Family Reunited.

Mrs. Jacob Weiss, of No. 1901 Ad-
ans street, is entertaining her sister,
Mrs. Smith and her brother, Mr..
Schaelfer of Cleveland, Ohio, whom
she has not seen for twenty years.
1t is in fact their first meeting since
the family was broken up in Germa-
ny and the children separated and
came to the United States.
Mrs. Smith and Mr.. SchatIer left
Germany twenty years ago, going to
Cleveland whero they have resided
ever since. Mrs. Weiss crossed the
Atlantic Ocean and settled in Will
mingtbn where she has remained cv-
er since.
Some few weeks ago Mrs. Smith
and Mr.. Schaeler, decided to take 4
trip to this city and see their sister.
On Monday evening they arrived and
when Mrs. Weiss responded to their
ring at the door bell She was more
than surprised to find on the door
step her brother and sister.
1t is needless TO say that the greet
ing between the long separated
members of the family was most af-
fectionatc. The past three days
have been spent in pleasant reminis-
cences OF the years spent in Germany
and also what each branch Of the
family has been doing during the two
decades they have not seen each
other.
This family at the present time is
widely separated, Que brother being
in Australia, two brothers in Ger
many, one in Pittsburg, two broth
crsaud two sisters in Cleveland, Ohio,
one brother and ono sister in Wil-
mington, one brother in the western
part of Philadelphia.
Mrs. Smith and Mr.. Schaeifer have
enjoyed themselves very much, hav-
ing visited all the parks In our city
and think they will compare favorably
with the parks in Cleveland. They
expect to stay in the city several
weeks.

COAL FAMINE IN CHICAGO
Diets COLD WAVE.
Tied Up the Coal Roads-7usi
ness Houses Suffering.

Chicago, Dec 19.-Chicago is fac
ing coal famine, and Is degrees be-
low zero is predicted by the, weather
bureau within "a hours. Throughout
and soft coal are begslng shippers to
supply them without avail. The Sc.
we're weather and the floods through
the cocl mining Districts have tied
up railroads to such an extent that
shipping is almost impossible. To
add to the serious shortage, railroad
companies aIe exercising their pre-
rogative of confiscating carloads of
coal as soon as they arrive here and
are putting them to their own use.
Large business houses are suffering
severely for the want of coal and many
concerns are hampered by reason of
insufficient steam power. Today
many owners of large buildings were
heseiging coal dealers and begging
that they be supplied with enough
coal to tide over the zero weather.
At midnight a number of coal deal
ers who had canvassed the situation
in the city reported that there was
not above 80 hours supply in the
city. If relief does not come by that
time there will be much suffering and
many manufacturing plants will be
forced to close.
The prediction of the weather bu-
reau was for new record in low tenn
perature for Chicago in the month of
December, the announcement being
made in the afternoon that it would
fall this evening to Is below zero. AT
midnight the mercury showed five and
was slowly falling.

Back to "Zion."

Chicago, Dec 19.-"Dr." John Alex
ander Dowie, the proclaimed Elijah,
the restorer," broke down when he
went to the witness stand today in
his own behalf and between choking
sobs, told how his confidence in his
brother-in-law and legal opponent,
Samuel Stevenson, had been shaken.
The portly figure of the aged witness
shook spasmodically and the tears
streamed down his face, as he re-
called memories of Stevenson's es-
pousal of Dowie's sister, now deceas-
ed. Later as he was cross-examined
the meek and loWly demeanor chang
ed and he denounced Stevenson call
ed him the "abominable travelling
companion" and said he was of no use
in "Zion" and was always laundering.

around him to act as his body guard

EXPERIENCED men TESTIFY ABOUT BRANDING CATTLE
All Twenty-Five
Thirty Animals per Day by Two Men
No Matter How Expert.

