WILL OPEN BALLOT BOXES.
Supreme Court Orders investigation Of
Colorado Election.

The supreme court of Colorado has
ordered an investigation so sweeping
In its scope that every phase Of the
election may be scrutinized and every
thing that bears in any way upon the
election may be made known by judi
cial inquiry.
Alva Adams, Democratic candidate
for governor, who appeared from the
returns to have been elected, but who
has declared that he does not want the
office tainted with fraud, asked the
court to open every Denver ballot box
but the order of the court goes be-
yond the mere examination of the bal
lots nd provides for an investigation
of the registration lists, the campaign
expenditures and, In brief, all election
matters.
AS there are 204 ballot boxes 1t is
evident that several months will be
consumed in the examination of their
contents by the two handwriting ex.
perts to be appointed for this work.
1t is expected that the supreme court
will be asked to make an order placing
special watchers at the court house to
guard the registration books until
such time as the investigation is made.

William viii Suppress Brutality.

Emperor William of Germany 10
sued a decree a few days ago ordering
the adoption of strict measures for the
prevention of maltreatment OF soldiers.
1t directs that special care be taken
In advancing prlvates to the rank of
non-commissioned officers, and forbids
the advancement of those who have
shown an inclination to brutal behav-
Tor and also those whose near relatives
In non-commissloued positions have
proved themselves guilty OF maltreat-
ment.

A DEFICIT OF $22,OOO,OOO |
UNCLE SAM GETS INTO DEBT
DURING LAST YEAR.
Government Receipts Fall OF, While
Expenditures Are Increased, Large
ly Through Panama Deal.

The treasury department has issued
review of treasury operations Tor
the calendar year 1904. The treasury
receipts for the calendar year 1904
were s54O,OOO,OOO, and the expendi-
lures (including the Panama pay
ment), s562, OOO, O00--a deficit for the
year of s22,OOO,OOO.
AS compared with the previous cal
endar year, the receipts show falling
off of $S,00O,000 and the expendi-
lures an increase of $5O,OOO,OOO.
The decrease in customs receipts
was 100000. Civil and miscel.
laneous expenditures increased $751;
100000; war department, 100000;
navy department, s23,O00,000; pen
sions, s2,0O0,OOO, and interest, $1,000
900.
The increase in interest is due to
the fact that portion Of the inter-
est of 1903 was anticipated in 1902.
The figures do not include the pos
tai receipts and expenditures, except
that the postal deficit is included in
the civil and miscellaneous expendi.

RUSSIANS FEAR REVOLUTION
EmPERoR's NOTE OF WARNING
CAUSES BITTER FEELING.
Fear Expressed That Moscow May Yet
be the Scene Of Bloody uprls-
ing Of the Downtrodden People.

Il is evident from the reports re-
ceived from the interior of Russia that
the fairly good impression produced
by the imperial manifesto on the sub
iect of reforms may be more than OFF,
set in many places by the effect Of the
government note of warning to the
zemstvos. Private reports from Mos
COW especially indicate that much ex-
citement prevails there and the gray.
est fears are expressed that the an
cient capital of Russia may be the
scene of bloody excuses.
A banquet arranged to take place
there Wednesday night on the ami
yersary of the Troubetzskoi revolu-
ton was stopped by order Of the po-
lice and the Moscow zemstvo ad-
journed sine die as a protest against.
the government note and the return or
the Grand Duke Sergius, the COVER
nor general of Moscow. The grand
duke is held to be responsible for the
notes which may signal renewal OF
terrorism.
The Pskoff zemstvo has also fol-
lowed the lead of those of Chern;goff
and Moscow, and it is not unlikely
that others will follow the example.
Altogether the moment is considered
critical, although the feeling in st.
Petersburg is quieter.
The papers are not disposed to re-
gard the injunction to refrain from
discussing political matters. Under
cover of commenting on the mani
festo, which Trey readily accept in a
spirit Of hopefulness, they do not hest
tate to point out the vagueness of its
terms and the lack of guarantees.

Use Dynamite at Port Arthur.

