WRIGHT TELLS OF UPRISING.
Governor of Philippines Reports on
Fighting by PaIaja James.


WASHINGTON Secretary Taft re-
ceived a cablegram message from
Governor Wright at Manila in re-
sponse to his inquiry in regard to the
recent uprising of the Palajanes, Dol
ores, Samar, Governor Wright's mes
sage is as follows:
MANILA, Dec. 26, 19O4.-Secretary
of War. Washington, D. C.-With ref
erence to your telegram of 21st last,
l regret to say that General Corbin's
report of attack on and loss of de
tachments of scouts at Oras and Dol
ores is correct. Palajanes have OF
late left west and north sides Of Sa-
mar and became active on east coast,
which is practically without harbOr
and very difficult of access during pre-
valence of the existing monsoon.
Orders were given some time since tC
strengthen all detachments on the
east coast, but unfortunately this was
delayed by wreck and loss Of coast
guard boat carrying a hundred or
more of the cOnstabulary. The men
were saved but the delay in sending
another coast guard boat to the res
cue resulted in leaving the small de-
tachments at Oras and Dolores iso-
later and the consequent loss. All
east coast stations have been heaY-
lily reinforced and we are still send
ing men in by my direction. General
Allen, chief of the cOnstabulary, left
here CManiIa) two weeks since to
take personal charge of affairs in Sa-
mar. 1 am still reinforcing him with
constabuIary and am consulting with
General Corbin, who, if necessary,
will aid US with troops WRIGHT.

CAN HOLD ARTHUR
RUSSIAN ARMY HAS OVER TWO
MONTHS PROVISIONS.
THE JAPS MOUNT MORE CANNON
Confirmation of the Report That Gen.
kondroAhenko Has Been Killed
The Work of Dynamitins and ParaI-
ieIing Continues.

TOKIO-The Japanese occupied the
entire fort on Rihlung mountain at
| 1880 o'clock Wednesday.
Trustworthy advices from Port Ar
| thur confirm the report that General
Kondrachenko has been killed and
that General Stoessel has been Injured
by falling from his horse General
Smilioff is also reported wounded.
The advices further say that the
stern Of the battleship Sevastapol has
sunk in shallow water. It's bow is
damaged in two places and the steer
ing room gear is also damaged.
The garrison is reported to be con-
fdent in the belief that relief will az
rive before March l. Despite it's
heavy losses November 26 and subse-
Quently the garrison is said to be
cheerful and resolved to continue the
struggle as long as a single soldier
remains. The army claims to have
sufficient provisions to last until Feb
ruary. The navy possesses about ono
months stores. The price of food in
the beleagured fortress is high. Beef
is IL rOubles per pound horse meat
6 copeks, turkeys $50 roubles each.
eggs 160 roubles per hundred. But
a few junks bearing supplies reached
the garrison the past month.
1t is expected that the capture OF
the heights Of Pigeon bay will fur
ther curtail the landing of supplies.
The emperor today received in au-
dience and decorated Captain ZurbOn-
zon of the steamer Willehad, which
had brought home the japanese ref
ugees from Russia.
The Japanese dynamiting and paSl-
leling against the eastern section OF
the main circle of forts around Port
Arthur is progressing favOrably. Tho
right wing of the besiegers continues
a heavy and effective shelling Of the
new town preparatory to operations
which are nearing completion. II is
probable that the next attack will be
simultaneously directed against the
east and west forces of the fortress
in an endeavOr to divide and weaken
the resistance of the defenders.
The New Year season has begun
and all Japan is enjoying a holiday,
consequently Togo's journey from
Kure to Toxic will be continuous
popular ovation.

LEGISLATION FOR CANAL.
Members of Congressional Committee
Consider Question

WASHINGTON.-M of the
congressional committee which will
formulate the isthmian canal legisla-
tion have been considering the various
questions relating to the regulation
of the canal zone. A bill for the pur-
pose passed the senate last session,
but was rejected by the house, and
measure finally was agreed upon,
placing the whole government of the
zone in the power of the president I'M
til the end of the present session of
congress. Before the close of this
congress it will be necessary to renew
that power for term of years, or to
enact a new law. Opinion differs as
to the best method of handling the
subject, although it is believed that a
strong government will be necessary
in order to provide for the care and
health of the men engaged in canal
work. 1t is expected that Representa-
tive Mann Qll) will introduce a bill
relating to canal work soon after con-
gress reconvenes.

LONDON-While numerous semi
official statements have been heard
that Ambassador Choate is about to
retire from diplomatic life, it can be
stated that Mr.. Choate has not sent
his resignation nor any communica-
ton on the subject to President
Roosevelt or the state department;
nor has he received any inquiry, either
from the president or Secretary Hay,
concerning his future plans. 1t can
be said, however, that it is Choate's
intention to tender his resignation
soon after Inauguration.

Upon Plan to Reseat Peabody.
DENVER-Very few members of
the legislature have yet arrived in the
city and whether the plans of William
G. Evans and other republican lead
ers to reseat Governor James Pea
body will be advised by majority OF
the republican members Is still In
doubt. The republicans can carry
any measure on which they are
agreed. There are at least half a
dozen candidates for the speakership.
Some republican members known as
followers of former United States
Senator Edward o. Wolcott have de-
cided that while they do not contemp-
late union with the democrats under
any consideration, they will oppose
vigorously any plan for counting out
Adams. The Wolcott republicans say
they will go into a party caucus and
will agree to abide by the decision of
the caucus up to a point where it con-
fiicts with their conscience They in
sist that they have always strictly OBJ
served party regularity, but when a
course is commended that is morally
wrong they will not follow it and they
will not consider their decision in
that regard as irregular" The plan
to seat Governor Peabody, some OF
them declared, is wrong and no eau
Gus action will bring them to support
such action.
The canvass of the votes for state
officers is made by the legislature and
is not subject to review in the courts.

have the field divided into the middle aud

according to his view. In the goal zones
