PAPERS REFUSED
CAPITAL MUST SHARE THE LOSSES
Union Pacific Reorganization Plan Too
Selfish to BE of Value.

Omaha, Nov. 3O.-George w. Vroo-
man, chairman of the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers, and the Union
Pacific grievance committee today an
nounced the position of the order on
the new reorganization plan proposed
by the receivers as follows:
Capital will be found arrayed against
the scheme as outlined by Receiver An
derson and his conferrees for the reason
that the holders of bonds will not agree
to accept anything less than the face
value of those bonds. Herein is the
question. Individual property holders
are compelled to sell their property at
present prices, not what it would be in
prosperous times. The depreciation
must be met by individuals, but capital
refuses to accept the changed condition
of things and there the difficulty of
final settlement rests. The laboring
man is confronted with these changes
and capital must come to the same in
evitable realization"

HlRscHFIeLo SEPARATION SUIT.
kilograms TO Witnesses Produced = The
Nurse Testifies.


Fargo. Nov. 3O.-Some kilograms sent
by Hirschfeld to Detective Deveroux
were sprung this morning. Hirschfeld
in his testimony denied that he ever
sent kilograms regarding Anderson and
other witnesses. He said Deveroux col
lected the evidence and he himself did
not know who the witnesses were or the
character of their evidence until they
appeared on the stand. Manager Hay
wood of the Western Union was ordered
to produce in court the kilograms. The
first read was regarding Bailey. the
Palmer house employe. Deveroux tele-
graphed that Bailey would not testify
for less than $500. Hirschfeld answered
that the testimony was not valuable
enough to give $50. Another from Dew
eroux, supposed to refer to Anderson
said: Refuses to come for less than
$500 and expenses" Hirschfeld an
swered, Hold to agreement for $500
and expenses" Deveroux answered,
Sent package by today's train" There
were others of a similar character.
An attempt was made to have all
kilograms to and from Helena produced.
This was bitterly fought by the plaintiff
and will be decided this afternoon.
Mrs Hirschfeld was called to the stand
and subjected to a rigid cross-examina-
ton, going practically over the whole
ground traversed in direct examination.
She answered all the questions practi-
cally as before.
In the afternoon Mrs. Duval, Mrs.
Hirschfeld's nurse, was called She tes-

UTE INDIAN SCARE MAcNIrIeo o..
Redskins Have as Much Right to BE in
Utah as Whites.

ttah as mites
Washington, Nov. 2s.-Secretary
Smith has received a telegram from
Governor West of Utah, concerning the
great Southern Ute Indians fighting
settlers in San Juan county. The Sec
rotary referred the telegram to the
war department with the suggestion
that General McCook be notified. Sec
rotary Smith does not request troops.
as asked by the governor. ItisAearned
at the Indian office that about three
years ago there was an agreement with
the Indians which was never ratified
by congress. and in 1t was a provision
that the Utes could visit the San Juan
country every year. They have been
doing 80 and have now been two months
in that country. Commissioner Brown
ing says the lands are public and the
Indians have as much right there as
the white people.
COLORADO NOT ALARMED.
Denver, Nov. 2S.-Dispatches from
Durango and vicinity indicate that the
Ute Indians have again become discon-
tented and are threatening to make
a raid into Utah and that settlers in
that neighborhood are constantly
alarmed. Those who are acquainted
with the Southern Utes do not believe
they have any intentions of commit
ting depredations and think the re-
ports of trouble are exaggerated. At
Durango there is located company of
the National Guard which has done
good service in acting as a check on the
Indians, but it is stated that they can
not be used on this occasion unless the
president should first call upon them.
All the state troops are under the or
ders of the president of the United
States and their services could be used
| if required
Adjutant General Tarsney has as yet
received no official notice Of the alleged
raid. IF there is any truth in the re-
port" said he, this morning IT believe
that 1t is merely this: The Indians
know that by agreement with the Unit
ed States government they are entitled
to move on the territory of Utah and see
no reason why they should not CO. Con-
sequently, if the report is true, it means
merely that they have resolved to wait
no longer and have simply gone. As
for the report that they have gone by
permission of Agent Day, think that
it is entirely false"

troops thus necessitated was the largest

that. he recommends a return to the law
