TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND RAIL
WAY EMPLOYEES ASK AN IN.
CREASE IN WAGES.
MANAGERS ANTICIPATE NO TROUBLE
SAY EXISTING DIFFERENCES ARE
CAPABLE OF SATISFACTORY
ADJUSTMENT.

New York, Oct. 25.-News has been
received in Wall street that formal
demands for increased wages and
shorter hours had yeen made upon
the management by the engineers,
firemen and switchmen on the Rock
Island and Frisco railway systems,
both of which are controlled by the
Rock Island company. Similar de-
mands, it was said, had been made by
the men on a number Of the other
large Western systems. 1t was stated
that ultimately total of $4,000 men
employed on the railroads in the West
will demand increased pay or shorter
hours, or both.
Railroad officials were inclined to
take a hopeful view of the situation,
saying that the attitude of the men is
entirely amicable and that there is no
indication of the likelihood Of any hot
headed action, A representative Of
the Rock Island system was inclined
to make light of the report that the
management Ol THAT anu OtHeI loduo
were troubled over the outlook The
present demand of the men, he said,
is only one of the similar demands
which are made from time to time
and which are capable of satisfactory
adjustment between the employees and
the officials of the road.
Some of the railroad officials said
the report of big earnings and the
declaration of increased dividends was
probably responsible for the agitation.

oELRlcHs WILL CONTEST.
Widow Files Objection to Probatins
Document. #es

New York, Oct. 25-Mrs. Herman
Oelrichs of this city has filed an OBJ
lection in court to the probate of the
will of her late husband, Herman Gel
richs. Her objection Is based on the
ground that Mr., Oelrichs was not a
resident Of New York, but of Califor-
Ma Mr.. Oelrichs left the bulk of his
estate to his brother and sisters.
In an affidavit filed by Mrs. Oel-
tichs she declares that at the time of
her husbands death he did not have a
residence in New York and she has
no knowledge or information sufficient
to form belief as to whether he died
leaving any property in the city Of
New York. Mr.. Oelrichs' residence
at the time of his death was in San
Francisco, the affidavit continues, and
he had in that state property and at
the time of decedent's death he left
creditors in the state of California
who are now creditors of his estate
and residing in that state"
The affidavit goes on to say that in
September Mrs. Oelrichs was appoint
ed special administrators of the estate
by the courts of California and the
laws of California are quoted to show
that upon the death of husband one
half OF the community property shall
go to the surviving wife or widow and
that the surviving widow canont be
deprived of such interest by tesla
meatary disposition.

London, Oct. 25.-Ten women suf-
tragists who were arrested Tuesday
for rioting within the precincts of the
house of commons were arraigned in
police court and bound over to keep
the peace for six months. Such a
commonplace outcome of the affair did
not meet the views of the suffragists.
who apparently desired to assume the
roles of martyrs by being committed
to Jail, and when the magistrate an
nounced his decision a great uproar
broke out in the courtroom and ulti-
mately the women had to be removed
by force Some of them were literally
thrown out among the crowds waiting
outside the building.
The shrieking women continued to
make a demonstration outside the po-
lice court until Miss Pankhurst, who
took prominent part in the disturb
ances in the ladies' galleries of the
house of commons in April, was again
arrested.
When the disturbances had some

the defendants, who were then in
formed by the magistrate that they
must Immediately find sureties for
their good behavior or be imprisoned
for two months. The whole ten women
refused to enter into recognizances

The suffragists were conveyed to
Holloway Jail.

MOODY GOES ON BENCH
PRESIDENT WILL NAME ATTOR.
NEY GENERAL TO SUPREME
COURT VACANCY.
PROPOSED CHANGES IN the CABINET
GEORGE Won /. MEYER AND OS-
CAR S. STRAUS WILL BE-
COME MEMBERS,

Washington, Oct. 25.-While no Off
cial statement is obtainable unofficial
information confirms the report that
the president will appoint Attorney
General William H. Moody of Massa-
chusetts to the vacancy in the SUI
preme bench made vacant by the re-
tirement Of Associate Justice Henry
B. Brown. The announced intention
of the president to appoint Mr.. Moody
to the supreme court bench came as
a surprise, as it was generally under
stood that he had eliminated the at
torney general from consideration in
that connection because of the fact
mainly that Massachusetts already has
a representative on the bench in the
person Of Associate Justice Holmes.
Mr.. Moody's nomination will be sent
to the senate when congress convenes,
but the general expectation is that he
will not take his seat on the bench
until about Jan. |. when. as previously
announced he expects to retire from
the attorney generalShip.

GEORGE Won LENGERKE MEYER,

ury, George B. Cortelyou; postmaster
general, George Won L. Meyer; attor-
ney general, Charles j. Bonaparte;
secretary of the navy, Victor H. Met
calf; secretary of commerce and labor,
Oscar S. Strauss
The general understanding for some
time has been that Attorney General
Moody will retire on Jan. 1, 1907, and
that Secretary Shaw will follow him
on March 4. On the first of the year,
therefore, Mr.. Bonaparte, who is now
secretary of the navy, will succeed
Mr.. Moody as attorney general and he
will in turn be succeeded by Mr. Met
calf, the secretary of commerce and
labor, the latter's place being filled by
Mr.. Straus. Mr.. CortelyOu, now post
master general, will take Secretary
Shaw's place on March 4, at which
time Mr.. Meyer is to become post
master general.

''Ho, boys, q fine grunterr'
It was a pig that had been a pet in

A ring was formed, and Shorty came

American was handy with his fists.
He quickly laid his opponent low. The

says that an epidemic of disease which
doctors have confessed themselves un-

The disease already has brought two
victims to the grave and there are at

over 800 cases. Its victims are first

to the ranks of Austrian laborers,
nearly 5000 of whom have been
brought to the town from Buffalo, N.

buildings.
Within the past week, however, the
disease has spread to the townpeop1e.

Not FIatterfng.

had the bitter pleasure of reading
many not fattering obituaries of him
self. Through an error he was report

native land declared unanimously that
he had left no good work behind. An
American editor dined with Barring
Gould in London. The talk turned to
the premature obituaries, and the
American said, "How did you feel on
reading them?" Taken aback, non
plused, the novelist grimly replied:

It was during the earlier and less for

to give himself some credit for having
had hand in Kean's theatrical educa-
ton. When Macready's name was be-
coming known in the dramatic world
Richardson was asked if he had seen
him.

eattIeship Minnesota Makes 1860
Knots an Hour.
Rockland, Me-, Oct. 25.-The battle
ship Minnesota, a sister ship of the
Louisiana, began her acceptance trials
during the day. The first was the
standardization of her propellers in
fourteen runs over the mile course off
Owls Head. The speed required by
contract is eighteen knots.
The Minnesota exceeded her con-
tract speed, her average for five runs
having been 1860 knots On the best
run speed of 19412 knots was at
tanned. In all twelve runs over the
course were made at varying speeds
for the purpose of ascertaining the
number of evolutions of the propellers
necessary to maintain certain speeds.
The Louisiana, on her acceptance trial
last December, averaged 1851 knots
an hour on her best five runs.
