COLORADO ROADS MAY FIGHT.
Burlington, Rock Island and Santa Fe
After Worlds Fair Traffic

The question as to which road is to
receive the bulk of the Worlds fair
traffic from Colorado is very likely to
terminate in a very pretty little scrap
between the Burlington, Rock Island
and Santa Fe roads, says a Denver
paper. If these three lines get in a
rate war it will be cheaper to go to
the Worlds fair than to stay at home.
A feature of the rate situation that is
interesting to passenger men is that
brought about by the exposition at
st. Louis. At present the lines to St.
Louis are taking the bulk of the
travel east, because of the opportunity
to visit the fair. The Chicago-Colo-
RADIO lines are looking on with any
thing but a cheerful expression. They
see their summer traffic going to the
bow vows.

PUT THEN II JAII,.
Non-Union Men Get Little Sympathy
at AIbuQuerQue.

The first serious trouble to come out
of the strike of the Santa Fe machin-
lists in Albuquerque occurred last week
in the Eight Spot saloon, near the
shops on South Second street, as a. re-
suit of which five non-union men are
serving various terms in the city jail
and a sixth has left a ten dollar bail
in his wake. All of the men had been
drinking.
At about o'clock these men went
into the Eight Spot saloon. There
were a number of the strikers in the
place and one of the non-union men,
Cain by name, addressed an insulting
remark to one of the strikers. Cain
was knocked down for his trouble and
a scrimmage resulted in which a slot
machine was reduced to scrap iron.
Several arrests were made by the Of
f1cers who were on the scene before
the scrap was well under way, result
ing in the sending of Cain and Law
renee, non-union men, to Jail for tnir-
ty days, Walsh and Larson, non-union
men, to jail for ten days and another
non-union man, Johnson by name, to
five days on the streets. All but the
first two were arrested for being drunk
and diSOrderly.

General Manager Wells and other officials

The boilermazers here went out a few
days after the macninists struck. saying
they would not work with non-uniOn boil
erma kers. It is now understood they are
trying to settle their differences and re-
turn to work.
The strike situation is about the same.
A number Of'the machinists have left the
city and those who remain pin their faith
to the machinists' officials, fully believ-
ing they will win the strike.
Guards are still maintained at the shops
and those of the imported men who are
proving skilled and efficient are kept

YoAKUN's ROAD GROWING.
VIII Be Built Across Texas and Into
Mexico

Fort Worth, Tex, May 17-There is no
further doubt about the St Louis
Brownsville and Mexico going into Mex
leo The line will if there is no material
hindrance, reach Brownsville this week
according to the statement of Chairman
B. F. Yoakum of the board of directors
of the Frisco. who is the power behind
the Lott road. In his connection it is
given out that great things are planned
for this line and that the road, instead
of remaining a local enterprise is to be
developed into a greet international rail-
way, becoming 1ong rival of existing
lines now crossing the Rio C1rande. Pres
ident Xoakum Us that the Lott road viii
go to Mexico and that he, with other as
sOciates of the company, will visit Mexico
City during next month to arrange the
concession for the extension into the re-
public. From present indications, how
ever, it is believed that it will be some
what difficult for the Lott company to Sc
cure concession to cross the border.

EMPLOYING NEW MEN.
Santa Fe Puts Nom Union Machinists

Temple. Tex, May 1.-THE ma
chinists' strike on the Santa Fe has
reached the stage where the company
is employing new men to take the
place of those affected by the recent
trouble Five new men were hired
and put to work at the sh tops here
yesterday. So far there had been no
attempt at interference of any kind
and the situation is calm and peace
full There is a force OF guards on
duty patrolling the shops and grounds,
but there seems to be little necessity
for their presence, and, in fact, the
original number employed has been
reduced one-half.

NEW YORK ROAD RACE RESULTS
IN DEATH FOR ONE AND IN
JURY OF FOUR OTHERS.
IMPORTED CAR WINS THE CONTEST
COVERS THREE HUNDRED MILES
IN A LITTLE LESS THAN FIVE
AND oNE-HALF HOURS.

New York, Oct. 10.-George Heath,
an American driving an imported car
and representing the Automobile club
of France, won the William K. Van
derbilt. Jr., cup in the 3O0-mile road
race held on Long Island under the
auspices of the sAutomobile club of
America. He won by the narrow mar
gin of l minute and % seconds The
contest cost one life and at least four
persons were injured, none of them,
however, fatally. The fatal accident
occurred to the car of George Arents,
Jr., wealthy New Yorker, and the
man killed was Karl Mensel, his ma
chinist. Arents' car was No and
he was driving at a tremendous speed
when, just as he approached sharp
curve on the Hampstead road, front
tire slipped and the great sixty horse
power machine went over. Both
Arents and Mensel were hurled with
tremendous force to the roadway. Both
were picked up unconscious and hur-
ried to a hospital, where Mensel died
in a short while. Mr.. Arents' injuries
are said not to be of a serious charac-
ter. All OF those injured were con-
nected in some way with the race,
most OF them being helpers.
Few Starters Finish Contest.
Of the eighteen starters who went
across the starting line but seven were
left when the seventh lap of the course
was concluded. Bursted tires, broken
parts Of machinery and other mechan-
ical arrangements were the causes for
the most OF the dropping out. Gabriel,
the noted French driver, who was
looked upon as likely winner, was
we'll in the lead in the first three laps
but he was gradually overhauled and
passed and III the seventh lap, when
he broke a crank shaft, he dropped out
OF the race When there were but
two rounds left of the ten required to
finish the 300 miles it was evident that
the contest lay between Heath and Al
bert Clement, who also drove an i'm
ported car and represented the Auto
mobile club of France. Clement fin
ished second and H. H. Lyttle, driving
an American car, was third. His car
was OF but tWenty-four horsepower,
while Heath drove ninety horse.
power car and Clement an eighty.
Heath, the winner, covered the 800
miles in 5 hours, 26 minutes, As sec
Onds, and Clement the second man, in
5 hours Is minutes and Is seconds.
Clement entered a protest against
Heath being declared the winner on
the ground that his time had not been
taken according to the conditions
which were to govern the race. After
the protest had been received the de.
cisicn declaring Heath the winner was
withdrawn

Fresh Trouble Breaks Out in German
Southwest Africa.
Berlin, Oct. 10.-Fresh trouble has
broken out in German Southwest At
RIGA. The Witbois tribesmen, who
had hitherto been faithful to the Ger
mans, are in revolt. Governor Lieut.
vein, in telegraphing this news to the
government, says the Witbois have at
tackled the station at Kuis, on the
Fisch river, and are reported to be at
lacking the station at Hoachan. AS
all the Witbois who were with the
German forces at Gibson have deserted
and ENJOYS have gone to the Bastards,
another tribe, to urge them to rise,
the revolt of the Witbois is a serious
matter since they had hitherto been
loyal, had supplied recruits for the
native troops and were relied on great
ly as scouts. No explanation is given
of the present discomfort.
