ROGERS SECURES SHORT DELAY.
Must Give Reason To-day Why He
 Does Not Answer Questions.

Does Not Answer 9ueHuohs'
 New York, Jan 12.-Before Justice Gidersleeve in the New York supreme court to-day counsel for H. H. Rogers, of the Standard OH company, were suc- cessful in securing further postpone ment until tomorrow morning of the rule against Mir Rogers to show cause why he should not be compelled to an- swer certain questions asked by Attor- ney- General Herbert s. Hadley, of Mis- souri, in the hearing in this city to de- termine the relationship, If any be- tween the Standard Oil company, the Waters-Pierce Oil company and the Re- public Oil company. MT. Hadley strongly opposed the postponement, saying it was necessary for him to close the hearing tomorrow in order that he might meet court engagements in the west on Monday The delay was se- cured through a plea that one of MT. Rogers counsel had a case on hearing in another court.
 Following the arguments in the su- preme court Attorney General Hadley resumed the hearing before Commis- sioner Sanborn this afternoon, and A i V. Jockel, formerly of the Standard Oil company and later with the Waters Pierce company in Oklahoma City, was again called as a witness. He was ross-questioned by the attorneys fol the oil interests, but reafflrmed much oi his testimony given on direct examina. ton. The witness refused to answer question asked by one of the oil com pany's attorneys. He said he did so or advice of counsel and added: I've go the habit, too"
 After the hearing on court to-morroV morning in the Rogers matter the hear ing before the commissioner will be re sumed and concluded during the after noon or evening.

NEW CARD CASES AND LocKETs,
Flower Pins That Match Costumes,
 Novel Small Fans.

Flower Pins That Match Costumes,
 Novel Small Fans.
 Gold card cases contain pockets for cards and small coins, and are either in plain finish or set with tiny jewels, dotted here and there, or in a figure shaped to ornament the center of each corner.
 Old yet ever popular is the heart shaped locket, which now shows the upper part of gold filigree set with peridots, and the lower part of dia- monds.
 It is a fad of the season that flower pins should match the costume. There Is such diversity of color in the enamelled orchids and other flowers that one is enabled to compass this without difficulty, the violet being es- pecially in request.
 Pompadour shape in small fans that are such convenient little trifes that they are not easily to be displaced are painted with figures or landscapes on chicken skin in the softest cloudiest coloring. Some black gauge fans have flower patterns in lace applique set round with silver paillettes.
 Some novel pen wipers of crystal are in the shape of little silver mounted pails or tubes filled at the top with a pen brush of one kind or another. A head bandeau is of diamond open work, broader in the center and taper ing to narrow ends, being adapted to ornament a certain style of coiffure where more pronounced effects are not in keeping.
 A geranium leaf makes an odd brooch formed of diamonds and veined with sapphires
 An unusually large centrepiece of sh- yer of novel design is in the shape of a circular frame of silver, in which vases are set at regular intervals to form a floral ring. The space enclosed con- | tains large silver dish for fruit ol | flowers as a central ornament.
 Now that floor lamps are back again we may look for some really stunning |, effects. The Empire style Is, of course

SIBERIAN SITUATION
shown During Recent Strike to Have
 Been Most CriticnI.

St. Petersburg, Jan. 12.-1:1O a. m.- The first advices received ny the gov ernment from Siberia after the restora- ton of telegraphic communication showed that the most critical condi- tions prevailed there during the recent strike, but that now, with the arrival of reliable troops from Manchuria, the worst happily is over. Owing to the in terruption of communication the local governors were unaware of their au thority' to declare martial law, which was conferred by the emperor's ukase. The paltry military forces at their dis posal yere in open sympathy with the strikers, and many of them were revo- lutionaries, and this prevented ener- getis measures being taken to restore the authority of the emperor, which was practically non-existent for many days.
 Divisions under General Sukhotin have now arrived and taken possess sion of Irkutsk, Omsk Krasnoyarsk and other towns, and are arresting the leaders of the insurgents, and disarm- ing the unreliable troops.
 The first telegram arriving from Irlkutsk was a frantic appeal from the financial agent there for some one to take over the administration of the city, the vice governor, the chief of po- lice and all his other superior officers having been killed or wounded during the insurrection. He reports that for several days the revolutionists were in control of the entire town, except the administration building, and that htis was only held because of the devotion of the cadets of the military school, who swore on the colors to fight to the death against the revolutionists.
 Krasnoyarsk also was for several days in the hands of the insurgents who elected a revolutionary govern ment, and exacted an oath of allegiance from all citizens.

