ran Miller from the house. Hobart was
arrested, but Miller refused to appear
against him on a charge of threats
against his life, and he was fined IS for
being drunk and disturbing the pea CO.
A bout O'Clock this evening Hobart went
to a livery stable, hired q horse, then
went to a restaurant and had lunch put
up; then he rode up IN 'front.' OF Miller s
saloon, dismounted, walked to the door
and taking deliberate aim fired shot
from his Winchester, the bullet taking

Believed to Have Been Hired to Injure Two
Officers
Wong Wing ST was arrested last night
bv officer Robbins and charged with va
erancy. The capture of this Chinese
criminal was good piece of work and
probably will prevent considerable trou-
BILE among the almond-eyed gentlemen OF
the city.
Wong Is believed to have been hired to
do away with Officers Robbins and Nc
Kenzie, and yesterday his actions would
certainly seem to indicate that this was
true. He kept following MIR. Robbins for
a nun Der of blocks about dusk last even
ing. and when the officer started after
him he threw something into a store,
which was no doubt revolver. When
captured Wong had no weapon upon him.
1t appears that the Chinese are most
DESTROYS for the removal of the two othc-
ers mentioned, and have, it is rcportei,
subscribed $500 to have their wish carried
out. Wong is one of the worst hishblnd
ers ana is at the head of the boycott
against the See Zip company.

steep the last quarter of mile, and near
the bottom it curves sharply off beside q

Almost at the top the harness broke and
the horse became unmanageable and ran
rapidly. 1t gradually increased its speed
and fear until it was gong at its fastest
and the vehicle behind threatened to top

realized That 1t would be almost certain
death to 20 over into the ravine. As the
horse came nearer. goaded by fear, that
outcome was sure. Mrs. Dawson turned
down the top Of the buggy and. picking
up the child, stood upright on the seat.
Just as the wheels reached the edge of
the ravine she sprang out. The mo-
mentum of the carriage jerked it off the
ground and it swung over the ravine and
fell dragging the horse with it, Mrs.
Dawson, after a moment, was able to get
up. She broke ali arm 10 save the child

KNAPP ON RAILROAD POOLS
In Answer to Senator Chambers
Letter
THE VIEWS OF THE COURTS
The Punishment of Crime Is Only an
Incident
No Combination OF Carriers Can Be n1re
Powerful or Alarming Than Their
Actual Cons oIida,ion
Associated Press Special Wire.


WASHINGTON, OCT. q. Interstate
Commerce Commissioner A. KNAPP has
written an open letter to Senator Oh and
Ter of New Hampshire in reply to the lat
ter's criticism of him in connection with
the new trunk line agreement.
Mr.. Knapp says his published state
msnts must notsbe attributed to the com-
mission and reiterates his assertion that
the detection and punishment of Grim on
created by the interstate com merce statute
is only an incident to the scheme and
aim of ''regulation," the feature with
which the com ission has no power to
deal. He adds that the courts seem to
have reached a conclusion different from
the view taken by Senator Chandler, that
the alleged agreement which trunk lines
are about to enter into is illegal and
comes under either the anti pooling or
anti trust laws. He concludes as follows
1T is evident that no com binaton Of
carriers. whether formed in evasion of ex-
listing laws or organized under legalized
pooling. car be more powerful or alarm
ing than their actual consolidation. In
the New England states the process of
absorption, in one way or another, has
gone on until there is now practically no
competition in the railroad service OF
that section. So far as | am aware, this
consolidation has 1ot resulted in an in -.
crease of charges, put on the contrary

tions in rates, by i'm proved facilities and
the better accommodation of the public.
Fewer com plants come to us from tina
region than from any other part OF the
country. | believe the people IN that ter
ritory would not welcome return to
competitive conditions. l am yet to be
convinced that similar results might no,
fBilry be expected if co-opeartive action
should lie substituted for compulsory
warfare ON broader scale in more ext
ensive field. In short, believe the prln-
ciple of association should be applied to
public transportations that the power to
regulate commerce should be exerted to
secure firm and unquestloned control OF
the rates and charges which carriers may
exact

w. T. STEAD ON MONROEIShl
The EbullitiJn of Sentimen. Regarding
Venezuela
England Does Not Fear Arbitration, but Rep
aration for High-Handed Outrage
Must Come First
Associated Press Special Wire.

Associated Press Special Wire.
LONDON, Oct. 24.-Mr. W. r. Stead
has a long article this afternoon in the
Westminster Gazette Oh Monroeism, in
which he says:
"Englishmen will do well not to belit-
tie the significance of the ebulllt!on of
American sentiment on the question of
the Venezuelan frontier. 1t must be taken
with the usual discount. and is no doub Vt
due to the system by which foreign
affairs are discussed by bawling journal
lists rather than by suave diplomats; but
it is serious nevertheless. Its gravity con-
sists in two facts. neither of which has
anything to do with the merits of the
question in dispute. In the first place,
for the first time since the civil war the
Americans have built a navy of which
they have some reason to be proud and
which, sooner or later, they will use
against somebody. In the second place,
it is equally significant that the Amer-
can press assures the United States that
the Monroe doctrine has been informally
adopted as a national faith by the Amer.
lean people and the dissent to the New
York World (referring to the report Of
the Bayard-Salisbury interview probably
has basis OF truth.
Considering the disreputnbe char
acter of the Venezuelan government, it
seems extraordinary that any civilized
power should contemplate such crime
as trusting a peaceable region under the
rule or government of Spanish American
adventursrs whose only claim to the

A Short Lease

The suit of Robina French VS.. B. H..
Harbert and wife and HI. j. Ielande was
before Judge Shaw and jury in DEPART
ment five yesterday.
The suit is one to recover $500 for
damages supposed to have been suffered
by plaintiff. That lady purchased the
lease OF the second story of the Lelande
block, 12414 South Spring street. The
lease was originally made to Mrs. Kath-
crime Simmons, and il May, 1893, as
signed to the Harberts.
The plaintiff claims that she leased, as
she thought at the time, the premises for
three years, but found later that 1t was
for only one year. She had been put 10
heavy expense in furnishing and fitting,
and albeit the lease had been continued
from mouth to month, her business had

Owned by forty-four nominees holding
fifty -one shares of stock. The company
started with III stockholders. and the

original agreement, when only seven
stockholders are left the property becomes
theirs. The original capital was $23, 900.
1t was intended to start with a capitaliza-
ton of $50, GOO, but the company was not
successful in reaching that amount. AS
most OF the surviving shareholders are
aged people, it will only be few years
5efore the nun Der, seven, will have been
reached, and then they will take the
property and the company will go out Of
