ARRESTED on Charges of Thefts
John Brennan, Charles McC1osky,
Ben Conton and William Kellas en-
ployees of the Harry r. Parker
company we're arrested during the
night and are now at the jail charged
with being connected with the recent
thefts from the two markets owned by
the company. The boys are booked at
the jail on charge of burglary, but
It is possible that the evidence now in
the hands of the officers will not sup
port this charge. It is claimed that
at least two of the boys have admitted
taking several small articles from the
market, but all insist that they were
not connected with the raid on the
cash registers on Sunday night
The boys we're booked to have a
hearing late this afternoon.

START LEAGUE CASE
Kenosha Members of the Royal
League Interested in Out
come of the Hearing
CHARGES MISUSE OF FUNDS

The quarrel in the Royal League
by which several of the older mem
bers of the society were ousted from
Office came to head yesterday after
noon when the case of Buehler
against the Royal League was called
before Master in Chancery Sherman
at Chicago yesterday. Among the
prominent members ousted were Mil
lard H. Powers, H. H. c. Miller, B. Fl.
Foster, Robert C. lies, former county
attorney; c. c. Linthicun1, G. E. Bon
nell, and others. All these men, it is
claimed, have been active and have
occupied responsible positions in the
society. The leader of their oppon-
ents is Charles 3. Piper, supreme sec
rotary of the order. The members
who have been orsted from Offices are
| backing the suit of F. c. Buehler, who
alleges that Piper has been system
atica1ly misappropriating the society
funds for some years.
The hearing of testimony was CONF
menced yesterday morning on the bill
filed March 10, 1905, by F. c. Buehler
of Cleveland, O., against the Royal
| League, William E. Hyde and Charles
E. Piper, in which it is charged that
both Hyde and Piper have been
guilty. of appropriation of be-
tween SIS, 900 and $50, 0004 of the funds
of the order.
The Royal League, which is fra
ternal benevolent association with
headquarters in Chicago, having &c.
600 to d, 900 members, mostly in the
Ohio and Mississippi valleys, has been
considering the charges in its supreme
council for some time. In April and
May of 1904 Buehler notified certain.
| persons that he suspected that
Chares b. Piper, supreme secretary
of the league, was misusing certain
funds committed to his charge.
Buehler was Immediately summoned
before the committee on laws, consist
ing of George w. Miller, Edwin S.
Fillpot and T. B. O'Connen, and after
they had examined the charge the
committee pronounced them baseless.
Buehler was then summoned before
the supreme council of the order and
it is alleged that he was suspended
from the order for one year by an
overwhelming majority.
In order to get at the facts Buehler
then filed bill making specific
charges of misuse of funds, to which
the defendants took a demurrer.
This demurrer was overru1ed by Judge
Lands and the defendants compelled
to file answer, the case coming before
Master in Chancery Sherman yester-
day.
It is alleged IL the bill that Piper
and Hyde have been guilty of reck-
less expenditure of the funds of the
society in the purchase of cigars, sup
pers and entertainments for their
friends. It is also alleged in the bill
that Piper is inso1vent and that he
has used the funds of the league to
liqnidate his personal debts. More
than 200 documents bearing on the
case will pass through the hands of
the court before the hearing is con-
cluded.

The explosion Of a lantern in one Of
the barns of August Pasch, in the
town of Bristol, at six O'Clock New
Years morning resulted in the two

OGDEN SUFFERED BY FIRE
Some News Of interest From
San FrancisCO's Afflict.
ed Field.

New York, May 22.-Six men were
killed and fifty others injured today
by an explosion in the plant of the
New York Glucose company at Sha-
dyside. N. j., opposite the city.
II is believed that the explosion
was caused by a defect in one of the
steam boilers. The four-story build
ing was completely wrecked and an
outbuilding was also torn to pieces.
There were 500 men in the building
at the time of the explosion. After
the explosion rescuers found twelve
men imprisoned in the burning de-
brls and made frantic efforts to res
cue them. Two were taken out fa-
tally injured, when flames drove the
rescuers back and It is feared that
ten other men were burned to death.
Not So Bad as Reported.
Later information proved that no
one was killed in the explosion, and
those who were endangered by fire
were rescued. In the confusion which
followed the explosion, many reports
of serious loss of life were circulat-
ed, but investigation proved that all
were untrue. A score of men en-
ployed in the dynamo and engine
rooms were more or less injured.
Some thirty men who were In the
building had narrow escapes from
death, but all were taken from the
blazing ruins by fellow workmen. The
disaster was caused by the explosion
of big steam pipe.

FIERCE FIGHT AT
MILE-END SALOON
CHARLES f. sPADDER BADLY
BEATEN UP-LlkEWIsE WEBB,
THE PROPRIETOR.

Reports received in this city this
afternoon tell of a fierce brawl that
took place last night at a saloon
and resort out North Fourth street,
known as Mile End" about one mile
north of the Mountain road, in which
Charles +. Spadder of Bernalillo was
severely beaten about the face and
head, and the proprietor named Webb,
was also seriously beaten up.
The details of the fight could not
be CLEANED this afternoon as no war
rants were sworn out for the arrest OF
any of the parties, nor were the police
called on. As it occurred outside of
the city limits the city police did not
investigate and the sheriff's office
knew nothing of it up TO a late hour
this afternoon.
Reports of the fight state that
knives. hatchets, base ball bats and
other implements of a like nature
played a prominent part in the brawl
in which Spadder, the most seriously
injured, had an eye knocked out and
his head split.
A doctor was called to the scene
Of the fight but up TO press time had
not returned TO the city.

They had four boats, one of which was
wrecked. One of the party left be-
fore they went below the mouth of
White river, and three of them with
drew near the end of the Grand Cam
yon, and were afterwards killed by
the Shewit Indians. After a perilous
voyage, made more rapidly than was
desired because of short rations, the
survivors reached the mouth of the
Rio Virgin. There they were picked
up and succored by some Mormons,
who had been sent by Brigham Young
to that point to establish a settle
ment.
The scientific results of the first
expedition were unsatisfactory, and a
second expedition was planned for the
purpose of collecting scientific data
and making better exploration. The
second party, which numbered eleven
men, left Green river in 1871. Sec
ond in command of this party was
Prof. A. II. Thompson, who afterwards
became member of the Powell sur
vey, and, later, when Major Powell
became director, a member of the
United States Geological survey,
where he still holds the position of
geographer.
This party explored the river part
way, but did not enter Grand Canyon
in 1871 for two reasons. The weather
became cold and food was scarce. 1t
was decided, therefore, to spend the
winter of 1912 exploring the country
adjacent to the canyon, and establish
ing base of supplies. In 1872, the

other four men had fallen III, and nc
others appeared to have the courage
to take their places. 1t was commonly
believed that the explorers would
never be seen again, but no lives were
lost, although Major Powell was nearly
killed.
It is felt that the phenomenal work
of these explorers entities them tC
national recognition.

Confidence in Banking Circles.
That absolute confidence reigns in

dent today when several savings in
stitutions announced that they would
open doors for business tomorrow
morning. This announcement came in
the nature of a mild surprise, for it
had been agreed that the savings in
stitutions would open doors next Mon
day. Many of the savings institutions
| which resume business tomorrow in
stead of next Monday give as reason
for it is for public good as well as
financial policy to thus demonstrate
