DELAYS SET IN.
Stratton Will Case Has Begun
in Usual Way.

Colorado Springs. Colo, Sept 3o--An
annoying delay occurred today in the
fight over the Stratton millions. Judge
Orr of the county court cited the execu-
tors to appear before him at oclock
this morning and show cause why they
would not turn over the estate to the
three administrators appointed by him
several daJs ago. At the stipulated hour
none of the executors had appeared but
in their stead N s. Mandy. junior coun-
sci, came into court for the executors
and Karl c. SCHUYLER for the adminis-
trtors. Judge Orr ordered a continuance
of the case until 2 O'Clock.
In the meantime the leading counsel
for both sides held a joint conference
in the private rooms of Judge Orr, be-
hind closed doors, the interview lasting
two hours and up to the noon hour
nothing was given out as. to the pro-
gramme decided upon. Feeling ran high
this morning when it was reported that
the executors would be lodged in jais
for contempt of court, but abated upon
hearing the order of Judge Orr contin-
uing the case until this afternoon.

Annual Report Of the New York
Immigration Commissioner.

New York. Sept. 30.-The annual re-
port of the commissioner of immigra-
ton, at this port, William Williams, was
fled today with the secretary of the
treasury, and in the document the COM
missioner criticises withoUkzreserve con-
ditions that surrounded the landing of
immigrants at Ellis Island during the
ten months previous to the change of
administration there due to Mr.. Will
Jams appointment. He says in the re-
port:
1.-The chief inspector was allowed to
arbitrarily mark the word hold against
the name of any immigrant on the
manifest thus causing to be brought to
him certain picked people to be dis
posed of as he thought BEST instead of
allowing them to be inspected in the
regular way The fact that most of
those so marked are shown to have had
fair amounts of money and that many
so markedswere able bodied people with
very large amounts of money, ARE points
not without interest. The power, first

advanced to 90c. around which figure
there was considerable selling and de-
cline to S8c followed. Later the shorts
again renewed their efforts to cover and
the price rose in five minutes from 80 to
95 cents.

members of the Board of Trade today
filed petition asking for temporary
Injunction against Armour & Co, J. J.

ers to prevent what is technically
known as the endorsing down of mar
gins" This is practically the same ac-
ton as was asked for IN the recent corr
ner in oats. The cause of the petition
was the cornering of September wheat
by one or two local houses.

POWER Cut OFF,.
New Orleans Must Go Rack to
Mule Cars.
Electric Line Men Refuse to Re-
pair the Lines.


New Orleans, Sept. 3o.-Nearly the entire
police force of New Orleans was concen-
trated this morning at the Arabella barn
of the New Orleans Street Railway COM
pany, with the expectation that there
would be trouble when the company at
tempted to run the cars today.
1t was ascertained, however that the
power connecting. all but one of the cir
cults in this barn with the outside lines
has been cut off.
The cutting of of the power will not
prevent the running of cars in the lower CT
business part of the city, but if any cars
are moved in other sections of New Or
leans today, mules probably will be used.
The electric Iinemen in the employ of the
railway company who went out on a SYM
pathetic strike yesterday, refuse to re-
pair the break in the supply wire.
A mail car made trip down Canal
street today with mail carriers aboard.
No passenger car has moved since Sum

conveyances are seen on the street for &C

TAKEN UP AT WASHINGTON.
Conference on Coal Situation. Held at
Temporary White House.

Washington. Sept. 30--The coal strike
and the situation that has resulted from
it was the subject of a conference held
at the temporary white house today in
which the president. Attorney General
Knox. Secretary Moody, Postmaster
Massachusetts,, participated. Everyone
connected with the conference was very
reticent but 1t is learned that the presi
dent is much concerned over the situa-
tion, the near approach of winter and
the great scarcity of fuel. Just what
action can be taken is not known. The
fact that a move has been made in the
appointed for the coal companies was
discussed, but the legal view was that
this was entirely inadequate and would
not be likely to relieve the situation.
The impression prevails that one reason
for the hurried visit of Secretary Root

men of that city the situation with a
view tc bringing the strike to an end
The conferees met again about two

The second conference lasted less than

fused to make any statement when they
came from the presidents room.
