RUSSIAN CHRISTMAS
 SAD ONE FOR PEOPLE
PITIFUL SEMBLANCE OF HOLI- DAY ATTIRE IN ST. PE-
 TERSBURG.

WOrkmen Exhausted by the Strikes
 Are Without Money and Even Christi
 mas Trees Holidays, However,
 Promise ut Least Superfclally a
 I.tI;Od of Conspicuous Quiet--PrOIe..
 tariat Organizations Decide to Cease
 Activity Until They Are Over--Situ-
 ation Still Very Serious in Baltic
 Provinces
 St. Petersburg, Jan. 5.--The Russians love nothing so much as their holidays, but, depressed in spirit and purse in these revolutionary days, the celebra- tion of the Russian Christmas, on Sun day next, will be sad one The streets of the capital have put on pitiful semblance of holiday attire but none of the heavy buying characteristic of the prodigal Russians in former days is in evidence, while in the industrial sec- tions the workmen, exhausted by long 
 series of strikes are without money for Christmas trees. The green trees and gewgaws were brought into the city by the country people, but the trees re- main unbought in the streets. The holidays, however promise at least superflcially period of conspicu- ous quiet. the proletariat organizations ~aH1A-'--1 ---a-SsA , having decided to refrain from activity until they are ended.
 St. Petersburg, Jan, 6.--1;55 a. rn.- The Associated Press has been permit ted to inspect report prepared for the | emperor regarding the situation in the Baltic provinces. The report declares that though open revolt has been crush ed in many parts of the provinces and ! though the local authorities who were deposed by the revolutionists are re- suming the reins of government under the protection of troops, the situation is still a very serious one.
 In the districts of Dorpat and Pernau in northwestern Livonia, the troops are unable to move except in heavy force 1 A body of cavalry which made a fore ed light march from Walk, surprised an 1 insurgent band at Rueu, but the peas ants resisted until their ranks had been torn and shattered by artillery, when they surrendered their arms and their leaders. There is a strong concen- traitor of insurgents in the villages Of Meizekul and Lemcal, further to the westward, which must be attacked and broken up. A band of insurgents at- tackled General Orloff and his escort Of a squadron of cavalry near Marienburg but the attack was repulsed and the leader captured, The latter was imme- diately tried by drumhead court martial l and shot.
 The advices received by the govern ment report the capture of an import ant arsenal of the revoiutionists at Te- mernik, in southern Russia, in which were found not only rifles, bombs and explosives but also a small field piece I Another arsenal near Nakhitchevar caught fire and an explosion followed resulting in the killing of twelve ant the wounding of nine.

Supreme Council Files Demurrer to
 Reynolds Suit.

Boston, Jan. 5.-The supreme council of the Royal Arcanum filed in the equi- ty session of the supreme court to-day a demurrer and answer to the suit brought by Stephen w.

 The demerrur which, it is expressly stipulated, is not intended for delay, at tacks the plaintiffs bill on the ground that it does not show any illegality or invalidity in the amendments of the laws of the order or any violation by the supreme council of any legal or equitable right of the plaintiff.
 The answer argues that the new rates are reasonable and necessary to assure the ability of the order to meet its ob- legations.
