STRIKE BREAKERS ON
WAY TO DENVER
(By the Associated Press. J

DENVER, Aug. 5.-Officials of the
Colorado & Southern Railway COM
pany said today that IS strike-break
ers were on the way to Denver from
different points to take the places Of
switchmen, yardmen, makemen and
others of the Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen, who are on strike to en-
force the demands of switchmen and
yardmen for an increase in wages OF
two cents an hour. This is the prin-
cipal development in the strike. One
freight train was sent out of the
yards today manned by brakemen
who took the places of strikers and
they were furnished the protection
of deputy sheriff from this city.
Work in the local yards continued as
in the past week or more. with non
unionists. There was a small wreck
of freight cars in the yards, which for
time was attributed to strikers, but
investigation by railroad officials
themselves disclosed the cause to be
a defective rail. The strike has prac-
tically tied up freight traffic over the
road and although the territory be-
tween Denver and Pueblo is not af-
fected by reason of the joint track
agreement between the Colorado
Southern and the Santa Fe roads, the
southern division of the former road
is operating no freight trains and this
will cause at least seven of the local
non-union crews to be laid off tomor-
row, it is reliably reported. Lack OF
business in the local yards makes
1t considerable easier for the road to
handle the situation here than before
the general strike was called Satur-
day

lature BE Called to Enforce
State Laws.
(By the Associated Press. }

BIRMINGHAM. Ala, Aug. 5.-NO
official statement was issued tonight
of the conclusions reached at the con-
ference today between Governor Com
er, Attorney General CARRIER, and the
assistant counsel employed by the
state administration to assist I'm en-
forcing the laws affecting railroads
as to the next steps In the case
against the Southern Railway. The
governor and the attorney general
left for Montgomery late this even
ing and lengthy session was held
by the special counsel tonight at
which the legal phases of the ques-
tions were gone over. 1t Is expected
that they will make a report to the
governor tomorrow.
While the governor would make
no statement his advisers let 1t he
known that he is determined to en-
force the state laws at any cost. They
said that il necessary an extra ses-
sion of the legislature would be call
ed or troops would be called out to
see that the states commands are
obeyed. The views that the Southern
Railway, by defying the state law by
the removal of case to the federal
court, and thereby having its char
ter revoked by the secretary of state.
has placed itself in position to be
dealt with as an outlaw or mob would
be dealt with.
1t is considered more than likely
that wholesale arrests will follow in
the next few days of officials and en-
ployes of the Southern Railway, who
continue to operate the various lines
in spite of the fact that they are do
ing SO without charter from the
state.

RICHARD MANSFIELD
CONTINUES VERY ILL
BREAKDOWN OF THE FAMOUS
ACTOR MAY AFFECT HIS
STAGE CAREER.
(By the Associated Press. }

AMPERSAND, Lake Saranac. Aug.
5.-The continued Illness of Richard
Mansfield, the actor, since his return
from Europe, has aroused some ap-
prehension as to the effect on his
stage career. Mr.. Mansfield, accom-
panied by his wife, his brother, Felix
Mansfield, maid, valet and a sec
retary, arrived here by special train
from Montreal last Sunday night and
are occupying cottage, where Mr..
Mansfield has his meals served. He
refuses absolutely to see any one, but
his brother speaking for him, said:
'Mr. Mansfield, as Is well known,
suffered a severe nervous breakdown,
due without doubt to Overwork. He
had taken practically no vacation for
several years. The voyage to Eng
land in the latter part of May, rather
upset him. He rested quietly at this
country place in Sussex for nearly
two months, living the quiet life of
a country gentleman, but the weather
was foggy, cold and rainy, and it was
thought best to return to this coun-
try. He decided to come to the Adj
rondacks for a rest of week or two,
while his summer residence at New
London, Conn. is being put in readi-
ness for his occupancy. Mr.. Mans
field has been advised to take COM
plete rest and to free his mind entire
ly from business cares and profess
sional matters.
He sees nobody but the members
of his family. He is convalescing
slowly but satisfactorily, and we be-
lieve 1t is just a question of time
when he shall regain his old-time
strength and vigOr."
Asked as to his brothers plans for
the future, Mr.. Felix Mansfield con-
tinued
"If he has any plans for the future
he is keeping them to himself. Per-
sonally, think he has but one plan,
and that is to regain his health at the
earliest possible time"
At the time when Felix Mansfield
was giving this hopeful view of his
brothers condition, he was endeav-
oring to summon physicians from
Montreal and other places to examine
his brother. 1t is known that Mr..
Mansfield passed several bad nights.
followed by some improvement.
There is good reason to believe that
his condition is more serious than his
family are willing to admit. DR.. New
ton of this place was called In and
on Thursday DR.. Lemeux of Montreal
arrived and visited the patient.
Neither physician, however, would
discuss the case. 1t is known that
following Mr.. Mansfield's nervous
prostration he has suffered great pain
from sciatic rheumatism and recent
ly complained of severe pains caused
probably by pleurisy. He has lost
flesh, his face is pale and his eyes
show the severe ordeal he has been
undergoing A trained nurse Is now
in attendance upon him, having been
called from New York on Thursday.
For the last few days Mr. Mansfield
has taken daily drives in an easy ve-
hicle.

