Chicago, June 23.-GeneraI Russell A.

here today that he is in the Michigan
senatorial fight with antitrust and

The people on his banners.
The general is at present taking life

Michigan and Wisconsin. He gave his
platform on the heels of the announce
ment by Governor Pingree.
"Other issues of greater Importance
may arise, but. however that may be.
it is certain that the widespread spirit
of consolidation of financial interests
is an evil which must be contended

great amalgamations. and believe in
the election of senator's by a direct
vote of the people, and, as Governor
Pingree states, on those planks L VIII

"The concentration of wealth in
trusts is detrimental TO the interests of

FIGHTING LEGAL POINTS.
State Victorious In Every Instance
at Wallace.

Wallace, Ida, June 2S.-Attorneys
spent three hours this afternoon argu-
ing motions offered by the defense to
set aside and to quash the indictments.
The defense disputed the right of Act
ing Sheriff France to summon a grand
jury, as being disqualified on account
of his connection with the Bunker Hill
company, prejudice against the prison
ers at the bar and also that under the
Idaho statutes grand jury could only
be drawn from the regular jury panel,
the amendments passed by the last leg
islature making that the only legal
method of drawing grand juries.
The court held that the amendment
only applied to the method of drawing
juries from the panel. and not to the
method of summoning by special venire
The state argued that when the grand
jury was called defendants were in
court. Reddy announced that he was
their counsel. but declined to challenge
either the panel or individual jurors.
and that by such neglect they lost all
right to challenge the latter. There
was a victory for the state in every
point decided today.

them, the engineer blowing his whistle
to give them warning. No sooner had
the passenger train passed than
freight train heavily loaded came thun-
dering down the canyon. Mr.. Pack
succeeded in controlling his team while
this train passed. and then, thinking
that there were no more trains, he re-
laxed his vigilance and started up
dugway which cuts into the mountain
side. about thirty feet above the rail-
road tracks. When he had got about
half way along the dugway another
freight train. with long string OF
loaded cars, thundered around curve
without warning, just in front of his
team.
The frightened animals this time be-
came altogether unmanageable, and by
their rearing and plunging they COM
pletely overturned the carriage on the
very brink of the embankment, fasten-
ing the occupants, except MIR. Pack,
under the vehicle. 1t was a thrilling
moment. Mr.. Pack expected to see the
carriage, horses, occupants and all roll
over the edge of the bank, down onto
the track. thirty feet below, where they
would have been ground under the
wheels of the approaching train.
By an almost superhuman effort Mr..
Pack succeeded in keeping hold of the
reins and by eXerting his utmost
strength and presence of mind he
guided the maddened animals to the
side hill away from the edge of the
bank Mrs. Pack and the children were
dragged a few rods under the carriage,
but as soon as the carriage top was
demolished she and the two girls were
left in the road. Mr.. Pack pluckily held
on to the reins and was dragged about
a block, part of the time being under
the carriage.
When the horses finally stopped, Mr..
Pack found that he had sustained no
other injury than badly bruised body
and leg He hobbled back to where his
wife was lying in the road and found
that she was fearfully bruised. and
that her arm was badly crushed, the
bones being broken and protruding
through the flesh at the wrist. An
ugly cash had been cut over her right
eye. The girls had escaped with some
severe bruises and bad shaking up.
The trainmen saw the accident and
stopped the train. They backed up to
where Mrs. Pack was and lifted her
into the caboose and brought her to
this city.
She was taken to the home of Will
liam II. White, 624 South Fifth East,
where DR.. Seymour B. Young attend
ed to her injuries.
When seen yesterday afternoon. Mr..
Pack pointed to what was left of the
carriage, and said that he was very
thankful that they had escaped with
their lives, which he considers a mir
acle, under the circumstances.
Mr. Pack is a carpenter and millman
at Kamas, and his wife, Mrs. c. Y.
Pack is a very well known lady of
Summit county, being stake president
of the Y. l.. NJ. /. A. associations.

