It's Philip Arnold's cottage" some
one said, aud Lucile's hand went to
her heart. 1t was their cottage
hers and Philip's-that was burning,
the home that was TO have been hers,
that she had planned from the begin
ming She flung on her clothes, sob
binS a little under her breath, 1t
seemed 70 her that II that CottGge
burned, all Of her happiness would
burn with it. She ran out Into no
street and followed the crowd. The
people who saw her whispered among
themselves. She was to marry him
and live IN the cottage" At last she
came to the gate through which she
had passed hat day with Philip.
There was a dense crowd In the yard,
tramping the tender grass, crushing
the life out Of the crOcuseS and tulips
that she and Philip had planted IN
the garden beds. For a moment she
shut her eyes, afraid to look. When
she opened them she saw that the
little house a intact. Behind 1t
the flames shot up, making that
dreadful glow against the sky that
she had seen from her window. The
one fire engine was busy, with its
hose playing on the burning heap.
Lucille turned to the man nearest
her, Then It was not our COTTAGE"
she gasped.
NO." he answered, 1T was just the
little stable and the leftover building
material back of 1t. But the cottage
would have gone If Philip had not
worked so hard to save It."
Then out of the crowd Lucille saw
some n coming toward her. 1t WAS

the w%hiteness Of her evening gown.
"Oh, Lucille" she said, what a
dreadful thing it would have been

Lucille felt that she must get to
Philip at once and tell him that there
was no place in the whole world like
the little house.
1t seemed to her that there had
never been anything as beautiful as
the cheap rugs and the muslin hang
ings and the prints on the wall. But

had seemed to her when she thought
she was to lose it; and presently they

SURPRISE IN GRAFT CASES
Testimony Of |. c. Engineer Knocks

Chicago, Ill.-Trial of the Illinois
Central railroad ST. 800, 000 graft case
was started when the preliminary eX.
animation of Frank B. Hartman, for.
mer general manager; John NJ. Taylor,
former general storekeeper, and Chas.
L. Ewing, former general su%perintend-
ent Of the railroad, was opened before
Municipal Judge Mancha Brugge-

The alliance Of the state, which is

heavy body blow in the calling to the
witness stand Of a man whose identity
as a witness had been kept secret I'M
til the opening Of the case and whose
testimony on the stand connected the
names of three defendants and OF the
late Ira G.. Rawn, formerly yfce-presi-
dent Of the Illinois Central and later
president of the MOnon road; j. E.
Baker, former assistant superintend.
ent Of machinery, and William Rem

turing Company. The witness was

gineer on the road, who was a partner
Of Henry c. Osterman in the organi-

Among the statements Of Reuther
were declarations that all the officials
mentioned had been presented with

MOVING PICTURE OF POLITICAL
POW-WOWS OF LAST FEW DAYS

1t is said that Bryson Blair wanted
to see Orson Adams; and it is under
stood that he rounded up some of
the leaders here for believing that
they could do without support from
Mr.. Adams in the coming campaign
Blair said they did not know what
they were talking about; that when
1t came to a genuine political cam
paign, Adams was equal to half
dozen ordinary politicians.
Blair did not like it at all that
Adams had resigned from any par
ticipation in the coming campaigns.
He berated, so it is said, those who
thought their individual leadership
would compensate for the loss of Mr..
Adams.
Then, too, there was some talk
about knowing what to do for pa
per for the standpatters and the old
guard. They somehow could not
keep a correct line on their alleged
party organ. 1t was moving in cir
cles, and one day IL would be with
Dr. Work and the standpatters and
the next day with key Stevens. the
Pueblo Chieftain and Merle ID. Vim
cent.
Senator DeLong was called upon
to pour oil on the waters with one OF
his Sunny Jim speeches; but the wat
er was running high in the breakers.
and not much was accomplished.
There is to be another conference.
and a message from Guggenheim and
Bill Stapleton of the Denver Repub-
lican is expected to be received. so
that the faint hearts will stand up
and be counted without nearly 50
much wavering.
Altogether there was much talk in
the hours of yesterday and last night
on politics with the big chiefs from
Delta and Montrose.

