ONE SUSPECT HELD
SAN FRANCISCO POLICE THINK
THEY HAVE ONE OF THE GOLD
BULLION THIEVES
HAVE NOT FOUND THE GOLD
But Claim to Have Much Circum-
stantiaI Evidence Against the
Prisoner Now Under
Arrest.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 8.-Capt. Sey-
mour, of the local detective force, has
disclosed the identity of the man whom
the police department has in custody
on suspicion OF being implicated in the
robbery of $3.50, 600 worth Of gold bullion
from the Selby smelter works at Vail
ejo. The suspect is John Winters. thirty
seven years old, former employe of
the smelling company. Capt. Seymour
also outlined he evidence on which Win
ters is being held as follows:
"a mans cap which was found in the
railroad tunnel last Tuesday morning has
been positively identified as a head COW
ering worn by Winters, and to strength
en- this fact there is the further one that
the suspect has been wearing a new cap
ever since the time of the robbery. He
explains his loss of the old one by say
ing that it blew away.
CONVINCING EVIDENCE.
1.-THE cover Of the tunnel excavated by
the thieves was constructed of laths
upon which some cloth was fastened with
tacks of a. peculiar pattern, and tacks
similar to these were found today in
Winters cabin. Portions of laths similar
to those composing the framework Of the
cover nave been found at the same place.
"a pistol owned by Winters and found
in his cabin Is covered with mud which
corresponds exactly with the earth taken
from the tunnel.
''In the tunnel were found several cubs 8
of peculiar chalk which had evidently
been used to smother the grinding sound
made by the drill by which the floor
plate of the vault has been bored, and
pieces Of chalk exactly like them were
discovered in Winters residence.
I'm the cabin was also found a new in
strument designed to cut gas pipe. A
small electric battery and tiny electric
bulb, the latter being covered with dirt,
similar to that in the tunnel, was found
in the cabin.
winters had been seen late at night in
the vicinity of the railroad tunnel six
or seven times by persons who had
occasion to pass that way.
Winters stoutly claims that he knows
nothing whatever about the robbery.

NEW YORK, Aug. S.-According to
the passengers on the White Star liner
Majestic that steamship twice caught
fire just as the boat was approaching
New York harbor. The fires are ascribed
to overheated boilers and an imperfectly
insulated electric wire.
The World quotes John D. Rockefeller
Jr., the son of the multi-millionaire. who
was passenger as saying:
Had it happened a day earlier there
Is no saying what might have occurred.

APPREHEND TROUBLE.
Fears Expressed That the Panama
Railroad May BE Attacked


NEW YORK, Aug. Sc. A. Drake,
secretary Of the Panama railroad, said
today that the communication which j.
Edward Simmons, president of the COM
pany, sent to the state department, ex-
pressing apprehension of trouble along
the isthmus of Panama and suggesting
that an American warship go to the Pa
cifc side at Colon, was sent largely as
the result Of the pressure which resi-
dents of the isthmus have brought to
bear on the company. Since Wednesday
night officers of the company in New
York have received mail advices from the
isthmus showing increased activity on
the part Of the insurgents in the shape
of depredations by bands of from forty
to fifty guerrillas. AS yet these guer-
rillas have no organization. The largest
body of them is near Chorrera, and the
government force there is said to be not
strong enough to leave the town.
The company's superintendent has not
reported the destruction of any of it's
property as yet and the uneasiness felt
in this city is due rather to the state
ment of the United States consul general
and to private advices.

MOVEMENTS OF EDWARD VII.
Hour of HIS MaJesty's Departure
From London Kept Secret.

LONDON, Aug. S-Rumors are current
that the reason why the departure from
London for Germany of King Edward
and otner royal mouruers has been de-
layed is that the police authorities had re-
ceived information OF a plot which tho
anarchists had intended to place in effect
at Frederichshof. it is certainly some
what significant that even now the exact
hour Of the kings departure has not been
made known. However, preparations for
his departure are complete. Accom-
panied by Queen Alexandra and Princess
Victoria he will leave London tomorrow
evening and reach Kronberg in time TO
be present at the memorial service which
is to be held there Sunday.

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-Just before
the navy department closed today an or
der was sent to Capt George c. Reiter,
of the battleship Wisconsin, now at Ana
cortes, near the Puget sound naval sta
ton, to proceed to San Francisco, from
which point the battleship will be dis
patched to Panama, in case the state
department requa5ts the presence of
warship on the Pacific side of the 18TH
mus This action was taken after Acting
Secretary Hackett had received from the
state department a communication from
Mr. J. Edward Simmons, of New York,
president of the Panama Railway COM
pany, setting forth the seriousness of
the situation on the isthmus and
suggesting that warships be sent
both to the Atlantic and Pacific
side. Mr.. Adee. the acting secretary Of
state, replied to Mr. Simmons that tie
gunboat Machias had been ordered to
Colon, on the Atlantic side, but it was
the view of officials during the early
part of the day, both at the state de-
partment and the navy department, that
there was no present necessity for send
ing down a ship on the Pacific side. For
this reason Mr.. Adee made no request
on the navy department for another
ship but as a matter of information he
transmitted the letter of Mr. Simmons
to the acting head of the navy depart
ment.
TO AWAIT ORDERS.
While this was not a request for a
ship ~yet Mr. Hackett felt that it was
quite desirable to have one in readiness
to go should the request be made. He
therefore directed that the order be sent
to the Wisconsin to come down to San
Francisco and there await further or
ders
The selection of a battleship for this
prospective duty apparently gives
gravity to the situation, which in reality
1t does not possess. Unfortunately, most
of the smaller ships are in Asiatic
waters. and the department was obliged
to choose between unserviceable old
wooden ships and the fine new battle
ships on the Pacific station.
In view of Mr.. Simmons letter, which
was construed to be a request for the
protection of American interests, 1t was
deemed best to have the battleship ut
San Francisco, where she can proceed
witt nut delay to the isthmus.
T y Wisconsin is one of the finest ships
sent this will be practically her first
active duty, as she has been in commis-
sion only short time. She has dis
placement of 1850 tons, is heavily ar
mored and has a main battery Of four
thirteen-inch breech-loading rifles and
fourteen six-inch rapid-fire guns, which,
with her second battery, makes her one
Of the most formidable ships aioat Her
complement is about 500 officers and men,
Including about seventy-five marines.

