It is a very small thing to do to pay poll tax and register to be allowed to ex- ercise the rights of citizenship in Alaba- ma. All those subject to poll tax who vote must have compiled with these re- quirements of the new Constitution, and it is not too late yet to meet all these requirements. You can register any day next week and pay your poll tax before February l.

INJUNCTION STOPS
GATES ELECTION

Denver, Aug. 21.-Judge Mullins of
the district court issued an ex-parte
injunction yesterday afternoon re-
straining the shareholders of the
Colorado Fuel and Iron company from
holding their annual election of Off
GERS yesterday afternoon. The in
junction was applied for by George
f. Bartlett, who is understood to be
friendly to the Osgood management.
This move came as surprise to the
Gates party and it is supposed to
have been made to forestall any &C
ton which they may have contem-
plated.
The effect of this injunction will be
t. stop the fight until the injunction
is dissolved, either by an answer
made to it or by higher authority
than the district court.
One effect of the injunction, unless
it is dissolved, is to continue Osgood
and the rest Of the present regime in
office until their successors are chos-
en-. The general belief is that a
compromise will spring from the
Bartlett injunction.

WRANGLlNG OVER
TRUST QUESTION

st. Paul, Aug. 21.-The trust ques-
ton was in evidence again yesterday
in the discussions before the trans
Mississippi congress and a number of
resolutions bearing upon it's various
phases were introduced and referred
to the committee on resolutions. Col.
Moses G.. Wetmore of ST. Louis in
troduced series of strong antitrust
resolutions in which he declared the
trusts a menace to a republican form
Of government and to the hopes and
ambitions of youth, and urged the
president to enforce the existing law
against illegal combinations, and if
those laws are insufficient he is asked
to call upon congress to supply the
deficiency. On the other hand, F. B.
Thurber of New York introduced a
resolution. asking congress to sus-
pend judgment until it can be learned
from experience whether or not trusts
are an evil. Thurber's declaration in
his speech that after months OF care
full inquiry and examination he was
able to assert that the sO-called beef
trust was a Pigment of the magma
ton called forth a resolution yester-
day from William Henry Eustis of
Minneapolis asking that this part of
Thurber's address be eXpunged from
the records of congress. The motion
caused a lively debate and was made
a special order for today's session.

later, and SO numerous points Of in
lection may thus arise.
The disease of CHAMBERS is one
which can be readily diagnosed by the
application of what is known as the
mallein test, which is to CHAMBERS
what the tuberculin test is to tuber-
culosis in cattle. But it is manifestly
impossible to apply such a test to
these relatively wild horses, so that
the ordinary physical test must be
used.
The board also elected Dr. Z. D.
Roberts, the state veterinarian, and
DR.. H. L. Russell of Madison to rep

Chicago, ILL.,, Aug. 21.-The cor
Oner's jury has returned verdict that
Minnie Mitchell came to her death by
a bullet wound inflicted by a person
unknown and at a place unknown.
The jury recommended that ThOmp-
son, Claffy and COunselman he held
to the grand jury and that William
Bartholin be apprehended.
Lieut. Healy of the Hyde Park pO-
ice station and w. M. Allen, fellow
workman of Edward Counse1man,
testified before the jury that Counsel
man had told them that Bartholin
asked for $50; that Minnie Mitchell
was in a north side hospital and that
he needed the money to pay for an
operation on her.
The verdict of the coroner's jury
practically leaves any further investi-
cation as to the supposed death of
Minnie Mitchell to the September
grand jury. States Attorney Deneen
will return to the city soon and take
up the charges against Thompson,
Claffy and COunselman.
More tangible results are expected
from the postponed inquest in the case
of Mrs. Bartholin which will be re-
sumed today. For this murder Oscar
Thompson is held as principal and
CounseIman and Claffy as accessories,
although William Bartholin is being

Chicago Murder Mystery Unsolved

sought on suspicion Of matricide as
well as for the murder Of his fiance.
When the coroner's inquiry into the
death of the woman whose body was
found on the prairie Aug. Z is re
sumed evidence to show that it was
not the body of Minnie Mitchell, Will
liam j. Bartholin's sweetheart, will
be produced.
Following the testimony given by
members of the MITCHELL family the
report of DR.. Joseph Springer, coron-
ers physician, will bring grave
doubt as to whether the body buried
by the parents of the missing girl as
their daughter was really hers.
Should Dr. Springer's report be
given the credence which Psychologists
say it deserves, all the theories Of the
police will be proved false. Nearly
all the evidence found thus far has
led to the belief that Minnie Mitchell
was killed in the BarthOlin home and
her body taken to the prairie IN Oscar
ThOmpsOn's laundry wagon.
The father, the brother, the sister
and the sister-in-law of Minnie Nit
chen admitted that they had not
looked at the body Of the woman
whom they buried as member OF
their family. They said they were
positive of the Identification because
of the clothing found near the body.

