Special Dispatch to The Cail. VIENNA, Dec. 1—The Constantinople correspondent of the Neue Freie Presse telegraphs that the bodies of Miss Stone and Mme.. Tsilka have been found near Dubnitza, Bulgaria, twenty-two miles from Sofia. An official report from the Vali of Salonica confirms the statement that the two women are dead. Their deaths apparently occurred a month_ago. In commenting on the dispatch the Neue 3 Presse says the report is possibly a mistake. SOFIA, Dec. 1.—M. Mihalowsky, presi- dent of the Macedonian committee, recent. ly made a speech at Varna, in Bulgaria, in which he denounced M. Saratoff, for- mer president of the committee, and the Macedonians as agitators, murderers and blackmailers. Among other crimes he‘ac- cused them of kidnaping Miss Ellen M. Stone, the American missionary. The Macedonians of Sofia held an indig- nation meeting here to-day. Violent speeches were made denouncing M. Miha- lowsky and in_which M. Saratoff was eulogized as the hero of Macedonian vouth. This incident is important as dem- onstrating the schism in the Macedonian camp. Reports received here to-day from Dub- nitza announced increased vigilance on the part, of the authorities and the police of that Dlace. Bulgarian official circles are evidently much impressed by the menacing attitude of United States Government in the Stone affair. They declare, however, that they are unable to do any more in the maiter than they have done already. WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.—Naval officials say the reported dispatch of the crulser Dixie from Naples, Italy, to Smyrna, has no connection with the case of Miss Ellen M. Stone, the American missionary, whose release from the Bulgarian brigands our Government is now seeking to enforce, The Dixle is now engaged in the training service and has a number of landsmen aboard. Her movements while on the Mediterranean cruise are chosen with the intention to give the best training expe- rience pgssible to the men aboard. and if, as reported. she has been sent to Smyrna, this, it is believed by naval officials, is | without special significance as bearing on the Stone case.

W., WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.—The Senate will meet at 12 o'clock and | organize by the election of Will- iam P. Frye of Maine as presiding officer. New Senators will be sworn in. The President will be notified that the Senate is ready for business. Adjourn- ment will then be taken out of respect to the memory of the late Senator Kyle. The House will meet at 12 o'clock and after the swearing in of all new members will organize by the election of nominees of the Republican caucus. The rules of the last Congress as modified by the Re- publican caucus on Saturday will be adopted. The President will be notified that the House is ready for business. Ad- | Journment will then be taken. The Pres- ident’s message to Congress will be read to both branches immediately on assem- bling on Tuesday. No official announcement of the death | of ‘President McKinley can be made to Congress except by his successor, Presi- dent Roosevelt. This announcement will be made in the message from the Presi- dent to the Senate and the House on Tuesday, and both branches will on that day immediately adjourn out of respect to the memory of the late President. -— PROGRAMME OF THE SENATE. Matters of Great Public Interest Soon to Be Considered. ‘ WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.—One of the first measures of national interest which will be introduced in the Senate at the session which will begin to-morrow will be a reso- | lution looking to public action concerning | the death of President McKinley. This iwlll be presented on Tuesday by either | | Senator Foraker or Senator Hanna, prob- ably the former, and after its introduction the Senate will adjourn immediately as a mark of respect to the memory of the dead President. The annual message of President Koosevelt wil not be received unuul ‘ruesaay, and on tmis account the session of Monday Wil be exceedingiy brief. It is not 10w expected that any- thing will be done on tnat day beyond tne announcement of the deatn of Senator Kyle, following whnich tne Senate, in ac- cordance with custom, will adjourn tor the day. On Luesday the President’s message will be read, and after its reading tne an- nouncement of the death of President M Kinley will follow at once, whereupon u: der the precedent establisned when Presi- dents Lincoin and Garfield died resoiu- | tions providing for the appointment of a committee 10 act with a similar commit- tee of the House of Representatives to take appropriate action relative to the matter, ana then calling for immediate adjournment for the day will be adopted. Heretofore committees have been appoint- ed to arrange the detaiis of public exer- cises, and it is understood that plan will be pursued in