TEST CASE BEGINS.
To Decide ConstitutionaIity of Colo
rado Eight-hour Law.

Denver. Colo, June 29.-Arguments
on the constitutionality of the eight
hour law, which caused the tie-up now
existing at the trust smelters in this
state, We're begun today before the su-
preme court. Arguments against the
Jaw viii be made by the attorneys for
the trust, John NJ. Waldron. Charles w.
Waterman and Charles II. Toll. For
the people arguments will be presented
by Daniel Prescott, acting district at
tor: Assistant Attorney General Calvin

The management Of the smelters have
not made any attempt xZfififfffi Zfiffffh
not made any statement of their case TO
the state board of arbitration. which
attempted TO bring about . settlement
of the strike. They viii probably wait
for decision on the eight-hour law
before attempting To reach an UNDER
standing with the strikers.
The Bimetallic smelter at Leadville
was started up today with one furnace.
and one furnace has been blown in at
the Eilers smelter in Pueblo. about 100
men having accepted work at the wages

MUTE At MENTION OF DEWEY
HIS NAME FAILS TO STIR CON-
VENTIoN AT BUFFALO.
His Deeds and Those Performed at
Santiago Arouse No Enthusiasm
in Breasts of Delegates.

Buffalo, June 29.-The national, social
and political conference resumed its
session today to discuss non-partisan
efforts in political reform. The Rev,
II. W. Thomas of Chicago presided, and
discussed Expansion and Militarism.
Speaking of the war in the Philip
pines, he declared il the Saddest thing
in the history of the United States. As
militarism tends to despotism, he OPP
posed it, believing that industrialism
means democracy and the preservation
of the liberties of the people.
During DR.. Thomas remarks not a
syllable of applause greeted Admiral
Dewey'S name.
J. Ghent of New York took the oppo-
site side of the question, and declared
that popular sympathy was with the
government
When it is possible" said Mr.. Client,
for a man to mention the magnificent
victory of Dewey, without the loss of
a man or ship, and to speak of the
great victory at Santiago, where not a
ship was lost and only one life was
lost-when this is possible in this coun-
try without a single sign of applause,
l say to you that it simply illustrates
the impotence of the body before which
the remarks were made"

EFFORTS FOR MAJORS.
Boys Mother and a Friend Raising
Money.

Interest in the case of Majors. the
youthful convict, who is awaiting the
action of the state Judiciary. which he
hopes will give him a chance to prove
his innocence of the crime of which he
has been convicted, is not confined to
the ministers and women of Salt Lake
1t is true that the first action toward
saving the young mans life was taken
in Salt Lake. where he did not sup
pose he had any friends. But his in
valid mother in California is exerting
every effort to save her son. and he
has besides a very good friend in Miss
Johnson, a missionary worker of San
Francisco, who has gone to Missouri
and hopes to secure some assistance
for the boy from old friends of her and
him.
Miss Johnson became interested in
Majors when he was in prison in Cali
fornia, and has again come TO his as
sistance
His mother writes him under date of
June q, that she too is doing all she
can TO raise the necessary money to
conduct his case. She says:
1t makes me sad to think have not
been able to raise the money you re-
quested, but | have been promised some
in small amounts. Surely the LAWYER
Will not expect it all at once. l shall
DO all can you may rest assured, for
your life is more precious to me if pos
sible than to yourself. Do not be sur
prised to see me any time. for letters

want TO say. My friends encourage me

By Telephone to The Herald)

CBy Telephone to The Herald)
Logan. Utah, June 29.-Isaac Smith
of the stake presidency, created a SEN
sation today at the funeral services of
Mrs. Ida H. Quincy, by making a
thinly-veiled personal attack on Moses
Thatcher. Mr.. Thatcher was the third
speaker and made an address that was
very affecting. AS soon as he sat down
Mr.. Smith arose. After making clear
his reference TO Moses Thatcher, Mr..
Smith read the paragraph from the
Compendium relating to apOstacy That
was read so often during the days that
Mr.. Thatcher was under censure.
EX-Sheriff Turner. who was sitting
near the front of the tabernacle, arose
and left. He was followed by num-
Der of others.
The services were very well attended
There were many floral gifts also to
testify to the esteem in which Mrs.
Quincy was held. Bishop Lewis,
Bishop J. f. Wright of Hyrum, Moses
Thatcher and Isaac Smith We're the
speakers. \ quartette. consisting of
Misses Bessie Morehead and Connie
Thatcher and Messrs. Frank Bauch and
G. W. Thatcher. jr.. supplied the music.

