The catalpa tree Is the slouch Of the

Change Noted.

BALTIMORE, Nd. March 7.~-Sphinx-like
silence IL still maintained in accordance
with a three-cornered agreement, by all
concerned touching the progress Of the
board of mediation composed Of Chairman
Knapp Of the Interstate Commerce COM
mission and Commissioner NELL In their eff
forts to adjust the differences between the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad and It's con-
ductors and trainmen relative to wages
and service conditions. There was today
what Is said to be a most unusual event., a
Sunday conference In connection with the
case. II was between Commissioners NELL
and representatives OF the employees and
lasted about four hours. Chairman Knapp
was prevented from coming to Baltimore
by other business. Conferences will be re-
sumed early tomorrow morning. Owing to
the pressure of other business It is said
that Chairman Knapp will leave the nego-
tiations entirely in the hands Of Mr.. NELL
for the next day or two.
While nothing specific is obtainable as
to the progress Of the work of the board
of mediation, It may be said that the pros
pect Of q peaceful settlement satisfactory
to both sides is at least as bright as 1t
was yesterday or has yet been.

MOTHER IN COURT PUSHES
SON INTO PENITENTIARY
Jury COnvicts Young Man at Bedford
Largely on Testimony She
Gives.


CREsToN, Ia, March Z,-(speclal)-D. S.
Saunders was convicted in the Thayer
county district court at Bedford last week
Of the crime OF forgery, and his mother
was the principal witness against him and
seemingly did everything in her power to
secure a penitentiary verdict for her soa.
The unusual sight of a mother working so
hard to send her son to prison reacted on
the audiences that gathered every day to
hear the trial to such an extent that a
strong sympathy for the young man sgrang
up. Sentence has not yet been passed upon
the young man. His crime, briefly out
lined by the evidence mrrc1uUed, is that
the defendant is the youngest son of Mrs.
Saunders, a widow, living near Corning.
She formerly lived on a large farm near
Lenox and when her husband died q few
years ago she was made Administrative Of
the estate, There are seven children, the
son who has been on trial being the young
est. He desired her to loan him money to
stock a farm which he wished to buy and
she refused, pleading it would be unfair to
the other children for her to do so. Later
the son attended a sale and bought a bill
OF stock, giving his note and signing his
mothers name to the note for security.
Later the note was sold to ]. r. Cooper at
Conway and when he presented the note to
Mrs. Saunders for payment she denied Civ
ing permission to use her name and
brought the charge of forgery against him.
In the meantime the son had moved 70
Cambridge, Ia. At the trial other notes
and checks were introduced by the state
which it was claimed he had forged, and
these entered largely into the jury's con-
illusions.

SOCIALISTS FIGHT POLICE
Great Demonstrations Held in Public
Park in Berlin.
GET BROKEN HEADS
Officers Are Forced 20 Use Their
sabers TO Prevent Crowd frOm
Assembling where Not
Allowed.

BERLIN. March I-Serious conflicts bo-
tween the police and socialists. involving a
lengthy list Of wounded, were the outcome
OF most impressive open air demonstration
against the suffrage bill carried out in
Berlin and the other cities Of Prussia yester.
day. It Is estimated that In Berlin alone
12O,OOO persons took part In what was called
a demonstration stroll" in various parts
Of the city.
The chief OF police at Berlin fearing
danger from the assembly Of so many
thousands in the popular park Of Treptow.
the place chosen by the socialists, forbade
a demonstration Of any kind there. But the
socialist newspaper, Vorwaerts, announced
that the manifestation would be held in
spite Of the order OF prohibition. 81 This
caused the collection OF a powerful force
OF police and gendarmes in Treptow park,
which left the remainder Of the city vlrtu-
ally ~unguarded.
The socialist leaders this morning, OBJ
serving that their plan had been frustrated,
quickly and quietly passed the word to
their followers to proceed to the other end
Of the city. These instructions were obeyed
by 10000 manifestants, who succeeded in
accomplishing the stroll almost undis-
turbed, while the others who had remained
around Treptow park came into severe col
llsion with the gendarmes and police, with
serious consequences.
The police, however, in the majority Of
the cases, acted with the utmost modera-
ton, obeying the orders to avoid as far as
possible using their arms which were Is
sued by Chief Won Jagow, who recently
had been much criticised for his severity.
1t was the provisional gendarme, who,
on this occasion. cams into the most seri-
Gus conflict with the crowds.
Until a late hour tonight all the streets
leading to the palace, the imperial chancel-
lor's residence and the Prussian parliament
were guarded by cordons OF armed police,
but no demonstrators appeared. Reports
from the provinces show, in most cases,
the demonstration by many thousands
passed off peacefully.

BARTENDERs A RESUME
Attorney General, Fixes Their Status
Under New Law.

Attorney General, Fixes Their status
Under New Law.
That the new law prohibiting any but
qualified electors from engaging in the re-
tall sale OF intoxicating liquors. which
went into effect in this state on March
!, does not apply to bartenders and porters,
is the opinion of Attorney General H. w.
Byers.
Mr., Byers, when in Council Bluffs Sat
urady was asked by certain interested
saloonmen regarding the new law and he
said that It was merely Intended to pro
hibit any person other than a qualified
elector of the city. town or township In
which the business was carried on to con-
duct a saloon or engage in the retail sale
of Intoxicating liquors. '"The law was
never intended" declared the attorny gem
eral ito apply to bartenders or porters
merely serving as employees of the pro-
prietor OF a saloon"
When the law went into effect las,
Tuesday, two or three men engaged as
b~artenders in local saloons, who had not
been residents Of the city sufficiently long
to make them qualified electors lost their
Jobs as their employers had been Informed
that the law applied equally to bartend-
ers ana porters, as to the owner of the
Baioen. Now that the attorney general ba,
given II as his opinion that the new Iaw
does not apply to them, these bartenders
will be able to resume their former posi.
