is 30x15 miles and the natives are OF a
mixed race claiming to be distinct race
of the Chimooras. There are no Fill
pinOs On this island In addition to being
the United States naval station 1t is also
the main cable office Of the Pacific. The
natives are a peace-lOy1ng, free-hearted
people who are imbUed with Socialistic
ideas to such an extent that when one
has anything he willingly shares 1t with
his fellows. Those who work for the gov
eminent receive good pay, carpenters re-
ceiving $3.50 per day thieXtcdO and the
men working on the road for A-5O per day.
The natives have their small pieces OF
land which they cultivate for the raising

They also raise caribou, chickens and

teachers is Of the best and the natives

deal for them. The only export from the
island is cOcOanuS and the trading is
mostly done with Japan To America the
island is good for nothing but a naval

have the balance Of the trade as all the
merchant ships that stop there are Jap

HARD SHEDDING FOR THE RAILROAD RATE MEASURE
Majority of the Republicans Senate Committee Opposed to
the Hepburn Bill and viii Not Allow 1t to
Be Reported.

Washington, Feb. 13-There were in
dications at the meeting of the senate
committee on interstate commerce that
an amendment would be proposed tonor-
row on which supporters of the court
review feature for railroad rate legis-
lauon may agree. The phraseology of
the amendment has not been determined,
but may be decided upon at a confer
ence Of Senators EIkins, Aldrich and one
or two others opposed to the bill as it
stands. Senator Foster took an active
part in the discussion today by asking
questions concerning the powers of the
courts under the Hepburn bill, and
whether 1t would interfere with any fun
damental rights Senator Dol1iver ex-
planned the rate making section of the
bill and the intention of the persons who
drew 1t, declaring that it was the pur-
pose to carry out the provisions of the
constitution. giving the government the
right to regulate interstate commerce be-
tween states.

DID A WORLD OF GOOD
Or. Williams Fink PiE1s Cure Heart
Pains, Dizzy Spells and
Weakness

Easy to get, hard to get rid Of; that Is
what most sufferers think OF dyspepsia
They are astonished when their stomach
begins to trouble them seriously.
They had been eating hurrtedly and
irregulazly for a long time, TO be sure,
but they supposed their stomachs quite
used TO that.
Some people know that the strength
which the weak stomach needs, and for
the lack of which the whole body is suf-
fering, can be found surely and quickly
in DR.. Williams Pink Pills. In hum
dreds of instances these pills have suc-
ceeded where other remedies failed.
"My indigestion, +" said Mr.. J. r. Mil
Ter, of DAYTON, Va, came IN the first
place from the fact that a few years ago
I worked a great deal at night, and ate
at any odd hour whenever the chance
came, and always very hurriediy. One
day found myself a victim OF terrible
dyspepsia It kept me miserable ali the
time for several years.
60 always had great deal of distress
after eating, and when I got up from my
sleep my stomach would be so weak that
it would hardly take any food. I had
very uncomfortable feelings about my
heart, and was dizzy and, whenever
stopped over and then Strengthened up,
my eyes would be badly blurred.
g read the statements of several per-
sons who had got rid of obstinate stom-
ach troubles by using Dr. Williams
Pink Pills. bought some and they
did me world of good. They acted
promptly and did Just what was claimed
for them. I have no more distress af-
ter meals; the bad feeling has gone from
the region of my heart; the alarming
dlz5y spells have disappeared, and am
strong again

COUNCILMAN CHAMBERS TRIAL IS NOW BEGUN
Effort Fails to Secure Writ From Supreme Court Removing
Case From Judge HoweIS Jurisdiction and Then Trial
Is Begun With Selection of Jury.

Three Intellectual efforts by the at
torneys for Fred w. Chambers, prest-
dent Of the Ogden city council, were
made yesterday in an effort to prevent
the case against the councilman for the
alleged Illegal appropriation Of city
money for his personal use, coming to
trial The first was the dispatching Of
H. r. Macmillan, one of counsel for the
defense, 10 the supreme court in Salt
Lake, where he applied for a writ Of
prohibition &c prevent Judge j. A How
ell from proceeding with the hearing Of
the case on the ground Of lack Of jur-
isdfcttOn. This application was denied
The defense then demurred to certain
paragraphs Of the amended complaint
and after Judge Howell overruled the
demurrer a general demurrer was en-
tered TO the entire complaint, which was
likewise oVerruled by the court. This
cleared the way for the trial Of the
case. The cast is attracting much at
tendon. On either side of the defendant
during yesterdays proceedings sat A. H.
MOyes and William Craig, against whom
similar actions are pending.
The entire morning session was oocu-
pied by the attorneys in the arguments
on the two demurrers and, on motion of
Attorney W. L. MagtnntS for the defense,
the case was continued until o'clock
internissiOn that the message was re-
ceived from Mr. Macmillan that the mo-
ton before the supreme court had been
denied.
When court reconvened the calling Of
jurors was taken up and as soon as the
first eight men filed into the jury box
another wrangle came up between coUn-
sci. Attorney Maginnas argued that the
case was not a criminal one and that
they had no right to examine the jurors.
The court soon settled the controversy
however, and ordered the examination of
jurors to proceed holding that the pro-
ceedings in criminal actions governed the
case. Before eight men suitable TO both
sides could be secured eighteen jurors
were examined. and the defense ex-
hausted their five peremptory challenges
and the prosecution four.

