slans surrendered possession of the dock
yard and other naval property yesterday
and turned over to the Japanese ten small
steamers available for Immediate use. All
the other craft had previously been sunk.
The work of clearing away the mines
commenced as goon as th Itus-slnn charts
provided for In the capitulation agreement
were delivered to the Japanese.
The official tlgurcR giving the Russian and
Japanese losses at Fort Arthur are not yet
available. Tho original strength of the
Russian garrison Is not known, but the
number of prisoners created the Impression
that tho garrison was larger than generally
supposed, Tho disposition of the suf ren
dered garrison has not been determined. It
Is Impossible to move the major
ity of tho sick and' wounded who
will bo nursed at I'ort Arthur. The Japa
nese are hurrying supplies of medicines
and foods to tho scene und with Improved
sanitation and careful nursing they hope
to cure thousands of the patients. The
care of tho many prisoners Is a trouble
some and expensive task and It Is possible
that Japan will arrange later to return
them to Russia. The question Is now un
der consideration at Toklo. It Is said that
General Nogl will return to Toklo at the
request of the emperor. In which case he
will receive a tremendous popular ovation.
The foreign attaches entered Port Arthur
yesterday.

Ab previously reported, tho transfer of

capitulation compact took place on Janu

STATEHOOD BILL UNDER FIRE

State Their Objectioni te Measure.
HOUSE DISCUSSES COTTON STATISTICS
Representative Livingston of Georgia
Attacks Reliability of Govern
inent's Estimates Currency
Bill Also Considered.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6 The Joint State
hood bill again today occupied tho major
portion of tho attention of the senate, and
Mr. Nelson completed his speech In sup
port of It. The omnibus claims bill was
read In part, but no effort was made to
securo action on It. Bills for tho reorgani
zation of the medical corps of the army
and regulating promotions of army offi
cers in the ordnance department were
passed.
One of the most elaborate floral de
signs ever exhibited In the senate chamber
surmounted tho desk of Mr. Burrows of
Michigan when the senate convened to
day. It was a map In flowers of the state
of Michigan and was a testimonial from
admiring friends as a compliment upon the
senator's renomlnatlon for tne senate The
credentials of Murphy J. Foster as senator
from Louisiana were presented and placed
on file.
A resolution by Mr. Piatt (N. T.) from
the committee on printing, ordering the
printing of 10,000 copies of tho report of the
commissioner of corporations was agreed
to.
A resolution reported by Mr. Burrows,
from the committee on privileges and elec
tions, fixing 1 o'clock on February 8 for
tho canvass by the two houses of congress
of tho vote cast et the presidential elec
tion. It was agreed to. Tho ceremony
will take place In the chamber of the house
of reorcsentatlves.
The statehood bill was then taken up,
Mr. Nelson continuing his speech of yes
terday. In the course of his address Mr.
Nelson was Interrogated by a number of
senators, among them being Mr. Foraker,
who called attention to tho proviso of the
organlo act of the territory of Arizona re
garding its continuance as such.
'Ms not that a proviso in the nature of a
pledge to continue the territory as such
until It should be transformed into a
state?" asked the Ohio senator, but Mr.
Nelson did not assent to the proposition.
"But," he said, "even it It was a pledge
It was not an Irrevocable one, for congress
remains absolutely In control of the terri
tories until they become states, -bo that It
Is perfectly competent to change boun
daries If desired to do so."
Mr. Nelson argue! that while Arizona
and New Mexico cover an extended area,
the section has been backward in develop
ment and will continue to be, owing to the
lack of moisture. He did not admit, as
was suggested by Mr. Foraker, that the
backwardness was due to the presence of
hostlli Indians or the existence of Mexican
land grants. Ha read a letter from Di
rector Wolcott of the geological survey
saying that only nbotit l.SOO.uOO acre. of
land in Arizona and New Mexico, or per
cent of tho total area, was under Irriga
tion or capable of irrigation.
Messrs. Newlanda and Heyburn Joined In
the debate, asking Mr. Nelson concerning
conditions In the territories of New Mex
ico, and Arizona and indicating objections
to their union. Mr. Nelson Indicated that
joint statehood would be best for all the
people. Ho concludtfl. at 4 p. in. and the

