w. w. FINLEY MAY BECOME
SOUTHERN PRESIDENT

Washington, Nov. 30.-Though
grief Of the horrible death of Presi-
dent Samuel Spencer and his loss to
the system are uppcrmost in society
as well as in railroad circles here,
speculation has naturally begun as
to his successor. The officials of the
road decline to discuss the subject,
but it is being discussed for them
by the press and by financiers.
Among these it is promptly declared {:
Nobody knows but j. Picrpont Nor
gan, he probably hasn't yet decided" "
This is supplemented by the remark
that James J. Hill will likely have
great weight with Mr.. Morgan in
making the selection.
Col. A. B. Andrews, the first vice.
president and the acting president, is
being mentioned for the place and he
would likely stand good chance, but
it is believed he would not accept for
the reason that it would noccssitate
his giving up his residence at Raleigh,
One Of his close personal friends
made statement to this effect this
afternoon after one of the afternoon
papers here had suggested the first
vice presidents name for the presi-
dency, saying that under no circum-
stances would col. Andrews leave
Raleigh. He added that the first vice
president is content to continue his
present work. He is now 66 years old
and does not desire any change.
Fhls leaves the way open to Sec
ond Nice-Presidcnt w. w. FINLEY,
who, it is thought by those indulginr
in speculations, will be the man, IN,
less Mr.. Morgan, decides to bring in
man from some other of his rail-
road systems.

FERNlE STRIKE is OFF.

to Work.
Fernie, B. c., Nov. 20.-The follow
ing telegram has been received from
John Mitchell, president of the United
Mine Workers of America, from Min
neapolis, dated today:
Agreement made by Burke recog-
nized by international union and men
will return to work"
This finally settles the question de-
spite the fact that the district and To-
cal officers of the union, with their
following, amounting to about 25 per
cent of the local union, were unwilling
to accept the settlement made by Mr..
Burke.
The Michel union and about so per
cent of the members of the Fernie
local union accepted Mr.. Burke's set
Element without dispute and went back
to work without waiting to hear the
result of Messrs. Sherman and Pat
terson's interview with Mr. Mitchell
There is nothing now for the mall
contents to do but obey the instruc-
tions of President Mitchell and apply
for places in the mine. This ends q
strike which had far reaching results.

They Had to Eat Fourteen Dogs on
Way Back From the Pole.
New York.-In special from sgd
ney, N. s., the World today gives some
details of the hardships endured by
Lieutenant Peary and his men in their
futile dash for the north pole. After
reaching the most extreme Greenland
settlement, it is stated, 10 Esquimaux
and 100 dogs were secured and then,
taking the ice, the steamer Roosevelt
drifted on and steamed through the
barrier of 1927 degrees north, where
winter quarters we're taken up, being
the farthest north winter quarters In
the history of Arctic exploration.
Arrangements to secure the ship and
make all comfortable were completed
by February z, 1906, and on that day
Peary, with LAS Esquimaux and three
teams of dogs made his start for the
pole. Other parties also went out in
charge of Captain Bartlett, DR.. Wolfe,
| r. G. MARGIN, ]. Clarke and M. Ryan
respectively.
These were relief parties, and they
| kept 30 miles apart.
During the first part of the journey
moderate weather prevailed and Peary
made good speed. Before his return
to his ship, lit days later, however
conditions changed and terrible suffer
ing from hunger and privation was en-
dured.
i Undeterred, Peary went further for
ward into the Arctic night until h
Preached the highest point ever reachet
iby any explorer, S7.06 north latitude
within 1853 miles of the pole.
i Before he started on the return voy
age the food supply had almost givel
out. During his return Peary encour
|, tered fierce snowstorm which laste
week and which drove the party on
of its course. Peary Immediately sc
. out to recover his lost course, but bt
fore he succeeded hunger threatene
, and Peary was compelled to kill som
| of his dogs. The commander enjoye
| the luxury of dog meat equally as we
as his Esquimaux. When Peary r.
{ turned TO the ship only three dogs OF
, of IL remained. IA having been eatel
, Musk OK and deer killed on the roa
! by Esquimaux helped the famishe
men.
Clarke, with one of the relief partie
also went astray and he was compelle
9 to kill some of his dogs to provid
d food. Clarke, 1t appears, was unab

is a result Of the efforts Of 4S popes
and the genius OF Michael Angelo, Bra
mantle and Rafael. The commission OF
such an outrage In such place has
called forth unlimited condemnation
and is characterized as proving that
the perpetrators of the crime were &C
tuated by feelings worse than those
which moved the Vandals and the Sar-

One theory is held that this attempt
was not directed against the papacy,
but rather challenge to society In
general by attacking religion, the most
sacred institution of the people.
