MISSION THEATRE.

1t is very good bill that opened at
the Mission theatre yesterday, with
several acts so equal in merit that any
one of them might be billed as the
headliner. The one most vigorously
advertised is that of Noodles Pagan,
the newsboy, who has appeared in
Salt Lake before in a different capa-
city His fame for selling papers does
not necessarily imply that he is a good
vaudeville entertainer. AS it happens
Pagan did the usual turns in an &C
ceptable manner until he lost his head
over the vociferous applause which
greeted him, and made himself obnox-
louS to several women in the audi
ence who came to be amused and not
strolling player. 1t has been so
rarely attempted in a reputable thea
tire in Salt Lake that the disagreeabl BILE
attention came as most unwelcome
shock to the recipients. With this ex-
ception the entertainment offered at
the Mission this week is clever and
clean.
A troupe OF Russian dancers, includ-
ing nine performers, gave an exhibit
ton Of native dancing specialties that
was different from anything previous
ly seen here. Their act is a curiosity,
made effective by native costumes
of a family of acrobats, appeared in
the opening number and gave a sue

cores, as the audience was hardly sat

gave. The remaining act was a jap

Jack Halliday. The little japanese

dainty sketch, cleverly given by the
two participants.

STEAMER BURNED
OFF OREGONCOA
All on Board Safely Landed,
But Ships Cook Died
From Exposure.

Newport, Ore, May 19.-The arrival
gasoline steamer ]. Marhoffer, en-
route from San Francisco May IA for
Portland, Ore, brought the news that
the Marhoffer had burned at sea late
yesterday opposite point about TWEEN
ty miles north of Yaquina bay.
The master and mis- wife and the
crew escaped in the vessels boats and
succeeded in effecting a landing. The
ships cook, however, died after leav-
ing the vessel from injuries and ex-
posure-
According to George Hasstoff, the
engineer who brought the news to New
port, the fire started in the engine
room about o'clock yesterday after
lIoOn, it is believed, from gasoline
which escaped from a leaky pipe.
Hasstoff, who was on watch at the
time, had gone on deck for a moment,
and when he started to descend into
the engine room he discovered the in
terror a mass of flames. Hasstoff ran
to Captain Gus Petersen, who, real
izing that the tanks were likely to ex-
plode at any minute, headed his craft
for shore, a little over a mile distant
The Marhoffer made this distance
10 n6I 6ilSlnSSs anu
ran on to a siOping reef about half
mile off the mouth of Fogarty creek
The Marhoffer's two boats, which had
in the meantime been made ready
were launched. First Mate H. john
son and Mrs. Petersen, the masters
wife. and eight of the crew left on
the first one. The second boat, con-
tanning Captain Petersen and the re-
naming eight members of the crew
was fouled by a breaker as il was
leaving the Marhoffer's side, and over
turned, throwing all the occupants
intr the water. The mates boat, how
ever, stood by and rescued all of them.
All but the cook were uninjured- He
had been struck while struggling in
the water. and was so severely hurt
that he died during the night.

PLEA FOR ARBITRATION
Declaration to BE Presented to the
Lake MOhOnk Conference at
Today's Session.

Lake Mohonk, n. Y. May 19.-The
Business Mems association Of the Lake
Mohonk conference on international ar
bitration. representing between so and
so chambers of commerce in the Unit
ed States and Canada, this afternoon
adopted a declaration to be presented
to the conference tomorrow. IN part
as follows:
The business interests of the world
are keenly alive to the abnormal con-
ditions that from time to time destroy
the confidence of peoples and interrupt
the workings of their interdependence.
The greatest and most distinctive of
these are those of the apprehension
of the positive realization of war.
I'VE hold that justice and righteous
ness are prerequisite conditions to
true business prosperity and, while we
recognize that arbitration of disputes
between individuals and nations is the
best means yet available for settling
them, we regard arbitration as but an
intermediate station on the way to
final contamination TO be found in
an international union, whose arbitral
court of justice will be the final court
of the world, from whose decision there
can be no appeal"

MINERS TO REMAIN IDLE
trict Without Agreementj
72,0oO Men Involved.

