1t is believed the building OF the
electric line to the mines and the
line from Galena to Columbus, via
Baxter Springs, will double the
population of this city within the
next year. This belief is not con.
fined altogether TO BAXTER people,
either. Joplin and Galena people
believe it. Scores of people from
both of these places will move to
Baxter Springs just as soon as they
have a way to get back and forth to
their business. Many Galena peo.
pie have told us they are mighty
tired of seeing dump piles every
morning in the year. They want TO
get somewhere where the air 10 bet.

A DRAMATIC ENDING.
The Closing Scene of the Uprising at
 Moscow.

Moscow, Dec 3f.-White flags flying from a dozen factories and tenement houses of the Presna district, where the revolutionaries made their last stand now bear mute witness to the end of December uprising in Mos COW. The entire district is now occu- pied by troops.
 During the night a vast majority of the members of the fighting legions, either surrendered, after throwing away their arms, and endeavored to escape in guise of peaceful citizens. Only the members who acted as a guard to the revolutionary committee stuck to their colors and the surrender Of this handful this morning furnished the last act of the sanguinary drama.
 The staging of this last act was ad- mirable. A snow covered landscape, a small black residence with tiny red flag huttering from its gable end, the Corbatoff bridge, black with the guns of artillery and the encircling line of the Seminovsky regiment of the guard, broken only directly in the line of fire. Suddenly there was flash of red fire from the mouth of one of the guns and a solid shot ploughed through the walls of the house. A few spluttering shots replied from the window. The cannon spoke again and again until a dozen shots had been fired. It looked like murder to the spectators on the hill, and so evidently thought the officers in command of the battery which ceased fire. A reserve company of the Seminovsky regiment then advanced and fired volleys at the upper windows. At the third vOlley a white handker- chief attached to a bayonet was pushed through a shattered pane. It waved frantically and all was over. The lit tie garrison of thirty marched out and laid down their arms, a strange collec- ton of rifles and repeating shot guns. All had revolvers.
 Strange to say, not one of the men had been wounded, and when they found they would not be immediately executed they appeared to be rather relieved that the end of the struggle had come. The gathered around the soldiers bivouac, stretched their hands

that in cities electoral districts coin eide with police districts gives rise to the outcry that when the country is
 tranquilized" it is the purpose of the government to control the elections. Foreseeing the probability that it would be impossible to hold elections in the Baltic provinces, Caucasus and other disturbed districts, the govern ment has provided that when the cer- tificates of half the members elected are received the douma will be con- Vened immediately
 At a meeting Of the council of work men last night some delegates, pending the organization of sn armed revolu- ton advocated a recourse to the old terrorist plan of instituting a tribunal to try and condemn officials guilty of tyranny to publish reasons for such condemnation and then execute the verdict of the tribunal.
 This, the delegates said, would be preferenable to indiscriminate killing of police and Cossacks who might be innocent. Not satisfied with the pro- lection given by the secret police to Count Witte, whose, life is in con- stant danger, officers of the Preobra- jensky guard regiment were detailed to guard the premier, but on Friday they declined to do further service in this connection, saying that it was be- meath the dignity of guard officers to do police duty.
 With the crushing of the revolt al Moscow it is now transferred to other places where there are armed upris- inSs, especially to south Russia. Prac- tically the entire Black sea Iittoral is under martial aw. The railroad to Crimea is in the hands of the revolu- tiOnaries and troops were ordered to- day to retalIe them at any cost. The situation is extremely bad at Bachs- nut, in White Russia, where the coal fields are located. Berdicheff, the Jewish center of Dvinsk, Kherson. the whole district of Odessa, Alexandrov- sky and the territory along the rail- road between MiZhni NoVgorod and Moscow. were placed under martial law today. The revolt at Samara has been suppressed with much bloodshed.

The Result of a Meeting of Business Men at the Hotel Adams Last Night.

An earnest meeting of a large num- ber of the business men of the city was held in the Hotel Adams ordinary last nignt to further organize the anti jont statehood campaign. General A. J. Sampson presided over tEe meeting and R. S. Goodrich of the territorial anti joint statehood league was secre- tary.
 Strong addresses were made by Gov ernor Kibbey, Chief Justice Kent, Dwight B. Heard, Captain J. L. B. All exander, J. c. Adams, w. B. Cleary, B. A. Packard, c. M. Shannon and others. All of them spoke hopefully of the situation but all were agreed that there was an urgent necessity of action and that it was important that the territory be represented by a good work ng delegation. This action last night is a sufficient answer to the statement mace by the enemies of the territory that there is already a strong g lobby there.
 The discussion at the meeting quick ly took the form of action and the nucleus of the delegation was quickly formed by the offer of a half dozen gentlemen to leave for Washington in a few days at their own expense. The committee having been made up 1t was resolved that credentials be given them by the anti-joint statehood league. In this connection it was also resolved that credentials be sent to former Governor Murphy, B. A. Fowler and Charles c. Randolph, who are all ready in Washington working against the joint statehood bill.
 There was a further resolution em- towering Roy s. Goodrich, a member of the committee, to leave at once for Washington and open headquarters for the committee there. This will re- Guire money and as there will be also other expenses than the personal ex- penditures of the members of the com mittee it was determined to solicit funds in sufficient amount to defray them.
 Accordingly a committee was ap- pointed for this purpose to act in con junction with other committeeman in O her towns of the territory.

