KANSAS CITY MARKET
A Review of Prices and Conditions of
 the Past Week.

Kansas City, Mo-, Dec 17.-Cattle receipts last week were larger than were expected, nearly 1000 head and the market on range cattle held about steady, stockers and feeders closing for the week 1Oc higher. Some high class yearlings from the Panhandle sold at $3.90 to $4.15, and choice Colorado yearlings sold at $4.00. A feature of the market was the strength maintain ed by country grades in the face of lower prices for feed steers. However, packers were heavy buyers of fat steers all week and were willing to take more, as was shown by the strong close of the week on fed steers on account of smaller receipts Thursday and Friday. Killing steers from the range sold at $3.25 to $3.75, while country grades sold around $3.50, except for the choice yearlings mentioned above. Cows sold at $250 and $29O with some choice Col orado cows at $3.10, heifers at $40, canners at s2.00 to S2.35 The cattle supply today is again liberal at 15,000 head, market barely steady on fed grades, while stockers and feeders are strong and active. Some of the heavy feeders have stayed out thus far this fall, small operators taking the bulk of the stuff, but the big men begin to think they have made a mistake, and many of them are trying to complete arrangements for putting something on feed for the spring or summer market. This has made a strong stocker and feeder market for the last two or three weeks, and indicates that the general feeling in the country regarding future cattle markets is optimistic.
 Sheep receipts last week were 24,O00, supply today 6,000. The market ad vanced 10 to 15 cents on sheep last week and 15 to 25 cents on yearlings and lambs. Trade is active at strong prices, and some new figures are be- ing established. San Luis valley year. lings sold at S6.60 yesterday "A pounds, while some heavier weights sold at $6.30 to $6.40 last week Fed western lambs sold at $7.15 to $7.40, straight weathers at $6.10, ewes at $500 to $5.25. Fancy ewes have sold up to $5.75 late ly and choice lambs would bring above $7.50. Packers make every effort to secure concessions from the present high range and are occasionally sue cessful but the market immediately re- covers and the situation Is strong near ly all the time Feeding lambs sold at $5.50 to $5.S5 last week and number of consignments of goats at $325 to s3.50, kids at $500 to $5.40.

SENATE PLANS.

Washington. Dec. 1.-The senate will meet the wishes of the house for adjournment for the Christmas hOli- days on Thursday next. Meantime the senate will probably content itself with comparatively little work unless there should be difficulty in agreeing with the house on the terms of the Panama canal emergency appropriation bill. That measure will go to a conference committee early in the week and there will be a united effort to reach a con clusion before the holiday adjourn ment. The action of the senate in at tempting to eliminate the bond prOvis- ion and make a separate law of it will probably be the principal bone of con tention in the conference committee.
 The reorganization of the senate committees will be effected tomorrow. or Tuesday. Senator Gallinger will make an effort during the week to have the merchant marine bill made unfin- ished business, not with a view of se- curing serious consideration before Christmas, but with the end in view of having it in a position to be pressed when congress recOnvenes.

Which the People Fear Will Take the Place
 of the "Red'
Indications that the Government Will Undertake to Put Down the Strike and Other Disorders With the Sever iy of Old Times.

police, who are hunting them down. The government evidently anticipates a battle royal and has made its deposi- tions accordingly. It fully understands that the proletariat will give blow for blow in answer to the wholesale ar rests.
 The wor kmens council and the league of leagues on Saturday night issued a declaration of a general strike to begin immediately and consequently by the imperial ukase published this morning all governors general, governors and projects throughout the empire who are cut off by telegraph are clothed with almost dictatorial powers, being au- thorized without consulting St. Peters burg to declare a state of seize and if necessary even martial law. As most of the provincal authorities are react ionary officials of the old regime, the advantage they will take if such power to terroriZe the pOpulace can be easily imagined, they being in a position to become petty monarchS and to wage war, each in his own particular fash ion against the revolutionists.
 The Novoe Vremya was the only pa per- with the exception of the Official Messenger, to appear today and in the center of the first page is half col umn of blank paper, showing where the censor had forbidden an article. The Novoe Vremya seeded from the pub fishers union and was published under the protection of the police and Cos sacks. The Slovo and Novosti, two other papers that have not suspended publication, were unable to appear as the printers walked out in obedience to the orders of the council of workmen because these papers refused to print the manifesto of the proletariat organ ization.
 Although practically all the ring lead CTS of the proletariat organization were arrested on Saturday night, the re- sourcefulness of the council of work men was proved by the fact that in less than an hour a new council, the head of which is NJ Lenient, editor of the New Life. had replaced the old and elected officers. The editors of newspapers suspended for publishing

