The Ameri' can people have been deeply stirred with pity for the unfortunate sufferers. who have been plunged into grief that beggars description, and tender them the expression of their heartfelt sympathy; be it further
 Resolved, That the president of the United States is hereby respectfully re, quested if he finds it not incompatible with the public interests to use such good and friendly offices with the Rus sian government as the traditional and unbroken friendship between the two nations may justify and secure such action by the Russian government as may tend to prevent the recurrence of such outrages in the future"

WEST LOSES CASE
Man Who Claimed Allotment of
 Land Because He Married -.-.. an Indian.
an Indian.

Washington, Dec. 6--Justice Duell has rendered decision affirming the judgment of the district supreme court in the case of Willis c. West against Secretary Hitchcock. West having married an Indian woman, claimed that he thereby became ''hy adoption a member of the Choctaw tribe to which the woman belonged, and was entitled to an allotment or land in Indian territory.
 The secretary denied Vests appli- cation for allotment on the ground that the alleged adoption had never received the approval of the interior department. West then sought by mandamus proceedings to compel the secretary to recognize the adoption.
 The trial court held that the answer of the secretary showed that his rul- ing involved the exercise of discretion and could not be controlled by manda- mus, and in this view of the case the appellate court concurs.

ACTIVE AT SEVENTY
HETTY GREEN STILL MANAGES
 HER OWN AFFAIRS.
Worlds Richest Woman Celebrates Birthday at Her Desk-Lays Success to Careful In-
 vestments.

:, Although having passed the allot- ted threescore-and-ten, Hetty Green, without doubt the richest woman in the United States, shows no signs of decline in mental activity On Tues day, November 1, occurred the seven tieth anniversary of her birth, and she celebrated the day in her usual man. ner, at her desk in the Chemical na- tional bank in New York city. sA-- @
 For 40 years now has this woman been one of the leading characters in the American financial world, and by her shrewd management has added fully S50,000,000 to the fortune of s5,000,00 left her by her father in 1865. To-day her property is of many sorts and her real estate holdings fair iy freckle the face of the country. Oc- topuslike her mortgages embrace some of the safest and soundest properties in a chain of cities extending from Bos- ton to San Francisco, and the income therefrom flows toward her from every national section and corner between Maine and Texas Railroads and steamboats, mines of copper in Mich igan. of gold in Nevada, and of iron in Missouri and Pennsylvania, tele- graph and telephone securities, her wealth covers all sorts and conditions of gilt-edged dividend-paying invest ments. She has, by her own genius and energy, reared a vast and valuable fabric, of which every strand is known to her and numbered as proverbially as are the hairs of the human head. Yet she is as diligent in weaving strand after strand, in piling dollar upon dollar as when she began, on the death of her father.
 The 70 years rest lightly upon Hetty Green, and she has no intention of re- tiring from active business for some time to come. Business has become . habit with her Numerous litiga- tions have sharpened her wits and she Is to-day more than ever capable of managing her own affairs. Perhaps , the smallest suit she ever defended grew out of a summons for her to ap- pear in court and show cause why she should not pay a two-dollar tax on a fa- vorite dog. She evaded service for quite time and eventually a license was taken out for the bothersome pet in the name of an only daughter, sdIss Sylvia Green, the other child being Q son, Edward Green, in Texas.
 Hetty Green is strong. forceful wom- ana type that probably no other country could have produced. just as fl required an overripe civilization to produce an Ibsen. The American spirit of independence is incarnate in her-keen. self-reliant, capable.
 It is significant that she has no pro- nounced views about equal suffrage, al

TO PROTECT AMERICAN INTERESTS

Striking TeIegraphers' Attempt to Hold Meeting Frustrated by Cos
 sack Swords and Whips-Witte
 For Universal Suffrage.
 LONDON, Dec. Especial dispatches from St. Petersburg, via Eydtkuhnen, Prussia, confirm the former report that a guard for the American embassy con sisting of marines under petty officer from the United States cruiser Mime apolis has arrived at the Russian capi- tai, that Premier Witte has presented to the czar scheme for universal suf- frage in opposition to the proposal for restricted suffrage which the committee of ministers had been considering and that Lieutenant General Rudiger, min ister of war, has reversed the judg- ment of the court martial at 'Samara sentencing to death an engineer named Sokoloff and other leaders of the rail- road strike. Thus general railroad strike is averted.
 The striking telegraph operators at tempted to hold meeting in the build ing of the Imperial Economic society. The president of the society was in formed that the meeting could not be held without the authority of the pre- feet of police and he drove to the pre- lecture to obtain the desired perm1s- sion. Meanwhile Cossacks entered and demanded that the meeting disperse. -&r fn mand, whereupon a commissary of po- lice ordered the CossackS and the po- lice to disperse the meeting, which they did, beating all who remained with the flats of their swords and with their whips.
 This affair apparently has strength ened the determination of the strikers to stand firm until their demands are granted.
 The strike of the Moscow telephone operators, who cut the wires and tore up the poles, has severed the last means of communication with the ancient cap ital.
 Present conditions are unbearable, and sympathy with he'poorly paid post and telegraph employees is now turn ing into indignation against the strik- CTS, and the public is supporting a formidable movement which has been started by all classes to throw off the yoke of the revolutionaries.
 The government undoubtedly is en- couraging the organization of these forces. The Law and Order party took the lead, which is now being followed by the Society of Strike Breakers, but the most important movement has been started under the leadership of Father Gapon, the former idol of the work men, who since his residence abroad has become convinced that Russia is not prepared for republic and is ap- pealing to his comrades to cut loose from the revolutionary agitators.
 .. Over 15,000 Cossacks. and infantry with machine guns, occupy the capital.

 q wish it were in my power," wrote President Roosevelt, ito be at the din- ner held to celebrate the seventieth birthday of Mark Twain. It is difficult to write of him by his real name in- stead of by that name which has be- come a household word wherever the English language is spoken. He is one of the citizens whom all Americans should delight to honor"
 From London came a cablegram of greetings signed by forty of England's s leading authors.
 There were cordial letters, poems of praise and tributes of affection from many American authors, and when Colonel Harvey introduced the guest of honor to make a little speech every body cheered.
 The speaker explained how he had "beat the doctor and the hangman for seventy years" saying:
 Since forty I have been regular about going to bed and getting up, and that is one of the main things I have made it a rule to go to bed when there wasn't anybody left to sit up with. and I have made it a rule to get up when I had to. This has resulted in an un- swerying regularity of irregularity.
 "I have made it a rule never to smoke more than one cigar at a time have no other restriction as regards smoking. I do not know just when l began to smoke. I only know that il was in my fathers lifetime and that was discreet. He passed from this life early in 1s4T. when was shade past eleven. Ever since then I have smoked publicly.
 ''I smoke in bed until have to go to sleep. I wake up in the night, some. times once, sometimes twice. some times three times. and I never waste any of these opportunities to smoke.