EXECUTIVE BUSINESS.
Will Take Up the Two Days of the
 Senate.

Washington, Dec 31-The senate Will not do much legislative business this week. It is not expected that the session will occupy more than two days, Thursday and Friday The shin subsidy bill is unfinished business. and senator BallinGer may open the debate Tn faVor of the measure. This will de- pend upon the desire of the senator who may wish to consider other busi- ness.
 There is a considerable amount of executive business, some of which is in controversy, and this may consume the lew days the senate is in session. At the time of adjournment the con- flrmation of the Panama canal com missioners had been reconsiderel and the nomination of K. B. Bishop. as the new commissioner mad just been made. These nominations had all been re- 1erred to the committee on inter oceanic canals and it is expected early reports will be made and the senate may take them up. There arg some other nominations in controversy. notably two officers of bureaus in tine war department and a legal question has been raised as to the meaning of the law providing for such details. Some other nominations may be held up and the senate may devote all its time this week to executive business.
 Even if the news is not to be con sidered the new developments in Santo Domingo will afford an opportunity.to i,discuss the treaty |. informally. At present tho treaty is. not before the senate, having a = nond time been re ferred to the committcc on fort.s1 rs.- lations. 1t is expected that it will , amended in several particulars befo -o # again comes before the senate. AS if in anticipation of the flight of Mo rales and the establishment of another government in SantO Domingo. the state department mas recommended that the treaty be amended so that it would confer authority upon the United States to deal with the exist ing government in the island. Pos sibly the situation may be discussed in the senate even before the treaty is reported.

Further Preparations for the Elections Removal of the Moscow Movement to the Southern Strong Measures for it's Suppression.

St. Petersburg, Dec. 31.-The report that Count Witte is booked for retire ment in few days is again being per sistently circulated. The Nashi Shisn, which declares it can guarantee the accuracy of it's statement, says M. Durnovo, minister of the interior, who is worshiped as an idol by court cam arilla, which believes that his stern policy alone can put an end to the existing anarchy which has accom- plished the downfall of the count will be elevated to tEe premiership. Investigation by the Associated Press, however. indicates that the report is baseless. It is true that DurnOvo has q powerful cabal of reactiOnaries be- hind him and temporarily seems to dominate the situation.
 NJ. Manukhin. whose sudden retire ment from the ministry of justice ere ated a stir resigned, according to Molva. rather than submit to Durn- ovo's dictation in matters which he re- garded as being strictly within the sphere of his ministry. The reports of
Arizona republican., 1906-01-01

senators who were dispatched to in Vestigate the Jewish and other mas sacres following the imperial mani festo of October 30, should be made to the minister of justice, in order that legal proceedings could be begun against the police and other local au- thorities where found culpable. Dur novo resisted this, declaring that the interior administration belonged to him. When Durnovo was sustained Manukhin resigned and Akymoff, who is brother-in-law of Durnovo, was appointed his successor.
 The government is now proceeding on the theory that victory over the "reds" IS assured. It is displaying q strong front and announces that 1t will no longer tolerate in it's service em- ployes who are plotting against it. Ministers have been authorized sum marily to dismiss such employees.
 The regulations for the preparation of supplementary lists of those en- titled to vote by the law of December 9. were published today. TAe fact

Unless Present Plans Fail it Will be Taken
 up on Thursday
me Senate Will Put in the Only Days of the Week on presidential Nominations, One of Them Being that of "Press Agent Bishop.

Washington, Dec. 31-The house of representatives will settle down to work as soon as it meets on Thursday and possibly before the end of the week will pass bill providing for the admission of two new states
 The first thing to dispose of is the reference of the presidents message. subject upon which floods of oratory were expended before the holiday re- cess The general debate has closed. and after short discussion under the five-minute rule, a vote will be taken upon the only contested point, which is whether the portion of the message relating to insurance shall be referred to the ways and means committee ol. to the interstate and foreign com merce committee. The contention has been oyer the point whether Iegisla- tion for the control of insurance com ranles shall be under the taxing power of the government or the power to control commerce between states.
 There was possibility of a clash be- tween Illc I-llIIppllc laflII Dlll and the joint statehood bill. The Philippine bill is already reported and being priv 1leged matter can be called up at any time. The statehood bill is still in committee, but it is understood that 1t can be brought out at any time and put before the house. Acting in ac- cordance with the decision of the re- publican caucus it is expected that a majority of the members of the com mittee on rules will bring in a rule making the statehood bill a special or der for the admission of, two states. As the measure now stands and as it will be. reported, it provides for the admission of Oklahoma and Indian Territory as one State with: the name Of Oklahoma and. the ad.nissionA of New Mexico and Arizona as another state with the name of Arizona.
 There is practically no opposition anywhere to the Oklahoma proposition. but there IS a .etc-:: iled opposition to coupling New Mexico and Arizona together and the objection is voiced by almost the unanimous vote of the mi nority.
 When the statehood bill is out of the way the house will be ready for the Philippine tariff bill and the interest ing contest that ensued over the re- ductiOn of duty on Cuban products is likely to be repeated. The beet and cane sugar interests have become
