RAILROAD MEN EXPRESS
ATTITUDE ON RATES
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
WASHINGTON May 14.-The con-
clusion adopted by the International
Railway congress which closed its
seventh session here yesterday, were
officially announced today. The most
interesting of the conclusions related
to railroad rates. on which, after a
prolonged discussion in which every
country in which railroads were oper-
ated was represented, the congress
unanimously expressed it's conclusions
as follows:
Tariffs should be based on COM
mercial principles, taking into account
the special conditions which bear up
on the commercial value of the SER
vices rendered. With the reservation
that rates shall be charged without
arbitrary discrimination TO all ship
pers alike under like conditions. max
ing of rates should as far as possible
have all the elasticity necessary to
permit the development of the traffic
and to produce the greatest results to
the public and to the railroads them-
selves"

AND is DEFEATED
DRESBECK'S CUD HIS UNDOING
Victim of Bandits Fires Shot With
Revolver But Misses, and
Thugs Relieve Him
of Ii

Two bold bad men crouching in a
secluded place on Twelfth street, near
Figueroa, shortly after 12 o'clock last
night awaited the first victim that
might pass. They heard the rather
faint footsteps of D. o. Dresbeck, and
when they looked out and saw that he
was by no means young man and of
rather small stature, they decided that
he was their prey.
Dresbeck lives at 11412 West Four
teenth street and was vending his way
homeward, unconscious of impending
danger, when he was suddenly attacked
by two men, who jumped upon him
from behind a tree. AS Dresbeck eX-
pressed it, neither man pulled a gun,
but tried to "jiu-j jitsu" him.
A short scuffle followed, and Dresbeck
was getting decidedly the worst of it,
when he suddenly pulled out his re-
volver and fired. The shot did not hit
either man, but one of them turned
and fled. The other remained and
grappled with Dresbeck to gain possess
sion Of the pistol. The highwayman
finally won, and after taking Dres-
becks gun ran away.
When Dresbeck reported the matter
to the police, he said that he could have
him had it not been for the fact that
he was chewing tobacco, the juice of
which choked him.

May festivals at the Temple auditorium

opportunity in many years to make
personal acquaintance with one of the
most famous figures in the world of

career reads like a romance, and whose

anyones since Wagner.

He has been a musician ever since he
could stand alone. When a mere child,
he was enraptured by the band of the
Kings Life Guards, and to him, the
slide trombone was the embodiment of
all that was musical He begged his
father for one, and soon mastered II,
though he was then so small that he
had to attach a handle to it to work
the slide. At fourteen, young Innes ran
away from home and was soon enrolled
as solo trombonist in the very band he
had worshipped. His career in this
band won him worldwide fame, and
Patrick Gilmore, the nestor of all band
masters, soon had him over to America,
where he took first rank in the band of
that great leader.

Former Tax Collector Says He Spent

By Associated Press.

BAKERSFIELD, May 14.-Edward
]. Smith. the defaulting San Fran
cisco tax collector. accompanied by
Detective Wren and Pinkerton De-
tective Carter, were on board the over
land express that reached the Santa
Fe depot at 2:3O p. m. today.
When the train came to a stop
there was crowd of newspaper rep
resentatiVes about the station with
camera men from San Francisco pa
pers, all hoping to secure an inter-
view or a snapshot of the late fugi-
tive, but Smith disappointed them, as
he refused to leave the train and what
little he ate was sent in to him by the
detectives.
II have nothing TO say" said
Smith to a reporter, "I am under ar
rest and in charge of officers and ]
will tell my story to the proper of,
ficials in San Francisco"
TT is reported that you have a
large sum of money cached in San
Francisco" suggested the reporter.
He GambIed in Wall Street
II will make no statement about
that or anything else" replied Smith
do not ask me to talk, please, am
facing a criminal prosecution and !
will not make any statement at this
time"
In conversation with Detective
Wren, Smith said that when he
reached San Francisco he would tell
everything to Chief of Police Dinan.
He confessed to have taken $60,0OC
of the citys money, but in every
conversation he absolutely denied that
any considerable portion of this mon
ey was squandered on women. The
money that he had misappropriated
had been spent in speculation, largely
in stock gambling, and almost the en-
tire amount was squandered before he
left San Francisco. He had GAM
bled in Wall street through agents and
losing heavily, he had gone from bad
to worse, appropriating more and
more of the city funds in the hope OF
making good the shortage. When the
day of settlement of taxes drew near
at hand and he saw that exposure
was inevitable, he resolved upon
flight.

