TROOPS WIlLRtMAIN
ROOSEVELT WILL LEAVE PRO
TECTi % IN GOLDfIELD.
Roosevelt Had Demanded That State
Must Take Action to Protect Itself
Troops lmmed iately-No More Fear
of Trouble in GoldfieId,

Reno, New, Dec 3O.-A special SEES
sion of the Nevada legislature will be
called by Governor John Sparks. The
governor says that he will issue the
proclamation today and that the date
of converting will be in about two
weeks.
The call will be made at the request
of President Roosevelt, who has noti-
fed Nevada's governor that such &C
ton must be taken or troops now at
Goldheid would be removed. Notifica-
ton of the decision to assemble the
legislature has been transmitted, Gov
ernor Sparks says, to Washington.
GoldfeId is Assured Peace.
Goldfield, New, Dec. &c. - The
announcement made here that Gov
ernor Sparks has telegraphed word 20
President Roosevelt that he will call
the Nevada Legislature together in spe-
cial session as soon as possible has put
an entirely new aspect on the labor
situation here. At least a portion Of
the federal troops will, it is thought,
remain in Goldfield for an indefinite
period and all fear of any serious dis
turbance growing out of the dispute
has vanished. 1t is not at all certain
that the legislature will act in &C
cordance with the wishes of Governor
Sparks, but the calling of the special
session will have the effect of keeping
federal troops in Goldfield for several
weeks and will make the possibility of
serious trouble more remote.
The governor has asked many prom
inent citizens of Nevada for an ex-
preston of opinion regarding the spe-
cial session and has received only IA
vorable replies.
The Esmeralda county grand jury
has refused the appointment of a
board of arbitration to attempt settle
ment of the strike. George Wingfeld
prominent as a member of the mine
owners association. is member of the
grand jury. The governor will give at
least 10 days notice OF the converting
of the legislature and the call will be
issued Monday or Tuesday
County Commissioner Rosenthal OF
Goldfield, asked for his resignation by
Governor Sparks, has refused to va
cate his Office, and Sparks said today
the refusal had been received at the
executive office. Rosenthai was
thought by the governor to be working
contrary to Sparks interests.

Grave Is Disturbed to Solve Mystery
of London

u LOHuOn.
Loadon.-The work of opening the
grave of Thomas Charles bruce in
Highgate cemetery to determine pri-
marily whether the coffin contains the
body of man or, as has been asserted
a roll of sheet lead weighing some 200
the clearing up of this mystery will
nelp materially the progress OF the
famous bruce case.
The three-ton monument which
marks the resting place of the bruce
family was removed by a score OF
workmen, who were protected from
public observation by shed which
had been erected around the burial
plot. Within the shed electric lights
were installed, so that operations
might proceed without interruption.
All of those in attendance at the
opening of the grave and the coffin
have been sworn to secrecy, so that
the result of the investigation will not
be known until the expert evidence IS
developed at the police court.
Duke or FOrtldnd or DruCel
Herbert bruce, the defendant in the
now famous case, is charged with COM
hitting perjury by swearing that his
father Thomas Charles bruce, of the
Baker street bazaar, died December 2S
1864, and that he saw the dead body
placed il a coffin and buried in High
gate cemetery. His nephew, George
hOllandby bruce, declares that this
must be untrue, because c.. T. bruce
was in fact the fifth duke of Portland,
who lived until 1879. That being 50
George Hollandby bruce claims thai
he himself, being the senior descend
ant in the male line, is now the right
full heir of the Portland dukedom and
to certain rich estates, the income
from which is placed at $1,500,000
year, now held by Lord Howard de
Walden. The opening of the grave,
however, will not give conclusive proof
of the claim of George Hollandby
bruce.
Later Report.
Thomas Charles BRUCE coffin con-
tains human remains. The body of an
aged, bearded man was found when it
was open in Highgate cemetery. The
feature were unrecognizable, but it is
generally considered the find wrecks
the hopes Of George Holamby bruce,
claimant to the title and estates Of the
duk edom of Portland.
The perjury charge against Herbert
bruce, the elder Druce's son by second
marriage, who said he saw his father
in the coffin 3 years before the fifth
duke of Portland died, falls to the
ground.
