No Meeting Last Night but the Out,
look Hopeful for a Settlement

GOLDFIELD April 17.-There was
no meeting last evening as was eX-
pected and it looks as if both sides
were playing waiting game.
The miners who were expected to
withdraw say that they did not attend
the meeting because they have very
little voice in the proceedings when
they are in the meeting.
The l. w. W. people, who are on
their last legs seemed to fear that
the miners would break away from
them if they allowed meeting.
| that the settlement will not be long
delayed.

A DASTARDLY DEED
Attempts to Kill Citizens and Bur-,
Builhead Hotel at Weiis

Some depraved atom of humanity, |
who is either candidate for the in
sane asylum of the hangman's moose,
attempted dastardly crime last Sat
urday night Shortly after midnight,
while William Drake, James Curd
and Charles Ross were standing at
the bar in the Bullshead Hotel, they
were startled by the sound of two
shots fired in rapid succession. An
investigation showed that some per-
son had stood outside one of the win
dows and fired directly at the men at
the bar One of the shots went
through a pane of glass and lodged
in the large refrigerator four or five
feet from the intended victims. The
other shot did not enter the room,
having found lodgment in partition
in the wall Immediately after the
! shots were fired the men at the bar
ran into the street, but the would-be
assassin had fed. In his flight he
dropped his revolver which was later
found
During the same night, and al
about the same hour, an attempt was
made to burn the Bullshead hotel
One OF the dodgers was awakened by
bright light, which proved to be :
small box filled with trash ant
kindling and saturated with coal oil
This box was placed on the rear stair
way at the hotel and was fiercel,
burning when discovered. No pos
tive clew to the identity of the MAJ
who attempted the deeds has bee
secured.-Wells Herald.

CARSON GIRL IN LONDON

Observations on Some OF the Odd
Things Which You See in Lon
don, Some Of Which Might
Shock Our Sheriff
The editor of the Appeal recently
received a letter from his married .
daughter in London. The following |
are some extracts.
Yesterday we went to see the
great boat race between Oxford and
Cambridge. The course is four miles
long on the Thames and along that
four miles were to be seen one mil
lion people.
I'VE went with friends who knew
the ropes and we got fine seats on
a large raft where about hundred
people found a place to view the
race There were hundreds Of those
RATS moored along the course, for
the use OF Ile SlSlI SeeIS.
Il expected to see a tremendous
amount of enthusiasm over such
contest, but was disappointed. We
only saw the boats for possibly
couple of minutes as they flashed by
with the oresmen straining every
ounce they had in thier bodies to win
and I thought how hard they must
have worked when they did their
stunt to an audience Of million.
Now you can imagine what
noise a million Of live Americans
would have made over such con-
test, but not so here. They seemed
utterly dead and must have come
merely to watch the event and not to
enthuse.
1T takes a good deal to get these
slow going Britishers to enthuse and
this boat race, which is considered
such tremendous event, doesn
seem to stir them much.
Il tell you it seemed tame as far
as noise and enthusiasm goes when
compared to a good old Carson City
horse race.
I'm told, however, they wake W
and get enthusiastic about it the mex
day, which possibly may be so.
"You can't imagine what ugl
dogs ladies lead about the streets
attached to cords. I never saw sue

BIG INSURANCE MAN
IS ARRAICNED
FOR TRIAL
(By Associated Press. J

NDy ASSoclated PreSS.)
New York Dec. 16.-Charged with
perjury in connection with state
ments to the insurance commission
John X. Hegeman. president of the
Metropolitan Life Insurance company
appeared for trial today before JUS
tice Bowling in the criminal branch
OF the supreme court. District At
torney Jerome is conducting the
prosecution of the indicted insur-
ance magnate. Hegeman Is repres-
snted by John G. Milburn, the famo-
us Standard Oil lawyer. who recently
engaged to assist in the defense. A
special panel of talesmen has been
drawn and 1t is thought certain that
the trial will now proceed without
delay.
| President Hegeman has entered a
plea of not guilty to the three indi-
ctments brought against him. He is
a man of striking personality and to-
tally unlike the average type of New
Yorker. He wears his hair long. and
this, with his smooth face and big
slouch hat. gives him the appearance
of the southern colonel of fiction.
The indictments against Hegeman
grew out of testimony he gave before
the grand jury, relating to certain
collateral loans which had been made
by the Metropolitan Life. There are
three indictments, but If he is acquit-
ted on the first the others will likely
be dismissed The perjury indict-
ments are based on reports, alleged
to be false, made to the state super
intehdent of insurance to cover up
year-end transactions of the insur-
ance company. Seven forgery indict-
ments, also relating to year-end tran
sactions, were brought against Hege-
| man but We're dismissed by Justice
| Dowling on the ground that the
grand jury testimony showed no in-
tent to defraud, even conceding that
the entries were false.

BROWNE IS TO HAVE
ANOTHER TRIAL
FOR FRAUD
(By Associated Press.)

(By Associated fTtaS-l
New York. Dec. 16.-Charles c.
Brown, formerly in the customs ser
vice at the port of New York, was
brought to trial before Judge Hough
in the criminal branch of the federal
circuit court today. He Is charged
with conspiracy to defraud the gov
ernment in connection with the Jap
anese silk frauds unearthed about six
years ago. He was indicted by the
grand jury on counts of conspiracy
and fraud. ard was found guilty of
the former charge in the circuit court
but skipped his bail of $4,000 and
fed to Montreal. He was arrested
in the Canadian city and after sew
eral hearings the Canadian authori-
tives surrendered the fugitive with
the understanding that Browne was
to be tried under the fraud indict-
ment. Instead, Browne was taken
directly to Sing Sing prison, but his
attorneys later secured his release
on a writ of habeas corpus. Judge
Hough decided that the federal au-
thorities had erred in putting Browne
in prison. and he was released on
$4,000 bail, pending his trial on the
fraud Indictment, which begins to-
day. w. Wickman Smith, the spec
ial attorney general, in the silk fraud
cases, is prosecuting the case, while
Browne is represented by ex--Judge
William NJ. Olcott.

POPE CREATES
new CARDINALS
Especial to The Daily sentinel)

Especial to The Daily SentineL)
Rome, Dec. 16-Three Lew cardi-
nails were created by the pope at a
secret consistory in the Vatican to-
day. They are Monsignor Gasparri,
secretary of the congregation of ex-
traordinary ecclesiastical affairs
Monsignor Luccon. archbishop of
Rheims. and Monsignor Andriep,
archbishop of Marseilles.
Monsignor Kennedy, the rector of
the American college. was created
titular bishop of AdriaLapolis. a high
honor which has never before been
conferred upon rector, the appoin-
tment being officially announced at
today's consistory.
Some time ago it was thought that
Archbishop Ireland would be made a
| cardinal at this consistory, but this
hope of American Catholics must a
gain be deferred. The archbishop's
friends in the sacred college are very
active in his behalf. however, and it
Is thought to be only a matter of a
year or two before the distinguished
American prelate will be given a red
hat. 1t is said that the pope is al
ready convinced that Archbishop Ire
lard is deserving of the honor, but,
although he can choose whomsoever
he thinks best without any interfer-
ence, the congregations on which the
prelates depend or have depended
are always consulted. There is prob
ably some opposition to Archbishop
Ireland in this quarter.
