No Progress Toward settlement.

No Progress Toward Settlement.
Chicago, August 14.-Pending the
arrival of President mall, but lit
tie progress Is being made today in
the effort to secure a settlement of
the telegraphers' strike. The compa-
nies adhered to their discrimination
not to receive any deputation from
the strikers nor to submit anything
to arbitration. Both the Western
Union and Postal managers assert
that they are in better condition than
at any time since the strike began.
Waiting on Small.
New York, August 14.-All mat
ters connected with the telegraphers
strike are practically in allegiance
here today awaiting the arrival of
President Small and other conferees
at Chicago, where an attempt Will
be made to settle the strike. At
Western Union headquarters today
the general manager Of the company
stated that there is no great desire
on the part of the company to treat
with the men, who ii believes, have
treated 1t unfairly.
He also stated that the conference
at Chicago might end the strike
though neither Of the big companies
is disposed to make any radical con-
cessions to the men.
At both Postal and Western Union
offices 1t was declared that business
is being handled in much more salts
factory manner than during the past
few days, and that both companies
can get all the men they want If the
strikers do not soon return to work.
MeSsagea of Death.
one Of the conditions that prevails
in all parts of the country, caused
by delay In handling messages, Is
the fact that messages of death must
take their turn.
Today at the Offices here, a fearful
woman, clad in mourning, personally
requested the operators to call for
small town in Oklahoma to tell them
that she was enroute with the body
OF her son, who died last night. 1t
was impossible to get the message
through, as the relay station through
which the telegram must pass TO
reach its destination, is out of COM
mission and II is probable that the
mother with her dead boy will ar
rive at their destination before the
message can be delivered, though a
striking operator made a desperate
effort TO get her message through, his
union comrades consenting to his
using the key for her.
san Francisco, August 1.-THE
delay in handling messages continues
about as usual here, though some As
ISOLATED Press messages are coming
through promptly
The entire state is experiencing
the aggravation resulting from prac~
tically suspended telegraph facilities.
This condition prevails over the
entire country, according to reports
received here today.
All Operators Quit.
San Francisco. Cal. August IA
Fifty Postal telegraph operators
struck yesterday afternoon. Supt.
Storer says that he can handle all
ordinary business although slower
than usual. Manager O'Brien Of the
Western Union, whose men also
struck yesterday. claimed 10 be IN
better shape than when the men went
out on the proceeding strike.

GOVERNMENT MAY SEEK
INDICTMENT OF
HARTMAN
Strong Probability That Heads
of Trusts VIII Be
Vigorously Pros.
eCuted.
JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER
IS NAMED IN LIST
Special Grand jury Has Hot Work
Ahead at Chicago If District
Attorney Sims Can Com
plete His Arrange
mentS.

Chicago. August 14.-visions of
stripes and prison cells are floating
before the eyes of the nations rail-
road kings and trust moguls.
Alarmed by the action of Judge
X. NJ. Lands and the department. of
justice railroad officials fear that
these visions may become stern real
tiles.
In view of the avowed determine
ton of the court and Attorney Gener-
al Bonaparte to make some big men
monopoly, the question is now asked
seriously:
VIII the government make an at
tempt to indict John ID. Rockefeller
himself or f. II. Hartman, or ]. p.
Morgan?
There is apparently answer to the
question in the swift action against
the Chicago and Alton, co-conspira-
tor with the Standard Oil company.
Hartman was head of the Alton
which caused the heavy fine levied
against the oil trust. Is he not .he
responsible party so far as the rail-
road Is concerned? VIII not Judge
Landis' scathing denunciation move
the grand jury to return an indict-
ment against an individual In this
case?
Sims Secret Mission.
taking into account all these
things, the secret mission to some
unknown point of District Attorney
Sims and his assistants this week,
and the fact that secret service oper-
atives and special agents of the de-
partment of justice are at work un-
der orders of the attorney general,
the growing belief that Hartman is
to be made the first example of stern
justice is gaining ground.
1t is understood that the inves1i-
CATION of the special grand jury sum-
moned for August Ia, will be made
under the conspiracy act," which
provides a prison sentence of two
years in case of conviction.
Guilty OF Conspiracy.
The government viii attempt to
prove that all high officials of trusts
or railroads engaged in rebating, who
know of the rebating schemes, are
guilty of conspiracy.
Should the jury decide to go still
further, as is I'm lit power, II could
demand evidence on the steel trust,
the coal trust or any other combina-
ton that 1t desired.
John ID. Rockefeller could be
brought into the inquiry of the grand
jury as well as Hartman. and should
the government meet with success in
prosecution 1t might easily follow up
it's victory in the east and bring j. p.
Morgan and other trust magnates to
the bar of Justice.
Detectives Watch Magnates
To make sure that no important
witness escapes, District Attorney
Sims and his assistants are said to
have called on Capt. Thos. /. Porter
of the secret service. for the loan OF
his operatives. Several new additions
10 the secret service force have re-
Gently been made. These men are
not known to the railroad officials.
1t is said that each day the move
ments of every prospective witness is
noted and a report filed at night.
Should any attempt be made to take
European vacation or go fishing in
Canada, or any effort made to de-
stroy evidence, the district attorney
would at once be informed and the
witness detained

