NEW YORK, Oct. months
ago a danger sign was placed on
October in the Hartman calendar,
and now the time of trouble is at
hand Two years ago Hartman,
backed by the Standard Oil mil
lions, seemed in fair way to con-
troll nearly all the great railroad
systems in the United States. Now
he has to fight for his life.
Roosevelt and Rogers, though
for widely different reasons, have
forced him into corner. The pres
ident contributed his share by dis
closing Hartman as wrecker.
Rogers has all he can do to save
his own hide and is in no position
to help others. His tremendous
losses in copper, the demands made
upon him by the road he is build
ing in Virginia and the troubles OF
Standard Oil are heavier than he
can bear as it is.
The first day of October marked
the passing of Chicago & Alton con-
troll from Hartman to the Glover
Leaf system, which is controlled by
his ancient enemy, Edwin Hamley.
The Union Pacific, which is Har-
riman, retains $10,000,000 preferred
stock in the Alton ON which the
Glover Leaf is to pay dividends. 1t
is a minority interest, however, and
Wall st. is figuring that it will not
take Mamley long to render the
stock worthless.
On October s the annual meeting
of the Union Pacific will be held
at Salt Lake City. While it does
not seem possible that Hartman
will lose control, there has been
doubt enough about it to keep him
awake nights. His enemies have
been buying heavily of Union Pa
cific stock since last spring. When
trouble came TO Rogers he was
obliged to unload 60 900 shares OF
that stock which is alleged to have
been bought by ]. P. Morgan & Co.

ing of the Illinois Central will

FAIR WAS GREAT
M0NEY-MAKER

The most financially successful
fair in the history or the Inland
Empire closed Saturday evening.
when the gates to the Interstate
fairgrounds were closed for the
season The total attendance was
given at 12S,4S0, against 1883
last year. The bar privileges paid
the association $500, and the
bookmakers paid $3.50 for each Of
the 81 races, aggregating $15,750.
The receipts at the outer gate were
$4,000 and the grand grand ST.
600. Besides these receipts there
was a lot of other money received
for the various concessions about
the grounds.
The racing was successful from
the bookmakers' standpoint Most
of them. it is stated, were framed
up so the public's money could be
appropriated without the rough
means OF knocking the bettors over
the head.

Four new strikebreakers ar

this morning and were welcomed
by Supt. Putnam, General Master

chanic Clark, who instructed them
in their duties and assigned them
to hunks in the Sleeping car

arrived on the belated No. l pas

BROWN CASE IS
TANGLED Up

BAKER CITY, Ore, Oct. T.
The accepted theory that Harvey
Brown must have been killed by
agents of the Western Federation
of Miners has brought the pursuit
of the assassins to standstill, as
no evidence has been found to sup
port the theory and the authorities
appear ddisinclined to work on any
other.
The only results for far accom-
plished is the arrest Of Dan Allen.

today, as there Is nothing to i'm
plicate him. AS the case stand
now, the bloodhounds have been
called off and will be sent back

Thiel detective agency. has been
accused of treachery by Gov.
Gooding, of Idaho, newspaper cor
respondents are at war over the
reliability of their reports and ev-
erything is at odds and ends.
Mrs. Brown talks wildly of fear
ing that the men who killed her
husband will also kill her if she
tells what she knows. At the
same time she maintains that the
miners federation had nothing to
do with the killing. She declares
Brown was murdered as the result
of some private business and that
he had not been working on fed
Grafton cases for six months prior
to his death.
Gov. Gooding entered the case
by sending his secretary, c. E. FL
mer, and Sheriff Hodgin, who i'm
mediately knocked Capt. Swain by
charging that he is employed by
the miners and offered to prove 1t.
Swain says:
Petty spite against me on the
part of Gov. Gooding inspired the
attack. 1t is too ridiculous to an
swer or deny. 1t is dirty work of
Gooding to attempt to hamper my

WHAT i COSTS

Here rs a sample OF the demOral-
izing effect Of betting at the Inter-
state fair races, which closed last
Saturday.
The wife of Northside resident,
after receiving check for $125,
went out TO the track, and over
come with the excitement of the
handsome thoroughbreds galloping
madly around the track, bet 1t all
and lost. She did not pay the rent
nor the grocer's bill. Then, rather
than tell her husband what she had
done, she put her engagement ring
and several other pieces of jewelry
in pawn and tried to retrieve what
she had lost by betting the money
raised on the jewelry. This she also
lost.
In the evening her husband came
home. The woman broke down and
confessed how she had lost every
thing in the betting ring. 1t Is
stated that the husband, who al
ways before was a sober man, quit
his job next day and has been
drunk ever since. despite efforts Of
friends to brace him up.

Italian laborers who were packed

TO END SCAvfNCER WAR

Councilman N. S. Pratt, father of
the ordinance which proposes to
place the operation of the crema-
tory, street cleaning and garbage
collection in one department. re-
turned last night after a month S
vacation. Today he stated that at
tomorrow nights meeting of the
council he will ask the council to
go into committee of the whole for
discussion of conditions at the
crematory since the garbage men
refused to haul to it on account of
what they call the eXorbitant price
of 81 ton which the board of pub.
lie works recently put in effect.
The scavengers will be invited to
present their side OF the question,
and also asked to show where the
graft is which they threatened to
expose.
Councilman John Gray this
morning stated that from his best
understanding. councilmen general
ly favored putting a stop to the
controversy by having the city take
over the business. He says he be-
lieves the Pratt ordinance will be
passed Tuesday night.

None of the strikers since they
arrived last week have mustered
up courage to go uptown. Orders
of officials are that when not work

shops and at night must remain
within the fort. They are herded
just like sheep.

served at 6 and by the men are
making efforts to initiate the hum
OF industry.
Some few machinists, since the
strikebreakers arrived, are back at
work. When the boilermakers
struck, the machinnists were all
laid off.
The machinists have as yet re-
ceived no orders to go out on strike
in sympathy with the boiler
makers and do not expect it.
Notwithstanding denials of OF
ficials of the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific railways, the
boilermakers' strike has seriously
interferred with the movement of
freight trains because of lack Of
necessary repairs.
At Pasco the company put

ing boilers. Just what success at

patch up leaks and make other re-
pairs Is not known. There Is no
doubt but that the companies have
hired anyone they could get to
make a showing in the hope that
the spirit of the strikers would be
broken and they would return to
| work in force.
The best the companies can
hope for with the men they have
is to make simple repairs to loco
motive boilers that are already in
! fair condition.
