But il is Probable That Safe

Chief Collins Did Not Go to Bardwell
Farther Details.

No arrests have yet been made in
the Bardwell train robbery case, but
1t is believed that there will be. IL is
intimated that the men went to st.
Louis, where the police are working
on clues furnished by Chief James
Collins of the city.
Chief Collins expected to 60 to Bard
we'll Saturday with bloodhounds, but
changed his mind. The $500 reward
offered for the robbers will stimulate
the police of this section of the coun-
try 70 do their best work.
1t appears that the amount secured
by the robbers was about So, 400. s2.-
500 was in currency, s2l7 in nickles
and the remainder in gold and silver.
The tools with which the work was
done were secured from a neighboring
blacksmith shop.
The Bardwell Denosit bank has a
paidup capital of SEQ, 900; surplus,

officers of the bank are: President, j.

An important feature Of the anthra-
cite commissions report is that the
federal government, in the commits
sion's opinion, has right to interfere
in strikes of such proportion as the
late coal strike for the protection of
the public. The commissions decis-
ion probably contains some provisions
that are displeasing to both sides, but
1T seems to have been a fair, impartial
arbiter. and its verdict ought to go q
long way towards eliminating strikes
in the future. 1t sums mp the cost
of the strike as 500, 900, 900; to the
mine owners, s4e, 100, coo; to the min.
ers, in wages, s25, 100000 and to the
transportation companies s2S, 900, 600.
The hardship, suffering, and discom-
fort of the public at large, and the loss
OF business through the inability to
get coal, are among the things not
touched on.

II straws show which way the wind
blows, the Democrats of Kentucky are
preparing for some more political tri-
ais in order to help them along in this
years campaign. The Powers and
Howard trials come up in April, and
it is being hinted already thai Judge
Cantrill will refuse to vacste the
bench and let a non -prejudicd man try
the cases, despite the fact that the
court of appeals has several times vlr-
tually. decided that Cantrill is not
fit, or else not competent to try
the cases. The Democrats know, as
they have often been told, that there
is not enough real evidence against
any of the alleged Goebel conspirstors
on which to hang ayellow dog and
they probably know that il the accused
are given fair trials before the right
kind OF judge thsY will be prompt
ly acquitted. wh4 the Democrats
are evidently trying to do just now is
prevent what would prove such ca
lamity to their party by having Can
trill do the job in his usual way and
stir up enough partisan prejudice this
summer to run them through the fall
campaign. .-.

LOST KENTUCKY SOLDIER.
Information Sought By J. T. John
son, of Princeton.

The Confederate Veterans re-
union recently held in New Orleans
has caused the institution of a
search for a lost Kentucky soldier.
Gen. w. E. Mckee, Adjutant Gen.
eral and Chief of the Staff of the
United Confederate Veterans, has
received a communication from J.
T. Johnson, a veteran of Princeton
Ky, asking information relative to
one J. Brent Clark, who was sup
posed to have been in New Orleans.
In the letter the writer asks the
questions: "Was there a man in
New Orleans in business or other
wise about 1887 to 1910 by the name
of }. Brent Clark? If so, what was
his business or profession? When
did said Clark leave there, if he
left at all, and where did he go?"

MAGAZINE STORY
Causes Heavy Damage Suit in
New Yerk City.

A sea captain, Alex Simonson,
has begun suit for $4,000 damages
against a publishing company OF
New York for alleged libel growing
out of a magazine story. The yarn,
as published, described a shipwreck,
in which the captain was the first
to reach shore in the breeches buoy,
leaving the crew and a woman pas
senger to care for themselves.
Simonson says he is captain of
ship of the same name; that the
boat ran ashore not long ago, and
he was not the first one to go to
land. He declares the story, al
though it figures as fiction, has set
him down as a coward and damag-
ed his reputation as a reliable sea-
faring man.