TALKS FOR GREAT BRITAIN.
Sir Richard Webster's Speech Before
Venezuelan Commission.

Paris, June 29.-The Venezuelan ar
bitration commission was again in ses-
sion today and the leading counsel for
Great Britain. Sir Richard Webster,
the British attorney general. contin-
ued his presentation of his side of the
case.
Directing to certain abstracts of
documents introduced by Venezuela
Sir Richard Webster demanded that
the entire documents should be pre-
Eented TO the court to determine if any
reliance should be placed upon the por-
tionS submitted
Mr.. Benjamin Harrison. on behalf of
Venezuela. demurred to this contention.
on the ground that the time for filing
documents had passed.
Baron Russell of killOwen. one OF the
arbitratOrs, remarked that the tribunal
could scarcely rely upon half a docu-
ment when it was asserted that the
whole bore a different meaning. It was
finally decided that copies of the dOcu-
ments should first be submitted TO the
counsel for Venezuela.
Mr.. Harrison intimated that he had
thought arguments would be heard be-
fore this opportunity was afforded.
The commission subsequently ad-
journed to Wednesday.

Washington. June 29.-The first vol
unteers to be raised for service in the
Philippines Will be those for the skele-
ton regiments now being formed by
General Otis. 1t is not believed there
Will be the least difficulty in obtaining
these men
1t is probable that some time will
elapse before the troops of the provis-
iOnal army are sent to Manila, but
meanwhile they viii be drilled and
taught craftsmanship in camp. 1t is
estimated that three months are re-
quired to make soldiers of recruits. The
officers of the war department think
that a number of volunteers now COM
ing home will desire to return TO the
Philippines for short service after
they had an opportunity TO see home
and friends. They are regarded as the
most desirable for the regiments be-
ing organized by General Otis.
1t Is learned at the war department
that there is no rush TO get the volun-
teers to General Otis at the present
time. The rainy season having set in,
it is not believed these troops viii be
needed for service. except to relieve
those who have been on active duty.
The transport service is said TO be
sufficient. though ships may be char
tered temporarily. if needed The an
nOuncement that a portion of the pro-
visiOnal army was TO be raised has
caused swarm of politicians to be
sent TO the war department by those
who are seeking commissions in the
new regiments.
There are two regular transports now
at San Francisco. the Pennsylvania
and City OF Para. one sailing June 50
and the other July i. carrying fifty
five officers and 2.300 men. The Zea-
landia. Sheridan and Valencia, with
ffty-six officers and ISIS men. are now
on their way To Manila. and. are expect
ed To arrive between July 20 and 26.
There are now on their way from
Manila the Ohio. Newport and Indiana,
carrying 123 officers and 2.204 men.
They are expected to arrive between
July l. and Is. At Manila there are
the Hancock. Sherman. Senator Nor
gan City. Warren and Grant. capable
of carrying 27S officers and 6.456 men.
1t is expected these ships will bring
back the state volunteers as soon as
General Otis decides to send them

KILLED A HoRSETHIEF.
Resisted Arrest and Fired on
Sheriff's Posse.

Republic, Wash, June 29.-Several
horses having been stolen from this
vicinity recently and suspicion having
rested upon Charles Mcdonald and
Frank Draper, warrants were issued
for their arrest.
They were reported to be near Cur
lew lake with the horses. Deputy
Sheriff Griswold and Special Deputies
Goothfrider and Jackson started after
them. They were found, and Draper
was captured and brought to town and
is now in Jail.
Mcdonald escaped and was finally
overtaken at the mouth of Teredo
creek, about twenty miles distant. He
was dismounted and concealed in the
brush. Upon being discovered, Girls
void ordered him to throw up his
hands, but instead of doing so he drew
his revolver and began shooting at the
posse. at the same time mounting his
horse and starting off. Griswold then

