"The Man on the sox. /"

/ tHE tHteN W NNN -@$-
''Ihe Man on the Box" was an anus
ing comedy OF almost farcial misehance
hen Henry Il. Dixey acted ii for two
seasons in New York aud on tour, and it
ought to be no less amusing when John
Meehan and a special company present it
At Chandler Music hall Friday evening,
sept. 80. The hook by Harold McGrath
has been widely read, and the play fol-
lows the lines Of the story very closely.
The box Of the title is the box Of a car
riage that was waiting to take Miss Eliz
abeth Annesley home from a ball at the
British Embassy, in Washington. For
reasons OF his own, Bob Worburton, a
lieutenant Of the regular army, lately re-
signed, dons coachman's livery, spring
upon that box and obstinately fixes him
self there. The spring and the obstinacy
bring him to the police court they bring
as well many amusing consequences to
Miss Betty and her circle. Cupid, the
insinuating, even in the precincts of a
police court, speeds his arrows and barbs
each with a new complication. The sum
makes a diverting play, which is acted
lightly, swiftly and merrily.
It is a question il any play that has
been offered in recent seasons presents as
many good points for the pleasure of the
theatre-goer as does "The Man on he
Box;" for il combines comedy, farce, sem
timeHt, emotion, and bas also a slight
touch Of high class nelodrama, all OF
which, deitly intermingled by the cum
ming hand OF the dramatist, make up a
play Of absorbing interest.
"The Man on the Box" will be present
ed here by strong cast, special scenic
settings and production that is complete
to the slightest detail. Seats will be on
sale Wednesday, Sept. 2S.

TWO YOUTHS START TO
Be BANDITS; CAPTURED
Farm Boys Of 10 Hold up Auto
Party and Get 81; the
Sheriff Gets Them

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. S1.-Two
farm hands, Fred Steiger and Lyman
Ramsey, aged Is and 10, respectively,
yesterday held up and robbed four per-
sons who were driving in an -automo-
bile in the country south of here.
The victims of the robbery, which
netted the youths but 81, were Hardy
c. Mosher and wife of Chicago and M.
1. Mosher and Mrs. Ethel Allen of
this city.
Although the robbers, with drawn
revolvers, were extremely serious
about their work, the occupants of the
motor car refused to see the affair in
the same light. While the women
TESTED with the amateur desperadoes
about the cruel business they were en-
gagged in the men pulled some small
change from their pockets and handed
it to the holdup men.
No attempt was made to search the
passengers of the car. Both robbers
were armed with revolvers of huge
size, purchased here last Saturday,
and wore red handkerchiefs as masks.
Ramsay also adopted a pair of auto
mobile goggles to aid his disguise.
A posse of farmSrs captured the
bandits" shortly after the robbery
had taken place. County authorities
say the youths told them they had
planned an invasion of the south, in
tending to commit robberies enough to
pay their expenses and go to Wyoming
to establish a permanent haunt.

DUNANT, FOUNDER OF RED
CROSS SOCIETY, is DEAD
Noted Swiss Passes Away at a
Health Resort

GENEVA, Switzerland, Oct. 81
Henri Dunant, founder of the Interna-
tional Red Cross society, died last night
at Heiden, a health resort
Henri Dunant was of Swiss birth and
lived in Geneva. At the battle of Sol
ferino June "a, 1859, he witnessed the
needless suffering and loss of life re-
sulting from days of neglect to care for
the wounded. Realizing that such con-
ditions need not exist, he conceived the
idea of pledging the nations to regard
and protect as neutral all sick and
wounded complaints and all persons
giving them succor. He elaborated his
ideas, and through the cooperation of
the Swiss federal council brought about
an international conference in Geneva
in 1868. Sixteen governments were rep
resented. This was followed by the
Geneva convention of August 8, 1864,
which adopted nine articles of agree
ment 'for the ameliorating of the con-
dition of wounded in armies in the
field
These articles were signed by twelve
governments, and the signatory powers
have since reached forty A uniform
flag made of red cross on a white
ground was adopted as a compliment
to the Swiss confederation whose ma
tional flag is the reverse.

WALL HOLDS FOREMOST
RANK IN RAILWAY FIGHT
Stockton Mali Indicates Reasons
Why Candidate for Commits
sion Should Succeed

The California senate the other day
passed a remarkable resolution. Il
was introduced by Senator Caminetti
the astute statesman of Amador coun-
ty, and while it specifically condemned
one branch of the present Republican
administration in this state, its decla'
rations were so VIGOROUSLY true thai
not even the most devoted servant OF
the machine in the senate dared object
and it went through unanimously. Ref
erence was made to it in the ASsoci
ated Press dispatches the other day
but it is worth reading in full Here
it is:
whereas, This senate March 90,
1909, adopted the following resolu-
ton:
Resolved, By the senate of the
state of California, That we de-
plore-the raise in railroad rates by
the railroads whose terminals are
in this state and also the change in
rates charged by Wells, Fargo &
Co, and we recommend to the rail-
road commission of this state the
fullest investigation of this subject
of railroad and Wells Fargo rates,
in order to conserve the interests
of the people of the state of Cali
fornia before the interstate COM
mission, the tribunal empowered by
the laws OF IIl0 idIiQ " COuSloCl anu
regulate matters of this kind; and
Whereas, No investigation as rec
commended in said resolution has
been held by the railroad commits
sion of this state since the adoption
of said resolution; be it
Resolved That this senate de-
plores the failure on the part of the
railroad commission of the state to
conduct such investigation and
again urges action by said board on
the subject matter of said resolu-
ton
However unwillingly the senate may
have "deplored' the condition which
Senator Caminetti described, the peo'
pie of this state have strong emotions
which are genuine. There is just one
way in which these deplorable condi-
lions may be corrected, and that is tc
put the railroad commission into the
control of the party which for years
has led the fight against railroad DOM
ination in California.
The practical application of the sem
ate's resolution in the counties from
San Joaquin south is to elect w. c.
Wall of Stockton as railroad commits
sioner. He is in hearty sympathy with
Theodore Bells determination to free
the state from railroad rule, and his
long experience in transportation work
fits him in a peculiar way to serve the
people ficiently.--Stockton Mail.

