GOLDFIELD MINES
READY TO REOPEN
BELIEVED THAT DIFFERENCES
WILL BE SETTLED
Boycott on Sun Likely to BE Dropped
and Work Resumed on
Compromise
Basis
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
GoLDFIELD, New, Sept. 19.-The
labor situation today looks much
brighter and there are good grounds
for believing that the trouble will be
adjusted, the mines reopen and all the
miners return to work by the last of
the week.
The miners meeting last evening ap-
pointed a committee consisting of Off
GERS of the union to represent that body
and hear any and all grievances the
mine owners had to submit.
Several of the mine owners met with
the committee almost Immediately
after adjournment last night and the
meeting was prolonged.
President Clough Of the union said
today:
1.-THE situation is very hopeful for an
early settlement our committee, how
ever has not full powers to settle with
the mine owners. We were only ap-
pointed to hear their grievances and
then to report back to the organization.
l think, however, that the miners will
accept our recommendations, for there
are no differences between the miners
and the mine owners This mining trou-
BILE came up over affairs that did not
arise from differences between the min
ers and their employers as such"
George Wingfeld, chairman of the
mine owners committee, said after
last nights meeting that he firmly be-
lieved that a settlement would be eff
fected this week.
This afternoon members of the miners
and mine owners committee started to-
gether for Tonopah in an immense au-
tomobie.
The purpose of the committee in going
TO that nlaCP ig not known II
ably has something to do with the
boycott of the Goldfeld Sun, which is
owned by a resident of Tonopah, who
also owns paper at that place. 1t
was the methods used in this boycott
and the threat to run out of town every
one connected with the Goldfield Sun,
unless that paper shut up shop, that
aroused the citizens of this place and
caused the mine owners to demand
that the miners union withdraw any
recognition of the industrial workers
of the world

SCANDAL

CHICAGO OFFICERS ACTIONS
SHOWN UP
Inspector Patrick j. LAWN Accused
Of connlvIng at Crime ain
Order to Secure Pro-
motion"

CHICAGO, Sept 13.-Today witnesses
were summoned before the city civil
service commission to give evidence rel
ative to the charges that have been
preferred by Chief of Police Collins
against inspector Patrick ]. LAWN. who
Is accused of conniving at crimes In
his district while police captain.
The chief evidence against LAWN was
given by Patrick P. Mahoney, former
patrolman under LAWN.
Mahoney testified that he was inti-
mately acquainted with a brother of
LAWN who was a police sergeant and
that Patrick J. LAWN, then police
captain, called him into a private room
in the police station and declared that
he was about to take the examination
for promotion to police inspector, and
that it would aid him in securing this
promotion If he could do a good job of
police work before the examination was
held. LAWN then said, according to the
witness:
There is a Dutchman over here on
Wentworth avenue, near Fiftieth
street, who owns jewelry store with
$4,000 to $4,000 worth of stuff in the
safe. Now, you know some handy fel-
lows who can touch the place off. 1t
will be worth $4,000 to me to have the
job pulled off and then turn back the
stun as JnOugn III naQ Deen reldkeH.
Mahoney said that he agreed to the
proposition of LAWN and made arrange
ments with James Clark and Thomas
Barry to rob the place. Several boxes
of jewelry, according to the witness,
were carried from the place, and some
money was secured. which was divided
between the men and himself. The
jewelry was concealed in the basement
of his own house, Mahoney declared.
The next morning he wentto the sta
ton and the captain whispered to him,
asking if he had secured the stuff"
He whispered that he had, and the cap
tain then asked him in loud voice if
he had seen any suspicious characters
around the jewelry store the night be-
FORE II told him." said the witness,
about dividing up the money, and he
laughed, and said the Dutchman would
be lucky If he got any part of the
jewelry back"
Bernard ]. Hagaman, the jeweler,
who was called the "Dutchman" by
the witness, preceded Mahoney on the
stand and said that his place had been
robbed as Mahoney afterward de-
scribed, and said that of the jewelry
taken, some valued at $140O. had never
heen returned.

ST, PETERSBURG, Sept. 13.-'Long

Indeed she never had seen them before
The girls father, admitting that she
had been detected in theft before, tried
to persuade her to confess and reveal
the hiding place of the rest of her
punder, but even under his persuasion
the child remained obdurate and per-
sisted in her denials.
Finally in the ash bucket, Walsh
found a blackened and partly melted
breastpin. Then he discovered what
seemed to be the remains of the ostrich
feathers.
These discoveries were too much for
Edna. She broke down and confessed to
the theft, but claimed that she had
burned everything except the waist
spoons and pocketbook because she
feared detection.
Her Father Weeps
The father, who is a carpenter en-
ployed at present in Santa Monica, ex-
planned that he had come here recently
with his daughter from Pittsburg, Pa,
and that the child had been caught in
thefts in that city. He wept when Edna
was taken to the detention home, but
made no objection to her going. The
girls mother is dead.
In explaining how she had stolen the
things Edna said she had been playing
girls, one of them Mrs. Dows daughter
Mrs. Dow herself had gone down town
Suddenly Edna suggested that she
should be the mamma" and in
carrying out this idea, donned Mrs
Dow's silk waist. all the jewelry, rib
bon, feathers, ets., she could find
picked up the fan and pocketbook and
paraded around the house. Then she
went out on the street and finally dis
appeared.
The other girls are little tots.
The Dow girl is only years old
Whether the older girl frightened
them into remaining silent or whether
they failed to realize what had hap
pened, they said nothing.
1t is said that other families in the
neigh borhood have suffered from nu-
merous petty thefts, but until now
Edna Simmons had not been suspected

