Railroads have the right to do so at their option and it is for them to determine whether in fact the persons carried at free or reduced rates, are indigent or destitute"
 About one hundred mon brought in here bv the Illinois Central Railroad to take the places of striking freight handlers on the river front. deserted and labor leaders here appealed to Mayor Behrman to require the Illinois Central Railroad to take the men back to Chicago, St. Louis and other points. where they were engaged.
 The railroad officials refused. on the grounds that they would be violating a Federal law in furnishing free transs portation to persons no longer in their employ.

His Wife Paints when He Tells Her
 He Stole Money.

New York, Oct. 12.-George H. Brou- wer, a former member of the New York Exchange who was arrested last night, disclosed the details today of the method by which he admits he used in speculation S100,000 or more of the funds of James H. Olippant & Co. s, ..
 Brouwer was manager of that firms office for several years, after having failed in 1S99 He said today that most of his losses were suffered in spec ulating in copper, smelters. Southern Pacific and the Interborough- Metro politan stocks. He is now penniless. He added:
 "A week ago last Thursday I decid- ed to make a full confession to my family and my nearest friend" Brou- wer said. q was in no danger of being discovered, for I had carefully covered every transaction. could have gone right on and taken a mill lion with nobody the wiser, but I knew I would go insane if I did not con- fess.
 q called my family about me, my wife and two sons, and told them that I had stolen S1O0,000 and perhaps more. My wife tainted. I then took the books before Oliphant and revealed every transaction.
 Besides being the manager for Mir. Oliphant, was carrying a separate ac- count of my own. Jay F. Carlisle was carrying a large account with us and when my account was squeezed. would transfer some of Mir.

FRESH BEAR TRACKS 5ss4 ss3stsl9s ROOSEVELT MAX YET sEB SOME
 SPORT. S The Preniaent WilH Not Go to Tensas Partnh Teday, as Proposed, Sat Will Remain In
 Camp.

StambuoI, La, Oct, 12--The President will not go to Tensas Parish tomor- row, as he announced yesterday he would do. A courier arrived from the Bear lake camp at 2 o'clock tonight. saying that such excellent signs of bears had been discovered there as to persuade him that it would be unwise to change and he decided at the last moment not to do so.
 Late this afternoon, halt was caused on the preparations for the President hunting from East Carroll Parish to Tensas Parish. and when darkness fell, there was still uncertain ties to whether the move would be made tomorrow.
 Before uncertainty arose. Mir. Par ker and Secretary Latta proceeded with the preparations for the removal and before nightfall. considerable progress had been made. The ears for the special train, including the stock car. are ,on their way here and will arrive early tomorrow, whether they are used or not. The tents and other ac- coutrements of the old camp were also brought in today. There are seven wagon loads of them.
 The hunt today has been confined to the Bear Lake, northward, and resi- dents of this section, familiar with both that region and the Monticello region. assert that the probability of securing big game in the lake quarter is much better than ever 1t was at the old camp ground A negro just in from the lake, says that the fresh bear signs there are plentiful and he expresses the opinion that the Presi- dent will find much entertainment there as will cause him to hesitate to leave the place at all. If he should conclude to prolong his stay. provision will be made immediately for the irn- provement of his accommodations which now are quite meagre.
 At the old club house on the lake. are several mattresses in usable con dition, and each of the members of the hunting party, including the President, attached a roll of blankets to his sad dle when they left the old camp yester- day morning. With this combination they were to be very comfortable last night. However, the temperature was higher than it is tonight and they may not fare 80 well If the mercury con tinues to fall. Mir. Shields is acting as commissary and has already sent two wagon loads of provisions to the new headquarters.
 A runner from the camp says that the president and the entire party were Yesterdays hunt for wild cats was fruitless. Otto Winter, who was companion roughrider of the President during the Spanish War, arrived today from his home at Gulfport, Miss, 200 miles away, saying that he could not allow, ''The Colonel" to come so near without making a call on him. He will go to the camp if necessary to see his former commander.