BLAMES.STATES
FOR RATE FIGHTS
The Rock Island Traffic Manager
SAYS Commissions Cause
Trouble with Shippers
HEARING is NEARLY ENDED
Officials Intimate BeTef That the
Roads Only Seek to Increase
Their Revenues
ASSOCIATED Press)

CHICAGO, Oct. 31-Stanley H.
Johnson, assistant freight traffic man
ager of the Rock Island lines, declared
before the interstate commerce com
mission today that certain state rail-
road commissions are causing most OF
the trouble between the shippers and
the railroads.
Johnsons statement was made while
he was being questioned by Commits
sioners Lane and Clark, who intimat-
ed their belief that the railroads are
not satisfied with regulation because
1t limits their power to increase reve-
nues.
The hearing of the proposed adj
vances in rates will be concluded to-
morrow and the evidence will then be
reviewed in Washington before a de-
cision is announced.
In conducting the examination of
Johnson, Commissioner Lane delved
into the action of the railroads before
the various state railroad commissions
why did you not get UP to this
rate before these interfering commits
sions came into existence?" asked
Commissioner Lane.
CALLS THEM EMBARRASSING
Estate commissions are an embar-
rassment, and all the trouble between
the shippers and railroads could be
adjusted in a satisfactory manner If
the different state commissions were
out of the way" replied Johnson.
you are not satisfied with regula-
ton because it limits your power to
increase your revenue" said Commits
sioner Lane, and you were not sat
isfied with non-regulation prior to 1905
because you said that led to bank
ruptcy. Now what will satisfy you?
I.o1 rNx.t1Y1 ifxr IN eynf
the rates. yet your own and other
roads were placed in the hands of re-
ceivers Now we come along"
eyes," interrupted Johnson, I'VE
might get along famously with your
honors and colleagues If we did not
have all of these state commissions to
contend with"
'Is it not a fact" asked Commits
sioner Lane, that you are laying
these burdens on the interstate COM
merce commission which were laid
upon you by the state commissions? ?"
CONFLICT FOR CONTROL
'T don't see it that way" replied
the witness. There Is a conflict be-
tween the state and federal bodies to
control the railroads. If the re-
sponsibility were not divided 1t would
be simplified."
ten. DlChinSOn, OF COUNSEL lot Inc
railroad, took the witness in hand at
this juncture.
did you advance all commodity
rates?" asked Dickinson.
1--WE did not"
did you advance any class rate?"
I'VE did not"
'Why were advances made on the
particular articles mentioned?"
ITO divide the traffic into three
classes. First, class rate; second, to
list slight movings as light weight
commodities, and third, to list the
heavy commodities.
Excepting grain and coal, none of
the heavy commodities have been adj
vanced. Generally speaking the adj
vances were made on manufacturing
articles. The increase affects but

JURIES GET SAME
RIGHTS As JUDGE
U. S. Supreme Court Says They
May Listen to Arguments
During Trial
MAY READ THE NEWSPAPERS
Highest Tribunal Rules That They
Need Not Be Locked up in
Murder Cases
MAY READ THE NEWSPAPERS
ASSOCIATED Press,

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.--A mans
constitutional rights are not necessar-
lily violated because jurymen trying
him on a charge of murder are allowed
to separate and to read newspapers
during the trial. It was held today by
the supreme court of the United States.
The court held similarly in regard to
the refusal of a judge>to send the jury
out of the court room during argu-
ments on the admission of evidence.
Furthermore the court laid down the
rule that the act of requiring the ac-
cused to put on coat, alleged to have
been worn when the crime charged
was committed, did not amount to re-
curing the prisoner to testify against
himself"
These points were made in the de-
cision of the dourt in refusing TO IN
terfere with the sentence of life i'm
prisonment imposed by the federal cir
cult court of western Washington upon
James H Holt on a charge of having
murdered Henry e. Johnson In Fort
Worden barracks, Washington. In an
nouncing the opinion of the court
Justice Holmes says that the trial
Judge had gone to .he limit in the mat
ter of his discretion at the trial, but
he had committed no reversible error.
JURORS ARE UPHELD
mo doubt the more conservative
course" said Justice Holmes, is to
exclude the jury during the considera-
ton of the admissibility of confessions,
but there is force in the judges view
that IL the jurors are fit to play the
part assigned to them by our law they
will be able to do what a judge has to
do every time he tries a case on the
facts, and we cannot say that he was
wrong in thinking that the men before
him were competent for their task"
In regard to the jury separating dur
ing the trial Justice Holmes said that
II the mere opportunity for prejudice
and corruption was to raise pre-
sumption that they exist it would be
hard to maintain jury trials.
AS to the coat incident the Justice
made the remark that the principle
underlying this objection would forbid
a jury even to look at prisoner and
compare his features with photo
graph.
