CLOSE WATCH ON STEHSLAND
Fear Experienced That the Embez-
zler May Commit Suicide or
Make His Escape.

Washington. Sept From the atti-
tude of certain officials at the state de-
partment it is believed that dispatches
have been received which have made
the Illinois authorities very uneasy
concerning the future conduct of Paul
Stensland the defaulting Chicago bank
president now under arrest in Tangier
It is said that apparently he suffers
great remorse and consequently the
fear is entertained that he may at
tempt suicide before he reaches the
scene Of his defalcatiOn. On the other
hand, there is some fear that Stems
lands depression of spirit is assumed
and that he may have in contemplation
a possible method of escape It is un-
derstood here that since his arrest he
has not been left alone for a moment.
and that this watchfulness will be
maintained throughout the entire jour
ney home.

SHOP
IS DEMANDED
Unexpected Hitch in the Set
tlement of the San Fran
cisco Street Car Trouble.

San Francisco, Sept. AS a result
Of today's developments there is in
prospect deadlock between the Unit
ed Railroads and its employees, who de-
~eided last Wednesday evening to sub
NIT the question of hours and wages
to arbitration. An unexpected compli-
cation has arisen tonight through
demand of the employees for recognf-
ton of the closed shop. which Presi-
dent Patrick Calhoun has refused to
concede. In his reply to the demand
for the closed shop Mr.. Calhoun says:
In reply to the information you
have now given me that certain MEM
berS OF your unions decline to work
with men now in my employ, | cannot
make too clear my unalterable position
that ] viii not discharge any man who
faithfully and efficiently performs his
service TO make place for Some one
else; and l certainly will not do this
at the dictation of any one. Under my
Instructions. however. the fact that no
one employed during the strike will be
discharged will not in any way affect
the hours, wages or class of labor that
the former men returning to work
would have, nor will they in any way
be Disseminated against after their
return.
l. UNDERSTAND lhdI there are only
about twenty men affected by the
question you have now brought up,
and l trust you will find some way to
avoid further difference between us
For. the present, the result of the
questions submitted to arbitration
seems to have been forgotten. President
Richard Cornelius of the Garments
union, with representatives of the af-
filiated organization and w. P. Nc
Cabe, secretary of the labor council.
are tonight considering the reply of
President Calhoun.

Goldfeld, New, Sept. mike Kier-
nan, a miner AZ years of age, who came
here two years ago from Tonopah, was
shot through the abdomen four times
by an unknown man at 3 o'clock this
morning on Fifth avenue, near Hall

ran away. Herman walked half z
block to the Watson House, where he
received medical attention. He died at

thinking he had some rich ore which he
had stolen from one of the mines where

EFFORT TO GET
ADAMS SET FREE
Application for Writ of HabeaS
Corpus Made by OAR
row and Nugent.
Especial to The Herald.)

Boise, Ida, Sept. Though they
knew that something was coming. the
attorneys for the state were surprised
this morning when application was
made before Judge Stewart for the re-
lease of Steve Adams on bail. Adams
was not held under any charge. but re-
NAMED at the penitentiary voluntarily.
Some time ago his brother came here
and attempted TO do something with
him. At the same time there was
woman named Mary Maloney here
from Chicago, and several men identi-
fed as being connected with the West
ern Federation. Then the attorneys
for the defense in the Meyer and Hay
wood case gathered and went away
without disclosing the purpose of their
mission. That was some two weeks ago.

Gays ago, being joined by Richardson.
Former Governor In Case.
The appearance of former Governor
John T. Morrison in this case with OAR
row and Nugent, the latter being at
tOrneys for Meyer and Haywood, was
also a surprise. 1t is recalled now that
he made trip into Oregon on Sept. l.
On the Sd, Lillard, the uncle of Adams.
had an interview with the latter. Lii
lard is from Haines, Ore, and is sup
posed to have come here directly from
that place. He had never shown any
interest in Adams. At no time did he
approach the attorneys for the state on
the subject of his nephew. Why he has
turned UP at this late day asking for
his release without having shown any
desire to have him turned loose is not
known, but theorists are not at a loss
to account for his sudden interest.
NGJsn kzA
The state RETAINED from lodging any
charge against Adams as he was will
ing to stay and as he would be free
witness. His wife has been near him
for a long time, being employed in the
house of the warden. AS he never init
mated any desire to leave the form his
desire takes so unexpectedly causes
some surprise and perplexity While
nothing is known, it is not believed the
state will resist his being released on
this writ.
