YAM SAINT IN FIELD
FOR THE SENATE
MAKES SPEECH IN WHICH HE DE-
CLARES 1T is HIGH TIME SOME
THING WERE DONE ABOUT
FREIGHT RATES.

st. Paul, MINI, December 21.-Governor
Van SAINT tonight addressed a large au-
dence at Hastings. Mimi, a small city
about eighteen miles from here on
freight rates" and his speech is regard
ed here as his entry into the senatorial
contest as a candidate for the seat In the
United States senate now occupied by
Senator Clapp of st. Paul.
In his speech the governor said:
"All men are Interested in the question
of freight rates. What is freight rate?
A freight rate is a tax on everything
OF the country. Unreasonable rates are
charged and determinations are common.
These evils exist and should be remedied.
This question will be settled and set
tied properly. To admit that we are help
less is to declare that constitutional gov
ernment is failure.
Il shall urge the Legislature to me-
morialize congress in favor Of granting
increased power to the Interstate COM
merce commission. trust it will do this.
"A great deal of favorable sentiment
has been created already from many
quarters. | am ready to join hanoj with
any man or any body of men to carry
on the contests Before Joining you would
better take time for reflection. Do you
know the power of corporate wealth? Do
you fully realize the vast influence 1t
wields? Do you know how mercilessly 1t
publishes those who stand in Its way
and opposes its will? do, and enter this
fight with the full knowledge of these
facts''

WITNESS IN INSANE
CASE GOES INSANE
While Listening to Testimony He Sud-
denly Begins to Sing In
Court Room.

Chicago, December 21.-While listening
to testimony In court here today regard
ing the sanity of a cousin, Joseph Buteau
of st. Raphael, Quebec, apparently be-
came suddenly insane.
The case involves a contest over the
will of John Benoit who died in this city
about a year ago. leaving a fortune of
$4,000 to the Roman Catholic church. 1t
was Buteau's first day in court In the
trial in which as a witness he was to
aid his cousin, Mrs. Philmene Pellerin,
in an attempt to break Benoit's will.
When the court convened Buteau sat in
the rear surrounded with a number Of
relatives of Mrs. Benoit. Suddenly Buteau
began to sing slowly and softly strange
airs Of his native country. He did not
cease when the bailiff stepped up to re-
mind him that he was In court and was
disturbing the proceedings, but his in
carnations became louder and more in
sistent. Rev. Achille Bergeron, who is
the principal defendant In the case, and
against whom Buteau was to give testi-
mony, attempted to soothe the witness,
but without effect.
The priest, however, succeeded in lead
ing Buteau into an adjoining room. Here
Buteau's singing became louder and he
was soon chanting to the full powN Of
his voice. The judge of the court found
1t necessary to suspend the trial until
Buteau was removed from the building

MURDERED GIRL HAD
HEAVY HEAD OF HAIR
Forty Hair Pins Were Taken From
Coil That Remained on
MutIlated Body.

Colorado Springs, Col, December a.
The police are as far from a clue to
the solution of the Cutler mountain mys-
terry as ever, but their efforts are be-
ing redoubled.
An additional fact in the description of
the dead girl is the conclusion of the
officers that she had an unusually heavy
head of hair. The coroner has In his
possession no less than forty hair pins
taken from the coil OF hair that remains
on the head of the girl. They were
made of stiff wire and the number and
strength of the pins Is taken to indi-
cate that the growth Of hair was very
heavy.
The county commissioners today offer
ed reward of $1,000 for the arrest and
conviction of the murderer. The excite
p.ent over tfe crime is growing.
Coroner Law today had the girls re-
mains buried In Evergreen cemetery In
a lot provided oy the county The avs
and the nair have been saved for den
tincation purposes.

TRAFFIC IN LONDON
Is STOPPED BY FOG
WAS so DENSE THAT PEDESTRi-
ANS EVEN LOST THEIR WAY
AND MANY WOMEN BECAME
HYsTERICAL.

