of agreement between the rival interests
in Union and Northern Pacific. 1t was
generally accepted by the street that the
Burlington deal would go through, but
that it would be arranged on some basis
satisfactory to the Kuhn-L Loeb Hartman
people.
Indeed, it was said that the Hartman
syndicate was in a position to dictate
terms, but 1t did not wish to proceed ar
bitrarily in the matter. It was denied by
Kuhn, Loeb & Co., and their asso-
ciates in the deal that they had had any
desire to squeeze" the shorts, all of
their buying having been done simply to
secure Northern Pacific stock for voting
purposes, and not as a speculative ma
neuver.
The most prominent figures in the
financial world were vitality interested in
the outcome of the unprecedented situa
tion disclosed by the Hartman people
for control of the Northern Pacific. and
throngs crowded the offices of ]. P. Nor
gan Co., Kuhn, Loeb & Co., the First
National and the National City banks,
eagerly awaiting news. There were many
conferences Of various financial leaders
throughout the morning.

Alfred Maymann, who is associated with
Charles Frohman, said that Mr.. Frohman
first paid the earl at the rate OF $3.50 a
week. Afterward the salary was 800 a
week.
"Didn't the plaintiffs name appear as
the Earl of Yarmouth?
Yes" answered the witness, 'as often
as we could get 1t in.
Irving Marks testified that in his opin-
ion the earl was not a good actor, and
was valuable to theatrical employers sim
ply because of his lineage. John ]. Cole
man, a theater manager, said that he did
not think that the earl was worth much
as an actor. So did Miss Jennie Jacobs, a
BROKERAGE agent. who said that she had
agreed to pay the earl and a young
woman who acted. with him, $s5 week for
their services.
Not $5 Year.
Mr.. Marks, who had a fine flower gar
den in his button hole said that he had
said that he would not give the earl So a
year for his appearance at the Sunday
concerts at the American theater without
his title When asked just how the earl
was to be valuable anyway at sacred
concert Mr.. Marks was embarrassed.
WarI Decker, who once was hero be-
cause he accompanied Miss Cisnero out OF
prison In Havana, where she was locked
up by the ever hated Weyler, testified
that he had written an article in which
the earl was described as one who would
be obliged to find occupation as a cab
driver if he lost his place as an actor.
He was asked what he meant by that
and said:

ity to drive cabs. meant to indicate by the

Special to The Journal.
Washington, May 9.-Acting Commis-
sioner of Indian Affairs Tonner has re-
ceived no advices that the Chippewas are
arming to prevent the removal of timber
cut from their reservations in Minnesota
under dead and down contracts. He did
get word from Captain Mercer short
time ago that movement was on foot to
prevent the expectation of timber, but
there was no threat of armed forces. AT
his suggestion Captain Mercer has gone
to Pine Point and other places mentioned
in the dispatch from st. Cloud to inyesti-
gate the trouble and straighten it out II
possible.
Captain Tonner to-day received a re-
port that all the Indians at Bad River and
Lac Du Flambeau and Fond du Lac reser-
vation who have had smallpox have re-
covered and the disease is entirely
stamped out
No word has reached here about the
smallpox situation in South Dakota in
several days. The Indian officials argue
from this that 1t is under control.

story of the wild Day From Start to
Finish.
New York, May 9.-The great excite
ment and heavy decline in practically all
securities except Northern Pacific which
began OF the stock exchange yesterday
afternoon, continued to-day. From the
moment Of the exchanges opening the
trading was furiously active, and for the
first half-hour, at least, apparently with
out support, although Northern Pacific
rose higher and higher on the bidding of
the frightened shorts. This stock rose
rapidly from ITO to 100, and then, almost
without pause, the advance kept on
until at OBS o'clock, 300 was paid for 500
shares for immediate delivery. At the
same 100 shares for to-morrow's delivery
were sold for 23O.
All this time, as fast as Northern Pa
cific went up, other stocks were going
down. The opening declines in New York
Central, Missouri Pacific, Louisville and
Atchison ranged from 2 to 5 points and
it seemed for. time as if orders were
being given to sell without regard to
prices. This wildness was uninterrupted
until about 1910, when it seemed that for
the moment, at least, there was a dispo-
sition to steadiness.
The steamships Majestic and Servia.
which arrived from Europe last evening,
had in their mails large blocks of North
ern Pacific common for the account Of
arbftrage houses. which were delivered to
them in the early mail this morning. The
stocks were made ready for instant dellv-
cry on the exchange, but apparently they
were not drop in the bucket, for the
frantic demand for the stock was not at
fected.

conferences were being held to patch ur

The Snake in The Grass.

The Herald of last week makes big howl and
INDUCES in lot Of personal abuse OF the officers OF
the Fair, all because they did not get handful
of complimentary tickets and were not given free
stand to distribute their paper, filled with abuse OF
the institution and its officers of whom they were
asking favors. Though they seemed good and
their right hand was extended in friendly Lam
ner, around the left they had wrapped handker
chief which concealed the dagger that was 10 stab
to death the greatest Fair in the history OF Har-
rison county and all on account of the personal
spite and hatred which they bear to the gentlemen
who compose the board of directors.
Their only aim seems to be to strike and bite
at some of the young professional element Of the
city and they never lose an opportunity to do so
even to their own detriment They have contiau
ed to fight and oppose the building OF the Clarks.
burg Street Railway, a thing that will do Clarks
burg more good than any improvement she has had
in the past fifty years.
When they try to- destroy and tear down the
Harrison county Fair they are enemies to every
good citizen ofthe county and to her greatest pride
The Fair IS not run for the profit of any man
and every cent made is used to beautty the ground
increase premiums and make it better and more
popular attraction each year.
From the general tone of the organs editorials
from one week to another one would think that
they entertained hatred for all men who ill Office
This disgruntled gang INDUCES itself in its
customary Generalization of thought ard misrepre
sentaton of facts, when it says it contracted for
space on the Fair grounds. In short, base I'M
truth is heralded to the world in the most brazen
manner What it says about the President Of the
Fair is also untrue in every respect and no one
knows it better til ~ the Herald.

versy with these eopIe or bother readers about
them. Personal abuse " Newspapers has lon1

scarcely make them stronger and more bitter foes
Of anarchy, but still they do harm. Such letters,
however, would serve to encourage them in their

There is possibly no member Of the fraternity
the Telegram thinks more of than Editor r. Add
Hall, and our estimate of his paper the Weston
Independent is the very highest Editor Hall is
agentleman in the highest sense. HIS concep-
tions of right and wrong are of the clearest, and
he is ever found on the side of right. He seldom
if ever. makes mistake and is of such generous
mind and heart as to eagerly correct and undo any
injustice unintentonally done. To him and his
excellent paper IS largely due the development and
progress of Lewis county, whose highest interests
are uppermost in his heart at all times. The indie
pendent is power on account of Mr., Halls devo.
ton to right, purity of thought and honesty of
purpose-principles that should be zealously
taught in every American household. The people
Of Lewis county should feel proud of such citi-
zen as r. Add Hall and such paper as the H.
