Forestry Discussion.

Leadville.-That the financial strin-
gency has seriously affected the lumber
industry of the country as it concerns
the national forests was brought out
in the discussion of the forest super
visors here Thursday. Statements from
several of the supervisors go to show
that the receipts for the sale of timber
by the government have decreased
about fifty per cent.
James A. Blair of the White River
forest stated that one of the most diff
ficult problems in the preservation of
game is to secure protection from
careless hunters. He said that dur
ing the last game season several hun
dred deer were wounded by sportsmen
and left to go into the forest to die.
Another feature is the damage done
to stock by hunters whose aim is so
wild that the stock suffers, instead of
the game at which they shoot. Some
times hunters mistake cattle for deer
and he estimates the loss of stock
from this source to be from four to
five head of cattle on every ranch.
Mr.. Blair thinks the beef yearly lost
in this manner is of as great value as
all the game killed. He thinks a mis-
take was made in changing the law to
are much more careless now and allow
many does and fawns to die in the
woods.
Assistant Forester C. S. Chapman
of Washington brought message
from Clifford Pinchot, head of the for
estry bureau, in which Mr.. Pinchot
states that he is heartily in favor of
establishing game preserves on the ma
tional forest He desires, however,
that local communities take the initia-
tive in this matter. In such event the
federal government is at all times
ready and willing to assist in every
way possible to have the game pre-
serves established. Many of the ma
tional forests are now being made into
game preserves with good results.
The meeting also expressed itself in
favor of having forest rangers depu-
tized as state game wardens but that
such action should not be taken until
requests had been made from the state
authorities.

Kindel Hearing Continued.

Washington.-A hearing of particu-
lar Importance to Denver and other
cities in the West is being held by the
Interstate Commerce commission. 1t
involves the rates charged by various
express companies for the transporta-
tion of express matter both east and
west from points in the Middle and
far West.
The case is that of George j. Kin
dell of Denver against the Adams EX-
press Company and other express COM
panies, in which the complainant al
leges that the express rates from Den
yer to San Francisco and from Den
YER to points east are unjust, excessive
and discriminatory against Denver.
Mr.. Kindel showed that the rate per
100 pounds from New York to San
Francisco was $1350. while the rate
from Denver to San Francisco was 50
per 100. From other points in the
west to points furt-.er west and to
points in the east the rates indicated
the sare sort of alleged discrimina-
tion. The complainant is seeking to
have the commission adjust the rates
on what he regards an equal basis,
that will provide against unfair dis
elimination against Denver and other
Western cities.

Three Competing Lines.

Greeley.-If competition counts for
anything, Greeley should have three
electric railways, as three roads are
planning to build between Denver and
Greeley and seeking favor from infiu-
ential organizations. The Greeley &
Northern Railway & Utility Company
was first in the field. On Tuesday one
OF it's directors appeared before the
Greeley Commercial club and asked
the clubs endorsement, creating a
storm of discussion lasting three hours.
Finally the following Endorsement WAS
given:
1--WE, the directors Of the CONNER
cial club of Greeley, heartily approve
the efforts Of the Greeley & Northern
Railway C Utility Company to build
between Greeley and Denver, and urge
the City Council, the county commits
sioners and the business men of Gree
ley to do all in their power to give to
Greeley another line to Denver for
freight and passenger transportation,
whether it be this particular company
or any other"

JEALOUSY BRINGS DEATH.
Two Husbands Kin Their Wives and
Then Themselves.

Denver.-Jealousy, that most insidi-
GUS disease of heart and brain, have
just brought about two tragedies in
Colorado, one in Denver and one in
Colorado City. Four deaths resulted,
the crimes being almost identical. In
each case the husband, yielding to
jealous rage that knew no reason,
went with gun in hand and shot down
his weak, defenseless wife. In each
case also the cowardly act was fol-
lowed by suicidal employment of the
same weapons, with successful effect
The Colorado City tragedy was that
of Earl Ryan, a laborer, who shot his
wife and then himself at the home of
his wife's mother. The shooting oc-
Cured Wednesday night at 8 o'clock,
but the bodies were not found till
Thursday morning Appearances indi-
Gated that Ryan had drugged his wife,
taken her to an outhouse back of her
mothers residence and there ended her
life and his own with a revolver.
Jacob Koretzky, of 1865 Decatur
street, Denver Thursday took the life
of his wife and himself, leaving two
world for future support. Jealousy
was the ruling passion in this case, as
in the other. Koretzky thought his
wife unfaithful and was afraid she was
going to New York with the children.
A week ago he is So id to have threat
ened her life. Thursday he shot her
down in cold blood, in the presence of
third party.

ROCKEFELLER
NOT IN CONTROL
HE HAS NOT ACQUIRED THE eue-
GENHElM SHELTER
INTERESTS.
FAMILY STILL OWNERS
STATEMENT OF ROBERT GUGGEN-
Helm, NEPHEW OF THE
SENATOR.