the uncomfortable heat of one noon that Jagged everybody fell to frost the fol- lowing morning-has produced an epi- demie of most painful and annoying colds" said leading doctor of Birming- ham yesterday.
 T have myself suffered torture for three days past and feel worse than ever today. Yet I have been racing around trying to carry relief and good cheer to my 'colded' patients. The colds now prevalent have not assumed anything like a dangerous form, except in that all colds are inherently more or less dangerous; but many good people who are suffering and wheezing and sneezing have come al- most to the point reached by seasick per- sons-annoyed that death isn't nigh.
 '"The best thing to do when one catches severe cold is for one to go to bed, and keep snug and warm, risks no draughts of wind, and encounter nothing that is bodily fatiguing The patient doing this will suffer but little and will entirely re- cover within forty-eight hours, provided certain light remedies be taken according to doctors prescription"

Washington, October 18-The industrial commission today made public its report on labor disputes and arbitration. It takes up in detail the evidence on col lective bargaining, conciliation and arbi- tration and the laws and courts decisions governing labor combinations. Local sys- tems of collective bargaining and agree ments between employees, it is stated. have been most highly developed in the building trades, the brewers, boot and shoe, baking, woodworking and metal working trades, some branches of the clothing trade, and in the transportation trade, or in other words. where both enn- ployers and employees are strongest or ganized.
 There is growing movement in favor of collective bargaining, conciliation and arbitration in all organizations of en- ployers and employees covering nearly every industry throughout the country or throughout large sections, where the conditions of business are generally simi- lar. A growing movement is noted to- ward establishing state and local ma chinery for arbitration in the bituminous coal industry where there is now, at least in most of the mining districts, no effective method for disposing of the

simply tackles a bucking broncho. He will not succeed.
 In order that all may know how the President looks at political assess ments levied against men in office we quote what he said in 1895 when he wrote the eleventh annual report of the civil service commissioners, one of whom he was at that time:
 There can. of course, be no more offen- sive coercion than to make a public serv- ant who happens to belong to one party contribute out of his salary for the sue cess of the other party, yet this is ex- actly what is done by this species of blaclSmail, and it must necessarily be the result of allowing contributions to be so- licited from government employees at all. The solicitation is always made by some person standing high in the councils of the party to which the head of the office
 belongs. The men of the opposite party who are in the office feel little nervous about their positions anyhow. They know that the politicians of the party opposed to them grudge them their places and want to turn them out. and they know that in too many cases advantage will be taken of any slight fault or misstep on their part that can serve as an excuse to remove them. They are therefore very anxious not to give offense, and they pay simply with the hope of escaping future trouble. This Is done again and again in all these offices. A law should undoubt- edly be passed to prohibit the soliciting from government employees at all. More over, I believe that postmasters. collec- tors of customs and other public officers should be required to post up in their offices before elections statements to the effect that none of their employees need to contribute a dollar to any party fund and that no man will be jeopardized in any way for refusing to contribute at all or for contributing to any party he liked
 This is good, firm doctrine, and the man who violates it will find that he is up against a man who stands by what he said as firmly as a man can stand in this world. The days of the political assessor, no matter if his name be Mark Hanna, are numbered, at least until 1905, and the chances are that that particular form of cor ruption has received its death blow. It Is contrary to both law and public policy.

MT. Herron's Life.

Twenty years ago Henry Heron was the adored First Lieutenant of the Mont gomery Greys. the most famous of Ala bama's citizen soldiers since the war be- tween the states, and he was connected with that military company for more than thirty years. For over twenty-five years he was in the service of one of the banks in Montgomery.
 "Only year or two ago he retired from the bank because of the close confine- ment and he desired after so many years of industry and toll to rest and recuper- ate his health and enjoy quietly the fruits of his labors' says the Mont gomery Journal. 'IIe had accumulated a good-sized fortune, estimated by friends, of perhaps $40,o0o or $5O,O0O. and after his mothers death few years ago. to whom he was devoted, he had no immediate rel atives living here.
 MT. Heron never married He re- mained single to care for a widowed mother and after her death lived quietly, travelling about occasionally, and only recently returned from Buffalo, where he went to visit the exposition. He re- turned seemingly In good health, and was on the streets only few days before his death.

TO COME INTO ITS LEGACY.

New York Letter In Chicago Tribune.
 By the payment of s25OOOo to the heirs of the late Jacob S. Rogers all litigation in the contest of the will has been brought to satisfactory conclusion. The Metropolitan Museum of Art will In short time come into possession of its legacy of upward of s5,OOo, 900. R. V. Lind abury, who has represented the heirs in the contest, states that out of this set clement all of the heirs who have valid claims will receive their share, the divi- sion of the sum having been privately agreed upon between them.
 Robert w. De Forest, counsel for the museum, gives the following information in regard to the settlement: "The amount paid in settlement was s25O, 900, about 5 not much more that a years normal income on this amount of property.
 "In any case, the amount paid is less than the expense and loss incident to protracted litigation, however successful, and even if family claims have by this settlement been recognized to greater extent than under the will (his legacies to members of his family aggregated $25O, 900. and by this settlement these leg acies are practically doubled) the availa- ble amount of MT.
