Action of West's Report.
LA .CROSSE," Dee. 9. In an effort to
prosecute the timber lanM r operators,
whom he claims have swindled him out
of Oregon lamia to the value of f 100,
(sft, lliram Goddard a wealthy lumber
man of this city,' today swore out a
warrant for the arrest of six men. Those
named in the warrant are 8. A. I. Pu

fraud the government at the time the
land fraud cases in the "seven-eleven"
district of Oregon were tried; H. II.
I'iggs, George Hibbard, Kay McKay,
John Doe and Richard Roe.
Word has been received here that
fJeorge Hibbard is' already under ar
rHt in Portland. Goddard is said to
have purchased from the men named in
the certificates for -7000 acres of timber
land in Oregon. The certificates, he
says, proved to be forgeries. Many in
vestors in Wisconsin and Minnesota,
especially in the vicinity of La Crosse,
are itaid to have been caught in tne
same manner.
Believes nibbard Innocent.
Portland, Dec. ff. George Hibbard of
Grand Rapidn, Mich., van arrested here
last evening at the request of the Ia
Crosse, Wis,, authorities. An investiga
tion by State Land Agent West has
convinced him that nibbard has been
unjustly accused, inquiry leading him
to the belief that Hibbard was used as
as a cat's-paw by Horace O. MeKinley,
S. A. D. Puter, Kay McKay and oth
ers to interest eastern investors in Ore
gon lands. At the suggestion of West,
the Wisconsin Authorities consented to
the release of Hibbard on bis own recog
nizance. It appears that Kay McKay is Hib
bard ' uncle, and that througn him he
beearae interested in land speculations

doeed eastern people to buy them. It
Bow appears that - . these certificates
were forged and, thousands of acres of
land were disposed of in this manner,
Hibbard claims never to have known
Hiram Goddard and that he had no
dealings whatever with him. It is sug
gested that perhaps Goddard purchased
the certificates from innocent victims of
the land ring. .
Hibbard came to this eoast two years
ago in the interests of Wisconsin in
vestors who had been induced to pur
chase stock in the Pacific Land k Oil
Company, organized at Seattle, Wash.,
by E. G.Rogdon and Horace McKinley.
The company secured about forty thou
sand acres by process of mineral loca
tion in Jefferson county, Washington,
and ' sold stock to the value of about
sixty thousand dollars to develop the
property. Wells were sunk and in all
about $3000 was expended in develop
ment work.
What, if any, interest. Kay McKay
had in this company cannot be learned
but it is known that nothing was done
in the way of oil development after a
few thousand dollar had been spent in'
unsuccessful efforts to extract oil in
paying quantities from the ground.
Kay McKay is believed to Dc in Se

Lower Branch.
Minority Leader Williams and Repre
sentative Lamar of Florida- Have a
Lively Tilt Before House Adjourns
Oregon and Washington Men Named.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 11. With spir
ited debates on the subjects of railroad
rate legislation arising through the in
troduction of a bill by Tillman to au
thorize the interstate commerce com
mission to fix the maximum rates, and
the Panama canal, due, to the contro
versy, over the reference of the emer
gency appropriation bill "to a commit
tee, today's session of the senate con
tinuously proved interesting for more
than four hours.
I 'Adjournment was taken without men
tion of the late Senator Mitchell of Or
gon, and so for the first time the death
of a senator was permitted to pass un
noticed by the senate. The erasure of
Mitchell's name from the rolls follow
ed. Chaplain Hale recalled the situa
tion to midd in his prayer by referring
pointedly to corruption and death and
by praying that the members of the
senate might be given strength to bear
each other's burdens.
The Panama bill was referred to the
appropriation committee, by a vote of
40 to 23.
Senator McCreary introduced a bill
providing for unqualified free trade be
tween the United States and the Phil
ippines.
Lively Time in House.
Williams, the minority leader in the
house, "stepped on the lid" today just
in time to prevent revelations in the
natnre of an open criticism of the com
mi t tee assignments ef ' certain of his
colleagues for which he is responsible,
The incident followed the announce
ment of the committees. Lamur of
Florida, submitted a newspaper clip
ping purporting to quote Williams to
the effect that Lamar and Shackleford
of Missouri had Wen left off the inter
state and foreign commerce committee
because thev failed to follow the Demo
cratic caucus action last session on the
railroad rate bill. Speaker Cannon sug
gested that the statement read did not
constitute a question of personal priv
ilege which entitled Lamar to the floor.
"The gentleman might proceed by
unanimous consent," suggested Payne.
"How much time does he want, an
hour!"
It was here that Williams strode for
ward from his seat in the rear. He
nailed the sjeaker with word and ges
ture and when he got his eye he reserv
ed his right to object only long enough
to make this statement: "In the in
terest of Oemoeratie harmony, fairness
and of general good will, which cannot
b promoted by washing Democratic lin
en for the amusement of the Republi
cans of the house, I object."
Immediately the question became in
teresting. Lamar faced Williams, who
stood close to him and charged him
with taking the matter into the news
papers. Shackleford was on his feet
vainly demanding to ask a question and
many Democrats applauded the stand
taken by Williams.
Lamar- demanded that Williams call
a Democratic caucus tomorrow or allow
him to proceed. Speaker Cannon wield
ed his gsvel vigorously and declared
everybody ont of order and in the
midst of the confusion recognized Payne
for a movement to adjourn, which was
declared carried and the session was
over unfil Wednesday.

