GCMPERS IS GRATlFIED.
Declares Labor is Pleased With the Presi- dents Order to Enforce the
 Eight Hour Day.

Washington; Sept. 22.-"Impetus has been given to the labor movement in politics by President Roosevelt's order directing the rigid enforcement of the eight-hour law" declared Sam- uel Gompers, president of the Amer ican Federation of Labor. We are much gratified that the president has issued the order, although we con ceive it to be little late" said NIT. Gompers. "The original request for the enforcement of the eight hour law on government work was made by me nearly three years ago. During the intervening time I have repeatedly called the presidents at tention to the continued violation of the law and have cited specific in- stances backed up by affidavits.
 "On March 22, 1906, the president requested Frank Morrison. of the American Federation of Labor to bring to his attention specific in- stances of the violation of the law which he would refer to Mir. Neill for investigation. This was done on April 21 with the result that the or der requiring the enforcement of the law was issued Thursday.
 Tt certainly will encourage lakor to pursue its work of organization in the campaign which has been mapped out in the hope that a larger degree of justice may be attained"

Cimarron Bridge, Via Kingfisher, Ok, Sept. 20,--Contrary to Tuesdays reports it developed early Wednes- day that 20 persons who were known to have occupied the smoker on the northbound Rock Island train that went into the Cimarron river near Dover Tuesday morning are unac- counted for. Efforts are being made to locate the smoker, which is at point no yards below the site of the bridge. A strong eddy is believed to mark the spot where the smoker sank. The water has fallen five feet from the high mark of Tuesday, but neither the engine, baggage car nor the smok- CT can be seen.
 When the train went off the bridge the baggage car, smoker and day coach broke loose and toppling of the wrecked bridge swung down stream. Immediately the baggage car sank for an instant. The smoker half floated with one end above water, the couplings between 1t and the day coach broke and, submerged, it was carried down the river at least over 100 yards. None of the persons es- capped saw any one leave the smoker Four persons stood on the smoker when it was struck by the bridge which swung down stream. They were knocked into the water and rescued finally miles down the river, clinging to debris.
 Wednesday an additional death was added to the list of known victims when the three-year-old son of Mrs. Kate Sells. of Payne, Ohio, died of strangulation, caused by inhaling sand and water
 Piles of wreckage at points one and two miles below the scene of the wreck were examined by men in boats Wednesday. An effort was made to find the 20 persons who are believed to have been in the smoker and are still missing. With long prods the debris. consisting of splintered boards, furniture from coaches. and baggage was disturbed but not body was found.
 It was reported here by telephone that bodies of five men were taken out of the river ten miles southeast of the scene of the wreck early Wednesday. Another telephone re- port from down the river said pas senger that escaped from the wreck on the debris. was lodged in the mid dle of the river and that it had been impossible to rescue him owing to the river running high and rough.
 Bodies of passengers who were buried in the sinking smoker will probably never be rescued. For a short time following the wreck a small portion of the smoker was visi- ble. It sank slowly in quicksand AL though water had fallen five feet at noon Wednesday, the smoker could not be touched with ten-foot poles. Waves heavy with sand lash contin- ually over the spot where the smok- CT is believed to contain missing bodies is thought to lie.

Austin. Tex, Sept. 22.-Attorney General Davidson has filed suit against the Waters-Pierce oil com pany to cancel it's permit to do bus mess in Texas, and for penalties az gregating $5,22S,400. A general con- spiracy on the part of the Waters Pierce and the Standard is alleged. The amount of these penalties is the total sum claimed by the state for the years the company is alleged to have violated the antitrust laws. The spiciest part of the allegation follows:
 That in the accomplishment Of this end. it was conceived admissible to restore H. c. Pierce (because of sup- posed political influence capable of being exercised by him in the state of Texas), to the presidency of the defendant company. which he had thertofore been removed by these managers of the Standard Oil com pany That the nominal and fradn- lent reorganization having been ac- complished, H. c. Pierce came into the state of Texas with a large sum of money. accomplished the settle ment of the cases pending in the state of Texas against the Waters Pierce Oil company at that time and filed copy of the charter. dated May %, 1900, with the secretary of the state, and secured a permit to do bus mess in the state of Texas. dated May 31, 1900 Plaintiff further alleges thar the Waters-Pierce oil company, de- fendant, was not dissolved in accord ance with the statues and laws of Missouri regulating the dissolution of corporations. so that it has oper- ased and transacted business within the state of Texas from May 31, 1900 down to the day of the trial of the case in violation of the injunction issued against it by judgment of the district court of this state, and in violation of the laws of this state 70 that the permit issued to the said Waters Pierce Oil company, dated May Fl, 1900, was obtained by false anC fradulent representations made by II c. Pierce acting under authority and with the knowledge of the said de fendant corporation, its officers anG stockholders and the Standard Oil company of New Jersey. so that al of the above acts and doings were in pursuance of the contracts, agree ments and understandings and con spiracies heretofore alleged herein.
 The petition then sets out the affi- davit of Pierce of 1900. averring that no relationship with the Standard Oi. exists, and says:
 That all of said representations made by H. c Pierce were false and fraudulent, and known by him to be false and fraudulent at the time they were made. and were made by him for the purpose of deceiying the off cers of the state for the purpose O, eTeeting re-entrance for defendant corporation into the state of Texas in pursuance and furtherance of the conspiracies hereinbefore alleged"
 It is further alleged that at the time of the affidavit the Standard owned 2,750 shares of the 4.0o0 oi the Waters-Pierce. also that since the reorganization the company has repeatedly and continuously violated the laws Of Texas.

Washington, Sept. 22.-The advices from Havana Friday only confirm the feeling which has been entertained here that tbe differences between the government of Cuba and the insur- gent forces are irreconeilable and that even if the presidents commis- sioners should succeed in accomplish ing any arrangement for the settle ment of the difficulties in Cuba it could only be temporary and that a crisis must necessarily result sooner or later. Intervention therefore by the United States is likely to occur at any moment
 Officials of the war, state and navy departments, when shown the Havana bulletin telling of the impending cris- Is would not admit the receipt of any confirmatory advices, but it IS known definitely that the govern ment officials entertain the view as herein stated It was said Friday that in case of intervention, one of the first acts of the United States would be the adoption of a policy of recommendation, but without the hor- TOTS attending a similar policy ot Gen.
