REVOLT IS CRUSHED.
ST. PETERSBURG. Dec. 20. (7:.'.0
P M.) The revolt at Moscow has
practically beef! crushed. A corres
pondent of the Associated Tress tele
phones at 7 o'clock tonight that the
Insurgents no longer have a chance
and that they are maklnjr a last
stand. He predicts that there will be
no- further heavy lighting. All the
troops, lie says, are now fighting on
the side of the governmeA.
ST. PETERSBURG. Dec 26.-01:53 P.
M.) Emperor Nicholas and Count. Wltte
received tonight a report from General
Doubasboff. Governor-General of Moscow,
suylng that the rcvplt there had failed:
that the military had the situation In
hand, and that whatever disaffection may
have existed anion? the troops had been
overcome by attacks on them with bombs
and revolvers, to which they had been
subjected from the windows and roofs of
houses, and which had so enraged them
that they could hardly be restrained.
Although the rebellion may flare up Im
mediately elsewhere, and although -there
is an indication of an upheaval at -Odessa,
If the attempt at armed 'rebellion it) yios
row should be crushed, the leadersiof the
'reds wijl .rcpclvc u blow from which
they cannot quickly recover.
Rally Liberals to Witle.
Count Wltte Is not so blind as to believe
that the revolution can -be stamped out.
but with the present demonstration of the
lengths to which the revolutionists will
attempt to go he hopes that the moderates
f all classes will come to their senses
md aid in counseling order and In accel
erating the convocation of the Douma,
the law governing the elections for which
was published today.
Among the developments hor today the
most Important was the capture of the
leaders of the "fighting legions." which,
't Is believed, ends the danger of an at
tempt at an armed uprising In SL Peters
burg. This capture. It is understood,
places In the hands of the government
complete Information regarding revolu
tionary plans, and the places where arms
are concealed, as well as disclosing the
weak spots in the army.
Rebels Driven to Corner.
Shortly before 3 o'clock tonight the cor
respondent of the Associated Press at
Moscow telephoned. that there seemed to
ae no longer doubt that the Insurrection
was collapsing. The insurgents still held
the quadrangle In which the Workmen's
Council was sttliug as a revolutionary
committee, but only because Governor
General Doubassoff was not yet ready to
give the coup d grace. Firing continued
'ntermlttently throughout the day. At 5
o'clock automatic guns were being used
In Strastnor Square, but the insurgents
were becoming exhausted after their four
days' efforts,, and the fighting was rapidly
degenerating Into guerrilla warfare. The
'nsurgents were defending themselves
with revolvers and bombs as they were
being hunted down from house to house.
The correspondent ayshat the entire
population of the city is terror-stricken.
and that after dark the back streets pre
sent a weird and uncanny appearance.
As he drove to the telephone station he
saw only a few civilians, who were sllnT
ig alon the side of the walls so as to
avoid the poll" and cavalry patrols, who
fire without challenging. The windows of
the houses are stuffed with mattresses
and blankets, and no light is showing,
;rhc police carry rifles, with bayonets
fixed.
Workmen Flee to Villages.
General Doubassoff is enforcing the
. ost rigid martial law. and no person is
allowed in the streets after 9 o'clock at
night
About one-third' of .the workmen have
left the city, and are traveling on foot to
their villages, some of which arc hundreds
of miles distant.
Among the lower classes, which do not
sympathize with the desire to overthrow
the Emperor, the feeling is becoming in
tense, and in many cases strikers have
been shot to death.
The correspondent predicts that the
rushing of the rebellion is likely to be
followed by the most horrible atrocities, if
the "black hands" arc let loose.
Governor-General Doubassoff. unknown

