URGE RECLAMATION OF FLATS

Questions of interest to the residents
of the eastern section of the city were
discussed a. last nights meeting of the
Lincoln Park Citizens Association In
the Church of the Nativity. The as
ISOLATION went on record as unalterabIy

The report recited that the committee
had studied the various forms of gov
eminent to which the District of CO.

organization. Your committee uses the
word subjected advisedly, inasmuch as
the several forms of government under
which the District has existed have
been thrust upon us by the Congress.

own choosing.
The committee does not think It well
in this report to go into the merits of
lie several forms of government which
the District has had, nor the several
forms of government which have been
proposed, being convinced that the pur-
pose of the resolution can be better fur
thered at this time by emitting so to do:
and. being persuaded that If any change
at all is made at this time, II will be at
the suggestion of President Taft who is
already committed to the so-called Rey-

THE DOWN TURN
 OF THE MARKET
An Experiment by Bull SpecuIators Abandoned.

New York. April 2.-The bears got the upper hand today in the contest which has been waged on each suc- cessive day this week in the stock market The professional trading ele- ment on the floor of the stock ex- change has been dist1Istful of the rise in prices and has felt for the top" constantly by putting out short contracts. Previous to today they have been forced to cover shorts later at a loss, driven in by the substantial resistance of the market to the de- pression. The trend of the market was not determined until after the first hour. the absorptive power being still manifest at that time when large selling orders seemed to be met by almost equally heavy buying. After a period of quietude the market be- gan to recede on comparatively light transactions, thus demonstrating the withdrawal of support.
 Bonds were regular. The total sales amounted to s5,336. 900. United States bonds remained unchanged.

SENSATIONAL HANGING
 OF MONTANA MURDERER
He Pronounced the Crowd Something New in That Line.

Helena, April 2.-The Frederick Le- beau hanging at Kalispell today was probably attended by more sensational incidents than any other execution in the history of Montana. Just before Lebeau mounted the scaffold he re- moved his shoes. passing a facetious remark to the crowd.
 Then, with the rope around his neck. he made a speech as follows: Gen tlemen, you may have seen lots of hangings. but you never saw one like this" Addressing State Senator Thos. D. Long. who acted as his attorney. he said: MT Long, will you shake hands with me from the top2''
 Mir. Long mounted the scaffold and complied with the condemned mans wishes The cap was then pulled down and Lebeau dropped seven feet, the crowd hearing the snap of the mans neck.
 Lebeau went into a frenzy during the reading of the death warrant, pro- testing against the word murderer. .' declaring he was no murderer and i'm ploring the sheriff to desist from read ing.

recorded at the previous session. There were declines at the start of
 s Ghc to k6%c due to the heavy tone of the European markets, par ticularly that at Liverpool, which was bearishly affected by unexpectedly liberal exports for the week from Ar gentina and Australia Leading bulls gave the market good support early in the day and firmer tone soon developed which became stronger as the session advanced. More crop damage reports were received, which helped strengthen the market, but the chief reason for buoyancy was the constantly increasing demand for cash grain. From $L19S. the low point at the opening. the May delivery ad- vanced to S1.21, while July sold up from s1.07s to s1.0S%. There was some reaction late in the day owing to profit taking, but the market, with the exception of the December de- livery, in which there was very little trading, closed firm. Final quotations on May was s1.20% and July $1.0SB.
 The corn market was helped mate rially by the bulge in wheat and by the popular bullish sentiment preva- lent in the grain markets generally. The close was firm with net gains of hc to AG%c. May being at 67Ac and July at 661z 9%c.

Boston, Mass, April 2.-The opera. "Salome,r which the Manhattan Grand Opera company intended to present at the Boston theater next Thursday, will not be given because of protests from Gov. Draper. Mayor Hubbard, Bishop Lawrence of the Episcopal chuch, Vicar General Patterson of the Roman Cath olic church, former Governor Curtis Guild and other leading citizens.
 The clergy objected tO the opera on moral grounds and many of them con- sider that a presentation of "Salome" next Thursday would be a proclamation of Holy Week.
 Mayor Hubbard notified the lessees of the Boston theater, Frohman & liar ris. today that if the Manhattan com pany persisted in its intention of pro- ducing "Salome" he would invoke such power as he possessed to stop the play.

INDEFINITE REPORTS
 OF BIG ORE FINDS
ARIZONA NORTHERN CONTINUES TO GIVE UP ITS RICH
 GOLD ORE.
Army of Prospectors Still MobiIizine at SsIome-H. B. King Goes Again This Morning.