this instance, and that later in the session some public man of dis- tinction will be invited to deliver a eulogy in_the Capitol. ‘Wednesaay and Thursday will be de- voted to the introduction of new bills, and as usual there will be a flood of them. Among the first bills of importance to be presented will be the ship subsidy bill, which will be introduced by Senator Frye, and the Nicaraguan canal bill, which Sen- ator Morgan will present. Senator Frye. has not entirely completed his bill, but he said to-day that it would be different in many details from the old bill of last ses- sion; that measure was' framed by former Senator Edmunds. Senator Frye himself is the author of the new bill. Senator Morgan's canal bill will be a duplicate of Representative Hepburn's bill on the canal question. Other early bills of im- portance will be one looking to the con- struction of a submarine cable from the stern coast of Hawall and another pro- ding for the establishment of a new executive department to be known as the Department of Commerce. On Thurs- day the Senate will adjourn until the fol- lowing Monday. The general opinion among Senators is that very little real work will be done be- fore the Christmas holiday. The first subject demanding attention is recipro- city. Various treaties are now pending in the Senate looking to commercial agree- ments between the TUnited States and other countries. Senator Aldrich will re- new his effort to have these . treaties, which already have been reported from the Committee on Foreign Relations, re- ferred to the Committee on Finance, on the ground that they deal with tariff ques- fons. The friends of the treaties will op- pose this demand and the preliminary skirmish expected to ensue probably wiil serve to develop some interesting features. The early days of the session will be marked by the reorganization of the Sen- ate committees so far as may be neces- sary, and a_caucus of the Republican members will be held to-morrow for the purpose of considering this question and appointing a_committee to suggest names for the vacancles. The most important place to be filled is_that of chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations. Tt is generally conceded that Senator Cul- lom, who is the senior Republican mem- ber of that committee, will succeed ta the chairmanship. St PROCEEDINGS IN THE HOUSE First Business in Order Is the Selec- tion of Officers. WASHINGTON, Dec. 1L—The pro- gramme for the opening day'in the House to-morrow, although it will follow rigidly routine precedents, will be interesting, and, to a certain extent, picturesque. Ad- missions to the galleries will be by card, of which twoshave been issued to each member, and the galleries will no doubt be crowded to their fullest capacity. The desks of the popular members will be laden with flowers. The clerk of the House will call the members to order at noon, and after prayer by the chaplain the roll will be called by States. The Speaker will be formally elected and escorted to the chair by a committee. | General Henderson, whose re-election as | Speaker is assured, will then address the Housg after which Bingham of Penn- s,\'l\'a&la, father of the House (a titular honor conferred upon the oldest member in point of continuous service), will ad- minister the oath to him. The Speaker, in turn, will administer the oath to the members-elect. The old officers of the House, who were*rechosen by the Repub- lican caucus, will then be re-elected and sworn in. Following this resolutions will be adopted to appoint committees to in- form the President and the Senate that the House has elected General Henderson Speaker and McDowell clerk. By resolution Speaker Henderson will then appoint a committee of three to join a similar committee from the Senate to inform the President that a quorum' of CANNOT HELP TO FIGHT THE RAILWAY COMBINATION Governor of Idaho Anxious to Help, but Can Find No Law to Prevent Consolidation. BOISE, Idaho, Dec. 1.—Governor Hun. has replied to Governor Van Sant’s letter asking Idaho to aid in fighting the North- ern raflway consolidation. His letter in part is as follows: I agree with your views as to the danger of this monstrous combination to the commercial interests of all the territory through which these lines may pass without competition, but 1 regret to say, and I think that sentiment is shared generally by the people of the State, that Idaho has no constitutional provision or legislative statute that cam be used to prevent the comsolidation of two or more corporations of this kind. But I am able to stute that this question wiil be the subject of action by our next Legislature and that you have the moral support and sympathy of the people of this State, who will pray to God to strengthen your hands and give you the courage and persever- ance In your great fight in the cause of the people.

