IN STORE FOR
RAIL WAY KING
He VIII Be Charged With
Violation of Anti
Trust Law.

After many weeks of delay
the Hartman report" is
ready.
1t is manifestly a compro-
mise.
Chairman Knapp of the
commission wins on one
point, and Special Attorney
Frank B. Kellogg wins on an
other.
The report does not recon-
mend any prosecution of the
Hartman system or Of Harri-
man, and In this regard
Chairman Knapp has domi-
mated.
He has all along been OPP
posed to prosecution, espe-
cially prosecution of indi-
viduals, In this connection.
There VIII Be Prosecution.
On the other hand, while Chair
man Knapp wins in the appearance,
Attorney Kellogg viii win in the
substance, for according to the best
information obtainable, there is Ia
be prosecution on account of the
Union Pacifc'S control of the South
ern Pacific in contravention of the
Sherman law.
The report which was presented
to the public two months ago is SIM
ply rewritten in the one now issued.
Commissioner Franklin K. Lane has
done the literary work of preparing
the second edition of the report. All
the commissioners unite in approval
| of it.
Lanes Report a Compromise
Mr.. Lanes document presents an in
| teresting comparison. He puts in more
/ invective against Hartman and fewer
| recommendations of punitive measures
/ The Lane report would sound lots worse
/ from a platform. but the Kellogg report
would arouse more apprehension If read
as an indictment in court of law.

His Threat of Ven

Friend Of BOWieS Badly
Beaten by Infuri-
ated Man.

La PLATA, Nd, July 13.-FIeelng

murderOus assaults upon a witness
for the defense In the Bowie trial,
and n peacemaker who attempted to
stop the fight Dennis. POsey, who
took an oath Of blood TO avenge the
killing of his brother, Hubert, Is
believed to have gone to Washing
ton.
Frank Dement, the witness for
the defense, had a narrow escape
for his life when Posey attacked
him with a large-bladed knife.
After being repeatedly felled to the
ground by blows on the face, head,
and body, Dement,, whose testimony
before the coroner last January was
greatly favorable TO Mrs. Bowie and
her son. was pinned to the ground
by the Infatuated brother.
Holding his victim by the throat,
Posey WHIPPED out the knife, and
was about TO plunge it into the
body of Dement, when William Brag-
eonia, a hotel keeper at Pisgah. the
home of the Poseys, ran to the
rescue.
Set Upon Innkeeper.
Turning from the witness for the de-
tense, the enraEed brother set upon the
innkeeper and viciously assaulted him.
Brageonia, a larger man that Posey, got
the better Of the argument. but not I'M
til his countenance had been badly dis
figured After soundly thrashing the
belligerent brother of the Bowies VIC
tim. Brageonia wrested the ugly weapon
from his hands and pOcketed il.
Justice Robertson was sought out and
two warrants for the arrest Of Dennis
were procured. Sheriff TrOtter went to
the home Of the Poseys, Carrying hand
cuffs with him, and expecting to bring
the fighting brother back TO jail with
him. Posey was not to be found at his
home. 1t was stated by employees on the
Pope Crek branch of the Pennsylvania
railroad that he was seen going toward
Washington on the early morning train.
Feud Is Imminent.
A feud is imminent here as a result
Of the jury upholding the unwritten law
on Friday. The POseys are wild with
rage. and it is understood that each
person who gave testimony which as
sisted IN freeing the Bowles will re-
ceive the same treatment as Dement,.
Farmers and merchants are greatly ex-
cited, and the authorities expect a Sc
rious outbreak at any time
Threats of violence have also been
made against members of the Jury who
before or after the trial stated that the
Bowies were justified and should not
be punished.
