NOT TRAIN RoBBER HANKS.
Man Arrested at Neihart Has a Good
Reputation.

Especial to Inter Mountain.)
Great Falls, Nov. 2S.-Robert Collins,
arrested at Neihart Tuesday night on
suspicion that he was o. c. Hanks, one
of the principals in the Great Northern
holdup July 8, was brought to this city
this afternoon.
He has been recognized by several
persons, among them j. c. E. Barker and
County Attorney Gormley as an. old
timer in Northern Montana ,and as a
man who has always borne a good repu-
tation. He is not Hanks.
1t is believed that he can prove an alibi
that he was at Utica July 3, and for sew
eral days preceding and after that. and
that on July 4 he won horse race at
that place. He is also said to have cashed
a check at the Utica Mercantile company
on July 8, the day of the robbery. He
does not resemble Hanks in any partic-
ular, nor does he resemble any of the
descriptions Of the men furnished by
Pinkerton.
The matter Of his identity will be thor
oughly established on the arrival this
afternoon of Express Messenger Smith,
who was on the looted train.

NO DANGER OF EARLY sUBSI-
DENCE OF PRESENT TRADE.
SUPPLY NOT Meeting DEMAND
Capacity Of Blast Furnaces and Works
completed and New Building. WIN
Nesded--ludicat1ons Good
For Coming Year.
(By Associated Press.)

New York, Nov. 2S-Discussing the
present condition of the iron trade, the
Iron Age says nothing has occurred to
indicate any danger Of an early SUBJ
sidence of the great activity which
characterized the iron and steel trades
Not only is there more iron and steel
being made in the United States than in
any previous time in the history of this
or any other country, but the trade is
beginning to prophesy better trade COM
ing.
The future capacity of the blast fur
naces and the steel works completed
and in process of erection seems to be
especially needed, to meet the require
ments of the country for the first six
months of 1902. This is as far as Or
dinary human foresight can carry prog
nosticatiOns as to business.
1t Is seldom that indications for an
approaching year point so strong to
heavy trade as at the present time.
Many branches of trade report an un-
usual number of questions coming up
relative to materials for projected i'm
provements.
1t may be assumed in view of the oc-
currences of the past two years that the
expansion in the American trade had
reached its elimination, but so far no
evidence can be seen pointing to such a
conclusion. Further, the Iron Age
says:
An active condition of business con-
tinues in iron, and stocks at furnaces
are beginning to be steadily diminish
ing. The furnaces are handling their
business conservatively. and while they
have made some light advances. are dis
posed to discourage anything which
might lead to speculation. More busi-
ness has been done in foreign billets for
importation.
While manufacturing establishments
are trying to break records in endeav-
oring toAmeet the demands of the trade.
they are harassed by the occurrences
which interfere with satisfactory oper-
atiOns. The coke situation has not i'm
proved as 1t should have done this time
and blast furnaces are being crippled by
inability to secure fuel.
A rather critical condition is being re-
ported from Chicago. where four fur
naces are idle on this account, Just
when their production is greatly needed
The steel situation is attracting
great deal of interest. Rolling mills on
one side and dealers on the other ap-
pear to be arranging their forces for a
contest, and both parties are endeavor-
ing to control the trade in their specia-
interests. The situation is shrouded in
mystery. but 1t is expected that devel-
Opment will shortly be made as the re-
suit OF meetings which are taking place.

NAVAL CONSTRUCTION BOARD
SPECIFIES ARMoR, ETC.
TO CARRY TWELVE-INCH GUNS
Wall Have Turrets Forward and Aft
Recommendations for Two Armored>
Cruisers Torpedo Tubes Entirely
Eliminated.
(By Associated Press.)


e Washington, Nov. 2S.-The naval board
of construction has completed the recon-
mendations, called for by congress, rela-
tive to the new battleships and two ar
technical questions which have arisen
as to naval architecture, armor, bat
teries, turrets, etc.
The recommendations as to battleships
call for two ships Of 10000 tons each
and two armored cruisers of 14,500 tons
each. The battleships are to be heavily
armored and to carry the following bat
teries: Four 12-inch guns, in two tur-
rets, forward and aft; eight 8-inch guns,
In four separate turrets; II 7-inch guns;
20 A-pounders and a large number of
auxiliary machine guns.
The armored cruisers are to have an
armament, making them in effect bat
tleships, as follows: Four 10-inch guns
with two turrets forward and aft; 16
7-inch guns; 20 14-pounders and the
usual compliment of small guns in the
secondary battery
Neither the battleships nor cruisers has
superpoised turrets.
The torpedo tubes are also entirely
eliminated from these plans. The rec
concentrations of the board favor an
abandonment of torpedoes on heavy ar
mored ships, leaving the torpedo war;
fare to be carried on by torpedo boats
and the smaller cruisers.
. Recommendations are made against
the sheathing of ships and upon other
technical questions.