BOTH BRANCHES OF NATIONAL CONGRESS WILL ASSETIBLE TO-DAY AND ORGANIZE - - the two houses has assembled and that Congress is ready to recelve any com- munication he may have to make. Reso- lutions to adopt temporarily the rules of the last House and to fix the daily hour of meeting also will precede the event of opening day, the annual seat drawing. The President’s message will be withheld until Tuesday. General Grosvenor of Ohio probably will make the announcement to the House of the death of the late President McKinley, and offer the resolutigns upon which the House will act. On Tuesday that portion of the Presi- dent’s message referring to the death. of McKinley probably will be referred to a select committeé to arrange a programme of eulogies. It is a remarkable colnci- dence that McKinley was the chairman of the committee which arranged the programme when President Garfield died. Blaine pronounced the eulogy upon that occasion. Elihu B. Washburn was chair- man when Lincoln died, and George Ban- croft, the historian, was the orator. After Tuesday the House probably will ad- journ three days at a time until Con- gress recesses for the Christmas holidays. Speaker Henderson will occupy this time preparing his committee lists, which will be announced as soon as the House con- venes after the holidays. Practically no business will be transacted before the holidays. LEGISLATION TO AID STOCKMEN. Bill Will Be Introduced Providing for Leasing Land for Grazing Purposes. During the present session of Congress the following bill will be introduced in the interest of the nation’s stock-growers. It provides for the leasing for grazing purposes of vacant public domain and re- serves all rights of homestead and min- eral entry: Section 1. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, that all vacant public lands west of the one hundredth meridian west from GreenwicH\ shall be leased for stock-grazing purposes, subject to the right of homestead and mineral entry under existing | laws of the United States, and when so entered; to be canceled from the lease. Sec. 2. Leases of such lands shall not be subject to bid. The uniform rental shall be 2 cents per acre per annum, payable anually in advance, and preference for such leases shall be given fo owners of cultivated agricultural land, for leasable lands abutting upon thelr freehiolds iIn proportion of ten acres of lease- hold to one acre of frechold. A like preference of ten acres of leasehold to one acre of free- hold shall be given to stock growers who are also freeholders; this preference shall apply only to lands within the counties upon which their stock habitually range. If in case of either of the preferences above provided there shall not be sufficient leasable lands in the county to give each person entitled to the pref- erence the maximum proportion of ten acres to one, then said lands shall be prorated be- tween the persons entitled to such preference. The further preference to lands not leased under the foregoing provisions of this section shall be given to stock growers who were in actual use and_occupancy of said lands during the year ending on January 1, 191, to be leased to them in proportion to their respective inter- ests in and use thereof. Where the States lease State lands the bona fide holders of such State leaseholds shall be beneficlaries of the prefer- ence given above to stock growers who are also freeholders: provided that such State lease- holds are not held by any one person in tracts exceeding 640 acres in any one body. Freehold rights under this section shall not apply to townsite property, mor to any lands deriving tith from Spanfsh or Mexican grants. Sec. 3. All leases to run ten years, with the privilege of renewal for a second term of ten years, the first lessee having the preference for such second term, provided he shall have com- plied with the requirements of this law and the terms of his lease and has not allowed his leasehold to deteriorate. Sec, 4. The revenue derived from the leases herein authorized shall be paid into the treas- ury of the United States, and the net revenue, after deducting the expense of administering this act, shall be held in trust to be paid to such States and Territories whereln the lease. holds are situated as provide a State engineer and other proper means for devoting the same to the diversion or storage of water and its distribution for irrigation of agricultural lands.. Only such revenue as is derived in any State or Territory shall be returned to it for such purpose. Sec. 5. The Secretary of the Interlor shall have the power to cancel a lease when its holder becomes ineligible, and shall administer this act, making all needful rules and regulations | for’ that purpose. 5 Sec. 6. Nothing in this act shall deprive the United States of control of all reservations for any purpose. now existing or hereafter created. Sec. 7. This act to take effect and be in force from and after its passage.

Pt A Colonial Sugars in Better Demand. | PARIS, Dec. 1.—The internal revenue re- port shows that the beet sugar produc- tion for the month of October, this year, is practically the same as for 1900, but the deliveries for consumption have fallen off from 60,000,000 kjlograms to 43,000,000 kilo- grams. The customs returns indicate that_colonial sugars are largely replace ing home-grown sugar. The outlook*for home growers and manufacturers is not as good as last year. —_—— Christmas Holidays in Mexico.

