conferred with Attorneys Murphy
and Miller and subsequently gave
Miller $500.
Meyer denied that he had ever dis
cussed any kind Of criminal act with
Orchard or any one else or that he
had ever given him a cent except for
expenses on the trip Orchard made
to Ouray as body guard for him. He
said he had no personal feeling of
hostility for Stennenberg and there
We're no circumstances that would
make him desire the life Of john Ne
willie, whom Orchard testified that
Meyer wanted to kill. Meyer said
Neville came to him after his arrest
for alleged completely in the Independ
ence station affair and asked that the
federation give him 5000 to reim-
burse him for the expense he had In
Cured in clearing himself, but this
request was refused.
Meyer denied that he participated
in the conference in Pettibone's back
yard where Orchard said he. Hay
wood and Pettibone had discussed
various acts of violence, denied
knowledge of the subsequent meeting
at federation Headquarters whore Or
hostility for Stuennenberg and there
Neville executions were planned, and
denied practically every material
statement in all of Orchards testi-
mony. Meyer explained that Or

Most Of the time was AIKEN up with
recital Of the witness connection with
the Federation of Miners. He told a
detailed story of the arrest at Ouray
and his transfer to Telluride where
the military refused to recognize the
processes of the court set in motion
to effect his release. He was arrested
on the pretext that he had desecrated
the flag by the Issuance of a fedora
ton hand-bill denouncing the method
OF the state officials. mine owners and
militia on which an emblem OF the
American flag was reproduced. A
copy of this handful was introduced
and then the witness told of various
efforts to secure his release and Of.
his subsequent arrest on a charge
that he was implicated in the Vindica-
tor outrage.

the relations of counsel during the
day. The defense wanted to prove all
the circumstances under which Meyer
and his associates were secretly ar

Mail Contracts Pie for Railroads.

The amount paid the railroads
for carrying the mails last year was
about forty-hve million dollars, OF
which FIVE and one half millions
was for rental Of postal cars
If the roads received no more for
carrying the mails than theylreceive
for carrying the same matter for the
express companies, the postal de-
partment would save twenty-five
millions of the foity-fve it now
pays for the service.
Prof. H. c. Adams, the statisti-
clan for the Interstate Commerce
Commission shows that the receipts
for express between New York and
Boston would average fifty cents
per hundred, thirty-eight cents for
first class freight as against eighty
nine cents from the mails; New
York to Chicago, a dollar and a
quarter express, seventy-fve cents
freis ht and three dollars and fifty.
six cents mail; New York to San
Francisco, six dollars and seventy
cents express, three dollars freis h,
and thirteen dollars and twent-eigh ht
cents mail; Atlanta to Savannah,
81 cents express, 81 cent freight
and s.. I6 mail. Numerous other
cases are cited which also indie ate
that railways receive for express
fifty to a hundred per cent more
than for first class freight and FOR
MAIL 100 to 900 per cent mere than
for express.
The express companies carry
magazines and newspapers five
hundred miles for one cent pound
and the the railroads S share of this
amount is less than one sixth ol
the average rate paid for mail.
There is no reason why the gov.
ernment should pay rental for post.
al cars. The express do not fo,
express cars. The fvo and a hall
millions paid in rentals is a dona
ton pure and Simple.
Comparison of rates for mail and
express taken from railroad author
ities leads the impartial investiga.
tor to conclude that "the railway.
are receiving from the government
from two to four times as much a.
they get from the express com.
panies equal hanlage, more thar
twice what they get for carrying
Communication passengers and ex
CESS baggage equal weights ane
distances two to FIVE times thei
charges for first class freight ant
sixteen times what they get for th'
mass of common freight.
It is clear that the total railway
mail pay should not exceed $2o,-
900, 900 per year at the out side.

Pratt'S Food.

The extraordinary demand for a
strong and highly concentrated stock
food by consumers on the Pacific slope
has caused us to offer Pratt's Animal
Regulator in the place of Pratt's Food
for Horses and cattle-the bulky kind
Pratt's Animal Regulator is put up
under precisely the same formula as
Pratt's Food for Horses and Cattle,
but the filler is reduced and the medic
inal ingredients increased to such All
extent that it is four times stronger
than Pratt's Food for Horses and Cat
tie, and only t the quantity is given.
This results in Pratt's Animal Regula-
tor being 50 per cent cheaper to feed
than Pratt's Food, and accounts for
it~ great popularity and sale thruout
the Pacific slope. For sale by ]. g.
