IMPERIAL UKASE TO BE ISSUED
WITHIN A MONTH.
AGRARIAN GRIEF over
Gear Considers the Plan Sufficient to
Close the Question--Riots and
Terrorism Among Jews.

st. Petersburg, August 23.--An i'm
portant series Of conference began last
night at Peterhoif palace on the ques-
ton Of immediate distribution of the
crown lands and appendages to peas
ants, in an attempt to find partial
solution of the agrarian question, by
measurably appeasing the land hunt
ers of the peasantry, and the Asso-
ciated Press Is now in position to an.
nounce that the government has defin-
itely decided to proceed with the orr
glnal plan outlined in these dispatches
August Z, for settling the agrarian
question, regardless of parliament,
and to go to the country upon the is
sue at the coming election. The Asso-
ciated Press was informed this after
noon by a member of the cabinet who
participated in the Peterhof confer
ence that the agrarian question is no
longer open. Within fortnight an
imperial ukase will be issued, direct
ing the agrarian commission to be-
gin the distribution Of l,S00,000 des-
siatins Ca dessiatin Is about 2 1-2
acres) belonging to nppanages, four
million dessiatins belonging to the
crown, and two million dessiatins Of
land offered to or purchased through
the Peasants Bank. Only forests and
lands belonging to the state, the pres
ervation of which is considered neces,
sary for future agricultural prosper
ity Of the country, will be reserved.
The transaction will be financed
through the Peasants Bank, and lit
tie cash will be required.
Terrorism In Jewish Circles.
st. Petersburg, August 23.-There
is great alarm in Jewish circles in
Russia over the developments at Seid-
Ice, Poland, where events seem to be
shaping up for outbreaks of pillage
similar to that at Bialystok. Devel-
opments parallel almost exactly the
preliminaries Of the Bialystoy massa-
ere. A long series Of revolutionary
and terroristic signs have been attri-
buted by the police to the Jews, cul-
minating, as was the case at Bialy-
stok, in the assassination Of the chief
Of police, Goltzeff. The funeral Of
Goltzeff today was the occasion Of .
great demonstration by the Russian
population. The condition OF feeling
is shown by the refusal Of Goltzeff's
widow to receive q wreath sent BY
Jewish society as mary Of its dis
approval of the assassination. A sim.
liar incident occurred at Bialystok.

Now Living.
Special to the World.
Lawrence, Kan, Aug. 23.-H. 8.
Clarke and c. T. X. Prentice talking
ing over the Quantrell raid, and figur-
ing a little, have come to the conclu-
sion that there are not over 100 men
and women, who were gnown men and
women ON August %, 1883, who are
still liveing in the neighborhood Of
Lawrence. There we're some child
rem, but probably not enough to very
largely increase the number Of sur
viv0rs.
Today was much such q day ~
that August morning when Quantrell
swooped down upon the town. 1t was
little warmer then, perhaps, there
was a little less wind blowing, for
the smoke from the fires Of the town
rose in straight columns above the
city. q
II was a sad anniversary, and It
brings many memories Of horrors that
are now past comprehension.

COMMISSIONERS court FOR TULSA.
final VICTORY FOR DELEGATE GREGG
TULSA TO HAVE THREE WEEKS
OF EACH MONTH.
ORDER FROM LAWRENCE
Judge of the Western District Sends
Glad Intelligence to Clerk Lorton
Yesterday-Its Location.

Tulsa is to have a commissioner s
court. 1t is to hold forth in Tulsa
three weeks out of each month and
Sapulpa is to have a session the re-
naming one week. Tulsa is the place
where nearly all the court business is
to be transacted. This welcome news
was brought to the city yesterday by
message from Judge Lawrence to
Clerk of the Court Lorton, giving the
glad intelligence that Delegate w. j..
Gregg had won his fight, and Tulsa is
to get the court to which she is en-
titled. Court will probably be held
in the Reeder building.
The following is the order received
by Clerk Lorton from Judge Lawrence.
IN THE UNITED STATES COURT
IN INDIAN TERRITORY, FOR
THE WESTERN JUDICIAL DIS
TRICT. SITTING AT MUSKO-
GEE, IND. TER:
Ordered, That the territory embrace
ed in Recording District Number
Twenty-Eight, created by Act of
Congress approved June q, 1906, not
heretofore forming a part of Commits
sioner's District Number Five, is here
bv added to and made a part of said
Commissioner District Number Five !;
and hereafter the Commissioner of
said District Number Five shall hold
commissioner courts at Tulsa begin
ming the fourth Monday of each month
and at Sapulpa, beginning the third
Monday of each month; and said COM
missioner shall maintain his office at
said Tulsa, as provided by said act Of
Congress.
Done this 21st day of August, A. D.,
1906.
WILLIAM R. LAWRENCE,
Judge.
Delegate Gregg made hard fight in
Washington last winter to secure the
recording district and the commits
sioner's court, and was ably assisted
by others. However, he was about
robbed of the fruits of his victory
through the Vaccinations of enemies
of the city claiming the court could
not be held here as the original bill
provided for three commissioners
courts but only three commissioners.
The fight was continued and now Tul-
sa once more comes into her own. The
commissioner court and later the
federal court will mean much for Tul-
sa.
The question Of securing suitable
place for holding the court was raised
and Marshal Bennett opened the bids
of local parties, but they were all re-
iected as too high. Ex-Mayor Reeder
has made liberal proposition for
suitable quarters in his magnificent
new four-story brick building on the
corner of Boston and Second streets.
Marshal Bennett gives it out that the
court will be held in the Reeder
building.
Under the order from Judge Law
renee, Commissioner Hyams, who now
lives at Sapulpa, will remain in Tulsa
and make this his permanent resi-
dence.

pected.
Frazier was arrested and strong guard was
thrown around the Jail. The farmers soon gath
cred. and with heavy battering rams and axes
broke down the doors and dragged the prisoner
forth despite the protests of the Mayor and
other officers.
The mob was quiet but determined. and
warned the officers not 10 interfere at their
merrill Frazier was carried to the water tank,
rome was placed around his neck and he was
raised and lowered several times before finally
strung up.
The negroes were wrought UP over the lynch
ing and gathered near the City Hall. many of
