MAY CHANGE ROADS COURSE.
Northern Pacific May Build North Of
Lake Pend d'OreiIie.

Missoula, June Ga gentleman who
has been visiting in Spokane and
Hope, and who is spending a few days
in this city, stated this afternoon that
the Northern Pacific may within a
few months, or may not until next
year, change it's course near Lake
Pend d'Oreille. The present course
is to the south of the lake, and a sur
vey is to be made to the north of 1t.
It is also said that the company has
ordered a line surveyed to the north
of the lake, and that it will be done
at once The point at which the line
leaves the main line is west of where
the track crosses the Clark's Fork, and
will run along the bank Of the lake to
where it catches the main line again
that runs into Spokane. If the COM
pany decides to lay the track on this
line it will cut off at least Is or 20
miles and will be about as pretty a
route as the road now has. Another
thing that would be of advantage to
the read is that it would not have to
cross the big iron trestle that is now
being erected over the Clark's Fork.

BETTER THAN MARcoNrs.

Is Claimed.

OSS wv SsV0S SuPSJbVUbSy
Is Claimed.
New York, June GA new system
OF wireless telegraphy, which it is as
serted is far superior to the Marconi
system, will soon enable the public
to send messages as quickly as by
wire telegraph. The initial station in
this city is in the Chesbrough build
ing, and on the top of the building
the apparatus for sending and receiv-
ing messages have been installed. The
system is Of American invention, the
work of e. H. Smythe Of Chicago, and
Lee de Forest, a graduate of Yale uni
versity.
The system differs radically from
that Of Marconi, as messages can be
sent and received as rapidly as the
operator can work, the speed of forty
words a minute having already been
attained. Distinct messages have been
received over a distance of Is miles.

New York, June AT a meeting Of

presiding, resolutions we're adopted
urging President Roosevelt to appoint

to see if the miners and operators
could not be induced to arbitrate their

a view of effecting an arbitration of
the differences between the miners
and operators. 1t is said that the

suggestion. 1t is intimated in official
circles that if a commission is ap-
pointed the president will look to
Senator Hanna to undertake the task.

A Journal reporter read to General
Miles a special dispatch saying that
he vas suspected in the white house
of having furnished the details of the

answer as full as one could make,
and as explicit as Senator Beveridge
or any one could demand"
"But, for yourself, General?"
II repeat that Senator Culberson
seems to have made the reply for

Hone for Settlement.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, June 5.-The eff
forts Of the striking miners today
were turned toward the white house al
Washington.
A new hope has arisen in the breasts
of the men that the president of the
United States at the suggestion OF
the New. York Board of Trade may
take up the task of attempting to
bring miners and mine owners to.
gether.
Mine workers about headquarters
feel that the great coal companies can.
not turn a deaf ear to the chief mag
istrate and that if he can be prevailed
on to step into the breach it is not i'm.
possible the operators would recede
from the stand they have taken.
The miners stand willing to arbi.
trate.
President Mitchell had nothing to
say when approached on the new move
to have the president take a hand in
the settlement of the strike.
The coal companies continue to- lose
engineers. firemen and pumpmen.
Many Of the men quitting now are do
ing SO from a fear of bodily harm.
Reports come into Wilkesbarre al
most hourly of men on their way to or
from the mines being attacked.
The attacking parties in most cases
are boys and young men, and their
favorite method is throwing stones.
Several men have been hurt, but
as yet no serious injuries have been
inflicted upon anyone.
The entire Wyoming alley is very
quiet today.
