POLAND IN REVOLT.
Russian Emperor Issues Note OF
Warninq.

warning.
st. observation-disclosures is not to be
permitted to become a second Finland.
The Russian government. in a strongly
worded communication, serves notice
on the Polish Nationalists that, for
good or i'll, the ancient kingdom of
Poland has now become an integral
part of the Russian empire and that
while the government intends to fully
observe the national rights of Poland,
any attempt to wrest Poland authority
from the Emperor woulu be considered
an act of revolt, and would lead the
Poles into the sorrowful paths trod-
den by them in 1881 and 1863.
The Russian authorities recognize
the gravity of the movement in which
two antagonistic parties, the National
lists and the Socialists, under the lead
ership Of such Poles as Henrik Sien'
kiewicz, the novelist, have Joined
forces, and they declare that none OF
the benefits of the emancipation man
ifesto can be conferred on "a country
in revolt"
The Emperor's ukase says:
1.-The government will not tolerate
attacks on the integrity of the empire,
insurrectionary plots OF acts Of vio-
lence. 1t declares in decisive manner
that as long as the troubles in the Wis
tula districts continue and as long as
that part of the population adhering to
political districts shall receive none OF
the benefits resulting from the mani
festos Of August 18th and October 80,

-soldier. in Revolt.

st. Mtersburg.-This city was in a
furore OF excitement all of Thursday
and late into the night over the news
of the mutiny at Cronstadt. Every one
of the exaggerated reports of the anair
received credence in many quarters
and half the inhabitants of the capital
believed that the mutiny was success
full; that the troops sent from here had
Joined in the revolt. that the entire gar
rison of ST Petersburg would follow
suit to-day and that the town of Cron-
stadt had been burned to the ground.
together with the surrounding forts.
Many of these sensational reports
were, of course. entirely false, but suf-
ficient details have been received to
prove that about 1900 sailors and a
battalion of artillerists from one OF
the forts indulged in mutiny which
was only put down by about 1000 Cos
sacks and troops of the imperial guard,
hastily dispatched from St. Petersburg
and from the garrisons near Peterhof,
and that machine guns had TO be em-
ployed.

OHIO DEMOCRATIC,
Elect Governor and Majority of Both
Houses.

Columbus, O.-That John NJ. Patti
son has been elected governor for The
next three years by Il plurality run
ming well above 10000 is settled. as
also Is the Democratic working ma
jority in both houses of the Legisla-
ture, but there is still some uncer-
tainty as to the remainder of the state
ticket.
The earlier returns were apparently
from sections favorable 10 Governor
Herrick, for he held lead over the
rest of his ticket until to-day, when
fuller returns from the country dis
tricts cut into the vote severely. and
by the middle of the afternoon lie
seemed to be over 10000 votes behind
his ticket. If that difference stands,
the victory of these other officers will
depend on the size of Pattison's plu-
rality, with the chances in favor of the
choice of the entire Democratic list.
Chairman CARRIER tonight figured
pluralities for Pattison that aggre-
gated close to $4,000, in which event
the entire Democratic ticket was safe.
The Republicans have given out no
later estimates since that concerning
the election of Pattison by 10000 plu-
rality, but later reports received ait
headquarters Indicate that a larger
figure Is correct.
The state officers and legislators
chosen yesterday will serve three
years instead of two as heretofore,
the constitutional amendment for bi-
ennial elections providing that the
terms of officials elected at this time
shall expire January i, 1909. at which
time the state officers and legislators
chosen in November. 1908, will as
sumo office. The Legislature chosen in
1908 will choose a United States sena
tor in succession to Senator Foraker
For some time there was confusion on
this point, and it was widely but In
correctly asserted that the Legislature
Just chosen would name Foraker's 4
successor.
Republican estimates tonight give
the Democrats two to five majority in
the next Senate and from ten to fifteen
in the House and these are probably
the minimum estimates. The Demo-
cratic claim is a majority of five in
the Senate and twenty-seven in the
House.

DENVER SOUTHEASTERN.
Ambitious Railway Project to Reach
Fourteen Counties,

Denver-Some time ago it was an
nounced that the people interested in
the Platte Canon Fuel and Power
Company, which has recently devel-
oped mine at Roxborough Park, near
the mouth of Platte canon, have pro-
jected an electric railroad and power
plant and would shortly make more
definite announcement of their plans.
Yesterday there was Incorporated a
company which is to finance and build
the road, but from declarations in the
incorporation papers, II takes much
wider scope than was at first inti-
mated. The first object is to get into
Denver in some manner. and later to
extend line of electric road along the
base of the mountains, touching all
the large towns as far south as Trini-
dad, and with branch from Pueblo
to Amity.
The articles of incorporation were
filed with the secretary of state. and
the name given Is the Denver South
eastern Railway Company. It, is capi-
talized at $1,0O0.O0O and is ofIicered
as follows: Walter II. Tunis, presi-
dent; J. C. Cockey, secretary and
treasurer; w. o. Temple, attorney;
H. Ogle Tunis, w. o. Temple. T. e.
Doan, w. c. X. Berlin of Denver, Fred
erick A. Sherwood of Philadelphia, r.
d. Whiting of New York City, direct
OrS.
The route of the line will take it
from Denver, through Arapahoe, JEFF
ferson, Douglas, Teller, FL Paso. Ere
mont, Custer. Pueblo, Huerfano and
Las Animas counties. From Pueblo
to Amity the line will go through
Otero. Bent and Baca counties.
The men interested in this PROPOSE
tion are well known in Denver and in
the East and are heavily backed finan.
cially. President Tunis is from Balti'
more and is member of the we'll
known family of that name who were
prominently identified with the Allan
tic coast lines. Secretary j. C. Cockey
came from Washington. ID. c., where
he is well known in business, to be
come secretary and treasurer of the
company and manage its office affairs
1t is stated that the first work is tc
construct line from the coal mines
to get into Denver. and also build a
power house. The extensions south
will come later.
The plans are not complete for the
Denver line. The promoters want to
make an arrangement either with the
Denver & Rio Gtande or the Colorado
& Southern to get into the city over
their right of way. If they can do that
they will build their line in that di
rection distance of seven or eight
miles. If such an arrangement cannot
be made the officers announce their in
tention to get an entrance into the city
for themselves.
Passenger cars on the new line are
to be operated by electricity generated
at the power plant. which is to be 10
Gated at the coal mines. using the
waste coal as fuel Work is to be
started at once and pushed to comple

large freight tonnage can be developed
in the region of the proposed coal road
to Roxborough Park. not only from the
coal mines but from Industrial enter
prises to be located there. Among these
may be mentioned Portland cement
plant, sand, lime, brick. tile. friedrich
and other manufactures, from the nat
ural resources that are known tC
