STRIKERS MUST
RESPECT THE DEAD

Chicago. Dec. 22.-Picketing OF
houses from which funerals are 10
start, whether peaceful or violent, by
union livery drivers. who went on
strike FIVE days ago, and which has Sc
riously interfered with the burial OF the
dead in Chicago, is TO be prevented by
the police under direct orders issued
last night by Chief of Police o'Neil. ]
T.. wadsworth. secretary. and Charles
Stevens, business agent, OF the Livery
mems Union, were summoned before
Chief O'Neil tonight and told in de-
cidedly plain language that any differ
ences the union might have would have
TO be settled away from the houses oi
mourning.
Chief O'Neil last night issued gem
eral order to all the inspectors OF po-
lice. He instructed the commanding OF
fccrs to accompany funerals In car
rlages, IL circumstances seem to re-
auire IL, to see that the last rites oi
the dead were In no way interferod

While the courts have inclined &c
permit peaceful picketing. Chiel
O'Neil's order tends to prohibit picket
ing Of any kind around the houses ol
mourning. lie declared that In his
opinlon no court would be found which
would fail to sustain an act OF such ev'

SUSPENSION OF
ENTRIES REVOKED

Washington, Dec. 22.-The secretary
of the interior has revoked the order
under which final action on entries un-
der the timber and stone act were sus-
pended. and all such entries. aggregat-
ing a large number will now be acted
upon In the regular order by the gen
eral land Office.
The order involved several hundred
thousand acres OF public domain In the
West. all entries on which have been
held up because Of tho big frauds per-
petrated on the government under the
timber and stone act. The suspension.
which has been In force many months.
has served good purpose. and In the
view OF the Interior Department has
been the means Of preventing many
fraudulent entries. A rigid scrutiny OF
all entries under the act will be con-
tinued, but the revocation OF the sus-
pension order will have the effect OF
allowing all valid entries to be pat
cnted.
This was the important development
to-day In the land fraud proceedings
and indicates that the government be-
lIeyes that the backbone of the alleged
ring that has been specializing In and
taking unlawful means OF acquiring
lands under this act. has been broken.

Denver, Dec. 22.-The Republican
prints an interview with John c. Os-
good. director of the Colorado Fuel and
Iron Company. and formerly chairman
OF its board OF directors. Mr.. Osgood
said:
There is no truth in the report that
large amount Of money Is unaccount-
cd. for on the books of the Colorado
Fuel and Iron Company. There was no
excuse for the publication of such a
tale. 1t is exasperating to read such
reports when there Is absolutely moth
Ing upon which they could be founded.
The story that an account Is on the
books representing expenditures for a
costly building which cannot be found,
is also the veriest rot.
"The Colorado Fuel and Iron Com
pany is not embarrassed for money.
Money was advanced for Its use by the
Rockefeller and Gould interests and 1t
was advanced upon terms that are re-
markable in their liberality.
THE plants of the Colorado Fuel and
Iron Company probably will remain
closed down until the coal strike is
finally disposed Of There has been no
disposition to keep them closed day
longer than is necessary on account of
the lack of coal. Mr.. Rockefeller is not
trying to freeze out" any one, as has
been said in the papers. No criticism
of him or those interested with him is
fair as far as his dealings with the Colo
RADIO Fuel and Iron Company is con-
,icerned. / have never known case
where men had the power to force f.
nancial matters where they were as
forbearing as Mr.. Rockefeller and Mr..
Gould have been. Everything has been
open and above board. There has been
no attempt to press the stock OF the
company. the interests that have Sc
cured control of the Colorado Fuel and
Iron Company did not force their way
In, and the relations between myself
and the new owners have been very
pleasant.

himself that he fears he can with diff
Guilty check his people much longer.
General Reyes is not talking for pub
LEGATION. but to several European am
bassadors he has conflded his fears
with frankness and has said that he
is doing everything in his power to pre-
vent an outbreak before the conclusion
OF his mission. but that although his
influence with the army is considerable
he is so far away that 1t is difficult for
him to make this felt az strongly as
II he were on the ground and in COM
mand.
Diplomats whom General Reyes has
approached on the subject say that
what he most fears is the result Of
an announcement at Bogota OF the fail
ure OF his mission. He himself real
ICES that the most he can hope from
the government OF the United States is
an offer that II will use moral suasion
to prevail on Panama to assume her
portion of the Colombian debt. Cen
eral Reyes has been told that he can
expect nothing.
Il came to Washington to save what
could from a shipwreck," he said to
la diplomat of his rank.

he Is alleged to have predicted war

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Washington, Dec 90. - Diplomatic
pressure will be brought TO bear upon
Colombia by several European powers
to prevent war between that country
and the United States
The first step in this direction al
ready has been taken by several for
eign powers through their represent
atives here. who have informed Cen
eral Rafael Reyes, of the futility of
any attempt by Colombia to retake
Panama, declaring that 1t will result
only in precipitating the Bogota gov
eminent into war with the United
States and have said to him that the
result of such catastrophe Colombia
herself must realize.
II this is not sufficient. the repre-
sentatives of these countries at Bogo-
ia will be instructed to inform Presi-
dent Marroquin that Colombia can ex-
pect no sympathy from the European
powers in any movement she may make
on Panama. which would inevitably
involve her in war with the United
States.
The members of the diplomatic corps
have been informed by General Reyes

Governor Taft informs the War De-
partment that an agreement has been
reached for the sale of the friar lands.
II Is In contemplation to sell the land
for the benefit of the Filipinos them
selves, for the money will go Into their
own treasury. Payment will be made
by bonds, either turned over directly
to the friars, or sold by the Philip.
pine government at the best price OBJ
tainable, the proceeds being given TO
the orders. The lands are to be sold
as far as possible TO the tenants who
live upon them now. and on longtime
payments, at very moderate rate OF
Interest on the deferred payments.
The main purpose is to create the
greatest possible number of landlords
in the Philippines, for it is believed
such a body would be strong CON
servitor Of peace and do much to dis.
courage future revolutionary move
ments.
The question Of the Withdrawal Of
the friars has. It is said at the War
Department, practically settled itself.
OF the immense body of friars In the
Islands at the outbreak of the war
only 200 are said to have remained.
and nearly all Of these are at Manila.
Even II few remain. It II felt that
their power to further embarrasB the
future relations Of the government and
people in the Philippines has disap.
peared,
1t Is not doubted that the President
and Secretary Root will approve Gov.
ernor Tafts arrangement. particularly
as II appears that the people Of the
United States are not TO be charged
with any Of the money required to buy
the friar lands.
