lightweight Contest Off

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 1S.-The
contest for the lightweight
championship of the world, which was
scheduled to take place on Friday
night is off. Britt sprained his ankle
yesterday while boxing and the injury
is such that a postponement of the
event has been asked. There is some
talk of substituting Eddie Hanlon for
Britt for Friday night, but it is un-
likely that Hanlon will permit himself
to be matched against the hard-hitting
Seiger, as he is not in condition to
fight and fears that an adverse decis-
ion at this time may prove detri-
mental to his future career. Seiger
weighs about five pounds more than
Hanlon, and will have TO come down
to Hanlon's weight If the match is
made.

reassuring telegram from st. Pet

Port Arthur, stating that viceroy
Alexieff has issued a contradiction OF
the reported movements of Japanese

that the reports only intended to serve

AGIS SENTENCED MONDAY
Pleaded Guilty to Burglary,
and Got Five Years

Deputy Sheriff Chas. Muller return
ed this morning from Carson, where
he went with Jas. Creegan Crane, the
confessed forger. Crane gave no
trouble, and entered upon his prison
life in an unconcerned and matter of
fact way.
While in Reno Monday, Mr.. Mule.
attended a session of district court and
to the president and afterward held
Agis, the negro arrested here some
weeks ago by Constable La Voy for
his supposed connection with the rob-
berry of a railroad laborer's house in
the west part of the city. Agis was
wanted in Washoe county on the same
charge. and as the officers here could
not obtain positive proof, he was
turned over to the constable who came
after him, and taken back there.
When arraigned Monday, Agis
pleaded guilty to burglary and waiv-
ing time, was thereupon sentenced to
five years in the penitentiary.

GERMANY is HOPEFUL

BERLIN, Oct. 13.-The foreign Of
fee here now looks upon the situation
in the far east as being less grave.
Both Japan and Russia appear willing
TO arrange a modus vivendi concern
Ing Corea, which country, and not
Manchuria, is the extreme point OF
difficulty.
Russia, it is asserted, would consid-
er 1t a casus belli, were Japan to
land troops atMa-San-Pho. The for
eign Office says the London Times
statement that a secret agreement
exists between Great Britain and Ger
many relative to East Asia is wholly
incorrect.
ST. PETERSBURG. Oct. 13.-Ths
foreign Office says it has no official
confirmation of the reported disem-
barkation of Japanese troops at Ma.
San-Pho. Regarding Manchuria, the
foreign Office states that the question
is at present closed. The existing sit
uation is the fault of the Chinese, Jap
anese and British. II China desired to
reopen the negotiations and accept
certain conditions the situation could
still be changed, as Russia is not
rooted to the soil and could leave If
she liked.

is A
MYSTERY
Hartman Has Issued Orders
to Have Patented Com
pany's Nevada Land

A dispatch from San Francisco
states that it is learned there that
Hartman, for reasons not made plain,
has directed that patents be obtained
for all Central Pacific unpatented
land in Nevada. OF course the 5,0oG,-
900 acres of the Central Pacific land
grant in Nevada, not more than one
half has been patented to the COM
pany. Harriman's reasons for patent
ing the 2,5O0,O00 acres of unpatented
lands is somewhat of a mystery, but
it can be safely wagered that the plan
is one intended to be of great bene-
fit to the road, whether it is to anyone
else or not.
The opinion expressed by number
of people in Winemucca is that the
plan constitutes a move on Harri-
mans part to secure title to mineral
lands which have or may have great
value. There are hundreds or perhaps
thousands of mining cl1ims located on
the land included in the original
grant. When patents are applied for,
il the locators of these claims do not
avail themselves of the right to pro-
test against the issuance of the pat
ents. the title of the land will pass
to. the railroad company by default.
Thus, and in many other ways would
the road become richer by having
the lands patented.

