SHOPMEN ALL OUT
ON RIO CRANDE
No Sign Of Peace in Strike-Not I'm
probable That Trouble May
Spread Over Entire System.

Denver, March 17.--There is no sign
of peace in the Denver and Rio Grande
strike. In the local shops only five
men are at work and they are heavily
guarded. AS near as can be deter
mined the local situation is typical Of
conditions along the whole line. The
union machinists, bolermakers and
blacksmiths consider the present
strike struggle for the preservation
of unionism in the West. There is
little possibility of the trainmen's
union joining the strike unless the
road should attempt to break its con-
tracts with them which is very un-
likely. 1t is not improbable, however.
that the shopmen on all the Gould
lines may be involved before many
days.

TRIES TO EAT CHECK WHEN
CHARGED WITH FORGERY
Woman Accused of Attempting to Pass
Worthless San Bernardino Order
Creates Excitement in Store
on Broadway

Mrs. Ella Kincaid, a handsome and
stylishly attired brunette, said to be a
"stage struck" San Bernardino woman,
is said to have created a sensation in
the Paris cloak and suit house. 252
South Broadway, yesterday, when she
endeavored to eat a check, drawn on a
San Bernardo bank, for $3.50, and
which the manager of the store refused
to accept on the suspicion of forgery.
The woman walked very indifferently
into the store, II is said, and asked to
be showr some stylish tailor-made
suits. She was shown several. and
finally selected handsome street cos
tune priced at $50.
In payment for the dress, it is al
.eged, the woman rendered a check
drawn on a San Bernardino bank for
1880 The check was referred to the
management OF the store, and was re-
fused.
During he- examination, it is said,
the woman grabbed the check and at
tempted t. swallow it. She was barely
prevented from accomplishing her pur-
pose, and was held by the clerks until
detectives were sent for.
Detectives Mcnamara and Murray
took the woman in charge. She denied
her guilt empfatically, but was locked
up at the central police station on sus-
picion. pending further investigation.

ALDRICH BILL
is MODIFIED
AMENDMENTS INCORPORATED IN
MEASURE
DEMOCRATS ARE PREPARING A
SUBSTITUTE
Senator Is Confident His Proposed
Law viii Be Reported Before
the End of the
Week

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The COM
pleted text of the Aldrich financial bill,
which will be submitted to the full
committee after a meeting has been
held to go over the data from the treas
ury department, will contain the
amendments that have been tentatively
agreed to at the various meetings or the
committee on finance.
There will also be a series of small
provisions added to the bill which have
been devised to make 1t work smoothly
as an emergency measure. 1t will be
made mandatory upon the secretary OF
the treasury to make and keep on hand
a supply of notes which can be quickly
issued upon CALL
The secretary of the treasury will be
required to proceed Immediately upon
the law taking effect to gather data
concerning the new class of securities
provided in the measure. The bonds of
every city in the country will be in
spected and their worth stated in treas
ury reports, as will be done with any
securities that are at any time liable to
come within the workings of any emer-
gency currency law.
It has been settled that the distribu-
ton of the currency will be by states
instead of districts, as formerly pro-
posed.
The financial data required of the
treasury is expected to reach the sem
ate on Wednesday, according to Senator
Aldrich He is confident his measure
will be reported before the end of the
week.
The Democratic members of the
finance committee will prepare their
substitute for tho AldricEl bill as soon
as the data arrives from the treasury
department. The proposition Of Sena-
tor Bailey that the government make
emergency deposits in designated de-
positories will probably be the main
feature of the bill.

ATTORNEY ACCUSED OF AN
ATTEMPT TO BE BAD MAN

w. P. Schocky. an attorney living at
Eleventh and Winifred streets, was
arrested by Special Officer Holzen
about eleven o'clock last night and
locked up at the city Jail on a charge
of disturbing the peace.
Schocky, who was we'll dressed and
appeared to be prospecting from his
profession, is said to have imbibed too
freely from the cheering chalice of a
Spring street bar room. and to have
thereupon, deliberately and defiantly
made a dramatic attempt to emulate
the devious ways of a wild and woolly
bad man-such as sometime hail from
the cattle camps and lin fiction) make
things hum by showing the city folks
a few scientific strong-arm stunts.
Schocky, it is said. first endeavored
to put the conductor of West Elev-
enth street car out of commission,
later, it is declared. whipped a couple
of interfering passengers, cleaned out
the car and subsequently tried to whip
the policeman who arrested him.
Schocky was locked up in the city
tanks, and this morning will be given
a chance to explain.