his headquarters in the Metropolitan Ho

DEFER REVOLT AT CAPITAL
t
Strike Leaders Hold Quick-Firing
Guns In Rcicrvc.
ST. PETERSBURG. Dec 26.-(l:IO P.
M.) The revolutionary leaders In St. Pe
tersburg, who on SUnday decided that It
was absolutely necessary to precipitate
an immediate conflict here as a. diversion
in favorof the revolutionaries at Moscow,
reconsidered their 'decision lasttilght, on.
the ground that It would be sheer mur
der to send the proletariat Into the
streets. Nevertheless they voted to con
tinue the strike and to use every means
to force out all the -workmen, but at the
same time to hold themselves in readi
ness to take advantage of the situation
In the event of the success of their com
rades In Moscow.
In spite of the seizure here, the leaders
claim that large quantities of arms. In
cluding quick-firing guns, have been
smuggled through Finland.
.The weather is intensely cold and a
foot of snow has fallen in the last B
1 ours.
Reports from Moscow say that the Con
stitutional Democrats and other liberal
parties, appalled by the strength of the
proletariat, arc seeking measures to save
the country from civil war.
REBEL CHIEFS ALL CAPTURED
Whole Committee and Arsenal, Willi
Secrets of Organization.
ST. PETERSBURG. Dec. 26. (7:40 P.
M.) Police and troops in St. Petersburg

members of the executive committee of
the fighting - revolutionary organization.
while they were discussing plans for an
armed uprising here. They captured also
the detailed plans for the uprising, as
well as large quantities of arms, bombs,
etc.
It is understood that, as a result of
these captures, the government has ob
tained extremely Important Information
concerning the connections formed by the
revolutionists with the army. A man
named Schoolman was at the head of the
executive committee, which numbered 47
members. . .,'

STRIKE IS.GOJXG TO ..PIECES
AH Now Depends .on Moscow, Say
Rebel Leaders.
ST. PETERSBURG. Dec 26. (5 P. M.)-
From the standpoint of the government
there was a slight improvement in the
outlook this afternoon. Notwithstanding
the decision of the Workmen's Council
to continue the strike, many of the
strikers broke away. Including about one
third of the employes of the Putlloff
Works, several hundred' In other facto
rles and several of the mlllmen.
It Is evident that the leaders must pre
cipitate matters' or the.trike will go to
pieces. From the standpoint of the lead,
ers, all now depends upon the situation
at Moscow.-

OREGONIAN, NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Dec 26. President RoosovcH most
decidedly disapproves the " movement
started at Baker City to take a 10-cent
collection throughout the United States
with a view to making a wedding present
to his daughter upon the occasion of her
marriage to Representative Longworth.
The President Insists that upon all oc
casions the family be regarded as any
other American family, a unit in the
community and not a part of the public
service. He decides that his daughter shall
be married under the same circumstances
that would attend any other American
wedding. "This wedding, while It will be
an event of great National importance in
one sense, is not a public function, and
It is the desire of the Presklont that it
shall not be so regarded.
Such a present as thai proposed at
Baker City. If made, would be- rc-
fused. It is not unlikely that a
formal statement will be issued at the
White House to this effect within a short
time, -with a view to heading off the
Baker City scheme before It gets well
under way. While the President appre
ciates .the spirit of those who arc behind
the movement, .he disapproves of the
method they have taken and will dis
courage this and all 'similar scheme?.

ALL FOOLISHNESS. SAYS .MOORE
Stntc Treasurer. Refuses to Be Ctis- -
todian or Dowry Funds.
SALEM. Or.. Dee. 2S.-(SpeckiI.)-Stale
Treasurer C S. 3loore refuses to be made
custodian of the. fund proposed to Be
raised as a dowry for AUce Roosevelt.
The plan of Baker City peop'-to raise
such a fund by popular subscription meets
his disapproval and he minces no words
In telling what he thinks of 4t
"It Is the biggest piece of foolishness I
have heard of for some time." he salil
today, after reading the dispatches giving
an account of the plan. "I am surp'rfeed
that it has gained any headway. I am
not in sympathy with the movement, will
not contribute to the fund, will not act as
custodian of the fund and will not have
anything whatever to do with it.
"I believe the ychcrac will be disap
proved by the Roosevelt family and by the
friends of Miss Roosevelt. If Miss Alice
Rootcvcll has performed any public serv
ice which entitles her to a dowry from
the public I am not advised what it is.
She is -no more entitled to a dowry .from
the public .'than arc thousands of other
young ladles oh the occasion of their'
marriage."
The man who devised this scheme evi
dently did not figure much on the con
sequences. If the fund should be as large
as he predicted, it would require the em
ployment of a clerk to send out the re
ceipts. ' If receipts were to be sent In the
form of souvenir postal card, these
would havo-to be printed at 'considerable
expense There would be much Incidental
correspondence growing out of the work
and all this would cost time and postage.
ltwas nor, upon this ground, however,
that Mr. Moore based his refusal to act
as custodian of the fund.

