COLORADO RANGE DISPUTE
Cowboys Tie Herders to Trees and
Slaughter 5000 SkeeY-yheA
Escape to the Kills.

Grand Junction. Colo. May 20-As a
result Of a battle between sheepmen
aud cowboys, on a contested ranch

sheep were killed and two sheepmeu
were injured, but not seriously. The
sheep, which belonged to Taylor Broth
ers of Montrose, were grazing on
range near the Hamlet Of Csrbinero.
According to the reports received
here. the cowboys dashed in upon the
herders and tied them to trees and then
went among the sheep and killed them
The slRughtTr OF the sheep required a.
most an entire day. In order to pre-
vent the news leaking out, the cow
bows cut the telephone wires and made
their escape in the hills. Several hours
later the sheep herders were discov-
cred and liberated.
The authorities Of Garfield county
have been notified. but owing to the
fact that the district in which the
sheep slaughter took place is IN a
desOlate portion of western Colorado, It
is not regarded probable that the cow
boys Will be captured
The range in which the crime was
committed has long been a contested
range and several murders have result

ASP IRATIONS
OF FILIPINOS
Second Resolution Passed by
the Assembly in Favor of
Independence.

Manila. May 20.-With but slight va
Ration from its action on final adjourn
ment of the session of 1908, the Philip
pine general assembly in the closing
hour of its session today passed a sec
Ond resolution declaring In favor of the
independence of the islands. The last
fOrmalities with the Philippine COM
mission had been exchanged. and the
statutory hour of adjournment had
passed when the question was presented
by Speaker Osmena. He said the policy
Of the assembly was to work in har-
mony with and support the government
in all measures calculated to advance
the interests of the Filipinos. Never
theless, the members had not abau-
dOned their original aspiration for indie
pendence, and, therefore, he moved that
the Filipino delegates TO the congress
of the United States be instructed to
present the question to that body when
ever an opportunity was offered.
The members Of the progressista, or
minority party, asked permission to
obstain from voting, which was grant
ed. All the nationalists then voted in
favor Of the resolution.
The closing days of the session were
marked by great harmony between the

tically all the important legislation de-
sired by the government was enacted.
Among the most important measures
passed were the railway guarantee bill,
which insures the construction of a rail-
way to BagUiO and the extension of the
lines in central Luzon to the extreme
southern part Of the island, practically
making a through trunk line across
LuZOn from north to south, and q. bank

was decided to change the date of the
meeting of the legislature from the hot
spring season to October and, therefore
there will be no further session until
the fall Of 1910. The total amount Of
the budget passed is 16 500, 900 pesos.

SERVICES WILL
Be VERY SIMPLE
Arrangements Completed for
the Funeral of Standard
Oil Magnate.

New York, May 0.-Arrangements
for the funeral of Henry H. Rogers, the
Standard Oil magnate, were completed
today. The services viii be held in the
Church of the Messiah I'm this city to-
morrow morning. the Rev. DR.. Robert
Collier officiating. quartette from
the Mendelssohn Glee club viii sing.
The body will then be taken to Fair
Haven, Mass, and simple services will
be held on Saturday in the memorial
church which Mr.. Rogers gave to that
community The interment will be in
a mausoleum, which Mr.. Rogers caused
to be erected some years ago in River
side cemetery in oxford, near Fair
Haven.
A general belief prevails among the
business associates of Mr.. ROBBERS that
his affairs viii be found to be in sound
condition and well protected. His es-
tate is believed to be invested mainly
in his Virginia railroad property and
in safe, diyidend-paying stocks and
bonds.
Mr.. Rogers duties as president Of the
Amalgamated Copper company are ex-
pected to be taken up by John D. Ryan,
now president of the Anaconda Copper
company, who was his closest business
associate.
The care of Mr.. Rogers private es-
tate is expected to fall upon the Shout
ders either of his son, II. II. Rogers,
jr., or his son-in-law, Urban II. Brough-
ton, who has had much TO do with Mr..
Rogers affairs in recent years. The
son, however, has in the last two years
been gradually assuming some of the
tasks which had to be borne by a man
having so many important interests as
Mr.. Rogers. and the feeling prevails
among the business men with whom the
young man has been brought into con-
tact that he has qualified to continue
the conduct of the estate if necessary.

