PRESIDENT SMALL OPTIMISTIC
AS TO TELEGRAPHERS' STRIKE
Claims That Ninety-five Per Cont OF
Operators Are Out and VIII etay
Out Until They Win.

New York.--S. J. Small, president
of the Commercial Union OF Teleg-
raphers. arrived in New York Sunday
morning from the west. Speaking OF
the strike situation, he said:
I'VE have full 95 per cent of all tho
commercial telegraphers in the Unit
ed states on strike. This applies TO
small and large cities. Thousands OF
one-man Offices are closed, and the
KEYS to the doors are in possession
of CITY officials, to be turned over 70
the inspectors of the company when
they arrive. We have started TO
raise a large fund-two of them In
fact. One of these is for the benefit
of the strikers, and the other to be eX-
pended in propaganda work in favor
of government control of the tele-
graph. Although the call for funds
has only been out for few days,
many remittances were received be-
fore | left Chicago and, strange to say,
as much was received for the cam
paign fund as for the benefit of the
strikers. Much has been published
about arbitration, but the cry from
coast to coast is No arbitration"

LEADERS OF THE MEXICAN
REVOLUTION ARE CAPTURED
After a Long Chase Throughout the
United states and Canada, oppo-
hents to Diaz Are in Jail.

Los Angeles with the arrest OF
four Mexicans mere Friday afternoon
the revolutionary movement which un-
der the name of La Junta has for three
years been source of endless trouble
and annoyance to the administration
of President Diaz Is conceded to have
been stamped out. The men in Gus
tody have been hunted through the
western half of the United States, into
Canada, along the Mexican border, un'
til the pursuit grew so hot that they
were unable to venture out of doors In
the day time. When finally over
powered in an obscure section of this
city, the cries for assistance induced
a crowd of several hundred people to
pursue the carriage in which three OF
them were being transported Excited
countrymen threatened TO mob the Off
GERS, calling them kidnapers and assas-
sins.
The men under arrest are Rlchardo
Flores Magoe. president OF the junta,
for whose arrest the Mexican gov
ernment is said to have offered a re-
ward of $4,000; Liberado Rivera, the
secretary Modesto Dias, editor of La
Revolution. one of the four papers
published by the junta, and Antonio
l.. Vilareal The latter is said to have
escaped from jail in FL Paso while
awaiting deportation on charges con-
nected with the recipient revolution in
Cananea about two years ago.
1t is believed that the Mexican gov
ernment. under whose orders the de.
tectiyes have been acting, will make
every effort to secure possession of the
revolutionists. And in this case"
aid prominent Mexican citizen, they
will be shot as soon as they set foot

Seattle, Wash.-What is believed to
be the biggest plot for robbing the
United States mails ever discovered is
now in operation in Alaska. Word has

the third pouch is missing in month
has been reported at Skagway.
The sack contained $4,000 in gold

PostofIice inspectors already in the
north working on two former robberies
have taken up the latest loss. 1t is
almost certain that the sacks were
stolen in transit on the Yukon river
boats between this point and Dawson,
Several men are under suspicion,
but no arrests have been made.
Ever since gold dust shippers decid-
ed to use the mails in sending out the
precious metal instead of patronizing
the express companies as previously,
because Of increased tariff, trouble
has existed. The change necessitates
the employment of guards by the gov
ernment to watch the gold shipments.
AS they have been practically un-
guarded up to date, robberies are easy,
and it is believed that thefts have re-