1t is understood that the Japanese
dynamiting and paralleling against the
eastern section of Port Arthur is pro-
crossing favorably. The right wing
of the besiegers continues heavy and
effective Smelling of the now town pre-
paratory to operations which are now
nearing completion. 1t is probable that
the next attack will be simultaneously
directed against the east and west
faces OF the fortress in an endeavor
to divide and weaken the resistance
OF the defenders.

viii Try Three Cent Fares.

President Horace e. Andrews OF the
Cleveland (Ohio) Electrical Railway
conn ny has signified the willingness
of his company to try an experiment
in 3-cent fares for a distance Of two
miles from the center of the city on
the lines of that road. The 3-cuut cars
will run only in the Scent district.
The scent cars will go the regular dis
lance. The experiment is the first OF
its kind in the country, and Is OF spe-
cial interest in street car circles. No
transfer will be given for a 3-cent fare.

Months of Fighting.
After months Of fighting, sapping

cember 2S.
A report received in Toxic from
headquarters of the Third Japanese
army before Port Arthur says:
ION "Wednesday, December 2S, at 10
o'clock in the morning, the left center
column Of our army, following some
heavy explosions on the frontal para
pet of Rihlung mountain, charged and
occupied the parapet under cover OF
fire from heavy guns and constructed
defense works despite the enemy's
fierce fire.
AT o'clock in the afternoon, when
our occupation was practically com
plete, we charged and occupied the in
ner lines of heavy gun positions, sub
sequently dislodging a remnant of the
enemy's force stpbbornly holding the
gorge fort, which we occupied, and
captured the entire works"

GUARDS KILLED coNvIcTa
Desperate Attempt OF Prisoners to Es-
cape From California Prison
Frustrated.

A number Of prisoners at the state
penitentiary at Folsom, Cal, made a
desperate attempt to escape on Thurs
day afternoon, and as result seven
Of nine convicts who had planned to
get away, were almost riddled with
bullets. Three are dead and three in
a critical condition.
Captain r. j. Murphy is wounded by
shot in the leg and received two
slight knife wounds.
The break was similar in plan to
the big emeute of last July, but the
fact that it was within range of the
guns of seven reliable guards, all dead
shots, and one of these within fifty
feet, makes it more bold and desperate.
The convicts who engaged in the
break were all employed in the rock
crusher, where 1926 of the most desper-
ate prisoners were at work. Captain
Murphy was acting as general over
seer about the rock crusher and four
other prison attaches, l.. DAILY, M. Ho-
gan, Charles Taylor and Charles Jolly.
we're employed as "pushers" to keep
the men at work.
A large sledge hammer was thrown
into the crusher, causing the ponder
Gus machine to come to standstill.
This attracted Captain Murphy, Chas
Jolly and Taylor to the place imme-
diately. Thereupon the convicts rushed
to seize Murphy, jolly and Taylor.
They succeeded only in catching the
two first mentioned. The others en-
deavored to take the other free men,
who managed to escape them.
During this time the scene OF trouble
was under cover and the guards on
the outside could not see the strug-
Cling men. The convicts with their
captives made their way toward a
small post commanded by Guard w. H.
Harris, who was armed with a rife.
Five of the gang surrounded Captain
Murphy and two of them had Jolly.
The convicts had knives in position
for immediate use, but had no sooner
stepped into the open than the seven
guards began firing, and within twenty
seconds seven of the convicts were on
the ground helpless.
The convicts approached Guard Har
ris, who stood ready to act according
to the standing orders to shoot re.
CARELESS of consequences. When with
in forty feet of the outside guards, one
of the convicts gave the command
Hand out your gun, or we will stab
Murphy to the heart"
Instead of handing out the rifle, Har'
ris sent bullet into the fellows body,
and he fell to the ground. In quick sue.
cession Harris fired at each of the re-
naming convicts, who were trying to
shield themselves behind Murphy and
Jolly.
At the time the first shot was fired,
Warden Yell was in his office. Grab
bling his revolver, he rushed to the
scene. He signaled the guards TO con.
tinue shooting, and he put his revolver
into operation also, at the same time
giving orders to the remaining con
victs, who were crouching behind
rocks and in other safe places, to line
up and march in. This they did in
quick order, going on the run.
