Appeal to Roosevelt.

CHICAGO, Aug. 27.-Chicago
business men want President Roose-
welt to intervene and to bring an end
to the telegraphers' strike. Petitions
to this effect were being circulated
today.
Losses to Chicago's commercial
world said to amount to hundreds of
thousands of dollars form the basis
of the appeal to the nations execu-
tive.
One petition was set in circulation
in South Water street among the
commission merchants and another
was sent into Lasele street to receive
the signatures of board of trade men.
The Laselle street petition was
launched with the formal sanction of
the board of directors, whose officers
recently addressed a letter to Presi-
dent Roosevelt, asking that he inter-
cede to stop the strike.
No reply to President Sager's let
ter has been received from Oyster
Bay.
The South Water street plea was
couched in language which contra
diets statements issued from time tc
time from the main offices of both
the Western Union and Postal Tele-
graph companies, declaring the strike
is no longer a detriment to the ser
vice furnished business houses and
to the public generally

NAN PATTERSON IN
ANOTHER M|X.UP

NEW YORK, Aug. 29.-The noto-
rious Nan Patterson, also known as
Mrs. Leon MaryinX, has just left
Pittsburg at the request of friends of
"a very wealthy steel man who be-
came infatuated with her. Miss Pat
terson, it is alleged, threatened his
life one night when she was intoXi-
Gated and vowed she would carry out
her threat She was sent to Wash
ington, ID. G., where she is supposed
to be. In the meantime the wealthy
steel man, who has Offices in the
F'rick building here, is very i'll as the
result of the excitement.
The incident occurred at a road
house a few miles from McKeesport,
where the steel man has been keep
ing Miss Patterson in style with her
own auto and everything else she
wanted. His friends employed detec-
tives to break up the affair when they
found Miss Patterson drinking heavi-
ly and talking wildly. One night she
quarreled with her protector and in
the hearing of many threatened to
drive her hatpin through his heart.
1t is understood she has promised not
to return here.
Since her escapade at different
Pittsburg hotels, Miss Patterson has
been living at different roadhouses
within easy auto ride of Pittsburg.

Fake M ylption

GOLDFIELD, Aug 29.-After Il
session that lasted until nearly
o'clock this morning the miners un-
ion adjourned without taking any
action on the change-room question.
hasty action of the union last Friday
in rejecting the agreement entered
into by its committee and the Consol-
idated officials would be reconsidered
and that the demand for jurisdiction
over employe in and about the mines
would be withdrawn as untenabe
and in violation of the agreement en-
tered into between the Mineowners'
association and the Western Fedora
ton of Miners last April. But after
discussing the matter nearly all
night, the union took no action, the
secretary announcing that the next
move must be made by the Consoli-
dated. General Manager j. w. Finch
of tne Goldfield Consolidated Mines
company says significantly that the
next move must come from the min
ers and come quickly. The last pro-
position submitted to the miners by
the Consolidated is absolutely final,
he said today, and he was very much
in earnest. Unless the miners recede
from their position it is probable that
every mine in the district will be
drawn into the controversy and while
it is stil the general belief that the
differences will be adjusted. there is
danger of another tie-up of all the
mines in the district.

DISH OF ICE CREAM
CAUSED IT ALL

NEW YORK, Aug, pa petty
quarrel over Il plate of ice cream last
evening precipitated riot at Wit

which nearly 5000 men We're in
volved and in which $50 were hurt.
or these IA were seriously injured.
Witzel received a fractured skull and
may die. 1t took reserves from six
stations to cope with the outbreak,
1t was a turbulent windup TO day
of merry-making by the Jefferson
Tammany club of the Bronx, which
had come to the grove in the morn
ing.
According to the police, one of the
picnickers, Frank Jordan, consumed
his ice cream rapidly and ordered
another plate. 1t did not come fast
enough. The police say Jordan
hurled a pitcher. which struck Wit
gel on the back of the head, fractur-
ing his skull.
Immediately there was an uproar
The little army of cooks, walters and
attendants, seeing their employer in
jured, rushed on Jordan.
Several hundred of the picnickers
sprang from their chairs and. seizing
the first weapons that came to their
hands, they belabored every man
they thought was an employee Jor-
dan was rescued, but he was uncon-
scious when taken out.

General Sentiment In GOIdfieId Is
That a Fight 10 Finish Will
Be lnausurated.
MINERS DELIVER ULT|MATUM
Unless Company Accepts Proposals
Avenue Closed to Further
Negotiations.

GOLDFIELD, Aug. 29.-The gem
eral sentiment here is that fight
to finish for the right to work the
mines of this camp on an open shop
basis will soon be inaugurated. The
miners have delivered what they
claim to be their ultimatum, in which
they insist that every person employ
ed around the mines, with the ex-
ception of the managers and superin-
tendents, belong to the union. In
that ultimatum the question of
change-room was ignored, and the
committee was instructed not to re-
port again unul it reported the ac-
ceptance of the ultimatum. That
c.osed the avenue to further negotia-
tions and unless the company accepts
the proposal there appears to be no
chance of resuming the discussion of
possible plan of settlement The
company insists on its right to safe
guard its property from any depre-
dation, and will insist on that right
to the last ditch Neither side shows
the least weakening of front, and
every hour the belief that the final
SHOW down" is about to come, grows

ZURICH SUES CRUMP
FOR CRIMINAL LIBEL
COMPLAINT SWORN TO YESTER-
DAY BEFORE ACTING JUDGE
BUSH.
CRuMps STATEMENT IS THE BASIS
Prisoners Said to Have Filed Afiida-
Wits Containing Allegations Against
Zurich and Eddy.

