IN THE HOUSE.

Washington, Dec. Avery little be-
sides the organization of the house
will be accomplished the first week of
the session, although it is possible that
an emergency appropriation for the
Panama canal may be passed the last
of this week. Until the committees arc
appointed such bill would have to be
considered by unanimous consent or i'm
der a special order. 1t will depend
upon the needs Of the canal finances
whether the emergency appropriation
will be rushed through this week or
go over until the following week.
The leaders of the house have been
informed that the emergency appropri-
alton will not be needed until Dec. Is,
and consequently the bill may not be
passed until next week. 4
Speaker Cannon has not yet completed
his committees but it is expected he
will be ready to announce them early in
the session.

SEED DEAL LERS HAVE
a BIG KICK COMING

Washington, Dec Thirty of the
leading seed dealers Of the country have
sent President Roosevelt a petition pro-
testing against the free distribution Of
the seeds by members Of congress, and
urging him to include in his message
paragraph Disappearing the present
practice and recommending that only
the intent of tile original act authorizing
seed distribution be the future policy.
This intent the petition says, was that
The seeds should BE obtained from re-
mote corners Of the earth and be i'm
known to the people of tliis country
and be for the purpose Of increasing
the wealth of tlle nation The petit
TONERS allege that the present practice

TO make careful investigation of the
subject of citizenship and 1atura1iza-
ton. He reports its findings, showing
the terrible abuses it has found, and
recommends appropriate legislation
for their cure. Ss .zs.s -. r..
= The gross extravaganza and even
graft which have been found to flourish
are subjects for especial condemnation.
Secretary Hitchcock's course II,
bringing to justice the influential men
who were guilty of land frauds is
warmly approved. The president finds
considerable saving can be made in the
administration Of the government, and
refers to the necessity Of making ap-
preparations in such manner as will
enable purchases OF government sup
plies in large lots rather than by each
department as in the past. H. -
ss The conditions in the insular posses
sioris-the Philippines and Porto Rico
are not as reassuring as they were
wher congress met last year, and it is
anticipated that the president will dis
cuss the so-called insular question with
that frankness which he applies to all
questions. In his last two messages to
congress he asked that the Philippines
be knit closer to the United States by
tariff agreements, and it is probable
that he will renew that plea. ~. -, Il
Congress will be asked to take vigor-
Gus steps to enable the United States
to participate in the new markets to
be opened up in the far east. Presi-
dent Roosevelt believes that special
commission should be authorized to
study the entire subject of oriental
trade. Congress has repeatedly ignor-
ed recommendations OF this character,
but it is believed that recent develop
Ilients have aroused the whole world
to the Situation to such an extent that
the matter cannot longer be ignored.
The president is gratified at the sub
stailtial increases which have been
made in the navy. and believes the
work should not stop. He refers to
the lessons OF the .Risso-Japanese war
as gindicating the battleship and con-
ours in the recommendation of the
general board OF the navy that three
new battlcships be, authorized. The
president believes that the United
States should not be behind other ma
tiofis which are now building 1900
ton battleships i'll the belief that that
larger type is to dominate in future
naval actions. .& s., H. ...

GREAT ALARM IS
FELT AT ST. PETERSBURG

st. Petersburg, Dec. 2, I p. m, via
Berlin, Dec. 4.-Intense alarm prevails
here. Communication with the outer
world by telegraph ceased this morn
ing when the Finnish operators joined
their Russian comrades.
The embassies. legations and banks
are hastily organizing courier services
to both the Finnish and German 'front.'
iers.f .%5 H.. w. ~
The population is almost in a state
OF panic, fearing that the railroads will
stop running and that the inhabitants
therefore will have no mode OF flight
in the event OF the cataclysm which
they seem to fear is imminent.
Stories OF the spread of disaffection
IN the guard regiments are i'm every
body's mouth and the revohtionaries
continue TO boast that the troops viii
no longer fire on the people.
This morning newsboys were openly
hawking fly sheets in the streets con-
tanning an account of an alleged revolt
at Tsarskoe-Seio and crying out 'the
emperor's palace guard has mutinied.r =
The air is also filled with stories Of
the alleged revolution at the palace FRI
day in which Grand Duke Boris is said
to have attempted the life OF the em-
peror. These stories likewise are tn-
true. but they. prove that a revolution
in the palace is considered possible at
any time. sss.y. /. :, n, s,g .s54
This situation has greatly increased
the dangers OF a financial crash. The
people, even the commercial interests,
are Withdrawing their money from the
banks, converting it into gold, hoard
ing it or demanding foreign exchange
which the state bank is issuing upon
the foreign balances OF the govern
rnert. Exchange on London yester-
day rose TO $50. over rouble above

rs the most comprehensive message
President Roosevelt has ever submitted
to congress. 1t covers a large variety
of subjects, internal and external, and
pays particular attention to the sub
ject Of railroad rate legislation and
federal supervision Of corporations.
Railroad rate legislation is said to
BE the most prominent feature OF the
message. The pesident has pointed out
in great detail the evils. now existing;
and the necessity for their eradication
As a remedy he proposes that the in
terstate commerce commission shall be
authorized in declaring rate tinrea-
sonable, to declare at the same time
what is maximum, reasonable rate,
and to make an order requiring the Of
Tending railroad to reduce its rate, to
that maximum. He further recon-
meilds that in order to insure obedi-
ence to the order, tile law contain a
penalty, but that opportunity be re-
served to the company to appeal to the
federal court whose decision shall be
final. The president also seeks the
regulation oil the private car and ter
rninal interests so that discrimination

Corporations IS a subject which has
been given serious consideration by the
president. He believes corporations
should be managed with due regard
TO the interests OF the public as a
whole. In his message he strongly
urges proper legislation BY congress.
In this connection attention IS called
to prosecutions which have been con-
ducted by the department Of justice,
particularly the beef trust cases Ilie
president describes what has been done
to punish the men who took part in this
combination Railroad prosecutions
which have been begun in Milwaukee
and ST. Louis are also referred to in
connection with the activity Of the
department of justice in enforcing the
existing statutes. n n
