BREWERS WILL FIGHT.
Pledge a T'trnd of Million to Oppose
Sunday Closing.

Jefferson City. April 18.--What began
in an effort to enforce the law as his
duty required, is likely to end in a cru
SADIE in which Governor Folk must play
a leading part.
A private message from st. Louis
conveyed the information that the
breweries of st. Louis held a meeting
and discussed the question of Sunday
closing with the result that pledges
were made of contributions aggregating
1 million dollars to fight Sunday clos
ing. The brewers mean to pay a per-
centage of their contribution as the
money is needed, but the limit is to be 1
million dollars. It was agreed that the
best lawyers in St. Louis are to be hired
to prosecute keepers of restaurants,
cigar stores. proprietors of newspapers,
officers and employees of the street rail-
way company and all others who work
during Sunday
The edict is to be sent out that no.
body shall work during Sunday If the
beer saloons shall not be open. De-
mand is to be made that hack drivers
be pulled off their hacks and taken to
the station, newsboys carried to jail
with their Sunday morning papers,
bootblack shops closed and if possible,
railroad trains that do not carry the
mails stopped.
If they cannot sell beer, they will de-
mand the enforcement of blue laws of
every kind.

During the past two weeks the Rock
Island railroad has put about 500 men
to work on the track and balIasting

The wages paid are $1.5O a day for
American laborers and $1.40 per day for
foreign labOrers.
The office of the assistant principal
engineer at Topeka has been receiving
many calls from men who want to go
to work. The men are not hired at the
Topeka Office, and all those who seek
employment on this work of the Rock
Island will either have to go to Kansas
City or write to the agent there who is
in charge Of the hiring of the men for
the work.
J. J. Greer. whose Office is in the New
York Life building is in charge of the
matter of hiring men for the Kansas
division, and Peterson and Fell, at room

secretary Loeb WIN start on His
Trail When First Courier Arrives.

Glenwood Spring. Colo, April IS
Before President Roosevelt penetrates
the wilds so far that communication
with the outside world will be next to
impossible, Secretary Loeb with the
aid of the courier daily expected from
the camp will get on the presidents
trail and visit him in the mountains
The visit will be for the purpose OF
taking up with the president a num-
Der of important matters that nave
come to the headquarters here since
Saturday. There are number OF
commissions to be signed, as Wen as
departmental business that has been
forwarded.
Many Invitations have come to Sec
rotary Loeb and members Of the OIL
ciaI party stopping at the Hotel Colo
RADIO to take excursions into the sur
rounding territory in order to view
sights of interest. All of these have
been declined or postponed until the
arrival of the courier from the presi-
the presidents camp with the courier
and he may spend a night in camp.
Horseback rides, bathing in the hot
water pool. tennis and mountain
climbing occupied the party yester-
day.
During the week it is planned to
take an excursion down the valley
over the Colorado Midland railroad
to see some private irrigation pro-
jects. An engine will be attached to
the private car Rocket" and the trip
will be madeN in that manner.
Wild stories of the hunt. most of
them fakes, have reached here. Sec
rotary Loeb does not credit them.
Several of these stories have been
investigated and it has been discover
ed that the tale-bearer could not have
received reliable information from
the presidents camp, for he could
have had no opportunity.
An illustration of the dearth of
authentic news or picture material
was noticed about mile from the
Hotel Colorado. A photographer rep
resenting a syndicate selling pictures
to daily newspapers attached a wire
to the telegraph line running through
a wild section of the mountain coun-
try and then attached a telegraph in
strument from the wire, using a
stump of a tree as a table. An as
sistant then posed for a picture which
viii be sold to newspapers in alleged
representation of the manner in which
news is sent from the vicinity of the
presidents camp. AS a matter OF

AMERICANS ARE SHUT OUT.
They VIII Not Be Permitted to ODer-
ate in Newfoundland Waters.

St. Johns. N. F., April 1S.-The up
per house OF the colonial legislature
has passed Premier Bonds bin ex-
Guiding American fishermen from
Newfoundland waters. The bill pro
vides that American fishing vessels
found within three miles of the coast
of Newfoundland with bait supplies or
outfit purchased at any port in the is
land shall be seized and forfeited, to-
gether with their cargoes. The task
of proving that the supplies were not
purchased in Newfoundland is made
to devoIve upon the captain of the
vessel. The bill was amended so as
to permit the suspension of its opera
ton at the discretion of the govern
ment. The vote in adoption of the
measure was 10 to s.
Some members advocated a per
manent law to exclude all Americans
and the abandonment of all reciprocitv
negotiations with the United States.
They argued in support of that plan
that it would be more advantageous to
! Newfoundland fishing interests.
The governors assent to the bill is
expected before the end of the week,
permitting the enforcement of the new
/ law.

IT SAVES SHAW.
Civil Service Commission Rescues Sec
rotary from Coachman.

Washington, April 1s.-The recent
employment by the government Of an
alleged grave digger as coachman to
Secretary of Treasury Shaw under
certification from the civil service
commission resulted in the issuance of
statement by Commissioner Cooley.
The statement defends the three
names certified from which Secretary
Shaw could choose. It shows that the
alleged grave digger was for many
years coachman to the superintendent
of government hospital for insane,
and Mr.. Cooley states there could be
no criticism of his ability to perform
the duties of coachnan.
Mr.. Cooley then proceeds to show
that the fourth name on the eligible
list, Robot B. Shepard, was the one
Secretary Shaw apparently wanted to
reach. According to Mr.. Shepard s
sworn statement he had not driven a
horse for several years.
Mr. Cooley concludes as follows:
"Our action in this case was dictated
solely by a desire to q ard the secre-
tary Of the treasury from possible
physical injury at the hands Of the
apparently inexperienced driver who
was being forced upon. him by po-
liticaI influences"