The latest proceedings in the mix
up between certain local legal men is
a suit filed yesterday by Attorney Ju-
rich in which he accuses Attorney S.
D. Crump of criminal libel.
The prosecuting witness alleges
that Attorney Crump committed libel
in issuing the statement that he filed
with Judge Bush during the diamond
case trial. The statement referred
to was the one published Thursday
morning in the News.
Papers were shown to a News man
yesterday morning said to be affida-
Wits of T. ]. Costello and James
Quarles, prisoners in the county Jail,
in which it was stated that Attorney
Zurich had informed them that if
they would engage him he would be
able to liberate them through his re-
lations with District Attorney Eddy.
Mr.. Zurich states that he was AS
sistant District Attorney at the time
Quarles was arrested for shooting at
his wife and that he prosecuted him,
Mr.. Eddy being out of town. He also
states that he made no such offer
to the prisoner. In regard to the Cos
tello affidavit he says Mr.. Costello
had requested him to act as his coun-
sci but that he refused to do so be-
cause Attorney Schwayder was also
engaged as Costello's attorney.
These affidavits will be used, it is
said, if disbarment proceedings are
brought against District Attorney Ed
dy and Attorney Zurich.
The complaint in the criminal libel
case reads as follows:
'In the Justices court of the First
Township, County of White Pine,
State of Nevada.
''The State of Nevada, plaintiff, VS..
S. d. Crump, defendant.
PERSONALLY appeared before me
this goth day of August, A. ID. 1907,
Anthony Jurich of Ely in the county
of White Pine, state of Nevada, who,
first being duly sworn, complains and
says: That within his knowledge, in
formation and belief S. d. Crump of
Ely, White Pine county Nevada, on
or about the 27th day of August, A.
d., 1907, and before the filing of this
complaint at Ely in the said county
of White Pine, state of Nevada, did
maliciously print and publish an ar
tice about the said Anthony Zurich,
with the intention of impeaching the
honesty, integrity and reputation of
said Anthony Jurich with the inten-
tion of exposing him to public ha-
tired, and contempt, said article being
as follows:
(Here follows a copy of Crump's S
statement as printed in Thursdays s
News.)
"All of which is contrary to the
form, force and effect of the statute
in such cases made and provided and
against the peace and dignity of the
state of Nevada.
Said complainant therefore de-
mands a warrant for the arrest OF
the said S. D. Crump and that he
may be dealt with according to law.

DEVELOPMENTS IN
TELEGRAPH STRIKE
PRESIDENT SMALL Is IN NEW
YORK AND APPEARS OrTT-
MYSTIC OF OUTCOME.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S.-From to-
days developments in the telegraph
strike it is very likely that the tele-
graphers in the brokers offices in the
within few days and the strike will
be extended to that branch of the tel
egraph business, which thus far has
not been badly affected.
A dispatch was received by Presi-
dent Small of the union from broker
operators in the south and west
which has altered the situation con-
siderably. The kilograms complained
that the quotations from New York,
Chicago and New Orleans were being
sent by non-union operators, over
non-union wires, and urging that ev-
cry broker telegrapher in the coun-
try be called out. A meeting has
been called for tomorrow of this class
of operators and the situation will be
discussed. President Small said to-
day that some decisive action would
surely be taken.
President Small announced today
that he was thoroughly in touch with
the general strike situation, and the
companies were weakening. OF the
Western Union surplus of $13,0O0,-
600, he said that at least $4,000, 300
had already been expended in the
fighting, and If that lasts another two
weeks the company will not be able
to pay the guaranteed dividends on
acquired properties.
1t was announced after the regular
J,; Of ct,ril-
evening that $1,U00,000 of the 81
900, 900 fund raised by the strikers
would be devoted to bringing about
government ownership of the tele-
graph companies.

NELSON MORRIS DIES
At HIS CHICAGO HOME
MILLIONAIRE PACKER LEFT \
FORTUNE OF $4O,OOO.O0O
TO $50, 100000.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2S.-Nelson Nor
ris died this morning at $40 O'Clock
The end was peaceful. For hours he
had slept Practically he was the
richest of Illinois men.
Mr. Morris had been i'll a long
time. He had travelled abroad in the
hope of finding health. He had
drunk the waters of the worlds S fa-
nous Spas, had consulted the most
scientific physicians, had been nursed
skilfully and then had come home to
die For half decade he had known
of his impending DOOM First his
kidneys became affected. Then his
heart lost its strength.
All the members of his family were
around the bedside when the end
came. They had remained near all
night. DR.. Arthur b. Edwards, the
attending physician, had given up
hope at midnight, but he stood by the
side of the packer and did not re-
linquish his vigil.
Mr.. Morris left a fortune variousiy
estimated at between $40,000,000
and $60,000,000. At the stock yards
today some who were well acquaint-
ed with Mr.. Morris hazarded a guess
that it would be as high at $10O,000,-
600. 1t is said that his will contains
great sums for charity. Not long
ago he gave bounteously for the pres
ervation of one of Shakespeare S fa-
vorite spots at tratford-on-AvOn.
His widow is to be left one-third
the wealth and the family home. The
balance of the estate is to be divided
equally among his four children, eX-
cept that part which has been re-
served for charity, for hospitals and
friends.

TOXIC, Aug. 29.-Reports from
the inundated districts continue to
come in, bringing with them the sad
dest pictures of houses washed away

young. One village in the Yamana-
shi prefecture was buried under mud
and at least 500 were drowned in

The flood also washed away some
of the connecting pipes of the Yoko-