Salome. AriZ., April 2.-(Special)-- The Salome bonanza continues to inn prove. Some of the richest ore yet taken out of the Glory Hole was re- moved yesterday. The Glory Hole is now about twtnty- five feet square and beyond doubt the richest mineralized area of equal size ever opened up in the west.
 A number of prominent mining ge- ologists have visited the camp during the last few days. Dr. Waldemer Lind gren of the United States geological survey being among the number While his position with the government pre- vents him from reporting upon the property. he stated to President Jno. w. Sharpe that he was more than pleased with the showings. which opin- ion is concurred in by all who have seen the property during the last week. About fifteen men are being employed on the bonanza and the Hillside groups and more are being put on as fast as accommodations can be provided
 Everything has to be packed the last mile into camp. but President Sharpe has a force of about twenty men work
 
 nanZa and within three weeks supplies can be hauled direct from Salome to the camp. The road has already been shortened three miles by the new Sa- lome cutoff completed today. A box car loaded with baggage was set off at Salome yesterday which is an indi- cation of the great influx of people by rail. and twenty-six burro and wag on outfits passed through town yes terday en route to the gold fields. / A number of new strikes are re- ported within d radius of three miles of the bonanza, but I have been too busy to verify them, although I have seen mornings which I should say run at least S400 per ton from McDonald's, Mitchelrs and several other prospects. Talk about the Salome dance, Salome gold is certainly creating as much ex- citement, and is more attractive to most eyes than Mary Garden at her best.

HARSH WORDS BYDEMOCRATS Applied to the Payne Bill In Its
 Present Form 4 RIOT OF IMPERFEcT|0Ns
The Only Good Thing the Opposition Can See In It Is the Certainty That It Will Undermine the Re- publican Party.

Washington, April 2-That the Payne bill is filled with riotous inn perfections designed to cover up the extravagances of the republican ad- ministration; that it does not redeem the party pledges. and that it has sounded the death knell of the domi- nant party, were some of the criti- cisms passed upon the measure by the democrats in the house today.
 An interesting feature of the de- bate was the speech of Pablo OcampO de Leon, the Philippine commissioner. who attacked the provisions for free trade with the Philippine Islands. From the far south exactly opposite views were expressed regarding pro tectiOn. Mir. Ransdell of Louisiana pleading for it on behalf of the in dustries of his state, while MT. Spight of Mississippi and MT. Clayton of Alabama wanted free lumber. free hides, free boots and shoes, free bag ging and free cotton ties. From the republicans came suggestions of a permanent tariff commission and none seemed entirely satisfied with the bill.

4 CANADIAN STRIKE

Ordered in- Spite of an Agreement of Week Ago.

|. Winnipeg, April 2-President Sher- mans order to the miners to strike was surprise to the mine owners. At a recent conference at Mcleod an agree ment was reached by the miners and operators which was submitted to a vote of the miners. The referendum carried by a good ma aioritY. The Crowsnest Pass Coal company. which withdrew from last weeks conference, made an agreement with it's men more favorable to them than that reached by the conference.
 When this became known Sherman endeavored to equalize the schedules but without success, hence the break ing of the agreement with the operat- ors. The mines at Fernie and Michel are not affected by Sherman's order and are in operation.

Some progress is making tow ard better things in iron and steel, all though conditions as a whole remain very unsettled. Continued uncertainty as to prices in some finished lines is the chief drawback and widely circu- lated reports of further price cutting are having a depressing effect"

T MAY BE UNLAWFUL
But if so the Laws Should Be Changed to Put Into the Hands of Labor This Effective Instrument of Self Protection.

New York, April 2.-President Gompers, of the American Federation oI Labor defended the use of the boycott today before the New York Council of the National Civic Fedora ti1n. Addresses by Professor Frede- rick J. Stimson, of Harvard, and Professor John Bates Clarks. of Co., lumbia, stirred him to speak.

If this an nouncement regarding the stove com pauy had been printed once, it would be fair to assume it was a matter of news, but printed in every number for years with the announced inten- ton of doing so in all newspapers possible for the purpose of coercing the stove company, most jurymen would decide that those facts showed a primary intention to modest the stove company
 Gompers said in reply, T am not lawyer and the quibblings of the law yers as to the legality or illegality of certain acts by labor organizations are not for me to deal with.
 But as to what is fundamentally right, I think I am qualified to speak If the laws do not properly safeguard the fundamental rights of the labor CT then they should be changed. know that labor has the right to or Sanize to protect what il possesses, which is the power to work or to give or refuse it's patronage"

A Denial by Official Organ that There
 Will be Royal Reception.

Rome, April 2.-The Tribuna prints an official denial that King Victor Emanuel will meet Mir. Roosevelt, or take him to Messina- This seems to be confirmed by what the soverign said to Ernest Bicknell, national di- rector of the American Red Cross, whom he received today.
 The king told Bicknell that he was going to Messina, but that he could not decide when he would do so, as it was very difficult for him to leave Rome. The king, during the audience was most affable to Bicknell and told him Italy never would forget the gen. erosity of America during the earth quake.
