Senators Trying to Prevent
Measure Becoming 0nerous
to Small Concerns.

Washington, Feb. 12.-The senate
committee on judiciary continued its
consideration of the trust question to-
day and after holding two sessions
adjourned until tomorrow. The COM
mittee was especially concerned today
in an effort to so amend the Little
field bill as not to make it burden
some to small corporations. 1t prac-
ticaily is the unanimous opinion of the
committee that a bill should be en-
acted into law, but there is much diff
ference as to the phraseology to be
employed. There also is practical una
nimity as to the desirability of max
ing the proposed law apply to corpo-
ratiOns which are capable of becoming
oppressive in their operation and of
relieving those which az leneficent in
their operations are not extensive
enough to require close supervision.
The committee is finding difficulty in
defining a line of demarcation but the
members express the belief that way
will be found out of the difficulty and
that the bill will be so modified as not
to make it onerous upon small con-

DROVE BACK TO BUTTE
Northern Pacific Robbers Bold
Enough to Go Back Into
SmeIter City.

Butte. Mont, Feb. 12.-Sheriff Quinn
is firmly convinced tonight that thu
hOld-ups of the Burlington flyer No.
which was robbed six miles out of tbs
city limits this morning, reached BUTT
and are now hiding in the city. From
evidence Quinn says he has, ne declares
he Will land the robbers before severa
days have passed. While Sheriff Quinn
would not tell as to the evidence in hii
hands, it is believed he relies on finding
the rubber tired carriage used by thl
hOld-ups in their escape The tracks O
the vehicle could be easily followed thh
morning until the well-traveled high
ways of the city were reached. a masI
and empty cartridge shells dropped by
the robbers are in the hands of the pO-
lice The blOOdhOunds brought from
the penitentiary this morning proved a
failure and were returned to Deer
Lodge tonight.
Fireman Jondrow tonight said that
the train was stopped by bits of burn
ing paper and that within thirty-five
minutes the robbers had finished their
work and were on their way to Butte.
He was forced to uncOuple the engine,
mail and express cars from the re-
mainder of the train and carry the dy-
Mantle Of the robbers, while one of the
bandits fred a bullet between his legs
to hurry him.
Various estimates are made as 10 the
booty secured by the robbers. It is in
timated in some quarters that the loss
will run into the thousands. despite the
assertion of the railroad people that
not more than $500 was taken
The officers are of the opinion that
William McCullagh. who was placed I'M
der arrest this afternoon on suspicion Of
being implicated in the robbery. had no
connection with the hOld-up.
Much suspicion was directed against
the man because of the discovery OF a
mOEey belt upon his person containing
$3.50. about the sum the railway people
declare was stolen from the Burlington
flyer. Another odd fact is that McCul-
laghs wealth was principally in so and
500 bills, while the express package said
to have been taken by the hOld-upS was
made up o. Ssh and 800 bills.
William Wickam was taken into Gus
tody BY Deputy Sheriff Haggerty this
evening but was released after Mail IN
Spector Perkins had decided he was not
one of the men . The police tonight
placed another suspect under arrest. but
refuse to give his name or say anything
regarding the case

were being coupled 10 pull No out two
suspicious looking men were observed by

Plot to Poison Teachers of the
Reform School.

ENOUGH FOUND TO KILL ONE
THOUSAND PEOPLE

OGDEN. Feb 12.-Another eonsplra-
" cy, revealing a startling state OF
affairs at the state reform school,
is being investigated by the authorities
Of that institution. It has been discov-
cred that plan existed to poison the
teachers and others in authority at the
school,
The superintendent and other Of
nclalS have known OF the affair for 2
week or two, but the matter has been
Withheld, and not until today did the
main facts leak out. The superintend-
ent would not dare to disclose the
names. but it is known that at least
enough TO kill 1000 people was found
in their possession
1t seems that during the recent at
tack of scarlet fever lot Of bichloride
of mercury tablets were used for pur-
poses of disinfection, and two pack
ages of these were kept in the cottage
adjacent to the main building The
two girls got hold of q few packages
and brought them over to the main
building. where they were kept con-
cealed
Information has been received that
the girls planned to put a few bits OF
the stuff in the cups Of coffee at break
fast. But just how far they had pro-
gressed with the details of the schems
is not known. The general investiga-
ton brought about by the recent at
tempt to burn the building, resulted
in the poison being discovered. and IL
some Of the girls who were in the Sc
cret making wholesale disclosures.
1t is quite probable that the superin.
tendent will prefer charges agains

of n. G.. Gonzales, editor of the Staten
Columbia, Jan. Is. to serve the prosecu-
ton with copies of the affidavits to be
presented at today's hearing for an ap-
plieation for bail. Chief Justice Pope
ordered the application postponed I'M
til Thursday, Feb. 10.
In his affidavit Tillman alleged that
he had been abused and maligned by
the editor of the State He heard ru-
mors that Mr.. Gonzales had threatened
him and had been advised to be on his
guard. He was informed that Mr..
Gonzales inquired for him at the state
house, saying he would make him show
the white feather. On the day of the
shooting he happened to be moving
some of his effects, including two pis-
tolls, from the state house to his rooms.
He saw Mr. Gonzales coming. glaring
at him, saw him run his hand deep
in his overcoat pocket and turn to-
ward him, and. believing his life in
danger. he hurriedIy said: Il received

country. the greatest Democratic force

of today
Bryan Roasts Deserters.
The ovation rendered Mr.. Bryan was
the most enthusiastic of the evening.
He asserted that if there is any one
man in the country who has suffered on
account of lack of Democratic harmony,
he is that man, and charged that it
was the opposition of alleged Demo
Gratis within the ranks of his party
that brought him to defeat in 1896 and
1900 He said that he knew all the
men who had gone esuay in those
years, and that since then they had
suffered severe heart burnings.
IF it is such serious affair to
change party allegiance" Mr.. Bryan
said, II hope these men Will stay out
of the Democratic party. There can
be no harmony between Democrats who
carry knives for each other and hate
each other. There is a better chance
to make Democrats out of Republicans
than out of Palmer and Buckner Dem
ocrats.
These men can never be in harmony
with US unless they or we change our
political convictions. still believe in
the platform adopted at Chicago in 1875
and in Kansas City in 1900. 1 have no
thought of surrendering my convic-
tons. Our principles were true then
they are true now. / would not change
them if I could. Neither would 1 sur
render my principles to win any victO-
~, however great, for my party. A
party. like a man, needs a character
and a membership that knows what is
right, and then will do it,"
Mr.. Bryan said he did not propose
to take his Democracy from any Dem
ocratic leader who received his train
ing from Wall street.
An expected clash between the John
son and Mclean factions of the state
committee did not develop to an acute
stage. no action of any kind being
taken.
A pOStpOnement of disputed points is
looked upon as a victory for Johnson,
as it is said McLean's friends backed
down from the aggressive stand taken.