TAFT ASKED TO
LEAD THE WAY
Resolutions Adopted by the
M0honk Lake Conference
on Arbitration.
ADDRESS BY A JAPANESE
NIPPONEsE CONFIDENT OF THE
FRIENDSHIP OF AMERICANS.

Mohonk Lake, \. Y, May 20.-~Crazy."
mad, emotional insanity" sinful"
were some of the terms used today by J.
Allen Baker, NJ p, in telling the No
honk Lake peace conference about Great
Britain's Dreadnaught program.
Il largely indorse. said Mr. Baker
what President Butler has said as to the
emotional insanity of the present mad
race for battleships in Great Britain and
Germany Our house of commons, Of
which 1 am member. is the chief sim
ner in having started the crazy compe-
tition in building Dreadnanghts. But
you must remember we have a yellow
press in Great Britain, and you must not
believe all that it says regarding the So
called German war scare
Mr.. Baker declared the peace of the
world today lies in the hands OF the
United States, Germany and Great Bri-
tain and that the United States can join
with Germany and England and thus pre-
vent possible warfare and stop the Dread
naught competition He invited President
Taft to take the lead in this direction.
Taft Asked to Lead.
business men representing ffty-eight
chambers of commerce from nineteen
states and Canada. VINO are attending the
conference adopted a resolution urging
leading the nations TO concurrent tmita-
ton OF reduction in the armies and ma
vies Of the world.
The resolution declared;
The rivalry among civilized nations for
increased ornaments is greatly to be
deprecated. We believe the time has
come in which the nations should depend
upon justice. Therefore, we advise that
nations trust to arbitration rather than
force, to courts rather than arms
japanese Consu!'s Address.
Speaking tonight before the conference,
KOkOcichi MidzumO, japanese consul
general at New York, said:
I'VE are so confident Of the sincerity
Of American friendship that during the
last few years, when SO many bitter
voices against Japan were heard in
certain section Of this great republic, the
whole japanese people remained quiet
and fully convinced of the fact that the
anti-Japanese movement did not represent
the true sentiment OF the American people
at large"
Referring to the exchange of notes be
tween Japan and the United States on the
common policy Of the two countries in
the Pacific and China, which he said was
one more tie OF friendship. the consul
general continued;
I rejoice with YOU that that diplomatic
declaration was so heartily welcomed by
the people not only of both countries, but
Of the whole world as the guarantee Of
peace.
Commerce and Trade.
But we must not forget that commerce
and trade play a more important part
than the hOneyed phraseOlogy and dipio-
macy IN bringing together the people OF
different countries.
The international relations Of today no
longer consist merely in the exchange Of
the ENJOYS and dispatches, but they are
and must be based on mutual understand
ing and intercourse between the peoples
and upon the commercial and industrial
independence between the countries"
Joseph Shipper Of Seattle also addressed
the conference.

Heney Volunteered.

MI Spreckels, replying to Mr.. Heney.
testified that the latter had volunteered
TO work without pay at the outset of
the prosecution. at which time, he
added. there was no intention of at
tempting to bring to justice any persons
other than Mayor Z. E. Schmitz, Abra-
ham Ruef and officials of the admins
tration.
Mr. Heney devoted the greater part
of the afternoon session TO an attempted
demonstration of the fact that Mr..
Spreckels had engaged him to prose-
cute the investigation prior to the date
on which the supervisors are alleged to
have been bribed in the overhead troll
ley deal.
why did you engage in this work of
prosecution and spend those large sums
of money!" Mr. Spreckels was asked.