RED SUNDAY CELEBRATED
GENERAL PACIFIC STRIKE FOR
 4 SINGLE DAT.

Russian wOrl1men's Council Vote to Observe It in This Way--A Three
 Cornered Discussion Over the Per- sOnaI Bravery of the Jews-Advices
 Show That Most Critical Situation Existed in Siberia During Recent
 Strike.
 st. Petersburg, Jan. 12.-The work mems council after consultation with the leaders of the proletariat organi- zatlons to-day decided that the celebra- llon Of the anniversary Of January 22 thed Sunday should take the form of a general pacific strike for a single day. Delegates were appointed to go to france, Germany and England as well as other places abroad, for the purpose or thanking the workers of those coun- trles who propose to join in a general observance of the anniversary.
 A three-cornered discussion is in pro- gress between General Martynoff, the Molva (Russ) and the Novoe Vremya over the question of the personal bray cry of the Jews. The controversy was precipitated by the publication of an article signed by General Martynoff in which the Jewish soldiers were stigma tized as towards and in which it was declared that they resorted to every conceivable ruse, even to the extent of K mut1lat1ng themselves, in order to avoid service. The article said that those who actually reached Manchuria feign- ed sickness before eery fight and that the fright of the Jews in battle was enough to shake the morale of an entire regiment The Jews, the article said were also guilty of constant desertion, and 1t was alleged that there were 256 assertions of Jewish soldiers from Q single division as compared with tel assertion of eight Christians. In con cluding his article General MartynofI said that the Jew on account of cow ardice and physical weakness was mol fit to be a soldier.
 The Molya took up the cudgels on behalf of the Jews, warmly defending their moral courage, giving them cred it for bearing the brunt of the revo- lutionary struggle, and explaining that any faults they may have shown at the front were born of their detestation of the rule of their oppressors
 The Novoe Vremya sided with Gen eral Martynoff, but acknowledged the abilities of the Jews, who, 1t said, were the real organizers of the Russian revo- olution. It insisted, however, that while the Jews had furnished brains and arms to the workmen, just as they furnished bombs to the terrorists, they had done little actual fighting.
 In continuing it's side of the argu- ment the Novoe Vremya berates those foreigners in the United States and elsewhere "who raise money to buy weapons in defense of the poor Rus- sian Jews, which in reality are used to fight the government. Then the for eigners blame the government for the harsh measures adopted to quell the re- bellion"

ACQUIRING A T1TIE IN EUROPE

ACQUIRING A TITLE IN EUROPE
 "The martial spirit that pervades Europe makes the average civilian very much of nonentity as he jour neys about the gay capital across the water, remarked Henry Stern. Which leads up to the advice that, if you want to attract attention when you go to Europe, you want to have a military title attached to your name The fact was foreibly impressed on my mind while I was on a European tour some time back. The clerk at the Grand Hotel in Paris remarked to me that two distinguished officers from my city had been spending some time at the hotel little while before. was curious to see who they were, so we looked back over the register for their names. We found them without much trouble. The first to greet my gaze was written down in this fashion:
 "Col. M. H. Hecht, San Francisco, Cal, U. s. A."
 Further down on the page inter- rupted the clerk, you will notice the name of Gen. Salz.'
 There, in a bold hand, was in- seribed Jacob salz, Gen. Mer., San | Francisco, Cal, U. s. A
 What actually. happened was this as I subsequently learned. Salz, who is well known as the owner of a big tannery at Benicia, arrived at the ho- tel, and, noticing Colonel Heeht's name and title on the register, decided that he needed title himself. So he wrote after his name what he thought was @ proper abbreviation for general nerchandise.' It worked beautifully. During his stay at the hotel he was re- spectfully addressed as Gen. Salz,"-- San Francisco Chronicle.

