THINKS HAvEMEYER WAS AN HONEST
 GENTLEMAN
Former Secretary of Treas ury Didn't Think Trust
 Guilty of Thievery

DENVER, November 30.-" Even though Mir. Towels testimony might be construed to prove me rascal, which it won t, l would still bear wit ness to his truth and honesty. If he says | sent Wakeman to Havemeyer-- man whom, by the way, l had never seen--then l undoubtedly gave such a direction to Wakeman.' declared for mer Secretary of the Treasury Lyman J. Gage, who is in Denver today accom-. panied by his bride, on their honey moon trip.
 w. B. Howell, when Mir Gage was in the cabinet, was assistant secretary of the treasury, and is now general ap- praser in the customs department.
 Wilbur F, Wakeman, former ap- praiser of the customs department, al legged that he laid evidence of crook edness before Gage, and Gage directed him to submit all his proofs to H. O.. Havemeyer, president of the American Sugar Refining company, with my compliments. v
 NdhtHdH SldltHNtHtS udNt bttH eorroborated by Howells.
 MT. Gage insists that there was noth- ing significant in his having given such an order at the time to Wakeman.
 "What Mir. Howell may say is the truth, or his careful recollection of the truth,' said Mir. Gage today.
 ''I could not believe at that time, !" Gage continued, that the head of such big, important corporation would stoop to petty thievery and bribery, and my natural inclination would be to lay the matter before the man l considered an honorable business gentleman, and give him an opportunity to ferret out the crime
 'My recollection of Wakeman is that he was little inclined to be rattle brained, but I put two detectives on the clews he furnished and l don t believe anything conclusive was found.

ABANDONED SHIP ID SAVE WH|SKEY Sensational Charge Made by Passenger of Burned
 St. Croix

SAN FRANCISCO, November 3O.- Henry Thomas, who was a passenger on the steamer St. Croix at the time of her destruction by fire, caused some. thing of sensation today before the federa'inspectors investigating the dis aster, when he charged that no attempt was made to subdue the flames, the crew of the vessel devoting themselves to manning the lifeboats. He declared he saw members of the crew running about the decks tossing bottles of liquor into the boat, while the fire hoses, lying uncoiled in the saloon deck, were neglected and no water was run through them.
 Thomas said that he noticed smoke in the dining saloon before the fire was reported and called the attention of the stewards and walters to it. He said this was about 12:10 p. m. and that the fire extiuguishers were not put into ac- tion until 12:45.
 The testimony today did not serve to throw any light upon the cause of the fire.

 QUOTATIONS
+++++++***+*+*+

BOSTON, November 30, Special Mar. ket Letter-Heavy liquidation eontin. ued today in copper stoeke, but support wts good and the close quiet and strong.
 Utah Copper declared its regrlar quarterly dividend of fifty cents per share.
 The copper merger will in no way conflict with the federal laws, and pro- posed merger will benefit the copper in dustTy to a remarkable extent.
 The proposed merger will be set be- fore President Taft in it's true light this wek.
 There will be no monopoly, and con- solidatiOn such as proposed will help consumer as we'll as producer.
 BOSTON, November 30, Wire from E. F. Hutton & Colt is reported that Morgan said the copper combination was not opportune at this time, which had bad effect in early trading, but this was denied later, and copper and smelters recovered.
 Disquieting cables from London on English budget, and the uncertainty as to the president $ message to con. gress, are keeping the market back.
 It is generally conceded that some kind of a copper combination will be formed, but until some definite state ment is made, the market is likely to be more or less cratic.

GEN. GRANT TALKS
 MUCH TOO MUCH
Tells Department His Views
 Were Unofficial

CHICAGO, November 30.--An inter view reported to have been given by General Fred D. Grant appeared in q Chicago newspaper last Saturday. in this interview the commander of tho department of the lakes was quoted as saying the United States would have no claim for reparation upon the govern. ment of Nicaragua if it were found that Cannon and Groee were insurgents.
 After the interview had caused com. ment at Washington, General Grant said he had expressed his personal opin, ion that no reparation could be demand. ed in the Nicaraguan case if the Amer. jeans executed were found to be insur- rectionists. He said he knew nothing of the merits of the case and expressed no opinion upon it to be regarded as of. fcial.

