TOO MANY BROTHERS.
A Rancher Who Appears to be
Thus Afflicted.

A hard-working ranchman called at
the Sheriff's office yesterday to see
what steps he should take TO prosecute
some one-either his wife or brother,
or both, or several brothers and his
wife.
The man is a Swiss, and owns or lives
on a ranch out near Nicolaus. He has
wife and six children-that is, he has
the children, but his wife, he says, is
in the possession of one or more of his
brothers, several of whom live in that
locality. He had one of the children
with him when he called yesterday.
The man was referred to the Dis
trict Attorneys office. and to ].
Charles Jones he told his tale of woe.
He cannot speak English, so he first
told it to Deputy Sheriff Fisher. who
put il into English for Mr. Jones ear.
He said he and his wife had quar-
relied, and she promptly left her home
and went to that of one of his broth
ers, where she still is, and refuses to
return to him. He is firmly of the be-
lief that she is living an imoral life,
aided by his brothers. of whom he
spoke collectively, as. if there We're sew
eral of them together on one ranch.
Inc deserted husband ana Ialhef was
told that there was no process of law
by which his wife could be compelled
to live with him, and that he could
not have her prosecuted on mere sus-
picion. He went sorrowfully back TO
his ranch and his deserted children, and
what his next move will be remains
to be seen.
The man does not appear to be very
strong minded, and he may take it
into his head to go cunning for that
recreant wife and some of his own
broth

DEMANDS DAMAGES.
J. D. Morton Sues Constable Faris
for $1,000.

The trouble between Constable James
Faris, Jr, and J. D. Morton. proprietor
of the Oak Park Athletic Grounds, has
finally eliminated in a suit for dam
ages against the Constable, begun yes
terday by Morton's attorneys, r. T.
and W. H. Devlin.
Morton alleges that on Saturday,
July 31st, an attachment was taken
out against him by one H. c. Rollen-
bacher and the papers placed in Faris'
hands. Instead of levying the attach
ment on that day, Faris waited until
Sunday. when a ball game was in pro-
gress, and then took forcible possession
of the ticket Office $50 says the COM
plainD, ousted Morton, took charge OF
the money on hand and collected more
money from visitors to the park.
Mr. Morton declares that he has other
property on which the Constable could
have levied the attachment, and it
could have been levied on Saturday,
July 31st, instead of waiting till Sun
day and thus causing him unnecessary
trouble and annoyance.
For the part which Constable Faris
played on that memorable Sunday Mr.
Morton asks for damages in the sum
OF 81. 500.

escape from being killed yesterday af-

he either had to strike the woman
with his wheel or take his chances in a
collision with the wagon, and he gal

The woman is still locked up, but no

Vim. j. Bryan Gives His Views Of Certain
Facts That Are Current

st. Louis. Sept. 6.-The ST. Louis POST
Dispatch prints letter from William J.
Bryan, the first utterance after three
months OF travel and observation dur
ing the return of prosperity. Among
other things he says: When. has risen
because the foreign crop has been ex-
ceedingly short. Tns fact that
silver and wheat have parted company
will cause no dismay to those who un-
derstand that the law of supply and de-
mand regulates the price Of both.
Nothing can better disclose the
weakness of the Republican Position
than the joy manifested. by the HepuSli-
cans over events for viii IN their admin
istration and their politics are in no
wise responsible.
If the Republicans desire to claim
credit for the high price of wheat they
must assume the responsibility for the
famine in India. \ general rise
in price should be followed by rise in
wages" Bryan says that the joy over
the increase of money from wheat is
evidence that We have too little money:
that if the farmers are benefited by
the rise in one OF their products, how
universal; that the price of wheat VIII
fall when the foreign demand becomes
normal. and that the present spasmodic
rise will aid rather than injure the cause

Pittsburg, Sept. 6.-Expectations are
high in coal mining circles over theprob-
able resumption Of work in the mines
throughout the country. In anticipation
OF a settlement at Columbus next
wednesday another plan has been sug.
gested by representative Of one of the
largest operators which will be aeitated
Immediately after the men return to
work. 1t will be formulated and suh.
united to the joint convention of opera-
tors and miners which it Is proposed tn
hold next December. In order to come
to an understanding on all questions AT
issue separate wage scales are to be
formulated for each mine. The scale ia
to provide for therate to be paid for
the entire year. and any special conces-
sions that are to be made are to be
agreed upon by the miners and the on
orators and SO specified in the scale.
The scale is to be an adjunct to the
uniformity agreement which is expected
to be in force. The proposition will be
made by the operators in the hope Of
putting all the safeguards possible
against a probable strike. It is well
SAAAo"A tA0t luSIc are no CWO mines in
the entire district where the conditions
are exactly alike. The Uniformity agree
ment covers the general points. but even
with its existence some operators would
be subjected to difficulties, while other.
would have special advantages. The
scale is to cover all these points, the pri-
mary object being to avert differences.
