THE POPE SECURITIES.
Taking up the lis: of securities held by the
Metropolitan shown by their annual report
to the superintendent, Mr.. Hughes discussed an
item of second preferred stock in the Pope Man
ufacturing Company showing a market value of
$247, 500. Mr.. Hegenran admitted that the stock
was not worth this in the market but ex-
plained that the company had guarantee of
30 per cent and interest guarantee which was
subsequently made good. Mr. Hughes clung
to the point that the stock had been put down
at high valuation in the report, while it was
in reality worth only ID in the market. He
then attempted to probe the facts about the
guarantee. Mr.. Hegeman explained he would
tell the committee privately about it. but de-
sired TO be excused from making public state
ment Then there was n brief meeting during
which Mr.. Hegen1an and John G. Miiburn ex-
plafued the incident to the committee Later
Mr. Hughes declared himself satisfied and ex-
planned that the reasons did not concern any
thing that could be pertinent To an insurance
investigation.
There was an unconfrmed suggestion that
the fact that the guarantee was not made good
until last month might have shown the influ
ence of the insurance investigation. but some
further statement is expected to-day. when
Mr. Hegeman will resume the stand.

friends as a model of propriety and
honesty. His position was one Of re-
sponsibility and trust. His engage
ment to young woman, we'll known
in society in this city, was recently
announced, and he was soon to have
been married
According to the confession he
signed the crime was all his own from
its inception to it's execution. He had
made arrangements to dispose of the
stocks and bonds which he had stolen,
but at the time of his arrest not one
of them had been hypothetical by
him.
After he had completed and signed

been for several years trusted employee
of Halle & stieglitz and lived quietly
with his mother in Harlem. He is
about % years old. Leonard told the

the theft some three or four months ago
and had been planning during that time
to execute it and show how easy such
a scheme could be practiced on the

MINING NOTES.

The interesting scientific fact thai
nothing which falls into the deepest
shaft of the Calumet & Hecla mine, the
deepest in the world, ever reaches the
bottom has been demonstrated at the
Red Jacket shaft. Every article nc
matter what shape or size it may be
is invariably found clinging to the
east side of the shaft.
M. e. Matthias and J. B. McFadden
working night shift in the Saginaw
mine, near Deadwood, were found dead
in the tunnel. They had been killed
by a premature blast.
Suits in which more than 100 far
mers are involved were begun recently
against the smelters of the Amalga
mated Copper company at Anaconda
for damages aggregating about ST.,
100000 for alleged destruction of crops
and live stock in the Deer Lodge
valley as the result of the smelter
smoke from the Washoe and Ana
conda plants.
Lake Pend d'Oreille mining region
is experiencing greater activity than it
has known for some time on account
OF the erection of the Panhandle
smelter near Standpoint, Idaho.
Ellis & Ludwig, near Greenhorn,
Idaho, who have lease and bond on
the Don Juan mine, are running five
stamps on ore from the old workings,
above the tunnel level, and are getting
good results. AS soon as d plate can
be secured for the other battery they
will run 10 stamps
Two shifts of miners have been
placed at work on the Sunrise group
OF Line claims, yocated on the north
side of Sunset peak, near Wallace, Ida.
Last week the CRANKY smelter treat
ed more ore than ever before in its
history.
Stockholders of the Mckinley mine
situated on the Salmon river near
Lucille, Idaho, have received reports
OF the first run made by the one stamp
mill that was recently installed on
the property. AS trial run 500 tons
OF ore was put through the mill
This gave returns of $63 in free gold

$42. The ore was taken from the 4OC
foot level.
Ben Schultz of Nez Perez and his
associates Of Uniontown, Wash, who
recently purchased the North Star
mine in Buffalo Hump, have started
development work and are said to have
good showing.
The American Smelling & Rein
ing company has purchased a site al

Judge Was Mobbed.