HOUSE VOTES FOR A
CANAL Of LOCK TYPE

fore voting The chair Mr. Watson OF In
diana, held. however that the amend
ment was i'm order. and without further
discussion IL was adopted.
Mr. Sullivan OF Massachusetts, and his
associates on the Democratic side OF the
house attempted 10 put a limitation on
the money voted for the further contin-
uation OF the canal by compelling the
Isthmian Canal commission to accept the
lowest bid as q result OF advertisements
i'm the manner established by the canal
commission.
Mr.. Sullivan offered a proviso TO the
effect which created an extended discus
sion.
Mr.. sullivan said the house had earlier
I'm the day decided upon a lock type for
the canal on the ground OF economy, but
now IL was about TO vote once more 10
continue its extravaganza. He contended
that the manner I'm which material was
being purchased was in the interest OF
American builders OF dredgers, American
bridge builders and the steel plants OF
this country, when IL was "a notorious
fact that IL bids were opened TO the world
materials could be purchased more
cheaply than at present"
Mr.. Payne IN. W called attention 10
the fact that the senate had passed a
ioint resolution determining once for all
who should be favored in the purchase or
supplies. He called upon the Republicans
to vote down every attempt TO throw the
purchases away from the American peo-
pie. and this the Republicans did by n
series OF votes on amendments offered by
the Democrats. Mr.. Sullivan's amendment

NEWPORT HAS LOST
IN TOTAL VALUATION

According to the estimate OF the city
clerk, the total valuation OF the city OF
Newport is likely to be considerably less
than that OF last year City Clerk Ste
ven's figures are s4s.57e.5oO. which would
give a state tax OF ss7437. 70
The valuation for 1905 was s5ss 700. or
ss.oS0.aO0 more than the estimated valua-
ton for this year. The appropriation for
state tax based on last years valuation
was slOl .92S.Os. or s14.4so.36 more than the
tax will be on the estimated valuation
given above.
The probable falling of is due to the re-
moval from Newport OF several cottagers
who objected to the valuation placed on
their property, and TO the many reduc-
tions and remittances made since the as
sessment last year.

JUDGE SWEETLAND
WILL INSPECT
R. R. LOCATION

Presiding Justice Sweetland today
further heard the application Of the
Moshassuck Valley Railroad company for
the condemnation OF certain land and the
appoindment OF commissioners TO assess
damages. The most interesting feature
of the previous hearing was the opposition
OF the New York. New Haven and Hart
ford to the taking OF land near the Wood
lawn station. Today the Oak Hili land
company was the chief opponent of the
Moshassuck's proposed route. There was
no evidence introduced by the Consoli-
dated today.
Rathbone Gardner appeared for the Oak
Hill company. The extension Is carried
through the centre of land owned by the
company IL was claimed by Engineer
Temple OF the Valley company that the
land of the Oak Hill company along
Pleasant street Is the most valuable
Charles H. Newell, viec-president OF the
Oak IIill Land company. did not agree
with Engineer Temple. He maintained
that the most valuable land is that in the
centre as no one wanted a railroad in
their back yard. The land owned rs, Mr.
Newell claimed. TO be plated into first
class residential lots. A new plan pro-
posed by the Oak Hill company involving
the hand OF John Kenyon was suggested.
There was considerable discussion as
TO how tho change In plans would affect
other interests. Finally II was arranged
that Judge Sweetland should visit the
land over which the road is TO so.
The hearing was continued week.

CENTRAL FALLS
Failed TO Make Appropriation
for Library Site.- .--CItizens
Registering

The failure OF the common council at its
meeting last Tuesday night 10 pass the
bill appropriating 5000 for the purchase
OF site for the proposed public library
building has not been wholly satisfactory
TO good many people.
Through the will OF the late Stephen
Adams there is available for such build
ing with its furnishings the sum OF $4,000
and as fully $4,000 will be required for
furnishings this leaves $4,000 for the
building, a sum which for the purpose Is
not very large.
There were those who hoped that the
city government would see its way clear
TO purchasing the site and this makes IL
possible 10 expend the entire $4,000 on the
building. But evidently the present cendi-
ton OF the city treasury is such as 10
make this action inadvisable at least for
the present.

city began yesterday his 3oth year OF SER

parts OF the city. The Democratic regis

there will be quite full registration
