PRESIDENT BAER

Flying Visit to City

A man was in this city yesterday who
would have riyalled the Prince Of Slam

Baer, president of the Reading Rail-
road Company, one OF the most con-
spicuous persons in the adjustment Of
the coal strike. He said he only made a
flying trip, coming from Philadelphia
over the Baltimore and Ohio railroad,
his object being TO talk to friends who
were going from Philadelphia 10 Wash
ington.
Mr.. Baer tried to evade the newspa-
per men by hiding from them after
reaching here, but they finally located
him.
Il left the Baltimore and Ohio depot
in order to avoid you fellows the
Reading president said, "but / seem 10
have walked into a trap"
When asked If there were any imme-
diate prospects Of the coal strike being
settled, he said:
"Oh, well, It is now up to the Presl-
dent to do something. SO far as
know, he has appointed no commits
sion. According to my idea OF the mat
ter the coal operators submitted their
proposition to President Roosevelt
with the understanding that he would
appoint a commission. If he does not
do so, that will and the matter"
The men whom President Baer joined
on the train in Philadelphia were Rob
ert Bacon and George w Perkins, who

ing here today to consider the PROPOSE

USES HUM FOR
HIS PURPOSE
Extra Session of Legislature Con
sidered the Last Desparine
Effort of the Gasman

The announcement that Governor
Hum would call an extraordinary SEES
sion Of the State Legislature on Mon
day next to ballot for United States sem
ators is received with general condem-
nation.
II Is considered as last despalrine
effort Of John Edward Addicks to get
elected to the United States Senate. lie
has lost all nope of being elected by
the next session of the State legislative
body, and is using Governor HUM as a
tool to bring about the ambition of his
life. However, a thorough canvass of
the votes does not show any change of
sentiment among the members. and the
extra session would only mean an add.
ed expense upon the taxpayers. which
they Will resent. and properly so.
The fact that Governor Hum has in
timated that he will call an extra ses-
sion OF the Legislature seemed to in
no way disturb Regular Republicans
in this city 1t was the general inn
preston on the street this morning that
the whole affair is another one of Ad-
dicks BLUFFS.
Many prominent Republicans were
seen. but all declared they knew moth
ing whatever of any agreement whereby
two senators will be elected II a special
session is called. The announcement
was a great surprise TO the Union Re
puhlicans as well as Regulars, as they
cannot figure out in what way it would
benefit anyone. Representatives Sam
uel II. Baynard, James Nv. Robertson
and James Kitchen say that they know
OF no plan or agreement for the elec.

JURY To REPORT
IN COLLINS CASE
If True Bill Be Found, Ac-
cused's Attorney Will Ask
for Continuance
sneclal 10 the Evenlng journal.


Georgetown, Oct. 16.-'The Grand
Jury will present its report in the Col
Inns murder case this afternoon. The
State says that enough evidence has al
ready been presented to warrant the
Jury in finding a true bill. Already
twenty-five witnesses have been heard
and it is expected that ten more will
be examined.
H. G. Nibbit, who is alleged to have
heard the prayer in which Collins said
he was sorry he killed his wife, has
not gone before the Grand Jury yet. He
will probably testify this afternoon.
He still sticks to the story he crig.-
nally told.
The girl who has the letters said to
have come from Collins has not YET
gone before the jury. She was in the
court room this morning, and was the
object Of much attention.
If the Grand Jury is not satisfied
with the evidence produced today, some
startling testimony. which the authori-
ties have been holding in reserve, viii
be produced. It does not want to dis
close all the evidence.
r. c. White, attorney for Col
llns, said this afternoon. if his Glen
were indicted he wculd ask for a con
tinuance. The court will probably gran
it, although the Slate will object
/ Collins was present in the ccEr,
room all day yesterday, but was no
seen in Georgetown today.
