CHICAGO. June t7--Negotlations for
the ending of the teamsters' strike were
reopened late this afternoon, and on
Monday q conference will be held be-
tween the strikers and j. V. Farwell,

matters of this kind for the employers.
President Shea of the teamsters'
union will not be a member of the COM
mission who will meet Mr.. FarweH,
nor will any members of the old strike
commission who are friendly to Mr.
Shea. 1t is probable that unless there
is an agreement on Monday a strike of
the freight handlers employed in the
different freight depots will result on
July 1.
for an increase in wages amounting to
about 10 per cent.
The investigation by the grand jury
developed nothing, but promises of
sensation are being made by the states
attorney. Fi
Two men were instantly killed by

CAUGHT WHILE BREAKING
INTO HARRIMAN'S HOUSE
Burglars Surprised While Attempting
to Force Entrance Into Rail-
road Magnate's Mansion
BY Associated Press. .

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June H.-Three burg
lars have been surprised while in the
act of breaking into the Fifth avenue
residence of E. H. Hartman, the rail-
road magnate. After an exciting chase,
in which two pistol shots were fired,
one of the men was captured. Resi-
dents of the fashionable quarter were
much excited by the shooting.
A house detective employed in the ex-
elusive hotel just opposite Mr.. Harri-
mans home discovered THE thieves.
Two Of them were at work on the base
ment door and a third was acting as
lookout. A policeman who arrived at
the moment joined the chase. The look
out escaped, but after a sharp chase,
during which the policeman used his
revolver, one of the other men was cap
tured. He gave information which
later resulted in the arrest of another
man and boy. t..-...
The Hartman family was not in the
house and the burglars would probably
have been richly rewarded had they
not been so opportunely discovered.

FINANCIAL WORRY
CAUSES SUICIDE
SALT LAKE MANUFACTURER
DRINKS ACID
COULD NOT FACE CREDITORS
Ended His Life In Room Of Friend
In His Absence, Explaining
Action by Note Left on
Dresser

Worried almost to distra ction be-
cause his draft for $50 was not honored
ty the Fidelity Trust company and be-
cause he could not pay his creditors
what he owed them II. 1. Barber, a ce-
ment building block manufacturer of
Salt Lake City, committed suicide last
| night by taking carbolic acid at the
room of friend at 1886 Winston street.
Since June 2, when Barber came to
Los Angeles, he has been a guest at the
Lankershim, where 1t Is said he paid
his bills promptly Shortly after COM
ing to Los Angeles Barber became in
terested in a machine for manufactur-
ing cement building blocks, which he
thought was a better one than the one
he advertised.
He became acquainted with McMur-
trie, manufacturer of the machine, and
induced him to give him a position.
Last night he went to McMurtrie's s
room to make final arrangements re-
garding his employment, but was told
that McMurtrie had gone to the theater.
Taking a pencil from his pocket, Bar
ber hurriedly wrote letter explaining
This reason for suicide and placed it
upon the dresser in McMurtrie's room.
He then swallowed quantity of car
bolic acid.
When McMurtrie and his wife re-
turned home they found Barber alive,
but in great agony A physician was
summoned, but Barber died within a
few minutes after his arrival.
Barber was about 90 years of age and
a native of Utah.
found the following note upon the
dresser, which is the only message left
by the suicide:
Dear Friends. The Fidelity Trust com
pany went back on my draft for $50 1
tional bank and they insisted on having
their pay today The Pettyjohn people
have not sent what belongs to me. and so
was unable to pay the bank, and you
know what that means. I have been up
against it pretty hard for the last three
years, and | am getting tired of It and
with the outlook in going for you and
am satisfied had they given me a few
days time I could have arranged every
thing all right. and could have gone for
ward and made some money for both
of us.
But this continual worry can stand no
longer and am going to end it all Kindly
think well of me. There are directions
in my book should anything happen to
me- Will you see that they are carried
out. 1t will grieve three or four very
dear friends and my mother, but could
they know what 1 have been through
during the last three years, they would
not blame me for wishing to take a rest
and so end it all.
have tried to be friendly with all and
have always done a good turn where
possible, but I have not always received
the same in return. But it is all right;
[ am sorry it has come to this but 1
have nothing. The hotel people want
their pay, the bank wants their pay, and
and so / will have to suffer. and so will
end all. What they do with my body L
do not care. My mother will say
Now good-by, and thank you for your
good intentions.

WASHINGTON REAssuRED
Germany Declares Negotiations Are
Proceeding With Good Will

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, June 17.-Reassur-
ing advices reached Washington today
from official sources regarding the
Moroccan negotiations at Paris, which,
while they indicate that war between
Germany and France is improbable,
indicate the extreme delicacy of the
situation. Berlin takes a much more
optimistic view of the situation than
Paris Germany claims that the ne
gotiations. are proceeding with the ut
most good will on both sides and with
the probability of an early settlement
of all existing difficulties. Paris also
processes good will and spirit of ex-
treme friendliness, but is unable to
foresee the outcome and is exceedingly
anxious to find out what is back of
Morocco and what are Germany's real
intentions.
This is the light in which the situa
tion has been presented to Washington.
Diplomats here attach considerable
significance to the promptness and
frankness with which Emperor William
dent Roosevelt informed of each deVel-
opment in the situation and to the care
which both have taken to present their
respective positions in full at the White
House. In the event of the failure Of
the Paris negotiations European am
bassadors tonight expressed the belief
that the president may be called upon
for assistance. Both Germany and
France, who are refraining from any
direct effort to draw in the United
States, know informally that this gov
ernment does not consider American in
terests in Morocco sufficient to warrant
any initiative on the part of the presi-
dent regarding the invitation of the sui
tan to the powers to participate in an
International conference.
American acceptance of that invita-
ton will be on condition that the pow
ers signatory to the Madrid convention
are in favor of such a conference.
At the French embassy no cable
grams had been received today about
the negotiations, but M. Jusserand,
the French ambassador, in the course
Of a conversation said:
"You may be sure that France is
conducting these negotiations with sin
cerity and good will. We earnestly
hope for satisfactory settlement. The
delicacy of the situation precludes a
detailed discussion. however"
