MAMIE STARTS
CONFEDERATION
AT LEAST EVIDENCE POINTS TO
GUILT OF THE sUPRENAUT
WOMAN.
MYSTERIOUS FIRE IN A
PAINT AND PAPER SHOP.
Discovered in Time to Prevent Seri.
u Damage-Woman Ar
rested for Arson.

This morning the store of David Walk,
located on one of the alleys running be-
tween Main n Wyoming streets, was
fOundt to be on fire, and for a few minutes,
a serious confiagfatiOn was feared. a
crowd of volunteers set to work, how
ever, and succeeded in extinguishing the
blaze, although not until 100 rolls of pa
per and some other goods had been de-
stroyed. Just back of the store is the
wareroom, where a large amount of OF s,
paints, varnishes and other inflamable
was stored, but the fire did not reach that
part of the building.
Upon investigation, the conclusion was
reached that the fire was of ~incendlary
origin, and Mamie Supernaut, a notorious
woman, and ex-convict who lives near by,
was suspected of the crime. Chief Detec-
tive Murphy was notified by Mr.. Walk,
and he soon uncovered sufficient evidence
to justify him in arresting Mamie, who is
now at the city jail with the charge OF
arson booked against her.
j. w. Baker, who resides in the vicinity
states thai he saw a woman enter the
place, there being no one else there at the
time. A few minutes later he saw her run
out and disappear, and Immediately the
fire broke out. Detective Murphy has
other evidence tha will be forthcoming
at the trial. For a motive, it is said that
Mamie a it in for some one connected
with the store, and it is thought she
adopted this method of getting even.
OF course there is a chance that IT is
all a mistake, but the officers are certain
the place was set on fire and are CONN
dent they have caught the guilty party.
Mamie will probably be rralgned to-
morrow.

Fixed.

New York, August 22.-James Dubois,
consul general to Switzerland, has arrived
here to consult With the appraising depart
ments at this port relative to the stitch
count on St. Gall embroideries.
When questioned regarding the date set
for d conference with the appraising Off
GERS, Mr.. Dubois said:
actual time has been set for the
conference. With regard to my views on
the subject, l have not as yet submitted
to Washington, and it would be discour-
teous on the matter before having done so.
l can say, however, that l shall at the
conference recommend the stitch counting
regulative' which has been adopted at ST.
Gall, consisting of the following %changes:
THE 'festoon' stitch to be counted as
one stitch. and not as one, and a half, as
formerly, and the 'underlay' stitch as one
way the stitchers at St. Gall receive pay
ment for their work."

Lake to Los Angeles. The entrance of
Clark into this gigantic enterprise has
not peen taken without careful consid-
Grafton. The route is all known and laid
out on paper. The p~loughshare is in
shape for vigorous work at no distant
day. Clark is about the only man in the
country who has capital enough of his
own, and sufficiently free from entan-
clements with other railroads to be able
to take hold of this vast undertaking.
If, as is believed by many railroad people
here, there is solid %foundation beneath
these rumors, this means a great squirt
for Los Angeles. When the road is
down 1t means a competing route to the
east-the shortest easiest, most com
Portable, from a climatic point of view,
of all the lines. It means the opening of
500 miles of territory rich in mineral and
agricultural possibilities. 1t will provide
a constant. growing market, and will
bring to tidewater the coal and iron ores
of southern Utah and Nevada, and in
sure the building of great iron industries
here.

C[ARK'S DEAL
IN RAILROADS
RuMoR THAT MONTANA MIL
L1oNAIRE HAS BOUGHT LOS
ANGELES TERMINAL.
TO CONSTRUCT NEW LINE
ACROSS THE CONTINENT.
salF Lake & Los Angeles Road to Be
the Link-officals Deny the
4 Rumor.

=, special dispatch to the Salt Lake
irpuIe from Los Angeles says:
Inc times will say tomorrow that for
sevfrai days past various rumors have
naa me air that the Terminal railroad
nad5 peen sold. The arrival here last
week OF President Leighton caused these
IuIaors TO fly in f1ocks. The story that
Inc road had been sold to the Southern
Faflnc quickly e~vaporated. The latest
anu most ponderable report is that the
derIhlnai mas been bought by w. A.
Clark, the Montana ex-senator and min
ing King. and n of the richest men in
me world, who proposes to head the con-
stfuctlon OF a new line across the CONT
nent.
PerhaDs it is best to state at the out
SET that 1. %. Gibbon, vice-president of
the road. asserts positively that the sale
mas not been made. Technically this de-
MIA must be true ,or Gibbon would not
make 1t. But still rumors lift their voices
nlgner and more frequently in local rail-
road offices, and their sources are of such
high responsibility that it is impossible
to ignore them.
The story is that Clark has entered
into an agreement to buy the whole Ter
mlnal property, and that he has put up
the matter of a quarter of a million dol
lars to bind the bargain; that it will take
TWO or three weeks to close the deal, and
that by that time all the world will
Know the whole story of the transaction.
If that were all it would not be Of
great significance. But other chapters
go on to recite that it means, at a very
early day, the beginning of work on
he long-talked-of Los Angeles & Salt
Lake railroad, a long link in a new
and independent transcontinental line
between the east and the west. That
is what the Terminal was intended to be.
The far-sighted and courageous men
who put their money into the venture
put it there was a clear conception Of
what it's value would some day be as ter
minal facilities for what was sure to
come sooner or later-a rOad from Salt

Officers.

The new Board of Governors of the Ber-
gen Republican Club will meet to organize
this evening. The ward association, In
conformity with the constitution of the
County Committee, will also organize
Wednesday might and select a chairman.
Mr. Louis StubenvoM, who has occupied
the chair for a year past, will succeed
himself. The association is controlled by
the re gulars, who have fifteen sure votes.
The anti-ringsters have eight, and Will
liam G. Nelson is considered doubtful by
both sides.
Heretofore seven constituted quorum.
Now eleven is necessary. This prevents
the ani-ringsters from organizing In op-
position to the ring, or being of danger
to the followers of the machine.
A new constitution will lbe adopted. 1t
was the privilege of any three members
desiring "a meeting to have the same
called by the chairman. In the future
meetings will be held monthly. This, iii is
hoped will do away with friction, which
has arisen over the calling of meetings.
There will be no meetings, however, dur
ing June, July and August.
The ring has now complete control of
the Bergen Republican Club. Every Off
Ger elected last week is in sympathy with

in the ward. or club affairs. 1t is expected
that every follower of the anti-ring fac
tfon will resign designations are expect
ed at the next meeting. 1t has peen said
that the fifty members of the anti-ring
element will leave the club very shortly.

their influence will be felt on the out
side however.