Peoria, Ill, May 1.-the $4,000 min
ers in Illinois will remain idle for an
indefinite period, following the dis
agreement tonight OF the apeosal com
mittees of miners and operators, by
which all negotiations were declared
off. President John H Walker of the
United Mine Workers of Illinois does
not hope for a settlement of the diff
ferences until late next fall
After an almost continuous secret
session since yesterday morning. the
substitute committee of miners and
operators formally reported tonight a
disagreement on differenuals, shot fir
ers and closed shop clauses.
The differential clause, the principal
stumbling block. provides REIMBURSEMENT
and advance in the tonnage rates in
several districts. The operators con-
cede an advance all over the state of
cents a ton. in line with the advance
in the eastern fields, but in addition
the miners demand a change in the diff
ferentfals of cents in southern Illi-
nois and cents in the north.
The closed shop clause, as proposed
by the operators, would ultimately
have forced the independent mine OPP
orators into the state association,
thereby taking away an effective
weapon from the miners union.

ROBBER MADE GOOD HAUL
Three Packages of Money, Containing
Total of 32,O24, Taken From
Station at Oil City, Pa.

Oil City, Pa, May I9.-Three pack
ages Of money containing $4,000, were
stolen from the Pennsylvania depot
here at $3.50 o'clock this morning while
John ]. TRULY, the station agent, was
loading baggage onto a Battle-Ground
train. The money was peing shipped
by the Adams Express company to
Philadelphia
The railroad detectives investigating
the robbery are of the opinion that the
theft was the work of one man who
knew the money was in the depot and
just where it was located
The Pennsylvania railroad pay car
arrived in oil City late last night and
turned over to the day station agent
Manila paper containing 32,024, which
were receipted for in the name of the
Adams Express company. The money
was consigned to the tTeasurer'S office
of the Pennsylvania railroad in Phil
adelphia-
The packages proved to be too bulky
for storage II the small deposit safe
and Night Agent TRULY placed them
under a sack behind the ticket coun-
ter. There was no one in the depot.
At $3.50 o'clock this morning. a Buff
falo-bound Pennsylvania train pulled
into the station and TRULY stepped out
on the platform, closing the office door
behind him. The door is self locking.
While about 200 feet from the depot
office TRULY saw by the light of the
station platform lamp that the office
door was not closed. Hurrying back
he ran into his office and discovered
that the three packages of money were
missing.
Shouting, he attracted the attention
of five policemen who were within a
block of the place. A hurried search
of the train and vicinity of the station
was made with no results.

GRAND JURY IS PROBING
Secretary of Illinois Manufacturers
Association Chief Witness at
Springfield Thursday.

Springfield, Ills. May 19.-For over
four hours today John M. Glenn. sec
rotary Of the Illinois Manufacturers
association, was before the Sangamon
county grand jury, investigating al
legged legislative corruption.
The Manufacturers association has
been mentioned in connection with eff
forts to defeat factory legislation. 1t is
said during the hearing the Illinois
Steel company and the IroQuois Steel
company were named in connection
with the grant by the state of valuable
lands in south Chicago
Both of these companies are members
Of the Manufacturers Illinois associa-
tion. Under the terms. so it is claimed,
the Illinois Steel company and the IrO-
Quois Iron company were to be given
land in south Chicago, said to be worth
$4,000, 900, for 100000.
The appearance Of Mr.. Glenn before
the grand jury is indirectly the result
of charges made by Professor Graham
Manufacturers association had used
undue influence to kill bills which the
association opposed.
When Mr.. Glenn appeared before the
grand jury, he brought with him
checks, vouchers and so forth. as or
dered by States Attorney Burke. He
said the association had a membership
of 1000, that the annual assessment is
never been made.
Among the bills which the Illinois
Manufacturers association opposed
were the employers liability bill, for
the drafting of which a commission
was later appointed under a bill passed.
other bills which failed to pass and
which the association opposed, were
the bill repeating. the conspiracy law,
the fellow servant liability bill and
some of the pure food bills
The inquiry before the grand jury
today also is said to have thrown some
light upon other phases of the alleged
Jackpot" feature of the investigation.

LA MOTO-PHROso.

For centuries scientists have racked
their brain to invent an automaton
that will look and act like q human
being, and every few years an invention
is put forward by some genius. During
the reign of Louis XIV of France,
Mons. Denfree invented five figures
that were wonderful in their day; they
could walk and bow, turn around and
do several other feats.
The manager of the Casino theatre
has made arrangements for wonder
full doll to be on exhibition for next
week only. and the public is invited tC
test its skill and try to solve the mys-
terry that has puzzled two continents
The figure is taken into the audience
at every performance, and everyone
can examine II at close range. Fred
Trevallion, the inventor, offers $500 to
anyone who can invent an automaton
that will duplicate the performance OF
La Moto-Phroso," as he calls his me-
chaniSm.
