Sitting once in the Three Horses
at Medicine Bend, Rebstock had talked
with Whispering Smith. Il used to

young man. and handy; 1t wouldn't

anxiety and In a confidential moment.
Under pressure he was, like all men.
different.
Whispering Smith had acquaintance
even in the Cache. and after a little
careful accommodating he found a Grip
pied-up thief. driving a mich COW
down the Cache, who was willing to
take a message to the boss.
Whispering Smith gave his instruc-
tons explicitly. facing the messenger,
as the two sat In their saddles, with
an importunate eye. Say to Rebstock
exactly these words" he insisted.
This is from Whispering Smith: /

Riding circumspectly in and about
the entrance to the Cache, the party
waited an hour for an answer. When
the answer came. 1t was unsatisfac-
tory. Rebstock declined to appear
upon 30 trivial a matter, and Whisper
ing Smith refused to specify a further
grievance. More parley and stronger
messages were necessary to stir the
Deep creek monarch. but at last he
sent word asking Whispering Smith to
come to his cabin accompanied only
by Kennedy.
The two railroad men rode up the
canyon together. "And now l will
show you a lean and hungry thief

The Fiah. In the Cache.

A clear night and a good moon made
a long ride possible, and the Crawling
Stone contingent. headed by Stormy
German, began coming into the rail-
road camp by three o'clock the next
morning. With them rode the two
Yovngs, who had lost the trail they
followed across Goose river and joined
the cowboys on the road to the north.
The party divided under Kennedy
and Smith, who rode through the Door
into the Cache Just before daybreak.
Il don't know what / am steering
you against this morning, Farrell"
said Whispering Smith. Certainly I
should hate 20 run you into Du Sang.
but we can't tell where we SHAY strike

right I ought TO see him as soon as
anybody does. Accidents do happen,
but remember he will never be any
more dangerous than he is at the first
moment. Get him TO talk. He gets
nervous II he can't shoot right away.
When you pull, get a bullet into his
stomach at the start, If you possibly
can, to spoil his aim. We mustn't

THIEVES RAISE

MISTAKE PRINT SHOP FOR THE
GAINESVILLE BAKERY.
Have Long Been in Practice Of Enter.
ing Bakery and Stealing Pies,
Cakes and Bread.

Petty thieves who have been in the
practice of entering the Gainesville
Bakery made their mistake Sunday
morning and instead entered the
printing Office window adjoining.
The above Is the suppOsition that
caused the fire alarm early Sunday
morning that summoned the depart
ment to the Hill block, when one of
the windows was found to be burning
briskly, but required only the use Of
one of the chemical engines to ex-
tinguish the flames.
Policeman Owens was making his
regular rounds on Sunday morning
when he got a smell of the smoke, and
further investigation revealed the fire.
which might have proved a serious
one had IL been discovered a few min
utes later, being near the warehouse
of the Baird Hardware Company.
For some time past petty thieves
have been visiting the bakery located
in this block, effecting an entrance by
the back window, but IL Is thought
as the night was dark they easily
made the mistake Of the window and
after having entered dropped the
match that ignited a pile Of greasy
press rags and caused the fire.

TAFT STANDS BY PlNcHoT.
SAYS He Has Not Criticized Work Of
Chief Forester.

SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 27.-As a
result of several long conferences with
Chief Forester Clifford Pinchot here
President Taft caused to be issued
statement in which ii is declared that
never at any time during the Bal
linger-Pinchot controversy has the
president intended to reflect upon Mr.
Pinchot. and in which Mr.. Taft takes
a more forward stand than even IN
favor Of the Roosevelt policies for con-
servation of natural resources.
The president indicates that what is
to be done in the way of reclamation
of lands must be done within the law,
but announces his intention of apply
ing TO congress for such confirmatory
and enabling legislation as will put the
Roosevelt policies on the firmest pos
sible basis.
Mr.. Pinchot. before leaving tonight
for Washington, also issued state
ment in which he makes public por-
ton of President Taft's letter written
to the chief forester at the time the
/ letter to Secretary Ballinger was die
tated. The president said he hoped
! Mr.. Pinchot would not find reason il
the Ballinger letter for resigning.
Il shall not resign, declared Mr.. Pin
chott and he adds that he is going tt
continue TO serve the government
along the same lines he has pursued
in the past, concluding with the state
ment: Il believe in equality of oppor
tunity and the Roosevelt policies ant

SENATOR BURTON SUGGESTS
BETTER WAY OF AIDING
RIVER NAVIGATION.
WOULD PROTECT TRAFFIC
FROM KILLING COMPETITION
Advocates Legislation Fixing Minimum
of Competing Rail Rate of 115 Per
Cent of River Rate-Plan Works
Successfully in Germany.
Tspecial Corresponaence.1

Washington, Sept 27.-Just before he
went to Europe this summer with the
national waterways commission, Sem
ator Burton expressed the opinion that
instead of expending some hundreds Of
millions of dollars in improving water
ways for navigation, the first real
business of the government ought to be
to pass some legislation which would
protect traffic on the waterways from
being destroyed by unrestricted compe-
tition of the railroads.
But could such legislation be pass
ed?" demanded Senator Burton, recog-
nized as the foremost authority in con-
gress on waterway matters. Suppose
thar it were seriously proposed to pass
Louis to New Orleans should not be
less than rs per cent of the waterway
rate by the Mississippi, would anybody
vote for it?"
Senator Burton observed that that is
the sort of legislation to which some
of the European countries have resort
rates, driving the business all off the
water. and then restoring the rates as
soon as the water competition had been
stopped He was willing to concede the
evil. and the need of remedy; but
he was uncertain whether the drastic
remedy needed could be put into legis-
lation.
Take ST. Louis and Kansas City
continued the senator. There is the
Missouri river water route; and there
are several rail routes between them
They are making a determined effort
TO establish river barge line and
think are going to succeed. But sup
pose it We're proposed absolutely te
make the railroad freight between
/ those two great centers higher than th5
/ water rate, and 10 hold there; would
the people of the two cities favor il
when ii came to the scratch?"

answered BY one member of congress

legislation He IS Representative Stay

! IN favor Of protecting the waterway
