the Minnesota legislature met at noon
today. Lieutenant Governor S. Y.
Gordon presided over the senate and
II. H. Dunn, who was selected by the
Republican caucus last night, will be
elected speaker of the house. Aside
from the election of officers, neither
house transacted any business.
Reapportionment and the election
of a United States senator are the
most important questions the legis-

with. The Republican senatorial eau
Gus has been called for this evening.
OF the 129 Republican members. 11S
have signed the call for this caucus.
Senator Moses E. Clapp's friends
claim that nearly all of these will
vote for the junior senator. Clapp's
opponents will try to have action on
the senatorship postponed and If they
succeed, it is rumored that Congress-
man James A. Tawney will announce
his candidacy for senator. An en-
dorsement of Clapp tonight by sixty
five members will settle the matter.

BATTLE WAGED IN
HEART Of LONDON
Desperate Anarchists Burned
to Death in Their Fortress
After Battle

London, Jan. 3.-One of the most
remarkable criminal outbreaks ever
occurring in London took place in
broad daylight today not far from the
heart of the city. A band Of suspect
ed anarchists directed its deadly
fusillade from building temporarily
converted into a fortress against the
hundreds of policemen, reinforced
by troops and guardsmen, mounted
and on foot. who had beseiged the
criminals, finally setting fire to their
fortress. Six Of the desperadoes
were burned to death in the ruins Of
their improvised citadel. The affair
took on Dimensions of q veritable
battle. The civil authorities finally
became masters of the situation. At
one time the besieging force called
for the machine guns, but these were
not brought into actual use. A mem-
Der of the ministry, Home Secretary
Winston Churchill, visited the scene
when the fighting was at its height
and assisted in the work of subduing
the remarkable outbreak.
The extent of the fatalities and in
jured Is being gathered slowly, as the
injured were carried away to widely
separated hospitals.
The excitement in the east end
spread throughout the city and enor-
nous crowds fiocked to the scene Of
the affray. AS the situation became
more serious. thousands of onlook-
ers were driven back and a space
was hurriedly cleared for radius Of
half mile about the scene Of action.
The soldiers kept up fusilade die
rected at the windows of tn ehouse
and the men within responded con-
tinuously. Meantime loads of straw
were hurried to the place for the pur-
pose of starting fire and smoking
out the besieged men. Piles Of straw
were lighted near the building and
the flames soon communicated to the
house. The fire brigade was then
summoned. The fire fighters divided
their energies between putting out
the blaze and in trying to flood out
the outlaws by streams Of. water
thrown through the windows.
corps Of nurses were brought to the
vicinity and they treated the found
ed, among whom were a few specta-
tors who had been struck by spent
bullets. In the face of the terrific
odds, the trapped men continued
desperate resistance and every few
minutes appeared at the windows and
emptied their guns at any one In sight.

Favors Reducing Cost Of Coal
to Consumer by Increasing
Output
CONGRESS SHOULD REGULATE
OPERATION Of COAL LANDS
Only Legislative Effort Should Be to
Prevent Coal Areas From Falling
Into the Hands of Trust-Other
Public Land. Matters.

Washington, Jan. 3.-Development
OF the coal fields, both iii Alaska and
the United States, with due adher-
ence to the principles of conserva-
tion," is strongly urged by Commits
sioner bennett of the general land
Office, in his annual report to the sec
retary of the interior, made public
today. He wants the coal delivered
to the bins of the ultimate consumer
at the cheapest possible price, but at
the same time wants legislation which
would prevent the fields falling into
the hands of the monopolies.
ut is imperative" he said, that
new leginlation be passed covering
the disposition of coal lands in Alaska
and in the United States. The made
quacy OF the present laws is univers-
ally conceded. This proposition
therefore, needs no argument. The
iprogress OF advancement in the west
is being retarded under present con-
ditions by the difficulty in the sue
cessful opening of new mines under
Legislation as it exists today. Com
Ipetition has been checked. The con-
sumer is having to pay, therefore, a
greater price than it would be rea-
sonable to expect he would have to
pay if it were possible to open new
mines under Legislation which would
encourage the development of this
resource.
Legislation, however. which would
not retain in the United States the
right of supervision over the market
ing of the product, would be mis-
take" he continues ITO throw this
resource open so that the coal de-
posits would ultimately pass into the
hands of the monopolies and trusts
would be to render the conditions
worse than they are at present. Con-