Denver.-Robert Guggenheim, Of the
famous Guggenheim family, is now in
Denver for a few days, says the Re
publican of Friday. He has been in
specting the smelters of the company
in Utah and other western states and
Daniel Guggenheim and nephew of
United States Senator Simon Guggen-
helm
There is no truth whatever in the
report that has been sent abroad that
the Guggenheim interests have gone
into the control of Rockefeller" he
stated positively. There was no oc-
casion for such rumor, and it is en-
tirely without foundation. We expect
to go on with the smelling business
as before. Harry Guggenheim, my
brother, is now in Mexico learning the
business, and cousin named Edmund
is making a study of smelling at Salt
Lake City"
There had been a report to the eff
feet that the Grant and Omaha smell
ters in Denver would be reopened in
order to take care of ore shipped in
from Utah points and throughout Colo
rado. After comforting with Franklin
Guiterman here yesterday, Robert Gug-
Senheim said this was scarcely prob
able at present although there is a
possibility that it will be done later
Many of the big copper mines op-
Grated in Utah are to be reopened soon,
and these will be handled at the Gar
field smelling plant. This will crowd
the capacity of the plant to a great
extent, but Mr.. Gusgenheim gives it
as his belief that the Garfield plant
will be able to handle the ore.
If the Garfield plant should not
prove of sufficient capacity to handle
all the ore sent it, We might either
enlarge that plant or open the smell
ters in Denver" he stated. The smell
ters here have been out of operation
for some time, but have not been en-
tirely dismantled'
The Utah Consolidated Copper Com
pany will begin shipping its ores the
middle of this month, and just what
its output will be cannot be stated at
present. The Garfield plant is expected
to develop capacity of 5000 tons per
day, and it is ultimately expected to
produce an output of 100, ,000, 900 pounds
of copper per year. Copper can be
produced there very cheaply, at a cost
OF about . cents pound.

Teller Predicts Lock Canal Failure.

Washington.-The Senate Tuesday
passed the urgent deficiency bill carry
ing an appropriation of over S24, ,000, 900.
The large deficiency appropriation for
the navy brought out considerable dis
cussion of the subject of the executive
department making expenditures not
provided for in appropriations. De-
ficiency appropriations for the Panama
canal gave rise to Democratic criti-
cism of the publication of a paper by
the canal commission at Panama, and
incidentally Senator Teller declared
that he believed the lock canal at Pan
anna would some day be declared fail
ure and that q sea level canal would
take its place.

Before marriage my wife observed

those using coffee.
When we were married two years
ago, Postum was among our first order

fee and tea for guests, but after both
had stood around the pantry about
year untouched, they were thrown
away, and Postum used only.

House Passes Widows Pensisn Bill.

Washington.-The house Monday
passed the Sulloway bill granting a
fiat pension of $12 monthly to all
widows of honorably discharged sol
diers. Its provisions were first ex-
planned by its author, who said it in
volved an additional expenditure of
$12,741 900.
He described destitute widows of sol
diers, who are unable to secure pen
sions because Of some technically re-
garding their property holdings, and
received applause when he said these
technicalities should be swept away.
An amendment was sought to be
added to the bill by Mr. Fulton (Okla.)
making the pension $50 per month, but
under the rules that could not be done.
He, however, expressed his approval
Of the measure and urged its passage.
The bill was further supported by
Bonynge (Colorado) and others.
Amid loud applause the bill was
passed without division and with only
one voice in opposition. The attend
ance of members today was the largest
since the opening day.

BOYCOTT is ILLEGAL,
Supreme Court Declares Unions Can
not Restrain Interstate Traffic.

