scene of the outbreak with the wealers.
The deputies were armed with revolv-

might be some fighting done. Chief

1t was said at the Office of General
Manager Dickinson that the common
wealers would allow no one to come
near them. It is believed that their
reason in refusing to allow a stranger
near them was 10 prevent spies from
ascertaining their movements. The
men were unanimous in the declaration
that they would not walk East, and
sioutly asserted that they would capture
train and ride.

Assistant General Solicitor Kelly. of the
Union Pacific, were closeted with JUS

afternoon. The en;ire subject was
carefully discussed. The men in charge
are reticent, but would acknowledge
that they anticipated trouble, as the
commonwealers were growing restless
and desperate, and would soon make a
break for a train east. if they gave up
peacefully there would be no difficulty.
but il they make resistance a conflict
will ensue.
Just what will be done with the men
If captured is not definitely known, or,
at least, if it has been decided upon, it
has been kept secret. The probability
is that the men will be brought to
Omaha and placed in the coliseum until
they can be brought before the United
States court. Later kilograms from
Juiesburg this afternoon say the COM
monwealers are dividing into two fac
tioDs: One is composed of those in

the desperate men and the men who are
determined to secure train and come
East at all hazards.

said that Receiver Latimer's report to

S1S5.000 Of gilt-edge paper. $4,000 of

900 Of doubtful paper, on which at least
100000 would be realized. He said
that i'll his opinion every dollar of the

full; there would be $500. 900 left for the
stockholders. A movement is OH foot
among the stockholders to reorganize
the bank. and the probabilities are that
1t will be recognized within the next

day for a meeting of the miners In
Columbus Thursday. June 10. He asks
the miners to select their best men to
represent them, as business Of vast i'm
portaflce will have to be acted upon.
Secretary Mcbride, of the National
Miners organization. states that unless
the compromise is accepted by the
miners general meeting will be
called. at which the national officers
will tender their designations. Mcbride
gives 1t as his opinion that unless the
Ohio miners accept the agreement they
will be compelled to 90 back to work at
40 cents a ton, instead of GO. The ma
tionaI officers formerly treated Adams
and his theories with contempt. but
since he has so strong a following and
Endorsement of his course on the agree
ment ne Is recognized as q formidable
factor.
President Mcbride recognizes the i'm
portance of giving the Adams move
ment more than passing attention.
Adams today telegraphed j. W. Murray,
vice president of the Illinois miners,
that thesexecutive board had signed
over his head, that the men would not
accept the compromise, and asking him
to stand firm. Murray. at the recent
meeting, refused with Adams TO sign
the scale. The harmony of action be-
tween these two together with the fact
that the miners are following Adams,
holding meetings. and demanding the
resignation of the national officers, leads
to the conclusion that Adams is getting
IN line to fill McBride's place should the
latter resign. Mcbride claims that the
action of the executive board in signing
the scale was in accord with the views
of the district presidents, OF whom
Adams was one.

Underground Pipes are Affected Princi-
pally in the Seighborhood of Power
Houses.
In connection with the appearance OF
electrolysis in this city the current issue
of the Engineering Record speaks of a
similar trouble in Omaha, Neb., as fol-
lows:
The elcctrolysis of some underground
pipes in Omaha, Neb., principally in
the vicinity of the power houses, forms
the subject of an interesting report
made by NJ. j. Cowgirl, city electrician,
and sent us by City Engineer Andrew
Rosewater. At one point the pipe af-
fected was about At feet deep. The return
electric wires ran parallel with it just
under the paving blocks and were con
nected to the rails of the cable line. The
wires used were estimated to be two No.
90. No drop was found between thenf
and the rails, which showed good cleo
trical connection between them, but be-
tween the rails and the pipe there was a
difference in potential of 10 volts.
When the ammeter was connected the
current was found. to average about 100
amperes. As the ammeter had q very
low resistance, the difference Of poten-
tial as shown by the voltmeter, when
the connection between the pipe and
wires was made in this way, was only
three volts. Consequently Mr.. Cowgirl
advocates connecting the rails and pipes
with wires of ample conductivity, and
if this connection is liable to be de-
stroyed, to have it SO that it can be ex-
amined,n

Special Social Favors rendered Him at
High Court Functions.
London correspondence New York Sun.
The United States representative for
the first time took his place in the
highest rank this week at the royal
social functions. Mr.. Bayard stood last
but one in the small group of ambassa-
doris that tlanked the Prince of Wales at
the Queens levee. The prince on formal
occasions like this is no less strict than
the Queen herself in all matters of
etiquette. He prescribes even the
smallest details Of dress. Americans
who wear ordinary evening dress at
levees were notified recently to wear
white studs and plain white gloves, in
stead of with black braid. His royal
highness is quick to detect the slightest
irregularities. He noticed some fault
in the uniform OF British army officer
presented on Monday and embarrassed
the man beyond measure by remarking
in low tone when greeting him
Nothing like that" Indicating his
meaning by slight gesture.
Mr.. Bayard, by the way, succeeded in
securing an exception to one of the
ironclad rules of the court, which limits
names of foreigners on the court list
strictly to those whose rank of office
entities them to place there. Mr..
Bayard applied some time ago to place
the name Of Lloyd Griscom, his private
secretary, on this list. Griscom is a
clever, broad-shouldered 6.footer, only
81 years old, and of course without
official standing. The request agitated
the State Department and court circles
quite deeply, for no such privilege had
ever been granted to the other embassies
Finally Lord Roseberry invited the
young man to dinner together with Mr.
Bayard. The name has now been added
to the court list.

A Poor Joke Played by Pittsburg Man
and its Sequel.
SomeNpeople have poor appreciation
,of humor. This must be an awful load
to carry through life. On crisp, cold
day Bohemian and his friend stood in
front of q Pittsburg hotel holding down
The sidewalk, while they thought about
what they should do next. One of the
two was smoking. The other held an
uniighted cigar between his teeth. A
cable car came along, then horse car
with front platform crowded with
smokers. The sight of it revived in the
mind of the Bohemian faint shadow
Of an ancient joke. He smiled and sud-
denly beckoned theoretically to man
on the front Platform. As soon as the
man saw that he was the one wanted he
jumped off and came back to where the
Bohemian was standing
"Give me light, please" said the
latter grayely. Thanks.
"1hy, confound your impudence,
you didn't call me off that car to have
me give you light?"
"Now, don't get red-headed about it, y
replied the joker calmly; there's cable
car right behind"
But the jokee was one of those curl
GUS fellows who have no appreciation of
humor. He hauled off with his right
and big oath and down fell the joker
either hit by the oath or the fist, he
did not know which.
"Now, don't get red hot about it,"
said the other fellow. "You can catch
an ambulance around the corner" And
he broke for the cars again.
"That joke looked very funny when /
read 1t in the newspapers" said the
Bohemian, as his friend busted him off,
"but the thing doesn't seem to work
right, does it ?"
