of a for-
eign country.
The Russian circular which is a
fair sample of the general ontliue
of each notifies the recipient that
under the -Russian law if he re-
turns to Russia after having be-
come a naturalized citizen of an-
other country without imperial
consent he is liable to deportation
to Siberia the loss of all civil
rights and perpetual banishment.
Even if he left Russia in his in-
fancy he-is liable to this punish-
ment upon return unless he obtain-
ed the Emperor's conseut to his
expatriation upon attaining the age
of 21 years.
Russians are liable to military
services between the ages of 21 and
43 years aud rio Russian above 15
years of age can ask permission to
expatriate himself uuless he has
acquitted his military obligations.
Russians Jews from America are
not allowed to enter Russia with-
out special permission and the
State Department cannot act as in-
termediary in obtaining this con-
sent. There is no treaty between
the United States and Russia de-
fining the siatns of American citi-
zens of Russian birth upon their
return to Russia.

i DANISH 'WEST INDIES.
United States Said To Have Ad-
dressed Rather Pointed Note
x ' To Denmark In the Prem-
ises. London March S. The United
States Government has addressed
a note to the' .Danish Government
almost threatening in tone says
the Copenhagen correspondent of
the Daily Mailj'to the effect that
if it will not permit any transfer
of the Danish West Indies to any
foreign power audthatin the event
of Denmark refnsing to sell - the
United States will require that in-
ternational and maritime neutrality
shall be properly guaranteed and
the United States' sphere of in-
fluence be respected.

WAS PUBLISHED HERE FOR
"DIRTY DOG"
Is What They Are Calling1 Sen a'tor
Carter of Montana.
Washington March 5. After
consumiug with some outside aid
more than twelve hours of time
Sanator Tom Carter of Montana
succeeded in talking to death
the rivers and harbors bill.
The Montana senator made the
defeat of this bill the swan
song climax to his senatorial career
for two seasons: One was the
desire to get some advertisement
out of the busine&s andt the other
was undoubtedly the desire to
please some of the high officials of
the administration in the hope that
he himself may hereafter receive
more substantial benefits than those
which come from personal praise.
There seems to be little doubt
that the president Senator Hanna
and the other administration lead-
ers have all the time intended to
kill the rivers and harbors bill and
to havejt talked to death in the
expiring hours of the session was
the easiest way to accomplish this
end. Earlier in the session they
had given every assurance many of
the strongest republicans in the
senate and the house favored it for
they good reason that their imme-
diate constituents were among
those benefited and also of course
because many if not all of the
projects covered are in every way
legitimate.
Had the opponents of the.measure
made an open aud above board
fight they could not have accom-
plished the end they desired. But
by carrying the bill along under
fair promises right up to the close
of the session they found it au
easy matter to briug. about its
death. Senator Carter being ac-
complished as a longdistance talk-
er and being on the eve of the wind
up of his senatorial career was ex-
actly the right man to conduct- the
execution and he did it skillfully.
He has greatly incensed a large
number ot republican senators
some of whom took the pains today
to use very strong language tg. him
for his conduct. Senator Nelsou
of Minuesota was one of these
lu good plain English he called
the senator from Montana a "dirty
dog" for his conduct aud a good
many other expletives just as strong
were used by other senators though
not all of them to Senator Carter's
face.

MAY INVOLVE GOVERNMENTS.
Arrest of a Lumber Agent-is Being
Looked Into.
Pittsburg March 7. The Nation-
al Wholesale Lumber Dealers' as-
sociation today decided to take up
a-fightgof one of the members
that will likely involve govern-
ments of the United States and
Mexico. Some years ago W. B.
Mershon & Co. of Saginaw Mich.
had an agent arrested iu one of the
northern provinces of Mexico. The
agent gave bail in the sura of $3000.
It is said the man was a relative of
the governor of the province. That
happened two years ago and no in-
formation can be gotten by the
Saginaw firm .from its lawyer or
the Mexican authorities as to tire
disposition of the case.
A resolution was passed by the
lumber dealers to the effect that
the secretary aud the counsel of
the association present the ease to
the secretary of state at Washing-
ton asking that he take the matter
up with the proper authorities.
