WEBER IN COURT AGAIN
Says Attorneys Fees Are Too High,
but Will Pay More for
Freedom
By Associated Press.

AUBURN, Dec. 11.-Adolph Weber
was in the superior court today in con-
nection with a settlement with his
guardian, John Adams. in the settle
ment OF the estate of his father, Julius
Weber. His appearance has greatly
changed since he was last in court. His
hair has grown long. his face is un-
shaven; he is thin and he has general
unhealthy look. He aroused the inter-
est of those present by asking the court
If he had the right to employ or dis
miss attorneys as he pleased. Judge
Prewett informed him that he certainly
had, which seemed to give him a great
deal of inward satisfaction. He stated
that he thought the attorneys fees
had been too high and added:
II think they have had enough, any
way, but if they succeeded in eXtri-
eating me from the difficulties in which
they have involved me by their incom-
potency l will be satisfied"

GIANT TURBINE ARRIVES
New Steamer Carmania Has Success
full Trip Across the
Atlantic
BY Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE first
transatlantic turbine steamer that
ever came 10 this port, the giant new
Carmania of the Cunard line, arrived
at her dock today. All the way across
the Atlantic the Carmania encountered
unusually severe weather and yesterday
when only few miles outside the har-
Dor, she was obliged to lay to and let
the storm blow itself out before at
tempting TO enter. That the maiden
voyage of the big turbine was in every
way successful was the expressed opin-
ion of many of the passengers. De-
spite the severe weather faced, even
speed was maintained throughout the
voyage. The days runs were 403, 317,
305, 399, All, 457, 434 and II.
The size of the Carmania may be
partly realized from the fact that she
has accommodations for 3106 persons,
1856 passengers and crew of 450 men.
She is CSC feet in length, of 10000 tons
displacement and has eight decks. She
has triple screws and made 1919 knots
an hour on her builders trial trip. She
is sister ship except as to power of
the Cunarder Caronia.

Universal Suffrage to
Be Denied
Belief That Ministry of
Witte Will Fall
Situation Considered by All Exceed.
ingly ominous-Gen. Parsenoff
Says He Expects to See
"Rivers of Blood"

BY Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG. Sunday. Dec. 10.
via Eydtkuhnen, East Prussia, Dec II.
1t is learned on high authority that
the government has fgnally decided
against universal suffrage and prac-
tically in favor of the old project of
twenty-one workmen representatives.
and the extension of the ballot to the
small rent payers, merchants and the
educated classes. However, the law
must still pass She council of the en-
pire and receive imperial approval. If
the decision is upheld it is apt to end
all question of support of the zemst-
volsts.
The railroad men claim they have
been informed that several sections OF
the southwestern systems have already
responded to the appeal for a general
strike. Cooler heads, however, are adj
vising against precipitate action which
might result in failure and are urging
postponement of action until the organ
iZatons throughout the country have
been consulted.
1t is believed that if the attempt at
Liberals, who are dIsgusted with the
tactics of the revolutionists, fearing
anarchy, and are inclined to support
the government, will surely be driven
back into the camp of the extremists.
Premier Witte's friends declare en-
phatically that he has never been in
favor of armed repression, and they
intimate strongly that the arrests OF
the strike leaders must be charged to
Interior Minister Durnovo, who in
sisted that he had proof which could
be established in the courts that M.
Krustaleff was planning an armed
revolution and that beside attempting
to subvert the government he had at
tackled its credit in circulars advising
the workmen and peasants to withdraw
their funds from the savings banks.
Notwithstanding this, doubt is eX-
pressed as to whether NJ. Durnovo can
establish his case, as the specific law
making agitation for political strikes
which interfere with the railroads, tele-
graphs, posts, etc. criminal offense
has not yet been promulgated. 1t is eX-
pected, however. that the law will be
promulgated before the end of the
week. when, it is said, the government

NEW YORK IN SERIOUS
DANGER FROM FIRES
DEFECTS IN DEPARTMENT AND
IN WATER SUPPLY
Committee of National Board of Un=
derwrlters Completes Its Report.
Says There Is Decided Opportunity
for Sweeping ConfIagratlon
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE Journal
of Commerce today says:
lhe city of New York from n fire
protection standpoint is i'm a very seri-
Gus condition, as is shown by the Just
completed report of the committee of
twenty of the national board of under
writers. There are several vital de-
fects in the various branches of the
fire department and water supply,
which at any time in combination may
form very grave menace to the
greater part of the city
with It's vast congestion of values
and narrow and obstructed streets in
the business section, taken in connec-
tion with a dangerously unreliable fire
alarm system, insufficient water supply
and poor distribution, causing ex-
tremely low pressure in some localities,
absence of n sufficient number of fire
engines and inefficiency of some of
those in use, there is decided oppor-
tunity for a sweeping contlagration in
this city The committees engineers
have completed a very careful exam
ination OF the entire city and the re-
suit of their findings is confirmed by
Capt John S. Sewell of the corps of
engineers, u. S. A., who was detailed
by President Roosevelt to assist in the
work of the committee.
Capt. Sewall says, in part:
THE type and occupancy of build
ings prevailing in the worst sections,
their mutual exposures, the narrow
ness OF streets, inadequacy of water
supply and distribution, together with
the enormous values involved, combine
to make of the situation in Manhattan
by far the most serious danger of a
conhagration it has ever seen. Tire
conclusion is inevitable tina; the mag
nificent personnel of the fire department
has been the only thing that has pre-
vented sweeping contlagrations i'll the
past
"In view OF the enormous interests
involved and the almost International
character of the catastrophe which
would be represented by sweeping
conflagration in Manhattan, no time
should be lost in putting into effect all
the proposed improvements and all the
recommendations in this report or
their full equivalent
The report is issued under the aus
pices of the committee of twenty of
the board of underwriters which was
appointed shortly after the Baltimore
conflagration with a view to investigat-
ing the fire protection of the various
cities of the country

LIVELY DEBATES

Tillman Offers Bill Authorizing Inter-

Maximum Rates-Approprl
Measure Goes to Committee
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press

spirited debates on the subjects of rail-
road rate legislation arising through

tion bill to a committee, today's session
or the senate continuously proved in
teresting for over four hours
An adjournment was taken without a.
mention of the late Senator Mitchell
Of Oregon, and so for the first time
the death of a senator was permitted
to pass unnoticed by the senate.
Ihe erasure of Mr.. Mtchell's name
from the rolls followed. Chaplain Hale
recalled the situation to mind in his
prayer by referring pointedly to cor
ruption and death and by praying that
members of the senate be given
strength to bear each others burdens.
The debate on the Tillman bill was
engaged in by a number of senator's
Ni' rOrdher declared that the bill
proved that it's author believed the
present laws were sufficient to correct
all alleged transportation evils except
excessive rates and that there was
ample provision for the punishment of
rebate giving. Mr.. Tillman responded
that he thought the laws sufficient
until the investigation begun by
Messrs. Harmon and Judson into the
Santa Fe case had terminated in a
pitiable fiasco. Mr.. Foraker asserted
that the law could not be blamed if
"some person fell short in his duty"
He intimated in his discussion that
there would be some extended contro-
verses before the railroad rate bills
were disposed OF this session.
After more than n score of senator's
had discussed the Panama bill it was
referred to the appropriations commit

Congressman Longworth and Miss

guarded their secret closely and too
persistent questioning brought from
both of them a plain intimation that
1t was nobodys business what their

Congressman Longworth was one of
