IA ROYAL EPIDEMIC
 APPROPRIATELY DENIED
Nc Truth in Story of Illness of Rus
 sian Imperial Family.

London, November 1S.-Europe has been flooded for weeks with dispatches from various places in Russia, giving alarming stories of the ilI-health of the czar, the czarina, the czarowich and other members of the imperial family, but most of them have already been authOritatively denied. The czar and czarina on Sunday appeared on the landing stage at Yalta, Crimea, to vel come Prince and Princess Nicholas of Greece.
 Both their majesties appeared well. The rumors of the serious illness of the cZarowich, Grand Duke Michael, are denied in a dispatch to the Associated Press which arrived here this evening and which was sent from St. Peters burg yesterday. The dispatch adds that the cZarowich had arranged to hunt today with a party of diplomat iSts.

countered. There was a bowling fir
 teen hundred of them as the carriages
 were driven along the east front. The
 distinguished visitors acknowledged
 their welcome by frequent raising of
 their hats. The carriages turned along the south front and the cheers contin-
 ued. These" said MT. Fowler to Sen ator Beveridge, 'aTe representative of
 the great east. A very large majority
 of them are children of parents who
 came from east of the Mississippi %
 This is remarkable" replied the sen
 ator, with his gaze still fixed upon the school yard. This is remarkable" he
 repeated. The other senators were as profoundly impressed.
 That was fitting climax and end of the tour. and after lunch the sena- | tors took up the business Of the in vestigatiOn. Witnesses representing the city and county governments were ! sent for. They were admitted to the room one at a time and were sworn. The questioning was for the most part ! conducted by Senator Beveridge. One of the witnesses was City Assessor Luke. The committee wanted to know about the city's income and how it was derived. The matter Of licenses i was gone into at great length and
 that led to the subject Os saloons and the keeping of them open all night and Sundays. Among the witnesses were MT. r. M. Murphy, Former Governor ! McCord, Judge Kibbey and others, who it was thought could lay before the ! committee in the shortest possible time
 the information of which it was in
 search.
 The Mexican population of the terri
 tories is feature Of the investigation which has been followed very closely
 by the committee in the course of its tour through New Mexico. Represent atives of that population summoned yesterday were Pedro de Ia Lama, Te- Odora Olea and N. Otero.
 There were two others who had not , been regularly summoned. They were ! Judge Street and B. A. Fowler. who with the consent of the committee, or
 rather at its suggestion, had been se- ] lected to present the side of the terri tory, so that they appeared as advO- cates rathe- than as witnesses. They
 were told that the committee would not require from them any informa ton in the way of figures or statistics, but would hear any observations they might have to make. Both made strong arguments upon the information al
 ready in the hands of the committee. Mir. Fowler told the committee that

FOOD TO USE
When Doctor Is net Convenient.

Many people dislike to call in doc tor until it is absolutely necessary; frequently a change of food will work wonders.
 A young lady in Eussellville, Ky. says: "I was taken i'll six weeks ago, and could net take solid food; was only allowed to eat soup and milk. Tn about a week, l got so weak and nervous I could not sleep. Father wanted to call in a doctor but T objected, as I didn't feel l needed medicine as much as good food. The next day father had to go to town. and brought back a package of Grape-Nuts with him, and I com menced to eat it twice a day in milk. l would get hungry for it from one time tC the next. Tn a few nights, I could sleep soundly all night, and in two weeks I was up. and had actually gained flesh, and was as strong as be- fore ] got sick.
 "I would not be without Grape Nuts now for anything, and my friends com ment on my looks. I tell them I owe it to Grape-Nuts, and recommend it to all who complain of stomach trou- ble, which is the general complaint in this neighborhood." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

MT. McVeagh, who began the cross examination of MT. Mitchell on Sat urday, concluded at II o'clock today. The distinguished attorney centered most of his energies in trying to break down the miners reasons for asking for a yearly agreement with the com panies on the hours of labor. wages and other conditions which, if made, would be a recognition of the union. MT. MacNeagh's principal aim through out his questioning of MT. Mitchell was to show that the mine workers union, because of alleged acts of intimidation, violence and use of boycott by it's mem- bers, proved itself unfit to be a party to a contract.
 Mir. Mitchell would not admit, nor even assume for the sake of illustrat- ing points, of a reign of terror exist ing in the anthracite fields during the last six months. The recognition of the union is looked upon as the most inn portant question before the cOmmis- sion. and it is quite evident from the trend of proceedings thus far that the companies will oppose it to their ut most ability.

