Russian Mutiny Grows
Disaffection in Manchurian army is
spreading1 and it is believed at St. Pet
ersburg that entire army and navy
will join revolutionists
[Special Dispatch to the Daily Alaskan.]
St Petersburg, Nov. 30 ? Advices from Geu. Linevich say the iussurreetion is
spreading in the Manchurian army. Poor quarters and poor food probably more than
anything else are causing the movement to spread.
The agitation on the part of the people is attracting the attention of both the
army aud navy, and it is expected here there will be a general revolt and that both will
joiu the revolutionists within a very few days. It is confidently belived here that the
whole empire will be in a state of chaos within a very short time. The agiia tors are
working so quietly and with precision and organizotion that the government is unable to
put them down.
INSURRECTIONISTS FIRM
St. Petersburg, Nov. 29 ? The Sevastapol mutineers are still firm, neither the
government nor the mutineers themselves are aware of how strong they really are.
CZAR QUITS RUSSIA
St. Petersburg, Nov. 29 ? The czar aud czarina with their children and attendants
have gone to Copenhagen where they will remain indefinitely.

Is Dick Ryan Traitor?
Nome delegate on self-government ptat
form will not pres3 territorial govern
ment on congress, i aying it might hin
der investments of capital in district
(Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan)
Seattle, Nov. 29 ? Dick Ryan, of Nome, as been designated by the other delegates
to proceed to Washington and present the mem rial adopted by the recent Alaskan con
vention. He leaves here for that purpose. Ryan says he will .not push the question of
territorial government for Alaska for the r< ison that it might discourage capital from
coming to Alaska. He s.iys he believes in wait ng for congress to devise some equitable
form of governn ont. He says the first thin.; that will be urged by him will be the
appropriation of ?1,000, 000 for Alaskan roads. He is also favorable to the idea of a
commission to handle the affairs of Alaska if elceted by the people. He says the people
are becoming tired of being governed by appointive officers.
Ryan favors the appointment of an Ala Kan Committee in each house of congress
and willl ask that it be done.
TAWNEY FAVOR1) COMMISSION
Washington, Nov. 29 ? Congressman J. A. Tawney, Minnesota, who visited Alaska
last summer, will recommed that there be a sp cial Alaska committee in each house of
congress the same as is provided for the District of Columbia. He will also recommend a
commission to consist of three members to reco. lmend appropriations required and needed
changes in the laws, the report to be referred t the Alaska Committee of Congress and
they to take evidence from those interested. rJ he commssion idea for Alaska is growing
and we will hear more of it this session.
Members of congress do not consider thi' appointment of delegates by the Alaskan
convention' that was recently held in Seattle as important, though it is hoped it will make
it unnecessary for self-constituted spokesman t come down here with knives out for some
officer holder and [ockets filled with indorsements for some office which they are begging.
CUSHMAN TO REINTRODUCE BILL
Washington, Nov. 29 ? Congressman C' ishman called upon President Roosevelt
today. He informed the executive that he will introduce his Alaskan delegate |bill again
the same as at pi evious sessions.