TWO MEN RUN OVER BY
TRAIN NEAR Los
CRUCES
Evidently Asleep as They
Made No Effort to
Escape.
ONE GROUND TO PIECES
OTHER DIED LATER

Las Cruces, n. M, August IA
(Special) 1.-Two men, the identity of
whom is as yet unknown, were run
down seven miles south of this place
at s;47 O'Clock last night by Santa
Fe passenger train No. 10. one was
literally ground to pieces and the
other was so severely injured that he
lived but a couple of hours. Both
bodies are being held here to await
the action of a coroner's jury.
According to Engineer J. w. Lyon,
who was on the engine, the men had
evidently laid down on the track and
gone to sleep. As he approached the
place where they were struck, he saw
a dark object on the track, which had
the appearance of a dog. He whistled
several times, thinking of course that
the animal would get out of the way.
When within a few yards of the OBJ
ject he saw a man sit up in the mid
die of the tracks. Then came the
collision, the engine bounding as IL
passing over something, accompanied
by a duh thud.
The train was stopped and backed
up. With lanterns, Conductor Gif-
ford, who was in charge of the train,
and the brakemen, with the help of
several passengers, began picking up
the remains of the man who had
been run over. The pieces were scat
tered along the track for a distance
of several car lengths. The second
body was found lying beside the
track on the edge of the embank-
ment There was still a little life in
the form, though AZ seemed that
nearly every bone In the body was
broken.
Both are Dead.
Noticing that the man was not
dead, the trainmen moved him into
the baggage car and DIR. Williams, of
Fierro, N. NJ, who was on the train,
was called in. DR.. Williams rode with
the injured man TO Las Cruces, but
his injuries were beyond mending
and he died shortly after reaching
Las Cruces.
A valise, a bundle wrapped in oil
cloth and a large harp were found
beside the track where the accident
occurred, evidently belonging TO the
unfortunates who were killed. The
man found beside the track had the
appearance of being either an Arab
ian or an Italian, but the other one
was so badly disiigured that the re-
mains scarcely bore resemblance TO a
human form. They were evidently
travelling peddlers and musicians,
and were making their way through
the country afOOt. Becoming tired
they had sat down on the track and
fallen asleep. one of them had been
awakened just in time to see the big
engine OF death bearing down upon
him but too late TO save either him
self or his comrade. Some papers
We're found on the bodies, but as
far as could be learned. they failed
TO Identify their owners.

VAlUELESS SAMPLES
WERE TAMpERED WITH
Charges That Affidavit Made by
Him Was Fixed up by Others
AfterWdrd--Severdl WitneS-
SeS Say Place Is Not
a Mine.

