railway, u the stock of the corporation
will be held in President Hills interests.
The number of men at work on the sur
veys is steadily and rapidly being in
creased. In addition to the party now
working at He'll Gate, on the Columbia, a
surveying party is working south from
Republic.
The dispatch from Cascade printed be-
low was shown to a Great Northern OIL
Ger yesterday. He said it was probably
true, but he declared the statement that
the Northern Pacific was at all interested
in the new line was u~nfounded. There
is not a word of truth in that he said.
Mr.. Hill wants no joint ownership or
joint operation. In this connection you
would be safe in saying it is not certain
Wilbur to the Great Northern main line.
Mr.. Hill regards the Washington Cen
trail, a Northern Pacific branch, as a
rival, and may conclude to parallel it into
Spokane, thus avoiding having to cross
the tracks of the Washington Central
while cutting into that roads business.
The necessity hat compels Mr.. Hill to
build up the San Poll is becoming more
and more apparent. At present Mr.. Hill
has a close grasp on the business OF the
mineral country to the north of Spokane.
If anyone else should build into Ft,public
he would lose that grasp. His ownership
of the charter up the valley of the San
Poll, the only charter so far granted,
gives him no protection under the recent
act of congress, a synopsis of which was
printed in The Spokesman-Review last
week. Some one else ma obtain a char
ter and the terms of the act are u that
a charter may not be held for speculative
PURPOSES.

Great Northern Has Met the
Northern Pacific Rate.
RELATIONS ARE STRAINED
Western Passenger Association Will
Probably Take a Hand in
the Fight,

There is no change in the railroad stu
alton of yesterday, save that the Great
Northern has met the cut of the Northern
Pacific and will sell second-class tickets
from St. Paul., west-bound, for one-half
the lowest first-class rate, exactly the
sam as the rate made by the Northern
Pacific. The local office was advised by
wire to this effect late last night, and at
a late hour yesterday afternoon nothing
further concerning the threatened war
had been received at any of the local
railroad offices.
The railroad men of Butte are agreed
that relations are so strained and the sit
alton so acute that it will require some
smooth, brainy work to avert a war that
will cut the rate to bedrock prices.
General Agent Wilson Of the Short Line
expects something will develop at today's
meeting of the Western Passenger asso-
citation, in session in Chicago. Mr.. Will
lines will certainly be met by the roads
comprising the association, Of which the
Short Line and Union Pacific are men,
bers. Mr.. Wilson is of the opinion that
the association will not be able to ad-
just the difficulty, and a season Of slash
ing will follow.
What the Butte people are regretting is
that the cut, as it now stands, is of no
particular significance to them, as it only
applies to those coming west from east
ern terminals. However, if the sheathed
knives are draw n the situation, in the
course of a. few days, may be changed
materially.

Inactivity characterized the copper
mining share market today. Spectators
are in all probability awaiting a further
advance of the copper market before
plunging, and the recent slight decline
in copper has made the more timid anx-
ious to unload. In New York last week
5000 shares Of Anaconda changed hands.
Boston & Montana today opened at
$365, advanced to $36S, but declined to 1850
at the close of business on the exchange.
Butte & Boston spurtcd from $SS to SOL

$S91a.

point gain to SAG and closed at $45R.
Utah Con developed a little weakness,
opening at SAP, rising to S421a. but de-
Ginning to Sal at the close of business.

MURDER OR MANSLAUGHTER.
Is Not Policeman Guilty of One of
These When He Kills?

To the Editor of the Globe:
From whence does a police officer &C.
quire the right to kill people? A few days
ago a man was killed by an officer in
West st. Paul. The man was killed be-
cause he chose to run away when the off,
Ger tried to arrest him.
Monday an officer killed an eighteen
year-old boy in Minneapolis because he
would not halt when told to do so.
Neither the man nor the boy was commit
ting any crime at the time he was shot
They were only suspected Of having COM
mitted a crime at some previous tine, and
it was not known whether the crime was
a felony or merely a misdemeanor.
How is it that these officers are not
guilty of murder or manslaughter, and
that they are not both in Jail, pending
indictment by the grand jury?
AS l understand the law, an officer has
no more right to kill people than an or
binary citizen has The law, l believe,
allows an officer Cor any one else, for that
matter) to kill man if necessary to pre-
vent the commission Of felony, but it
does not allow the killing Of the man aft
er the felony has been committed, and
while the man is merely attempting to
escape; or where no felony al all has
been committed, but only nisdemeanor
If this is SO, an officer or citizen has
the right to kill a man only when caught
red handed in the actual commission of a
felony, or where the killing is necessary
to prevent the commission of the felony.
man, for instance, may be guilty of
murder, arson, rape, burglary or any
other felony; and yet an officer is not JUS
tilted in killing him where the officer
comes on the scene after the crime has
been committed He is not justified in
killing him after the commission Of the
crime, even though the man is running
away and the officer sees it would be
necessary to kill him to prevent his es-
cape He Is not justified in killing a man
who resists arrest, unless the officer has
good reason to believe that his own life
is in danger. II the offanse is not a fell
ony, but only misdemeanor he is not
justified in killing the man at all
Where the shooting results fatally, the
officer always makes the excuse that he
didn't intend to do it." THAT he didn't
shoot at the man at all, only in the air."
THAT 1t was an. accident; was not inten-
ticnal," etc, etc. This does not affect
the case in the least. The officer is gull
ty of murder or of manslaughter just the
same. He has no business using his re-
volver; and, if he does use 1t, he must be
presumed to contemplate the conse-
quences of his act. Officers are entirely
too handy with their firearms.
In the cases above cited it was not sup
posed that any felony had been commit
ted by the murdered man or the MUIR
ed boy; only, possibly, a petty INSIDE
meanor, and even this was not known
positively.
Why Is 1t that incidents of the kind
above mentioned are of such frequent
occurrence, and the officers are seldom Or
never punished? Why are they not pun
ished? Why are they not hung? They
are guilty of murder. They are guilty Of
manslaugther. e A. johnson.

AN ALLEGED sWINDLE.
Business Transacted In Chicago by
Shippey & SchuecI<


CHICAGO, Aug 31.-What Is believed
to be an extensive swindling scheme was
uncovered this afternoon by the arrest of
George e. Shippey and Henry Schueck,
who were charged with using the mails
TO defraud hundreds of business men
throughout the country. The men were
arraigned before United States Commits
sloner Humphrey, and held in 81, 900 bonds
each, pending the hearing of the case
Sept 9.
The two were arrested at 218 Fifth ave-
uue, the headquarters Of the Western
Importing & Exporting company, which
they are said to constitute.
According to the story told by Inspec-
tor Farrell the men, some time ago. or
gained the American Trading company.
with office at 215 Madison street. Direct
ly above the name of the concern was
printed the word Storage" which is said
to have led the patrons to believe that
the men were connected with legitimate
concern Hundreds of letters are said to
nave been mailed to firms throughout the
United States, asking for price lists and
samples. In some cases goods were paid
for, but 1t said this was only to mislead
firms, and when larger shipments were
made to the, Chicago men, no money was
forthcoming.
1t is said Franklin L. Smith, who was
arrested last week in New York, was an
accomplish Of Shippey and Schueck.
