his place on B Street, and consequently
was not amenable to the law which COM
PEELED a man TO clear the street OF bar

1t is said Henault is one of the chief

always occupies one or more OF the most
desirable stands. Judge Bundy instruct

ST. NORTH, Aug. 2S.-An accident has
just occurred here which the oldest
guides consider one of the most miracu-
lous escapes in recent years.
Herbert X Manner. an experienced
young American Alpinist. left the Tseh-
eriva hut with guide, Daniel Schlegel,
at o'clock yesterday morning to ascend
the Morteratsch Mountain, which he had
done almost daily. Twenty minutes be-
low the summit, while ascending the
well-known steepest ice slope. and while.
in the middle, the center suddenly caved
in, forming a creyasse more than $50
feet in depth. Both were dashed to the
bottom, with masses of ice towering
above them. Both guide and tourist lost
consciousness
BY sheer good luck they had been
preceded fifteen minutes earlier by an
other party with two guides. This group

THOUSANDS TAKE THE
NEW OATH OF OFFICE
Bookbinders and Printers Do Not
Balk at Orders.

The few employees of the Government
Printing Office who did not take the oath
of allegiance yesterday did so this morn
ing. There are few absentees, includ-
ing several of the officers Of the unions,
who have not yet signed. however, but
there is no doubt that they intend TO
do so.
The reason for the order to compel all
employees to take the oath was made
public this morning.
1t is the result of the investigation
which the Department of Commerce and
Labor has made into the condition of
non-union and union men in all of the
departments. This investigation dis
closed that where the unions were the
strongest no oaths were administered.
The matter was Immediately brought to
the attention of the proper authorities
and the swearing In of the employees fol-
lowed

when asked what bearing the oath might
have on the Miller case, replied that It
was simply a matter of routine. ami
could not affect the case. There was no
hesitancy In signing among the union
men. Public Printer Palmer said there
would be no developments in the Miller
case today.

M0NNETT STILL I'M
A WARLIKE MOOD

COLUMBUS. Aug. 2S.-Frank S. Mon
nett. nominated by the Democratic con-
vention for attorney general of the State
Of Ohio, is known throughout the coun-
try as the most Jealous trust smasher
who has ever been at the head of the
legal department of the State govern
ment. Monnett gained more ridicule than
success in his fight, but II is only fair to
him TO say that he proceeded upon the
theory that the Sherman antitrust law
could be enforced. a presumption not
shared in by the Attorney General of the
United States.
The sensational feature OF Monnett's
official career was that he had Deen
elected as Republican. and proceeded
at once 10 fly directly in faces Of all
his colleagues In the State government.
Nor can IL be said that he faltered IN
the fight he had planned. for the first
organization he had selected for disci-
pline was the Standard OIL Company.

It was a long fight. and in the end the
Standard oil Company won. They <Son

DEMOCRACY SPLIT
IN BUCKEYE STATE

lastly. that 1t would 'criminate the COL
lege-fostering, church-erecting. cam

Monnett and Johnson in Accord.
AS a fact, Monnett made a plea Cor
the publicity of trust affairs through
the exhibition of their books in court,
based exactly upon the same ideas
which, when advocated by President
Roosevelt, forced through Congress the
publicity provisions of the Department
of Commerce law. Monnett went out
of Office with his fight still pending. and
with his retirement il ceased. 1t is
needless to say that the Republicans Of
the State, looking later for candidates
for the job OF attorney general, over
looked Monnett from that time.
Monnett went over TO Organism and
the Democracy In 1900. It was his ami
mostly TO the trusts that caused his
action. and he has been a Democrat
ever since. He is in thorough accord
with the views of Tom Johnson, and If
he should happen to be elected he will
go back to the work of trust busting
in Ohio with renewed ardor and with
more law to back up his efforts than he
had formerly.
He is good lawyer and an agrees
slve speaker For the last four years he
has been active in advancing his own
and Tom Johnson's theories regarding
social and economic questions.

Into Court.

Prosecutor James Pugh. of the Dis

received instructions to wage war en-
the scores of hucksters who leave boxes,
barrels. baskets. and others refuse en-
the south side of B Street northwest,
opposite the Central Market The Com
missioners, II is said, have received nu-
merous complaints from persons who
claim they are entitled to space on the
south side of Street for the sale of
their produce. but owing to an unfair
advantage taken by several hucksters
they cannot get that to which they are
entitled.
Get "Corner" on Space.
It is said the hucksters, who are not
men who raise their own truck and
bring 1t to the city to sell, but are those
who buy great deal of their stock from
Virginia and Maryland farmers. get a
corner" on the space on B Street and
hold on TO it until they get their price
for it. One huckster is said TO have
been occupying one stand for almost a
year. He saves the same place for him
kets. and barrels there.
When the other produce men see the
boxes they think the owner has his mar
ket stuff in them and is going to set
up his stand there, and then they go on
without molesting the barrels and boxes
or whatever may be piled up on the
space.
1t is also alleged that some hucksters
reserve two, three, and sometimes four
stands by the box-piling process. and
sell the stands, which invariably happen
to be desirable ones. to unsuspeeting
farmers. who find that all of the space
is either taken or reserved when they
arrive, however, early it may be.
With view TO abate the nuisance COM
planned of Mr.. Pugh had George Henault,
George Jones, William Harrison, John
Asinger, and John Klein, all alleged
hucksters. in the Police Court yesterday
on charges OF violating the police regu-
lation governing the occupancy of street
space.
They all pleaded not guilty. Henault
showed a disposition to fight the case.
He was told that the law compelled him
to clean the sidewalk of boxes and such
other trash and rubbish as may have
accumulated during his occupancy of the
pavement. after market hours.
