LAUGHS At THE SUIT.
George Gould Discusses Action of At

New Orleans, Jan. 1O.-George ].
Gould, when shown the Associated
Press dispatch from st. Louis relative
to the suit filed against the Gould in
terests in Missouri by Attorney Gen
eral Hadley of that state, laughed and
smilingly remarked:
About the only thing ! can see is
the fact that Mr.. Hadley failed to In
clude international and Great North
ern and the Texas and Pacific rail-
ways. He ought to have known these
were Gould interests also.
Well" he continued, Mr.. Hadley
may be right. He lives in Missouri,
the state where people have to be
shown. He will find that nearly all
the stock owned by the Pacific Ex-
press company and the coal mines
mentioned are not Gould interests"
He refused further to discuss the
suit and retired to confer with his
business associates.

Incoming steamers which passed over

now held out is that the Ponce is
drifting about with disabled machin-

picked up by some steamer and is be-
Ing slowly towed to port. Some color

Assassinated at
Baker City, Oregon

Baker City, Oregon, Oct. AT
10:45 o'clock Monday night ex-Sheriff
Harvey X. Brown was blown almost
to pieces by heavy charge of dyna-
mite as he entered the gate at his home
in this city. His left limb was blown
off close to his body. He was taken to
the hospital, where his wounds were
dressed and everything done to relieve
his suffering.
Mr.. Brown had just returned from
Stiles gulch, where he has mining pro-
perty, and was returning home from
downtown, when the explosion occur
red. As he entered the gate there was
loud report, an when help arrived he
was found lying on the sidewalk in a
mangled condition. The gate, the
large gateposts and part of the fence
was blown into splinters by the heavy
discharge of dynamite Every window
in his home was broken and some win
dows across the street.
The report could be heard all over
town, and attracted large crowd to
the scene of the tragedy. The perpe-
traitors of the dastardly deed are not
known, and have left no trace except
wire which extended from the gate
about 90 feet north along the fence and
then west about 30 feet in the middle
of the road. 1t is supposed that the
men at the end of the wire watched
flor him, and as he entered the gate
set off the dynamite
1t is thought that Mr.. Brown bal
some idea of the identity of the mer
who exploded the bomb. for he wat
heard to say before he lapsed into I'm
consciousness:
'They have laid for me and they go

REIGN OF Mr.. sruees PASSES.
Entrance of Eastern Roads Into
Freight Bureau Reduces ALL
Powerful Influence.

Chicago, H., Sept. SO.-With the
advent of eastern railroads into the
transcontinental freight bureau,
there disappears from the railway
field one of the most powerful die
tatorships in railway history. With
eastern roads having an equal voice
in making transcontinental freight
rates, J. c. Stubs is no longer auto
crat of the traffic world. Until the
recent admission of eastern roads
into the councils of the freight bu-
reau the Hartman lines dictated
what all transcontinental rates
should be. Stubs, as general traf-
fc dictator of the Hartman lines,
therefore held a position which was
unique and all powerful. The entry
of eastern roads into the reckoning
is a result OF the new law which
makes them responsible for all rates
in which they concur and they must
concur in a rate before it can be
used over their lines.

PRESIDENT SEES PERIL.
Certain Countries Too Persistent in
Dumping Undesirables Here.

GuUlDlHJ OHGGolIGDl@o ft(AIs
With the Japanese question upper
most in their minds, the president and
his cabinet have been discussing
means for limiting immigration. More
than a million persons come to this
country every year from the old
world and if all of them were of the
right sort all would be welcome for
there is a dearth of white men to do
the worlds work. but it is felt there
is trouble for this government in 'un-
desirable classes" from Europe, Asia
and Africa. How shall these undesir-
ables be kept out?
The president and his cabinet min
listers have had some discussion Of the
possibility of limiting the number of
immigrants that would be received in
one year from each country. Those
countries which are sending desirable
immigrants might be permitted to
send as many as they wish to spare.
Countries which send to the United
States criminals and paupers, incOm-
petents and ''mOllycoddles" of various
degrees might be informed that they
must find other dumping grounds for
such undesirables. Perhaps congress
might have to pass special legislation
tc encompass this end and possibly
the suggestion that certain countries
were to be Disseminated against
would prompt them to keep their I'M
desirables at home without further
action
