TROOPS TO QUIT MINES
PRESIDENT FINDS SOLDIERS NOT
NECESSARY AT GOLDFIELD.
Report of Investigators Censuring Gov
ernor of Nevada and Mine Own
ers Is Made Public.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 10
President Roosevelt announced his de-
termination to withdraw the federal
troops from Goldheld, New, shortly after
the Legislature begins its special session
Tuesday. This intention was made
known at the white house when the
report Of the special investigating COM
mittee was made public.
The report says:
The conditions did not support the gen
eral allegations in the governor requesr
for troops, nor were his specific statements
established to any such extent as to Justify
MS use of these statements for the purpose
OF getting federal troops
1t concludes with this recommends
ton:
But we must also firmly believe that upon
the assembling of the Legislature with
In few days thereafter, the troops should
De removed, regardless of any request for
their retention that may be made by either
the Legislature or the governor of Nevada. it
being essential that the state of Nevada
shall understand this situation completely,
shall recognize the fact that there will, at
that date, be thrown upon it, and it alone,
the primary responsibility of keepi.g order,
and that recognizing this responsibility if
may take such action is the duty of the
state and as will be sufficient in the
premises
Reviewing the conditions, the report
draws this conclusion:
The action of the mine operators war
rants the belief that they determined upon
a reduction of wages and the refusal of EN-
ployment to members of the Western FEEDER
alton of Miners but that they feared to
take this course of action unless they haH
the protection Of federal troops, and thai
they accordingly laid a plan TO secure such
troops and then put their programme into
effect.
When the troops arrived the mine opera
tors issued such statement, in which they
indicated a reduction in miners wages from
50 to 81 a day, also their intention not TO
employ miners who belonged to the union.

MARK, DESTROYED.

and Others Suffer-Loss Near
ly $25O,00O.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, Jan. 1.-THE
Union station ahneX i'll Union avenue,
adjoining the Union railway station, was
destroyed by fire early today. The
Union station proper, one of Kansas
City's landmarks, was saved by the fire
men after hard fight. The burning
building contained the receiving Offices of
the Adams, Wells Fargo and Pacific EX-
press companies, Il branch mailing room
of the pOStOtlice, the Offices Of the Har-
yey Eating House company and Pullman
Palace Car Company's linen room and
the railway men 5 \. NJ. {. \. rooms.
The loss is estimated 1T close to Il quar-
ter of a million dollars The fire started
at O'Clock from crossed electric light
wires over the registry department Of
the mailing room.
The building was two stories III height
and $50 feet in length, running from
Santa Fe avenue east along Union ave
nue. to within 100 feet of the main por-
ton of the station. The fire burned
furiously and for time threatened the
destruction of the station and sheds used
by twenty railroads and spread to
several hotels across Union avenue ana
into the wholesale district. The fire
spread with such rapidity that the fire
men saved only 800 sacks of common
mail and a small portion OF express mat
ter. Twenty-Five sacks of registered and
some other mail matter were destroyed

BIG RISING IN BERLIN.
10000 Manifestants Parade Streets and
Police Charge Them with Swords
Women in Parade.

BERLIN, Jan. 13.-The determination
sal suffrage, combined with their indigna-
ton against Chancellor Won BuelOW 5
curt declaration refusing their demand
gave rise Sunday to an unusual scene
and a monster popular demonstration, ac-
companied by disorders in the streets IF
the Prussian capital, in which 10000
organized Socialists participated, while
10000 sympathiZers actively joined in
the manifestations. The police were re
peatedly forced to draw their sabers and
charge on the mob.
One of the most remarka Die features Of
the uprising was the number of women
who engaged in the demonstration, and
they appeared even more earnest IN
their activities than the men. The au-
thorities took the sternest measures TO
prevent disorders and the srrictest pre-
cautions to protect the assembly and
other public buildings and Prince Won
Buelow's residence against the Outburst
of popular fury. Groups in the streets
were dispersed in the most vigorous man
ner, and collisions between professions
of manifestants and the police resulted
in the injury of a considerable number
of the demonstrators, but so far as IS
known no fatality occurred. The police
refrained from making arrests except in
cases of extreme violence.
The movement extends throughout
Prussia, where the Socialists are excep-
tionally numerous. Reports received
from other cities, however, do not III
dictate that the demonstrations there We're
accompanied by violence.

Construction in Hawaii at Present Con-
slsts of Only Laying Foundations
for Mortars and Batteries.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. ID
The war department has not been in
formed as yet of the reported withhold
ing of the contract for the construction
of the Notifications in Hawaii for the
alleged reason that Japanese We're real
ly the lowest bidders. Investigation
here shows that only a limited amount
of foundation work is now in progress
there and the officials could see no rea-
son why any line should be drawn on
account of the nationality of those who
are to do this work, the nature of which
cannot be concealed, so that they would
hesitate before they rejected the lowest
bid on that ground.
Work to Be Done.
The principal work now on hand in
Hawaii consists in the construction of
two sets of mortar batteries for which
Congress has specifically appropriated
S3OO.OOO. One of these batteries is To-
Gated at Diamond Head, the great pro-
Pearl harbor. In addition to these large
works there are some rifle gun emplace-
ments near Quarantine and along the
water front of Honolulu.
Naval Base Impregnable.
This years estimates contemplate the
expenditure of $1.11O,OOO to perfect the
and for that amount, it is said, an i'm
pregnable naval base can be secured on
the island of Oahu.
A breakwater is under construction
in HllO bay on the Island of Hawaii
but as this is not complete Honolulu and
Pearl harbOr are the only harbors which
now could be used by naval vessels.

vIsSCHEk PICTURE OF GRIEF.
Chicagoan Who Shot Policeman Deeply
Regrets His Act.

OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 13.-Downcast and re-
morseful, with tears streaming from his
eyes. William Lightfoot Visscher, who Sat
urday night shot and wounded patrol
wagon conductor while he was being taken
to the police station, was the picture OF
grief as he recited his view OF the affair.
Il have only one thing to be thankful
for" said the man, land that is that the
officer was not killed. 1t was the irony OF
fate that / should have had that gun i'll my
possession when l was in no condition to
care for myself. When | packed my grip
preparatory to starting to Chicago there
was no room for the pistol and | stuck it
in my pocket. My mind was a blank from
the time l left the hotel for the depot until
l woke up
Visscher was most anxious to be sent to
a hotel but was told by the captain that
he would be forced to remain in his cell
until the result of the shot should develop.
Many friends visited him in his cell during
the day and he received a number Of tele-
grams from sympathetic friends.
Physicians say Officer DilOn's wound will
not prove dangerous. He is resting easy.

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. Jan. 13.-As
far as he can. Secretary Taft has COM
mitted the American government to Il
promise TO withdraw completely from
Cuba i'll the beginning of spring in 1909.
The pledge is contained in q letter from

After declaring that the report from
the governor shows the conditions in
Cuba to be cncOuraging Secretary Taft

the presidential election until December
and the installation of the President and
Congress and the turning over of the is
land until about March or April of 1909.
This is in compliance with our promise
when we recommended temporary control
of Cuba and it seems TO me that we
ought not permit anything to interfere
with carrying out that promise.
Leave at Time Appointed
There are important interests that
would be glad TO delay our stay there for

leave at the time appointed