NEW YORK, Dec. 11 Five hundred
Russian refugees, many of them wit

tell graphic stories of their .experiences
and while recounting them the men of

at the issuance of the, manifesto, shey
say. They assert the hoodlums were led
by disguised police. In some places the
jails, were emptied of prisoners, who at
tacked and stole from the Jews. The
men from the province of Kovi no as
sert that the police themselves read
into the emperor's manifesto an order
to kill all Jews.- According to the ref

A QUEER WILL
BY TERMS OF WILL OF VERMONT
, MAN HEIRS LOSE MONEY IF
THEY SWEAR.
Executor Will Have Unenviable Task
In Seeing That the Wishes of the Ec
centric Man Are Carried Out
Estate Valued at $10,000. 1
DENVER, Colo., Dec. 11. One of the
oddest wills.that ever came before the
courts in tbis state is that of Harmon
J. Rood, which was offered for probate
here today. Rood, who was a resident
of Brookfield, Vt., died last May at
Muskogee, I. T. Miss Gertrude La
velle of Denver, adopted daughter of
the deceased, knowing nothing of any
will, and believing she was entitled to
the estate, took charge of it. Subse
quently two wills were discovered in
an old ilietioikiry, and she relinquished
the pro pert v.
The estate is valued at $10,000. By
the terms of the latest will Rood leaves
$230 each to Sarah fRugg of Salem Wil
lows, Mass., and ..(Nellie Gleason of
Gloucester, Mass., provided they first
save $250 of their own.
Two nephews are given $500 each,
but tbey also must save and lay aside a
like amount before the terms of the will
are carried out. He especially makes
the condition that if either of his nieces
and nephews use coffee they will lose
$250.
If they use liquor or tobacco fthey will
lose $.nk) each, and if they so forget
themselves as to become addicted to
profanity they forfeit the entire
amount.
In this case the money reverts to the
Vermont Domestil Missionary Society,
which organization is to receive what
ever amount remains after the provi
sions of the will are carried out. Lu
f-ins Rlodgett of Vermont is named as
executor, and lawyers are of the opinion
that he will have an unenviable -task in
seeing that the wishes of the accentric
Vermonter are observed.
MANY' DIVORCES
NEWPORT BECOMING A FASHION
ABLE DIVORCE COLONY.
MANY CASES.
Among Wealthy Society People Seek
ing Legal Separation are Mr. and
Mrs. Robert Armit and Mr. and Mrs.
Waldo Stearns. ,
NEWPORT, R. I., Dec. 11. The term
of the Rhode Island superior court now
in session in this city is notable for
the presence of a large nnmlxr of the
wealthy or socially prominent persons
who are seeking divorces.
" The romance of Mrs. Robert Loes
Armit, formerly Evelyn Braintree
Adams, the daughter of "Al" Adams,
the millionaire policy gambler, who re
cently left Sing Siug, is. expected to
end here this week, when, she will re
ceive a final decree of .livorce. Her
husband was a former mine owner in
Guanajuato, Mexico. She left him in
Mexico after a year of weJded life to
go to her father in his trouble, it was
reported, after her husband had toll
her she must choose between himself
and her father. Mrs. Armit and', her
sister, Miss Ida Adams, came to .New
port and rented an expensive cottage
to establish a legal resi Jence of one
year which would enable her to. file her
suit for divorce. Non-support and de
sertion are the charges, and Mrs. Armit
asks for a final decree.
Waldo H. Stearns and his wife, who
was Miss Iconia Chesebrough, a sister
of the former wife of Roland B. Moli
neux, are to settle their marital trou
bles at the present term of court afer
a number of threats to .bring suits and
withdrawals and reconciliations. Mr.
Stearns is wealthv and he and his wife
have, divided their time between the
fashionable summer colonies an J ex
pensive apartment hotels in New York
city. They lately lived at a fine villa
in Jamestown, just opposite this city,
and entertained on a large scale.' Mr.
Stearns still lives there. The present
Suit is based on a charge of desertion.
Another notable ease up for decision
is that of Mrs. Pauline Onatavia.Town
send, who, after a long estrangement,
