SO. PACIFIC
INCREASE
PROFIT

New York, July SIT is gener-
ally believed in the financial distric;
that when the Southern Pacific di-
rectors meet tomorrow they will
place the common stock on a G per
cent annual dividend, basis. as
against the > per cent now paid.
Meetings of both the Union Pacific
and southern Pacific directors were
held a week ago, but action on the
matter of dividends was postponed
until tomorrow. Wall street is dis
posed to critieise this delay on the
ground that it resembles too closely
the famous holding back in August
of last year of Hartman dividend
news, while important stock market
operations were carried on. When
the increased dividends were finally
made public Union Pacific jumped 80
points, and Southern Pacific also
rose in a sensational manner. 1t
was persistently alleged in some
quarters that the news had been held
back in order to let the insiders
accumulate stock. 1t has been re-
ported that the Southern Pacific div
idend rate might be increased to Z
per cent, but II. H. Hartman is
quoted as saying that per cent
would be enough for the stoekhold-
ers

National attention was attracted
to his knowledge of monetary mat
ters when he wrote reply to
Coins Financial School" which he
called Coin at School in Finance" "
He went into the treasury depart
ment with only an elementary knowl-
edge of finance. At once he made a
close study of the Intricate problems
confronting him as director of the
mint, and of the general questions OF
upon as an authority.
Since assuming his position in
Washington Mr.. Roberts has receiv-
ed many fattering offers from finan-
cial institutions all over the country,
but declined them all until the pres
idency Of the Commercial National
bank, succeeding the late James E.
Eckels, was rendered.
Mr.. Roberts has been infatuated
with his work as director of the mint
and has done much to reorganize and
improve that bureau. During his
incumbency many new methods have
been introduced, and the antiquated
machinery formerly in use has been
replaced by modern inventions. some
of them suggested by the experienced
employees. From the smelling of
metals to the fininshing touches on
the coins the mints OF the country
have in late years been revolutions
lied. One of the notable reforms in
troduced was an automatic weighing
machine, which condemns short and
heavy weight coins and passes only
those OF exactly the correct weight.

derers gathered in the Mitchell tent,
and remained silently about, watch
ing her last moments, and doing eV-
erything to make them comfortable.
Although the child was uncon-
scious she seemed to realize that she
was once more among her family and
friends. The thought seemed to
cheer her sad countenance, and a
faint smile played about her worn
and haggard face.
Nourishment in small quantities
was given her. and the fond parents
held out the hope until the last that
she might be revived and spared to
them. Gradually she grew weaker
and weaker. Her eyes closed and
her breathing was slow and came
with an effort. The members of the
family knelt beside her little bed, and
the devoted mother murmured a lit
tie prayer, as the child's spirit pass
ed out. The deepest reverence mark
ed the actions of the other gypsy
men and women while in the pres
ence of the dead body of the girl
who had been pet in the band. a
profound silence prevailed while the
corpse lay waiting for burial. As is
customary among the people of their
]
we're Immediately made. The body
was dressed in white; carefully
placed in its little white casket ready
to be borne to the cemetery. The
family of the child followed the re-
mains to the last resting place. There
at the cemetery. simple but impress
i've funeral services were held. The
little coffin was slowly lowered into
the grave to be covered over with
earth, and the handful of mourners
drove away despondently. This
morning they will resume their
journey eastward and southwark.
The story of how the little girl re-
ceived the bullet wound in her head
is known to nearly all Leadville peo-
pie 1t was while preparing for a
! celebration of the Fourth of July at
Fruita. when the girl was behind a
| tree in the woods where the gypsy
band was camping that a man in the
party discharged a rifle. The bullet
glanced from tree and struck her
on the head. Medical attention was
given, and thinking she would soon
recover the parents moved on. When
/ they arrived in Leadyille her condi-
/ tion had grown so serious that her
removal to the hospital was neces-
STATED.

The agent of the Gerry society
stated in his complaint that he had
found the four children in filthy
rooms, with no one to care for them.
When the youngsters appeared before
Justice Wyatt they were found to be
clean, we'll cared for and apparently
happy. The father was found to be
hard-working man, regularly en-
ployed, and he protested vigorously
and earnestly at what he termed the
abduction" of his children. Numer-
Gus witnesses testified that the chill
dren were well taken care of and
that the complaint of the Gerry agent
was baseless. Murphy said that his
wife died last September, leaving
nine children. Five of them, as well
as the father, are working. but the
four younger ones had to be left at
home, and it was for this reason that
they were seized by the Gerry agents.
Investigators declare that the Jordan
apartments are neat, clean and well
furnished.
Charges of cruelty and abuse have
been made by dozens of youngsters
in the care of the Gerry society and
these will be fully investigated by
the authorities.

