ATTACHES AREINAMED.
A resolution providing for the pur-
chase of ten desks for the use of
stenographers met with objection from
Belshaw, who wanted to know what
had become of the desks purchased two
years ago. An investigation failed to
trace the old desks, however, and Bel
shaw's effort at economy was defeated.
Then the amusing incident of the ses-
sion occurred. The attaches that had
just been appointed were ordered to
assemble at the desk to take the oath.
The alacrity with which this order was
cbeyed was surprising to behold. The
attaches swarmed down the aisle in
droves. The aisles filed, the attaches
oyerfiowed between the desks, disar-
ranging the carefully smoothed coif-
fures of the Senators and treading on
their toes.

TERROR RULES,
Russian Oil Industry Is Destroyed and
Thousands Killed,

Baku, Sept. s. - The situation here
tonight shows no signs Of amelioration.
1t hardly could be worse. The terror.
stricken inhabitants are fleeing from
the city, knowing that the garrison 3
utterly inadequate to protect them and,
although the worst scenes of fire and
massacres have not yet occurred in
Baku itself, none dare think how far
the excesses may proceed.
The principal fighting is not in Baku
itself, but at Balakhan, where hun
dreds have been shot by the infantry
and artillery and where 1000 were
killed or wounded during desperate
attack on the military camp and pro-
vision depots. The troops sustained
few casualties. A large number OF
workmen barricaded themselves in the
Balakhan hospital. The soldiers began
the attack with rifle fire and then
stormed the hospital and completed
their work with the bayonet.
The entire oil and commercial quar-.
ters of Balakhan, Sabunto and Romani
have been wiped out by fire and the i'm
habitants remaining behind were mas
sacred and thrown into the flames.
Bibiebat continues TO burn and 10
threatened with the same fate as Balak-
han.
The consulates, banks and buildings
in Baku are guarded by troops. All Of
the English residents and almost all
other inhabitants OF the better class
have boarded ships and gone to sea to
escape from danger. All available
steamers have been employed for this
purpose,
Martial law has been proclaimed in
the city. Nobody is allowed on the
streets after o'clock at night, and in
habitants Of houses are held strictly re-
sponsible for shots fred from them.
Artillery was employed against one
honse from which shots were fred.
There is general panic in the ci'y.
A whole army OF hungry workmen
driven in from the burned suburbs has
fiocked into the city. There is the
greatest destitution, and measures for
transporting the workmen from the
city are imperatively necessary.

Portland, Sept. Q. - The sensational
feature OF the Williamson. Gesner. Biggs
case yesterday was the admission by
Judge Hunt OF line of testimony that
had been excluded by Judge De Haven
in the previous two trials, and who
had also declined to permit United
States District Attorney Heney 10 argue

various title papers, Replying to an
inquiry from the court, Heney assured
Judge Hunt that he had not been per
mitted to ''get beyond the front door"
with any Of his authorities bearing
upon the admissibility OF the evidence.
The question came up in the course
of the direct examination OF Ben njamin
+. Jones, government witness. At

vigoruos effort TO exclude the testimony,
and took an exception to the ruling Of
the court.

the time believe TO be true, TO the effect
that certain lands which these persons
would then be applying to enter and
purchase in the manner provided by
law, were not being purchased by them
on speculation, but were being pur-
chased in good faith to be appropriated
to the use and benefit OF those persons
respectively, and that they had not, di-
rectly or indirectly, made any agree
ment or contract, in any way or man
ner, with any other person or persons
whomsoever, by which the titles which
they might acquire from the United
States in and to such lands should in

Petersburg to cease its warlike activi-
ties, and the situation is intense. The

Washington, Sept. 9.-secretary Root

of maintaining the "open door" In
Manchuria. The secretary will ask
Japan for permission to locate consul
at Dalny, which has been leased to
that country. He will make the same
request for consul at Harbin, which
will be again under the jurisdiction Of
China. Russia refused to permit con-
suls at these places because Dalny was
declared to be military fortress and
Harbin likely to become the center Of
military operations.

RIOTS IN JAPAN.
Martial Law Proclaimed as Result of
Dissatisfaction with Peace.


Toxic, Sept. s. - Martial law has
been declared throughout japan and
the full power of the army is being
used to uphold the Mutsuhito dynasty
and put down rioting, which threatens
to involve the entire nation.
Rioting was resumed throughout the
country Thursday night and mobs
swarmed through the streets Of this
and other cities, bulning and destroy
ing homes, churches, and schools Of
native Christians.
1t is reported, although not con-
firmed, that the few mission churches
and schools that escaped the vengeance
of the mobs Wednesday night are now
destroyed.
The temper of the mob is shown by
the fact that there are now more than
200 badly wounded policemen in the
hospitals and more are being taken
there hourly. What the casualties were
to the crowds cannot be estimated, as
many of the hurt were carried off by
friends.

BOGUS VOTERS CUT OUT.
Philadelphia List Purged of $4,000
Names illegally There.

Philadelphia, Sept. S.-The assessors
OF the ,104 election districts OF the
city, whose duty it is to place in voting
lists the names of all qualified electors,
completed their revision of the lists to-
day. Unusual interest was taken in
their work, because Of the allegations
that more than $4,000 fraudulent
names had been placed on the lists.
For the last two months the policemen
and other employees, under the direc-
tion of Mayor Weaver and the City
party, have been making canvass of
the city for the purpose of purging the
lists of illegal voters. The police made
reports alleging that more than 10000
names we're on the lists in violation of
the election laws. The assessors set
yesterday and today to revise the lists.
The number of names stricken off by
the assessors will not be known for sew
eral days. The secretary of the City
party tonight estimated that at least
48 900 names had been dropped.
