Lack of Snow May Prove Disastrous to Late Sown Wheat Hundreds Appeal for Aid in Cities and Many Accidents Are Caused by Abnor mal Conditions. Chicago, Jan. 7. Catching hundreds of thousands of persona unprepared, the whole Northwest, Upper Mississippi valley, Michigan, Indiana and Ohio are experiencing the severest winter weather in years. Reports from vari ous points west and northwest are that suffering is acute, that exposed cattle and sheep are endangered, and that late sown wheat is likely to be much damaged. Accompaning the low temperature is fierce northwest wind that cuts to the marrow. Tfee cold wave fell upon city and farm savagely. Western grain fields are especially exposed to the rig ors of the season, because there is lit tle snow to protect them. . With nine degrees below zero this morning, Chicago endured the coldest day since 1905. With the cold came manifold transportation troubles, chil ly cars, broken trolley wires, blockades and wrecks due to broken rails. With the cold also rose the mighty wail of the poor and destitute, who have man aged to exist during mild weather, but who are absolutely helpless now. Hundreds of homes are without food, fuel or clothing. Hundreds of home less wanderers, the flotsam and jetsam of a-great city, were driven to shelter, and the philanthropic societies were taxed to their utmost to afford relief. Enormous demands upon the city and all charitable organizations are expect ed tomorrow, and plans are in the mak: ing tonight to meet them. Two deaths and many accidents were reported due to the cold. Buries Bodies in Center of Messina. Messina, Jan. 8. A most impres sive funeral, ceremony was witnessed here today when Archbithop Barrigo made his way through the ruins of the city to the cemetery at Mare Grosso and blessed a grave 100 feet wide and 30 feet deep, containing 1,300 bodies. The dead were piled one on top of the other, and the bodies coveredwith quicklime. The prelate was followed to the cemetery by a large gathering of survivors, whose lamentations min gled with the Lation words of the eer- vices. Subsequently the archbishop walked through the ruins and blessed the mil itary hospital, the military college, the barracks and the archbishop's house, considering these wrecked edi fices as so manv cemeteries. Under them were the corpses of soldiers. dents, policemen and monks. All the valuables found among the ruins are being taken oh board the steamer Duca di Genoa in the bav. Yesterday currency to the amount f $3,600,000, including the contents of the safe of the Sicilian-American bank, was transferred to this vessel. A banker named Mauromati, who was one or the richest residents, lost everything.

TENSION SOMEWHAT RELAXED Foreign Governments Reluctant About Meddling With China's Affairs Washington, Jan. 7. Notwithstand ing the uneasiness that apparently ex ists in Pekin, growing out of possibili ties in the changes in China's progres sive policy following the dismissal of Grand Counsellor Yuan Shi Kai, State department officials express the belief that the tension has been somewhat re laxed, noticeably since the appointment of Liang to he minister of foreign affairs. His appointment, the officials say, may be helpful in checking to a limited extent any action toward reac tionary stops. The question of making representa tions to a foreign government on mat ters of inte rnal administration and pol-1 i;,i iey, :u nays a ejencate one, is regarded as particularly so in thi3 case. Road Makes Traffic Agreement With Japanese Steamships. Chicago, Jan. 8. The official an nouncement was made today by the St. Paul road that upon completion of its Pacific Coast extension the company will make a special effort to secure Oriental traffic. It is said that a traffic alliance has been made with the Osaka.Shoshen Kaisha for semimonthly sailings from Seattle. This company is now constructing six modern, fast steamers for trade to the Orient and the St. Paul hopes to absorb the lion's share of this business now that all other American roads have goneout of it.

' This was taken on the ground that the messages are not respectrul and are therefore a breach of the privileges of congress. Representative Madden, of Illinois, today introduced a resolution calling upon the Interstate Commerce commis sion to inform the house what ad vances have occurred In freight rates in different parts of the United States since the passage of the Hepburn rate law, and whether such advances have been occasioned by an adsvance in the tariff rate or by a change in classifica tion or by charging for some privilege which was formerly accorded free.

Ornittine reference to the anti-rase track gamb ling; bills and making no mention of the proposed direct primary, Governor James N. Gillett sent his first bi ennial message to the legislature yes terday. He makes strong recommend ations in favor of the improvement of transportation conditions, urges re lorms in the banking, insurance and taxation laws, and suggests changes in me conauet ot reformatories and char itabie institutions. TU , i ue governor recommends the raia ing or $i8,ouo,000 throuzh a state bond issue, to be expended in the build ing of a uniform system of roads which shall extend up and down the state, connecting the great centers of popu lation. An appropriation of $400,000 is ask ed to supplement the amount voted by congress for the dredging and improve ment of the Sacramento and San Joa quiin rivers and the reclamation of lands adjacent. ine succession of disastrous bank failures in California and the financial stringency of last year serve as texts for the governor in urging the passage of banking laws which shall prevent commercial banks from lending their money recklessly. Salaried officers of banks, says the governor, should not be allowed to contract loans only under rigid restrictions. Banks, he savs, should be required to have 20 per cent of their deposits always on hand, and narsn punishment should be meted out to offenders. A standard insurance policy, modeled after the New York form, is recom mended. The redemption of the state's crim inais is a suDiect which the governor discusses at length, urging an exten sion of the parole system, which, he says, has worked with marvelous effi cacy. The expenditure of $125,000 for a state arm and school for orphans over 14 years of age is an important fea ture of the message.

December Gain is $3,000,000. Washington, Jan. 5. The monthly statement of government receipts and expenditures shows the excess of ex penditures over receipts for the month of December, 1908, to have keen $10, 251,593 and for the six months of the current fiscal ear a deficit is shown of $34, 201, 400.

The fires in the city are also being gradually extinguished. The official figures compiled so far show than 14,000 bodies have been buried in four cemeteries, that 9,000 refugees have left the city, and that 9,000 p rsor.s still remain here. stead of excavating, in an endeavor to find the bodies buried beneath the ruins, it has been proposed that every house in which it is believed persons are buried shall be covered with quick lime.

Washington, Jan. 5. The famous $29,240,000 fine case against the Stand ard Oil company will not be reviewed by the Supreme court of the United States, but will be retried before Judge Landis, who imposed the now famous fine. Such is the effect of the Supreme court's action in the matter. The decision of the court to this ef fect was annouoneed by Chief Justice Fuller soon after the court convened yesterday. The ease came to the court on a petition filed by the government asking the court in a petition for a writ of certiorari to order up the record in the case for a review of the decision of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals for the Seventh circuit, by which Judge Landis' original decision imposing a fine of $29,240,000 against the Standard Oil company for accept ing rebates from the railway companies was reversed. In the Supreme court the case turned largely upon the right of the court to interfere, in vi-w of the fact that the case had beei passed up on by the Court of Appeals, the govern ment contending for such privilege as a right, while it was urged in behalf of the oil company that the precedents were all against such a proceeding. The action of tne court consisted in the announcement that the govern ment's petition would not be granted. The effect of this announcement will be to leave standing the decision of the Court of Appeals, which was adverse to the government and favorable to the company. Thd court s announcement was the barest formality. No reason whatever were given and the determinattion of the court was stated along with a num ber of other cases of comparatively lit tle importance. The chief justice sim ply announced that the petition for certiorari was denied. Under this rul ing the case will now go back to Judge Landis' court for a new trial, in ac cordance with the decision of the Court of Appeals. It is stated at the department of jus ice that the decision gives the cuse its original statU3, subj ct to the views of Judge Grosscup, as contained in his decisions of July 22 and November 190S. 10, DOWN TO SYSTEM. ft 7,000.