Sentinel readers will recall
. that on July 4th, a little nine
|. year-old girl. Anna Mitchell, a
| member of a band of wander
i ing gypsies. was accidentally
. shot in the head by another
| member of the party in the
camp near Fruita. The little
|. one seemed to grow better and
. after a few days stay in Fruita
. the nomads, with the little
girl who was very popular
. with all members of the band,
. again took up their reverend
. ing journey. They reached
. Leadyille about two weeks ago
. and it was found by some
. Leadville people that the little
. child was in a dangerous con-
. dition and they forced the gyp-
. sizes to allow her to be taken
. to a hospital. The gypsies, al
. though anxious TO do all they
. could to save the little life,
. objected to her being taken to
. the hospital, not understand
. ing in their ignorance that she
she would be better there. and
. even after the child was in the
. hospital they made every -f-
. fort to have her back to their
. camp and finally succeeded
. after the physicians saw there
. was no hope for her. Death
. claimed the child Monday
/ morning.

1t was indeed a sad case and the
suffering of the child and the sincere
sorrow of her people attracted much
sympathy and attention in Leadville.
The child was exceedingly pretty.

Herald of Leadville says:
Anna Mitchell, the 9-year-old gyp-
sy girl, who has been at st. Mary's
hospital for the past five days suf-
fering from a bullet wound in her
head died at the gypsy camp near
the city yesterday morning, and was
buried in Evergreen cemetery yes
terday afternoon. When It syas seen
that the child was doomed to die the
physicians allowed the parents to re-
move her from the hospital, n few
hours before the end came. Her life
could not have been long prolonged
even had she been allowed to remain
at the hospital.

Meet Tomorrow:
Strike Unlikely

A S. Grove. president Of the Wash
inRton local OF the Commercial TeleE-
raphers' Union, has called a special
meeting for 8 o'clock tomorrow after
noon. He says he does not anticipate
any orders for a sympathetic strike IN
Washington, and that there will GER
tainIy be none unless so ordered by
national headquarters.
Commissioner Nell, OF the Department
of Commerce and Labor. was seen to-
day in regard 10 the telegraph strike
situation, and IN reply to a question as
TO whether Il IS possible that he will
60 TO Chicago IN case the situation be-
comes more serious, said:
There is no telling what an hour

ever, II things remain like they are al
present I SEQ no need to take any part

Commissioner Nell said that he had
received no communication from tbs
President since the strike was called in
Chicago.
"Our office is running just as smoothly
as though nothing was happening, and
if I had not seen the dispatches In the

Federal
Control
Desired

CHICAGO. Aug. 1O.-Secretary RUS
sell, OF the Commercial TeIegraphers.
Is now IN conference with the attorneys
Of the union. preparing Il is said, TO
ask the Federal Government 10 seize
the properties Of the Western Union and
Postal Telegraph Companies. providing
the strike continues to spread unuer
the terms Of the Federal statute giving
the Government power 10 take over the
properties Of the telegraph companies
as a matter Of public eNpediency when
the companies are unable TO operate
them.
Under the Federal statute. the strlk-
ors' lawyers say the Government has
authority 70 seize the lines. It provides
that the United States for postal, mill
tary, or other purposes may purchase
all telegraph lines, property, and effects
Of any or all companies under the pro-
Visions Of the act Of July ~ 1856.
The procedure prescribed is the taking
OF immediate possession and operation
by the Government, the price TO be paid
for the properties to be determined later
by nve appraisers, two Of whom shall
be selected by the Government, two BY
the company. and the fifth by the four
previously selected.
The law, which the unions declare gave
the Government complete jurisdiction
over the situation, was an amendment
Of the act Of August S. 1888. II provides
that II any telegraph company shall
fail In whole or part to operate its
lines and transmit messages for the
public, then any person, company, cor
pOTation, or connecting telegraph conf
puny may apply for relief 70 the Inter
state Commerce Commission, which
shall investigate the complaint, and
upon conviction of 1t, enforce the law
through the courts Of the United
States
General Secretary Russell says the
Government Will be appealed TO exercise
its full powers. Application will be made
10 the Federal courts as soon as the
strike extends to New York and relay
| points between there and the West
