dlctments Against Prosecutor.

Cole county grand jury, which has
been investigating legislative Doodle.
has made its final report, returning l06
indictments, but it is not made known

Attorney r. E. Stone, on the alleea-
tions that he accepted railroad pass
accepted bride for dismissing prose-
cutions and accepted illegal fees.
Attorney Stone has given out a state
ment declaring that the charges are
false, and are the work of parties who
have been bounding him. The indict-
ments resulted from an investigation
started by charges made by Rev. C.
Brooks, a local minister, who attacked
the prosecuting attorney in sermon
from the pulpit.
Attorney Stone was present in the
court when the indictments were re-
turned, and gave bond for his appear
ance at the next term of court.

Colon, Nov. 16.-Cutters from The
American warships here were dis.
patched this morning to stop the Ger.
man steamer Markomannia, which va.
seen two miles off, towing launch
toward the harbor. 1t was thought tho
Markomannia was coming from q Co.
lomDian port, but it appears that abe
had been chartered at Bocas del Torn
to bring the Alcalde Of that port To
Colon. There was big scare at Bocas
del Terro on the receipt of the news via
Port Lima, Costa Rica, that the Colon.
bian government was sending 5000
troops to take the port, which had re.
Gently declared its allegiance to the
new republic, and the Alcalde left on
the Markomannia for Colon for the
purpose Of obtaining arms and ammu.
milton with which to equip 500 voIun-
teers to resist the expected Colombian
attack. The Alcalde, however, has re-
turned to Bocas del Zorro to allay the
fears of the populace, and to give as
surance that the landing of Colombian
troops there will not be permitted.
The United States cruiser Atlsnta
sailed tonight, and it is understood
she will 60 to Bocas del Terro. 4

MINERS Oct HIGHER PAY.
Northern Colorado Operators Offer Al
most Sure to End Strike.

Louisville, Col, Nov. l7.-Represen-
tatives of the miners Of the northern
coal district and the operators reached
satisfactory conclusion at an early
hour this morning, after being in con-
ference for nine hours, and in conse-
qucnce the mines will without doubt
resume operations at once. The matter
will have to be referred to the various
unions of the district for referendum
vote tonight, and the vote will be
counted tomorrow. 1t is believed the
agreement will be ratified with prac-
teal unanimity.
President Struby, of the Northern
coal and coke company, acted as chair
man OF the meeting and made the fol-
lowing proposition:
ITO settle the existing strike in the
northern Ignite field, the operators in
that field offer to resume work on an
eight-hour basis, with the understand
ing that II the miners lose the present
strike against the southern Colorado
field, or If said operators shall not ac-
cept an eight-hour day, the miners will
go back to the hours prevailing before
the strike"
He also announced the wage scale
which the Northern coal and coke COM
pany was willing to pay, and which
was an increase of about 10 per cent.
1t is stated the change will necessi-
tate an increase in the price of Ignite
coal.

RANT AT AMERICA.
colombians are Wild Over the Loss
Of Panama.

Colon, Nov. 1.-THE Royal Mail
steamer Orinoco arrived this morning.
bringing news of General Torres and
the Colombian troops he took from
here after the proclamation OF the re-
public Of Panama. The soldiers be-
haved well ON the voyage.
On the arrival of General Torres and
his troops at Cartagena the news of the
events on the isthmus quickly spread
and accused excitement. General Torres
and his officers were threatened with
arrest as traitors, but the threat was
not put into effect. The populace,
greatly excited, soon crowded the
streets crying, down with the Ameri-
cans"
United States Consul Ingersoll, fear
ing violence, remained shut up in the
consulate.
The Barranquilla authorities had in
tended sending 800 Colombian troops
by the Orinoco to Cartagena, but
learned that the vessel had debarked
General Torres and his men, and de-
cided to keep the men at Barranquilla.
The excitement at Barranquilla in
creased with the spreading of the news
OF the secession of the isthmus, which
was supplemented by exaggerated ac-
counts of the alleged part played by
the United States therein.
Fears are entertained for the safety
of Americans in Colombia, and of the
possibility of the anger of the popu-
lace being vented against foreigners
generally. The authorities at Savannah
have mounted two obsolete guns cover
ing the wharf.

PRICE FIXED ON FRIAR LANDS.
Taft Appears to Have Solved yszasiou.
Philippine Problem.