STOCK TOOK
A TUMBLE
Preferred CruCibIe Steel Com
pany Fell Sl2 a Share at
Pittsburg Yesterday

PITTSBURG, Oct. 13.-On rumor
that a receiver was to be appointed for
the Crucible Steel company, the pre-
ferred shares of the stock of that
company dropped s12 a share at the
Pittsburg Stock Exchange today. AS
soon as the officials of the company
heard of the rumor they at once denied
it and the result was better feeling
and quick recovery of 81 a share.
For a time there was intense excite
ment on the exchange and there were
great efforts to sell but in spite of the
offerings the total sales were a little
over 1900 shares of the preferred, the
price declining from $47 to $35 share
The common declined to S. share
and then became stronger like the
preferred on the denial of the rumor.
The Crucible Steel company was or
ganized in 1900 with $50,000,OO0 capt.
tai, $25,000,000 each of common and
preferred stock. The concern produced
80 per cent of the tool steel made in
the United States.
The alleged failure of the deal be-
tween the Clarion Steel company and
the United States Steel corporation
whereby the latter would acquire con-
troll of the Clarion works and the re-
port that the Crucible company de-
sired to dispose of the Clarion plant,
was no doubt the cause of the report
that a receiver was to be appointed.
Ii is said deal is now on for the abb
sorption of the Clarion company by
number of steel manufacturers.
President Smith stated this after
noon that the tangles in the company
would be Strengthened out before the
next meeting: Continuing he said
Il cannot conceive how the rumor
originated / have called a special
meeting of the executive officers for
this afternoon. After this meeting |
shall prepare a complete statement
showing the company's financial con-
dition."

TO CUT DOWN
NUMBER MEN
The Southern Pacific Will Re-
duCe Its Working force to
Save Money

HOUSTON, Oct 13.-J. H. Krutt-
schnitti, vice-president and general
manager of the Southern Pacific, be-
ing shown dispatch from Gala that
within a few days between $50 ard
300 men would be discharged on the
coast division of the Southern Pacific
and before the order for retrenchment
is fully carried out 1900 men will be
out of employment, replied that he
could not vouch for the accuracy of
the figures, but that the principle was
entirely correct.
Just at the present time" said Mr.
kruttschnitti, the Southern Pacific is
In position similar to that of every
other road. During recent years con-
ditions have changed until now the
question of producing net results is an
important one. Cost of labor, cost of
supplies, cost of equipment and il fact
cost Of operating in general are great
ly in excess of what conditions de-
manded a few years ago. The rail-
roads are obtaining on the average in
AClulu lOI 6ClNiCC lCAucIcu just dUOiA
what they did when the costs of oper-
alton were not so great.
During recent years many improve
ments have been perfected, and it is
now for the railroads to show net re-
turns on money invested. The addi-
tions that have been made were male
with the view Of lessening the cost
of operation. 1t is business PROPOSE
tion."

MISTOOk WIFE
FOR BURGLAR
And Nearly Blew the WOman's
Head Off-Husbdnd Is
Almost Distracted

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 13.-Hilliad
Russell, a negro, shot and killed his
wife at an early hour this morning
az their home on the Corbett road.
Russell awoke, according to his story
and hearing a noise in the kitchen,
thought that burglars were in the
house. He took his shotgun from its
accustomed place, and turning saw a
figure at the bedroom door. Raising
his gun he commanded halt" and
without waiting for a reply, fired
both barrels, nearly blowing his vic
TINS head off.
The body fell to the floor, and then.
for the first time, Russell realized that
he had killed his wife.
Neighbors were called in and later
the police found the grief-stricken
husband kneeling at the side Of his
victim bemoaning the horrible fate
which had taken her from him. Rus
sell was arrested, but his story was ap-
parently such a straightforward one
that after a more thorough investi-
cation by the detectives he will be re-
leased if no evidence be found to i'm
peach him. His children awakened by
the cry of halt, and the firing of the
shots, corroborate in great measure
the story told by the husband and
father. The Russell home had been
burglarized recently.
