STRIKE IS OVER
HIS is THE CLAIM MADE BY
THE SANTA FE MAN.
AGEMENT.
OF the Order of TeIegraphers
Dispute the Assertion-Threats of
the Strike Spreading to the Colo
rad and Southern-The Attitude
of the Trainmen.

Denver, Dec. l2.-The local head
quarters received this morning news
from Pueblo. Newton and Wichita,
where meetings of s~ympathizing train
men held last night.
The o. r. T. officials say the train
men voted to go out, subject to the rati-
fcation of their national body.
Meetings of the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen, which includes the
Brotherhood of LocomC .e Engineers,
Order OF railroad Conductors and
Switchmen, were held at Pueblo, New
ton n Wichita last night and consid-
cred the ACCESSIBILITY of going out with
the operators on a sympathetic strike"
said a prominent local o. r. T. man.
This means that the trainmen are
in sympathy with us and are aroused
to the seriousness of the situation.
1T is also significant of what may
develop into a general strike on the
Santa Fe system.
The Trainmen.
From our advices today from these
meetings We are assured that the
traiLinan on the system are with us
and will precipitate further troubles.
We are given to understand that the
vote taken by these various assemblies
was to walk out unless the Santa Fc
comes to terms and agrees to arbitrate
the differences with the o. r. T. There
are certain legal aspects which the Or
ders will have to comply with. under
the laws of their organizations, before
the strike can be ordered. One of
these is the sanction of the action by
the national body. These provisions
will be carried out within the next few
days and then will follow final action.
We are more confident of the sit
uation today than at any time since
the strike, and believe that, with the
aid Of the trainmen. we will win"
The Santa Fe people do not seem to
be worrying about this phase of the
situation. They say that the engin-
GERS, and conductors are Independent
orders. road and are satisfied to all ap-
pearances with conditions.
They further declared that these Or
ders are not affiliated with the o. R. T.,
and consequently the strike is none
Of their business.
The Santa Fe people further say and
reiterate that the strike has practical
ly petered out and will not be heard
OF two days hence.

fol an extension. not only on account
OF their W p%ropriety. but to meet the
views of the great majority of the
American people. Mrs. Harrison's
plan, he said, consists. in a word, of
building about the size of the present
house, one on the east side and one on
the west side of the White House
grounds, connected to the present man
sion by curved wings-the quadrangle
being completed by rebuilding the con
s~ervatories at the south end of the
grounds. Perhaps the most striking
advantage of this plan is that it quite
maintains the present openness to sun
and toward the south and southwest
a vital necessity, and preserves the
beautiful view to the south as unob-
structed as it is today. This plan
leaves the present mansion unchanged.
not an outer door or window of a room
is closed, the extensions beginning on
the p~rolongations of the main CORR
doris.
Architectural harmony has been pre-
served. Owing to the recession of the
extensions to the ear the present
building is not dwarfed. Careful but
not final estimates on the extensions
proposed. Colonel Bingham said
amount to s1,lO0. 900, including partial
furnishings.

WOOL MARKET STRONG.
There II Already n Shortage of Many
Million Pounds.

A few weeks ago several Boston wool
buyers visited this and other wool grow
ing states in the West. contracting for
the crop Of 1900 at an advance of several
cents over last years price.
Wool men not engaged in this trade
predict that next years price of wool
will be higher than ever before and that
premature sales will be at loss.
The Boston Wool Reporter, in speaking
of the situation. says:
THE total wool clip of the country is
placed at slightly less than 295OO0 900
pounds. against about 900 last year.
AT the beginning. Of the year the total
available supply Of the country was about
s4o,00o.ooo pounds. !mportations have been
ex eptionally small. those at Boston be-
ing only S4,S72,$41 pounds. against 4Os2s.-
o4S last year. The result is that owing to
the phenomenaly large demand for wool
for consumption. which has swept through
all the principal wool centers Of the
country. the total available stock on hand
at the close of the year has been reduced
to comparatively low point.
by far the greater portion OF the wool
this year is now at the seaboard mar
kets. A year ago the supply was pretty
evenly divided between the interior and
the seaboard."

ADJUSTMENTS.
"Hottest Coon in Dixie'' Mt Third
Avenue.

