his text the words of the mother of John
and James, two of the apostles, when she
asked Jesus that when His kingdom was
formed her one son might sit at HIS right
hand and the other at His left, to
which Jesus replied that it was
impossible, for 1t was spiritual

minister went on to analy re the feelings and

ANOTHER CHAPTER
In the So-Cailed onion Pacific Grain
Weighing Scandal.

SSduVhf'
DENVER, COL. Dec. 6.-George l..
Carm en-, superintendent of the western
weighing bureau, has returned to Den
yer and with his coming another chap
tor In the so-called Union Pacific grain
weighing scandal has come to light.
Will Ryan, chief c!orls in Freight A gent
Smiths office, and O. $. Garfield, revis-
ing clerk, have disappeared. They
have not been at their posts of duty
since Friday or Saturday. Their dis.
appearance is naturally coupled with
the results Of the Investigations that
have been going on for the past two
weeks. 1t will be remembered that a
warrant was once sworn out for Cam
fields arrest, but it was never served.
The present whereabouts of Ryan
md Garfield are unknown. II is
charged that the frauds were not. per.
pctrated in the yards Mt Jersey, as was
1T first intiinated but that the base of
operations was in the freight Office of
the Union Pacific. II is also charged
that the majority of grain firms in the
city are Implicated and the finger OF
suspicion, as is usually the case under
such circumstances, is being pointed
at random, regardless OF whom it hits.
Checking back for the last forty DAYS
n discrepancy of at least 81, 900 has been
found. IL is believed that the grain
men, not the railway clerks, got the
lions share OF this amount.