buried at Mount Vernon and my tomb
stone on another mans grave. I would

Mr.. Mahaffy Is visiting in Mount
Vernon. BY new state law county
commissioners are authorized to put
markers at soldiers graves when not
marked by their families. Some one
seems to have reported Mahaffy dead
and his marker was placed.
The matter win be referred to the
commissioners Of Knox county, who
will probably remove the tombstone
and inform Mr. Mahaffy that Il will
be held subject to his death.

transports of the Russian fleet

and examined the British steamer
Stettin which was passing.
According to the French official re-
port Vice Admiral RojestvensKy prom

"The latest kilograms from Indo-

seven cruisers, two torpedo boat de-
stroyers and four converted cruisers.
"Since the appearance of the Rus

become a base for the transportation
of military supplies for Vice Admiral

| After Gilmore's training, Innes started
a band of his own. He had absorbed
from Gilmore the faculty for pleasing
the public, and the idea of great mus
ical festivals, such as Gilmore gave
during the Peace jubilee in Boston ir
1872, but soon saw that the ordinary
military band was not fitted for such
affairs, as they demand quality Of
music which the usual band cnnot
produce.
Not daunted, Innes set about the
gigantic task Of creating a band that
could fill these strenuous requirements
This has been his own greatest achieve
ment and today his band stands alone
as the embodiment of that idea-of an
organization without the limitations OF
an orchestra as to travelling, and be-
yond the scope Of the usual military
or brass" band. In the Innes organ
ization, the wood-wind instruments
such as clarinets, oboes, basoons and the
like, carry the violin parts Of an or
chestra, and the brass is regulated to
it's proper place in the rear.
1t has taken Innes many years to
train men to the point where they are
able to grasp his ideas and accomplish
his wishes, but he has done it.

EMPORIA, Kas., May 14.-Santa Ft
passenger train No. II was ditched by
train wreckers a mile east of town at
2:30 this morning. Six passengers were
injured and two will probably die.

e. A. Grover, fireman, Topeka;
thrown from cab and back and shoul-
ders injured.
Fourth Attempt Succeeds
This is the fourth attempt in the last
four months to wreck passenger trains
in the same place. Previous attempts
were made by piling ties on the track
and were without serious results.
The wreck today was caused by re-
moving the spikes and fishplates of two
rails on the inside of a curve. The
engine passed over the loose rail safely,
but the mail car left the track and was
dragged hundred yards along the en-
bankment before the train was stopped.
The next five cars, the express and
baggage cars, the smoker and two
coaches went into the ditch. The end
of the baggage car went up in the air
with enough force to ground the tele-
graph wires. Two Pullman sleepers
remained on the tracks.
The passengers were asleep when the
wreck occurred and became greatly
excited, but soon formed a wrecking
crew and went to the relief of the men
in the overturned baggage car. A
window was broken and of seven men
in the car, six were found injured
Stretchers were made from car doors
and the wounded were carried to near
by field, where hospital was impro-
vised.
An hour after the wreck a relief
train arrived from Emporia and the
injured were taken to Emporia. A
hundred workmen were put to work
on the track and it was cleared for use
again this afternoon.
There is no clew to the wreckers.
Three men were seen last night near
the Howard branch section house. This
morning track wrench and clawbar
were missing and they were found in a
pool of water near the wreck today.
