Superintendent Calvin Says That Business ls
improving.
Superintendent Calvin, who accom-
panied the injured in the Glenns Ferry
wreck to Boise, was asked by a rep
representative Of the Stashsman if he
could confirm the reported change of
time on the Short Line, which rumor
says viii go into effect on the 18th of
this month. The superintendent re-
piled that he could not Nothing he
said, had been decided upon with ref
erence to change, although the mat
ter had been discussed.
The superintendent, in reply to a
question as to the condition of bust
ness on the Short Line, made the in
teresting statement that it was better
than it had been during any time in
the past six years. As an illustration
he said that Tuesday last the road
hauled 2O7 more carloads than it did
the corresP bonding day last year.
Superintendent Calvin is somewhat
uneasy over the reported advance Of a
band of bummers numbering thous-
ands and said to have been recruited
in Kansas from all over the east and
southeast. They are said to swarm
in Kansas like criekets, and the state
being cursed by about 1900 of
them at this time. The blan is to di-

THE Record is human, very human.
Two weeks ago it was tickled nearly to
death over finding an absurd typo
graphical error in THE TRIBUNE, and
felt called upon to depart from its
usual gravity and give its readers a
diversion by treating them to a bit Of
scintillating wit ut our expenses. Last
week we selected atrandom a few gems
in English compositions from the
comic edition Of the Record, and now
it is up to its ears in the doldrums, and
can't sparkle or efferyesce any more
than keg of sour dough.

Western Rep bosn Senators lndignant-vvill
Not Leave the Party,
A special to the Salt Lake Tribune
from Washington says: The arrival of
Western mail brings the intelligence
that certain papers in that section of
the country have reprinted with sensa-
tional head lines a special from Wash
ington to an equally sensational New
York paper stating that Senators
Shoup, Carter and Clark were about
to leave the Republican party because
of dissatisfaction with the wool sched-
ule of the present tariff bill. The story
originated in the mind of space
writer in this city, who has later adj
mitted that he had no authority for the
statement except his own imagination,
and that it was suggested to him by
seeing the Senators mentioned at din
ner with one or two of the Republicans
who left the st. Louis convention.
Senator Carter was equally positive
"While there are portions of the wool
schedule that are not quite satisfactory
to the West" he said, "they are not
enough so to cause even a rumor that
would vote against the tbs bill.
We will try in conference to secure
needed amendments, The story that
I would bolt the party on account of
the schedule is absurd.
Senator Shoup and Carter, when seen
today, pronounced the story unquali-
fedly false and without the slightest
foundation in fact. Senator Shoup
said: 1.-The story is hardly worth a
denial; it is fabrication from begin
ming to end. While it is true that the
wool schedule as amended by the Sen
ate is not entirely satisfactory to the
woo!-growers' interests, yet it is nearly
so, We will try to cure its few de
fects in the conference committee, but
if the bill should pass as it is now it
viii be good bill for the Western in
dustries, During this tariff discussion
l have been doing all l could for the
wool and other industries of our sec
ton, and shall continue to do so until
the bill has been agreed upon by both
houses of Congress. 1 shall vote for it,
after having done all in my power to
secure an equal protection for Western
industries.
Senator Clark could not be found,
but Senator Warren, his colleague, in
speaking for him, echoed the state
ments of Senators Shoup and Carter.
THE schedule" said Senator Warren,
is the best that has ever been offered
to the wool interests, and is satisfac
tory, with the exceptions of clauses
one and two, on which we hope to
secure the adoption Of the Dingley
rates"

The New York Sun which is one OF
the most conservative and withal most
reliable newspapers published in this

issue of June tho 19th, printed as its

A Negro Brakeman Fell and Sustained
Numerous Painful InjuIies--One
Leg Is Badly Crushed.

Yesterday morning at o'clock Tom
Walls. a negro brakeman on the Louis
vile and Nashville railroad, met with
a serious accident about eight miles
above this city.
Walls was on the pilot ready to jump
off and throw g. switch for his train to
take the Hughes siding for the pas
senger train to pass. AS he attempted
tc jump off his foot slipped ON the pilot
bars and he fell heavily to one side.
He was brought to this city and taken
to his home, 219 South Twentieth street

Upon examination 1t was found that his
left leg was badly sprained and mashed
in the ankle and instep, his right hand
sprained and arm bruised. He seems to
have sustained internal injuries around
the breast. 1t is probable that his left
leg is broken.

CANADA WANTS SEAL STEAL
lNGS AND GREAT BRITAIN
CONSENTS.
Will Not Join The Seal Convention
IF Russia And Japan Are Pres
ent-UEitei States Will Meet
Great Britain First, Russia
And Japan Next.

New York, Oct. IA dispatch to the
Herald from Washington says:
The administration proposes to make
clear to Great Britain the embarras-
ments she has caused this government
by her refusal to participate with Rus
STA and Japan in the proposed sealing
conference.
A note is now in course of prepara-
ton at the State department which viii;
deprecate the withdrawal of the
British government at such late hour
and call attention to the fact that the
communication of May 10, which Sec
Iretary Sherman addressed to Lord Sal
isbury announced that Russia and JAP
an would be invited to take part in the
conference. The British government
had therefore no reasonable ground at
this time for refusing to participate
when she had already accepted an in
vitation to take part, knowing that
Russia and Japan would be represented
in the conference.
1t is also understood that the admin
istration will yield to the inevitable and
ask Great Britain to send representa-
tives to meet those of the United
States. There is no intention to aban-
don the proposed conference with the
representatives. of Russia and Japan
These gentlemen will reach the United
States in few days. The latter con-
ference will be held, it is thought, at
ter representatives of United Sta-es
and Great Britain have had a meeting
and reached conclusion and the DEL
egates of Russia and Japan will tnen
be asked to ratify the action of the An
glo-American conference.
The determination to send the note
above referred to followed the receipt
of an official announcement of embas-
ador Hay, to the effect that Great
Britain had refused to take part in the
conference in view of the representa-
ton therein which Russia and Japan
would have.
The reason of Great Britain's with
drawal is traced to Canada's interest
in the sealing industry and the fear
of the authorities that the Unitel
States, Russia and Japan being in the
majority, would outvote her represen-
tatives on all important matters.

The Fight began at s o'clock in the
morning and continued all day The
official report published here states that
Notina attacked the rebels and drove
them out with great loss. The reports
state that Gen Nonilina had his horse
shot under him.
The Herald's correspondent at Mat
anzas has obtained an account of the
fight from a Spanish official who was
present. From this it appears that the
rebel infantry were strongly entrenched
in an almost inaccessible position in the
hills and all effort to dislodge them
were futile, resulting only in heavy
losses for the attacking forces. The
insurgents had only a few men killed
and jeered and tainted the Spanish
during the whole engagement. General
Notina narrowly escaped death.
Enraged at this failure he returned
to the attack next day, but with no bet
ter success. A large number Of wound
ed and dying soldiers were brought in
to MatanZas.
Gen. Jiminez Castellano left Puerto
Principe on September %, with heavy
forces for the purpose of attacking
