No marks of violence were found on the body, ac- eording to the police, except slight abrasion on the head. This might have been caused oy blow from sandbag or it might have been received in the fall
 From papers in his possession he was identified as Hon. Frank F. Arbuckle, chairman of the Democratic state con- mittee of Colorado and receiver of the landoffice at Denver. His home is at Highlands. suburb of Denver.
 He was an operator at Russell, Kan. some years ago, and later became inter ested i'll politics and removed to Color ado, where under the Cleveland admin istration he was appointed land com missioner at Lamar, Colo, and later be- came chairman of the Colorado Demo- cratic state central committee.

 Other organizations perfected and suc- cessfully operated by Mir Arbuckle were the Beaver Brook Water company and Mountain Water company, which for many years supplied the citizens of Highlands, until consolidated with the Denver Union Water company. Den yer Highlands Electric company is an- other of his prosperous business vent ures.

 The police surgeon at the station house after thorough examination of the body of Mir Arbuckle declared in his opinion that death was due to heart failure, brought on by an attempt to as- cend the steps of the elevated station.

CLASH AMONG THE COURTS.
Federal and State Courts Differ About
 Santa Fe Receivers.


 TOPEKA, Nov. 20. 0.-The Santa Fe re- ceivership case yesterday developed in direct conflict between the state and Fedora courts. Anticipating the ap. pointment of q new receiver by Judge Meyers at 0skaloosa, A A Hurd, gen- eral al ney for the railway company obtain,d q supplemental order from Judge c. G. Foster of the United States circuit court. The order directs all tho officers and employees of the Atchison, Topeka ond Santa Fe Railway company in the state of Kansas to continue the operation, management and control Of said railway in the same manner as the same has heretofore been conducted un til the further order of the said United States circuit court shall be made
 The petition presented to Judge Eos ter holds that at the time of the ap- peintment of the receiver the United States circuit court held jurisdiction over the Jefferson county court and that the appointment of Martin is void Under the showing thus made Judge Foster granted restraining order against John Martin and the others named.
 MT. Hurd, the Santa Fe attorney, says in his judgment the Federal court has jurisdiction of the case. and he believes  Judge Foster will so hold.
 A big fight is likely to center in Judgo Fosters court lasting several days whf . the case shall come before him next week.

LARGEST DAILY CITY CIRCULATION

Those gentlemen who, by thelf hopes, are expressing thelr fears oy saving Col. Patterson will not make n contest for his seat in Congress can rest easy on that score. The contest will be made and the result is hot difficult to guess. - eo7t- mercid7 1ppeot.
 Yes. all Democrats anticipate the result; as Republican Congress IS famous for unseating those Con gressmen on the opposite side, and as Patterson is afliating with Ethe Republicans these days, Garmack' the Democrat, who was elected by Democratic votes, has cause to fear heinz unseated. 1t sounds rather neeuliar 10 hear "so-called free silver paper growing over the fact that Carmaek will be unseated and a gold.bug be given his place i'll Congress. The Commerctat- Appeat is as Janus-faeed on the free silver question, however, as it is on all other issues of importance,

the only dividing one It is not d negro oinsurrection, not q repetition of Hayti, or San Domingo. The education, the property, the patriotism of the island are with the Cubans.
 Meu, women and children are being murdered and their homes burned daily and hourly.
 The war is bankrapting the Spanish Government. Gen. Gampos was sent to quell the revolution. He was removed because he failed. Gen. WeYler, who was sent to sue ceed him, has also failed in the un- dertaking.
 1t is plain to all the world that Spain can never stop the waste of property and the heartless slaughter of innocent people, and in the meantime the Cuban forces, with the little aid they get from Ameri- can sympathizers, promise to pro- long the war indefinitely. It is therefore the duty of the United States 10 recognize the independence Of the Cuban Republic, and in the interest of humanity, in the interest of American citizens, ,aRd of imperial control of all America to support her position by such an exhibition of physical force as would render resistance pueril. The duty of the Cleveland administration as it is viewed by the great majority of American citizens is plain. Mem. phis Herald.

When all of the facts are taken in- to consideration, it appears to be the plain duty of the United States to accord the Cabans recognition as an independent people. The island of Cuba is geographically and geologically but an extension of the State of Florida. Americans now own property there to the value of $50, ,000, 900.
 This property is being destroyed day by day, and the outrages per petrated upon Americans resident in Cuba have grown to be such ire quent occurrence that they no longer attract more than passing notice.
 Gen. Bradley T. Johnson, in writ ing to the New York Joarnal on this subject, says:
 The insurrection now raging there is destroying it day by day, and hour by hour. There ought to be no misunderstanding of what this means. The line is sharply drawn in Cuba. All Cubans are on the side of the rebellion. All Spaniards are on the side of the government. There is practically no exception to the rule. There is no line of race distinction the line of nativity is

THE RIG HAT 4GAIN.

The management of the Metro nolitan Theater of New York has ruled out big hats, but the anti hat rule is masked under courteous request to the ladies who attend tho theater not to wear hats during the performance. Conyeniences are offered for the removal and checkingof hats.
 The plan of the Metropolitan Theater is the most promising among those suggested for the abolition of the big hat nuisance. The big hat question is essentially a question of courtesy in it's true sense. It is question of whether one shall disregard the rights and comfort of others or by a little thoughtfulness and self-sacrihce avoid offense.
 The social law, therefore, the rule of consideration for others, which is the foundation of good breeding and good manners, is the law to control it. When a request firmly persisted in is re-enforced by ex- ample and creates aeustom the big hat will go
 The social leaders of the city can, so to speak, knock off the big hat with cue blow by making it bad form, which is only another term for bad manners, as society regulates them. AS soon as theater hats become bad form the ladies who wear them to the theater because they cannot ride in carriages will go to any trouble to lay them aside.-Re- pubic.

Fever. Fully One-SIxth of all the deaths that occur ill the world are caused by consumption. And consumption can be cured. Doctors used 10 say that it was incurable, but the doctors were merely mistaken. IL would be strange if medical science did not make some progress. Many things were once considered impossible. The ocean steamer, the locomotive, the telegraph and telephone, the photograph, the electric light-all these were once inn possible, and once 1t was impossible to cure consumption. That was before the time of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Taken according to directions, this standard remedy will cure eS per cent. of all cases of consumption. Consumption is a disease of the blood. It used to be considered dis ease by itself It IS not. It is caused and fostered by impurity Ill the blood Purify the blood and restore the healthy action to the various organs of the body and con- sumption will be cured. It is by weakness and loss of vitality i'll the blood. It is cured by purity and richness of the blood-surely, certainly cured. Those who have consump- ton or any lingering bronchial, throat or lung disease, and those who are on the road to them, have positive remedy at hand. Any condition of the body that indicates weakness, any indication of impurity in the blood, should be attended to at once. Loss of appetite, loss of flesh, loss of vitality, nervousness, weakness and unnatural wear mess, are indications that the body is run n:ug down. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery makes the appetite good, the di- gestiou strong. It builds up solid, healthy flesh and vigorous strength Thousands of people have testified that 1t has really saved their lives. Some of these testimonials, together with hundreds of things that ev- erybody ought to know about health and sickness and medicine. have been embod- jed in Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Med ical Advissr.n This 1908 page medical work, profusely illustrated, will be sent free on receipt Of q one cent stamps to cover cost of n1ailins ouip Worlds Dispensary Medical Association.
