Citizens Committees Statement Regard
Ing the Colorado smeiter Trouble
DENVER, June 19.-If the unanimous
opinion of the citizens committee, which
includes ext Governor Adams and Presi-
dent Jeffrey of the Rio Grande railway,
is a criterion, it is only a matter OF o
few days until the large smelters III this
city and Pueblo, now closed on account
of wage differences, will be in opera
ton. The committee was in session the
greater part of yesterday, and when IL
adjourned, issued the following state
ment to the public:
"The committee has, according to It's
best Judgment, furthered the opening
of negotiations between the smelter
managers and their men with a view to
an early resumption of work, and the
committee believes that progress has
been made which in a few days may
eliminate in the %reopening OF b
smelters in Denver and Pueblo. 1t IS
learned that the president of the smelt-
ing and refining company will probably
arrive in Denver next week, when a
mutually satisfactory scale of wages
may be agreed upon between the man
ayers and the men,"

KILLED FOR HIS MONEY.
Wealthy Nebraska Farmer Found Deat

Wealthy Nebraska Farmer Found Dead
In His Home Near Julian.
JULIAN, Neb., June 20.-Julian Ba-
huak, a well known and wealthy farm
or ~recluse, was murdered at his home
near here, the body being found last
night. The crime was probably COM
mitted Friday and the motive vas
doubtless robbery, as Bahuak was
known to have large sums concealed
about his home. The coroner's inquest
developed nothing.
To all appearances both hands and
one foot had been burned, probably to
force the victim to tell where his money
was hidden. The house had been an
sacked, but no II CAL have any idea as
to the amount of money, if any, secured.
1t was generally believed thai the
old man had large sums of
money hidden about the place, though
the story was d~iscredited by those who
knew him best. He was the owner of
almost 600 acres of land, from which he
received good rent, besides a number of
| good buildings in Julian.

sist of 10000 men armed with Mauser
rifles, in addition to 46 quick-firing guns
and 1000 a%rtillerymen, most Of them
drawn from the German and Dutch
armies. With these troops and help ex-
pected from the Orange Free State, Jou-
bert expects to take the offensive imme-
diately after the declaration of war, en-.
ter the Orange Free State and march on
Kimberley, the British diamond mining
center in West Griqualand. Joubert
expects to capture the town with slight
loss and blow up the De Beers diamond
mine. simultaneously, 1t is added, the
railroad from Capetown to Bulawayo
will be destroyed by Boer sympathizers
and agents in Cape Colony, who will de-
stroy the Port Elizabeth Pretoria line
south of Bloemfontein, to prevent Brit
ish troops from using it.
Finally, Immediately after Kimberley
is captured, General Joubert will ad.
vance on Capetown, the capital of Cape
Colony, through the western provinces,
where the Dutch predominant and are
expected to join the Beers. Joubert
calculates that he will be master of
Capetown a fortnight after the declara.
ton of war and that he will then be
able to dictate terms of peace.

CAPTURE THREE SUSPECTS
Supposed Train Robber Brought In by

faI ~ '"' hf'''' ~ ~ -
Posse.
SALT LAKE, June 20.-A special from
Fort Yellowstone says: Scout Morrison
and three soldiers from troop Il of this
place, together with the posse that went
from Gardiner on Sunday, brought in
the three men suspected of the Union
Pacific train robbery, who were cap.
tured last Sunday at Riverside. These
men give their names as Phillips, Rob-
erts and Martin. The mar Roberts an
swers fairly well the description of the
man who killed Sheriff Hazen and who
is thought to be the notorious Montana
Kid, with IL lives to account for. Very
little resistance was made to
the capture, but n vigorous watch
was necessary to prevent escape. A
significant fact is that after the first
approach Of the scouts the suspects held
no conversation with each other and it
was obvious that this was preconcerted
plan. Besides the saddle horses, the
men had two pack horses and their
equipment was evidently bought Mt the
same time and place. The man Phillips
gives the story for the three men and
claims that they are ranchmen from
Harrison, Mon, but can give no salts
factory reason for being found in the
Yellowstone park.