not Restrain Interstate Traffic.
Washington.-Monday for the third
time within month the Supreme
Court of the United States promul-
gated an opinion constituting laws ad-
versely to the contentious of organized
labor.
The first of the decisions was rem
dered January 9th in the case of some
railway employees who sought to secure
damages under what is known as the
employers liability law, making rail-
roads responsible for injuries resulting
from the negligence of fellow servants,
which law the court held to be uncon-
stitutional.
The second important finding in this
line was announced January 23rd,
when the Erdman arbitration act, for
bidding the discharge of employees be-
cause they are members of labor
unions, was also declared to be invalid
The verdict rendered today was in
the case of Loewe VS.. Lawler, the lat
ter a member of the Hatters' union and
the former a hat manufacturer of Dan
bury, Conn.
The case involved the applicability
of the seventh section of the Sherman
antitrust law to conspiracies by labor
unions to boycott articles entering into
interstate trade. Under the terms of
that provision the complaining party
may collect three times the amount of
his loss if the charge is sustained.
The union fought the case on the
ground that the law was inapplicable
to such organizations; but the court,
whose opinion was announced by Chief
Justice Fuller, failed to accept this
view, and in effect held that the unions
could not be permitted to interfere by
boycott with the free exchange of COM
merce between the states. There was
no dissenting opinion.
The opinion of the court was unan-
imous. Chief Justice Fuller said:
IN our opinion the combination de-
scribed in the declaration is a COM
bination in restraint of trade or COM
merce among the several states in the
sense in which those words are used
in the act, and the action can be main
tanned accordingly, and that conclu-
sion rests on many judgments of this
court, to the effect that the act pro-
hibits any combination whatever to Sc
cure action which essentially obstructs
the free flow of commerce between the
states, or restricts, in that regard, the
liberty of a trade to engage in bust
ness.
"The combination charged falls
within the class of restraints of trade
aimed at compelling third parties and
strangers involuntarily not to engage
in the course of trade except on condi-
tions that the commission imposes;
and there is no doubt that, to quote
from the well known work of Chief
Justice Erie on trade unions, 'in COM
mon law every person has individually,
and the public has also collectively,
right to require that the course of
trade should be kept free from unrea-
sonable obstruction

Colorado City Wins.

Denver.-The Supreme Court sus-
tanned She ruling of the lower court in
the action brought by Colorado City
against Colorado Springs. The water
supply of Colorado City has been
furnished by Colorado Springs for
many years, and when certain improve
ments were made in the water system
at the Springs the water tax of Colo
RADIO City was raised twenty-five per
cent. over the prevailing rate at the
Springs to pay large portion of the
improvement Colorado City has since
that time paid its water bills under
protest and has now won the fight
against what the lower court pro-
nounced unjust charges.

come to Chilean ports. The Chilean
government has placed it's coal supply
at Punta Arenas at the disposition of
the fleet, but fortunately it has not
been necessary to use it. Daily enter
tainments are being given for the Off
GERS and men of the fleet. By urgent
request the fleet will pass in sight of

Outrages by Night Riders.

Salem, Ky.-Two hundred masked
night riders visited Bycusburg, KY,
early Tuesday morning and applied
the torch to the Bennett tobacco ware
house and distillery. Both were COM
pletely destroyed. The loss is about
$4,000. The mob shot up the home of
William Groves, foreman of the to-
bacco factory, drove him from the
building and whipped him almost to
death.
Henry Bennett, member Of the firm
of Bennett Brothers, was taken from
his home, tied to a tree, and severely
whipped. He was left bound to the
tree. Bennett Brothers operate an in

Life and Affiliated Memberships In Dry
Farming Congress.
Denver-During the session Of the
Trans-Missouri Dry Farming Congress
held in Salt Lake few days ago, res
olution was passed that creates new
department on part of the body, and the
aim of it is to get all farmers as well
as others personally interested in the
great science of dry farming which is
destined to become SO important
factor in the arid West. The Dry
Farming Congress wants the cooper
alton of the practical agriculturist as
well as the scientist and business man,
and in order that the plans anr pur-
poses of the congress may become
more effective, it is necessary as well
beneficial to all concerned that the
farmers cooperate with the congress
in the work by giving the movement
their personal Endorsement. A consid-
cradle amount of literature bearing on
dry farming, valuable papers read be-
fore the session, and the proceedings
of each congress will be included in
the printed matter, and the dollar in
vested in a membership will bring lit
eraturo and information of six times
that amount.
The following resolution, which ex-
plains itself, was introduced by the
executive committee of the Trans
Missouri Dry Farming Congress held in
Salt Lake, of which F. G. Bowman of
this city is chairman:

pointed according to the foregoing
clauses of this article, there shall exist
an affiliated membership of this con-
gress, said persons constituting this

life memberships shall have all the
privileges of a delegate to the meet
ings of this congress and shall further
receive from the secretary, from time
to time, such bulletins and other infor-
nation as may be printed by this con-
gress for circulation among its dele
gates and members, which shall in
clude to each member and delegate an
official copy of the proceedings of the
meetings of each congress"
1t is earnestly desired that all inter
ested in dry farming will send to Fisher
Harris, secretary, Salt Lake City, Utah,
their names and addresses, with the
membership fee which will entitle them
to the above privileges.

Too Interesting to Bury.

There is a certain little southern
girl who is very fond of her negro
nanny. The nurses name is Sally,
and she is large woman, SO she is
known as Big Sally. Ethel, however,
calls her "Biggie" for short. One day
her mother took her to a museum,
where, among other things, there were
some stuffed animals. Ethel was
greatly interested, and for many days
she did not tire of talking about them.
Perhaps week later, at the supper
table, after preoccupied silence, she
said:
Mamma, when Biggie dies I'm not
going to have her buried; I'm going to
have her stuffed"