Denver, Colo, August 14-Testi-
mony of a decidedly sensational ma
ture was given at yesterdays session
of the trial of the Lost Bullion Span
al court by w. II. Holmes, a Denver
| mining engineer, who visited the
mine for DIR. Saunders, the man who,
II is claimed, had control of it be-
fore the present company.
Holmes declared that the Lost Bull
tampered with his samples, changed
his reports and doctored an affidavit
signed by him for use at the fraud
hearing in Washington.
Report Tempered With.
The witness testified that he went
took fifteen samples from the loca-
ton. He was there from September
21 to September 81, inclusive, of last
year. These samples, he said, he
sent to a Denver assayer, designated
by DIR. Saunders, and the assayer re-
turned only seven of the fifteen sam
pies with assay certificates. These,
the witness declared, were appended
to his report and were subsequently,
changed by the promoters of the
company or their attorneys.
A Natural Cave.
His report was submitted by the
defense as a part of the evidence
they Will put in. The report as sub
mitted, spoke in enthusiastic terms
of the mine, and advised the owner,
DIR. Saunders, at that time, that he
would be justified i'm spending money
to develop the property. Holmes then
stated on direct and cross-examina-
ton that the report had been
changed in those particulars, as he
he had never authorized any one to
quote him as saying the cave in Bear
mountain was a mine. He said:
"In my opinion, the alleged mine
is natural cave. That was my opin
ion at the time of my investigation,
and 1t has not changed since"
COrroborated by Others.
The afternoon session was taken
up almost entirely with the cross
examination of Holmes. Toward the
close of the session yesterday Will
liam Dorsey, Jr,, went on the stand
and told of locating and exploring
the cave during the summer of 1908.
He said that he had been through
the entire workings and that the pas
sages were undoubtedly natural. He
and his father, he testified, had filed
a location on the claim and intended
to exhibit the cave as natural
wonder, but found 1t too damp for
this purpose, so gave up the pro-
ject.
Williom Dorsey, Sr., corroborated
his sons testimony.
j. b. Evans, a mining expert from
Silver City, was put on the stand at
the last minute yesterday afternoon,
and testified that to his knowledge
| there was no paying ore on Bear
mountain nor in that vicinity. That
section of the country he said, has
been thoroughly prospected, as is
evidenced by the numerous prospect
holes to be found there.

WATER THE BEST COSMETIC
Some Pointers on How to Wash the
Face Properly an Aid to a Good
COMPLEXION.

Water Is the most universally .enn-
ploved of all cosmetics, and rightly
applied 1t IS the best. Notwithstanding
that with the great majority the act
of face washing averages more than
twice a day. the number who know
how to do this correctlv is compara-
lively small The enemy to a fine
COMPLEXION is dirt. In no place do
compIexions suffer so much from It
as in the city. especially in those cities
where soft coal is burned. In such
places It is almost impossible to keep
the face clean. says the Washington
Star.
Dust. dirt and impurities collecting
upou the face choke up the pores of
the skin and interfere with the circu-
lation. making the complexion muddy
and causing eruptions. The object of
face washing is to cleanse the face
perfectly For this purpose the water
must be hot-not warm. but hot. Hot.
water does not wrinkle the face; Oh
the contrary. it makes the skin soft
and pliable. A good soap, generally
such as is free from scents and
alkalies. should be used. Different
soaps agree with different skins, and
they should be selected by the expert
ence of the Individual. AS a general
thing mems faces show q clearer. bet
ter skin than women's, though ma
turally il is of a coarser texture. This
is due to the fact that men use much
soap in lathering for shaving, and the
shaving soaps are of much finer qual-
ity than most toilet soaps.
Many compilations are ruined by the
employment of sponges and face
cloths; not that they are pernicious
in themselves. but thev are not prep
erly cleansed after using. They care
iessly are wrung out Of water in which
they have been used and hung out
to dry by the washstand out of the
light, The soap and impurities Of the
water remain in them. and they are
used time after time. the decayed
soap and collected matter is applied
TO the face and will occasion the ap-
pearance of blackheads and little
pimples. and the skin will become
muddy. A sponge is we'll enough in
Itself. but even after being used once
the sponge or the cloth should be
washed most carefully and, after he
ing rinsed in boiling water, hung 70
dry in the sunlight and rain.

prettv Portierss.

It is not always easy to secure ma
terials for portieres that is at once
pretty and inexpensive.
One woman who has been searching
the town over for a fabric combining
the two qualities was almost in despair
when a friend. a decorator suggested
that she get mocha canvas for her
sleeping room doors and velveteen in
soft reseda shades for her library door
way.
The canvas is loosely woven and re-
sembles burlap in appearance, though
much softer and hangs much more
gracefully.
1t costs so cents a yard, and is very
wide.
The lvelveteen which is also double
width. can be obtained in a number
of soft colorings, and while handsome
It is not so rich looking that it kills
everything else in the room.
These portieres may be appliqued
with conventional designs in contrast
ing colors, and are extremely artistic
as we'll as serviceable.
