'Ehe Company Appeals to the Men.

TOPEKA, March 1s.-A notice signed by Vice President Smith and General Manager Goddard of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe has been issued to the striking employees of the road. It speaks rsgretfully of the ao ton of the men, calls attention to the agree ment existing between them and the conpa- ny, and says it has abstained from asking the men to handle "Q." freight although it can not promise to continue to disobey the laws of the United States by doing so. It says further that if the strike is continued it must result in heavy loss to the company and throw many other employees out uf work, while the O. B. and Q, instead of being in jured as is probably intended, will be aided by the erippling of one of it's principal cona- petitors. In conclusion the officers appeal to the men to return to work by p. m. Thursday, when if they have not resumed the employing of new men will begin.

HE STOLE HIS HOSTS FAMILY.

Remarkable Story Brought Out in a
 Shooting Case in Charleston.
 CHARLESTON, March 19.-In December last stranger named Falkner arrived in Sum-
 merville, village twenty miles from here. He represented that he was piano tuner and obtained board in the house of August Heune, an old German who kept store in the vil- lage. Heune's family consisted of his wife, a daughter of fourteen and two sons of twen- ty and twelve years respectively. Falkner seemed to have bewitched Mrs. Heune and her daughter and younger son. He took charge of the house, put old Heune up in the parret and himself occupied room adjoining that occupied by Mrs. Heune and her dauRh- ter and communicating with it. The old man says he applied to a justice and the owner If the house, who refused to aid him, and he
 was forced to acquiesce in the new family arrangement After living two months in Summerville, during which time Falkner had obtained complete control over the mother and daughter, he determined to move to Charleston All the furniture was packed up and skipped here. Then Falkner, in com pany with Heune's wife and daughter and younger son, came to Charleston where he set up housekeeping with his stolen family. The elder son to-day went to the house and shet Falkner, the ball entering his mouth and coming out of his cheek, and then gave himself up to the police. Falkner's wound \ is not dangerous. Mrs. Heune and daughter still cling to Falkner and will not leave him.

The Mails Will be Carried.

CHICAGO, March 18.-The threatened crash between the Postofiee department and the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe company was averted by an amicable agreement early to- day before the strike was declared off by the Brotherhood. T. B. Nash, general superin- tendent of the railway mail service, said this evening in explanation of the matter that Vice President Smith had directed his men to see that the mails were moved promptly over the Santa Fe company's lines and that whenever they found iJ impossible to get engineers to move passen- gers and freight, but who are willing to haul the mails. that trains be ordered out with mails only. While it was believed the com pany would be able to run most of their trains ordinarily, it was understood that if trains were run for mails only but one train a day each way would be expected This harmonized the entire diff culty between the department and the Atchi son management, and it is believed that should there be strikes on other lines the same policy as that adopted by Mr. Smith, vice president of the Atchison, will be fol- lowed.

EMPEROR FREDERICK
Showing Much Despondency Since Xii
 Retnrn fo RarlFn


 Return to Berlin.
 BERLIN, March 1S.-Serious reports con- corning the Emperor's condition are again in circulation. The Enpsror's despoadenoy, which has been increased by the change from the blue sky of San Reno to the severe frost and deep snow of Berlin, causes great anxie- ty. Although he can speak his voice is so thick and husky and his pronunciation of vowe1s is so imperfect that only those who have been constantly with him, such as the Empress and Dr. Mackenzie, can understand him.
 Chaplain Koegel after reading service for Empress Augusta in the palace this morning went to Char1ottenburg to oficiate at the service for the whole imperial family in the castle chapel. The Emperor walked erect in a trailing crape cloak by the side of the Em- press, but sat during the entire service. Dr. Koegel's touching sermon drew many tears. There is foot of snow on tho ground and it 1 is impossible for the Emperor to venture out. Whenever Dr. Mackenzie takes exercise in the garden of the palace he is followed at the desire of Empress Victoria by 8 couple of detectives.
 | It is stated that the marriage of Prince Henry of Prussia and Princess Irene of Hesse has been postponed six months. In spite of the freezing wind large crowds of people visited the route of the funeral pro cession to-day to see the decorations. The black drapery, which cost 150, 900 marks, will be distributed among the poor. All the foreign princes drove te Chariot tenburg to bid farewell to their msjesties. All were received by the Empress and 8 few l by the Emperor.

