CHICAGO, Nov. 2s-Present indications

the immigrant traffic.
The traffic men OF the passenger depart
ments Of the western lines today met Mr..
Wadleigh and Mr.. Mcleod Of the Western
Passenger association in an effort to reach
a settlement The meeting was called be-
cause of the impression that arbitration
could be brought about or the lines inter
ested could be induced to dip bit deeper
into their pockets and give the Rock Island
the recognition for it's Ell Paso line which
Mr.. Sebastian thinks 1t should have.
II is understood that the Rock Island is
standing out for 10 per cent Of the revenue
between Kansas City and Ell Paso. but all
its officials except Mr.. Sebastian are said
to be willing to leave the matter to arbi-
tration.
When the conference met II found that
the Southern Pacific was unwilling to sub
NIT to arbitration, and some of the lines
did not care to contribute a sufficient
amount Of their present shares to make up
the percentage demanded The Santa Fe is
also said to be adverse to arbitration.
committee was appointed, consisting of
Mr.. Sebastian. passenger traffic manager Of
the Rock Island; George T. Nicholson of the
Santa Fe and e. o. Mccormick OF the South

reach a common basis, and report to the

COIOmBIans Are Defeated.
CREW OF SHIP MAY BE SAFE
Nothing Definite known, However, of
s F4te Of steamer BannOck-
= '' burn.

MONTREAL, Nov. 2s-News from va
rious sources here today from the miss-
ing steamer Bannockburn has inspired the
hope that its crew of twenty men may be
ashore somewhere on the mainland north
OF Michicopen Isle. While some doubt
still exists the company ofneials are con-
hdent that the crew escaped, although
Bannockburn is believed to be a wreck.
The first news came in the form OF a
telegram from Chicago. stating that Ban
nookburn was ashore on the mainland north
Of Michicopen Island. There was great re-
joicing here and at Kingston, where most
Of the crew halls from. A later dispatch
from Sault Ste. Marie cast some doubt on
the news from Chicago. II was stated that
the steamer Strathcona had passed within
four miles OF the island, but saw nothing
OF the wreck 1t was pointed out by the
steamship Ofhcials, however. that while the
500 dispatch stated that Bannockburn was
not ashore on the island. the other advices
were to the effect that the boat was ashore
on the mainland, directly north OF the
island. 1t would be possible for q vessel
to pass TO the south OF the island without
sighting the wreck. later message from
the Chicago agents Of the company stated
that the wreck had been sighted by the
Canadian steamer Germanic.

Court.

ST. PETERSBURG. Nov. 2s.-It is ofhci

only power that has replied to the Russian
note regarding the sugar conference. Great
Britain's reply hoped that the Russian

to the Brussels convention, but II not
Great Britain would be compelled to impose
a retalistory duty on Russian sugar, pro-
vided that the international commission de-
cided that a sugar bounty exists in Russia
The Russian government has replied de-
claring that such action would be an In
fringement Of the Anglo Russian CONNER
cial treaty Of 1859. That, 1t did not take
part in the Brussels conference because
II wished to assure itself full freedom to
adopt domestic measures for the regulation
Of the Russian sugar industry.

ment Of the Anglo-Saxon commercial treaty
rs a dangerous precedent for the regulated
development Of international relations be-
tween friendly nations.
The reply concludes by Offering to submit
the question Of sugar and all other goods
to The Hague arbitration court.

HEAR BLACK FRANCHISE CASE
Circuit Court Listens to Plea to In
validate Constitution of
Virginia.

RICHMOND. Va, NOV, 2s.@The case
brought on behalf Of colored complaInants
to restrain the State Board of Canvassers
from issuing certificates Of election to
members Of congress elected in the last
election and invalidate the new Virginia
constitution began In the United States cir
cult court this afternoon.
Mr.. Wise opened for the complainants.
His contention that the constitution was
vitiRted by the refusal Of the members
OF the committee to take the oath led the
chief justice to ask II the convention was
not a convention de facto. To the argument
that the eomplainants we're without rem
edy a. to certain matters, the chief justice
asked II Virginia did not have a supreme
court.
One OF Mr.. Wise's main contentious was
that the convention had no power to pro-
claim the constitution. Mr.. Christian, in
his reply for the commonwealth, devoted
himself largely to the question of the right
OF proclamation, combating Mr.. wise's 8
contention.

cents, except that the rate on export grain
consigned to a vessel = advanced from 131a

on Plea of Selling sheep, Then
They Bind, Rob and
Leave Him.

RAwLINs, wyo.. Nov. 2s.-(special)-
A. II. Bree, employed by the Flato Com
mission company of South Omaha, was
found in a railroad cut west Of town yes
terday morning.
His feet were badly frozen and he had
been without food since Sunday noon. He
was taken TO the state hospital at Rock
Springs, where both legs will probably
be amputated.
Bree tells an almost incredible story, but
his appearance certainly bears out his
statement. He says he arrived In Rawlins
Friday from his home in South Omaha.
Sunday he met three men who said they had
a bunch of sheep three miles from town
that they would sell cheap.
Bree accompanied them to the place, but
the sheep were not to be found. One of
the men suggested they sit down on rock,
eat lunch and rest and then continue the
search for the flock. Bree assented and re-
members nothing that occurred OTTER he
partook OF the lunch.
He regained consciousness during the
snow storm Of Tuesday night. His feet
were so badly frozen that he could not
stand and he was almost famlshed. With
the lights Of the town as a guide he started
to crawl the three miles. All night he
kept up the snail-like pace over the snow
covered ground, his hands and knees torn
and bleeding. At daylight he crawled into
the railroad cut and was seen by the section
men who brought him in.
When Bree went out on the prairie with
the three strangers he. carried $3.50 in his
pockets. but when he awoke from his Ions
sleep the money was gone. The authorities
are satisfied the strangers doped Bree. stole
the money and left him on the prairie tc
die. There is not a single clue to the
identity OF the would-be murderers.
