county Nero has been an exemplary
prisoner, and although his sentence was
for one year his good behavior, under
the rules of the institution, earned him
one months Communication. The II
months expired the other day, and Ward
en- Campbell informed him he was at
liberty to depart.
Nero said he did not want to CO. Life
within the prison walls was for him pref
cradle to being turned adrift in cold
world.
The warden told Nero he was sorry for
him, but his time was up, and he would
be required to leave the home to which
time.
Then Nero adopted new tactics. He
raised the point that he did not have to
accept the months rebate on his sentence
for good behavior unless he pleased to.
He did not desire to accept it, and there
fore could not be put out until the expira-
ton of the full IL months.
This raised an entirely new question,
and Deputy Warden Cuddy was dis
patched to lay the case before Governor
Mcconnell. The governor instructed
Warden Campbell to allow Nero to re-
main until the return of the attorney
general. The governor said if it should
be shown such action was wrong he
would pay for Nero's board out of his
own pocket.-Boise Statesman.

Midland and Gulf Roads Tied Up and
Rio Grande Crippled.

DENVER, Col, June 30.-The railroad
strike is spreading rapidly in Colorado.
The Colorado Midland, branch OF the
Santa Fe and the Gulf road completely
tied up tonight and the Denver & Rio
Grande is seriously crippled. Judge Hallett
issued a restraining order against Gulf
road strikers similar TO that issued for the
Santa Fe. Two hundred deputies have
gone to Trinidad TO enforce the order of the
court. The Denver & Rio Grande succeeded
to-day in getting trains through Pueblo
and Salida, where the employees have
struck, but at Grand Junction all the Den
Yer & Rio Grande broad gauge and mar
row gauge trains are stalled. The Santa
Fe managed TO send train east from La
Junta and one north from Pueblo.
The Rock Island excursion train, with
a party Of Republican League members,
are bound for Rockville, but could not go
beyond Pueblo and the eXcursionistS re-
turned to Denver on the Rio Grande. So
far the Union Pacific and Burlington have
had no trouble.
Information was received here by Rio
Grsnde officials that the men at Grand

roads centering there have been settled
and trains will hereafter run as usual
A telegram has been received from Presi-
dent Debs ordering out the members of
the organization employed on the Union

men for refusing to handle Pullman cars.
The order is supposed to refer to the Den

MAIL SERVICE IMPROVING.
View of the Situation Taken by POST
Office officials.

WASHINGTON, June 30.-Despite the de-
veloDments of the Pullman strike to-day
postal officials consider the Conditions Of
the mail service very much improved. The
postal situation in California remains un-
changed. Official dispatches deny the stGfy
sent out from Chicago last night that
fifteen postal cars were blockaded that
city and the division superintendent tele-
graphed: mo mails have accumulated at
Chicago so far. All regular mail trains
are moving nearly on time with a few
slight exceptions"
At St Paul the situation is reported i'm
proved. The Great Northern carries no
Pullman cars. but uses its own sleepers,
and the Northern Pacific is sending out
trains again, though there are some trains
blocked at Billings and Livingston Mont,
and Hope. Ida. These are expected TO get
through Immediately. The Chicago, st.
Paul. Minneapolis & Omaha line was badly
crippled but the company is making
strong efforts to run it's trains. Reports of
the delays in Montana and Idaho and
Cairo, Ill, were forwarded to-day to the

United States marshals in the territory in

afternoon briefly outlined The policy of
the department. He said: Under the de-
cisions of the courts and The opinion OF

ment Of that strike was accomplished,
every effort is being made by the Post