LETTER. TO HENRY E. REED.
PORTLAND. Dec. 26. 1903. Mr.
Henry E. Reed. Secretary of the
Lewis and Clark Centennial and
American Pacific Exposition and Ori
ental Fair. Portland. Oregon. My
riear Sir: At a mcetlnjr of the Lewis
and Clark Centennial Exposition Com
mission, held Saturday. December "3.
1005. at which meeting there was a
quorum. I was directed to notify you.
In accordance with the directions of
the Attorney-General of the State of
Oregon, that said Commission de
mands an accounting and claims a.
pro rata share of the moneys on hand
In the -possession of the corporation
of which you are the secretary. This
Is sent at this time for the purpose
of notifying1 you that the Commission
will hold your officers and directors
responsible for the distribution of the
balance In your hands from and after
the receipt of this' notice. I am. yours
very truly
. EDMOXD C. GILTNER.
Secretary.
Stockholders of the Lewis and Clark
exposition are confronted with a- now
situation, as the first sun has been
fired in an attempt to secure for the
State of Oregon part of the money
which will be left over when the af
fairs of the co'fpo'ration have been set
tled for good and for all. The Oregon
State Commission has formally noti
fied the corporation through Secretary.
Henry ERced that it will hold the of
ficers and directors of the Fair re
sponsible 'for the distribution of the
money, which it has been announced
will amount. to about 25. per cent of the
original Investment of the stockhold
ers, or $100,000. The official communi
cation, addressed to Secretary Iteed.
states that the commission "claims a
pro rata, .share of the funds now In
oossesslon of the corporation after all
liabilities have been settled. The Ore
gon Slats Commission also demands
nn accounting of the money which has
been expended by the corporation. The
communication states that the commis
sion is acting under the direction of
the Attorney-General of' the State of
Oregon.
Commission Demands a Share.
From the tone of the communication
addressed to Secretary Reed the Ore
gon State Commission. Is evidently de
termined to secure part of the divi
dends and equally determined that
there shall be- an accounting of the
money which has passed through the
hands of the corporation. If the Ore
gon State Commission continues to fol
low out the -campaign It has started
there is but little doubt that litigation
will ensue, as It is not thought the cor
poration would surrender part of the
funds which it now has Into the hand,
of tha State Commission without a.
struggle.
According to the members of the
Oregon State Commission the Attorney-General
is now investigating the
matter with the view of ascertafnlng
the rights of the State of Oregon In
the division of the money which will
be left over. It is also understood that
ex-Governor Lord has been engaged as
a special counsel and Is assisting the
Attorney-General.
Should the Oregon State Commission
win out In the contention, the stock
holders In the corporation would re
ceive hardly more than 12 per cent.
About 5400,000 was paid Into the corpo
ration for stock and the state appro
priated about $400,000. The stockhold
ers' who are in" favor of the return of
the money have been fighting off at
tempts to use it for other purposes ever
8 1 nee "the announcement of president
H. W. Goode that a certain per cent
would be paid back.
Not the Best of Feeling.
It Is a wjell-known fact that-not the
beat of feeling has existed between the
Oregon State Commission -and the cor
poration, which was more r less ap
parent before and during the Fair.
When the Fair was nearlng its termina
tion the State Commission' asked that
steps' be taken by the Exposition to set
'off part of the surplus money for the
erection of ja. memorial building. Noth
ing was done and considerable bitter
feeling was engendered. Another clash
occurred' about the method of award
ing the medals and prizes for the ex
hibits. - The officials of the corporation say
that . the action of the Oregon State