today to the effect that he had COM
bined with Secretary Alger in the in
terests of Alger's senatorial candidacy.
General Alger will not withdraw
under any circumstances, nor will he
spend any money in the campaign.
The platform of their campaign will
include opposition to trusts and
declation in favor of senatorial cleo
tions by a popular vote. The alliance
was made at a conference held last
night at which several of the Pingree
state leaders and the general and the
governor were present. Said the gov
ernor:
Il have avoided committing myself
heretofore, because 1 wanted opportun-
ity to talk with the general first But
all along General Alger has been my
personal choice for senator. l wired
him at BetOskey asking him If l could
see him in Detroit on his wav back to
Washington. In reply he arranged to
meet me last evening
"Of course 1 can't speak for my
friends, but those l have talked with
are Alger men beyond all question.
They cannot support Senator Mcmillan
They certainly cannot be clasSed as

tory in a day nor can they live with the
representatives of 'judiciouS combina-
tiOns' and unequal taxation and pre-
tend at the same time to be friends of
equal and just taxation and foes to
trusts.
AT our meeting last night General
Alger told us frankly the history of his
relations with Senator Mcmillan in the
matter of the senatorship. He has
dealt with General Alger the same as
he has treated every one who questions
his ownership of the Republican party.
General Alger is in the race and to
stay to the end said the governor.

English you can write, L am with him
heartily and 1 propose to do all L
personally and with my friends can to
aid his candidacy. AS General Alger
put it to me, he will be a candidate If
he has assurances of no more than one
vote in the legislature. 1 said to Alger
that l could not personally support
man who would not declare himself on
the right side of two of the greatest
questions of the day-thoSe of trusts
and election of United States senators
by direct vote of the people. | wish to
say that the general is absolutely
sound on both these questions"

which robbed a Kansas City, Fort Scott
& Memphis express train at Macomb, Mo-,

Kennedy had previously been convicted.
Jennings, or Glenn. is the man whom the
detectives believed to be Bill Ryan of the
old James gang, but in this they prove
TO have been in error. The convict is a
hardened criminal. and has served terms
IN the penitentiaries at Salem, Ore; Still
water. Mimi, and in Nebraska, in zach
case Tor violent crimes.
While in Jail in Kansas City, charged
with highway robbery, the Old criminal
made the acquaintance of Jack Kennedy,

kennedy that he became identified with
the >'Cracker-neck'' band of train rob-
bers.
Before his case was given to the jury to-
day, Jennings created a scene in the court
room. He declared that his attorneys had
proved unfaithful, and that they were
willing to see him railroaded to the peni-
tentiary. He demanded new lawyers and
re-trial, but Judge Cox refused to heed
his demands.

Follows Deal Made By Bert Sea-
boldt of Salt Lake.
fspecial to The Heraid.l

Denver, Colo, June 23.-Following
close upon the Utah placer deal which
Bert Seaboldt of Salt Lake City came
to Denver to conSummate, comes the
announcement of another similar deal
involving placer property in the San
Juan district of Utah, a Denver syndi-
cate being the purchaser
The second deal was put through by
John Worries, and the consideration is
said to be $250,000 The transfer in
cludes 800 acres of placer ground on
the San Juan river in the vicinity of the
district which went through such a
boom a few years ago. The seller of
the property is an Arizona man. but
Mr.. Worries refused to give his name or
reveal those of the purchasers.
1t is said to be the intention of the
company to purchase the best possible
machinery and this will be put TO work
as soon as it can be set up.
The placer property involved in Mr.
Seaboldt's deal is about 1000 acres near
the junction of the San Juan and Colo
RADIO rivers. Mr.. Seaboldt refused to
talk about the matter tonight for the
reason. as he said, that the transfer
was yet incomplete. There are said to
be several other parcels of placer
ground in the same district which are
claiming the attention of investors.