Helena, Dec. 19.-[Special to The
Gazette.I This was the first day of
the defense inning in the Lee-Garvin
case in the federal court. Attorney
Goddard made the opening statement
as to what the defense would prove,
and several witnesses were examined
to prove the contention of the de-
tense. Mr.. Goddard said that Garvin
had lived in the basin bearing his
name number of years and had been
engaged in the cattle business. Four
years ago Lee became his foreman
with the understanding that Lee could
range his own cattle in the basin. In
1899 Lee bought 100 head of COT
cattle in Wyoming. Last year Lee
bought some cattle from two men
named Anderson and Smith, the un-
derstanding being that the cattle
would be branded with Lees "OT"
brand when delivered, as there were
no facilities for branding cattle in the
basin. Smith ard Anderson deliver
ed the cattle properly branded and at
the time they turned over the animals
both men gave Lee bill of sale, wit
messed by Garvin and Ewing. God
dard said the cattle bought from
Smith and Anderson bore the latter's
Mashed o" brand. No attempt was
the basin and examining brands. 1t
was impossible to have branded cat

FAVOR The CANAL BILL
COMMERCE AND NAVIGATION
COMMITTEE REPORT.
Concentrates Authority and RESPONSE
bility in the Hands Of the
President

Washington, Dec. 19.-Representa-
tive Hepburn of Iowa, chairman of the
house committee on commerce and
navigation, today made the report of
the committee in favor of the Mica
rauguan canal bill. After stating the
terms of the bill, the report in part
says:
The purpose of this bill is to concen-
trate authority and responsibility for
the constructing Of this great work in
the hands of the president. 1t has
been believed by your committee that
this course would be safer to be pur-
sued in carrying out the purposes of
the bill, involving the expenditure
of so large sum of money to be made
at distance from the capital, than
any other method that could be devils
ed. We tried to concentrate authority
and responsibility rather than to dis
perse it among many persons"
The report refers to the ''EXhaustive
report made by the isthmian commits
sion, of which Admiral Walker is the
head, in which the features of this en-
terprise are fully and at length dis
cussed," and adds: "No doubt is ex-
pressed by the committee as to the
| practicability of the enterprise, on the
contrary they join with score of pre-
decessors in expressing their belief
that the work can be carried to sue.

tie in the basin, that fire seen near
the corral was used by Lee and Garvin
in heating irons to scar wounds on
cattle that had been dehorned. Sew
eral witnesses were called to prove
that it would have been impossible
to have made running brands upon
cattle in the short time the govern
ment claimed it was done Bud" Lit
tlepage, who had worked for large out
fits, said that it would have been i'm
possible for two trained men to have
put on running brands on more than
25 or 80 cattle a day as animals would
have to be roped. On cross-examina-
tion the witness said it might have
been possible for two men to have
branded over I'D" and "CO" with
mashed 80" in open chutes, but he
had never seen such a thing and would
not attempt it.
ExSheriff Dunn of Carbon county
said two men could not have branded
cattle with mashed 20" over I'D" and
"CO' from an open chute, and could
not put on ear marks without a
"squeezer.' The witness said 25 OF
80 cattle per day was all that two
men could put running brands on.
R. G. Howard, formerly boss herd
er on the Grow reservation, said that
Is cattle a day were about all two
could put running brands on in a day
Stock Inspector Collins testified
along the came lines.

to unite Admirals Sampson and Schley

WATER SCARCE.
Kansas Suffering for Water More
Than From Cold.

Topeka, Dec 19-Three degrees be-
low zero is the lowest temperature
recorded by the official thermometers
in Kansas today. To night the indica-
ton are that the mercury will descend
several degrees further. The cold
spell has up to the present time been
almost unaccompanied by winds and
no suffering to stock is resulting. If
it were not for the scarcity of water
the stockmen could get along without
any trouble from the weather. The
water supply. however. is the most
serious problem of the winter. Little
snow has accompanied the cold and
the outlook for stockmen is anything
but encouraging.
