Cody Drops Divorce Suit.

Omaha, July 11.-In a cablegram to
his foster brother and business man
ager, DR.. d. Frank Powell (White
Beaver) of Cody, Wyoming, received
here yesterday, Col w. F. Cody (Buf-
falo BID requests that steps be taken
Immediately TO dismiss the appeal in
his suit for divorce.
Colonel Cody dismisses the appeal"
said DR.. Powell, Eat the earnest request
of his only living child, the wife of
Lieut. Clarence Armstrong Stott of
Fort Thomas, Georgia. He does 1t to
please her, and to please her only"
1t is well known to their friends that
no reconciliation has been effected be-
tween the colonel and Mrs. Cody and
that they will not live together again as
husband and wife. The dismissal of the
appeal in the divorce suit is not the
result of any change in their relations,
but is the result of the efforts Mrs.
Stott has made to bring her parents
together. Before Colonel Cody's eldest
daughter, Arta, died last year she
pleaded with him not to begin divorce
proceedings, and after the petition
had been filed she begged him to dis
miss the suit. Colonel Cody was deeply
moved, his friends say, by the appeal
of his facorte child, but he was deter
mined to get divorce If possible and
prosecute the suit. 1t is said that since
then he often has alluded to his daugh-
ter's dying request with much feeling
and they suspect that he has more
than once regretted on her account
that he filed the divorce suit.

Japanese In SakhaIin.

Toxic, July 1.-THE announcement
of the landing of Japanese force at
Sakhalin island and the occupation OF
Karsakovsk, followed by the northern
flight of the garrison, has been re-
ceived with great satisfaction by the
Japanese. The landing of the army at
Sakhalin marks the first entry of the
Japanese upon Russian territory
proper.
The Japanese have expressed them
selves pleased to be again in posses
sion of the island, declaring that they
have long felt that the bargain under
which they relinquished the place
forty years ago was unsatisfactory.
The Japanese express the belief that
they will speedily control the entire
island, as they regard the garrison
there as being incapable of serious re-
sistance and are confident that it will
certainly be captured.

MARkErINe eorAro CROPS.

In line with the classic case of the
oyster shippers, cited by President
Hadley of Yale University in his book
on Railroad Transportation. is the case
of the Aroostook potato growers
brought by President Tuttle Of the
Boston and Maine Railroad before the
Senate Comrelttee on Interstate Com
merce. Nothing could better show
how a railroad works for the interest
of the localities which it serves.
A main dependence of the farmers
of the Aroostook region is the potato
crop, aggregating annually eight to
ten million bushels, which find mar
ket largely in Boston and the adjacent
thickly settled regions of New Eng
land. The competition of cheap water
transportation from Maine to all points
along the New England coast keeps
railroad freight rates on these pota-
toes always at very low level.
Potatoes are also considerable out
put of the truck farms of Michigan.
their normal market being obtained in
and through Detroit and Chicago and
other communities of that region.
Not many years ago favoring sun
and rains brought a tremendous yield
of potatoes from the Michigan fields.
At normal rates and prices there
would have been glut of the custom
ary markets and the potatoes would
have rotted on the farms. To help
the potato growers the railroads from
Michigan made unprecedentedly low
rates on potatoes to every reachable
market, even carrying them in large
quantities to place SO remote as Bos-
ton. The Aroostook growers had to
reduce the price on their potatoes and
even then could not dispose of them
unless the Boston and Maine Railroad
reduced it's already low rate, which it
did. By means of these low rates,
making possible low prices, the potato
crops of both Michigan and Maine
were finally marketed. Everybody
eats potatoes, and that year every
body had all the potatoes he wanted.
While the Michigan railroads made
rates that would have been ruinous to
the railroads, had they been applied
to the movement of all potatoes at all
times, to all places. they helped their
patrons to find markets then. The
Boston and Maine Railroad suffered a
decrease III us revenue llou poldtoeS,
but it enabled the Aroostook farmers
to market their crop and thereby to
obtain money which they spent for the
varied supplies which the railroads
brought to them. If the making of
rates were subject to governmental
adjustment such radical and prompt
action could never have been taken,
because it is well established that If
rate be once reduced by railroad
company it cannot be restored through
the red tape of governmental proce-
dure. If the Michigan railroads and
the Boston and Maine Railroad had
been subjected to governmental limi-
tation they would have felt obliged to
keep up their rates as do the railroads
of France and England and Germany
under governmental limitation and let
the potatoes rot E hdn1e.

British Army Poorly Trained.

London, July 11.-Field Marshal
Lord Roberts created a sensation in
the House of Lords yesterday when in
a lengthy and well-considered speech
he deliberately expressed his opinion
as a practical soldier that the military
force of Great Britain was inadequate,
lmperfectly trained and totally unfit
to uphold Great Britain as first-class
power. Lord Roberts did not blame the
government, which, he said. was actu-
ated by a national feeling, but he
scathingly attacked the people of Eng
land, who, he said. showed no national
feeling toward the military until dan

eomez's Wonderful Eyes.

