Attempted Train Wreckinq.

For several days Detectives Crowley
and Fitzpatrick have been investigat-
ing case OF attempted train wreck
ing. A few nights ago a track walker
discovered that the spikes had been
removed from several rails at a point
four and a half mines east of Wads-
worth. In clump of bushes near by
was found "a claw bar, the tool used in
removing the spikes, and which had
been stolen from the section house at
Humboldt. Footprints at the scene
showed that but one man was concern
ed in the dastardly piece of work. 1t
is remarkable that the trainwrecker s
plan failed, as several trains undoubt-
edly passed over the spot after tbs
rails had been lOOsened. The crime is
supposed to have been committed by a
discharged section hand.-Silver State.

once An order was placed last week
v it'll the Colorado Fuel and Iron Works
for 5000 tons Of rails, and the stock is TO

thirty days says, the San Francisco Call.
Senator Clark will tie president Of the
company and it will have capitalization

The reasons for having the rails
shipped to Southern California is ex-
planned by the announcement that it is
the purpose Of the promoters to first
| build line between Los Angeles and
San Bernadine. The 5000 tons OF rails
that have been ordered will just about
build track between these two places.
! Upon the completion Of this section OF
the line work will he started at Salt
Lake City, the plan being to have force
busy at both enoS of the line. The total
length of the road will be about 700 miles
which will require about $4,000 tons OF
rails. The read viii cut through the

A Suggestion.

There seems to be geneaal idea
that the election recounts IN Ormsoy
will result in some startling develop
ments. All sorts Of rumOrs are ahoat
relative TO what was done in this and
that precinct and these rumors reflect
on the character and integrity OF the
election officers The only way to set
lie these questions is by recount. No
nan who served as an election officer
con afford to rest under cloud OF sus-
picion in this connection.
Some years ago there was similar
state OF affairs when a recount was de-
handed in the Commissioners office.
It was charged that the election Off
Gers were guilty Of either neglect or
crook ed ness. The recount showed no
material change, thus indicating the
characters OF the officers.
Cnder decision of the Supreme
Court anyone can secure recount by
making the necessary affidavit, and the
oest way to settle the talk is to have
the recounts over and fully settled as
soon as possible.
In this connection the APPEAL sug-
gests that law might hc passed at the
next session of the legislature which
would materially minimize the prob
ability of mistakes.

ton: ''Does the Indian government
do anything to prevent famine?" He
answered the question by saying that
it did all in its power.
Rev. DR.. johnson, a missionary of
Central India, said he had passed
through three Indian famines. He
told some pitiful and pathetic stories
of the sacrifices of women-especially
Of women for their children.
Rev. DIR. Parker, who had been for
some years missionary in India,
was announced as a substitute for
Miss Lila Singh. He gave illustrations
of how the money sent for the relief
of the famine-stricken people was
spent.
A list of names of prominent men
was read as composing a committee
to collect money for the famine suf-
ferers. The contributions Sunday
night amounted to $1,667. Miss Helen
NJ. Gould, who occupied one of the
boxes, pledged 5000.

Believed Sultan Will Not Pay Indem-

Constantinople, April 30.-The porte
has not yet replied to the note handed
to Tewfik Pasha, the Turkish foreign
minister, by the United States charge
d affaires, Mr.. Lloyd Griscom, regard
ing the indemnity claim, and the stu
alton is unchanged. 1t is believed in
some quarters that a settlement will
yet be made by means of some arrange
ment with private American contract
ors, concealing the actual payment, and
thus relieving the Ottoman govern
ment from admitting responsibility
for the losses occasioned at the time
of the massacres.
Constantinople, Friday. April 81.
The United States legation has not yet
received the porte's answer to the note
handed to Tewfik Pasha, the Turkish
foreign minister, by the American
charge d'afraires regarding the in
demnity claims; and the impression is
gaining ground that the reply will be
in the negative, or even that no reply
will be made. The latter alternative,
however, seems to be unlikely. The
general opinion is that without dis.
play of force the porte certainly will
not pay the claims, because it wishes
to show the Moslem world that it only
yields to force.

RETURNS TO KENTUCKY.
Gov. Taylor Reaches Frankfort-No
Warrant for His Arrest Has
Yet Been Served.

Frankfort, KY, April 3o.-Gov. w. S.
Taylor has returned here from Wash
ington and spent Sunday at the execu-
tive mansion with his family. He stated
that he returned to silence the ru-
mors that he was endeavoring to es-
cape indictment. After attending to
the matter of ascertaining whether
there is any indictment against him
he will return to Washington. The
presence of Gov. Taylor was known to
the local officers and to those in charge
of the prosecution, and the fact that
warrant of arrest was not served upon
him is now construed to mean that
the Indictment in this case will be held
up and no process issued on it for sew
eral days. The Indictment was re-
turned in open court after those against
Finley, Powers, Culton and others were
returned, but it was not entered as of
record, and is now understood to be in
the possession of Judge Cantrill.
