GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP.
Mr.. Allen. Of Nebraska then spoke IN
suport Of the Harris resolution. Mr.. Al
len was involved I'm frequent controver-
sizes with Mr. Gear. In the course Of his
remarks he urged government ownership
and oucration Of the Union Pacific road,
declaring it would reduce passenger ana
freight rates from 50 to 90 per cent.
Mr.. Gear insisted that government
ownership would increase passenger and
freight rates 4j per cent. Mr.. Gear as
serted that the managers Of the Populist
party had suppressed report on gov
eminent ownerships Of railroads after
finding from statistics that IL increased
rates.
Mr.. Butler. as chairman OF the Popu-
list National Committee. promptly denied
tho statement in toto.
Mr.. Tilman came m Il one point w.th
the statement that one-fifth OF he rail-
roads Of the country were IN the hands
Of courts. which was analogous to gov
eminent ownership.
why should not the President ami exc
cutlye authorities run railway as wen
as an irresponsible judge.

Trinidad, Colo, Aug. 28.-Two more
startling chapters are about to he
given to the public in the now notori-
ous Green-Kclly murder case.
Officers Eli Green and Wilson ELI
OFT are expected TO arrive In the city
In the morning having in custody the
twelfth man charged with the murder
Of Green and Kelly. The name Of the
prisoner is rot yet publicly known, but
his identity is expected to add to the
sensation already produced by the ar
rest OF eleven Of his companions. who
are now In jail here charged with sew.
cral atrociOus murders.
The officers have been out many
days In search Of their man. and to
night word was received OF their sue
cessful homecoming.
The only other man now sought by
the officers In connection with these
wholesale murders is old man Re-
veille. the acknowledged leader of the
gang. He is now supposed to be In
Old Mexico.
The second startling chapter COM
prises developments which go to show
that the gang. eleven members of
which are now in Jail. committed
murders by wholesale in carrying on
thelr thieving operations. In fact. 1t
is now believed that the gang planned
murder on the same scale as did the
Bender gang in Kansas in the early
lO's. and perhaps as extensively.
Three of their victims are now known.
ana the officers have long list of
missing men who are now believed to
have fallen victims OF the San Isidro
gang.
The officers expect to be able to
prove before they have done with the
case that Daniel Young. a wealthy and
prominent cattleman of Colfax county.
New Mexico, who was shot and killed
while riding over his range near Fol-
som some time prior to the murder of
the two Trinidad. officers. was muir
dered by this same band of OUTLAY We.
He had suffered heavy losses from cat
tie thieves. and was trying to detect
the culprits when he was killed.

The production of aluminium In the
United States during the year 1896 was
1900. 900 pounds, a. against s00. 900
pounds in 1895, showing 4 gain of 400.-
900 pounds. or A per cent. As has been
the case for several years past the en-
tire domestic output came from single
producer. the Pittsburg Reduction
Company. the plant of which at Nj
asara Falls has been enlarged and has
been working at nearly full capacity.
II is interesting to note in this connec-
ton that the United States has up to
the present time produced more than
one-third Of all the aluminium manu-
factured in the world. The principal
European producer is the Aluminium
Industrie Gesellschaft, with works at
Neuhausen, Switzerland and control
ling the Societe Electro oMetalurgique
de France. with works at Frogss. in

ly exercised their inaliennble and con-
stltutiOnal rights In gathering for their
own protection and In attempting by
fair and open argument to gain living
wages. ''1'he interference of the courts
has become too common" he said
