RAILWAY BARRICADES
BLOCK CONSTRUCTION

Salt Lake. Utah, April 24.-Denver
News Special.-A crisis will be reach
ed within the next few days in the big
fight between Senator Clark and +. ii.
Hartman for possession of the old
100000 grade In Nevada. The Clark
forces have drawn Il dead line and
erected n barricade Mt point twelve
miles beyond Uvada, the present ter
minus OF Harriman's Oregon Short
Line. The Clark men are strung out
along the entire grade beyond the
dead line and hold possession. The
Short Line track layers are eight miles
beyond Uvada, and have distributed
ties almost to the dead line. When
they reach this latter point there is
certain to be n collision of some sort
unless the Hartman people recede
from their announced purpose to so
right on. Senator Clark's men are also
laying track on their portion Of the
grade, and their rails have an interest
ing history.
Thirty years ago little narrow
gauge road was built from Pioche to
Bullionville, Nevada. The rails were
hauled hundreds of miles by OK team.
Senator Clark's company has pur-
chased several miles Of this old track
and Is hauling the rails by wagon to
the disputed grade. 1t has also Sc
cured push car from the same source
and can thus claim that 1t has rail
road In operation.
While the value Of the disputed
grade is $1,000, 900, its value to the op-
posing companies Is much greater. as
It is the key to the best route from
salt Lake to Los Angeles.

There were really no nets on the

property had been abandoned, rs re-

taken In order to succor hundreds Of

One evening not long ago he planned

Usually he retrCs ut reasonably

was In bed and presumably asleep.
and then he stole up to their room with
his camera and load of fiaShlight

He listened for moment to his

he quietly planted his apparatus and
prepared for action.
When oil was In readiness he sud

London, April 24.-Commenting on
tbe placing of consols In the United
states. the Liverpool Post says:
ut is an event of immense financial
and economic Significance. 1t shows
that the balance of Indebtedness is be-
ing changed. The United States is be-
coming Great Britains creditor. and
the change of relationship will neces-
sorily have a very direct eject on
trade. 1t may influence the interna.
tional financial position. II London's
pre-emnence as thc financial center OF
tbe M world is lost, and II New York
shares the position with London, the
new situation will be decidedly less
favorable than the old to British nnah-

BEGINNING THE TRIAL OF THE
|ss STRONG MINE CASE IN DENVER

Denver, Colo, April 24.-The sensa-
ton caused by the blowing up of the
Strong mine, on Battle mountain, was
reviewed yesterday in the District
Court before Judge Palmer when the
trial OF the damage suit of William
Lennox against Sam Strong, multi
millionaire, was called. The entire
! day was taken up with the examina-
F ton of the jury panel. Some of the
best legal talent In the state appeared
to battle for the rights of their respec-
tive clients.
The plaintiffs ask for $4,000 dam
ages. They were the lessees of the
mine, upon which they held n bond
and lease. In their complaint they al
lege that Strong became possessed
with the idea that the mine was bond
ed and leased Mt too Insignificant fig-
ure, and charge that he took advan-
tage Of the labor troubles at Cripple
Creek and Victor in 1894. The entire
shaft house was blown up, scattering
the debris in all directions and render
ing the mine entirely imperative. In
view Of the fact that the union miners
were at that time fighting for rights
they thought due them from the mine
operators, 1t was charged that union
miners committed the crime.
The case was first taken to the Dis
trict Court of Teller county, and then
change of veneue was granted to the
District Court Of this county. 1t was
called promptly Mt 10 o'clock. Attor-
neys G. Helm and G. W. Allen. ]. w.

leo, and will be present at to-morrow's
session. Sam Strong was u prominent
figure In the court room throughout
the day.
"A large number OF witnesses, near
ly sixty in all, have been summoned
One of these is John E. Allen, who
made deposition that Strong hired
him and Il companion to blow up the
mine, and upon this deposition main.
ly has the suit been brought Aliens
deposition, in which he says he con.
fesses all that took place between him
and Strong, is lengthy document Of
nearly thirty folio pages, and includes
every detail of the agreement which,
he says, was made between Strong
and himself. The attorneys for the
defense will attempt to show no mo-
tive for Strong's alleged act. They
have many witnesses to support the
contention. In his confession Allen
exonerates Nicholas Tully and Rober1
Lyons from all completely in the blow
ing up Of the mine. Both men have
served sentence in the penitentiary,
having been convicted OF being impli-
Gated in the blowing up Of the mine.
Allen says n man of the name Of
Munsford was his accomplice, and
gives as his reason for confession that
he did not care to have men serving a
sentence in the penitentiary for a
crime they never committed. He had
been in British Columbia for a num-

the outcome of the matter.