THE BEAR HUNT
 WAS A FAILURE The President Did Not Even
 See One Alive
He Accepted the Situation as Hunt CTS Luck and the Next Time Will Arrange to Stay Long Enough fol Bad Luck to Charge.

Smedes, Miss, November 1S.-Presi- dent Roosevelt's bear hunt in Missis- sippi is ended and he has not had even a shot at a bear. The last day of the chase was simply a repetition of tho three preceding days so far as his luck was concerned. Try as the hunters would, they could not get bear within range of the presidents rifle. The dogs caught fresh trail this morning. and the president and Hoke Collier fol- lowed it half a dozen miles to the Big Sunflower river.
 The bear crossed a mile below tho ford they went to. and, believing it was making for the canebrake on the other side, they enedavOred to head it off. When they got into the brake. however, they were disgusted to find that the bear had doubled on his track and crossed the river still further down. II was then 1 o'clock and as arrange ments had been made to break camp at 2:3O the president was reluctantly compelled to abandon further pursuit of the elusive quarry.
 Although the president had failed to kill a bear on this expedition, he en- joyed his outing. and speaks in high praise of the hospitality that has been accorded him.
 He philosophically attributed his ill., fortune to the traditional hunters luck, and says the next time he goes after bear he will arrange to stay long enough for luck to change.
 The breaking-up of camp today was an interesting proceeding. The camp outfit was loaded into six mule wagons the beds and sides of which were form ed of the boards used for the table and tent floors.
 bear killed today and the one killed yesterday were loaded and will be taken to Washington on the special train.
 Upon the presidents arrival from camp he found fully five hundred peo- pie. practically all negroes from the surrounding plantations assembled to greet him. He thanked them for them demonstration but made no speech. Al 9:30 the special train started for Mem phis.

GOVERNOR WRIGHT
 WELCOMED HOME
Memphis Turns Out to Honor a Fav-
 orite Son.

Memphis, Tenn, November 13.-The homecoming of General Luke E. Wright after an absence of three years in the Philippines, was made memora- ble tonight by the citizens of Memphis. CannOns boomed a salute of r guns, bOnfires were lighted on the particular thoroughfares and the streets were lined with people who shouted an en- thusiastic welcome to the vice gover- nor.
 At Gayeso hotel an informal recep- ton of an hour was held. Hundreds of friends grasped the hands of General and Mrs. Wright, and welcomed them on their return to Memphis. General Wright was visibly affected, and said he was glad to be at home again. His remarks were very brief, and after the reception he was escorted to his resi- dence on Jassamine street.

