Mitchell at Philade eIphia.

Philadelphia, Pc, Oct. 6.--The belief
prevails in railroad and coal circles
that the mysterious disappearance of
President Mitchell from Wilkesbarre
foreshadows an important develop
ment in the coal strike situation. 1t
was rumored that the man with whom
Mitchell conferred in this city last
Monday was Martin Maloney, close
friend and business associate of p. A.
b. Widener. and he came here today
for the purpose of again seeking Ma
loney Nobody was able to locate
Mitchell, however. Another rumor was
to the effect that he went direct to
Washington. Governor Stone was
closely watched at Harrisburg by those
interested in the settlement of the
strike. but he gave no outward sign of
any unusual movement in this direc-
ton.

DISTRICT COURT.
Engineer Elder on Trial for Obtaining
Watches Under False Pretenses.


The case of the territory VS.. James
Elder, charged with obtaining watch
from Samuel Vann under false pre-
lenses is now on trial. At the adjourn
ment of court this noon the prosecu-
tion had not completed its case, but
from the evidence ahecdy presented it
was shown that Elder, as an engineer,
had procured watch from Jeweler
Whited, of Ration. on April 16, and
from jewelers. Vann and Maynard on
April 80. His first purchase at Ration
appeared to be regular enough. but
that at Albuquerque was very much
on the confidence order. 1t appears
that he was endeavoring to buy from
Vann, Maynard and Everett on the
same day, telling to each slightly diff
ferent story. Vann and Maynard both
let him have watches. but on learning
by telegraphic advice from Superin'
tendent McNally of the Rio Grande -
vision, that Engineer Ellis was buying
watches as fast as people would LET
him have them the suspicious OF Mr..
Vann were aroused and the defendant
was apprehended, A number Of wit
| nesses from out of town are present.
Attorneys Stingle and Hickey repre-
sent the defendant.
In the district court Saturday after
/ noon E. V. Chaves entered a plea of
guilty of murder in the second degree
| for his client Juan Armijo Ortega,
who was charged win the willful mur-
| der of Constable Placido Salazar in
Barelas last spring. Upon recommen-
dation of the district attorney the plea
was accepted by the court. Evidence
was introduced by the defendant TO
| induce the court 10 make the sentence
the minimum.
| Witnesses who testified in the case
were: Clifton Hill Of Isleta; Sheriff c.
+. Blackington, Of Socorro county;
Ramon Armijo and Gavino Abeytia, all
of whom gave the highest testimony
as to the high character of the young
man. The judge gave Mr.. Chayes an
| opportunity to consult with his client
before placing him on the stand. The
further consideration of the case was
accordingly postponed.

BUFFALO BILLS INDIANS.
They Traded Their Beads for Blankets
and CurioS.
PROVED GREAT TRADERS.

The rivalry which exists between
the different Indian tribes for costly
beaded garments, planKets and beau
tiful war bonnets is very noticeable at
all times, but it was very plainly mani
tested Friday night when the Sioux
and Cheyenne warriors and squaws.
with Buffalo Bits Wild West sighted
the beautiful Navajo blankets which
decorated so prettily the interior of the
curio department at the Alvarado.
Colonel Cody made a special visit to
the Harvey curio department after the
show, and was surprised to find such
a costly and fine collection of blankets
and curios. While he was enjoying
the privilege of viewing the articles
brought to his notice, his Indians en-
tered to look around and instantly took
possession of the curio department
The place was changed into a trading
post Immediately, much to the amuse-
ment and entertainment of the crowd
of spectators which We're around at
the late hour.
loves it is fine Navajo blankets. The
Sioux warriors becoming overwhelmed
by the beauty of the blankets began to
trade the beaded garments which they
wore for the blankets. One prominent
Indian chief cut the beaded traps from
his leggings and traded them on a
blanket. The blanket room at the curio
was filled to overflowing with Sioux
and Cheyenne who were pulling down
the great piles of blankets and turning
the well arranged room in one of the
greatest confusion.
An old Sioux Indian squaw seeing a
blanket that appealed to her sense of
beauty, ran behind screen and took
off her beaded skirt and traded it on a
Navajo blanket.
Fine war bonnets, beaded leggings,
costly wampum bags, beautiful beaded
skirts, hair dressers, and many other
heaGed articles were stripped from the
bodies of the warriors, which adorned
them as they made tneir appearance
in the great arena at the Wild West
show and traded on the greatly desired
blankets. A bystander who witnessed
the activity in the trading post remark
ed that il was better than the big
show. The collection of beaded work
which was left in possession of Mr.,
Switzer at the curio is very beautiful
and valuable. The Sioux are the finest
bead makers in the world
Buffalo Bill, his party and many
others witnessed the trading with
great. interest.
The Indians were using every means
TO secure the blankets as cheap as they
could. One big buck wore a fine pair
of beaded leggings he wanted to trade
them for a s35 blanket. Il can't do
that" said Mr.. Switzer, for your leg
gings are only worth about sis, but I'll
allow SIS on the trade"
"All right" said the buck. give me
the Sl5."
The Indians did not leave until they
had made a trade, and they departed
taking a great many fine blankets,
leaving the .curio in state of con-
fusion.

A WORD FROM MR. PAYNE.
HE OBJECTS TO SOME PARTS OF THE
PALLADIUM's ARTICLE.

In the piece printed in your paper,
THE NEwTowN BEE, July 4, taken
from the New Haven Palladium, some
parts of it are not true and 1 wish to
have it corrected. In the first place it
was not II years ago that 1 married
when married her was Edith Mich
OILS, not Sarah, and my daughters name
is not Irene. She was named Bertha
May Payne, by her mother, and was
called Bertha when her mother and I
separated. The child at that time was
some over years old, too old to change
her name, only by law. Her mother
was only % years old when she died, SO
some of the Bridgeport papers stated.
Change II years to 13 years and it will
read nearer right. How eager some
people are to write an article for
newspaper, not caring or stopping to
find out whether it is true or not.
Whatever have done or whatever my
character is makes no difference, 1
can tell the truth sometimes. The
The statement that l never showed
any interest in my daughter is not
true. Some two years ago, when in
Bridgeport asked permission to see
her and was denied that privilege, and
several times have asked the same
privilege. AS to the child being given
to her aunt is entirely against her
request. The fact was spok-
en- of and testified to in court lin New
Haven that her aunt should not have
her. Others that were there can say
the same.-[Leonard Payne, Roxbury