the proletariat organizations manifes- to, including the famous M. Hessen, of the Pravo, were with the single eXcep- ton of Prof. Milukoff who managed to evade arrest, taken into custody. M. SouvOrin, editor of the Russ, furnished $5,0C0 bail and was released.
 In addition to a general strike 1t IS understood the revolutionists will have acses to the old methods of fighting the government. It is stated that the ter rorist organization held a meeting in the. early hours of this morning.
 Count Witte's life is considered to be in danger and the annex of the pal ance where he is residing, is heavily guarded. The most significant news comes from Tsarskoe- Selo, where, in view of the resolution of the govern mont to put it's foot down on the strike. a regular campaign i3 being conducted with the purpose of firing the loyalty of the guard regim .nts.

 M. Nomechaieff, minister of commu- nications, has issued orders to the chiefs of all railroads not to recognize organizations of railroad men, partic ularly cautining them not to allow the passage of the leaders of the organiZa- tions who heretofore have been using railway telegraph lines to transmit their instructions.
 The government has chosen a deS- perate movement to repress the prolet- ariat. It is fighting for it's life m the Baltic region, where a rev"'+ = admit ted to be in full blast with almost prac- tical certainty that if it cannot be crushed, it's flames will spread to Po land. The native population of the an cient kingdom of LithUania is Tnade up of headstrong people, who having rais- ed the banner of revolt, will fight to the bitter end.
 At Moscow the government is con- fronted with a mutiny of troops so se- rious that it has been obliged to send a regiment of cavalry from St. Peters burg to aid in the suppression of the mutineers. The government today sue ! ceeded in restoring cable communica- tion abroad but it is utterly unable to guarantee how long it will be able to keep the cables in operation. Petitions from the nobility of Riga, Winuau, Libau and other places in the Baltic provinces have been received , by the government imploring it to abolish martial law which the peti- tions say is only inflaming the situa- tion. The editors of the Signal and several other satirical papers of mush- room growth, which have been print ing the most outrageous cartoons of imperial personages have been arrested, charged with lese majeste.

thedral where they arrived during the progress of service and up the steps of which they marched singing the "Marseillaise.H Here the motley crowd was joined by contingents from other quarters, and all, to the number of some three thousand, began filing into the cathedral silently and respectfully, making an incongruous picture in con- trast with the fashionably dressed wor- shippers. Such a scene has not been witnessed at St. Paurs since twenty years ago, when John Burns, now president of the local government board, led a similar demonstration to the cathedral.
 Although the preacher made sympa- thetic references to the problem of the unemployed, the men became tired long before the service ended and most of them filed out. Some of the leaders delivered addresses from the steps and the demonstration was quietly dispers- ed.

NERVE OF THE ROBBERS.
Travelled on the Train After Holding
 IT Up.

Portland, Oreg., Dec. IA special from North Yakima, Wash, to the Oregonian says: "The robbers who held up the North Coast limited at Hillside siding at the Yakima canyon, eleven miles north of here, evidently boarded the train while at this place, as the train did not stop until it was compelled to do so by the robbers at Hillside siding. A boy is being held at Ellensburg, who was on the blind baggage. He says the two men got on top of the mail car at this place and rode to Hillside siding. At that point they climbed down from the car to the rear of the tender, while the train was running at full speed.
 The engineer and fireman did not see them until they pointed guns into their faces and demanded of them to stop the train. The fireman was or Gered back to cut loose the express and mail car, which he did. The en- gineer then pulled the two cars about a half mile up the road, and he and the fireman being taken back to the express car, the engineer was ordered to place a stick of dynamite under the door. This exploded, but two shots were necessary to blow open the car The engineer was forced to enter the car ahead of one of the robbers, and five shots were used before the two safes were blown open.
 After gathering up the valuables and placing them in his pocket the robber jumped out of the car, and joining his companion, the two started down the track toward the passenger coaches. This smorning glove was found on the hillside and two pairs of overalls were picked out of the river. AS each man was dressed in overalls, it is be- lieved they discarded them and then boarded the passenger train and went with it to Ellensburg or farther west. The sheriff's posse have not yet found any clue to the identity of the two men.

DYNAMITED
 AN N. P. TRAIN
An Unknown Quantity of
 Booty Secured
Two Bandit Passengers Who Merely Made the Robbery an Incident of Their Journey.

