appointed time, and any attempt to

disaster. She takes note of all our

IL we oyerdraw our account at her

lend us all we want to-day, but to-mor-

charges against him having been drop

We were unable to verify certain

st. John had been out on bonds un-

the strike riot of 1900 at Telluride,
when man named Burnham was
killed. st. John, after leaving Tellu.
ride, went to Idaho. He was arrested
for completely in the assassination of
ex-Gov. Steunenberg, of Idaho, but
later released and Immediately rear
rested, charged with the murder of
Burnham in Telluride, and brought to
Colorado. He was placed in Jail and
a strong guard thrown around the Jail
to prevent what was alleged to be an
attempt to rescue him.
Three weeks later the evidence did
not appear to be 80 strong and he was
released on $40, 900 bond. His case
dragged along until at this term of
court the prosecuting attorney an
nounced that he had no evidence on
which to hold him, and he was re-
leased.

MILWAUkEE'S STOCK TOBE
INCREASED $l5O,OO0,0OO

Milwaukee. Oct. ga resolution
was passed at the directors meeting
of the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
road, at it's headquarters here last Sat-
urday, authorizing the increasing Of
both the common and preferred stock
of the company each $50, 900, 900.
The resolution authorizing the in
crease provides that the directors may
issue the whole or any part Of the
amount voted that they deem neces-
sary.
This announcement came as par
tial solution of the puzzle which has
involved the Wisconsin Central rail-
way, which has during the past week
been the subject of much gossip.
The Wisconsin Central has been re-
ported sold to a dozen different rail-
ways, but in the Milwaukee road

eventually found the solution Of this
question.
To Build to Seattle
When the annual meeting was held
week ago the outside estimate of the
cost of the Pacific coast extension was
placed at $50, 600, 600.
OF this amount more than $25, 000,-
900 was raised bv the sale of stock the
past summer, which was authorized
two years ago. It was expected that
the balance of the sum needed would
be raised by a bond issue or sale of
notes to French financiers, who few
months ago provided money in SINH
lar manner for the Pennsylvania.
Now, however, iG is evident that, the
Milwaukee road depends on its own
country for raising the funds for the
extension to Seattle. This will &C.
count for largep ortion of the stock
issue. The balance, however, is not
explained.
One report here is that the Milwau-
kee road is not content with project
ing line to the Puget sound country,
but proposes to send a feeder down to
the south from the present proposed
terminals at Seattle and Tacoma, to
get some of the business originating at
San Francisco.

Havana, Oct. 6.-Now that the dis

crossing steadily, the thoughtful por-
tion of the public of all nationalities
are animatedly discussing the posi-
bilities of Cuba's future form of
government. 49,
The desire for annexation, which
has been carefully concealed for the
past four years is now voiced openly
and the wish that the United States
retain some measure OF actual control
in Cuban affairs is heard more insist
emily than ever.
Representative Of leading elements,
both Cuban and foreign, have been
asked to attend 3 meeting to discuss
the feasibility Of holding some sort
of plebiscite by which all classes Of
the population would be enabled to
express their ideas on what the future
form of government should be. One
plan suggested is the formation into
groups of the various elements, each
of which will formulate its own project
Of government. The idea of holding
the next elections in January has been
entirely abandoned, the general pref
erence among appearing to favor the
holding of elections in June.

Annexation Discussed.

Washington, Oct. 6. - Secretary
Root has made public the correspond
ence leading up to the Intervention in
Cuba. The correspondence took place
between Consul General Steinhart at
Havana and Assistant Secretary Of
State Bacon.
Intervention was asked by the Gu
ban government as early as September
8, and as long ago as September IA
President Palma had determined to
resign as president Of the republic,
and the vice president and cabinet
ministers had determined to no longer
continue in Office.
It is shown that Intervention by the
United States has long been planned
by the Palma government, and was
communicated to the state department.
in q letter by Consul Steinhart as
early as September 5. The correspon-
dence consists of a dozen or more
cables and letters, in which it is stated
by President Palma, through official
channels, that he was powerless to
cope with the insurrection to the ex-
tent of putting it down or even to pro-
tect life and property. He begged
that the United States might send
troops to take wharge of affairs and
prevent destruction of life and prop.
erty.
The correspondence began on Sep
TENDER 8 and continued until Septem-
Der IA, the last letter telling Of the
intended resignation of Palma and
other government officials, leaving
Cuba without a government Of any
kind.
This resulted in the. hurried send
ing of Secretaries Taft and Bacon to
the island and the subsequent action
taken by them.