General Maxine Gomez, the Cuban
patriot who died few days ago, was
thus described by one who campaigned
with him before American interven-
ton: "He is a gray little man. His
clothes do not fit WELL and, perhaps,
if you saw it in a photograph. his fig
ure might seem old and ordinary. But
the moment he turns his keen eyes on
you they strike like blow from the
shoulder. You feel the will, the fear
lessness and the experience of men
that is in those eyes, and their owner
becomes a giant before you."

supreme Court Order Partly obeyed in
Denver-Rehearing in the
Case Is Denied.

Denver, July 11.-Following is the
action of the Supreme Court of Colo
rado in the controversy over the Den
yer county Offices:
Denied petition of the ousted Demo
cratic county officials for a rehearing.
Issued an order declaring them
usurpers and not legally entitled to act
as county officers.
Declared that Charles w. Badgley is
treasurer of the city and county of
Denver, and that Christopher G. Grid
Is the assessor for the city and county
of Denver.
Modified its original order SO as to
enter judgment in tho Supreme Court,
thus taking the entire matter out of
the hands of the District Court and
having its orders served by its own
bailiff.
Order affects all the county officers
with the exception of county Judge, in
whose case a petition for rehearing
was not filed with the others, and the
offices of county superintendent of
schools, county surveyor and coroner,
over which cases are now pending.
Sheriff Hamilton Armstrong, Asses
sor Schuyler H. Alexander and Clerk
and Recorder Robert ]. Byrne yester-
day afternoon turned over their offices
at the court house, upon demand, to
Alexander Nisbet, c. c. Gird and A. G..
Vickery, respectively, their successors
in Office, as result Of the Supreme
Court decision.
City and County Treasurer G. S. FL
der turned over the county books, fur
niture and rooms to G. w. Badgley, but
declined to surrender the city tax rolls
and the rooms in the court house where
city business is transacted.
Republican guards were scattered
through every office in the court house
last night, and guards representing
both parties were placed in the dis
puted treasurer's Office.
Treasurer Elder will likely be cited
for contempt by the Supreme Court
this afternoon, and the court will then
be called upon to decide whether the
offices of city and county treasurer are
separate or consolidated offices.

BOAT ON GREEN RIVER
NEW STEAMBOAT, CITY OF MOAB
VIII Hun From Grand River Station on
the D. G r. G. Railroad to
Moab Utah


Had 1t not been for an obstruction In
the Grand river, encountered by the
steamer City of Moab, on its maiden
trip, the little Utah city of that name
would have held the greatest celebra-
tion In It's history by this time, says
the Denver Republican of June 1st
However, the enthusiasm of the resi-
dents over the opening of the Grand,
Green and Colorado rivers to naviga-
tion by the Green-Grand Navigation
Company has not waned in the slight
est, and when tue boat does reach the
city, probabaly within thirty days,
there VIII be rousing demonstration.
j. j. Lumsden, president of the
Green-Grand Navigation Company, and
G. A. Anderson, captain of the "City of
Moab" owned by the company and op-
Grated on the Green and Grand rivers
between Green River station on the
Denver & Rio Grande, and Moab, Utah,
were visitors in Denver yesterday. In
describing the new steamer, a most
unique sort of craft, Mr.. Lumsden
said:
THE City of Moab,' built last season
and launched in April, is fifty-five feet
long and nineteen feet deck beam, has
two decks and can handle from fifty to
sixty tons of freight and from fifty to
sixty passengers. There are ten COM
Portable staterooms and the passenger
accommodations are first class. The
boat is operated by a gasoline marine
engine of sixty horsepower and is cap
able of making from twelve to fifteen
1n iotn FRI
Green River station to the junction of
the Green and Grand rivers is about
140 miles, and from this junction to the
first cataract in the Colorado river the
distance is about five miles. From the
junction Of the Grand and Green rivers
to Moab the distance is about ninety
miles.
"At the present time there is an OBJ
struction in the Grand river about five
miles above the junction which pre-
vents the operation of the boat through
to Moab. This obstruction, however,
does not prevent the operation of the
boat between Green river and the first
cataract on the Colorado river, and as
y is the intention of the company to
dynamite the obstruction in the Grand.
1t is expected that within thirty days
it will be possible to operate the boat
through to Moab. The trip to the cat
aracts and return can be made in four
days and this allows ample opportunity
for stopping along the route, thus en-
abling the tourist to examine the Cliff
Dwellers' remains and other interest
ing points.
1.-THE scenery for the entire distance
is magnificent, walls of the canons in
many places rising to a perpendicular
height of from 1000 to 5000 feet.
About twenty-five miles south of Green
River station the river enters stu
pendous canon and the boat does not
emerge until Moab, on the Grand, is
reachsd The proprietors contemplate
establishing a hotel at point not yet
determined on, in one of the canons for
the accommodation of tourists and ex-
cursonists. 1t is their expectation to
provide these hotel accommodations
before the present season is over.
1.-THE navigation of the river is not
attended with the slightest danger, as
the current does not exceed three miles
per hour.
