Next Attraction @OId Arkansaw"

Everything that mechanical and ar
tistic ingenuity can offer has been
brought to bear in the production Of
"Old Arkansaw," and the result Is a
series of pictorial, sensational and me-
chanical effects that make recent dra-
matte productions OF this kind look
tame by comparison. The play Ia In
four acts Complete sets of special
scenery and stage equipment are car
ried for each act. and the following
scenes of the play. viz. The Rail-

previous efforts. both as a valuable
acquisition to dramatic literature and

a rural melodramatic comedy with n

DISCLAIMS
RESPONSIBILITY FOR PANIC

Nashville, Tenn, Oct. 23.-President
Roosevelt in his address at the Audi
torium here yesterday said: There
has been trouble in the stock market; !;
in the high financial world during the
past few months. The statement has
frequently been made that the policies
for which l stand are responsible for
that trouble. Now, gentlemen, these
policies of mine can be summed up in
one brief sentence. They represent
the effort to punish any successful
dishonesty. I doubt II these policies
have had any material effect in bring
ing about the present trouble. but II
they have it will not alter In the
slightest degree my determination
that for the remaining sixteen months
of my term, these policies shall be
pursued conservatively."

STRIKE OF RAILROAD
OPERATORS Is AVERTED

Denver, Oct. 23.-From an authori-
tative source it is reported that there
will be no strike OF the D. & r. g.
telegraphers, and at 6 O'Clock last
evening, Operator Skeggs, over whose
discharge the trouble occurred, sent
a letter to President Perham asking
that no strike be ordered on account
Of his discharge. He said that he did
not want all Of his friends thrown out
Of work just on his account.
Accordingly President Perham with
drew the demands that had made to
Vice President Schlacks of the D. &
r. G. for the reinstatement of Skeggs.
Naturally such a procedure on the
part Of the operators indicates there
was an agreement of some kind. What
1t was is not known yet and so far
as the general public Is concerned II
Is not Of much vital importance.
That the strike ID averted is the one
thing the residents o fthe state are
interested In.
r. No doubt Mr.. skeggs will be looked
after in some manner, else the Or
ganization Of which he is a member
would not hAye backed down and with
drawn their demands.

BOULDER BANKER REPORTS
ON BANKS CONDITIONS HERE

Boulder, Oct. 23-Harry Cassidy,
president of the Boulder National
bank, yesterday returned from an ex-
tended trip to the financial sections
of the East. In discussing the general
financial conditions of the United Sta
tes last evening he said:
while away l found that New
Yorks Wall street is the only place
where money is really tight and those
people are to blame themselves for
the conditions that exist The failure
of the Knickerbocker Trust company
will not affect the general financial
conditions. In fact 1t will have a ten
dency to straighten matters up or
rather to clear them up.
80 far as the West is concerned 1t
has plenty of money and can pull
through. Perhaps that is what is the
trouble with the Wall street banks.
The West has been Withdrawing its
money from those banks that have
been known to have been speculating,
and when the furry came they could
MT stand up. So far as this section
Of the country and SO far as Colorado
is concerned, we have all the money
we need and there is no necessity for
any uneasiness regarding any of the
states institutions. Money will be
tight for perhaps little while, but
In time the market will respond to
local conditions and the prosperous
condition will continue.
"All you need to do Is to look al
the clearing house reports. The 3e
show that a greater volume Of busi-
ness was transacted last week than
wa stransacted in the corresponding
week year ago. This of itself tellf
the story. The country is prosperous
its financial institutions are safe and
1t is only those Wall street spectators
that will get hurt, and the sooner the,
are cleared OF the better"

COLORADO HAS WON ITS
BATTLE WITH KANSAS

washington, Oct. ZS.-lne supreme
court of the United States Monday
declined to allow the Kansas versus
Colorado case to be reopened by deny
ing a petition for rehearing submitted
by the state. of Kansas.
The case, which was an attempt on
the part of Kansas to prevent the
state of Colorado from using for irri-
CATION purposes the waters Of the
Arkansas river, was decided by the
supreme court last spring in favor of
Colorado.
This hand on this sheet happened
to be in Garden City, Kansas, last
May when the United States supreme
court dismissed the suit of the state
of Kansas against the state of Color
ado. In talking with short grass
pioneer, the Kansan thus delivered
himself: "The fact that Kansas has
lost this irrigation business does not
surprise the older residents of the
Arkanas valley. The contention of the
Kansas attorneys that Colorado ap-
propriated water which should flow
down the river causing great injury
to the short grass farmers, has always
been considered a great joke in this
section. The water does not "fiow"
in the river in this section except dur
ing the period of the spring floods.
Go look at it now. Any kid can wade
anywhere and in another week the
bed of the river will be as dry as this
street is this morning The disap-
pearance of the water from the Ar
kansas river bed was noted by the
gold seekers who crossed the plains
in "49." The dismissal of the suit,
however, will not change the situa-
ton regarding the appropriation OF
the last legislature, for the attorneys

money and Kansas gets the double
Cross"

PROBABLE CAUSE FOUND.
Man and Woman Arraigned, Charged
With Serious Offense.

A Gardiner man and Randolph woman
were arraigned before Recorder Atkins
yesterday afternoon charged with stat
utory offence. The parties were Mrs
Leona Smith of Gardiner and Arthur Ty-
Ter of Randolph. 1t developed in the
hearing that the parties had hired a room
representing themselves to be man ana
wife. Probable cause was found and Iy-
Ter and Mrs. Smith bound over to the
January term of court. Up to late hour
yesterday they were unable to secure bail.
TYLER appeared in the court room with
one eye and his right hand bandaged
and it was on account of these injuries
that the relations between him and Mrs.
Smith came to the knowledge of the Off
GERS.
Tyler went to Officer Cusick Monday
night with blood running from his face
and hands and claimed that he had been
set upon and assaulted on leaving his
rooms Investigation by Officer Cusick
showed that the feshy part Of Tyler's
right hand had been cut with knife and
that he had been struck severe blows in
the face. The officers claim that Tyler
told number of conflicting stories in re-
gard to the way in which he received the
wounds. In the court room yesterday Ty-
Ter said he thought the men who assault
ed him were Italians.
The case against Tyler and Mrs. Smith
was worked up Yesterday by Marshal An
drews ana Deputy Sheriff Burns, and the
hearing held Immediately after the arrest
of the parties. The husband of Mrs
Smith has commenced action against her
for divorce
