Denver, Col, Nov. 1.-THE Denver
chamber Of commerce and board OF
trade sent President Roosevelt Satur.
day a letter concerning the depend
ence Of the beet sugar industry upon
the Dingley tariff. The petitioners
represent that at least ten years are
needed to put the beet sugar industry
upon basis which will be strong
enough to enable it TO compete with
thee sugar product raised by cheap
labor. They say the beet sugar in
dustly is the first and only industry
in the west in which the farmers and
producers are directly interested
which has received the benefit Of
American policy Of protecting infant
industries.

GAMBLING HOUSE HELD UP.
Ono Bandit Killed and Another Wounded
at NacO, an Arizona Border TOwn-Ex-
citing Chase After the Robbers.

Los Angeles, Cal, Nov. a special
from Phoenix, Ariz, says: One bandit
killed and one wounded was the result
Of an attempt by three masked rob-
bers to hold up the gambling house
Of Deel & Co., Thursday night at
Naco, a small but tough Arizona Dor.
der town. The dead bandit has been
identified as Will Cravens, OF Dog
Springs, N. M. A group Of game
sters and loungcrs pointed theii
hands toward the sky when the des-
peradoes entered the saloon at late
hour and abruptly demanded Hands
up" Cravens approached the roulette
table and proceeded to fill bag with
the bank roll, amounting to several
thousand dollars. Z. Ellis whipped
out revolver before a movement
was detected by the robbers and
Cravens fell dead when he shot. The
other bandits were demoralized ani
fed in disorder. One of them wal
wounded by another bullet from El
lis revolver. They reached theil
horses, which were hitched in the
brush, and rode for the mountains
closely followed by posse which had
been hastily organized. The chase
was exciting, the pursuers coming
so close to the robbers several timel
that shots were exchanged. The rob
bers have fair chance OF making
their way into the mountains, but
the trailers may dislodge them aftel
a fight.

The Military Convict Now In Fort Leaven-
worth. Kan. 10 to Have Rehearing
In q Civil Tribunal

Chicago, Nov. 7.-Oberlin N. Carter,
now convict in the government pris-
ON at Fort Leavenworth, Kan, and
formerly captain in the United
States engineer corps, is to have q
rehearing Of his case in civil tribu-
nal. He now has the assurance OF the
government authorities that oil evil
dence is to be reviewed again before
Judge Kohlsaat in the United States
circuit court in this city, the hearing
to take place, probably, in a few
months. Carter will be called as
witness in his own behalf, and for
the purpose of testifying in court he
will be released temporarily from his
place Of confinement.
This is the result of the suits
brought by the government some
months ago in several federal courts
for the purpose Of recovering the
proceeds of $722,5s2, which it was
proved at the court-martial that Car
ter had embezzled from the United
States. His uncle, Lorenzo D. Carter,
and his brother, I. Stanton Carter,
were said to have reinvested this
money and secreted it for the pur'
pose of having a fortune ready for
the former army officer upon his re-
lease from the military prison.
This agreement was filed in the
United States circuit court yesterday,
signed by Marion Erwin, special as
sistant attorney general for the
United States, and Attorney Stone for
Carter, his brother and his uncle.
The principal provision made in this
stipulation is that the issues in all
the similar suits now pending in the
federal courts of New York, New Jer-
sey, Georgia, West Virginia and the
Southern district OF Illinois shall be
united with the case in the federal
court in Chicago. The examination
of witnesses is to be held here, either
before Judge Kohlsaat or a master in
chancery to be named by him. After
full examination, the ownership Of
the bonds and other securities Of Car
ter, which the government claims al
Its property, will be determined BY
the court The decision in this court
will affect the standing OF the caseI
in all the other cases similarly.

GIVEN UP FOR LOST.

PHILADELPHIA, March 29.-The
Norwegian steamer Krim, the schoon-
er Florence and the British auxiliary
bark Severn have practically been
given up as lost. The crews of these
vessels aggregate ifty-four men, and
all are believed to have been drowned.
The hrim, Captain Irjues, sailed from
this port January 18th for Vera Cruz,
with a cargo Of 200 tons of coal.
Under ordinary conditions she should
have reached her destination in about
ten days. Since clearing the Della
ware breakwater nothing has been
heard of her. The bark Severn, Cap
tain Reed, sailed from Philadelphia
for Baltimore and Hampton Roads
last September and left that port for
Santos. She has not since been re-
ported. The schooner Florence fcor-
rect) Captain Chandler, left Port OF
Spain for Philadelphia January 10

UNPLEASANT.