London, December H.-London was en-
veloped today in fog more dense than
anything witnessed during the last two
years. AS early as 2 p. M the city was
lighted up everywhere. the same as at
night, out even electricity and gas failed
to dispel the gloom. The fog was partic-
ularly thick in the west end where the
streets were crowded with Christmas
shoppers. In many places the traffic was
almost completely stopped and the great
est care was necessary to avoid acci-
dents, number of which nave already
been reported.
As night closed in, the density increas-
ed and vehicle traffic in the most crowd
ed section in the center OF London was
completely stopped. Singularly the fog
was not so thick in the east end as in
the west end, but within a circle of a
mile with Trafalgar square as the center,
it was so opaque that foot passengers
lost their way, some Of the scenes wit
messed were pitiful, some were ridicu-
lous, and the whole was extremely wierd.
There were instances in which women
became hystercal and even the police
lost their sense. Omnibus drivers became
confused and drove on to the sidewalks
until finally all traffic was held up at
the main crossings. On the streets lead
ing thereto, stood shadowy lines Of om-
nibuses, and the cabs and wagons load
ed with Christmas packages stood mo-
tionless The most brilliant electric light
only served to make the darkness visible.
Torch boys were requissitioned and they
did a rushing trade. The railroad traf-
fic was also delayed. Queen Alexandria
who intended to leave London for Sand
ringham was postponed here on account
of the fog, and the consequent difficulty
of driving to the statian from Bueking-
ham palace

PROPOSED REFORMS
WILL BE DELAYED
STATEMENT OF THOSE IN AU-
THoRITY IN ST. PETERSBURG
Is THAT CHANGE WOULD BE uN-
WISE UNTIL WAR ENDS.

st. Petersburg, December a-Emperor
Nicholas is holding councils daily at the
Tsarskoe-Zelo at which, 1t is understood
the internal situation in Russia Is being
thoroughly discussed.
Among those who are attending the
councils are Grand Duke Michael. the
brother of the emperor, ministers and
members of the council of the empire, in
cluding Prince Sviatopolk-Mtrsky, minis
ter of the INTERIOR NJ. Witte, president of
the ministerial council; M. Pobedonost-
zeff procurator general of the holy
synod; M. Muraveff. minister Of justice;
NJ. Kokovzoff, minister of finance; count
Vorontzoff- -Dashkoff, head Of the Russian
Red Cross; Count Solsky and NJ. Erlin-
Off, Fritch, Richter and Hesse. Prince
Sviatopolk-Mirsky laid before the council
the addresses and resolutions adopted by
the congress of zemstvos which was held
here last month. Prince Sviatcpolk-M Mir
sky NJ. Witte and Count Solsky favored a
policy of concession, but the others op-
posed such policy on the ground that
the demands of the zemstvos were SUBJ
versive Of the essential principles of the
autocracy. In the opinion of the council 1t
is not the time to entertain proposals
looking to a change in the existing form
of government while war Is in progress.
and 1t was decided to discourage political
agitation. Measures will be drawn rela-
tive to the distress consequent upon mob
ilization.
There is no confirmation of the report
that Vice Admiral Rojestvensky has been
appointed commander-in-chiefo OF the Pa
cifc squadron. and that Admiral Skryd-
loft Is to become a member of the board
of admiralty.

Senator Beveridse was the person to see,
and with this the senator friends de-
clare that he will kee hands off the pie

Rollins Controls Patronaae.

Announcement is made here that Chair
man Thomas r. Rollins of the North
Carolina republican committee will con-
troll the patronage In that state during
the next administration. Some interest
attached to the matter owing to conflict
ing opinions as TO whether Rollins or
Representative Blackburn. the only re-
publican congressman from the state.
would control. The President is quoted
as saying that Blackburn is to control
only in his district, the rest Of the state
being turned over to Rollins. About the
same system of patronage distribution
will, 1t is said, obtain in other demo-
cratic states.
Chairman Rollins in discussing south
ern politics today expressed the opinion
that North Carolina contains more re-
publican sentiment than any other south
ern state, and he exhibited In this con-
nection a table showing the votes re-
ceived by Roosevelt in number OF states
as follows: North Carolina. s2,S72; Vir-
ginia, 4s 450; South Carolina 1854: Georgia.

Roosevelt Is In Earnest.

According to intimations appearing In
some of the administration organs the
President is going to start his fight for
increased interstate commerce commis-
sion power over railway rates shortly af-
ter the holiday recess, and while he
hasn't much hope of action in the senate
at this session, he does want the house
to adopt some kind OF measure calcu-
lated to show the country as well as the
railroads that he Is in earnest over the