ROBBED FRIEND AND FLED.
E. {. Mackay, Arrested at Ogden,
Dupes Officers and Gets Away.

After robbing his friend and fellow
workman of about 800, and leaving him
for dead in a Portland hospital more
than a year ago, E. E. Mackay was ar
rested here yesterday. He was identi-
fled by T. E Wheaton, his victim After
paying back the greater portion Of the
amount mentioned, Mackay was permit
ted to go. Mackay duped the officers
and Weaton into accepting as part pay
ment of the debt a gold watch which he
had not yet paid for.
1t appears from the story told by Whea-
ton. and acknowledged as being true by
Mackay, that the two men were en-
ployed at Portland as railroad brake
men in Novembe 1904, when wheaton
was crushed between two cars so badly
that his life was despaired Of He was
taken to Portland hospital and, while
ne lay on what he supposed to be his
death bed, Mackay asked for Wheaton's
pay check, that he might get it cashed
and give the money to him. Wheaton
which amounted to $95.75. This was the
last heard or seen Of Mackay by Wheaton
until yesterday.
Instead Of dying Wheaton got well.
and came to Ogden in search of en-
plCyment Immediately after stepping
from the train here yesterday he met
an old friend also a railroad man. and
in the course of the conversation Whea-
ton inquired what became of Mackay
To his surprise he was informed that
he was in Ogden. He then sought q no

in turn It was told at the police sta
ton, where Sergeant Fred Tout was as
signed to the case.
In company with Wheaton the ser
geant came upon the man wanted on
Twenty-fifth street. The officers stopped
Mackay and called him by name In re-
turn Mackay said: You've got the best
Of me-" The officer then asked him II
he had not the best Of the man Wheaton
He then saw for the first time his vic
tim, whom he supposed to be dead, and
reached out his hand. at the same time
remarldng: 81 thought you were dead
Wheaton refused to accept the proffered
hand, and Mackay was taken to the po-
lice station. Here he admitted the truth
of Wheaton's story, and asked permits
sion to right the wrong. He was willing
to leave a new gold watch and 500 in
money in part payment, ans promised TO
return the balance OF the money at an
early date. After severe scoring he
was permitted to go his way.
Last evening Paul W. Specher, a local
jeweler.- called at the police station and
reported that the watch was not paid
for. A search for Mackay was made,
but he had left.

In examining the jurors counsel for the
defense were especially particular in
was in sympathy with the law govern
Ing the removal Of public officer from
office for violation Of trust. They also
tried to bring out whether or not the
juror was in sympathy with the bringing
OF an action of that nature by a private
citizen against a public officer. In every
instance these questions were answered
in the affirmative. 1t was past o'clock
when the Jury was secured and empan-
eled.
Attorney ]. N Kimban, for the prose
cution, then asked that the case be con-
tinued until this morning, as most Of
the evidence would be Of documentary
F., nature, and that It was not available
at that time, and the court so directed
are as follows: William J. Hancock, re-
tired; James F. Crosbie, retired; James 8.

viii be general admission Of the &C
cusations and, by showing that the same
methods have been used by for
mer councils, plead ignorance Of any
wrong intent. They win also attempt
to show by the testimony Of the city
treasurer that as soon as they were made
aware that they had violated the law
they returned the money in question to
the city treasury.
For the prosecution. it is expected that
Attorney J. D. Skeen, who brought the
accusations, will go upon the stand and
probably testify to the efforts that have
been made TO get him to withdraw the
charges. and to the admissions made by
the defendant, Chambers, on one Occa-
sion.

the cabin and gained entrance, Baggaley
had been overcome and literally roasted

His estimate is an increase of $4,000, 600
bushels over last years yield This will
be 38.6 bushels per acre. The percent