Register Blair and Census Emu
merator Baird left for home this
morning.
During yesterday several big pow
vows were held, the principal topic,
it is said, being the question whether
the party in western Colorado shall
be allied with the insurgents or to
stand with Guggy.
OF course, Edwin Price would have
to vote for the standpatters. While
he is under no great obligation to
Senator Guggenheim for his appoint
ment to his fourth term as postmas-
ter the most potent influence brought
to bear to secure him that position
being Darwin p. Kingsley, president
of the New York Life, still he would
not want to offend Mr.. Guggenheim.
Edwin did not say much in the
conference.-the never does. He is
one of your quiet ones, who does not
say anything which will give any
direct line on his thoughts.
Senator DeLong did not again re-
fer to Senator Guggenheim regard
ing that spewing incident. That is
sort of a tender sport for the sena-
tor. and he hates to have anyone
refer to it more than half dozen
times. If you don't believe us, ask
the senator, some time quietly,
whether he ever said it.
But the joke of the big squeeze be-
ing present in the city is that some
of the lesser lights were not called
into the conference. n. n. Smith was
looking sort O. blue this morning
when reference was made to the con-
ference in his presence.
Two or three times today DR..
Thadd Parker, the county chairman,
and Commissioner Secor have been
comforting, together; but they give
no one an opportunity to ask them
any questions.
The daily sentinel., 1910-06-17

to get him out of the way 1t would
also be inferred that he has been
tried on this charge before as in his
mental wanderings he would occas-
ionally announce that he would not
answer any more questions until he
had been instructed to do so by the
court. While he had no money when
he was found he had a check book
and promissory note, which would
indicate that he was not entirely out
of funds. At times he would be
haunted by the fear that the police
were trying to prove him insane and
he would beg them to tell his rela-
tives that he was not insane but had
taken one drink of whisky and then
started for home.
He spoke frequently of Pittsburg,
Philadelphia, Denver and other large
cities but could not be prevailed upon
to state where he was going now. He
also had the impression that he was
being followed by two private detec-
tives.
One switchman in particular will
be glad that the man has been placed
behind the bars as he received a
fright last night which will take him
a long time to get over. He observed
a figure crawling silently over the
tracks toward where he was sitting.
When he got within a few yards of
him the figure suddenly raised up
and emitted hair-raising shrek. 1t
is not necessary to state that the man
who was witness to this did not
wait to see where the figure disap-
peared to.
Sheriff Schrader will make an at
tempt to locate some of his relatives
before any action is taken.
He is confined at present in the
city jail.

CRAzED STRANGER TERR|F|ES LOCAL
SW|TCHMAN AND IS ARRESTED
[By Associated Press !

Officers w. c. Herrmann'and Chas.
Hayes last night made the arrest of a
man in the railroad yards on a charge
of insanity. From papers in the
possession of the man it was found
that his name is Benjamin Quinlan
and it was CLEANED that he was a
brother of 7. j. Quinlan, a prominent
grocer in Clairsville, Ohio. In ap-
pearance he is a man of middle age,
well educated and neatly and com
fortably dressed. The arrest was
made about II o clock last night.
He was seen ON the streets several
times yesterday and the day before
but there were no signs of any thing
radically wrong or violent in his ac-
tions except he was overheard talk
ing to himself occasionally and SEEM
ed from his peculiar actions TO be
slightly under the influence of drink
or dope. Two successive nights he
was seen waiting at the depot at the
time of arrival of ID. & X. G. No. D
and he told the depot policeman that
he was expecting a brother.
At about 1880 last night switch
man observed him crawling on his
hands and knees about the railroad
yards and once or twice he had mar
row escapes from being run over. A
switchman demonstrated with him,
thinking he was perhaps simply intox-
icated, and asked him to leave the
yards and go home, when he refused
to do this the police were called and
after scuffle the man was quieted
and gotten to the police station.
1t is evident from his talk that he
has worried over the question of his
insanity in times past as he seems to
be laboring under the impression
that some of his relatives and doctors
are trying to prove him insane and
he feels that it is personal desire