Denver, Col. Oct. 3.-The spectacle
of a member of the judiciary being
dragged about by mob and forced to
rescind an official order, ended a day
of turmoil at Brighton, Col. the county
seat of Adams county, adjoining the
city limits of Denver.
A. P. Guthiel, county judge, hailed
the mayor and the marshal sssnd mem
bers of the town council before him
and lectured them for their alleged
neglect of duty in the enforcement of
gambling ordinances and Sunday liquor
selling ordinances.
In addition to this he ordered the
sheriff and marshal to gather the slot
machines in the town of Brighton and
when they reported later that they
could only find one, Judge Guthiel
deputized two men to- ARREST them for
contempt. In the meantime, both the
sheriff and the marshal disappeared
The report of the judges action con-
corning the two peace officers spread
through the town and caused much ex-
element Citizens began to gather on
the streets, and, fearing for his personal
safety, Judge Guth1el boarded a Union
Pacific freight engine as it was pulling
train slowly through the town. He
ordered the engineer to uncouple the
engine from the train, it is said, and
run to this city with him, threatening
legal action unless the engineer com.
piled with the order.
The latter refused to obey the demand
and, while they were discussing the
matter, mob gathered around the en-.
CINE and Judge Guthiel was dragged
from the cab. He was told that he
must rescind his order of arrest against
the sheriff and marshal and upon being
assured that he had already done So
the judge was released by the mob and
allowed to proceed to this city on q
passenger train later.
Judg eGuthiel has been at war al.
most constantly with other county off.

about year ago, and has had the
officials and members of the bar before
him time and time again on the charge
of contempt.

HOLDUP ON THE
GREAT NORTHERN

Seattle, WASH, Oct. 3.-The Great
Northern overland train, leaving Seat
tie at $3.50 Monday night. was held up
and the baggage and cypress car dyna-
mited five miles from Ballard at 8:45.
1t was IL o'clock before the train
pulled into Edmonds, and only the
most meager report was sent to the
Seattle Office.
Three men are known to have done
the work. Two boys, who got on the
blind baggage here, as soon asSthe hold
up began, entered the passenger coaches
and began holding up the passengers.
They were captured. They say two
of the men were on the blind baggage
when they got on and the third got on
ia Ballard.
All were dressed in rain coats and
SLOUGH hats.
So far as reported no one has been
killed, but it is reported Charles An
derson, express messenger, is injured.
Manager I. Waring of the Great
Northern Express company says he
does not know how much money the
messenger carried, but believes the
amount was small.
After securing the contents of the
safe the three men started off in an
easterly direction. 1t is believed other
members of the gang are ahead Of the
scene of the holdup and the robbers
joined them.
The train was tagged near the brick
yard, and as the engineer slowed up
two of the men, wearing rainooats,
revolvers to his head.
Then the engineer and fireman were
marched to the baggage car door.
The messenger was commanded to
open the door, and, refusing, an extra
heavy charge of dynamite was placed
against it and exploded. The explosion
tore the car almost to pieces. The
was held two and half hours and then
pulled into Edmonds, where report
was sent before continuing to Everett.
The two boys were taken along.
Conductor Grants report of the hold
up shows that at least seven men were
engaged in the robbery. While the
robbers were engaged on the safe, the
two boys who had been riding ON the
blind baggage slipped off and went
through the train. attempting to hold
up the passengers. They had no guns,
but took advantage of the timidity of
the passengers, while the shooting was
going on outside. Conductor Grant
found the boys before they had secured
much money and captured them. One
was recognized as Babe" Little, a no.
torious Seattle sneak thief.
Between Ballard and Everett there is
no night office and for nearly three
hours after the rumor of the robbery
Great Northern officials had lost the
train and knew nothing of it's where
abouts, Or the circumstances of the
robbery.
The boys claim they never met the
holdups until they got on the train and
are in on way connected with their
work. The idea to holdup the passen-
gers occurred OF them after the explos-
ion. A special train, with sheriff s
posse, has started for the scene.

DEPoslToRs ARE TO SHARE,
In Profits of Mutual Bank In the City
of Chicago.