INSANE MOTHER KILLS
HER TWO CHILDREN
ASKS NETGHBOR IN TO HELP
DRESS THEM AFTER CHOKING
THEM TO DEATH.
(By the Associated Press.)

BALTIMORE, Md, Aug. 5.-The
atrocious murder of her two daugh-
ters by an insane mother thrilled
northeastern Baltimore today. Mad
ness, which has twice caused her to
be confined in an asylum, this morn
ing again took possession of Mrs.
Christine Nenadal, aged 26 years, the
wife of Joseph Nenadal, a wood work
er employed in a wagon factory. With
the cunning of mind deranged, she
laid her plans to murder her llttle
ones, which she believes has done her
harm. Leaving her little daughter
Mary, aged between and years,
playing in the street, she put the
Younger of her children, Yarsolva,
year and three months old baby, in
it's carriage and took it to nearby
park. Just what happened there Is
not known. When the mother re-
turned the little one in the carriage
was covered with leaves and small
branches, but neighbor noticed that
the mother was strangely pale. The
mother took both children into the
house and carefully closed all the
doors and windows. A little later
she went for a friend, Mrs. Victoria
Vala, and asked her to come and aid
in dressing the children. Returning,
the two women entered the dining
room of the Nenadal home, and
there, lying on the table, Mrs. Vala
was Mortified to find the naked bodies
of the two children, both of whom
had been strangled to death by their
mother. Later, when the police were
summoned, the mother fondled the
little bodies and gave them up only
when forced to do so. Her most con-
Germ seems to be lest the children be
awakened. She repeatedly asks to
have them brought to her so she may
see them slumber. At the police sta
ton Mrs. Nenadal constantly watch
es for the babies.

EVERY EFFORT TO REACH POLE
(By the Associated Press. }

PORTLAND, Maine, Aug. Com
mander Robert e. Peary left here to-
day for New York, whence he will
sail in a few days on an expedition
to the North Pole Commander Peary
said tcjay:
From New York | shall &C Greet
to Sydney, c. b., where | shall coal
and there will be no stops on The way,
as | have no time to lose.
My crew this time will be prac-
tically the same as on my last trip.
Captain Robert Bartlett is to COM
mand the Roosevelt. / am going pre-
pared to make every effort to reach
the pole. If | do not succeed next
summer, | shall stay over year. If
| do not succeed then | shall stay
one year longer. l am taking along
everything for a thre years trip"
Commander Peary, giving some de-
tails of his plans, said:
John Murphy, my old boatswain,
is to be with me again. | am to have
Wardwell, my old chief engineer;
Rosseg Marvin of Bucksport, is to be
my assistant, and he will be the only
Maine member of the party. | am
to have a new surgeon. There are
several applications for the position,
but as yet no one has been chosen
| will settle that when I get to New
York.
Asked if he expected to reach the
pole this time, Peary said:
"A man who has had an experience
in the north knows that to say he
will do a certain thing up there is
madness. I have learned many les
sons from other trips, and especially
from my last one, and ! shall profit
by all this experience. Whether
shall find the North Pole or not, is a
question which will not be answered
until I have either reached it or
failed"
Asked if he had ample funds for
carrying out the expedition, Com
mander Peary replied:
81 will say one thing, and that is
that the delays in repairing the boil
ers of the Roosevelt have been and
are now worrying me a great deal
more than the money with which to
finance the expedition"
Commander Peary appeared today
to be in rugged health and was full
of enthusiasm for the trip.