 Signed J. CoNRoE,
 Chairman General Grievance Committee.
 Trains were moved today with some regu- .larity. The California and New Mexico to leave at 1O:10 a. m and the Denver and Utah express due to leave at 11:15 were consoli- dated and left at 11:30 with Ben Horton in the cab. No. 71 of the Southern Kansas left st 1915 a. m., thirty five minutes late. The Colorado express due at 6 8. n. ar- rived at 6.45 8. m. The east bound California and north bound Texas ex- press due to arrive at 4:30 8. m. and 6:15 p. m. respectively were reported aban- doned. The trains on the Kansas City, Fort Scott and Gulf road all went out on time this morning with no indications of trouble. On the Burlington trains are all running on time. The depot presented a quiet appearance all day as there was little interest taken in the movements of trains and the feeling was that the strike was over. As one of the men mounted his train an old engineer standing near by turned and said: "Well, boys, fall in. The last man to go back will be the one who gets left It is only matter of time now" His prediction was verified when at six o'clock Chairman Conroes notice was is- sued. The men took the matter philosophi- cally and this evening nearly all of them in the city were applying to Assistant Superin- tendent Spoor for orders, transportation, etc.
 Chairman Conroe returned to-day from Topeka where he was in conference yesterday with Governor Martin and the Sante Fe off cials He at once called meeting of the committee here and it is understood the preparatory steps towards issuing the notice declaring the strike off were taken. Chair man Conroe quietly boarded a Rock Island train for Chicago at o'clock and was fifty miles out of the city by the time his notice was promulgated. The prevailing opinion is that the conference at Topeka had considers. ble influence towards bringing about the set tlement. The men here assert that the com pany has agreed not to haul Burlington freight.
 Brotherhood Engineer Myers took out the Colorado express on the Sante Fe on time at 1915 last night. Nosfreight is moving on the line Chairman Hotchkins of the Fort Scott grievance committee, who came here Friday night to investigate matters, returned to Springfield last night. He said: s'There will be no strike on the Fort Scott for the present and am going home tonight. I have not been able to find any excuse for 8 strike on the part of our men. If strike is ordered it will be by someone else and am the only man having authority to order one."

READING Pa, Jan. THE Reading COM
pany have laid or about z, 0O0 railroad hands
within the past day or two. These men were
employed as engineers, fremen, conductors,
| brakemen, and coal-haudlers. Only those
persons employed in handling freight have
| been retained At some of the stations, how
ever, the crews will work alternately every
week
The strike in the coal regions is as solid as
1t can well be made and the Reading officials
are thoroughly uneasy. The public who are
the sufferers are getting angry and there is
no installing the temper of those who have
great interests at stake. The coal supply is
nearly exhausted and there is a quiet but g.
termiued spirit being manifested every where
in eastern Pennsylvania that President Cor
bin cease his war on the Knights Of Labor,
for the present at least. A well-known
furnace man said that il this trouble is not
quickly settled it will paralyze business and
stop the mills and factories all over the state
where they are depending upon anthracite
coal for fuel
Matters are growing more complicated
daily, and it is probable that the proprietors
of all the leading industries will call meet
ing within few days with a view of urging
the railroad officials to adopt more con-
cillatory policy. Business men throughout
the coal regions say that the miners were
never more determined than they are to-day,
and will resist the destruction Of their organ
izatioh to the bitter end They say it will
be the greatest battle on record, and should
it last any length Of time it will he impossi-
BILE to even estimate its consequences.
Boycotting, which has taken a strong hold
in the coal regions, has also commenced here.
On account 81 the difficulty experienced by
new men to obtain lodging places in the coal
regions additional passenger cars are being
fitted up here with hunks Old cars are
taken and lined for the purpose with planks.
Into each car an uncomfortable number of
men are crowded. Attempts to
board the men have failed The
various plans proved too expensive,
and the hands are now compelled to pay
rates for very ordinary meals ranging from
rs cents to 81 for breakfast, and 81 to $3.50
for dinner. Most of the men carry provis-
ions in kettles.

"scabs" attended, and not one of the girls
