A PUEBLO TRAGEDY.
Frederick Roberts of Salt Lake City
Wounds Mrs. Cooper and Kills
Himself.

Pueblo. Colo, Oct. 30.-While in
fit of insane jealousy Frederick Rob
erts of Salt Lake City held Mrs. Min
ME Cooper in his arms while he fired
a bullet into her left temple, and then,
placing the revolver at his own right
temple, sent bullet into his brain,
which ended his life instantly. The
tragedy occurred at 11:22 o'clock this
morning at the corner of Ninth street
and Santa Fe avenue, close to the
fashionable residence section OF the
city. Mrs. Cooper was not killed by
the bullet, but is lying at the Pueblo
sanitarium in precarious condition.
After being shot she staggered for a
few steps until assistance reached her,
when she was able to walk to her
boarding house, one block distant.
There were but few witnesses to
the affair and these tell stories that
conflict somewhat with Mrs. Cooper's
statement. The story of incidents
leading to the shooting is rather long
and complicated and dates from Mrs.
Cooper's residence in Salt Lake City
before she came to Pueblo. about one
wear ago. She had recently obtained
a divorce from Charles E. Cooper, and
Roberts was named as a correspondent
at the trial. which was very sensa-
tional. The court still has in custody
the nine-year-old daughter and both
parents have made strenuous efforts
to get possession of her.

ERUPTIoNs IN GUATEMALA
Entire Coffee Zone Destroyed and
Lives Threatened by Action
of Volcano.

Washington. Oct. 30.-A cablegram
was received to-day from Consul Cen
eral McNally of interest in connection
with the isthmus canal project, relat-
ing, as 1t does. to the volcanic condi-
tions in Central America.
He reports that the eruption of the
volcano at Santa Maria, adjoining
Quesaltenango continues; that the city
is covered with six inches of volcanic
matter; rich coffee plantations on the
coast side are buried under seven feet
of sand ard ashes from the volcano and
that detonations from the eruption
were heard in the capital. There have
been frequent earthquakes and another
eruption is reported in the department
of Tombador. Much excitement pre-
walls.
San Francisco, Oct. 30.-The entire
coffee zone of Guatemala has been de-
stroyed by the flames and smoke from
Santa Maria's blazing mouth.
Eruptions threaten the destruction of
every living thing within reach of the
fumes that pour from the burning
mountain.
A cable to Castel Bros, importers of
this city, received from their coffee
plantation men in Guatemala, tells a
story of intense interest. though few
details are given in the message by
wire. 1t says:
There are enormous losses from
horrible volcanic eruption. The coffee
zone is destroyed. Our lives are in
danger. Further reports will follow"
This volcano. Santa Maria, is To-
Gated between Retalhulen and Quesal-
tenango. The towns in the neighbor-
hood most likely to be destroyed are
San Felipe, Mazatenango and Quesal-
tenango. The volcano has been dead
or sleeping for many years.

DOUBLE TRAGEDY IN DENVER.
June Terril Commits Suicide on
Learning of Death by Criminal
Operation Of Sarah Vance.

Denver. Colo, Oct 30-June C. Ter
ril. twenty-six years of age, was found
lying upon the floor of the drug store,
1859 West Colfax avenue, this morning
about 1870 o'clock. He died two hours
later in the county hospital from the
effects of poisons taken.
An investigation of his death brought
to light some startling facts. A young
woman to whom he was engaged to be
married died last night shortly before
midnight in DR.. George Elliott's sani-
tarium on Twenty-second avenue. near
Downing. Her death, 1t is alleged, was
due to a criminal operation.
The young woman came from a
prominent family of Rocky Ford, Colo
RADIO, and her name was Miss Sarah
Vance. She was about eighteen years
old and very beautiful.
She was taken to the sanitarium last
Sunday night by Terrill. She was sup
posed to be visiting a friend of the
family in West Denver since Sunday.
Under an assumed name she regis
tered at the sanitarium, and her death
would forever have remained mystery
but for the fact that just before the
end came, and when she knew she was
dying, she told the nurses to call
June" at 1929 Downing. June had in
formed the doctor and others at the
sanitarium that his name was Harry
Kline.
He went to the sanitarium. but the
girl was dead when he arrived.
Then he went to the drug store on
Yves; Colfax avenue and took his life.
While Terrill was engaged to marry
Miss Vance and was alleged to have
been the cause of the trouble winch
ended in her death. it also appears that
he was engaged to Miss Grace Gale
house, who lives upstairs above the
drug store. 1859 West Colfax avenue.
He became acquainted with her several
months ago while temporarily en-
ployed by Walter ]. kemper, his broth
er-in-law.

REDIvlVUs OF STRIKE
TROUBLE BREAKS OUT AGAIN
Miners in Seven Large collieries in
Pennsylvania Are Ordered Out by
President Mitchell.