III FioI@S w H0audt Bank IN lne lily
of Chicago.
Chicago.-An original idea in a
banking, profit sharing plan, was put
in force when the Mutual bank opened
recently. Depositors and stockholders
are to share alike in the profits. I'm.
der the plan, which is cooperative,
the bank is to pay per cent on saw
ings deposits and per cent to stock
holders, and then the profits are to be
divided equally between depositors
and stockholders. The officers and di-
rectors take the position that de-
positors are the backbone of the bank,
and the policy of profit sharing will
promote closer business relations be-
tween the bank and it's patrons, with
mutual benefit
The organization of the new bank
has been accomplished with view to
inspiring public confidence through
the prominence of it's officers and di-
rectors. Each of the stockholders, di-
rectors and officers is identified with
large business concerns, and has an
assured standing. Inc Mutual starts
with a capital Of $250,000 and a sur
plus Of $4,000.

congressman Fear Problem This
Session.
The fight over the army canteen
promises to come to the front again
when congress meets. 1t was abolish
ed at all the posts and the homes Of
the old soldiers several years ago. The
temperance societies and the church
influence were responsible for the ac-
ton taken by congress- Nine out Of
10 commanders of the posts testified
that it would be better to maintain the
canteen, in which the soldiers could
get beer and light wines, but the op-
position seemed to think it was not
the right sort of business for Uncle
Sam to be engaged in. Most of the
saloon keepers agreed with the re-
ligious and antiwhisky people. The
officers predicted that drunkenness
would greatly increase after the aboli-
ton of the canteen, and all the infor-
nation now being received at the war
department goes to show that they
were right.

TRAINS in COLLISION !
CARS HURLED down EMBANK.
MENT AT ST. PAUL, MINI.
500 Line Passenger Train CoIides
With Great Western Stock Train
One Passenger Killed and Five Seri-
ousIy lnjured-Defect in Air Brakes
the Cause--Wreck Caught Fire.

st. Paul, Mimi, Oct. "A 500 line
passenger train from the east, leaving
the Union passenger station, collided
with a Chicago, Great Western fast
stock train at the North street viaduct
The force OF the collision sent five of
the passenger cars down 25 foot en-
bankment. One passenger is dead and
five were seriously injured, while a
score of more were slightly bruised
That no more were killed or injured is
due to the fact that the train was
nearly empty, having discharged the
greater number of it's passengers at
the Union station here.
Dead and Injured.
The dead:
Mrs. Clara M. Croft, Minneapolis.
The seriously injured:
Mrs. Dutch, Minneapolis.
Mrs. Thompson.
H. S. Moore, Montreal, Canada.
Mrs. Wilkinson, Minneapolis.
Mr.. Martin, Minneapolis.
The slightly injured:
Hall Wilkinson, Minneapolis; Mr.
Wilkinson, Minneapolis, father of Hall

N. Y; Cyrus Berglund, New York city !;
G. ]. keenan,, New York city; Miss
Grughlin, New York; w. E. Haskell
and wife, Boston; William M. Hall,
Minneapolis.
1t is feared that two or three of the
seriously injured may die. Mr.. Mar
tin, who has fractured skull, is in a
critical condition.
Twenty were treated at the Union
depot by surgeons, and nearly all of
them were able to go home or continue
their journey to Minneapolis.
w. Z. Haskell, who is among those
slightly injured, formerly owned the
Minneapolis Times, but is now con-
nected with a Boston newspaper.
Air Brakes Fail to Work.
The direct cause of the accident was
the failure of the air brakes on the
stock train to work. The 500 line pas
senger train had just left the depot
for Minneapolis and was crossing the
Chicago-Great Western tracks, about
lOuF DlOCkS east OIL the STATION. Inc
track at this point runs along high
embankment. The fast Great Western
stock train, coming along at pretty
good speed, struck the passenger
train in the middle. The Pullman
coaches were hurled over the embank-
ment, landing upside down in a
wrecked heap, Is feet below. The
wreckage caught fire, but it was ex-
tinguished promptly. A squad of police
and all the hospital ambulances, along
with a large corps of surgeons, were
on the spot in a short time and the in
jured were quickly taken from the
wreck to this city.