SEPARATED FOR
TWENTY YEARS
Brother and Sister United at
Home of the Register of
Deeds

Fargo, N. D., Jan. S-At the home
of Deputy Register of Deeds w. L..
Brown ocurred one of the happiest
New Year reunions that Fargo has
probably seen for some time. Mrs.
w. c. Joseph of Page and f. H. Park
er of Langdon met after a separation
of twenty-four years.
Until recent years, Mrs. Joseph,
who is visiting her daughter, Miss
Bessie, has been living in Illinois and
since coming to North Dakota has not
ha dthe opportunity to see her broth
er. At the meeting of the long sepa-
rated brother and sister, Mrs. Joseph
was unable to recognize her brother.
Mrs. Brown is the sister of both
Mrs. Joseph and Mr.. Parker and dur
ing the New Years holidays they are
having family reunion at the home
of the deputy register.

THE TWELFTH LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY Of NORTH DAKOTA CENNEESS CNES TO-DAY

gress, therefore, should carefully
guard the enactment of legislation,
and see to it that the requisite con-
troll Is retained in the United States,
SO that combination for the purpos-
es Of unjustly advancing prices can
be checked through government sup
|ervision."
One Local Officer
The abolition of the positions of
register and receiver in the local
land Offices and the creation of one
position in lieu of the two, is recon-
mended. This course, he says, would
result in considerable saving as we'll
as better administration. Under the
present system both officers are re-
sponsible for the work of the office.
The substitution of a bonded clerk
for the register and receiver is urg-
ed, which, with the difference be-
tween his proposed salary and the
salary now paid to receivers, would
of about $150,000, according to the re-
port.
The only reference in the report to
the Ballinger-Pinchot investigation is
contained in the paragraph declaring
that. the amount of work performed
during the last fiscal year was great
er than during the preceding year.
The total cash receipts from the
sales of public lands. including fees
and commissions on both original and
final entries for the ficscal year 1910.
| were $S,371 ,637, the report says. Mis-
cellaneous receipts were as follows:
From sales of Indian lands, $2,037,-
551; reclamation water-right charges,
$770.5S6: depredations on public land,
sales Of government property, and
copies of records and plats, $2S4,14s,
making the aggregate total of cash
receipts Of this bureau during the ffs-
cal year 1910, $11,463,922. a decrease
of $752,491 from the fiscal year 1909.
The aggregate expenditures and es-
timated liabilities of the public land
service, including expenses of dis
trict land Offices, were $3,179.363,
leaving a net surplus Of $S,2S4,560.
! Area of Land Taken
| The total area of public and Indian
land originally entered during the
fiscal year 1910 is, according to the
report, 26,391 ,269 acres, an increase
iof 6,49S,765 acres, as compared with
the area entered during the year
1909. This large increase is due to
the great number of entries made in
the northwest, principally in the
state of Montana, where, at one Office,
Great Falls. there was approximately
as much land entered during the past
fiscal year, namely. 2,064,5G2, as there
was in the whole state of Montana
during the fiscal year 1909. ---.-.
The area patented during the fiscal
year, the report says, is 10,9S3, $50
acres,a decrease of 1.S25.661 acres. as
compared with the fiscal year 1909
The number of patents issued during
the fiscal year 1910, however, exceed
ed that of 1909 by 2,16S. OF this
area. 74O4,59S acres were patented
under the homestead law.

section of Granville, N. Y, a village
of 5000 inhabitants about fifty miles
north of this city, was swept by a
fire carly today with loss of $780,