LAWYERS THINK DIFFERENT

WASHINGTON, D. C., November 30. General Frederick D. Grants report ed utteranees regarding the executions in Nicaragua of the two Americans, Cannon and Groee, will probably not be subject for action by the secre- tary of war. Legal officers of the gov ernment, however, well versed in iu- ternational law, take view of the mat.
 ter entirely at variance with that of General Grant and hold out that there could be no legal or other justification
 for the killing of Cannon and Groce.

Men Well Organized

"I have never seen the time when the men were so thoroughly organized and ready for concerted action as in the present instance. This strike will re- suit in the most complete tieup of railroads and traffic in the territory af- feeted that has ever been known, not even excepting the great strike of 1891.
 From now on, not switch engine will move in the territory between the head of the lakes and the Pacific coast.
 "The switehmen greatly regret the action they have been forced to take. We did not wish to strike and used ev- cry reasonable means to avoid one. And l am quite positive that if we had to deal only with the officials of the northwestern roads instead of with a general committed, we would have reached an amicable agreement.

Have Difficulty in Arriving at Verdict in Trial of
 Roosevelt Man
MIDIGOVICH BOYS
 ENTER GUILTY PLEA
Trial of Phillipson Contin- ued-Other Matters Be
 fore Court

Unable to agree as to the ouilt or in- noeence of the defendant, the jury in the case of Alduro Collins. charged with an assault with intent to commit murder on Jess Henderson, spent the entire night at the court house.
 From what could be learned late last night, there is little likelihood that the jury will be able to agree and a re- trial of the case is not improbable.
 The Collins jury is made up of H. I. Davis, E. T. Buford, w. D. Boardman, Henry Nichols, w. II. Childress, Sam Torbert, c. E. Gilman, G. A. Gallen. tine, J. E. Nash, c. E. Grubbs, II. C.. Eisenhour and M L. Feagles.
 Collins trial occupied nearly the en- tire day and it was not until after 3 clock that the jury was charged by the court and sent out to deliberate on a verdict.
 The shooting which resulted in the charge against Collins occurred at a ranch upon which Collins lives, few miles north of Roosevelt, about six weeks ago.
 dispute of long standing existed be tween Collins and Henderson, regarding water rights. On the day of the shoot ing Henderson went to Collins place and after talk on general topics, the water right question arose.
 A heated discussion followed, which resulted in the shooting of Henderson.
 The injured man claims that Collins had no provocation for the shooting.
 Collins on the other hand, claims that after the dispute, Henderson followed him to the house, carrying two sharp hay hooks He claims that Tender. son was attempting to enter the house, with the hooks still in his hands, when he fired the shot.
 Collins and Henderson were the only witnesses to the shooting. Mrs. Collins heard the dispute and testified that she saw Henderson follow her husband to the house from a point about fifty yards distant.
 Attorneys Stoneman and MeCollum acted in Collins defense, with District Attorney Shute and Assistant Vein berger as prosecutors.
 The jurors wrangled over the verdict until after 9 O o'clock last night, when they asked for hunks and prepared to remain all night in the courthouse. The poll of the jury could not be learned last night.
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1909-12-01

 November 23, after discussion of the proposal to arbitrate under the terms of the Erdman act, at the suggestion of President Hawley, joint telegram was addressed to Martin A. Knapp, of the interstate commerce commission, and Charles F. Neill, United States commis- .sioner of labor, asking them to act as mediators under the Erdman act.
 '." About November %, before the con ference with Messrs. Knapp and Neill had begun, despite the understanding reached in conference, and without knowledge of either the managers com mittee or the mediators, strike order was issued by the switchmen's commit tee, directing the switchmen on thirteen northwest railroads to cease work at D. m. November 90. in event their full demands were not conceded,
 "This violation of good faith so em- barrassed negotiations that successful mediation became impossible and led to demand by Messrs Knapp and Neill, addressed to both the managers commit tee and the switchmen, that the con troversy be submitted to arbitration un- der the terms of the Erdman act. To this proposal the managers committee gave it's willing assent, but the switch men absolutely declined it.
 Switchmen's Statement
 Speaking for the switchmen tonight President Hawley> said:
 We have had no further communi- cation from railroad officials. The swtchmen have been fair in their re- quests.
 ''We want an advance of six cents an hour in pay and the elimination of overtime and Sunday work as far as possible, and the request for double pay for overtime is in the nature of a penalty more than anything else, as we want to discourage overtime, sun day and holiday work.
 "We also ask for a modification of the physical requirements and age limit rules. Examinations for employment on railroads are now as rigid as those required for service in the regular army.
