A g. Jewett, lawyer, politician and

Belfast, Me, his home city. The judee
presiding, before being called to the
bench, had tried many cases against
Jewet., who did not entertain a very

officially what is wanted to cover
conditions throughout the state?
Reno wants terminal facilities,
Elko wants cars for cattle, Gold
field wants its freight properly
handled, Ely wants relief from a
railroad that pays for itself every
three months, every other com
munity in Nevada wants something
equally important, and everybody
in the State advocates something
done to the railroads on general
principles.
There are a thousand and one
commodities upon which the tariffs
have to be studied, compared and
revised, and a hundred various
grievances against the railroad i,
some just and some unjust, all of

Gov. Conner In Conference
Today With Official

TWO PLANS HAVE
BEEN AGREED UPON

Montgomery, Ala, August 6.-The
outlook for a peaceable settlement
of the controversy between the South

good this morning. Vice President
Russell of the Mobile and Ohio, rep
resenting President Finley. of the
Southern, was in conference with
Governor Conner. and it is thought
amicable arrangements will be reach

ed. one by which the railroad will
be allowed to withdraw its suit, taken
to the federal court. and the other

parties abide by the decision.
Railroad an Outlaw.
The railroad officials are very de-
sirouS of avoiding any trouble with
the state and the executive officials of
Alabama say that they will meet any
overtures of the road at least half
way, hence there is reason to believe
that the present negotiations will be
successful and that situation which
has been to say the least critical IN
many points, will be amicably set
tied.
The revocation Of the railroads
charter, 1t is generally believed, will
be withdrawn. This revocation place j
the railroad in the position of an
outlaw and gave the state an oppor-
tunity TO cause wholesale arrests of
its employees for conducting trains
and business inside the state without
proper authority.

MAN WITH HATPIN

New York, August 6.-An attempt
to assault a lone woman early today
on a west side street adds another
case to the long list of attacks Oh
women and children in the streets OF
New York. The attack would have
been successful had it not been for
the desperate struggle of Adelaide
Wilder, a trained nurse, who fought
her assailant with hat pin and final
ly routed him.
Her screams brought the police
who pursued the man to Central park
where he was brought to bay with
fusllade IF shots from the revolvers
of the two officers. The man said his
name was Pietro <Daurie, an Italian
peddler.
Brutal Assault.

TAFT WORKS HARD ON
HIS SU NJ ME- R
VACATION
Big War Chief Enjoys ReCre-
alton in Cool Air of =
Canada.
SPENDS HOURS DAILY
WITH HIS SECRETARY

Murray Bay, Canada. August g.
This is the place where Secretary
Taft is spending his vacation. and
joyous vacation it is though l
strenuous one. With him are Mrs.
Taft, their only daughter, Miss Helen,
Robert, the oldest son and child, who
is Yale student in winter, and
Charlie, who Is "a mere childerene."
Here, also are the secretary's
brothers, Charles p. and Henry Taft,
of Cincinnati, with their wives, and
not far away is the summer home CT
Justice Harlan, of the United States
supreme court
Such an outing as this with his
family Is a great treat to a home
loving man like big "Bill" Taft, who
has travelled 100000 miles since he
entered the cabinet, and who will
start on another trip to the Philip
pines in a few weeks, after his va
cation is over. 1t is a rare treat to
see the big secretary bobbing along
toward the golf links to meet one of
his brothers or Judge Harlan in a
friendly match.
The Murray Bay links are laid ont
on the side of thousand hills. There
are IS holes, and these holes are
reached by veritable mountain climb
ing, jumping bitches, travelling along
dusty and rough roads and by other
difficult routes over a rocky way. Il
takes a good three hours to get
around them, and the secretary does
1t with a score of 95.
Ideal Summer Home.
The Taft summer home, outside %
Murray Bay, greatly resembles a
Filipino bungalow, and is fitted
throughout with Filipino mattngs,
scarfs, presentation flags, etc, and
there is even a Filipino servant, Man
tico, who insisted on following the
secretary to the United States.
In the town itself. the little old
French Canadian hill town, M'sieu
Taft is the one important figure.
Prominent Americans of all sorts
come and go during the summer, but
he is the one unfailing figure Of gem
eral interest.
Works With Secretary.
Taft works during the summer
from seven in the morning until
eight or hah-past debating to his
department matters which come By
the night mail.
Then he has breakfast. After
breakfast, rain or shine, he takes his
golf clubs and goes to the links to
put in a full morning.
At lunch time ne turns up bright
and smiling, eats a bite and goes back
to his secretary and his war depart
ment again for several hours.
Late In the afternoon he puts
thoughts Of work aside and he and
Mrs. Taft go out to the summer
house, nothing more than a covered
enclosure with some rough seats, to
read and talk.
Late in the dusk of the evening he
and the children play together around
the tennis court or on the lawn. IL
Is a pleasant sight, for, so far as
games are concerned Taft is like
Peter Pan-he has never grown up.
