buildings in their districts, on which the
secretary of the treasury has set the seal
of approval, so far as he is able to
further such legislation, by reporting
upon the sizes Of buildings needed and
the probable cost. - ... 49,.
Every member Of the Minnesota dele

has at least. one bill Of this character.
Governor Lind has introduced and had

Mr.. Stevens wants at least $250,000

's KAISER A KINGLY GIVER
$4,000 Cabinet His Gift to the En-
press.

Berlin, Dec. 26.-Probably no Euro
pean court is giving Christmas presents
on 80 extended scale as the kaiser g.
Every one gives presents to every
one else and for weeks before Christ
mas secret inquiries are made about the
most suitable gifts to bestow
The kaiser is the greatest Christmas
giver Of all, and his presents in every
case exactly fit the desires Of the happy
recipients. This year the empress re-
ceived beautiful inlaid rosewood cabi-
net OF Berlin manufacture, with exquis
itely fashioned bronze adornments and
three SECRET drawers elaborately hidden.
A white marble bust Of himself is his
gift to his future daughter-in-law, the
Duchess Cecelie. To the crown prince
he presented several handsome pieces Of
furniture for his newly arranged apart
ments in the Stadt Schloss at Potsdam,
where he will live with his young bride.
Soon before Christmas, the royal mint
sends the kaiser bag of bright, new
gold 20 and 10-mark pieces, and another
Of silver 5-mark pieces. His majesty
fills his pockets when he goes walking
in the parks at Potsdam, and the little
children and old men and women who
are fortunate enough to meet him, or
soldiers standing sentinel, stamping in
the snow, are certain of a gift, accom-
panied not infrequently by Joke,
The empress is always practical with
her gifts. She is fond of presenting
women with costly laces Her present
to her husband this year is a beautiful
enameled miniature of herself set in a
gold frame. Her gift to Prince Henry
is q silver model of sixteenth century
war galley studded with emeralds.

SIOUX CITY men
WILL REBUILD
Plans Made for New Blocks in
Burned District--Hydrant
System a Failure.
Special to The journal.

0peC1hl GO 1uo 0Vu1uaAs
Sioux City, Iowa, Dec. 26.-sioux City
business men are not disheartened in
the least by the calamity which Wis
tied the city in Friday nights fire, and
have already taken steps to replace the
burned structures. At meeting
of the largest property owners yesterday
everyone agreed to do his part in re-
placing the buildings on the two and
half devastated blocks.
Already the work Of removing the
wreckage has begun and construction
will be pushed. At Fourth and Pierce
streets will rise a new Northwestern
it the Schulein and Pruslow. blocks will
be rebuilt. The Brown ! Ives estate
Of Providence, R. l., has already deter
mined to replace the building occupied
by the Peavey & Nash furniture store
and the Brown block at Nebraska and
Third streets will also 90 up again.
Jonathan w. Brown and j. H. Bolton
will rebuild the Commercial and Bolton
blocks and T. S. / J: P. Martin will
replace their mercantile block. Early
announcement was made that the seven
the Farmers Loan & Trust company.
The Pelletier Dry Goods company has
already purchased new quarters which
will be occupied forthwith. The War
d.Pratt-Howell company, wholesale
grocers, had purchased ground for a
new warehouse which will now be built
Immediately.
R. E. Purslow has not decided wheth-
er the West hotel will be replaced, but
Landlord Frank Donohue says some one
will be secured to give him quarters.
The fire is generally taken as con-
elusive proof, of the absolute inability
of the hydrant system to protect a city
of this size. While the water supply
was. unlimited, the opening Of many
pipes in the burned buildings and the
large number Of hose lines dividing
the pressure made it impossible to
throw stream two stories high during
the height of the fire. The council is
expected to take steps Immediately to
| order fire engines.

President and Mrs. Roosevelt
Spent the Day with Their
Children.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service. s
Il Washington, Dec. 26.-The celebra-
stion Of Christmas day was. begun at
midnight Saturday night by special
masses, which were attended by most
of the diplomats from Catholic coun-
tries, and ended last evening with for
NAL dinners at most of the embassies
The day was quietly observed at the
White House. Christmas is one OF the
days which the president and Mrs.
Roosevelt devote entirely to their chill
dren and relatives, and they did not
deviate from their practice yesterday.
Neither Of them went to church sat
urday night. Mrs. Roosevelt attended
Ia Christmas eve service at st. James
chapel, a little Episcopal church In
Northeast Washington, as she has done
every year since she has been in Wash
ington.
Christmas dinner was served at the
White House today, but the presents
were distributed yesterday. The gifts
from members were piled on the tables
in the library. The stream Of presents,
largely consisting Of flowers and books,
which poured into the White House all
day, and did OF cease until late last
evening.
The two children of the Korean am
bassador observed the day by giving
instead of receiving presents: Their
gifts were taken to the church OF the
Covenant Sunday school, which they at

COURT IS READY
FOR K0CH'S TRIAL
Young Defendant Spent His
Christmas in Jail Twenty-four
Jurymen Summoned.
Special t. The Journal,

Special t. The Journal.
New Ulm, Mimi, Dec. 26.-Every-
thing is in readiness for the fight for
the life of Dr. George R. Koch, indicted
for the murder of DR.. l.. A. Gebhard,
his business rival, who was killed in his
office Nov. l. Twenty-four jurymen
have been summoned, and Sheriff Will
liam Julius is ready to summon spe-
cial venire as soon as the need is evi,
dent. The attorneys are ready for the
case, and in all probability the trial
will commence at 9 am. tomorrow.
The only possible delay that threat
ems today is the fact that man who
was indicted by former grand jury
charged with abusing female child.
but who has not been in custody, was
arrested last week, and it may be pos
slble that his case will be tried before
that of Koch. This is not probable,
however, as the defense in the Koch
case is anxious to have the matter set
tied at once. 1t will require special
order to have the new case put ON the
calendar ahead of the murder case.
Yesterday was the saddest Christmas
in DR.. Koch's life, and yet he did not
appear to be greatly downcast. He
had good dinner and finished it with
a good cigar. He appeared as cheerful
as he has been since his arrest, and is
impatient for the trial. His attitude
puzzles the authorities and forces them
at times, in spite of the strong evil
dence they have against him, to ques-
tion his guilt.

CARDINALS DE CURIA
FOR ALL NATIONS

Rome, Dec. 26.-It has been prac-
tically settled that the pope will soon

as much as possible all danger of fric-

ality, provided the necessary support is
supplied by the government or the

than probable that the next American

that Mrs. Henderson assertion that
she was a beneficiary from the estate

He allowed all the members of the papal

His sisters and several other relatives
assisted at the mass and spent the day

The most important ceremony now in
preparation at the Vatican is the canon

Vianny, commonly known as the Cure Of
AIRS, a small town in the south of France.
For over forty years this humble par

needs of his country district, and the

years before his death, in 1859, thou
sands of pilgrims from all over the

upon the man who was by all considered
