HAN AMGnaAN
lie thanked his e. God from day TO day
For blessings rich and rare;
True love had met him on the way
When April skies were fair.
And then another swectly brought
Them newer joys to share
He shrank from where embittered men
Chafed meath the wrongs they bore.
And gladly hurried homeward when
His daily tasks were DER.
With gladuess IN his breast he kissed
His dear ones sc the door
Content with Joys that were his own.
He did not hear the cries
Of those beneath the chariots thrown
And those with sunken eyes;
He cared not that the tyrant took
A bloody sacrifice.
One day the long-enduring crowe
Rose IN its wrath and might
And there was turmoil fierce and loud
And enc from sweet delight
Went wandering where the ruins Of
His joys we're spread ere night

formal appearance in the case on or
before the first Monday in FEB. larry,
or he will remand the case to the dis
trict court for want of jurisdiction.

treasury of the Boston & Montana

holders, and it establishes the legal
standing of the Amalgamated com
pany and decided that it car hold

After Courts Reentry Of

OF ministers

Pekin, Jan. 4:-The dowager en-
pressing a desire to concilitate for
eigners. She says friendly relations
with ministers should be resumed i'm
mediately upon the courts return to
Pekin, wherefore it is desirable that
the emperor grant an audience, and
orders that an early date be fixed for
the reception of the ministers. Her
majesty recalls the pleasure she ex-
p%erienced twice in receiving the ladies
of the diplomatic corps and announced
that she will soon arrange another
reception.
The edict mentions the hall in which
the emperor will receive the ministers.
It is in the forbidden city and is the
same hall where the members Of the
council and highest mobiles are receiv-
ed. This conforms with the peace
treaty. 1t is reported that buildings
along the route of the procession will
be provided, where foreign ladies may
witness the courts reentry into Pekin,
by order of the dowager empress.
This is a remarkable incident.
Today's edict confirms the report
that two missionaries were victims
in the Kaanan massacre, and orders
the vigorous punishment of persons
concerned in the outrage.
The foreign office has received a
petition signed by a multitude of Chi
nese merchants in the United States,
requesting the government to oppose
the reenactment of the Chinese ex-
clusion law.

AMERICANS AT CORONATION.
Two Naval Officers, an Army Officer
and al Civilian May Attend.

Washington, Jan. st is expected
that a way may be found by which
two naval Officers of high rank will
take part in the coronation ceremon-
les at London. The question of select
ing officers ,for this service has not
yet been considered by the president
or the secretary of the navy but the
prospect that such selections will be
made has catsed much speculation in
naval circlet. The present indica-
lions are that the president will Sc
lect a ciyfifah Representative for the
occasion, and hlso one officer of the
army and onel officer of the navy to
accompany thIs civilian. Quite apart
from this the Lazy will be represented
by a rear ADMIRAL in command of the
fleet. The effect of this arrangement
will be to place two naval officers
of high rank lin service in connection
with the cord nation.

DATA FOR MESSAGE.
Findings Of Commission Will Be Laid
Before Congress.

Chicago, Jan. 3:-The Record-Her-
aid tomorrow will say: The inter
state commerce commission will be-
gin a series of three Investigations in
Chicago next Tuesday, which are said
to ha ~ for their lrrrCse the gather
ing of data for q special message by
President Roosevelt to congress. 1t is
said that in this special message the
president will deal with three sub
jects, as follows:
First-Railway combinations.
Second-The interstate commerce
commission.
Third-Legislation governing inter-
state traffic.
Originally it was the purpose of the
president to cover these subjects fully
in his annual message to congress, but
owing to the inability of the inter-
state commerce commission to get all
the facts necessary, these subjects
were touched upon but briefly.
1t is doubtful if the investigation
into the Burlington deal can proceed
Wednesday,, as President Harris of
the Burlington and Darius Miller, vice
| president, will not be in the city.
They have asked the commission to
postpone the date and unless the st.
Paul people interested can get here
a postponement may become neces-
sary. 1t is understood that the legal
counsel interested in the organization
of the Northern Securities company,
James j. Hill, e. H. Hartman, J.. P.
Morgan, former President Hays of
the Southern Pacific, President Burt
of the Union Pacific and ]. G.. Stubs,
traffic manager for the Hartman lines
have been asked to attend. None of
these men were subpoened but Darius
Miller said that he expected to re
spond to the commissions request and
it is presumed that the others will dc
the same. It is also the purpose OF
the commission to inquire into the
purchase of the Southern Pacific by
the Union Pacific, and into all thai
has transpired within the last yeal
tending to show the workings of the
community Of interests idea"

Will Go Into Liquidation.

st. Paul, Jan. 3.-The st. Paul Trust
company, capitalized for 5000, 900, has
voted to go into liquidation. The
chief cause is a recent decision of
the supreme court making the Trust
company liable for the judgment Of
100000 in the estate of G. ID. Strong,
which has been in charge of the COM
pany for the last 10 years. The cred
itors will probably be paid in full, but
the stock holders will receive an un-
certain amount. The announcement
is made by the public examiner. The
company's business has been very ex-
tensive.

THE CHARGES AGAINST PRISON.
ERS ARE READ.
DEFENSE ASKS FOR DELAY
Ore Hundred and Eighty-two Wit
nesses Summoned-Large Amount
Of Documentary Evidence.

Havana, Jan. Atrial of the cases
arising from the Cuban p%ostofice en-
bezzlement opened today in Audencia
court before five judges. The court
is located over the prison in
which Nicely has been confined. One
hunderd and eighty-two witnesses
have been called to testify n OF
these about so responded today. The
defendants, Nicely, Rathbone and
Reevs, were seated on n side of the
room and Moya and Mascara, Cuban
stamp clerks, on the other. Nicely
showed no signs of his confinement.
He has grown stouter and was in good
spirits. Upon the opening of court
Rathbone was informed by the judge
that his counsel, Seniors Lanuza and
Desvernine, had withdrawn. The
court asked other counsel for the de-
Tense if they would assume charge Of
Rathbone's case and being answered
in the negative appointed Lawyer
Pascua, court employee and gave Rath-
bone one hour in which to consult
with his new counsel. !,
The court then asked Nicely to plead
and the latter responded that he had
never heard the accusations against
him; but, after consulting with his
counsel, he entered a plea of not
guilty. Rathbone, Moya and Mascara
also pleaded not guilty, while Reeves
asked PERMISSION to wait until next
session Of court before making his
plea and his request was granted.
Senior Zaya, Neely's counsel, asked
that accusation against his client be
read. During the reading Rathbone
said he desired to protest against con-
tinuance of trial until he should have
had time to get couseE of his own Sc
lection, and also that if his plea was
to be taken as a deposition he wished
TO withdraw it. Court said that that
plea would not be taken under the
circumstances and that Rathbone's
protest would be considered.
Before the reading of the complaint
vas finished Lawyer D%esvernine,,
brother of Rathbone's former counsel,
asked leave to assume the protection
Of his brothers. client for the after
noon. The court granted the request,
but would not allow a further delay
asked for. Lawyer Desvernine then
moved that reading of Rathbone's
answer to charges be withheld until
the next session of the court which
was granted and court adjourned until
Monday.
The amount Of documentary evi-
dence submitted by the government
is very great, the table being piled
high with books and interrogatories.
Court in it's refusal to postpone
trials, said there was no reason for
delaying proceedings because inter
r%ogatories and other evidence for de.
Tense had not arrived, since tney
might arrive at any tina during the
trial.
The defense takes the ground that
the government is submitting a great
mass of documentary evidence and
that the 20 days given them in which
to file answer is not sufficient.