GEN. CORBIN DISAPPR0vES OF
"PR0HIBITlON"
Officer Calls Attention to Various
Changes Which He Believes
Would Benefit Uncle
Sans Service
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-Major
General Corbin, in a report to the mill
tary secretary, made public today, con-
tributes his dsapproval of the legis-
lative prohibition against the sale of
beer and light wines in the post eX-
changes.
He also calls attention to the fact
that enlisted men enjoy the right to
deposit their savings with army pay
masters and that congress annually
appropriate money to pay the interest
of these.
The courtesy has not been extended
to officers, but General Corbin says the
discrimination should be terminal ted,
especially where it affects officers serv-
ing in the Philippines and Alaska.
He also recommends "a proper allow
ance of fuel for heating and cooking
purposes, and that gas and electric
lights, when furnished a post should
be provided for officers quarters the
same as in the barracks"
He recommends the retention OF the
grade fo lieutenant general and the be-
stowal of this grade upon all corps
commanders.
DR.. Savage III
Re-enlistments in the army should
cording to General Corbin, except in
special cases. His argument Is to add
to "our military strength by training
number of men by three years en-
lisement and then having them return
to civil life, ready at any time of their
active manhood for service in war;
He also recommends that article 3S
of the articles Of war be revised to pro-
vide that any officer found drunk shall
be dismissed from the service. The
article now provides that dismissal
shall follow the finding of any officer
drunk on duty.
The present system of athletic exer-
cises, he declares, promotes champion
ship feats by few but does not aid
the organization as a whole. He says
it would be much better if by general
systematic training the whole organiza-
tion would double time for mile and
arrive ready and able to put up a fight.
The anti-pass provision of the rail-
road rate bill Is also criticised by Gen.
Corbn. He says that the legislation
has worked hardship upon many Off
GERS and enlisted men by doing away
with the privileges of half rates for
their families and half rates to them
selves when on leave of absence.

NOTORIOUS WOMAN
CRIMINAL LOCATED

NEW YORK, Sept. 13.-The Herald
today says:
Instead of being dead as she was re-
ported from a French prison to which
she had been sentenced for her part
in the robbery of the American Express
office in Paris which sent Eddie"
Guerin to Devils island for life, Chi
cago May perhaps the most notorious
woman criminal in American police
annals is alive and well in Rio de
Janeiro.
May Churchill, alias "Chcago May"
alias May Sharpe, alias May Guerin,
alias May Miller, was concert hall
singer in this country before the de-
tectlve bureau of America and Europe
assumed an active interest in her
career and whereabouts. She had
married. or at least it was SO reported,
a young man of a wealthy family -
Sharpe-when she took up with Ed
die" Guerin of Chicago in London in
1900.
She played a large part in the rob-
berry of the American Express company
in Paris in the following year and in
the resulting trial George Miller, who
appears upon the records as her hus-
band, turned states evidence, and up
on his testimony Guerin was convicted
and sentenced to penal servitude for
life.
He was incarcerated on DeviIS is
land, which had sheltered Dreyfus,
and from this place in 1905 he esca ped
in a manner replete with sensation.
Sentenced to Jail for five years in
1902, the woman's death was reported
and generally credited, but it is not
known in what manner she succeeded
in escaping service of her entire SEN
tence.
Leaving France she surreptitiOusly
visited America, and then went to
Brazil Posing as a widow, she re-
ceived the attention of a young man
who recently killed himself.
1t is believed by those who know the
woman that she will soon return to
this country

Mrs. Pinkham claims that there Is a

arrangement Of the female organism,
and which, while II causes a disturb.
ance similar to ordinary indigestion,
cannot be relieved without a medicine
which not only acts as stomach tonic,
but has a peculiar tonic effect on the fe.

As proof of this theory we call at
tention TO the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y, who was
completely cured by Lydia L. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound after every
thing else had failed. She writes:
For two years I suffered with dyspepsia
which 10 degenerated the entire system that |
was unable 10 attend 10 my daily duties. I
felt weak and nervous, and nothing that ate
tasted good and II caused disturbance In my
stomach. tried different dyspepsia cures,
but nothing seemed TO help me. | was ad-

Compound a trial, and was happily surprised
TO find that II acted like fine tonic and In a
fewdays began to enjoy and properly digest
my food. My recovery was rapid, and in
five weeks was well woman. i have rec
commended II TO many suffering women"
No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquali-
fed endorsement or has such record
OF cures OF female troubles, as has Lydia
Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
