TRAINS STALLED AT OGDEN.
Southern Pacific Tied UP Worse Than
Ever Before In It's History.

Ogden, Utah, March 3.-With hun
dreds of passengers marooned here
including many colonists from east
ern points, the Southern Pacific rail.
road is tied up worse than r. any
other time in it's history. Not a train
has left for the west for twenty-four
hours and floods in the Humboldt val
ley where the river has changed it's
course are so overwhelming according
to local officials that it will require a
week and possibly ten days before
traffic can be partially restored.
Southern Pacific train No. 8, which
left for the west Tuesday, carrying
tons of mail, will return from Nevada.
Other passenger trains sent out from
here will return to Ogden, where the
Southern Pacific railroad maintains a
hotel where passengers are being ac-
commodated. The Union Pacific and
the Denver and Rio Grande continue
to operate trains east of Ogden and
their incoming passengers swell the
number of marooned westbound trav-
elers.

Lady Lytton Says.

London, March 3.-Lady Constance
Lytton has recently served her second
sentence for militant tactics in con.
nection with the Votes for Women

several days at Newcastle. but was
set free by order of the home secre.

she determined to see whether she
would be treated in the same way II
she were in a humber walk of life,
AS her admirers say Of her:
She Is suffragette of the classes
who wished to be treated as a suffra
gette of the masses"
So she disguised herself as a work
ing woman, under the name of Jane
Wharton, and was arrested. Sen.
fenced to fourteen days, with the Cd
ton OF fine, she chose to 90 to Jail
and passed a week in the Walton Jail
In Liverpool. Then her identity was
discovered and she was released, in
an exhausted condition from the et
fects of forcible feeding.
THE reality" she said afterwards
surpassed all that l had anticipated.
1t was a living nightmare of pain, hor-
ror and revolving degradation. The
sensation is that of being strangled
and there Is feeling of complete help
lessness, as of an animal in trap"

THE WAR THERE is AT AN END

Rebels Fail for Lack Of Aid.

Bluefields, March 3.-The insurrec.
tionary movement headed by General
Estrada against the Nicaraguan gov.
eminent has been practically crushed.
The insurgent campaign in the west
has run out and nothing is left to the
PROFESSIONALS but resort to guerrilla
warfare, encouraged by the desperate
hope that the United States may yet
intervene in wish to put an end to
the situation in the republic.
For the first time today the cores.
pondents and the prominent person
ages of this city were told the true
situation which, however, has been
suppressed for a week. The public
generally is still in the dark and pin
ming its faith to the false reports col
lected about insurgent successes. The
reports have been given currency not
only in this city but have been sent
broadcast with the deliberate purpose
of influencing opinion in the United
States and elsewhere and of attracting
recruits from the governments force.
1t is now admitted that General
Chamorros' campaign was a failure.
He had hoped that the interior would
welcome and reinforce the insurgents
arms. This was possible up to the
time President Zelaya resigned. His
resignation and the election of Presi-
dent Madriz appears to have satisfied
the people in the interior and the
west and when General Estradas army
reached the heart of the country they
we're given a lukewarm reception and
little or no aid.
