London, Feb. 10-The pfivy council re-
turned its decision this morning in the
Greene Gaynor case in favor of the
American government.
The council received two Judgments

costs of appeal. The decision caustic-
ally criticizes the action of Caron IN re-
leasing Greene and Gaynor, and Carons
extraordinary Intervention"
Gaynor and Greene were indicted in
Savannah. Ca, IN 1895, charged with
embeZzlement and defrauding the
United States government, together
with Captain Oberlin NJ. Carter, in the
performance of government contracts.
The Illicit profits We're estimated at
$4,000 900. Gaynor and Greene We're ar
rested In New York. and whiil they
were out on bail fed to Canada Efforts
to extradite them from Montreal We're
progressing favorably when they went
to Quebec. where detectives kidnapped
them and took them to Montreal There
was big legal fight over the action and
the Quebec judge issued a writ of
habeas corpus and the prisoners rushed
back to Quebec. Efforts to quash the
writ were denied by Justice Caron AZ
ter long legal controversy Gaynor and
Greene obtained their liberty within
the limits of the province of Quebec
The United States government then ap-
pealed to the privy council the highest

HOUSE IN DEBATE
ON THE RATE BILL

And Sibey of Pennsylvania Stood with
Him in Attitude Against the Bill
General Trend of the
Debate.

Washington, Feb l0.-The house met
To-Day an hour earlier than usual, the
subject OF regulation of freight rates
sim being under consideration to the
exclusion OF all other business. The
galleries We're crowded. in anticipation
of the interesting ceremony of count
ing the electoral vote later in the day.
Todays discussion was opened by
Thnyer of Massachusetts. who con-
graduated the president, the republican
party and the majority OF the commit
tee on interstate commerce. for adopt
/ Ing what he declared to be purely a
de'HoCratic measure. He charged that
1t had been pulled down at the instance
OF the president. as not meeting with
his appreciation.
Charging that an opportunity had
been lost to democracy by Offering an
inadequate substitute to the Townsend
bill, Shober of New York said a similar
mistake had been made at the st. Louis
convention when, in spite of the desire
of the rank and file of democracy, and
the cry from the Industrial centers, the
party had been lured by false hopes and
promises held out by the Belmonts, the
Ryans and Cord Meyers of Wall street
and trust fame, into diSregarding the
wishes of the people and thereby ac
complishing disaster for the party.
Declaring his intention of standing
unreservedly by Roosevelt on the sub
ject OF regulation OF freight rates, Van
DuZer of Nevada said there had been
no more courageous action that of the
president since the days of Andrew
Jackson. because the president had
taken the lead far in advance of his
party.
Counting the Vote.
shortly after ! p. IN. the senators
reached the house and President Pro
TEN. Frye, who presided over the joint
session, announced the method of pro-
cedure. Senator Fairbanks did not ac-
company the other senator's
The announcement of the vote for the
democratic nominees caused slight APP
plauSe, as did the announcement of The
first state for the republican nom-
nees.
Miss Alice Roosevelt and q party of
friends occupied seats in the executive
gallery during the count of the vote.
When the announcement was made of
the vote there was great applause
among the republicans.
At the conclusion of the count the
tellers reported that Roosevelt and
Fairbanks received 1886 votes, Parker
and Davis 140. President Pro TEN.
Frye declared Theodore Roosevelt
elected president and Chas. Wv. Fair
banks elected vice president for four
years, beginning March 4, 1905. The
Joint convention then dissolved.

An Estimate of kuropatkin.


Berlin. Feb. 7.-Colonel Gaedeke for
the first time since his return from
the far east where he was the war
correspondent for the Tageblatt. has
written his opinion of General Kuro-
Datkin. as follows
Although through and through an
honorable man, benevolent and per-
sonally brave, admira Bile in the quiet
of his work room. simple in his tastes
and an excellent administra tor, kuro-
patkin lacks that glance that penetrates
the darkness of a situation. that quick
decision, that immediate correlation Of
means, and before all, that uneympa-
thetic will that alone triumphs in war;
that without compassion uses the
bodies and souls Of his men in taking
their last and best TO compass vic
tory.
Such men as Kuropatkin are not
few in the Russian army and their
qualities attach the soldier to his flag;
but they do not win victories. Kuro-,
patkin at Lao Yang burdened his mindt
with the placing of individual regi-i
ments. battalions and batteries. and
lost thereby his conception Of the,

St Petersburg Feb, I.-Rumors of
Kuropatkin handing over his command

announcement that General Gripenberg'
had been relieved of his command of

is unable to obtain any confirmation
of the reports. The war office Declares
they are Improbable, but is unable 10
deny them.
Two Stories of Affair.
There are two conflicting versions OF,
the incident. According to one of them
Gripeuberg complained to the emperor
that kurOpatllin had refused to sup;
port his thanking movement. in view OF,
which Gripenberg asked to be relieved.
The emperor, it is added. then tele-t
graphed kuropatkin asking for an eX-,
PLANTATION. in reply to which kuropatkin,
wired that his health was shattered
and requested permission to turn over,
the command to Liuevitch.
According TO the second and more
commonly credited version of the af-i
fair, Kuropatkn complained to thej
emperor that Gripenberg undertook a
Hanking movement in defiance of or.
lers. and demanded the generals dis
missal.

Cotton seems TO have tendency Ia
opso rather late in this climate, which
is sstisfsctory to our farmerA as thsy
have all they can do early in the fell
taking osre of fesd crops, broomcoro,
and sowing wheat. But it is our opin-
ion that as the cotton becomes sociim-
ated, it will open earlier and earlier
each season. Aud we believe that i'm
meose crops of it will bs planted au-
other season, now that the farmers are
assured they have 9 firstclass ginuery
