CONDENSED FACTS
 CONCERNING RENO
Nevada Town Where Big Fight Will Take Place Has Population Of About Fifteen Thousand Persons
 and Divorce Colony.

For the past decade, but more es- pecially since the alteration of the South Dakota divorce laws abolished Sioux Falls, that State. as "divorce colony, Reno has attracted attention as an oasis in the desert to actresses and others who find the divorce laws of Nevada very accommodating in an emergency. The divorce colony of Reno numbers about 200 persons on an average, mostly women, who are living there for six months in order to establish a residence in the state and secure the benefits of the divo, ce proceedings.
 The people of Reno look upon all this as very disagreeable but un- avoidable condition of affairs. They are hoping that one day will see a da,vning of new era ill Nevada, when the stigma of being a resort for the matrimonially misfitted will be lifted.
 In all other respects Reno is an or dinary town. very pretty, continually 'bathed in the pure, rare air of the high attitudes. a center of the New ada stock-raising industry, and with fertile expanses of land sloping 10 it on either side.
 lis population is cosmopolitan. There are many young men who have gone there from the east in quest of their fortunes. They are sober, law abiding and industrious. There are a number of Indians wandering about the streets looking at the sights. There are some Japanese merchants and laborers and Chinese.
 The city enjoys good police protee- tion, but that has been one of the big problems For the city has growr rapiy. In 1909 Reno was a mere village of 5000 inhabitants.
 Its hotel accommodations, so far as they go, are adquate, although the . hostelries will be unable to cope witE the crowds that will swoop down upor the city for the big fight. But therz are broad, expansive spaces where tents may be pitched, and these hastil, pitched abodes will accommodate tht . witnesses at the big championship rat tie.
 Reno is the seat of the Nevada stat! University. and the State Hospital fol ! Mental Diseases. It may be reache. by the Southern Pacific, the Virgini; and Truckee and the Nevada, Califor mia and Oregon railroads.
 In Reno one loses sight sometime of the sordid things of life-except possibly, in matters of divorce. Ih mountains, the immense sense of big ness, the pure air, all combine to in , spire one with the majesty of natur and the insignificance of man.
 Viewed from a distance, the long thin fingers of snow stretching dow from the white-capped mountain
 seem to hold it pearl in the gras
 of the Infinite.

MAYOR TELLS HOW
He ENDED STRIKE
Makes Company Run Cars, Orders
Men To Refrain From Violence and
Refuses To Stand for Armed
Strike Breakers.
BY w. C. SHEPHERD.

TRENTON. y. j.. March 19.-Then-
ton is Il short suburban trolley ride
distant from Philadelphia, and when
the car strike broke out in the CITY
OF Brotherly Love the street car men
in Trenton struck, too.
All the country knows what Mayor
John Il. Reyburn of Philadelphia did
ON behalf of the company in the Phil
adelphia strike. It's time II heard OF
what Walter Madden, mayor OF Tren-
ten, n. j.. did
Madden stopped the Trenton strike;
Reyburn only helped the Philadelphia
strike along.
Madden told the correspondent OF
The Times how he handled the Tren-
ton trouble.
Il was elected by the public" said
Madden. "As soon as the strike broke
out I saw ii was my duty 10 help the
public. I had no right To interfere be-
tween the men and the company, but
the welfare OF the public | serve was
in my hands
II determined at the very first to
worry only about the public, the third
party in the strike. OF course that
might have helped the strikers, too,
because they belong to the public.
LAS soon as all the cars were stop
ped, | sent notice to the men that
there must be no rioting." continued
Madden. Then | sent word to Man
ager Hurley of the street railway com
pany that ne must run his cars or that

idle car. Hurley had refused TO arbi-
trate with his men. but | did not con-
slider that any of my business.
Mayor Reyburn in Philadelphia re-
fused to permit arbitration.
"The company asked me TO swear
i'm special officers" continued Madden.

TAFT TO KEEP OUT
OF CANNON AFFAIR
This Is None of My Business He
Tells Statesmen-Will See Cana
dian Officials on Tariff.

ROCHESTER, n. Y, March 10
Middle OF the road" Is the position
President Taft assumed today in re
gard to the Cannon-insurgent struggle
at Washington. Before leaving Roches
ter for Albany the president dictated
replies to a huge sheaf Of kilograms
from Washington. Both inSurgent and
Cannon leaders appealed TO the presi.
dent by wire to do something to re-
ieve the situation. To every request
that he interfere the president sent an
answer that stripped of its polite
phrases, meant:
This is none of my business"
Having washed his hands OF that
affair. the president took up again his
study OF the Canadian tariff situation,
which will be threshed out at Albany
tonight. The president, w. S. Fielding,
Canadian minister of finance and prob
ably Earl Gray will take part in the
tariff conference. The vexed question
OF the French tariff was finally settle
today when the president ordered the
proclamation issued admitting France
to the minimum tariff.
New York politics took on rather
strenuous aspect today. The presi-
dent, Gov Hughes and a number of
New York state leaders will get to-
gether at Albany late today or early
tomorrow, For the good of the party.
The results may be startling.
The president left Rochester in his
special train this morning for Albany.

NAVIGATION OPENS.

PORT HURON, Mich, March 49,
Navigation opened here yesterday
when three grain vessels, which had
wintered at Point Edward, steamed
from Point Edward TO Sarnia, where
they will be fitted out. The steamers
were compelled to remain ut Point
Edward all during the winter months,
with their cargoes Of grain aboard,
owing TO the fact that cars could not
be secured with which to move the
grain. Another steamer that wintered
at the point is now at the elevator
unloading its cargo. It is probable
that the majority of these boats will
leave the first or latter part of next
week for up-lake ports for their first
cargoes.

WASHINGTON, March 19.-The sun

According to the terms OF the truce.
the engagement was TO be resumed at
five minutes past twelve today with
the speakers decision on the point or
order maze against the Norris resolu-
ton as the signal.
Under the protection of the white
flag the opposing leaders were at
tempting to frame a permanent treaty
OF peace. The bolted doors OF the room
wherein the pow-wow was held gave
fourth low rumblings as from the
sonorous threats OF Payne and Dwight
CT the Cannon forces, of Clark and
Underwood, Of the Democrats and of
Norris ald Madison, OF the insurgents.
Sometimes sharper, higher notes
wer heard, as from the tongues of Dali
cell, the CanDonite, or OF Murdoch,
the Norrisite. The leaders went into
the conference at 8 a. m.
Uncle Joe's" presence on the pro-
posed new and enlarged committee on
rules appeared to be the principal
obstacle in the way of compromise.
The regulars were quite willing yes
terday TO agree to the enlargement OF
the committee from three to ten as
proposed by the allies, but they in
sisted the speaker should be chairman
of that committee, as he is now chair
man of the old. The insurgents and
Democrats, on the other hand, declar-
ed the speaker should not only re-
linquish the chairmanship of the COM
mittee but he should efface himself
from the committee altogether.
This humiliation OF their leader was
too much for the Cannonites 10 swaE
low and they declared today before
the conference as sturdy as they had
last night, that before they would al
low such an indignity to be heaped
upon the speaker, they would go down
