Potatoes Good Crop.

only about 400 carloads of potatoes
r.main in the Greeley district to be
r,arketed. The total for the season
will run very close to 1000 car
Dads, OF a good average annual out
put. In spite of great deal OF talk
and kick about scarcity OF cars the
crop has been moved out of here as
fast as usual, and there will be no
potatoes thrown out for want of
transportation facilities.
The price throughout the season
has been fairly satisfactory also, so
that the potato industry has been
excellent, taken as whole.
A somewhat larger acreage than
last year will be planted this spring.
The California crop is said to be
practically ruined by floods, and as
California is one of Colorado's
strongest rivals in the business, the
elimination of that state from the
field gives Greedy farmers courage to
grow more potatoes than ever this
season

The United States Will Soon Take
 More Active Measures.

Constantinople, March Tt is intimated that the United States will soon take active measures to enforce its demands, for official recognition of the American schools and mission ary establishments in Turkey should the removal of the existing difficult ties be much longer delayed. The ministerial committe appointed to deal with the question has been sit- ting at the Yildiz palace and has al- ready reaffirmed the settlement ar- ranged three years ago with the American embassy and new decree approving the agreement has been submitted to the sultan. It is hoped that his majesty's signature will re- move the obstacles placed by ire sponsible officials in the way of the proper execution of the arrangements. All the details necessary for the full fillment of the agreement were de- c!ded upon by the American embassy and the responsible department of the porte at the time the settlement was reached, and the consequently Am bassador Leishman has resolutely re- fused to consider all suggestions, to reopen the discussion on the ubject.

Dowager Empress of Russia Disappointed Ministers Who
 Went 10 Meet Her
VISITING THE QUEEN

London, March 1.-The dowager empress of Russia arrived here this morning and was greeted at the rail- road station by her sister. Queen
 Alexandra, the prince and princess of Wales and the staff of the Rus sian embassy. The empress reached London half an hour earlier than the time publicly announced and several foreign ministers who had not been
 apprised of the change arrived at the station after the departure of the royal party. The expediting of the empress arrival was. it is understood, planned by the police, who have talk en stringent precaution for her pro- lection. While the officials of Scot land Yard have little fear that the anarchists in London will jeopardize their chances of obtaining an asylum in England by any attempt on the life of the empress they are taking no chances and every possible av- enue of attack will be guarded. From the railroad station the dowager en- press and the queen drove to Buck ingham palace.

STEVE ADAMs's CASE.
Man Arrested Year Ago on a
 Charge of Murder.

Wallace. Ida. March No word has come as yet from the jury delib- erating on the case of Steve Adams. The general impression is that they will disagree.
 Steve w. Adams was arrested in Oregon more than a year ago on the charge of having murdered Fred Tyler. claim jumper" in the St Joseph river region of Idaho, in Au- gust, 1904 Jack Simpkins, also wanted in connection with the same murder, is still fugitive from jus tice. Adams was taken to the Idaho penitentiary at Boise. There he was informed that Harry Orchard. in con- fesstng the assassination of former Governor Frank Steunenberg, had implicated the Western Federation of Miners in that crime and had as- serted that Adams knew about the plot to assassinate Steunenberg, and that Adams could be brought back to Idaho on the charge of killing Tyler. Adams made confession to Detective Mcfarland in the pres ence of witnesses while still in the penitentiary admitting that he had shot Tyler with rife at the behest of Jack Simpkins. Adams also told of the murder of Bouls, another claim jumper, and of an alleged plot by the Western Federation of Miners to "get" Steunenberg. When the case finally came to. trial. Adams as- serted that he had been forced to give the confession and that the de- tectives had assured him of freedom if he would make a statement involv- ing the Western Federation of Miners in the assassination of the former governor of Idaho. Detective Mcfarland and the witnesses to the confession testified that no promises of immunity were made. This testi- mony was denied on the witness stand by Adams .
 The trial of President Mover, Sec retary Haywood and Committeeman Pittibone of the Western Federation of Miners on charge of instigating the murder of Steunenberg will prob- ably come up for trial at Caldwell within few days.

RAILROAD
 CONTROLS IT The Consolidated Company Gets Line Which Operates Between
 Boston and Savannah ONE OF OLDEST LINES Capitalized at Six Million Dollars and Has a Fleet of Eighteen Steam.
 CTS Plying Between Boston
 and Other Ports.
ONE OF OLDEST LINES

Boston, March 7.-The New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad has acquired control of the Merchants & Miners Transportation company, which operates lines of steamers be- tween Atlantic coast points from Boston to Savannah, Ga, according to statement made to-day by Mayor John F. Fitzgerald of Boston. Mayor Fitzgerald said that this information came out at the conference held here yesterday between the mayor and Charles s. Mellen. president of the New Haven road concerning the transaction said to be pending be- tween the New Haven road and Charles W. Morse of New York for the purchase of the sound lines con- trolled by the railroad.
 The Merchants & Miners company has fleet of IS steamers plying be- tween Baltimore, Newport News, Norfolk and Providence. Another line runs to Boston while a third runs from Baltimore and Savannah to Philadelphia.
 The steamship company is capital ized at $6,000,000, of which $2,000,- 900 in stock has been issued. It has $300,000 bonds outstanding. The company is close corporation with head offices in Baltimore. It is one of the oldest steamship lines on the coast, having been incorporated in 1852.
 Details of the situation could not be obtained in this city to-day, in- quiries at the New Haven roads of- flee being referred to New Haven and at the transportation company's place of business, to Baltimore. It is un- derstood, however, that the railroad was prompted in acquiring control of the steamship lines by the consid- eration that in case it should wish to accept good offer for it's Sound lines, it would be in a position to offer competition for Sound trafhc.