who endeavored to explain the action
taken by the police yesterday, and the
socialists persistently interrupted and
inSHlted the premier, reproaching him
with being responsible for yesterdays
conflicts between the people and the
police.
Later it was announced that King
Leopold had long conference with
Van Der Pereboom, Bergerem and
Bernaert. The latter has been sum-
moned from The Hague. 1t was report
ed that NJ. Van Der Pereboom would
resign.
Although a vote censuring the gov
ernment was rejected by 81 to 81, the
tumult in the chamber was so great
that the president suspended the sit
ting. The socialists then led cheering
crowd, shouting 'Vive la republique,'' to
the park, where a conflict with gen
d'armes occurred. Thence the mob pro-
ceeded to the public square, the shops
closing as the rioters appeared.
When the chamber reassenbled to-
night. NJ. Desire, socialist, called at
tention to the riots which had occurred
since the adjournment. in which he
was struck by gen d'arme's sword,
and demanded the guards punishment.
Thereupon the chamber at once re-
turned to state of tumult. The so
cialists, surrounding NJ. Van Der Pere-
boom with clenched fists, denounced
him. AS the tumult increased the
chamber rose.
In the meantime the streets were
filled by shouting mob. which event
ually gathered in front of the war min
istry. where gen d'armes with drawn
swords attempted to disperse the riot
ers.
At the conclusion of a great meeting
in the town hall this evening. thou
sands attempted to cross the Grande
Place. in which the town hall stands.
The gen d'armes charged with drawn
swords and the crowd retaliated with
stones. Shots were fired on both
sides. Three persons were wounded,
and police officer was severely
stabbed with a shoemaker's knife.
The rioters, on being dispersed, as
sembled at another point A large
crowd gathered in the Rue Royale.

these as missiles. Finally, the civic
guard was ordered out to relieve the
police.
Despite these attempts to suppress
the disturbances. rioting continued to
a late hour, many persons being in
jured. y tramway conductor received
two bullet wounds.
Ultimately. the troops were called
and thirty-five arrests We're made,
many of those taken into custody being
in possession of revolvers. The public

PROMOTERS ARE NOW SAN
GUINE OF SUCCESS.
Certain Salt Lake People" Must be
Kept in the Dark-May Reach an
Agreement Today.
fSnecial tn The Heraihl

New York. June 29.-The promoters
of the consolidation of the various light
and power companies of Salt Lake City
and Ogden, who are now carrying on
their negotiations in this city, seemed
more sanguine tonight of the success
of their negotiations than for several
days past. Another conference was
held this afternoon at the office of Law
yer Cromwell. No. 40 Wall street, and
at its conclusion none of those present
would talk for publication, but it was
evident from what was said that an
agreement seems nearer at hand than
it has for several days.
One of those present at today's meet
ing. when asked by the correspondent
of The Herald as to what had been
done. said that he was not prepared to
talk for publication and added that
there were good reasons for keeping
certain people of Salt Lake from know
ing what was going on"
lie Grand Young, when seen at his
hotel late tonight. said that he had
nothing to say, but that he might have
an announcement to make tomorrow
evening.

THEY BUILD FoRTIFIcAT1oNs.
Young Filipinos Declare That They
Will Never Surrender.

Victoria. B. c.. June 29.-Adviees from
Hakodate state that Captain Sakichi of
the steamer Hokoku Maru. just re-
turned from the Philippines. reports
that in the southern islands the young
Filipinos are constructing fOrtifcations
against emergencies. Every port is
garrisoned by a thousand or so vOlun-
teers. whose weapons, however. are
very crude. only about 20 per cent be-
ing armed with rifles (Remingtons).
They are. however. full of patriotism,
and state that they will not yield to
the Americans though the whole of
the islands are destroyed.
The HOkoku Maru was warmly well
coined by the FilpinOs. who consider
the Japanese TO be of a kindred race.
and hoped for assistance from them
The FilipinOs were prepared TO pay
for arms and ammunition. and said
that Japanese vessels visiting the
islands could take return cargOes OF
hemp. Captain Sakichi says that he
only sold the insurgents two revOlvers
and the cooks knives.

WRONG NAME WAS GIVEN.
Why Chicago Murder Case Was
Brought to a Stop.

Chicago, June 29.-The trial of August
Becker. the south side butcher. charged
with having murdered and then dis
membered and burned the remains CT
his wife in order to leave himself free
to marry Ida Sutterlin, a 17-year-
girl with whom he had become infat-
uated, came to a sudden end today.
when it was found that the indictment
named Mrs. Becker as Elizabeth, when
it should have been Therese. The court
at once nolle pressed the Indictment
The jury had been sworn in, and the
defense asked for a discharge of the
prisoner, on the ground that Becker
had once been placed in jeopardy, and,
therefore, he could not be tried again.
The court denied the request. however.
and a bench warrant was issued, and
Becker re-arrested.
The grand jury voted another indict-
ment against Becker. The jurors chosen
to try Becker We're kept together. and
when the case is again called for trial
tomorrow. nearly all of them will be re-
tained
The case is now in such shape that
the prisoners counsel are confident of
a reversal by the supreme court if sa
verdict of guilty is returned.
