RIGHT OF WAY SUIT.
Progress Of Saratoga & Encampment
Railroad.

Cheyenne, Wyo.-The fight between
the Union Pacific and the Saratoga &
Encampment railway companies over
right of way for the latter over the
railroad grant lands of the former
from Walcott south toward Saratoga.
which has been brewing for
some time, is now on in
dead earnest. On Wednesday the
Saratoga & Encampment company
filed suit at Rawlins to compel the
Union Pacific to permit the former cor
poration to lay line of standard rail-
way from the southern edge Of the
Union Pacific lands to Walcott.
Attorneys for the Saratoga & En-
campment say they have for months
attempted to compromise uatters
with the overland route, but that the
latter would not accept any Of their
propositions. They are now prepared
to fight it out in the courts, and are
sanguine as to the outcome.
Graders for the Saratoga & Encamp-
ment, which is reported to be part OF
the Denver. Yellowstone & Pacific. are
now at work between Saratoga and
Walcott throwing up the grade as fast
as the work can be done. The COM
pany hopes ito have the line ready for
trains not later than May list. The
present suit with the Union Pacific
may cause a further delay, however,
but so sure are the S. & E. officials
over the outcome of the suit that they
are already making preparations to
handle business from Saratoga on May
1st.

Part In II.

Washington.-vics Chairman Wray
of the Colorado Springs, Colorado as
sociation which is preparing to cele-
brate the centenary of the discovery
of Pixies Peak by Captain Zebulon
Pike, has MADE arrangements with the!
authorities here for a liberal represent
tation of the government on this oc-i
casion.

officer. A large detachment of troops
will be detailed to attend and partici-
pate in the exercises. The date for

Bureau has also promised that the va,
rious tribes of Indians that inhabited
the region of the peak at the time OF
Pixies visit in 1906, shall be repre-
sented by liberal delegations. These
Will include Utes. Cheyennes, Arapa-

MORE EVIDENCE
STEVE ADAMS coNFEssEs INNER
CIRCLE cRIMEs.
coRRoBoRATIMe ORCHARD

Written and Signed Confession Gives
Details Of Many Msrders-TsIls
Secret Workings Of the Western
Federation.
Boise. Idaho.-The Statesman prints
the following:
"The Statesman Is authorized to an.
nounce that Steve Adams, arrested at
Haines. Oregon. on February goth. in
connection with the Steunenberg as.
sassination. has made full and sweep.
ing confession.
This second confession is far more
important than that made by Harry
Orchard. This is the statement made
by James Mcfarland. the Pinkerton de-
tective last evening. in the presence
Of Governor Gooding and J. H. Haw-
ley, who is IN charge of the prosecu.
ton.
"Mr. Mcfarland added that Adams
confession fully and exactly corrob.
Grated that made by Orchard at every
point touched on by both.
Moreover, Mcfarland continued,
Adams knows far more of the work
ings Of the sinner circle than Orchard
did, and was able to give a mass Of de-
tailed Information that Orchards con-
fession did not cover. The confession
of Adams, he said, corroborated that
given by Orchard on every substantial
point connected with the assassination
of Governor Steunenberg. Adams,
however, was not at Caldwell at the
time OF the assassination, nor was Or
chard at the time of the unsuccessful
effort in November. The man who as
sisted Orchard on the latter occasion,
as set forth in Orchards confession,
was Jack Simpkins.
"Still another statement made by the
detective was that the Adams confess
sion gave the details of large num-
ber of murders that were not referred
to in any manner by Orchard. 1t was
further stated that the confession had
been reduced to writing, signed and
acknowledged. 1t was voluminous
document, covering a greater field and
in more detail than was made by Or
chard. The further statement was
made that Adams had made this con-
fession without being promised any
thing. When talked with about the
matter he simply made clean breast
Of all he knew Of this case and Of the
secret workings Of the Western FEEDER
alton.
1T was announced by the governor,
Mr.. Hawley and Mr.. MCFARLAND that,
while they thought these facts should
be made public, there would be no
further information given out or
limited at respecting this confession

SUGAR BEET VICTORY.
Philippine Tarim Bill Killed by ssnass
Committee.