Washington, Nov. IA. - Advices
reaching the war department from Ma.
nilla indicate that before he sails for
the United States on December %.
Governor Taft will have succeeded in
setting one of the most vexatious prob
lens connected with the acquisition OF
the Philippines, namely, the adjust
ment of the claims of the friars for
their extensive property holdings in
the islands. The price to be paid ap-
proximates 100000.
Negotiations to this end have been
in progress at Manila between Cover
nor Taft and Mgr. Guido, the papal
delegate, ever since the governors re-
turn to the island from Rome. The
main obstacle to a settlement appears
TO have been an issue between the
papal delegate and the religious orders
as to the proportion of the purchase
money to be paid by the insuiar gov
eminent that was to be turned over 70
Rome. This, it is understood. has
been agreed upon.

alton on the isthmus of Panama. This
general tone OF comments is more OF
less indifferent, with the exception Of
those OF the Speaker. "If the United

apart from hypoorssies, that is what
the movement means-then for the first

Chicago, Nov. l4.--Constant scenes
Of disorder, over a district approx
mately 80 square miles in extent, re-
suited today from the inauguration Of a
strike by the employees Of one OF the
two principal surface street railway
companies in Chicago. All along the
lines, wherever cars were started,
strike sympathizers made desperate on
slaughts on the crews, beginning at
dawn Of day, and continuing as long as
the cars remained on the tracks.
The tie-up was made complete. A
number Of cars were wrecked, and that
no person was killed is no fault of the
rioters. One mans back WAS broken,
and the first shot Of the strike was
fred at Wentworth avenue and West
Sixty-ninth street, where a mob Of sew
eral hundred persons tried to hold up
train.
Derogatory remarks regarding the
union by an armed nonunion employe
Of the company caused riot at Thirty
sixth and State streets tonight. The
man was chased into an engine house
near by, and before the police could
reach the spot mob Of 1000 persons
surrounded the place, bowling for the
life Of the refugee. A squad Of police
men, after great deal OF difficulty,
finally quelled the disturbance and re-
moved the man TO place Of safety.
Many person, chiefly nonunion street
car men, were injured by flying splin-
tered glass. Two women were among
those hurt.
Excepting few dozen passengers,
who had TO flee from the cars, the 300,-
600 patrons OF the company were forced
to all other sorts Of methods to get
down town and back.

London, Nov. 17.-Many hitherto
unknown sayings Of Jesus Christ have
been discovered in Egypt by orcheolo-
gists, who have dug up papyri buried
since the second century, 100 miles
south Of Cairo. DR.. Bernard p. Gren-
fei. who has been engaged In Egyptian
excavations since 1894, at the general
meeting Of the Egypt exploration fund
here yesterday gave the following de-
tails:
Accompanied by DR.. Hunt, DR..
Grenfel found rich Ptolemaic necrop-
oils at Ell Hibeh. The bulk of the
documents from the one mound con-
sisted Of collection OF sayings OF
Jesus. They are all introduced with
the words, Jesus SAITH" and for the
most part are new. The ends Of the
lines, unfortunately, are often obliter-
ated. Apparently all the sayings were
addressed to Sc. Thomas. One Of the
most remarkable is:
"Let not him that seeketh cease
from his search until he finds, and
when he finds he shall wonder; won
dering he shall reach the kingdom, /.
e., the Kingdom Of Heaven, and when
he reaches the kingdom he shall have
rect. -
DR.. Granfel remarked that enormous
interest would be also aroused by the
discoveries on account OF the variations
they disclosed from accepted texts.
One variation Of the mystical saying re-
corded in st. Luke, 1.-THE Kingdom Of
God Is within you" was Of great value,
as the saying in the papyrus appeared
in quite different surroundings from
those attributed to it by the evangelist
and extended far into another region.

London, Nov. 18.-The ColcSnbian
authorities have caDicd TO London =
long protest against the United Slater
action toward Panama, In which they
allege the imam responsibility for the
secearion OF Panama lies with the
United States government, firstly, by
fomentIng the separaiist spirit, OF
which there seems to'be clear evidence /;
secondly, by hsstily acknowledging the
Independence Of the revolted province F;
and. finally, by preventing the Colom-
bisn government from using proper
means to repress the rebellion"
The cable message goes on 10 say that
President Narfoquin has cnergetically
protested TO the United States, and
wishes that his protest should be known
throughout the civilized world The
president contends that the United
States has infringed article 80 Of the
treaty Of 1916, which, he asserts, i'm
plies the duty on the part OF the United
States TO help Colombia In maintaining
her sovereignty over the isthmus, and
adds that the Colombian government
repudiates the assumption Shat they
have barred the way TO carrying out
the canal"
He asserts that since 1885 tn-y have
granted canal privileges to different
people no less than nine times, and
claims that the treaty concluded with
the late General Hnrlburt, when he
Was minister AT Bogota, July 18, 1870,
has been ignored at Washington.
After giving the previously stated
reasons for the Colombian senate's fail
ure to approve the Hay-Hmran treaty,
and asserting that the DELAY In negotia-
tions had not affected the ultimate issue
Of the canal project, the protest Of Pres
idcnt Marroquin points out that Colom-
bia had constantly endeayored to act
In friendly manner with the United
States, even asking for the assistance
OF the American marines 70 insure free
transit across the isthmus," says the
rising occurred when the government
was not prepared, heving Withdrawn
most Of its troops when peace was re-
established last year, and concludes.
THE hastiness In recognizing the
new government, which sprung up I'M
der the circumstances, Is all the more
surprising 10 the Colombian govern
ment, as they recollect the energetic
opposition of Washington to the ack-
nowledgment Of the belligcrency OF the
Confcderates by the powers during the
Civil war.
