Caboose.

Cripple Creek, Colo. Oct. 2S.-The Bryan

freight at Arena, in Brown canyon, fifteen
miles above Leadville, this morning. The

caboose was thrown from the trucks and
three persons saved their lives by jump
Ing.
The freight had pulled in on siding to
let the special pass. The caboose had
not cleared the main line when the spe-

into the caboose. The occupants of the
caboose were warned of their danger in
time to save their lives. Mr.. Bryan was
unfnjured.
The cabcose was demolished and the
track obstlucted so that the special could
not proceed. Mr.. Bryan and his party
were put into an empty refrigerator car
and drawn by a freight engine, taken to
Yathrop, seven miles away. There
chair car was taken from siding and

The Most pespotic of Trusts.

Detroit rec Press (Dem:).
OF all the trusts in the United states
that which controls anthracite coal is the
most absolute and the least responsible.
The Standard Oil Company, while 1t fixes
prices, does not own all the oil fields. 1t
cannot cut off the supply. The Beef
Trust is merely the largest trader in the
market. Millions of pounds of beef are
handled by Independent dealers. The
Steel Trust is only one of many manu-
facturers of iron 1t owns mines and
ships, and is the greatest single manufac-
turer of steel; but if it closed its plants
the country would not be left wthou
steel of any kind The Coal Trust how
ever, is absolute. 1t is perhaps the only
trust that does not owe its existence to
patents, which is absolute. When it
ceases operations not ton of anthracite
coal can be mined. Where it does not
own the mines it controls the transporta-
ton facilities. and its fiat is law. When
1t has nothing to arbitrate there are no
independent concerns that have something
to arbitrate. Competition in respect to
anthracite coal is smothered.
1t is not strange that in the twentieth
century the American people are looking
askance at this industrial relic of the
sixteenth century. II is not surprising
that they are coming to challenge not
only the moral but the legal right of any
body of men to exercise the despotic
powers OF absolute monopoly, no matter
where or how they acquired the titles to
their property

BIG COAL COMBINE
NEGOTIATIONS FOR MERGING
LARGE CONCERNS.
Pittsburg Coal Company and Monon'
gahela River Coal and Coke Com
pany with Capital Of $11o,-
100000 May Unite

Pittsburg. Pa. Oct. 2s.-The Gazette to-
morrow will say:
Negotiations are under way for the
merging of the Pittsburg Coal Company
and the Monongahela River Coal and Coke
Company. with their combined authorized
capital of $4,000 900 and assets Of $780,
0ss,051. Consolidation of these interests
will launch by far the strongest bitumin-
Gus concern in the world. The combined
coal output of the two concerns is close
to 3O.OOO,Oo0 tons a year. The plan is to
make the Pittsburg company lessee and
the purpose to economize operations.
Successful termination of the deal will
end the trade rivalry which has existed
between the two companies. either I'M
der or on the surface.
1.-The negotiations which are now on to
bring the two big companies together are
understood to be between two men. Pres
ident Francis L. Robin of the Pittsburg
Coal Company, and Col. ]. B. Finley,
President of the River Company. The
tentative plan is to merge the two COM
panies and at the same time eliminate
one of the seemingly fundamental princi-
pies of such moves, which is the issu-
ance of a new and increased lot of wa
ter ed stock to more than cover the COM
bined issues of the constituents. While
the Pittsburg Company will probable be-
come the investor interest, there Is no
present purpose to issue new stock of the
Pittsburg Company to take over that OF
the River Company. Anything like
stock watering deal is to be eliminated.
1.-THE total assets of the Pittsburg Com
pany are figured at 1926. 769. and those
of the River Company at 1881 ,s12."

REPLY TO COLOMBIA.
Prompt Answer Made to Latest
Communication.

Washington, Oct. %. sit was learned
today that a prompt answer had been
made by the State Department to the
latest Colombian note respecting the
Panama Canal treaty which was trans
mftted to the department Monday.
Its nature was not divulged, but the
presumption is that it deals almost en-
tirely with Colombia's representations re-
garding the sovereignty of the isthmus
which the Colombians feel has been ser1-
ously invaded by the acts of Commander
Mclean and Admiral Casey in preventing
the prompt movement of troops across
the railroad This matter, as before
stated, Is now the subject OF negotiations
between the Colombian Government and
Minister Hart at Bogota and an early
adjustment is looked for.
'sThe State Department is anxious that
m speedy settlement be reached in order
10 facilitate the completion of the Pana-
ma canal treaty. Mr.. Concha, the Colom-
main Minister. has received ample and
upecifc instructions empowering him TO
proceed in this matter which has been
retarded only by the controversy which
mas arisen regarding the transit across
the isthmus.

NOT YET SETTLED.
Baseball Situation in West a Matter
of Concern.

New York, Oct. 28.-The National Base
ball Board of Arbitration resumed its
sessions today. The board had before 1t
representatives of the Western League
and American Association trying to find
an amicable solution of the difficulty.
Late tonight 1t was announced that the
board had taken an adjournment until
tomorrow without having found any def
mite plan Of settlement.
A fair and proper readjustment of the
territory seems to be the stumbling block.
1t Is explained that the American Assoct-
alton with cities like Louisville, Columbus
and Indianapolis believed that the West
ern League should withdraw its teams
from both Kansas City and Milwaukee.
These are two of the best cities In the
circuit of either organization. Last year
both had rival clubs and financial dis
aster was the result to all hands. The
Western League people are not over
anxious to get out of either Kansas City
or Milwaukee.
The matter may be adjusted by the
American Association taking one of the
cities and the Western League the other.
Each organization would then take in an
additional city to complete the circuit.

New Charter for Chicago.

Chicago, Oct. pa convention OF citi-
gems met today under the auspices of the
Civic Federation to discuss ways and
means of securing for the city of Chicago
a new charter The charter under which
the city now exists has, in the opinion
of the larger number of business men, De
come ineffective for a place OF tne size
to which the city has grown. Inc con-
vention was made up of delegates from
twentv-four different organizations rep
resenting 6.O0O business men of the city.
The meeting today was entirely of pre-
liminary character to determine whether
the desired end could be obtained better
through constitutional amendment of re-
vision. After a long debate 1t was de-
cided that 1t would be better to work for
a revision of the State constitution.

sPALDING PREFERRED.
He or ireland Will Be Made Arch
bishop of Chicago.

Rome, Oct. 2S.-The appointment of an
archbishop of Chicago to fill the vacan-
cy caused by the recent death of Arch
bishop Patrick A. Feehan will be taken
up on the reassembling of the Congrega-
ton of the Propaganda in November. The
election of Bishop John L. Spalding Of
the diacese of Peoria, Ills, is probable,
objections having been received to the
candtdature of Bishop Muldoon, admins
traitor of the archdiocese while Father
Riordan, pastor of st. Elizabeths, Chica-
go is not in good health.
A proposition is current among the Car
dinals composing the congregation, in the
event of Bishop Spaldings's not being
selected for the Chicago archdiocese, to
recommend the transfer there of Arch
bishop Ireland Of st. Paul, the arch
diocese of Chicago being considered more
adapted to Archbishop Irelands activity
