Fifty points up one day and twenty

WILL PROCEED
With CONTEST
Testimony to Be Taken at
Once in Peabody Case in
Legislature of Colorado

DENVER, Jan. 17.-At a joint ses-
sion of the two houses of the Gen.
eral Assembly this afternoon to take
action on the contest filed by James
HI. Peabody for the office of Gov
ernor. the request of the attorneys for
Governor Adams for an extension un-
til 2:30 o'clock on Saturday afternoon
of the time in which to submit an
answer made in the contest papers
was granted by vote of 81 to "a.
BY the same vote the Legislature
decided to proceed at once with the
taking of testimony in the contest.
On motion of Senator Parks a COM
mittee of five was appointed by Lieu
tenant Governor Mcdonald, who pre-
sided over the joint session, to draft
a set of rules and regulations which
shall govern the order of the contest.
The committee is composed of three
Republicans and two Democrats.
Attorney Waldron, appearing for
Governor Peabody, said he wished to
be understood as not opposing any
reasonable request by Governor
Adams. He argued, however, that the
circumstances required no written
pleadings, and he was clearly of the
opinion that any extension of time
gained would result in delay and
prove fatal to the cause for which
the Joint session had been called.
Both Governor Adams and his at
torneys protested vigorously against
immediate action by the Legislature,
asserting that the proceedings would
necessitate his presence and that OF
his counsel and probably preclude a
proper and thorough investigation of
the charges filed against him and a
satisfactory answer thereto.

LONDON. Jan. 17.-The correspond
ent of the express at Nagasaki had an
interesting interview with General
Stoessei, in the course of which the
general said:
The capitulation occurring on New Years
day was merely coincidence. The loss of
203- Meter Hill and the subsequent capture OF
forts combined with the deadly marlsfna nship
with the terrible IL 1-inch shells, the depressing
effect of the death Of General Kondratenko and
the fearful increase Of scurvy really fixed the
time Of capitulation. 1t is quite untrue that
I dissented from the unanimous decision of the
final. council Of war.
AS. regards parole, distinctly discouraged
any concerted action. Every officer decided
for himself Generally commanding officers
stayed with their men and chose imprison-
ment. Most of the naval officers also chose
captivity, many probably being influenced by
the fear of impending court-martial

heard, but no words having been re-
ceived by them, the bill was forwarded
at once. Senator Kittridge will report
the House bill tomorrow.
Immediately after the Senate con-
vened to-day, Perkins presented and
