London, Dec 2.-The charting of a
new map of European Turkey will
begin Immediately after the signing
of the armistioe at Baghtche tomor-
row.
If the allies agree among them
selves as to the spoils, there seems
no probability of resumption OF
hostilities; although no adjustment
of the Servian-Austrian dispute is
visible, the relations between st.
Petersburg and Vienna are some
what mended.
Diplomats believe that Servia will
eventually obtain small Adriatic
port, connected with Servia by rail-
way. Meanwhile Servia has trodden
on 1taly's toes by quartering Servian
troops in Italian schools at Durazzo.

ATTEMPTED BURGLARY.
Yeggs Made Futile Attempt to Break
into Safe at Springer.

into Safe at Springer.
Yeggmen, evidently novices, made
three attempts at an early hour this
morning to break open the safe OF
j. NJ. Arnold at Springer. Nitro
glycerine as applied and the safe
wrapped in blankets to cmother the
noise and three shots were fired
The safe remained locked. the rob-
bers feared attack from the citizens
and left. The cash drawer was ri
fled and some money taken, but not
much. The shelving in the store
was badly wrecked from the three
explosions, canned goods were
thrown in every direction and many
of the cans mashed and bruised. Mr..
Arnold will suffer considerable loss,
although his safe was not opened.
The people OF the town were sound
asleep and but one man heard the
explosions and he gave no alarm
until six o'clock this morning. This
man was sleeping IN an adjoining
store, he saw man standing IN
front of the store and heard two
voices in the building. He conclud-
ed that three men must have been
doing the work. He said If he had
undertaken to give any alarm that
he would have done so at the sacri-
flee of his life and ne did not care
to swap out to save an iron safe
and its contents.

LEGISLATIVE WORK
STARTS TODAY
DEMOCRATS WILL PUSH APPRO-
PRlATION BILLS SENATE
FACES FIGHT.

Washington, ID. c., Dec. Leg
islative work will start with a rush
Monday, when congress takes up the
work it gladly dropped last August.
Committee meeting during the last
week, conferences between members
who have legislative matters to push
and the formulation of plans by the
house and senate leaoers now OH the
ground have paved the way for speedy
handling of appropriation bills and
other legislation that will have to be
acted upon.
Democratic leaders of the house
have determined to push appropria-
ton bills as rapidly as possible In
the hope that none of them will be
carried over The firIt of the bills
that providing for the salaries and
Incidental expenses of the federal
establishments-wil be ready for sub
mission to the house Monday.
The senate faces a fight over the
selection of a presiding officer. The
progressives, holding, the balance OF
power, refused last session to- vote
for Senator Gallinger, the republican
candidate, and the senate is still run
ming along under the plan adopted OF
alternating between Senator Calm
ser AMI Senator Racon, democrat.
u :. nnder.t, d 20" that pa -,
partly made, for republican caucus
next week, have been abandoned,
Senator Gallinger, VINO reached
Washington today, said he had not
withdrawn as candidate for the
position of president pro TEN, and 1t
as expected he would be supported
again by republicans.
Only about a third of the members
of the two houses had reached wash
ington tonight. The prospect of lit
tie important legislation at this ses-
sion and the fact that many members
are making arrangements for the.
leavetaking from Congress next
March have contributed to the tardy
arrivals.

ALL PRELIMINARY STEPS TAX
EN-LAWTON BUSINESS MAN
HERE SAYS ROAD WILL BUILD.

w. G.. Doak, one OF the prominent
BUSINESS men OF Lawton, was in Ard
more this morning and IN CONVEX
sation with a nImber Of our repre-
sentative citizens gave out the state
ment that everything at the .Lawton
end of the line had been signed up
with John Ringing in the matter
of the building of the Ardmore, Dun
can & Lawton railway.
The city of Lawton, through her
legal representatives has signed a
contract with John Ringing in which
it is agreed to give a bonus Of $780,
900 for the building of the road.
This know to be fact Mr.. Doak
said, because | am a member OF
the guaranty bord association which
has been a party to this agreement.
| also positively know that Mr.. Ring
ling has agreed to accept the bonu\
which the city OF Duncan has agreed
to give the enterprise
Coming from the source which it
does, this information settles the
question of the early building Of
the line and it also settles that the
road will be built practically along
the old Jake Hamonsurvey via Dun
can. 1t is said to be an open secret
that John Ringing signed the agree
ment with the Ardmore people some
weeks ago. This being the case and
everything being signed up it will be
but the matter OF 4 short time un
til actual work will be commenced
On the road. AS the road will ira
verse. a section where the grades
will all be very light there will be
no heavy work in the way OF the con-
tractors and it is thought by those
who are on the inside that the road
will be completed we'll within the
time limit heretofore agreed upon.

Washington, Dec. How to dis

six days is the problem worrying
Speaker Champ Clark and associate
managers of the house of represent
atives. Republican Leader James r.
Mann, just back from Panama,
dropped in to discuss with the
speaker prospects for the three
months session.
I'VE did not make any plan for
the session." said Mr.. Mann later.
Speaker Clark agreed that no
plans for the future had been con-
sidered.
There are actually only about
twenty-six free days for work on ap-
preparation bills and general meas
ures," said the speaker. There are
ninety-two days in the session. Take
out thirteen Sundays, fourteen
Christmas holidays, thirteen Mon
days, which are devoted alternately
to District of Columbia and pension
legislation; thirteen Wednesdays,
which are given to bills on the reg
ular calendar, and thirteen Fridays,
devoted alternately to claims and
private bills, and there are left but
twenty-six unincumbered days for

Senators and representatives pour

Scores of men whose names have
been prominently identified with af~
fairs of congress for many years,
and who have shaped politics and
legislation, faced their last three
months of service as the session
opened.
In this notable company were the
deans of house and senate: Uncle
Joe" Cannon, former speaker, and
center of many turbulent sessions
of the house; and Senator Shelby
H. Cullom, for thirty years a sena-
tor from Illinois, personal friend
and contemporary of Lincoln, and
who was elected to lis first term in
the national house of representative
in 1865.
Both Cannon and Cullom came

will soon transfer all the executive
and Legislative branches of the fed

While the present session is mere
ly the expiring stage of a congress
soon to go out of existence and to
be superceded in political control and
policy after March 4, yet todays ses-
sions in the senate and house bring
together for the first time since the
recent overturning those leaders ana
elements of the various parties who
have been most prominent in pup
affairs. The old faces and figures
are again in evidence today, al

Cannon, will soon pass off the Goa