Theodore Roosevelt (oS, e = CERS OF SENATE AND HOUSE RESPONSIBILITIES lNCREASIE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF THE NATION AND THE PRESIDING OFFI- BY CONVENING OF CONGRESS. 1 OF REPRESENTATIVES, WHOSE ing statement of its purpose and effects has been Issued: The purpose of this proposed legislation is to prevent the further free use in common of the public domain in the arld grazing region, and thereby to prevent the destruction of the forage by overstocking the same, by which process the land is becoming desert, the country more arid, and springs.and watercourses losing their flow. Used free and in common, the West- ern range is practically without law, and the ¢competitors for its occupancy attempt to hold it' against each other by violence and armed | force, causing the destruction of life and prop- erty. This domain belongs to all of the people, but has been used by a few as a means of acquiring wealth, without compensation to t rest of the owners. The availability of the re- glon involved for agricultural settlement has been injured by the increase of its aridity that has foliowed the extirpation of its covering of grasses and forage plants, and the land’s po- tentiality as a producer of wealth will disap- pear unless it s protected by law and its users are compelled to pay for and protect what they occupy. The proper policy of this Government is the encouragement of settlers to occupy all parts of the public domain upon which families may gain a living. To this end the proposed law reserves all the rights of the homestead set- tler. The Government encourages the adven- turous mineral prospector, and this law re- serves all his rights to makes mineral entry in_any part of the domain that it covers. Besides these prospective entrymen there are existing rights that must be protected. The present agricultural settler, who tills land, raises crops and keeps domestic stock, finds under the present system of free use of the public domajn that flocks and herds are driven upon his” freehold, consume the forage upon which his domestic animals should feed and inflict such injury upon him that he is fre- quently constrained to sacrifice his property and seek another location, only to be again over- taken by the same intolerable conditions. The proposed law gives him the preference of a leasehold on abutting public domain, which he may protect from the trespasses which now injure him. - The next preference is given to fréeholders whose pursuits are pastoral, to protect them- selves in like manner from nomads, and secure the range needed for thelr stock. ds not taken by either of the foregoing classes of freeholders shall be subject to lease by stockgrowers who were In use and occu pancy during the year ending on January 1, 1901, each to have a leasehold in proportion to his interest, so that none, not even the least, can be excluded. The possessors of leaseholds to State lands, SENATOR CLARK MAKES NEW RAILROAD ALLIANCE Joins Issues With Thomas F. Walsia of Colorado to Build a Trans- continental Line. DENVER, Dec. 1.—The Denver Post to- day says: Senator Willidm A. Clark of Montana and Thomas F. Walsh of Colo- rado have, it is rumored, joined issues in railroad construction and will build prac- tically a new transcontinental railroad. The \Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific is said to be in with Senator Clark and ‘Walsh. The new transcontinental line would give Senator Clark an outlet for his Los Angeles and Salt Lake road, which has been left left without one through the ab- sorption of the two Colorado mountain lines by George Gould. The Rock Island would get a new and short route to Cali- ornia. ‘Walsh some time ago Incorporated a railroad to be built from Ouray via-Gun- nison to Pueblo. If his alliance with Sen- ator Clark is {:flec&gfl he will build on probably to Liberal, Kans., where he will connect his road with the Rock Island. It is said that Senator Clark and Walsh will meet this week in Washington and there complete the deal whereby they will become partners in railroad construction, in area limited to' 640 acres, are given the same | rights as freeholders. The owners of the vast Mexican and Spanish | grants are excluded from freehold or other | privilege under this law, by limiting its bene- ficlaries to_holders under the land laws of the United States, and townsite freeholders are- also properly excluded. The fixing of time of pastoral occupancy at the year ending on-January 1, 1901, is to ex- clude combinations of capital forming for the purpose of - getting leasehold control of these lands, to the exclusion of the Western range- men and stockgrowers Who now occupy them in common. To absolutely guard the rights of all against combination by a fcw the leases are not open to bid. There will be no auction at which the | strong can evercome the weak. Every man has his rights defined by the law and none can take them awar. The leasehcider, being compelled to pay for th> Jand he ses. w.ll protect its forage against extermination by overstocking. The vegetable covering will increase and will more and more conserve the moisture, increasing the means of irrigation. The law proposes that the net reve- nues of the leases shall be held by the Unitea States In trust for the use of the States where it is derived, in-the storage and distribution of water. -Such.use of the rentals will be the devotion of an existing public asset to a public puipose of. supreme importance to the arid West, and will render unnecessary the demand that the taxpuyer: of the whole country be bur- dened for thi.t purpose by Congressional appro- priations. It is intended that the bill shall protect the foraxe of the puhlic range, get revenue from its use, defend the rights of sent freehold- ers, exclude no existing interest, however small, and shall acceierate settlement and tillage by conservation of moisture and the support of irrigation.
