 All of which is quite clear to the geologists, but which baffies the un- Initiated. It is enough to know that there was something like a chalk age in prehistoric times which embalmed and preserved the bones and forms of the monsters upon which no human eye ever rested. The Cretaceous Sys- tenn is finely shown in the UnEed States. It is evident and manifest along the shores of the Gulf of Mexico, but it's greatest development is found in Wyoming. There are in the splen- did geological museum collected at the University of Alabama some excellent specimens of the bones of prehistoric monsters gathered in the fields of wyo- ming to which the scientists of the world have journeyed.

STRIKE UNCHANGED
FRISCO SITUATION IS CALM AND

Company OmciaIs Say the Refusal of the Men to Return to Work Has Severed the Ex-
 intIng Bond.

San Francisco. June 25.-The situa- tion in the telegraphers' strike re- mains unchanged with everything peaceful around the main offices of the companies and work proceeding as though no tie up of the wires was in existence.
 A formal notice of the Western Union and Postal Telegrahp Companies to their striking operators to return to work was ignored by the men, as was expected. None returned to work and the chief operators and officials of both companies were busy working at the key themselves. The company officials said that the refusal of the men to return severad finally the bond heretofore existing between them.
 Superintendent May of the Western Union declared that his company was engaging men but would not say how many. He said they were coming from all directions and that normal condi tions would prevail soon.
 The Government business was being handled, said Superintendent Storer, without any delay at all
 Although messages are being han dled with reasonable promptness so far, the companies refuse to take them except subject to indefinite delay, ow- in gto the fear of interference with the wires.

PROTECT AMERICAN INTEREST

Washington, June 25.-The possibili- ty of serious trouble In Central Ameri- ca growing out of the disturbed con ditions existing there incidental to the alleged ambition of President Zslaya, of Nicaragua, to form a union of Gen. tral American States, has caused the administration to dispatch the new Cruiser Milwaukee to that locality.
 Orders for her to proceed forthwith from the Mare Island navy yard went forward from the navy department to- day. The vessel Is in command of Commander Charles A. Dove and will go to La Union, San Salvador. The Collier Saturn also has been directed to proceed to La Union and from this vessel the Milwaukee and the gum boat Yorktown which is now at AcaJu- tia, will coal. The stay of the Mil waukee in Central American waters Is problematical and will. in a measure depend on the conditions that develop in that section of the world. She goes ostensibly for the protection of Amer lean interests which are threatened by the situation as 1t now exists.
 The cruiser St. Louis, now on her way to a Brazilian port, Is en route to the Pacific coast and will arrive in Central American waters in about two months. It may be that she will re- lieve the Milwaukee in the event that the administration decides to have that vessel return north and 1t Is deemed necessary to continue the presence of two American vessels in that section.
 The state department today received a cablegram from the American minis ter at Guatemala City, stating that the situation in Salvador is disquieting. That Guatemala and Salvador are send ing troops to the frontier

COMPLAINTS FILED
COMMERCE COMMISSION IS ALMOST
 SWAMPED.
Greatest Number of Petitions Ever Filed in One Day in the Hls- tory of the Conn
 mission.

Washington, June 25.--A deluge of petitions flooded the Interstate Com merce Commission today. In addition to three or four of the usual charac- ter, thirty-seven complaints were filed with the Commission in one class of cases. the greatest number ever pre- sented in one day In the history of the Commission.
 The thirty seven complaints devel- oped from one case recently decided finally by the Supreme Court of the United States. The case grew out of a complaint filed several years ago by the National Yellow Pine Association against a large number of the rall- roar lines, in the southeastern terri tory of the United States. It was al- legged that the railroads were exact ing excessive rates on shipments of yellow pine to various points of the country The case was heard by the Commission very exhaustively and in decision which was handed down by Commissioner Clements, the contention of the complainants upheld, and the railroads were ordered to reduce their rates The railroads carried the case to the courts and 1t finally reached the Supreme Court of the United States.
 In decision handed down a few weeks ago the tribunal held in effect that the decision of the Interstate Com merce Commission was just and reas- onable and 1t must be respected and enforced.
 Following this decision. individuals and corporations engaged in the yell low pine lumber industry in the South and Southeast have instituted com plaints before the Interstate Commerce Commission against practically all of the railroad lines in the southeastern territory demanding reparation for the amounts paid by them to the railroads in excessive freight charges. While thirty-seven of these complaints were filed today, 1t is expected sthat many more will be submitted to the Com mission in q few days. The amounts in reparation in the thirty-seven com plaints vary from a few hundred to many thousands of dollars and aggre- gate $4S6.250.

HOLMES CASE DRAGS
STILL ARGUING APPLICABILITY OF
 THE LAW.
sAIiss Bertha Burch, the Private SecFe- tary to Statistieian Hyde, Was On the Witness stand
 Today

Washington, June 25.-The argu- ment over the applicability of the law under which k. s. Holmes Jr., was indicted in connection with the agrio- ultural department, was suspended in the trial of Holmes today long enough to permit the introduction of the testi- mony of Miss Bertha Burch. who was private secretary to Statistician Hyde during the time that Holmes was as- sistant statistfcian.
 Miss Burch said she had been present when many of the final copies were prepared by Mir. Hyde, but that while he consulted with Holmes, as he did with others of his subordinates. she had not observed that he was influen- eel bv his associate more than by oth- CTS. She was sure he had not been undulY influenced by any one. She was questioned concerning the window shade episode, but said she had never observed any incident of that nature
 When Miss Burch concluded, MT Worthington resumed his argument on the law in the case taking up especial ly the subject of misconduct In office and contending that MT. Holmes of- fence does not come under that head. He declared further that if MT. Holmes had been guilty of official misconduct, he could not have been guilty of con spiracy because the statute under which the indictment was found does not provide for the punishment of the non office holder.
 When Judge Stafford asked MT. Worthington to discuss the charge of defrauding the government. the latter replied that he had supposed that charge had been abandoned. The judge replied that he had not heard any intI- nation to that effect but that suppos- ing the government to occupy the po- sition of trustee of all the people It seemed to him quite pertinent to con slider the subject of fraud. MT. Worth ington argued that as the government had not lost anything through MT. Holiness conduct. 1t had not been de- frauded.
 Replying to the argument of Holmes counsel on law points District Attor- ney Baker entered in long defense of the validity of the indictment in this connection. he took up the charge that while the indictment charged Holmes with the buying and selling of cotton, it had only been shown that he had engaged in gambling in cotton and contended that buying and selling cot ton does not necessarily include de- livery and that therefore the indict- ment had been sustained He argued that Holmes conduct in connection with Peckham, Haas and Van Riper, is sufficient to justify the charge of con spiracy as charged by the govern ment.
 Special Attorney Beach followed MT. Baker in a brief argument in support of the suficiency of law to meet the demands of the Holmes indictment. and MT. Worthington closed for the defense. The court took the law Ques- tion under advisement and adjourned for the day.