DEATH STEPS IN
The Thaw Trial Postponed on Account of Death in Jnstice's
 Family
TWO MORE WITNESSES

: New York, March IA death in Justice Fitzgerald's family has post poned the sessions of the Thaw trial for a day. On Friday, when court reconvenes, the defense will call two more alienists, probably Dr Graeme M. Hammond and Dr Smith E. Jel- life. who have been in the court room practically every day since the trial began. Before court adjourned yesterday Mir Delmas. leading coun- sel for the defense, stated that there would be but two more witnesses called. The attorneys will devote to- day to forming the hypothetical ques- tion which they will put to these ex- perts. This question. Mir Delmas said last night, will cover every fact in the case.
 This decision makes it certain that a number of the witnesses who have been expected to testify for the de- fense. will not be called. at least in the presentation of the direct case. Among these are Roger O'Mara, Thaw's Pittsburg detective friend, and May Mackenzie, Mrs Evelyn Nesbit Thaw's chorus girl friend.
 The plans. of the defense in regard to what Mrs William Thaw, the mother of the defendant would tes- tify to were changed. It had been announced that she would testify to insanity in her family, but Mir Dell mas would not allow her to do so ev- en after she had asked in open court to be allowed to. This was probably due to the fact that the defense does not desire to pile up any more evil derlce of the taint of insanity ill Thaw's blood. The defense goes on the theory that Thaw was insane from early in 1903 until after June 25, 1906. but that after White was dead hls mind rapidly became normal.
 The defense has not yet introduced testimony to show that Thaw Is in- sane to-day, but may do so by the experts who are to go on the stand Friday. The only evidence that has so far been introduced which tends to show that he Is at present sane is Dr Evans testimony that when he saw him in the tombs, October 3. his condition was greatly improved, and that the improvement was of pro gressiye character.

DIED OF sYNcoPE.
Sixth Member of Cabinet to Pass
 Away in Short Time.

Rome. March 7.-Signor Gallo, the minister of justice, died to-day of syncope. He was born In 1849 and formerly was minister of public in- struction, president of the chamber of deputies and minister of education.
 Signor Massimini. the minister of finance, who was stricken with apo plexy yesterday, is said this morning to be in dying condition
 The impression caused by the death of Signor Gallo and the condition of Massimini is intensified by the fact that the former is the sixth minister of different Giolitti cabinets who has passed away while in office. The op- position newspapers are even limiting at the possibility of a ministerial crisis but in we'll informed circles this Is not considered to be likely.

Talks About Parliament.

St Petersburg, March .-The Russian press to-day editorializes on the significance of the first days pro- ceedings of parliament. The general view is that the self-restraint exhib- ited by both right and left renders speedy dissolution improbable. Parliament will continue in session for six weeks to two months, and possibly longer, and it is believed will make a far better record in construc- tive legislation than its predecessor. The cordial manner in which Presi- dent Golovin was received by Em- peror Nicholas yesterday, the action of the caucuses of all parties, and, above all, the decision of the con servatives to support the petition for the granting of amnesty to all politi- cal prisoners except bomb-thyowers, confirms, according to the papers, this probability, the most hopeful sign being the conservative decision regarding amnesty. showing that the right wing is controlled by tactful leaders who are able to keep the ex- tremists in hand.
 According to gossip, however, a good understanding between the crown and the lower house of parlia- ment is threatened by several indis- cretions on the part of President Golovin, who is quoted as criticizing in private conversation the political intelligence displayed by the em- peror and the empress's grasp of the situation, as shown by the question whether he was a member of the right party, remarks which are sure to reach the emperor in exaggerated form.
 The holy synod has ordered the suppression of a monastery paper edited by monk, Father Iliadore, having a wide circualtion among the lower classes and in which for sev- eral months reactionary articles of the most virulent character have ap- peared, exhorting patriotic Russians to rise and slay all the liberals. One article, which has been reprinted in all the reactionary papers. elaborated full plans for the impressive execu- ton of Count Witte for treason, by hanging him in the great red square of the Kremlin at Moscow.

MARKET IS
 DISTURBED Bears Recovered After Tester days Turmoil and Made On slaught on Early Prices
RELAPSE OF READING
Hartman and Prick Keeping Out eI Sighi--J. J. Hlll Says He Doesn't Wantto Know Anything About
 the Reading Stock.

New York, March 7.-There was continued excitement and disorder in the early stock market to-day as an after effect of the turmoil of yester- day. The opening movement of prices indicated that the bear party had re- coynred from the denloralizati ton caused by the unexpected report yes terday that control of Reading had passed. A vigorous onslaught on prices was made at the start Reading ieself relapsed 3 points from last nights closing price and Canadian Pacific dropped over points on |; re- newal of yesterdays weakness. There were number of other declines of l to 1 1-2 amongst the most active speculative stocks. An immediate rally followed and the nervous and unsettled state was shown in the ire quent fluctuations and great activity of the trading. The failure to clear up the mystery surrounding Reading was the unsettling influence.
 The identity of the buyers and their motives remained in doubt. The sun- dry opinions on the subject were of an accumulation for new control, Il renewed speculative movement by powerful interests on the long side of the stock, or a mere manipulatiye movement to drive in shorts and make an advantageous market for disposing of further holdings.
 On the stock exchange the trading in Reading was watched with the greatest interest. There was further short coverings but otherwise the buying or selling gave no hint of in- side development Operations In the stock during the first hour aggregated about S0,OO0 shares. Henry C. Prick was at his office but refused to be interviewed. At Mir Harriman's office 1t was said that he was expect ed there later to-day. Mir Harriman's associates at Union Pacific head quarters said they had no knowledge of any Reading deal.
 ]. ]. Hill was asked to express his opinion concerning the Reading mat ter.
 II know nothing about Reading and I don't want to know anything about it." he said.