seks a final decree from her huslnnd,
John R. Town sen. 1, the well known
clubman, a nephew of Edward N. Tay
lor and a cousin of T. Sufforn Taylor
and Mrs. Robert B. Livingston. Mr.
and Mrs. Townsend were married thir
teen years ago, but separated soon af
ter their honeymoon., Mrs. Townsend
did not seek a divorce for many years,
but now asks for a final decree on the
grounds of intemperance and non-support
and asks for the ctnsody of her
12-year-olJ son. , -
RUSSIA FEARS
MORE TROUBLE
SITUATION IN STRICKEN COUN
TRY EXCEEDINGLY OMINOUS.
FUTURE SHOWS DARK PICTURE.
Generally Believed Government Has
Entered Upon. Fatal Path of
Reaction.
Indications Point to Doom of Witte's
Ministry Workmen .and Railroad
Employes Hold Meeting to Decide
Question of a General Strike.
ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 10. It is
learned on high authority that the gov
ernment has finally decided against, uni
versal suffrage and is practically in
favor of the old project of twenty-one
workmen representatives and the exten
sion of the ballot to small rent payers,
merchants and the educated classes.
The railroad men claim they have been
informed -that several sections of, the
southwestern system have already re
sponded to the appeal for a general
strike. The cooler heads, however, are
advising against a move to precipitate
action which might result in failure
and are urging a postponement of ac
tion until the organization throughout
the. country has been consulted.
The situation is exceedingly ominous.
Public opinion is practically unanimous
that the government has entered upon
the' fatal path of reaction and that
Witte's ministry must fall. Reaction
and revolution confront each other in
the death struggle. Hoth Trepoff and
General Count Ignatieff, according to
popular impression, are being held ia
reserve to execute the program for re
pression, and it is again saiu the entire
Cossack strength of 400,000 will be mob
ilized in a supreme effort to crush tie
revolutionary force. m
General Parsenoff said: 1 i
- "I think we are coming to the Tirers
of blood in which the revolutionary
party will lose their game and Russia
her liberty." Certainly the appearance
of St. Petersburg and the events here
today seem to justify this black picture
of the future. Remnants of the work
men's council with delegates from the
railroad men's union and other organ
izations arc holding a meeting tonight
to decide the question of a geiif-ral
strike. If the government deliberately
plans to challenge now, it has chosen
its time well, as the funds of the or
ganizations are low and many workmen
are tired of the strike and starvation.
Has Not Abandoned Hope.
led
London, Dec. 11. A correspondent to
the Daily Mail at S. Persburg, in a
dispatch dated December 10, sends an
interview with Witte, in which the
premier indicates that Russia is con
fronted by the alternative of a revolu
tion or violent coercion. Though the
count has" not abandoned hope he is not
sanguine and if forcible repression will
become necessary he will, according to
the correspondent, resign his task to
other hands.
MAYORALTY FIGHT.
Boston's Municipal Campaign the Most
Remarkable in History of the
City.
BOSTON, Dec. 11. The municipal
campaign which closed today is in
many respects the most remarkable in
the history of Boston. The voters to
morrow will have their choice among
five candidates for mayor. Four of the
number are regular party nominees,
while the fifth is running on nomina
tion papers. The regular Democratic
candidate is John t . Fitzgerald and the
regular Republican candidate, Louis A.
Frothingham. Judge Henry 8. Dewey,
who contested unsuccessfully for the
Republican nomination but is running
as the people's candidate. In addition
tickets have been named by the mu
nieiaal ownership and Socialist-labor
SALEIVT
parties. The Democrats are predicting
the election of Fitzgerald by a plurality
of at least 17,000, which is slightlv un
der the normal Democratic pluraity.
The campaign has been conducted on
purely local issues and the chief inter
est has arisen from the factional fights
within the ranks of both the old parties.