Mr. Livingston Attacks .. Ansrscr of
1 Government's Cotton Statistics.
WASHINGTON, Jan, 8. Tha govern
ment's cotton statistics, as prepared by the
Agricultural department and census bureau,
formed the subject of an extended discus
sion In the house today. Representative
Livingston ' of Georgia attacked the relia
bility of the government's estimates and
charged that the Inaccuracy of the figures
had created a panic in the cotton market.
He called attention to the dissatisfaction
which he said existed In the south over
cotton statistics, and 'said that the press of
that section wss ready to demand the aboli
tion of the statistical bureau of the Agri
cultural department. The question cams
up upon a motion by Mr. Wads worth, chair
man of the committee on agriculture, to
lay on the table the resolution presented by
Mr. Livingston several weeks ago, calling
on the secretary of agriculture for Informa
tion concerning the collection of statistic.
The motion to lay on the table prevailed
after Messrs. Uurlrson (Tex..), Wadsworth
(N. V.), Loverlng (Mass.) and films (Tenn.)
to. 33a
Arwcye . RetMnlHr ft Pall Nan
lucrative Uromo Qainiaa
Cure avCtaUfaOM Day, CrCbe 3 Day
had vigorously defended the government's
estimates.
The bill to Improve currency conditions
was further discussed, but adjournment
was taken without final action on It.
When the house convened Mr. Wadsworth
(N. T.), chairman of the committee on srrl
culture. submitted s report on the resolution
requiring the secretary of agriculture to
furnish certain information regarding cot
ton statistics, with the recommendation
that as th estimates for the Department
of ' Agriculture were found to be honrstly
and Intelligently made the resolution 11
on the table
Mr. Livingston (Ga.) demanded time to
be heard In favor of the resolution, alleg
ing that' he had had no opportunity to
speak In its favor before the Committee.
It finally was agreed that the subject
should be disrussed for two hours.
Pending Its consideration Mr. Llttnuer
(N. T.), from the committee on appro
priations, reported . the fortifications ap
propriation bill.
In crltlrlsing the action of the committee
In ordering the resolution to ll on the
table Mr. Llvlngstop said 'that there was
nothing In his resolution which charged
dishonesty or falsehood on the part of the
Agricultural department, but there ias
dissatisfaction In the south over the de
partment's report. A cause for dissatisfac
tion, he snld, was that the department esti
mated the acreage of cotton last year more
than l.ono.floO acres too much and corrected
the estimate In October.
"Ths department," he said, "that could
make a mistake of 1 ono.ono acres In tho
product of cotton In the south In one sea
son seems to me ought to give the coun
try tho Information upon which such esti
mate was based." The Inaccuracy of the
census and agricultural figures he de
clared had produced a panic at a most
unexpected time,
Mr. Burleson (Tex.) defended the gov
ernment estimates and vehemently de
clared that "neither the gentleman from
Georgia nor any other man can name
one single producer of cotton content with
receiving the legitimate price for his sta
plethat Is the price fixed by the law of
supply and demand, making complaint.
The debate was brought to a close by
Mr. Scott (Kan.), a member of the agri
cultural committee, who defended the com
mittee and recommendations
By a vote of 80 to 17 the resolution then
was laid on the table.
The house on motion of Mr. Hill (Conn.)
then went Into committee of the whole
for the further consideration of the bill
to Improve currency conditions.
Mr. Fowler (N. J.), chairman of the
committee on banking and currency, called
attention to the remarks that had been
made In the house after the payment of
Interest on government deposits and snld
ho had received Information from tho sec
retary of the treasury which proved con
clusively that no bank anywhere in the
United States, under any conditions, could
afford to pay Interest at any rate.
For nearly an hour Mr. Hill, with the
aid of an Immense chart, explained cer
tain figures bearing on rates of Interest
on bonds in different parts of the coun
try. He expressed himself as opposed to
Investing the government with banking
powers to loan government money at va
rious rates of Interest to various parties,
and said the time would come when the
people would regret that the secretary of
the treasury had been given power to
take the funds of tho country and loan
them at his discretion, anywhere, under
all circumstances, and with no responsi
bility. Mr. Williams (Miss.) ridiculed the figures
of Mr. Hill as "the supremest sort of
fallacy" and said that Mr. Hill "has so
wrapped me up In figures that I know not
what will become of my nervous system."
He then entered Into an extended dis
cussion of rates of interest paid on de
posits In different sections of the country
After Mr. Prince (111.) had spoken the
bill was laid aside, and the house at 4:35
p. m. adjourned until tomorrow.
DAKOTA LEGISLATURE TAKES EASE
Contest On In the House and a Few
Bills in the senate. .
PIERRE, S. D., Jan. 6. (Special Tele-,
gram.) Committees of neither houses havs
yet been announced and will not be until to
morrow, and tho house attempted nothing
except to receive communications and ap
point the committee on elections and privi
leges, which action was taken to allow tho