Hazeltop, Pa, Oct 30.-The strike at
the seven collieries of Coke Bros. C Co.,
the four. mines of G. b. Markle & Co.
and the Silverbrook operation of ]. S.
Wentz & Co. was officially renewed to-
day through an order issued by the dis
trict secretary of the United Mine
Workers upon instructions from Presi-
dent Mitchell.
The strikers at those mines were not
permitted to return to work in body,
the Coxes insisting that their employees
make personal application for their
former positions. and G. b. Markle &
Co. requiring that each man, before go
ing back to work. promise to abide by
the decision of the arbitration commits
sion. The Mine Workers allege that
the object of these requirements Is dis
elimination against men who were
prominent in the strike.
A. Pardee & Co.'S collieries, where
the men have been asked not to inter-
fere with nom union hands, are not IN
cluded in the strike order. The men
voted Saturday not to resume work IN
til the agreement is withdrawn.
The trouble at Silverbrook is similar
to that at the Coke mines.
The following notice was posted by
Coke Bros. & Co. at their collieries to-
day:
ANY employe who by intimidation
(moral persuasion) attempts to induce
a company employe to leave or JOIN
society, or anybody who objects TO
work with any other employe because
he has. or does not. belong to socleF'
will be discharged"

der county, where it is said an ex-
tensive test is to be made at the Cold

ties of president. 1t was a matter of
comment that he was to have the title
as well as performing the duties.
1t is an open secret in railroad cir

Settles Labor Trouble.

Chicago. Nov. 2.-The Chicago Fed
Grafton of Labor to-day rescinded its
act of expulsion against Typographical
Union No. 1G and offered to reinstate
the delegates when they apply for ad-
mission.
The action of the Chicago Federation
is due directly to an order from Presi-
dent Samuel Gompers of the American
Federation of Labor. who commanded
it to reinstate the Typographical Union
by November 10th or lose its right of
affiliation with the national body. He.
in turn. was stirred up by the Interna-
tional Typographical Union. which no.
titled him that unless he issued the Or
der it would withdraw from the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor.
To-days action terminates a two
year controversy that had its origin in
a strike of the newspaper pressmen of
Chicago. When the printers refused to
join the strike or give the strikers
their moral support. maintaining that
to do so would be to violate their five
year contract with the newspaper pub
fishers. their delegates were expelled
from the Federation of Labor.

COURTS DECISION FAvoRs
GATES.
Judge Sanborn Denied Right of osgood
and Fellow Directors to Appeal
From Caidwell's Ruling.

St. Paul. Mimi, Oct. 31.-John w.
Gates, who, with his associates, had
been engaged in legal and financial
battle royal with John C. Osgood and
several directors for the control OF the
Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, won
a decisive victory in the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals to-day.
The petition for leave to appeal from
the decision of Judge Caldwell OF the
Circuit Court made by George f. Bart
lett, stockholder. on behalf OF Osgood
and his fellow directors, was denied Dy
Judge Sanborn after few hours ar
gument by counsel in an opinion OF
some length. The decision practically
heads off any legal measures before
the meeting of the board of directors
in December and will compel the Os-
good faction to abide by the appoint
ment of the master in chancery. ID. u.
Beaman and A. NJ. Stevenson, attor-
neys for the petitioners, to-day stated
that further legal action would prop
ably not be attempted. Judge Sanborn
delivered his opinion Immediately up
on the closing of the argument by At
torney Beaman The opinion entered
at length into the legal status of the
petition for leave to appeal. Judge
Sanborn briefly reviewed the case from
the application for an injunction In the
state court and the transfer OF the ac-
tion to the Circuit Court and grant
ing by Judge Caldwell of master In
chancery. He concluded for the de-
termination of the cause that the as
signment of errors was sufficient for
review of the case. but the question IN
yolved was not the right whether the
petitioner had sufficient cause Tor an
appeal, but whether an appeal could
be taken at all.
Judge Sanborn denied that the ac-
ton was appealable as 1t was not
final order. He held that the action
of Judge Caldwell in setting day Tor
the annual meeting and appointing a
master in chancery to preside over the
proceedings was not the continuing OF
an Injunction within the meaning OF
the law. He dismissed the argument
that appeal could be taken on the
ground that the order was refusal
to dissolve an injunction, saying that
an amendment of the law creating the
Circuit Court of Appeals had deprived
that court of Jurisdiction in an appeal
from an order refusing to dissolve an
Injunction. He further held that
Judge Caldwell. who is also Judge
both of the Circuit Court and Circuit
court of Appeals, are coordinate in
authority and Jurisdiction and 1t has
long been the settled policy of the
court that such judges should not re-
view or reverse the decisions of their
equals.

Building to Northwest Coast.

Butte. Mont. Oct. 31.-Advices from
St. Anthony. Idaho. say that a survey
ing corps of the Chicago & Northwest
ern road has completed preliminary
surveys for the extension of the lines
of the Fremont. Elkhorn & Missouri
Valley road from Casper. Wyoming, to
st. Anthony. Idaho.
1t is understood that the construc-
ton of the proposed extension will be
begun in the early spring. From what
is known here it is believed that it is
the intention of the Northwestern to
push on from st. Anthony to the North
west coast. touching at Portland and
other cities of that section. A line to
Salt Lake is also mentioned as among
the probabilities.