''The Hottest Coon in Dixie a musical
travesty by colored company. opened q
weeks engagement at the Third avenue
last night before house packed to the
doors. From beginning to end the audi
encc was kept in a roar of laughter by
the fun-making abilities Of the entire COM
pany. Every speciality possessed partic-
ular merit OF Its own and met with I'M
qualified approval from the audience.
There is supposed to be plot in the
travesty, but It is certainly not compli-
Gated. The principal figure in the play Is
an elderly negro. who becomes suddenly
possessed of great wealth. Many are
the schemes laid by designing confidence
men to get 1t away from him. Most of
the schemes succeed.
In the specialties, Bob A. Kelly, who
plays the part of a colored tramp. Is de-
serving of special mention. His ready
wit, and particularly his assumed horror
OF doing second term in the peniten-
tiary, was perfection.
Miss Neale G. Hawkins, the leading
lady of the company, has a wonderfully
sweet voice, and her singing Of the
cuckoo song" "Suwanee River" and
Comm Thro' the Rye was. excellent.
w. H. Proctor, who assumes the part of
a rich and patriarchial negro. is a clever
comedian.
Several dancing specialties add to the
enjoyment of the production. 1.-The Hot
test Coon in Dixie" will be repeated ev-
cry night this week. :.

The farewell sermon Of Rev. J. N.
Smith. pastor Of the First Christian
Church Of this city, was preached yes
terday Mr.. Smith will go at once to
Whatcom to begin work in his new field.
A large and attentive congregation was
present at the last services held by the
popular minister Mr.. Smith took as his
text Acts xx.:26, ~: Wherefore take
you to record this day that l am free from
the blood of all men; for have not shun-
ned to declare unto you the whole counsel
of God" He said in part:
1.-THE closing of the work of a pastor
after years of association and labor with
a church Is an occasion of sadness. Ties
workers who have stood with him in the
storm and sunshine must be severed, to
be renewed no more in this life. Memory
rises up to review the scenes and events
Of the past years during which they have
labored together. 1t reminds us OF duties
neglected, of privileges enjoyed, Of disap-
passed through rih and Of the happy out.
come of united effort In the Lords name.
Such is the occasion which has called us
together tonight.
AFTER four years and ten months of
labor as pastor Of this church, sever my
relation with it to go out to a new field of
Weakness and in fear s The proSem
which was called upon to solve was
most complex and difficult one The work
patience, and the disposition and ability
to endure hardness as a good soldier of
Jesus Christ How well or how poorly I
have done my work, time will determine.
While 1t has not been satisfactory to
myself, as well, probably, as to many
others, there is one thing of which I am
conscious, and that Is, have done the
best could do. 1t is. perhaps, too much
for any one to say as Paul said L am free
from the blood Of all men,. That means
that no duty has been neglected. Who of
us can say this much?
PauPs reason, however, for this as
surance he gives in the statement that
follows: L have not Stunned to declare
the whole counsel of God This have
faithfully endeavored to do, and have
done to the extent of my ability. To
saint and sinner have preached the I'M
searchable riches of Christ, giving to each
his portion. To the unsaved have de-
clared the necessity of faith in Christ, as
wolves repentance and obedience to the
gospel. To the Christian / have preach
ed the necessity of steadfastness In the
faith, of humility and prayerfulness, of
the conservation of all the faculties of the
soul to Christ. of unity and peace. and OF.
life.
'You who have given to me loyal
support. who have sympathized with me
all through these years, or since you
came into the church, have my deepest
gratitude, Ny memory. of you will be
sweet and happy. and l shall not cease
to pray that you may be happy and use
full In the years to come. A few years
more and we shall quit the scenes of
earth. May We be faithful until death, is
my fervent prayer"

ward Miss Erwin young woman resid-

ed to the Seattle police that Moss had
told her he would kill her and two young
Englishmen who are boarding at her
fathers house at Colby. The story she
tells is that some time ago Moss proposed

He said nothing out of the way, she says,
until the two young men came to live at
the house. when he became violently jeal-
her.
On Saturday Miss Erwin and the two
young men came over to Seattle. Moss
met her on the street, she says, and told