ing on that contest is on tonight- The com
mittee selected is Stokes of Marshall, chair
man; Turner, Rogde, Ilolman, Retts, Zaft

In tho senate a Joint resolution was In
troduced by Hayward to present Governor
Herried his office chair; by Hanley, me
morializing congress to pass the 640-acre

reservation.

tics, making the secretary of the State His
torical society the head of the department.

BAXGOR. FIGHTS FOR COIXTY SKAT
Asks Judge to Reopen the Case and
Hear Evidence.
MITCHELL, 8. D.. Jan B.-(8peclal Tele
gramsThe people of Banger, Walworth
county, which town recently lost the county
seat, the Selby people taking the records
and actually carrying the court house away
In sections, have finally nwakened to their
rights . In the cise. This afternoon At
torney E. T. Taubman, appearing for Ban
gor, and Attorney Gunderson for Selby,
the latter being accompanied by the
sheriff, clerk of courts, two county pom
mlssloners and Editor Griffin, appeared be
fore Judge Smith to secure an order for the
reopening of the case.
Judge Smith declined to take any ac
tion In the matter, but transferred It to
Judge Gaffy's circuit and It will come up
for a hearing January 12. Bangor con
fidently expects to get the county seat re
stored after the merits of the esse are
gone Into, although the presentation that
Selby has made makes it appear hopeless
for the losing town. Bangor people claim
their case Is not prejudiced, because they
did not make answer to the complaint to
show cause why the records and court
house should not be moved to Selby.

