CROKER IS BACK HOME.
Explains About Ice Trust and Talks
oS Campaign.


New York. June 23.-Richard Croker
arrived from England today on board
the Cunard line steamer Lucania. He
says that he is ready to take a very
active part in the coming national cam
paign. Mr.. Croker acknowledged hav-
ing owned American ice stock, but said
it was bought before the company be-
came a trust. and would not say if he
was now a stakeholder. AS to the re-
quest made to Governor Roosevelt to
remove Mayor Van Wyck for his own
ership of ice stock, Mr.. Croker said:
The governor has the power to do
so if the mayor is guilty, but all men
must be considered innocent until they
are convicted of wrongdoing"
What would you consider as gull
typ" he was asked
well, in case the mayor used his
Office to get possession of the shares
Of stock or to increase the price of ice,
that would be, if proven, cause for his
removal" was the reply.
Mr.. Croker said that with Roosevelt
as McKinley's running mate we should
have San Juan all over again He
said that he was going to Kansas City
and that he had to thank the New
York newspapers for making him a
delegate. It looked, ne said, as if Bry-
an would be the Democratic nominee
for the presidency.
Mr.. Croker was asked whether he
thought Controller COler would make
a good vice presidential candidate OF
a stronger candidate for governor, but
he said that he could not answer that
Mr. Croker said that in their trust
plank the Republicans were simply
straddling the matter.
They cannot take that plank away
from the Democrats, he said.

CHIoAGoANs ARE SLAIN.
American Missionaries Perish at Tien
Tsin.


Chicago, June 23.-The Chronicle
says: If the news which comes from
Tien Tsin is true, thirteen Chicagoans
have persisted under the Boxer"
sword If Tien Tsin is destroyed, the
mission workers Of China have lost
their central station, including the two
largest and oldest hospitals IN the
north.
OF the Chicagoans who have gone to
North China as missionaries, the best
known are DR.. Henry Porter and Rev.
Arthur Smith. These men, with their
families are supposed 10 have gone
TO Tien Tsin from their station at Pang
Chuang five weeks ago for safety. With
them was Mrs. POrter'S sister, Miss
Mary H Porter, foremost among the
representatives Of the Women's board
of the interior IN China
Misses Grace and Gertrude NlokOh
left Pang Chuang last spring TO make
their permanent station at Tien Tsin
until the trouble farther south should
cease. Miss Nellie Russell, who, While
not a Chicago girl, studied here and
went from this district, notified friends
at Bessemer, Mich, recently that she
had left her station some miles south
of Tien Tsin to take quarters In the
city. Last of the list of those whose
fate is uncertain is Miss Frances 3
Patterson, whose permanent station Is
Tien Tsin-
Rev. Mr.. Smith, who is perhaps the
hest known of the American mission
force in China because of the books
he has written concerning the coun-
try and its people, has had charge OF
the Congregational agency at Pang
Cbuang.

MACARTHUR rs sILFNT.
Says Nothing to War Department of
Peace Meeting.

Washington, June 23.-Perhaps be
cause he was not himself prepared to
make any recommendation upon them.
General Macarthur did not transmit
to the war department the results of
the meeting Of the Filipinos at Manila
yesterday, at which they drew up the
terms of the settlement of the differ
enees between the leaders of tho in
surrection and he United States gov
eminent. The general impression. is
that General Macarthur will leave the
Philippine commission to deal with
such matters.
Some, at least, of the conditions de-
sired corrected are incorporated in the
instructions given TO the commission.
For instance, Judge Taft, the president
of the commission, had been specially
charged by his colleagues with the con-
sideration of the question as to how the
universal desire of the Filipinos for the
ejectment Of the friars from the archi-

Pittsburg, Pa, June Ex-senator
Hanna, chairman of the Republican
national committee, was in the city for
short time today en- route from Phil
adelphia to Cleveland, and talked at
length on the plans of the campaign.
Il have been aSsailed on every hand
by the question as to what states we
will win over from the Democrats,
said the Ohio senator, "and we would
like to tell the newspapers and would
like to have them tell everybody in the
country who is interested ia the cam
paign that the grand old party this
year will go after its opponents wher-
ever they are found No stronger ticket
was ever put in the field.

General Grosyenor having made any
forecasts as to the results of this cam

California will vindicate itself. Up in

Asked as to his opinion Of the result
of the fight in Nebraska the senator

Senator Hanna stated that very lit
tie would be done for several weeks.
About August 1, he said, the issues
of the campaign will be clearly defined
and the national managers will then be

talks to visiting delegations at his

would probably take the stump during
the campaign and deliver a number of
speeches.

BIKE RIDING ON WALKS
Councilman Hartenstein Load
ed For Legislation.
WHAT OTHER CITIES DO
SENTII MT IN SALT LAKE
WORKING FOR A CHANGE.

councilman Hartenstein has been in
vestigating the question of riding bicy-
cles on sidewalks all over the United
States. and he is now prepared to
make a very strong argument when
his ordinance on the subject comes
before the council. He has discovered
the fact, which viii doubtless be sur
prising to the bicyclists of Salt Lake,
that many cities of the country do not
permit bicycles on the sidewalks at all.
Letters were addressed by him to the
city clerks and mayors of many east
ern and western cities, and the replies
have come in. The questions asked
them were whether or not bicycles
could be ridden on the sidewalks, and
what the restrictions were. Replies
have been received from these cities,
which, unlikely as it may seem, do not
permit bicycles on the sidewalks: AL
bany, n. Y; Atlanta, Ga; Toronto.
Can; Springfield, IL: Providence, r.
l.; Los Angeles, Cal; New Haven,
Conn; Richmond, Va; Hartford,
Conn, and Omaha.
Big Fines Provided.
Some of the cities have provided big
For instance, in Toronto it will cost
the unlucky rider $50 if he is caught.
In Albany it will cost him SO, and he
must pay this if he rides faster than
eight miles an hour in any part of the
city. In Atlanta he can ride only six
miles an hour St Paul and Troy, n.
Y, have restricted areas. Troy gives
the bicyclists only one street, and il
they ride on the sidewalks of any 9TH
er they viii be not only fined $40, but
sent for ten days to the common Jail
of Rensselaer, county"
In Portland, Ore, bicyclists are
permitted to ride on any sidewalk
from November until May They fare
better in Portland than in any city
from which replies were received.
Sentiment of Home Citizens.
In addition to these letters, Mr..
Hartenstein received from well known
men of Salt Lake several letters en-
dorsing his position. Most of them
are quite severe in their criticism Of
the council and the gentleman from
the Fourth would not give them out
for publication. Cashier B. G. Ray
bOuld of the Utah National bank uses
some strong language.
7 am glad to see" wrote the banker,
I'VE have one man in the council who
is not afraid Of the Wheelmen. If you
do not succeed in passing the ordinance
contemplated, then l beg to suggest
the prOpriety of framing an ordinance
prohibiting pedestrians from using the
sidewalks at all, Notwithstanding that
they have built and own the sidewalks,
but compelled to walk in the streets. -