0STE0PATHS 10 MEET
 AT JAMESTOWN FAIR
Rapid Growth of This School of Heal
 ing Pounded by Country Doctor.

Norfolk, Va. Aug. 2S.-Dr w. D. Willard of this city has returned from Put-in-Bay. ohio. where he attended the meeting of the American Osteo- pathic association and secured for the Jamestown exposition that body's con Venti0n for 1907. Dr. Willard states that more than a thousand delegates may be expected to attend the con vention, held for the first time on the eastern coast
 This great gathering of opponents of this new school of healing is bound to attract wide attention to osteopathy. which is no longer an experiment. but a well-fOunded institution The his tory of the science of Osteopathy is highly interesting. While the osteo- pathic method of curing disease has been practiced for thirty years by it's founder, it is only ten years since the first legal recognition of osteopaths was secured. That was in Vermont. more than a thousand miles east of the spot where Dr. Andrew Taylor Still first succeeded in establishing himself as practitioner according to his new methods.
 pr. Still Is the founder of osteopathy. and fortunately he has lived to see his school of practice grow into general favor Dr. Still was a skilled surgeon and physician at the outbreak of the civil war, through which conflict he served as a surgeon on the medical staff. Always an investigator. he be- came dissatisfied with the old methods of healing or curing. and struck boldly out along new lines. 'In 1874" he writes. 'I proclaimed that a disturbed artery marked the beginning to an hour and a minute where disease be- gan to sow it's seeds of destruction in the human body" That was a state ment simple enough in it's language, but startling in its meaning. Old school physicians pooh-poohed the idea and the layman was not to be con vinced. When pr. Still set aside his scafpel and his medicine case. people called him crazy. Even the preachers opposed him, some of them holding that he was possessed of a devil. The idea of accounting for disease by a dis turbed artery was too much Of an inA novation to be considered seriously Dr. Stills friends and his own brother turned against him.
 The pioneer, who was then living in Baldwin, Kan, changed his residence to Macon. Mo. For a year he attempt ed to practice at Macon. but found things even more unpleasant than had been the case at Baldwin Then he went few miles north and located at Kirksville, Mo. the little city which became and remained the capital of osteopathy. A few thinking people in kirksville believed in Stills theories. which he soon put into practice by actually and absolutely curing chronic cases given up as hopeless by other physicians. Patients soon began com ing from far and near, and Dr. Still had more than he could do. One os- teOpath could not treat all the cases.

so the founder of the science estab-
 lished a school for the making of os-
 teopathic doctors. Now the American
 School of OsteOpathy at Kirksville is
 known throughout the world.
 The fundamental hypothesis of os-
 teopathy is that abnormal conditions
 are mainly the result of obstruction to
 the blood and nerve supply, and that
 such obstruction may be overcome by
 manipulation. OsteOpathy may be de-
 fined as the science Of drugless healing
 based upon the principle that the body
 has been endowed by nature with all
 the fluids and forces necessary for the
 preservation of health and recovery from disease provided that the mech anism which produces and distributes these fluids and forces is in perfect mechanical adjustment.
 No drugs are used by the practi- tiOners of this art. They simply ma nipulate the bones and muscles. the arteries and nerves. in such way as to cure the cause of the disease. The first part of the name being derived from q Greek word meaning bone. Dr. Still and his disciples wer fippantly called "bone doctors For many years the osteopaths were fought tooth and toenaiI" by the allopaths and the homeopaths. All other schools of medicine opposed the new school. In many towns and cities where grad uates of the American School of Os- teopathy attempted to locate for prac- tice the opposition was so strong that the ambitious young Osteopath was forced to leave town. Now and then he was run out bodily For years the new practitioners fought for the legal right to practice their profession but as stated it was not until 1896 that one of the states, Vermont paved the way by permitting osteopaths to practice on an equal footing with other doctors Since that year thirty-three states and territories have passed laws or rem dered court decisions in recognition of the professional rights of osteopathic