He Recommends Primary Election
La it, 1 of Voting Machines and
Defends Hla Action In
I.abor Troubles.
DENVER, Jan. 6 Tomorrow the Colo
rado legislature will commence to do
things. When the Joint stssion of tho
house and senate was dissolved at 5:30 this
afternoon all the political pieliminarKs to
the canvassing of the vole fur slate tra
cers had been swept away. When t s)jf leg
islature convenes tomorrow morning the
decks will be cleared, the battle Hugs will
be up and In both house and senate nit.ety
nlne gunners will be standing by un equal
number of oratorical siege guns prepared
for action.
The procedure favored by those members
of the legislature who believe that Governor
Pea body was elected by n majority of the
votes cust Is as follows:
When the voles are cast and show, as It
Is admitted they will siicw, that Alva
Adams possesses a majority of about ll,o".
to declare him elected on the face of the
returns, but to accompany this declaration
Willi the statement that his legal majority
Is a matter ol doubt because of gross frauds
perpetrated at the election. A motion will
thi n be made to refer the matter to a com
mittee, which will report not later than
Monday. Should this committee declare
that such frauds were committed In nlncty
nlue precincts of the city of Denver, so ss
to vitiate in Its opinion the election In those
precincts, and this report be adopted by
the legislature, the ninety-nine precincts
will be thrown out and the returns will
show n mnjorltv for Governor Peabody,
who will then be'declared by the legislature
to bo legally elected governor of Colorado.
The first struggle is likoly to come over
tho choice of a presiding officer for tho
Joint session. Tho rules provide that tho
lieutenant governor, as presiding officer of
the senate, shall take precedence ever tho
speaker of the house when the two bodies
sit together. It Is known, that the lieuten
ant governor Is of the oplnljn that the
courts are the proper place for the adjust
ment of political contests and an fffort
may bo made to Induce or force him to
give way to Speaker Dickson, who Is fa
vored by those members of the legislature
who believed that the contest between the
rival candidates for the governorship
should be settled by the legislature Ittelf.
Republicans Hold Cnueus.
A long caucus was held this afternoon
by tho republican before the afternoon
session. One element was In favor of pro
ceeding at onoe with tho canvass and of
postponing the receipt of the zovernor's
message until later. It was finally de
termined, however, to put the canvass over
until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
The senate put the matter squarely up to
the house by sending in to that body a res
olution providing for a Joint session to
canvass the vote at 2:30 this afternoon,
the notification of tho passage of the res
olution was not given to the house until
after 3 o'clock, and It was accepted by tha
house, with the amendment that 10 o'clock
tomorrow morning be substituted for the
canvass instead of this afternoon.
Clerk Harper of the housa was then sent
to Inform the senate that the house was
prepared to enter Into joint session for the
urposa of hearing the message of Gov
ernor Peabody.
Governor Reads His Message,
The message read by the governor dealt
for tho most part with recommendations
concerning reports from the various state
institutions. On tha subject of the militia
he touched brleiljr,' referring the legislaturo
to the report of Adjutant General Sherman
Bell, which was bo large, the governor de
clared, that he could pot attempt to epito
mize it. On tha question of election the
message was as follows:
The fraudulent conduct of elections under
our present system demands your Imme
diate and concerted action. In a general
way it seems sufficient to say that a mod
ern primary and registration law should be
enacted, and tha advisability of introducing
voting machines should be considered.
In sorrow we must admit that the elec
tive franchise, especially in Denver, has
been sadly misused and prostituted. A
patient people protests and these outrages
should be ended.
Labor Troubles Discussed.
The goveVnor recommends consideration
of a constitutional umendment providing
for compulsory arbitration, and urges the
abolishment of tho ' present arbitration
board, as it is without power to enforce its
decisions. Of the ' labor-troubles the gov
ernor, after urging the adoption of "a rea
sonable. Just and equitable eight-hour law,'
says:
Early In my administration a certain or
ganization, known as the Western Federa
tion of .Miners, claiming public considera
tion under the name of labor, whose offi
cers and those in direct charge of its man
agement are bold, careless, reckless men,
attempted to foment trouble in several sec
tions of Colorado, to the end that that par.
ticular organization should have recognition
In the operation anil management of the
mines, mills and smelters, wherever located
In the state, which efforts culminated In the
arbitrary calling of tho most nensele.se,
causeless, unjustifiable and inexcusable
strike ever known in this or any other
country.
Believing that my duty to the people of
the state lay In protecting life and property
In advance of annihilation I proceeded to
stop the unlawful methods of this reckless
band of men. Suffice it to say, law and
order was maintained, peace restored and
prosperity Immediately followed.
I recommend the passnge of an act by
your honorable body prohibiting boycotting,
picketing, unfair lists or other interference
with the lawful business or occupation of
others, and providing suitable penalties
therefor.
Rights of Person and Property.
The principles on which I stand, ami
which have caused rne to take the action I
have in maintaining law and order in this
state, are that' the 'rights of every clflzen
to enjoy liberty and the right to acquire,
possess and enjoy and protect his property
are Inherent and Indefeasible. The right of
the workingman to sell his labor to any one
wishing to purchase lb for lawful purposes
l equally his inherent right. Laborers have
undisputed right to organize and to cease
to work, either as individuals or as an or-
fanlzatlon. for such reasons as mav seem
o themselves suftick'nt; but when they at
tempt to prevent others from performing
the same work or td prevent the employers
from employing others to carry on his work
their actions are unlawful and cannot be
tolerated.
There has been so far no Indication of
any violence or trotfble likely to come from
either tha canvassing of the vote or the
declaration of the final result. Both demo
crats and republicans Insist that everything
will pass off peaceably.
The sole prophet to the contrary was
Representative Bromley, who, with comto
seriousness, objected to a railing being
placed across two of the archways In ths
rear of tht house. Representative Frewen
proposed the railing with the Idea of pro
tecting the members In the rear seats from
the crowding spectators.
Representative Bromley, who sits In the
last row, declared that he wished no rait
ing. "There may be things doing In this
room before long." h asserted, "snd I may
want to get nut quickly." The roar of
laughter that followed his words efTeetuallj
disposed of the proposition to build the
ral'lng.
