TALKS OF AN EARTHQUAKE
Consul General Tells OF the
Seismic Disturbance in Gem
trail America.

John jenkins Of Omaha, consul general at
San Salvador. arrived in this city Sunday,
having been granted a sixty-day leave OF
absence from his post. Mr.. jenkins left
San Salvador on April q, just three days
after the earthquake which worked such
awful loss OF life and property In the neigh
boring republic OF Guatemala.
There have been several earthquakes in
Central America since my residence there"
said Mr.. jenkins, but that of June IS was
the most violent / ever felt. TIL shock was
felt in the city Of Salvador at $3.50 In the
evening, Just when the streets we're crowded
with people. and something approaching a
panic ensued. The shaking lasted ut least
a minute and a quarter. and you may gain
come idea Of its severity when / tell you
that an incandsseent light hanging by wire
from the ceiling Of ny omcs swung ten
inches to and fro like the pendulum of a
clock. Although the shock was severe and
startling there was no serious amage In
the city Of San Salvador. Tho loss Of life
in Guatemala, from the best stimate l
was able to secure before leaving. was be-
tween 700 and 500.
"on June q, while the ship OF which !
was aboard was lying at anchor in front Of
ocos, Guatemala. we felt the earthquake
OF that date and could plainly zee the dam
age done on shore, 1 took a number OF
snapshots Of the wreekAge on shore"
Mr.. jenkins is elAted over the success OF
the United States government before the
International Board OF Arbitration, 70
which Salvador appealed from the decision
Of tha State department in the case Of the
Salvador Commercial company. an Amer
lean concern. which enforced the collee-
ton OF a claim for spoliation against the
government Of Salvador.
The action OF our government in thil
case shows that the present administratio
Is following an aggressive policy In the
protection Of the rights OF its citizens
abroad. The eject OF the award OF the in
ternational board in this case will be far
reaching. as IL determines its attitude II

Great Things In Store.

The more we think about it the
more we are convinced that Mont
pelier is one Of the coming towns of
Idaho. We know of no city where
all the conditions are SO favorable
for the building of a city.
1t will soon have an electric light
plant installed.
It will soon have a new round
house and depot.
l. will have many new brick
blocks and new residences in early
spring.
1t will, before another season
opens have new brlckyard or two.
1t ought to have, next year, a
water system in operation.
These and dozens of other propo-
sltions are going to help the town
become, what it has every chance
to be, city second to none in the
state.
All it needs from it's own inhabi-
tants is long, strong pull, and this
it seems to be getting.

AGAINST TICKET SCADpERS,
A Judicial Decision Of sweeping Importance
In the Railroad Passenger Business
Rendered Yesterday.

Washington, Oct. 14.-A decision Of
sweeping Importance to ticket scalp
ers and the railroad passenger BUSH
ness generally was delivered yester'
day by Justice Hagner, of the equity
court Of the District Of Columbia,
who permanently enjoined 50 Of the
local ticket brokers from selling
Grand Army special excursion tickets
issued by the Pennsylvania, Southern
Baltimore & Ohio and Chesapeake q
Ohio railroads. The defense of the
brokers was that they were pursuing
legal licensed brokerage business
and that the railroads in combining
in the establishment Of joint ticket
agency here during the encampment
for the viseing of return tickets, etc.
violated the Sherman antitrust law
The court held that the tickets solo
by the roads on account Of the Grand
Army encampment bore contracts
signed by the purchasers in the pres
ence of q witness and were absolutely
void when used by any other than the
original purchasers. The tickets dis
tinctly read that anyone except th'
original purchasers attempting to USE
them would be subject to prosecu
ton for forgery. The contract slgnet
by the original purchaser is absolute
according to the court and any viola
ton Of It constituted fraud, on which
the suit at bar for the injunction
properly was based. The court DC
clared that the contentious OF TN
complaining roads were tenable'
