The doctor laughed heartily as he
finished his little tale and concluded
by saying:
There have been occasional rumors

fancy that is the biggest mystery Car
ney-Croft ever had"
Doctor" returned seriously, there
is far greater mystery than that 60

tunnel is again occupied, by whom
do not know, but the man or men who
are down there are in league with that
Bruce woman who lives in the new
cottage. and with jerks, the stage
driver. Moreover, these people are
connected in some inexplicable way
with Miss Weston, and the Bruce
woman, who seems to be the head and
front of the whole thing, has written
letters to Miss Weston, and even to
me, most Of which contain vague ref
erences to Miss Carney and threats
that"
'The Bruce woman written to you!"
exclaimed the doctor. Why, my dear
sir, 1t is impossible / have known
the woman for dozen years and she
cannot read word or write letter!"
At that moment he was summoned
hurriedly to Miss Weston's room and

FEDERATION OF EMPLOYERS.
Meeting Is Held in New York tc
Formulate Plans for Organizing.

New York.-Delegates from nine
teen employers associations in the
United States met at the Waldorf-As-
toria to form a general federation or
organization of employers. The move
ment is the outgrowth of a resolution
adopted by the National Association
of Manufacturers at it's annual meet
ing in May.
officers of the national association
were instructed to establish and
finance council to serve as a means
of harmonizing and federating the va
rious national and state organizations
of employers, merchants and citizens,
SO as to get them to cooperate with
the manufacturers in an educational
campaign for the promotion of indus
trial peace and mutual good will"
James w. Vancleave of st. Louis.
president of the National AssociatiaN
of Manufacturers, who presided pen4
ing formal organization, said:
More than seventy-five per cent.
of the national organization of en-
ployers have responded to the call to
form federation. Especially, our pur-
pose is to defend our common inter-
ests as employers and as public-spir-
tied citizens against assault from any
quarter. There is not the faintest
shadow of truth in the report that the
federation's money and influence are
to be used to crush labor unions"

at the meeting are the Citizens In

Still, she had assumed all RESPONSE

CHAPTER XIV.
A Drive in the Storm,

A moment later the doctor returned
hurriedly to the library for his medi-
cine case and said:
Il wish we could get consultation
here in the country" he continued,
measuring out some powders with a
critical air and depositing them on
bits of paper which he had cut for the
purpose. Most of the deaths in this
part of the world are from accident or
old age, and a man with large city

rience might possibly suggest some
means of prolonging her life for a

TELEGRAPHERS HOLD OUT AND
BOTH SIDES CLAIM SIG.

GoMPERS HOPES FOR "HoNoR.
ABLE ADJUSTMENT AT oP-
FORTUNE TIME"

Denver.-The usual number of con.
f1icting statements by telegraph and
strike officials appear, both sides
claiming victory. y
More operators were at work in Chi
cago and New York Monday
In Denver the service was not as
good as on Saturday and the men who
have been working long hours under
unfavorable conditions since the strike
began are showing exhaustion, but the
managers claim to be handling tl0
business promptly.
Chicago.-The developments in the
telegraphers' strike comprise the
calling out of leased wire operators in
six brokerage houses and the issuing
of a number Of conflicting statements
regarding the progress of the strike by
the officials of the union and by those
of the telegraph companies.
Both sides claim to have the strike
won. The telegraph companies how
ever, are daily increasing the number
of men at work, and both of them have
on the board of trade larger number
of operators than at any time since the
commencement of the strike.
Many of the messenger boys who
struck the day following the walkout of
the operators returned to work
All efforts by outside parties looking
toward adjustment of the trouble have
been abandoned and the contest to all
appearances has settled down to
waiting game on both sides.
Washington-Presid Gompers of
the American Federation of Labor re-
ported to the executive council of the
federation that he. John Mitchell of
Indianapolis and Daniel j. Keefe of
Detroit had been entrusted by united
labor with an attempt to bring about
"an honorable adjustment of the te
legraphers' strike at an opportune
time"
Mr.. Gompers was asked when he
thought that the time would arrive,
and replied that he could not say, but
that it might be "in an hour, in
week or month, or perhaps not at
all"
Los Angeles.-The telegraph situa-
tion in southern California and south
western Mexico is without change.
The Western Union office here has now
forty-five operators on the day al
night forces, as against seventy at
the time of the strike. The only point
in the territory here that remains per
manently tied up is Prescott, Arizona,
where destruction of the companys
property is threatened. No violence
has occurred there.
Interference with Western Union
wires is daily growing less, according
to company officials. Saturday an un-
known operator on the Denver & Rio
Grande road grounded six of the com
pany's most important wires.

ship to their masters, the people. Mr.
Roosevelt knows no favorite in mat
ters of lawlessness, be he rich or poor,
corporation president or member of a
labor union. The courts must be
strong enough to restrain them all.
"Mr. Roosevelt believes our present
government the best possible one for
us, and in every way adapted to the
genius of our people. He has the ut
most confidence in the capacity of the
people through their representatives
and by the means provided in the con-
stitution by our fathers to remedy the
evils that arise in our material prog
ress.
"Mr. Bryan's whole system of rene
dies, on the other hand, for the evils
that both Mr.. Roosevelt and he and
many others recognize, Is based on his
distrust of the honesty, courage and
impartiality of the Individual as an
agent on behalf of the people to carry
on any part of government and rests
on the proposition that our present
system of representative government,
is failure.
"He would have the government
ownership Of railways, because he does
not believe 1t is possible to secure an
interstate commerce commission that
the money power cannot and will not
ultimately own.
"Mr. Bryan seems to be seeking
some system Of administering law un.

certainly restrained. while the lawless
poor shall escape. He would have his
judicial machinery adjusted to restrict
the violations of law by corporation,

WORK VIRTUALLY AT AN END.
The word of the American Breeders
Protective Association is virtually at
an end. The many uses to which
these thoroughbred mares may be put,
even after they are no longer con-
sidered desirable for thoroughbred
purposes, has created for them a
definite, fixed market value. At the
recent winter sales in Lexington we're

from one to two hundred dollars for

limited her usefulness, and willing to
give the pedigree Of these mares to

Association so that they might not
thereafter be known or considered
IS thoroughbreds, thus doing for the
Association the very work which here
tofore it has been compelled to do for
itself. Realizing this, gentlemen con-
nected with the Association suggested
in November that whatever funds
might remain in it's treasury after the
winter sales should 60 to a Breed
ing Bureau created by the Association
which should have for its object the
donating of thoroughbred stations to
the people of Kentucky in order to
help improve the general class of their
stock
BREEDING BUREAU ORGANIZED
The Kentucky Breeding Bureau was

by the election of Col. E. F. Clay, Of
Bourbon county, as chairman, Mr.. Geo.
H. Whitney, of Fayette county, as

Mr.. Whitney, two other prominent
breeders of thoroughbreds are mem

In many sections of the country and
in the minds of many men who have
never given the subject any great
amount of study, there is an almost
unaccountable prejudice against the
thoroughbred horse. He is considered
useless for any practical purpose. He
is regarded simply as a racing tool.

prejudice have less real basis Of foun-
