PETTUS ALL RIGHT
DIsPLEAsED BY SENSATIONAL RE-
 PORTS OF HIS CONDITION.
No Indication That AAy of Court Bills Pending Before Judiciary Com
 mittee NfII Be Reported t- to the EEouse.

Washington, Feb. 7.--(special. )-- Senator Pettus was out bright and early this morning and seems to be in good trim in spite of his accident Mon day.
 He has made light of the incident and is naturally displeased at some of the publications in newspapers that bordered on the sensational and caused anxious inquiry on the part of friends of the Alabama Senator.
 The House Judiciary Committee met again this morning but did not take the slightest action indicating that any of the many court bills pending would be reported. The measure for an ad- ditional judge in Alabama is slumber- ing with the rest of them.
 Representatives Clayton, Wiley and Bowie have asked for a specific appro- priation to prosecute the experiment of exterminating the cattle tick in the Southern States. They have asked tho Secretary of Agriculture to have the work done at Auburn where the Ala bama Polytechnic and Agricultural Col lege is located.
 Clayton that his Department will have to be invited to cooperate with the Alabama experimental station. Mir. Clayton has advised the Auburn author ities of this fact. Secretary Wilson further told Mir Clayton that he was inclined to do this experimenting as Mir. Clayton had suggested. The Sec retary added that he knew Dr. Cary, the veterinarian at Auburn, by reputa- tion and that he is regarded as entire ly competent

 General Rennenkampn entered Chita, Trans Baikal. February 5, with out bloodshed. The inhabitants of the town have been disarmed and work has been resumed. Two hundred of the .revolutionists have been arrested, but a number of the leaders fled. General Heishchsonikoff. the military governor of Chita, has been relieved of his post for inaction.
 General Rennenkampff reports that the measures taken assure speedy pacification of Trans-Baikal. All is quiet among the troops at Vladivostok and Harbin."
 The first act of General Mistchenko on his arrival at vladivostok was to send the mutinous infantry regiment to the railway barracks outside of Vladivostok.
 Advices received by the Minister of the Interior supplement General Line vitch's dispatches referring to the res- toration of order In Chita- These show that the city was in the hands of the revolutionists for three days.
 The province of Trans Baikal, where the peasants, under the leadership of revolutionists. rose and raided the Gov ernment ammunition, is far from paci- fled. Many of the rifles have been res covered at Chita in damaged condi- tion. The captured revolutionary lead CTS were tried by drumhead courtmar- tial and shot
 The telegram of the Minister of the Interior added that famine is threat ening Trans-Baikal The supply of flour is exhausted and relief measures must be immediately taken.

ALL DUE TO EMPEROR.

Wttte Says the Cxar is Responsible for
 Russia's Great Happiness.
 St. Petersburg, Feb. IA delegation of citizens of Ekaterniodar, Caucasia, sent to St. Petersburg to obtain the Emperor's personal assurance that the land question would not be settled by the present government, but by the Ma tional Assembly. was received in au- dience by Premier witte yesterday.
 An interesting account of the inter view was published today. The Pre- mier pointed out that the Agrarian problem could not be solved by a di- vision of the State lands alone, amount ing to 16,000,00e acres, much of which is forest land. The peasants must be prepared to buy private lands on the easy installment plan as provided by the imperial ukase of November last.
 The spokesman of the deputation re- piled that the peasants did not wish to buy land. but were determined to receive 1t as 8 gift from the Govern 'ment.
 At the close of an informal discus sion. the Premier thanked Heaven that the conditions In Russia were different from those prevailing in other coun- tries He said, according to the pub lished report, that a French President was dependent on the electors, and an English King on Jewish bankers, but the HuSSi4u ESfperor was independent. The consummAtion desired by the rev. olutionists that the country be ruled by Poles, Armenians and Jews would not be realized. The Premier is said to have added:
 The greatness and happiness of Rus sia are due to the Emperor. Without the Emperor you who now wear long coats and. high hats would still be peasants"
 The Premier is reported to have re- marked in conclusion:
 If only. 1t had not been for this un- happy war, if only victory had been on our side. all would now be wells But God did not so will it."
 At the conclusion of the conference. the Premier promised the delegation that they would be received in audi ence by the Emperor. He gave the same pledge to deputations of Buriats ( a Mongolian people living chiefly in the government of Irktusk and Trans Baikal territory who arrived here to demand special representation in the National Assembly and permission to live in their condition of nomadism.

Chicago. Feb. 7.-The reading of the report on the beef inquiry made by Commissioner Garfield occupied the en- tire day in the trial of the packers case today, and when court adjourned for the day a large part of the report remained to be read.

ROBBERY BELIEVED
 OBJECT OF THE CRIME
Neighbors Aroused and Make
 Search for Criminals.
Rewards Amounting to sI,20o Are Of. fered For Their Apprehension and BIoodhounds Are Sent For To
 Trail the Murderers.

Dothan Feb. 7.-(SpeciaL) )--Welter- ing in a big pool of their own blood. with their heads almost severed from their bodies the corpses of J. E. Christmas. his wife and little child. a boy. were discovered at an early hour this morning at their home near Cot tonwood, Ala. between that little town and Campbellton. Fla.
 The crime was committed some time during last night. and it Is generally believed that robbery was the motive. as Mir. Christmas was considered a man of means. There is no direct clue to the perpetratorsI and the information reaching Dothan in rather mea- gre.
 Big Reward Offered.
 Mortified in the extreme, the little community where Mir Christmas lived took immediate action. telegram was sent to Marianna, Fla. asking for bioodhounds. and a reward of s1.2ee was offered. The sheriT's office at Dothan was also notified. and deputies from here have gone to tho scene.
 Feeling in the neighborhood of Cot tonwood Is said to be intense, and it iS Tot improbable that 1T the murderers are caught a called session of Judge Lynch's court will be held
 Some terrible crimes have darkened the history of that vicinity. but none quite so revoIting as this. aLd the peo- pie who have known Mir. Christmas and his family as neighbors all their lives are possessed with an anger which may prove understandable in the event tho slayers are taken Into custody.
 The crime Is the talk of Dothan to- day The murdered man was well known here, where he had many friends. This city has had nothing in recent years to prove more shocking in its brutality than the act of the fiends who took the lives of thesG three helpless persons--for MT. Christ mas himself. the natural protector of the home. had lost an eye and an arm, and was practically helpless to defend those he loved.
 Amount Missing Unknown.
 It Is not known at this time wheth- CT the murlerers secured any money or valuables from the house. Curiosi- ty as to this point Is entirely eclipsed by sorrow and indignation at the ter rible result of the raid.
 Information Is anxiously awaited here regarding the pursuit of the crimi- nals. A hard rain has been falling since midnight. and che downpour seems to be general fin character over this immediate section. This will in all probability make the work of the bloodhounds difficult. and may wash away all traces of tracks.

 GObeIin Tapestry.
 Washington. Feb. Miss Alice Roosevelt yesterday received the we'd ding gift the French Government in- tended for her. The gift consists of a beautiful Gobelin tapestry represent ing Justice and was offered to Miss Roosevelt by NJ. Jusserand, the French Ambassador.
 It was understood that President Roosevelt had informed several Eu- ropean powers that 1t would not be agreeable if they spent especially ex- pensive gifts and accordingly most European governments are expected to send small gifts merely to express their good will and wishes for the daughter of Americas first citizen. but the French Government had already given orders for the manufacture of this rare piece of tapestry.
 The piece. through not very large. is invaluable, as that particular kind of GObelin is solely made for the French Government on special occa- sions.