That was an interesting episode at
the Office of the City Water Board,
last evening, arising out of the fact
that a very prominent city official paid
his delinquent taxes to the wrong per-
son, and yet came within one of rec
ognizing the new Board a. the real
thing. The Register sympathizes to a
certain extent with the official in ques-
ton, as he was placed in a very awk-
ward position. If he paid the new
Board he would recognize it, and
if the old, as he did, his daily supply
of the aqueous fluid must inevitably be
cut of-which latter is exactly what
happened. The dilemma was one ugly
in every respect, and either horn was
an unpleasant proposition for the indi-
vidual concerned.

AN INTERESTING COMPARISON.

AN LIN
In the present threatened crisis 1t is
interesting to make a comparison of
the army and navy of Japan and Rus
STA.
AS to the armies of these two en-
pires in times of peace, Russia has
SS3,416 men with the colors, and
japan $780, 00. The Russian war
strength is Sab, 300, while that of
Japan is but 4O2,274. The Russian
army can muster ZIP guns in its field
artillery; Japan but 746.
AS to the respective navies, Russia
has twenty-three battlesh!ps, and Japan
but eight, although one of the latter is
the largest and best fighting ship in
the world. OF cruisers, Russia has
ifty-ive and Japan thirty-three. OF
torpedo boats. Russia has two hundred
and %thirty-four and Japan ninety
eight.
This makes out, at first glance, a
great discrepancy, and yet it is by no
means a hopeless case. For instance,
many of Russia's ships of war are in
northern European waters or in the
Black sea, almost hopelessly removed
from the scene of operations, in case
of war, in the far east; and likewise
not over $50, 900 Of her soldiers could
possibly reach the eastern shores of
the Pacific short of six months after
the opening of hostilities, whereas.
Japan, with her various arms Of the
service compactly held at home, could
easily overwhelm Russia both on sea
and land at the outset, and meet rein
forcements as fast as they arrived
either by land or sea upon practically
equal terms. In such a war as that so
lately threatened, Russia would be at
an immense disadvantage because of
the remoteness of her undoubtedly
great from the scene of con-
fict, and Japan would have a CORE
spending advantage because the scenes
of battle would be near her coast, and
within a few days reach by her fleets
and transports. Any contest between
these two powers, therefore, would be
by no means an unequal one, for the
Japanese are fighters, and have per-
haps the most perfect military and
naval equipment in the world. 1t
it is to be sincerely hoped, will be
averted.

AN EASY WAY TO A BENEFIT.

1t is the contention of Senator Mark
Hanna and those OF his poltlcal
friends who stand with him for a ship
subsidy that the necessity for govern
mental aid to ship owners lies in the
fact that it costs a great deal more to
build ships in this country than it does
abroad. and that, once built and in SER
vice, they must compete with the
cheaply built ships of other nations.
That the cost of building in this
country is greater than abroad is true.
but Mr.. Hanna and his fellow would
be beneficiaries omit to say why it Is
true, and the why is important, and
the cause the creature of Mr.. Hanna
and his political party.
That American built ships cost more
than, for instance, those constructed in
England, is almost entirely due to the
fact that we have a high protective
tariff that enables our manufacturers
of iron and steel to obtain an extor-
tionate price for products sold in this
country, while permitting them to sell
abroad at a figure below the cost of
production abroad. Putting it differ
emily, they squeeze the American ship
builder to the ultimate notch, and
then proceed to do HIM injury by sell
ing the same essentials on the other
side of the sea at a price from five to
ten dollars per ton cheaper, still max
ing a profit. This operates to keep up
the cost of American ships and keep
down the cost of ships built abroad,
coming into competition with our own,
and the alleged remedy is-a bounty,
the effect of which would simply be to
enable American ship owners to be
better equipped to pay their construc-
ton bills, at the cost of the people of
the nation.
1t is a pretty, but, unfortunately, a
transparent, scheme, and one that will
never have the approval Of the people
of this country, once it is thoroughly
understood.

the biscuit ware house at the Goodwin pot
terry. quit work, making the claim that

said If this trouble is not adjusted by Mon
day, every pottery here will be shut down
according to an agreement that exists
between the manufacturing potters at
this place, who have posted a forfeit
of $1,000 a kiln in good faith that they will
stay with each other In time of trouble.
A meeting of the manufacturers was held
in the Potters' Club, this evening. when
these matters were fully discussed. Over