Wilmington, Del, Aug. 2l-Eight
workmen are known to have been
killed, six are missing and three
others were badly injured by the eX-
plosion of two steel digesters in the
Delaware pulp mills of the Jessup q
Moore paper company on Christian
river Yesterday afternoon. The known
dead are Frank Harris, William
Burke, James Maggie, John McCor-
mick. Zachariah Collins (colOred),
James Stokes, JOS. Jumbacher, Gran
Vile Waters and Joseph Henry; the
missing: William Scott Joel Hutton,
William Ruth, fireman; E. H. MOulsey
and James Sweeney; the injured;
Thorn. Reeves, skull fractured, two
places, may die; James Lester, badly
burned, recovery doubtful; John Col
Inns, burned and inhaled flames;
George Durham, burned and scalded,
recovery doubtful.
The digesters were used for reduc-
ing wood pulp. Eighteen men were at
work in the building. There were two
terrific reports and the next instant
the buildings were completely
wrecked. Several workmen were taken
out of the building unconscious only
to die after being taken to hospitals,
The wreckage piled up in height more
than 80 feet and escaping steam made
the work of rescue difficult.
Those not killed outright were man
gled and burned by the escaping acid
that flowed over their bodies from the
broken digesters. To add to the hor-
ror of the disaster the wreckage took
fire but after some difficulty the fire
department subdued the flames and
the work of rescue continued.
Officers of the company think that
too much steam was generated in the
digesters and that that was the cause
OF the explosion.

action of Manuel Diaz, secretary OF

The President of certain big Oil Com
pany is said to be worth $500, 900, 900. A
tidy bit of money and no mistake. And
yet he isn't happy. In an address to Bible
class he spoke of trials and troubles of the
rich and the loads they have to barry. A
young lady whispered to friend that he
might wear Benson's Porous Plaster on his
back or, better still, divide the money among
the members of the class. don't know
why her idea about the plaster makes me
want to laugh, but it does. Al the same
have seen plenty of people laugh after
putting Benson's Plasters on their backs
or chests, or on any other spot where there
was weight, heaviness, weakness or pain.

CANAL SCHEME DEAD
Assembly Committee Will
Not Report Davis Bill.
GOVERNOR ODELL NOT DISCOURAGED
He Thinks Improvement Legislation
VIII Not he Abnndoncd-An Ex-
ira Session Is Not Likely
TO lie Called.

ALBANY, n. Y, March 26.-Govern-
or Odell said last night in discussing
the canal Improvement situation:
Il have done all that | could to get
the legislature to take action on the
Davis bill, which provides for the ex.
penditure of S31 100000 for the i'm
provement of the Erie and Champlain
canals, but the cause seems hopeless.
The advocates of canal Improvement
held two conferences with me today,
the last late this afternoon, at which |
told them that hhd seen Speaker Nix
on, chairman of the assembly rules
committee. and that he had said that il
was impossible to get the committee to
report the Davis bill. The canal men
went away feeling that nothing will be
done this year in the way of legislation
in the line of canal Improvement They
gave me final answer refusing to ac-
cept the alternative referendum pro
posed as a compromise. They asked me
to call an extra session of the legisla-
ture to consider and dispose of the ca
nal Improvement problem, but that |
refused to do, as | could not see what
good it would do in view of the position
which the assembly has taken.
My position on canal legislation has
not changed. | recommended in my
annual message an improvement prof.
ect, which was subsequently embodied
in the Davis bill That recommenda-
ton was made after conference with
the leaders of the legislature, who at
that time favored the proposition AS
the session advanced opposition devel-
oped, eliminating in the situation
which at present exists"
Governor Odell was asked whether in
view of the failure of two legislatures
to pass improvement legislation 1t
meant an abandonment OH the part of
the state of any improvement of the
canals. He replied:
II certainly do not. Great projects of
this character sometimes take years to
develop You have an illustration of
that in the years il has taken congress
to dispose of the isthmian canal prob
lem"
The action of the assembly in not
passing the canal bill is held by the ad-
vocates of the improvement to be caus-
ed mainly by the position taken by the
fourteen representatives of Albany,
Rensselaer,. Onondaga and Monroe
counties in voting against the Weekes
bill, which included the Oswego canal
wiInin the scope of the proposed inn
provement
Mayor Lows bills have passed the
assembly. The employers liability bill
and the Pennsylvania tunnel bill have
passed the senate.
