 The Legislature of Montana In n
 Queer rnIuddle-Three Organizations
 in the House.
 HELENA, Mont, Jan. 5.-To-day was the date set for the meeting of the state legis- lature and three bodies of men met in as many different places and organized three branches of the Montana legislature. In the senate it was all easy sailing, as the body stands 10 democrats and six republicans. But the trouble over the ten members from Silverbew county remains as last year. Twenty-nine republicans met in theElectric Light hall when StateAuditorKinney called the roll in which he included the five repub
 lican contestants from Silverbow county. All the democratic members of the house, including the five democratic claimants from Silverbow, met in another hall and organized by electing Harry Courty speaker and a full list of the officers. The republican house also elected officers. Just after noon the committee from the demo- cratic house waited on the senate and gov ernor with the information that the house of representatives had
 organized and were ready for busi- ness. Governor Toole and the senate each
 recognized this organization. This after noon the rePuDncau mousse seht messaSe
 to the senate that it had organized and
 was ready for business. This message, by a vote of 10 to 6, was rejected and the clerk was directed to make no note of it on his minutes. As the matter stands now the deadlock is as complete as it was last year, when not @ law was passed. AS the democrats have the senate and governor
 this year, where last year the senate was tie, they rather have the best of it now;
 but if the matter goes to the supreme
 court, as it will undoubtedly if that body
 follows the precedent set Last year, it will
 decide in favor of the legality of the re- publican house. Some compromise may | be made which will end the deadlock. The governors message will be delivered to- morrow. .r, s..-...

EMMA ABBOTT DEAD.

The Great American Pr1ma Donna Passes to Her AeWard-Pathett ettc Scene at the Death-Bed-How She Secured Her Musical Education. SALT LAKE CITY Jan. 5.-Emma Abbott, the great American prima donna, died at the Hotel Templeton this morning of pneumonia. She was taken ill on last Wednesday right, but persisted in going on the stage and singing her part in 'Ernani" contrary to her physician's advice. On New Years day she was taken alarmingly ill and a conference of physicians was or dered. From that time she grew worse. The scene at the death-bed was a pathetic one. The singer was conscious almost to
 the end, despite the fact that opiates had
 been administered. Her last words were,
 '1 am not afraid to die." There were
 present at the bedside Alice Ellerton. Miss Nellie Franklin, Miss Vernon, MT. Pruette, her manager, MT. and Mrs. Michelina, Miss
 Annandale If the company, Manager Pratt and wife of the hotel and Dr. Pinkerton. The body was embalmed and enclosed in handsome casket and will go from here to Denver, thence to Chicago, thence to Gloucester, Mass. where her husband is buried. Her will provides for the dis position of her remains. Miss Abbott con Uu0uGly o4poCtou Io ulo, Auu tO1u uoI pAy- sician on New Years day that her next
 song would be sung in heaven. singu- lar coincidence connected with the death is that she died on the anniversary of her husbands death. A short burial service was held this afternoon at the hotel by i Rev. Dr. Nice of the Presbyterian church.
 The body left for the east at 10 o'clock to- night.
 Miss Abbott (Mrs. Eugene I. WetherelD was born in Chicago thirty five years ago.
 She early developed taste for music and with her father started for New York, giv- ing concerts, accompanying herself on the guitar. It was during this tour that MT. Wetherell heard her sing in country town and interested himself to procure her musical education abroad. She became protege of Baroness Rothschild and later won high fame as leader in English high opera. Miss Abbott and MT. Weth- erel were married in London seventeen years ago. Her husband died last year, leaving his widow $2 ,OOO, ,OOO.

RAILROAD INTERESTS.
GEORGIA CENTRAL's DIVIDEND.
A QUESTION OF ACCOUNTS no BE sETTLED-THE
oLCoTT COMMITTED ASKS FOR PROXIES.


The semannual dividend on the Central Of Georgia
Railroad wac not paid yesterday. The road is leased
to the Georgia Pacific which in turn is leased to the
Richmond and Danville under joint guarantee with
the Richmond Terminal. The non-payment Of the
dividend is explained the result of the illness of
John ii. lnman. president of the Richmond Terminal.
Owing to his absence, there has been some confusion
OF accounts, which has led the Richmond and Danvie
officers TO avoid the responsibility OF the payment.
Nice-Prcsident Rutherford OF the Richmond and Dan
Vile Company said yesterday: "The Georgia Central
directors declared the dividend without the direction
OF the Danville Company. The matter must rest in
order TO allow an adjustment of accounts. There is
some discussion the question to whether IL ad
vances are paid prior to the maturing of dividend
those advances should not be deducted from the earn
In In any event, the Georgia Central has plenty OF
securities in its treasury, which NAV be used to
provide funds and the payment Of the dividend be
DELAYED only a short time
The friends Of General Thomas. who Is leading the
present scheme OF recOnstIucng the finances Of the
Richmond Terminal, declare positively that the post
ponement Of the dividend is not indicative of any
change In the policy of the Terminal management
toward its constituent companies. They that the
matter will be settled probably to-day.
The Olcott Committee Yesterday made an appeal for
generous authority from stockholders The following
official statement was given out:
The committee appointed by F. P. Olcott, pres
dent of the Central Trust Company. TO investigate the
financial affairs OF the Richmond and West Point
Terminal Company has organized and begun its labors
Its first official act is request to the stockholders for
authority to represent them mt any meetings OF stock
holders which may from time to time be thought
necessary. For that purpose form of proxy has been
prepared and will be sent TO the stockholders. These
proxies will be voted by the committee only and
for such matters measures of which previous notice
shall have been given by circular publication.
that any stockholder who disapproves what is pro-
posed may withdraw or revoke his proxy. AS
the committee receives proxies representing majority
of the stock 1T will call meeting of the shareholders
and propose such measures may be thought best to
preserve the credit and integrity Of the company and
its property"
