 when Clark, who was sitting by his
 wife on the bed, threw a stone at
 the dog, soaring him away. Moore remarked that there were worse dogs in the vicinity than the one he was betting; Clark inquired if he meant to call him a dog. and stepping over, slapped him. and kicked him, dou- bling him up on the floor while d child grabbed him by the hair. Be- ing unable to defend himself other wise. and being a physical weakling anyway, Moore reached in his pocket and securing his pocket knife. cut Clark from a point above the left temple. back over the ear, a distance of three or four inches.
 When he was finally released he went into the house and laid down, where the officer found him on arriving. In the meantime Dr. Ellis was summoned, and finding Clark's wounds were not immediately even though he was bleed ing profusely. he gave first attention to Mrs. Clark, who was then quite hySterical. Later he attended to Clark's necessities. Clark declined to make a connected statement of his version of the affair

Western Railroads Lay Their
 Case Before Public MEAACED BY BANKRUPTCY
Unless They Are Permitted to Raise Rates to Meet Rising Expenses -Manu- lecturers Say Roads Are Trying to Scare People

Chicago, June S.-Simultaneous an peals to the people were made here today by the western railroads and by the Illinois Manufacturers asso- eiation- The railroad submitted their brief to the man in the street" and the farmer. predicting hard times if the roads are not permitted to in crease their rates The manufacturers tell the people not to be deceived as there is no danger of a panic. and laud President Taft for obtaining the injunction in halting the proposed raise. In behalf of the roads. Siauson Thomas. head of the railroad public ity bureau put forward -four reasons why railroad rates must be raised"
 According to Mir Thomas the rail- roads in the last two years have spent annually s220.0O0.OOO in main tenance. They have paid S13O. .OOO, 900 more annually for labor; they have paid s2O0,OOO.OOO annually for inter est; they have lost s25,00O, 900 annual ly on passenger traffic, with the re- suit that they are s730,00O00O to the bad in two years
 Then. for the benefit of the man in the street MT. Thomas quotes rail- road statistics as far back as 1S97 to prove the contention that the roads face ruin unless rates are raised
 The manufacturers resolution charges the officials of certain roads with being in a concerted movement to make the people believe the ship pers and consumers are making Un- fair demands and that another finan- cial crisis is pending The manu- lecturers call upon the people to hold up the hands of the government and demand that the whole question of advance or reduction of rates shall at this time. and at all future times. be presented to the interstate com merce commission for final adjudica- tiOn.

Heike. secretary of the company. who is charged with con spring to defraud the government on under weights of sugar.

 George s. Graham, who made the opening address for Heike, said he re- gretted bringing discredit to man now dead, but circumstances demand ed it. He knew, he said. his client. was at a period in life when a prison sentence. if even short, would mean 9 life term

Washington. June 3.-The senate passed the administration railroad bill at 9:55 tonight. It has been under consideration for twelve weeks and no other business save appropriations was considered during that time. The bih takes effect sixty days after the president signs it.
 Only twelve votes. all by democrats, were recorded against the bill The practical unanimity with which the bill was passed was due to radical changes made in the measure from the form in which it was drafted by Attorney General WiCkersham following num- crous conferences at the White House. All the insurgents who opposed many features of the original bill voted for it tonight.
 Through the elimination of the pool ing and merger sections and by reason of the adoption of many amendments in the interest of shippers the pro- gressives claim a signal victory and as they expressed themselves they are favorable to the large portion of the measure. Had it not been for the re-
  court of commerce. it is likely the vote for the bill would have been unani- nous.
 The high spots in the bill may be described as follows The bill pro- vides for the creation of new court of commerce" for the consideration ex- clusively of appeals from orders of the interstate commerce commission. The court is to consist of five judges to sit at Washington with powers co-or- dinate with the federal circuit court. While the offices of the court are to be at Washington, and regular ses- sions will be held here, provision is made for sittings anywhere in the United States.
 The government, rather than the in- terstate commerce commission, is made defendant in all cases coming before the court. but the commission is permitted to intervene as are oth- CT interested parties. The defense is placed under the attorney general, but the commission and interested parties

\ HORSE THIEF HUNT

THE FATE OF THE THIEF UNI

The Improbable Story of Cowboys Who
 Recovered Stolen Property.

Someday the dead body of a man will be found in the mountains in the lower part of Santa Cruz county, or. still later, his bleached bones will be found and the finders will wonder how he came to his death They will be able to think of no one in that neigh borhood who has been missed in recent months or years and the case will be catalogued with the scores of other cases of discoveries of unidentified dead bodies and bones.
 But those who will recall certain horse thief hunt in that neighborhoOd last week will suspect that they know how and where the deceased quit liv- ing The circumstances of that horse thief search were related yesterday to a reported for The Republican.
 One night the Riggs ranch three miles from Patagonia was raided and five saddles and two horses were stolen The saddles were badly needed and a posse of cowboys set out in search of the thieves, for it was sup posed that there were several of them, though there was subsequent evidence that there was only one.
 The cowboys returned the next day with the five saddles, the two stolen horses and an extra horse and saddle which they said they had taken from the thief. They had set him afoot. This statement was received with a smile and there was an intimation that the posse had acted unfairly toward the coroner; it was a shame to let ten dollars, the amount of the fee of that functionary, lying around in the hills. There was a suggestion that it was not yet too late for the coroner to earn it..
 The next day the cowboys said that they would prove that the thief was not a subject for an inquest; they would go out and bring him in. They were gone another day. but returned empty handed. They reported that the

 It is alleged by the Moores that sometime yesterday Mrs. Moore saw Clark very impertinently peeking at her in her own apartments. over a curtain hanging on the screen door at the back of the house. that she called her son and that he too saw Clark so employed. and going out re- monstrated with him, when he denied the act