The senate sub committee on terri tories concluded it's visit to Phoenix at midnight last night, having spent more time here than at any other place in the itinerary, and having evi- dently received a more favorable i'm pression than was received at any other place. Not a minute oi the stay of the senatorial gentlemen was vast ed. It has been the custom to take visitors around the town and valley for their amusement and gratification. The members of the subcommittee went over the same ground in the way of work, to see what the aspiring terri tory had to offer in support of it's claims to statehood. The afternoon until a late hour was spent in gather ing oral testimony from all possible sources, and much of the testimony was procured by rigid ss-question- ing.
 The drive about town and the sur rounding country took place in the forenoon. The senatorial party was di- vided among citizens as follows: Ser- ator Beveridge in a carriage with For mer Governor Murphy, General Aims worth and B. A. Fowler; Senator Dill lingham in a carriage with Mayor TaI- DJlI II ciAAEA OOA anu DI- A. J. N-naHI- Ter; Senator Heitfeld with Hon Mark 4. Smith and L. H. Chalmers: Senator Burnham with Former Governor Me Cord, Dwight B. Heard and Dr. E. w. Wilbur. Another carriage for the press contained Colonel McClintock, Secre- tary Thomas R. Shipp of the commit tee, and MT. Ogborne. the Associated Press correspondent accompanying the party.
 The drive was made along East Washington street and a short stop was made at the city hall. The capitol was the next place visited. Governor BrOdie received the visitors. They also called upon Secretary Stoddard Terri torial Auditor Nichols and Surveyor General Price. The party returned to the city and called upon Judge Kent in his chambers and remained at the court house through the opening of the court.
 Then tour was made north of the city and east to the Indian school. where the pupils performed the fire drill The drive had been so timed that the carriages would arrive at the corner Of Adams and Center streets at the noon hour, when the schools would be dismissed. The pupils from the other schools had been massed there, so that they made an imposing array, and probably occasioned the senators the most profound surprise they had en-

Scranton, Pa, November 1S.-Presi- dent Mitchell, for the fourth successive day, occupied the witness stand dur ing the two sessions of the strike com mission and was cross examined by three attorneys for as many coal com panies. While a considerable amount of information for the enlightenment of the commissioners was brought to light, the day was a rather quiet one compared with those that have pre- ceded it.
 The arbitrators are growing restless in consequence of the long cross-exam- ination, which apparently does not bring out the facts as quickly as the commission would like to have them presented. Several times during the course of today's session Chairman Gray reminded the attorneys of the value of time, and suggested that the cross-eXamination be limited to new features of those questions that have already been gone over.
 Mir. Mitchell has been on the stand since last Friday morning, and is showing signs of weariness from the strain of four days cross eXamina tion.

ANTI-G0MPERS MEN
 NOT STRONG ENOUGH
The Federation President Will Be
 Reelected.

New Orleans, La. November 1S.-The salary of the president of the American Federation of Labor was this after noon increased from $2,1OO per annum to $3,000, and the salary of the secre- tary from $1,SOO to $2, 800.
 The increases were voted after a long debate in which fully thirty delegates participated.
 The feature of the debate was the attempt of the socialists in the conven- tion to fix the presidents salary at S4.000 though they subsequently, pre- sented the resolution which fixed the salary at S3,OOO.
 Delegate Berger. of Milwaukee, speaking in behalf of the socialistic element which is opposed to the policy of the present administration of the or ganiZation, although it has no particu- lar objection to either President Comp CTS, or Secretary Morrison as individ- uals, urged the resolution for $4000 salary, saying: This is not a personal measure. l say frankly that if the socialists had the power in this conven- tion they would turn out Gompers, Morrison and the entire executive board and elect socialists in order to carry out a socialistic policy in the American Fedora ton of Labor. But the socialists are fair and they believe that labor organizations should not eX- ploit their officers and employees. On the contrary labor organizations ought to pay the best of wages. Our treas ury permits it and our organization comprising nearly one and half mill ion workers ought to pay fair salary
 The special committee having before it the dispute between President Comp CTS and President Shaffer. of the Anal gamated Association, finally managed this afternoon by selecting l.. A. Tan quary, of the telegrapher's, as the fifth member.
 It spent the entire afternoon in talk ing testimony but does not expect to be able to present a report before Thursday morning. It is considered almost a foregone conclusion that tt will report the future president to be MT. Gompers. The committee on the presidents annual address rendered it's annual report and declared it was op- posed to his suggestion for the forma- tion of a national labor union. There is yet no avowed candidate for the presidency against MT. Gompers

but there is quite an clement among the delegates who are opposed to him and they are casting about for a candi- date. At present their choice for the position is Vice President James Dun can, who has not, however, said that he will run. The anti-Gompers fac ton will make a strong effort to induce him to make the race. It is admitted, however, even by those who are oppos- ed to Gompers that there is small chance for beating him.
