EXPERTS NAMED.
To Value All the Real Estate Held by
the Equitable.

New York, Aug. 4.-Two experts
have been appointed by President
Morton to value every piece of real
estate in which the Equitable society
has an interest says the Tribune. He
is stated to have taken this action
when he received the reports of ex-
pert accountants. These reports, it
is alleged indicate the possibility ~
extensive generalization. The society
owns in this country and abroad real
estate valued at approximately $36.-
100000. According to the Tribune, it
is thought possible this amount will
have to be reduced, while the valua-
ton on parcels in which the loans are
outstanding may have to be reduced
by at least 10 per cent.

DIRT ON THE TRACK.
Causes Wreck of a Santa Fe Passenger
Train.

Pasadena. Cal, Aug 4.-Santa Fe
local passenger train No. Al. loaded
with passengers from San Bernardino
and Redlands, was wrecked within a
few hundred yards of the station in
this city. Two persons were injured.
Dirt piled on the track at Union
street by workmen grading the street
caused the engine to leave the track.
The engine struck a telegraph pole
and rolled over into the ditch. The
mail car also left the track, but re-
manned on its trucks.
George Luce, the engineer was
caught between the engine and the
tender For more than thirty minutes,
while a score of men were attempting
to jack the engine up and extricate
him, he stood watching them at their
work and directing them. Toward
the last the pain grew unbearable and
he became so weak and faint that it
was necessary to hold him up. His
foot was badly crushed. Robert Bill
derain, the fireman, was burned by
being thrown up against the hot fire.
box, and received serious bruises.

WAY IS CLEARED.
Canadian Troops Can Now Come Into
the United States.

Washington, Aug. 4.-The state de-
partment today telegraphed the British
ambassador and the American consul
general at Ottawa that the governors of
New Hampshire, Vermont and Massa-
chusetts have formally consented to
passage through those states for the
Forty third Canadian regiment (the
Duke of CornwalPs OWN who are now
IN Ottawa waiting to proceed to visit
Boston and Providence. The only re-
striction is in Massachusetts where the
state law of 1902 prohibits the assembly
of visiting troops for drill or parade.
The telegram to the ambassador was
addressed to him both at New York and
the summer home of the embassy at
Lenox.

NEW MYERS RUMOR.
1t Is That He Is Seeking Brady's Help
at Last.

There is a rumor that Vice President
L. E. Myers of the Topeka street rail-
way is trying to interest Brady of the
Consumers gas company in the pur-
chase of the Edison electric illuminat-
ing plant. Myers is reported to be in
New York at the present time for that
purpose.
When Myers left here he stated
that he would be back inside of Sxo
weeks to conclude the terms which
would lead to a turning over of the
plant. But the two weeks elapsed
some time ago. Apparently Myers is
having some difficulty in raising the
remaining amount of the purchase
price. Attorney T. F. Doran, who is
acting as legal advisor for Myers,
stated that he expected Myers in the
city within a week. 81 don't know
anything about that rumor. I don't
think that there is any truth in it.
OF course it is impossible to tell what
may be the foundation of a rumor- 1
have not received any intimation that
that was the case.

Toxic, Aug. 4.-The bulk of the

A report giving details os the ftial

can independent cavalry column on
the afternoon of July %, attacked the
enemy south of Paleo and routed him,

field guns beside a number of rifles and
quantity of ammunition.
'On July %. the cavalry being rein
forced, vigorously pursued the Rus
SLAMS. The enemy halted at OnOl, 25
miles south of Taylan, and at 5
o'clock on the morning of July 80
sent a letter under a flag of truce, to
the Japanese commanding officer from
General Liapnoff, the Russian gov
ernor, saying that the lack of bandage
material and medicines and the conse-
quent inability to succor the wounded,
compelled him from a sense of human
ity to terminate hostilities.
The commander of the Japanese
force replied, demanding the delivery
of all war supplies, and property of
the Russian government uninjured and
the delivery of all maps, records and
| papers relating to the Russian civil
and military administrations and re-
quiring their delivery at 10 o'clock on
the morning of July 81, otherwise an

CAPPED FUSES IN HOLD
Attempt to Blow Up Ship in Mid
Ocean.

San Francisco, Aug. Am at
tempt to blow up a ship in mid-ocean
has been reported by Captain Louise
of the French ship Asnieres which
has arrived here from Swansea, Eng
land, loaded with coal. In the middle
of February when far out at sea, a
quantity of capped fuses, such as are
used by miners to explode charges of
dynamite. were discovered in the hold
of the ship among the coal. Had one
of the fuses become ignited the ship
undoubtedly would have been blown
to atoms. Two or three of them had
exploded but fortunately at points
where there was no gas and conse-
quently no damage was done.

GOVERNOR ADAMS IDEA.
Colorado's Popular Resident Says
Kansas Is All Right.

Kansas Is All RlgnC.
In addressing the association of vet
erans Ex-Governor Alva Adams of Col
orado said in part:
There is nothing the matter with
Kansas. The very winds that sweep
over its prairies are charged with pat
riotism. 1t was from Kansas soil that
old Osawatomie Brown drew inSpira-
ton and the moral courage to assail the
institution of slavery with % men. KAN
sas is a state where men dare to be
free, dare to be cranks, dare to stand
for the rights OF men, alone with the
Almighty. 1t was your Kansas COVER
ncr who took UP the fight against the
greatest monopoly of the age. That he
may not have won the first engage
ment does not stamp the movement as
defeat.
Great armies cannot remain idle.
Battleships are a temptation to test
their powers. The boy who carries q.
chip on his shoulders gets into many
unnecessary difficulties. Military power
is the nations substitute for justice.
When justice reigns the mission Of the
soldier ends. The big stick Is well
enough when dealing with buccaneers
and law breakers, but to obtrude it
where brothers meet and friendly ma
tiOnS confer is a survival Of barbariSm.
Let us ring out the age of the bully
and ring in the age of the golden rule.
In the turbulent days of Dodge City
and the west, he who carried no weapon
was in no personal danger. A nation
that carried no arms would be respect
ed for its courage and would never be
invaded. To protect such a nation the
moral influence Of the world would be
united and no war lord would dare in
vade it's territory nor trespass upon it's
rights. Switzerland has no army, but
even the great kaiser dare not send a
soldier across it's boundary. Before
Columbus sailed little Portugal had
planted its flag upon the Madeiras and
other isles and then upon the pathways
Of the seas, and, unprotected for more
than 400 years, no nation has had the
temerity to put down the Portuguese
flag Those who are prepared for and
look for a fight usually find it. Half

ASKS $4,000 FOR injuries.
Santa Fe Fireman Had His Body and
Feelings Hurt by Coal.

F. w. McQueary. formerly a fireman
on the road, has commenced suit against
the Santa Fe railroad. He alleges that
while he was employed in this capacity
on one of the companies engines that
on account of a defective coal shute that
he was buried under four tons of coal
that he remained there for some time,
this his feelings were lacerated, his
body bruised, his nerves racked, and
that all in ali he suffered great mental
and bodily anguish, which has inca
pacitated from from following his call
ing and earning a livelihood.
He further claims that these injuries
are permanent and that he will be an
invalid the remainder of his life He
thinks that $4,000 will be about right.