SVsssssssseS~s
wash1ngton.-By q vote of eight to
flve Friday the Senate committee ON
the Philippines defeated the Payne
bill, which had passed the House by q
vote Of 25S to II.
The action of the committee had
been foreshadowed for nearly 4 week,
although the exact vote had not been
known.
The senators voting for the bill
were: Lodge. Beveridge. Long. Car
mack and McCreary.
The negative votes were: Hale, Bur-
rows, Dick, Nixon. Brandegee. Culber.
son, Dubois, Stone.
After this decisive action bad been
taken, Mr.. McCreary moved that the
bill be reported to the Senate ad-
versely, in order to give the Senate
a chance to consider 1t.
Mr.. Brandegee moved to table the
motion and this was carried by a vote
Of z to 6, Mr.. Nixon voting with the
minority on this proposition.
This action effectually disposes of
the measure, unless the chairman
should appeal to the Senate by reso-
luton.
After Brandegee's proposal that the
bill should be tabled. Mr.. Lodge. the
chairman, addressed the committee.
He said the course proposed was un-
usual and that there could be no good
purpose accomplished in thus prevent
ing the Senate from reviewing the
action of the committee II 1t desired.
The opponents of the bill made no
reply.
After the bill had been effectually
disposed of, Mr.. McCreary moved to
report his bill, which provided for
free trade with the Philippines imme-
diately.
This motion was lost, only four SEN
ators voting in the affirmative. They
were McCreary, Culberson, Carmack
and stone.
The Payne bill provided for the re-
duction of duty on sugar, tobacco and
u rice imported from the Philippines. to
thirty-two per cent. of the Dingley
schedules, and for absolute free trade
after three years.

INVESTIGATION OF sTEuNEN-
BERG MURDER.
Statements Reported to Have Been
Made Before the Grand Jury at
Caldwell, Idaho.


Denver.-Under date of March 1st
the Denver News correspondent tele-
graphs from Caldwell, Idaho:
The witnesses examined to-day were
Orchard, who, 1t is believed, will go on
the stand again tomorrow; James Nc
Parland, the Pinkerton detective;
Andy johnson of Boise, George Fro
man, resident of Caldwell, and Prof.
s. r. Macy, state chemist.
McParland's testimony went to cor
roborate the statements contained in
the confession of Orchard. The wit
ness stated to the jury that his inves-
LEGATIONS had disclosed that bomb
hal been placed in the yard of Judge
Goddard of Denver; that the death of
Valley in Denver by bomb explosion
was due to the Western Federation Of
ficials.
Mcfarland also reported to the jury
that the agents of the Western FEEDER
alton had conducted their experiments
with bombs on the pra;ries to the north
of Manahatton beach, Denver.
Among the charges made by McPar-
land were the death of Martin Gleason,
mine superintendent of Cripple Creek;
the murder of Arthur Collins, the ex-
plosion in the Vindicator mine by
which two men met their deaths, the
mysterious disappearance of Barney,
the mining engineer employed at the
Telluride.
Under the latitude allowed witnesses
in the grand jury room the witness
gave many statements on information
and belief in which he charged the
miners organization with responsible.
ity for no less than twenty-six fatali-
ties.
He charged that Haywood was the
mind which originated and com-
manded the execution of all the plots.
Meyer was the dupe, said the witness,
and Pettibone lent his counsel to the
business for the financial returnB 1t
netted him.
Professor Macy examined the
bombs, said to number twenty-five,
which were found in Orchards room
and among his effects. Andy John
son was a witness at the preliminary
hearing of Orchard. At this hearing
he was asked by Orchards counsel II
he was working for reward when he
made the arrest. He denied the Inn
putation, but later when he found there
were rewards offered he asked Judge
Church to have his answer stricken
from the records in order that he
might share in the prize money.
Among the witnesses subpoenaed to-
morrow are w. s. Swain of the Thiel
Detective Agency, and Joseph Hutch
inson, who was lieutenant governor
with Steunenberg, and who was the
first man to break into Orchards room
at the Saratoga hotel. 1t is believed
that the grand jury will be ready to re-
mort the indictments not later than
next Monday. Under the law indict.
ments must be accompanied by a
transcript of the testimony, and as a
great number of witnesses will be ex-
amined 1t may take a day to prepare
the returns after the work is con.
cluded.
