Maybe they can be found, and maybe

MINISTER'S MEET TODAY.
There was a meeting Of the Ogden
Ministerial association today, consisting
OF three members, Rev. Elderkin of the
congregational church and the presto
ing pastors of the Presbyterian and
Methodist churches. To a representa-
tive Of the Deseret News they said this
afternoon that they were Of the decided
impression that there had been a prize
fight but that under the present dispo-
sition to interpret the law they felt that
their hands were tied and that 1t was
useless to attempt TO do anything fur
Their They said that Deputy Sheriff
Wilson should have arrested the men
or permitted them to have gone on with
the battle until there was a Knockout
so that there could have been no ques-
ton about It being a prize fight.
A NEW COMPLAINT.
County Attorney Hulansk when seen
this afternoon said that " the Minister
ial association wanted to prosecute now
they would have TO get out new COM
plant and not make allegations ac-
cording to their best knowledge and be-
lief that TN ere had been a prize fight,
but to allege that there had been one
in actual fact. The county attorney
says that the affair was a glove con-
test and In his Judgment Deputy Sheriff
Wilson did the proper thing In making
no arrests

CONFEREES HAVE
 PLENTY OF TROUBLE
TiIman Says They Can Get Along Without Telegrams On the
 Rate Bill.

Washington, June 1S.-That the confer- ence committee of the two houses of Con- gress on the railroad rate bill has all it wants to do, was announced in tho Senate today by Senator Tillman The statement was eiicited by remark made by Senator Foraker In speaking of d number of telegraphic protests he had received against the retention of the Sen ate amendment making common carriers of pipe lines. He asked that the tele- grams be referred to the conferees. re- marking that he had made an effort to personally present them to the conferees. but that he had been denied admission to their august presence"
 Mir Tillman construed this as 'sar- castle allusion" and made the explanation that the conferees, finding their present troubles sufficient. had been compelled to shut the doors against arguments from those who are not members of the conn mittee.
 I've listened for four days in the Sem ate" he said, ''and don't feel disposed to add to our misery. We will accept the telegrams but don't want the arguments.
 'I infer then that the committee does not desire any more light" MT. Foraker said in response, and MT. Tillman ac- quiesced by his silence.

up today, Drs. Holt and Oliver, who were fin charge of the governor at Christ hos pital, and have been in close connection with his case before and since that time, were called as witnesses. Both testified to the effect that save for a period be- tween March and April 16 when the gov ernor was delrious, there was no time when their patient had been irrational. The application for the writ had been made on the ground that the governor was not in a mental or physical condition to aftend to state business. and that the papers in the case had not been dgned by the governor personally:

Claims for Confederate Horses.

The War Department continues to re- ceive claims from southerners who lost their horses in the civil war on their re- turn to their homes from service of the Confederate army.
 For several years claims of this sort have been paid by the quartermaster gen. eral under special provision of law, to meet which three appropriations have been made by Congress with the expecta- ton that there would be no further de- mand of funds for this purpose. The auditing officials claim that there will probably be no end to the claims of this sort and they do not favor an extension of the period of allowance or additional appropriation. It was expected that there were few instances where claims could be made for the loss by confiscation of animals belonging to Confederate cavalry men under the circumstances described. but the claims have far exceeded all ex- pectations. The original appropriation was made through the late Senator Bate of Tennessee.

THROWN OFF HIS GUARD

Philadelphia, Juno 1S.-Freddit Muth. the 7-year-old son of Jeweler Charles Muth, who was Kidnapped from the Muhl- enburg public school last Tuesday. was found this afternoon in a vacant house and returned to his parents. John J. Kean, a member of q respectable New York family, one time bookkeeper of the Harlem bank, @ stoclSholder, and more recently real estate agent is the abductor
 Replete with dramatic incidents through out, the climax of the abduction was sen- sational. The kidnaper was taken at been fired upon, and when he realized that escape was impossible.
 I&ean is a married man and the father of three children. He gave as his rea- son for abduction of the boy that ne needed money.
 Great Crowd Gathers.
 From the day of Kidnapping until the arrest this afternoon, Kean had kept the child in three vacant houses in West Philadelphia. The news of the capture had reached the center of the city and when the prisoner and the boy arrived at the city hall a great crowd had gathered. Kean, white with fear, trem- bled so that he could scarcely walk, and begged the detectives not to let them kill him.
 With the boy he was taken to Mayor Viewers office and the mayor imrnedi- ately communicated by telephone with hac toi office, and the meeting between the fath- CT and child was most affecting.
 The child bore no evidence of ill treat ment beyond the lack of sufficient nour- ishment He had been fed on bread and milk, which Kean had stolen from door steps When found he held a couple of crusts of bread in his hands, and d school book was under his arm
 Kean told the police in his statement that he abducted the boy primarily to secure s40O he had embedded from Charles J. Cooke. In addition, he said he was in debt, with no means of providing for his family. He said he never intended to harm the boy.
 Thrown Off Ills Guard.
 The capture of Kean was effected by Detective Blair. It was primarily due lO lut Pabiicdtioi dii VI tDidy itWS- papers that the police had abandoned their seach for the kidnapped boy. This threw Kean off his guard, and he ven tured outside the house. Blair bounced on him, and succeeded In forcing a confes- sion from him. The boy was very dirty, not having been washed since last Tues day. He said he had been kept constantly in the house; had been given bread and milk to eat, and was not mistreated. Kean kept constant watch from the win dows of the house. and whenever any one approached he would carry the boy to the roof.
 Kean and the boy were brought to the city hall. The police first called Charles Muth. the boys father by telephone to give him an opportunity to converse with his child. The scene was affecting. as the boy assured his father repeatedly that he is all right, finally inquiring: How are you, papa"
 After making a statement, Kean was locked up, and the boy was taken to his home.

MACHINE MINING GROWS
Many Claims Still Coming to the War !. Department for Horses Confiscated By the Union Army During
 the Civil War.

Washington, June 1S-(Special.)--Sta tics of the coal production of Alabama, during 1905 have been compiled by Ed ward W. Parker of the United States geological survey. They show that the total production of the year was Il, ,S66, ,O69 short tons, which had a value on the spot of s14.3S7,72l.
 This was an increase In tonnage of GOA, O23 of 5.3 per cent. and a gain in value of $907610 or 6.7 per cent over the value of 1O4. Compared with 1903, tho year of larg- est production heretofore, the output in 1905 shows an increase of 211.745 short tons in amount and of $140,923 in value. The average price per ton in 1905 was $1.21, as compared with s1.20 in 1904, and s1 22 in 1903.
 The returns show that 19,595 men were employed for an average of 225 days. The average output per man was 605.6 tons for the year. or 2.69 tons per day, as com pared with daily output of 2.93 tons per man in 1904. when 17s11 men worked an average of 216 days and produced Il, 1,262 046 tons of coal. The yearly tonnage per man in 1904 was 632.3 tons, or 26.S tons more tha min 1905.
 One of the notable features in connec- ton with the production of coal in Ala bama during 1905 was the large increase in the number of mining machines used and in the amount of machine mined coal produced. There were 196 machines in used in 1905, as against Al in 1904, while the amount of coal undercut by machines increased from 577,S17 short tons in 1903 to 741,17o tons in 1904, and 1.74s47s short tons in 1905.
