oeipts.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Aug 1.-THE Great
Northern railway is the only northwestern
line that shows a falling off in earnings
for the last fiscal year, ending June 30,
1909. The decrease in gross earnings from
freight and passenger traffic amounts to
more than Sl,ooO.00o. There was decrease
in operating expenses of over 100000
The hard times of last year caused the
falling off in business during the fore part
Of the fiscal year. and while the last six
months were among the best the road ever
experienced they were not enough te
bring the earnings up to the standard of
1908. The total operating revenue for 1903
amounted to $50 s65S, ,5sS. a decrease OF 1885,
600 from 1eOS. The revenue is divided as

BOSTON, Mass, Aug. 4.-The beginning

coming week was postponed Unexpectedly
tonight from the hour of midnight to S
o'clock tomorrow morning. All preparations
had been made by the defending. or Blue,
army to resist an attack, and even to take
the initiative in action. There was much
disappointment when Brigadier General
William A. Pew, jr., in command of the de-
tenders, got word late tonight that, on ac-
count Of the failure of one of the EN-
emy's" transports to arrive, the entire
maneuvers had been postponed for eight
hours. The announcement came to BriGa-
dier General Pew's headquarters from Ma
jor General Leonard Wood. commander Of
the Department of the East and the chief
umpire in the war game.
General Wood had Learned from Major
General Tasb Ar II, Bliss df the regular
army, who commands the invading force,
that one Of his transports" was unexpect-
edy missing, and after consulting with the
other umpires Wood decided to call all the
proceedings off until o'clock Sunday

Indian Takes Notion to
Run Uncle Sans Business

David Bearheart, an Omaha Indian In
Thurston county. conceived the idea the
other day that the rural mail boxes in
his immediate locality We're not equally
distributed and undertook TO straighten
out the matter by removing a number of
them TO another locality on the same route
As a consequences he got into contro-
yersy with the postoffice department but
escaped with an admonition that he was
not the whole thing and that the removal
OF postoffice boxes was strictly the pro-
vince OF the department. and that the de-
partment was very jealous OF its prerO-
gatves.
David Bearheart meant well. He had
noticed that in one particular locality on
a wheel placed horizontally on post at
a road crossing the rural boxes were un-
duly crowded. while down the road mile
or two. there was but one mail box on the
wheel. 30 he proposed to equHlize things
by taking three or four OF the boxes faHtn
Omaha daily bee., 1909-08-15

the crowded wheel and putting them where
they were needed more.
David did not take into consideration the
convenience Of the owners Of the boxes.
In fact David was regarded in that locality
as sort OF dart eccentric OF the harm
less, Happy Hooligan variety.
When the pOstoffice inspectors went up
10 investigate the matter David freely ad-
United that he had made the change and
why he had done So thinking he was doing
good turn.
1t was conelusively shown that Colonel
Bearheart was honest in his endeavor, and
as there was no wrong or malicious In
tent the case against him was not pushed
and he insisted on being permitted TO re-
turn the mail boxes to their original loca-
lions, promising to let them alone in the
future and that he would absolutely alb
stain from butting into pOstOffies matters

seriously hurt. Engineer Meads. who was
I'm charge Of the motors and who was
giving them trial when the explosion
occurred was not seriously hurt. In his
effort to stop the motors he was burned
about the arms and face slightly.
The exact cause of the explosion is still
a matter of conjecture, but IT would appear
benzine supply which was being taken on
while the motors were working.
The accident caused a lively stir in the
city and there were all sorts OF rumors,
all tending to exaggerate the extent Of
the casualties. One report. which gained
wide circulation, was TO the effect that
number of workmen were imprisoned in
the submarine and were perishing by
asphyxiation. This with other conflicting
reports, was denied this evening by Simeon
Lake of Bridgeport Conn, who is supervis-
ing the construction OF four submarines
for the Russian government
Mr.. Lake made a thorough inspection OF
the Dragon after the accident and declares
that no one was killed outright, though
one of the laborers died from his Injuries

Of the workmen were hurled into the water
by the explosion, but were quickly picked
up by boats which came TO their rescue.

HASKELL COMES INTO COURT
Governor of Oklahoma Seeks to Have
Indictments Quashed.
WILL FILE MOTION MONDAY
Charge IL Conspiracy with Five
Others TO swindIe Creek Indians
Out of Lots In Mus
kOgee.

MUSKOGEE, Okl., Aug. IA motion to
quash the indictment against Governor
Charles N. Haskell OF Oklahoma and five
other defendants, charged with conspiracy
to defraud the government and the Creek
Indians in the Muskogee town lot cases,
will be filed In the federal court here next
Monday, according to a statement made
tonight by Pliny L. Soper. attorney for
Governor Haskell.
Mr.. Soper ntimated that the petition TO
quash the indictments would contain sensa-
tional charges against the government at
torneys who secured the indictments and
the grand Jurors who returned them.
Monday will be the last day of grace
for filing the motion to quash the indict-
ments. Intense interest in the prosecution
of the cases. which, it is said, has now
reached crisis, has been aroused here,
where all the defendants reside, and are
wealthy and well known citizens.
The petition of the defendants was to
have been filed today. but IL is said the
action was postponed to await advices
from attorneys of the defendants who are
noe I'm Washington.
H. L. Weinland. a Boynton, okl., banker
and W. c. Franklin, his attorney, filed
charges today against County Commis-
Charles Vann, alleging misconduct in
office and asking that they be ousted
| from office. Nepotism is one of the
| charges set forth.
Suits VIII Not he Dropped.
WASHINGTON, Aug 1.-THE govern
ment will not drop its suits against Gov
ernor Haskell and others involved in the
Muskogee town lot cases, and any idea
that such action was ever contemplated
is absolutely absurd and unreasonable"
This emphatic statement was made to-
night by NJ. L. Mott of Muskogee, Okl
attorney for the Creek Indian nation, and
an important factor in the prosecution OF
the Haskell cases. Mr.. Mott has been Co
operating with District Attorney Gregg
and Special Counsel Rush. who is prose
cutting the cases against Mr.. Haskell
IAN immense amount of money has beer
expended by the government in working
up the cases and they VIII be pushed tc
the limit, in my opinion. The report that
the Department of Justice would take
favorable action on the motion to quasi
the indictments, II charges against ths
conduct OF some of the departments sub
ordinates are withdrawn. is about as pre-
posterous a proposition as 1 ever heard
Such action would be disgraceful. TO say
the least OF IT, and you can make this
point as emphatic as you please. l know
the department is determined to prosecute
the cases vigorously. and this is evidenced
by the fact that Attorney General Wick
ersham has personally interested, himself
in the prosecution OF the cases.

yesterday, Saturday afternoon. at $3.50
around kyoto, Osaka, Lake Biwa and

people were killed or injured.
Nagoya, with a population OF more than
$4,000, and one of the principal cities in
Japan, located 170 miles west Of Toxic, was
badly damaged. Details are meager be-
cause of the interruption OF telegraphic
communication with the cities most af-
fected. Twenty-one deaths and seventy
people injured has thus far been reported.
one-fourth of the Shiga prefecture sus
tanned considerable damage. Mount Isukl
at the north end of Lake Biwa, an extinct
volcano, is reported to have collapsed near
the top. The shock was slight in Toxic.
