NATION M0URNS
DEATH OF BARONESS
BURDETT-C0UTTS
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
LONDON, Dec. 30.-Baroness Bur-
ett-Coutts, who has been i'll at her
residence since Christmas eve, is dead.
The death OF Baroness Burdett-Coutts,
occurring at the age of 92 years, besides
depriving the country of one of it's
greatest and most famous philanthrop-
lists, removes from London a unique
personality.
AS a link with the almost forgotten
past, her life, beginning during the
reign of Emperor Napoleon, she lived
during the reign of five British sover-
eigns.
Inheriting an immense fortune, she
distributed 1t so as to die beloved by
the whole nation.
BY the whole nation from the queen
who bestowed on her the warmest
friendship to the humblest citizen. She
was conscious to the last moment and
able to recognize the members of her
household, to each of whom she bade a
last farewell. She died peacefully at
10:30 o'clock this morning.
During the last illness of the baron
ess numerous royal inquiries were
made at her home, Queen Alexandra
sending a specially gracious message
which the baroness was able to appre-
ciate and respond to. All the members
of the royal family have wired their
coincidence to the husband of the
baroness.
Baroness Burdett-Coutts was the first
peeress created in her own right and
the first woman presented with honor
ary citizenship in London. She was
great patroness of art, science and
literature, interfering little in politics.

AGED MAN MURDERED
WITH HATCHET, BUT
MOTIVE IS MYSTERY
BY Associated Press.


KANSAS CITY, Mo, Dec. 80.
Thomas Tanning, aged 80
years, a wealthy property owner
who lived alone, was murdered
some time yesterday at his home,
1913 Olive street, in this city.
His head had been horribly
hacked with a hatchet.
The crime was reported to the
police today by William Tanning,
the murdered mans young
nephew.
Robbery was not the motive of
the crime, as $2100 was found by
the police in a chest in the room
where the body was found. In
the old mans pockets were gold
watch, $13 in money and deposit
slip showing that he had deposit
ed $4,000 in a local bank on De-
cember 5.
Until he retired from active
work a few years ago Tanning
had worked with pick and SHOW

FIVE TRAMPS
ARE KILLED
IN WIRE OK
Freight Cars Dash
Into Ditch
Groans Of Mortally Injured Man
Notify Train Crew Of Hoboes'
Presence-Were Beating
Way to California
BY Associated Press.


SACRAMENTO, Cal, Dec. 3O.-Five
men, all unknown, were killed this
morning in a freight wreck at Floris-
tan station, a short distance beyond
Truckee.
A broken truck on one Of the box
cars caused the wreck and four cars
went into the ditch.
The track was torn up for fifty feet
and 1t required the services of the
wrecker from Truckee to clear the
fic.
The five men who were killed were
beating their way on the train from
Nevada into this state and when the
smashup occurred they were ground
to pieces beneath the wheels and in
the wreckage.
The groans of one of the men, who
was mortally injured, attracted the at
tention of the train crew to where he
lay pinned down by pieces of a car
and one of the wheels.
He died before he could be taken
from the wreck and his name was not
learned.
When the wrec<er reached Truckee
and one of the cars placed on the
track four other bodies were found
underneath.
All were horribly mutilated and
nothing was found on any of the bodies
that would lead to the identity of any
of the remains.
The wreck occurred as the train was
passing the switch short distance
from the station. The rear truck on
one of the heavily loaded box cars left
the rails and pulled four others after
it. Three of the cars were loaded with
merchandise and some of the freight
was damaged,
The fourth car was empty, but bad
ly wrecked
The wreck happened at 1O:3o this morn
ing and the track was open for travel
at 2 o'clock this afternoon.
The bodies of the five men killed were
taken to Truckee, where the coroner
will hold an inquest tomorrow.
In the report received in this city to-
day it was stated that all of the men
were tramps and not workingmen.

OPPOSITION MAY
BATTLE TOGETHER
Constitutional Democrats Make Over.
lures to Minor Organizations,
Looking to Coalition of
Radical Voters
By Associated Press.


ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. SO.-Nego-
tiations looking to coalition Of all the
opposition parties in the coming cleo
tionS have been inaugurated by the CEN
trail committee of the constitutional
Democrats.
The leaders of this party up to the
present time have rejected all overtures
looking to an alliance, on the ground
that the party has power enough to win
alone, but their conversion to the idea
of a coalition is due to reports from
the interior showing the progress made
by the conservative propaganda and
the administrative measures for the
distribution of land to the peasantry in
many sections of the country coupled
with a realization that the government
has finally found a vulnerable point in
their armour in the regulations issued
this week.
In these regulations Premier Stolypin
has copied the American and Australian
systems to the extent of providing
closed booths for secret voting and the
use of official ballots.
Electioneering is prohibitive in the
vicinity Of the polls, but 1t has been ar
ranged to furnish beforehand supplies
of official ballots, on which the legal
lied political parties, such as the Octo-
berists and the peaceful regeneration
lists and the Monarchists may print
their tickets for distribution to the ad-
herents of these parties.
The constitutional Democrats and the
other opposition parties are denied this
privilege and their adherents will be
forced to write out their ballots indi-
vidually. Thes will lead to the open
ing and possibly the rejection of a null
titude of votes on account of minor
Irregularities.
The administrative veto to political
meetings and the prevention of the dis
semination of campaign literature will
further prevent the non-legalized par
ties from communicating lists of their
candidates to their adherents except
through the newspapers.
