KNOWLES
ARRESTED

This afternoon Special Officer G.
G. Knowles, employed in the Rio
GIande yards, was arrested on war
rant sworn out by one or more OF
the striking shopmen, charging him
with using abusive language in talk
ing with one of the strikers today.
1t is alleged that Officer Knowles
called the man liar.
IL is city warrant, and Knowles
will be arraigned before Judge @. Ii.
Hill late this afternoon. He was ar
rested by Policeman Allison while on
duty in the railroad yards.
The arrest grew out of discus
sion on Main street between the Of
ficer and some of the strikers, re-
carding the arrest of William Cole
man.
Late this afternoon the trial of
the case was postponed until tomor-
row morning at 10 O'Clock.

|T0DAY'S BASE BALL
| RESULTS /

fuel testing plant, which until the
early part of 1907 was operated at
st. Louis, Mo. Goals from all over
the country were tested in the steam
engine and gas engine in order to
determine their efficiency. Fifty-six
different bituminous Goals were test
ed in the steam boiler and engine
and gas producer and engine, and
the figures show that on an average
it took nearly three times as much
coal to produce a horse power in the
steam engine as in the gas engine.
The actual figures for the average
from all Goals were, 1.57 pounds of
coal burned to produce one horse
power for an hour in the gas engine
and 4.45 pounds in the steam engine.
The best coal used produced a horse
power per hour in the gas engine for
less than one pound of coal, while
the steam engine used 2.41 pounds
or 2.43 times as much as the gas en-
gine.

CHARGE HIM WITH
EMBEZzLING $4,000
[Bv Associated Press. ]

Pittsburg, Pa, May S.-Wi1liam
Montgomery, cashier of the Alleghe-
ny National Bank for more than 20
years, was arrested late yesterday af-
ternoon on a charge of embezzling
$4,000 of the banks funds.
He was arraigned last night and
held for the federal grand jury un-
der bond of $4,000, which was
furnished.
The financial standing of the bank
is in no wise affected by the defalca-
tion, as it is in a position to bear
the loss without embarrassment.
Mr. Montgomery has always been
prominent in politics and was close
friend of the late Senator Quay. He
was also prominent in society.

''In our Investigations we find
that in the mining operations of this
country nearly one-half of the total
coal supply is left underground, I"
said ]. A. Holmes, chief of the tech
nologic branch. This coal is left as
pillars to support the roof of the
mine or because it is of inferior
quality, only the best part of the
coal being removed from many beds.
The waste is also due to the fact
that the working out of the lower
beds of coal first, in some cases,
breaks and renders impracticable the
subsequent mining of the adjacent
higher coal beds.

1--WE are skimming the cream of
the natural resources of the coun-
try. We are using the best and
cheapest of our supplies. Each of
the succeeding generations will OBJ
tain its needed general supply, but
each will pay higher prices for the
reason that owing to the increasing
depth mining will be continually
more expensive and more dangerous
"It is believed that an increasing
large part of this waste Is prevent
able. In most European coal pro-
ducing countries coal waste has been

And the Negro Suffers Only a Slight
Abrasion.
New York, Oct. 2O.-John Stokes, a
hcrculean negro, IS years old, who lives
at A West l35th street and whose voca.
ton is totng nod at twelye.story
building at l57 West Twenty-ffth street,
had an experience yesterday morning
which, while not precisely what he would
have chosen, was quite exhilarating
while IL lasted. While working on the
top floor John stepped carelessly on the
hole where the hod elevator ascends, and
as the elevator was at the bottom Of
the shaft, he shot downward with con.
siderable speed.
His fellow workmen, who saw him
depart thus abruptly, or caught glimpses
Of him as he shot down past the floors
with his arms extended straight mp over
his head, called to Policeman Myer of
the West Twentieth street station TO
get doctor and then swarmed down the
ladders TO attend the expected post. NOR
EN- Stokes had no intention OF taking
the principal part in that ceremony,
though, and when DIR. Monroe of the
New York hospital arrived the negro's
chief concern was that his boss should
not think he had left the top floor to
shirk any work you sec all had to
come down TO lunch, anyway" he re-
marked, and he was considerably an
noyed that he had to lose the time neces.
sary to take him to the hospital and
give him tborugh examination No
injuries could be discovered on his per
son other than an abrasion over one
eye, where a projecting board struck
him, and now Stokes is back at work,
carefully avoiding all bod hoists.

Pelican ard Elnminao.

The hook OF the peiean's bin is red,
and undoubtedly the fable that the
pelican feeds its young with blood
from its own breast originated in the
birds habit Of pressing the bin upon
the breast In order to more easily
empty the pouch, when the red tip
might be mistaken for blood Another
explanation is that the pelican became
confused with the hamingo which
discharges into the mouth of its young
n secretion which In color resembles
blood.