Spokane, Dec. 17.-The North Coast limited express No. l, west bound, was held up and robbed fifteen miles west of North Yakima, Wash, last night. Two masked men compelled the engi- neer to stop the train, run the lccomo tive, mail, and express car half a mile west of the balance of the train, dyna- mited the express car, shattered the through and local safes, and decamp- ed with the contents. The amount of the plumber obtained is unknown. Tne contents of the through safe are known only at the terminal points. No report was received tonight of the contents of the local safe, but they are declared to have been light, as the train does comparatively little local business.
 The sheriffs of Yakima and Kittitas counties sent out posses in pursuit of the bandits. The passengers were not molested and none were injured. No report was received as to shots being fired.
 No. l, limited, passed Spokane at noon yesterday enroute to the Sound. At Hillside station, fifteen miles west of North Yakima, two men climbed over the tender of the engine into the cab and presented guns at the heads of the engine crew. The engine, ten der express and mail cars were cut off, run down the track and stopped. One man stood guard over the train crew while the second attached eXplo siVes to the express car doors. Both were blown from their fasteninSs. The bandits attacked both safes of the eX press car. One is known as the through safe and is built into the car at the shops. The contents are locked up at the point of departure and are only removed at the terminal. The strong box was shattered and the contents removed. The nature and extent of the pIunder secured in the through safe is not known to the local officials of the Northern Pacific. The local safe was shattered and such valuables as it contained were taken. It is said that these were of trifiing value.
 Reports received at the general of fices of the Northern Pacific state that both men were masked and heav- fly armed. On releasing the trainmen, both robbers went in the direction of North Yakima

St. Petersburg, Dec. 17.-An imperial rukase issued today empowers all gov ernors general and municipal authori- ties in the event of railway, postal or telegraph communication being inter- fered with to proclaim modified mar tial law. Under the ukase military commanders will automatically become governors general. Martial law may be ended only by order of the minister of the interior at St. Petersburg.
 The government issued a communi- cation stating that it considers the de- mands and complaints of the railway employees to a large extent justified, and that the miniter of ways and conn munications is therefore drafting meas ures for an amelioration of these con- ditions In view of the extra e;lpendi- ture that necessarily will be entailed thereby. the communication says all these reforms cannot be carried out simultaneously, but the minister of ways and communications is devoting his attention to the most pressing among them, and the council of min isters has sanctioned the inclusion of s7.500.G coo in the 1906 budget of esti- mates to meet the extra expenditures under these measures.

THE MASSACRE TOMORROW.
There is Wild Alarm in the Ancient
 Capital.

Moscow, Dec. r (By telephone to St. Petersburg.)-There is intense alarm among the population nere over the news from St. Petersburg of the inauguration of the government of a policy of repression.
 The troops of the garrison are in open mutiny, and there are fears of a massacre by the "black hundred" on Tuesday next. The Rostroff grenadier mutineers continue to hold the fort under the command of Private Schal- aroff, who acted as president of the soldiers meeting. In the windows of the barracks mounted machine guns are defying the Sumysha regiment and other loyal troops, which surround the mutineers.
 Three other grenadier regiments, the Ekaterinostlav, the Laurid and the Nesvich, and the artillery garrison are in full sympathy with their Rostroff comrades and have compelled ali their officers to leave the barracks and have selected representatives, who are in communication with the nutineers.
 The loyal troops are practically con fined to the Cossacks. The mutineers have formally presented to General Plavoffski, the division commander, a series of demands, principally relating to the service, but including also po- litical reforms and they have issued an appeal to the soldiers of the garrison to join in the fight for improved con- ditions. Accompanying the demands is the ultimatum that if they are not granted by Tuesday next the mutt neers will march out into the streets and parade the city. General Play offski has promised to present the res olutions to his superior officers.
 The text of the appeal issued by the mutineers is as follows: "All Russia has risen against the government, which has involved the country in a uselss war and brought it to the verge of ruin. We soldiers are firmly de- termined to break down the tyrrany of our commanders and to compel a reform in the army. Now is the time for soldiers to awake. Comrades, we summon you to dismiss your officers and assume command until your grieV- ances are redressed. All for one and one for all. Hurrah for a free people! Hurrah for the army!"
 The inclusion in the appeal of the motto of the socialists, "All for one and one for all," shows that it was prepared under the supervision of the socialistic committee or by socialist ts inside the barracks of the Rostroff grenadiers. Colonel Semanovski, of the grenadiers, overcome by shame, | sent his sword to the emperor and re- signed. It is reported that he has com mitted suicide.
 The formal demands of the soldiers include amnesty for all participants in the mutiny, freedom of soldiers meet l ings, the abolition of death penalties, the reduction of service to two years, the abolition of military courts, the exemption of reservists and their fam lilies from payment of taxes, increased pay and the return of the army from
 Manchuria.
 There was a serious affray in the Stretenka boulevard, in the center of
 the city, last night. A squadron of Cossacks fired on a band of revolu- I tionaries, killing or wounding dozen
 persons. The revolutionaries killed 1 two Cossacks.