ARMY AND NAVY FOOTBALL
TEAMS TO MEET SATURDAY.
PRESIDENT WILL SEE GAME
West Point and Annapolis Pigskin
Chasers Will Play on franklin
Field-Great Demand for
Invitations.
(By Associated Press.)

Philadelphia, Nov. 2S.-Preparations
for the army and navy football game
on Franklin Field on Saturday, which
will be witnessed by President Roose-
velt, are nearing completion. Never in
the history of football in this city, has
there been such a great demand for
tickets.
All those who will see the game will
be guests Of either the University of
Pennsylvania or the Academies, no
tickets being sold for the contest. Fol-
lowing its customs of the past two
years the university rendered Franklin
Field as neutral ground for the con-
test. Pennsylvania bears the entire ex-
pense. The university retains about
10000 tickets and the West Point Acad-
emies distribute the remainder of the
$4,000 cards of admission.
The enormous demand for tickets this
year Is due to the announcement that
the president will attend the game. The
university authorities say that appli-
cations for tickets from Pennsylvania
have been fully 10000 above the sets at

President Roosevelt will be here Sat-
urday morning accompanied by 6. number
Of other government officials. The
party will be escorted to the grounds
by army and navy officers. =.
During the first half of the contest,
the president will sit with the follow
ers of the Academies and during the ten
minutes intermission between the
halves he will be escorted across the
field and will occupy a seat with the
sympathizers of the other academy for
the remainder of the game.
The president will return to Washing
ton Immediately after the contest.

and 1t was towed to the Seneca side
track.
Although Engineer Strong Of the east
bound limited saw the light of the ap-
preaching train while five miles away
and down a straight track, he did not
check his speed, because, as he said, he
supposed No. 13 was waiting on side
track at Sand Creek.
Engineer Strong Talks.
After reaching Detroit today Strong
said:
II read my orders that I was to stop
at Sand Creek, and evidently the other
crew read theirs to stop at Seneca.
Il know that there We're foIs' os us
that read my orders the same way-the
fireman, the conductor, brakeman and
myself.
II lost my orders in the confusion of
the wreck, but the records will show
what they were and what the other
crews orders were.
when first saw the headlight Of the
other train I was far enough away,
presume to have stopped, but you UNDER
stand how it is with these electric head
lights-you cannot tell anything about
how far away they are.
II was on a straight-away track, and
I thought they were waiting for me at
Sand Creek. They doubtless thought we
were stopped at Seneca, and SO both Of
us came on at full speed.
Fifty Miles an Hour.
I'VE must have been running SO miles
an hour. When we saw they were on
top Of us I saw must jump. There was
a bridge right ahead, and did not want
to fall in that, SO waited until we were
past, and then fell.
There was only slight enbankment,
and the crash came right after let go.
I rolled fully three rods. When came
to. there was my engine on one side Of
me and the trucks of the second car,
which was telescoped, on the other.'
Superintendent Burns today said that
Engineer Strong of No. 4 was RESPONSE
BILE.
His ORDERS" said he, clearly ordered
him to pass No. 13 at Seneca. He evil
IDENTIFY forgot them, for he did not stop
there, and the collision resulted"
Superintendent Burns estimated the
financial loss to the Wabash at $4,000.
The three engines piled themselves in
an indiscriminate heap, with the leading
engine on top of the others.
Mass Of Debris.
The first three coaches of the train
were so telescoped that they were moth

car was compressed into a compass
about eight feet In length on the track.
The flames started below the emigrant
car, and here the heaviest loss of life
occurred. 1t being estimated that about
oo persons, men. women and children,
were moved down iby the holocaust.
The loss in the rest of the train was
not heavy, the shock being borne by the
forward cars.

an accommodation car. This was stout
