IDENTIFY z MEN
As s. P. ROBBERS
Sacramento Police Claim to Have
Pair Who Held Up China
Japan Mail Train
| REV0LVERS PROVE UND0ING
Duo Arrested for Horse Stealing
Charged with Good
years Crime
REvoLvERS PROVE UNDOING
ASSOCIATED Pressl

SACRAMENTO Cal, July 18.-Two
men arrested on a charge of horse
stealing by a constable last Saturday
night have been identified as the BAN
ats who held up and robbed the China
and Japan fast mail on the Southern
Pacific near Goodyears April II last.
They were lodged in the county Jail
and gave their names as James c.
Brown and Charles Dunbar
The numbers of the revolvers they
carried led to their identification. Sher-
iff Mcdonald of Solano county will
take them to Benicia tomorrow morn
ing
Three revolvers were stolen from a
Riverside store shortly before the train
robbery and these are the three found
on the prisoners. The shotgun left un-
der the bridge by the train robbers
was also stolen from this gun store.
Furthermore, the prisoners answer in
every detail the descriptions given by
the train crew after the holdup. The
smaller of the men, Charles Dunbar,
aside from answering the general de-
scription of the train crew as to outer
appearance, has a gold tooth on the
left side of his mouth, as did the
smaller train robber
PRISONERS WON'T TALK
The prisoners were not questioned
tonight as they showed no inclination
to speak, but both Chief Special Agent
P. ]. Kindelon and Special Agent P.
E. Kelly of the Southern Pacific and
the local sheriff's force believe that
there can be no doubt as to the cor
rectness of the Identification. All that
now remains to establish a case
against the men is that they be iden-
titled by residents of Martinez as the
men who lived in a shanty near that
place for several weeks before the rob-
berry and visited the scene Of the crime
daily, apparently to rehearse the de-
tails of their holdup.
This identification should be made
tomorrow, for the men were familiar
figures to residents in the vicinity of
Martinez.
When Constable Mike Judge cap
tured the two men Saturday night
they were driving along the Twelfth
street road in a single rig. They had
been camped near the road for three
days and claimed that they had come
from Tracy, where they had been pick
ing fruit, and that they were headed
for Wheatland to pick hops. Judge,
in the belief that they were horse
thieves who have operated in this vi
cinity of late, ordered them from their
buggy. One of the men reached for
the shotgun under the seat, but the
constable warned him and both men
submitted to arrest.

A RATHTUB FOR MULES

A concrete bathtub some forty feet
long and a few inches more than four
feet deep has been installed in the Hen
ry colliery of the Lehigh Valley Coal
company at Plains, Pa, for the accom-
modation of the mine mules.
This mine improvement is built at
the entrance of the mule barn. The
long cared beasts are pretty tired when
they conclude the days work, but when
they strike the bath all fatigue disap-
pears and they rush in, crowding each
other forsthe deepest place in the tub.
Directly over it runs a perforated
pipe and when the mules have disport-
ed themselves in the water in the tub
the shower bath is turned on. The speed
with which a mine mule will hurry to
the barn when the days work is over
Is proverbial, yet with all their desire
TO get the second meal of the day they
have to be driven out of the bath.

MONTICELLO, N. Y, July 18.-Au-
tomobilists hereabouts are buying gas
oline this month at 1 cent gallon.

a cent or two until it finally reached
the unprecedented figure of 1 cent q

The news of the trade warfare has
brought a stream of automobileists
from surrounding towns. One of the
dealers threatens to give away his
fluid. Gasoline costs the dealer about
13 cents a gallon.

Fannie Carson forgot to do one
thing today. She forgot to go by the
governor Office and thank him for
what he has done for her. She drove
straight to the union station from the
penitentiary. Perhaps, she was so
happy she overlooked her duty to
the governor. But she did thank
him out there and thanked also the
prison authorities.
During the morning several ladies
in Columbia rang up to inquire about
Fannie Carson. They asked when
she was going, how she felt and like
questions. One lady asked for Mrs.
Carson to come to the 'phone.
"Couldn't Telephone.
IT don't know how to telephone, :"
said Mrs. Carson. She Was told how
and went to the phone and talked
to the inquirer. II am going now,"
she said.
Il was through the kindness of the
penitentiary officials and Governor
Ansel that Fannie Carson could
leave on the l o'clock train this af-
ternoon. An officer was dispatched
on horseback to bring the official
pardon. "We came very near not
being able to get you off today, -
Mrs. Carson was told. "Oh, I would
have been so sorry, and I appreciate
what you have done for me-"
There was no parting between Ed.
Green and Mrs. Carson. Out at the
penitentiary the women prisoners
never see the men prisoners except as
they pass to or from their meals.
But Ed Green had heard Of Mrs.
Carson's pardon, and perhaps in his
heart and in the heart Of John Page,
there arose some hope for them
selves.

OVER MOUNT WILSON.
Arch Hoxsey Makes q Sensational
Flight at Los Angeles.


Los Angeles. Deea 30.-Arch Hoxsey.
of Pasadena, Cal. holder of the present
worlds altitude record of 11,474 feet,
flew over Mount Wilson. the highest
peak of the mountain range which rims
The valley in which Los Angeles, Pasa-
dena and the towns of the. orange belt
lie. Under ideal weather conditions he
scared 10,005 feet into the sky and
cleared the crest of Mount Wilson with
4,200 feet TO spare.
Lieutenant Vernon Boiler and several
other army officers who are here, were
quick to observe in Hoxsey's perform
ence q new way of transporting armies
across mountain ranges and predicted
the early relegation of the army mule
as an essential in scaling heights.
Lieutenant Boiler, who came here from
Fort Whipple, Ariz, said that a thou
sand biplanes could transport an army
of 10000 men across mountains as high
as the Alps in day.
Hoxsey used a heavy stock Wright
biplane, equipped for passenger service,
and he made the journey from the field
to a point beyond the mountains in
l hour and % minutes.
The distance is estimated at "a miles.
On an air line the distance from the
field to the mountain is less than that,
but Hoxsey circied over the field until
| he had reached his maximum height
before he pointed the nose of his ma
chine toward the range He was out
| of sight of the crowd before he made
| the attempt at topping the peak.

WILL SETTLE WAGE DEMANDS.
satisfactory Progress of TPainmen's
Conference With Western Lines.

Chicago, I'LL, Dec. 3O-Managers of
slXty-one western railroads and repre-
sentatives of the trainmen. conductors,
baggagemen and fiagmcn on these
lines are said to be making satisfac-
tory progress in the settlement of wage
demands. Formal notice was handed
the managers of the demands of the
men, which average about 10 per cent
increase. Today the managers sent
back their formal reply. which, it is
understood, offers a scale increase of
aud 10 per cent. 1t was the feeling
around both headquarters that this
would be the basis of settlement, as it
is about the halfway mark between
what the men demand and what the
railroads first offered. All the COM
munications between the union repre-
sentatives and the managers are care
fully guarded, as it is desired to avoid
the excitement throughout the coun-
try over the talk of strike, such as
marked the negotiations between the
roads and the engineers. where a gil
gantic strike was averted at the last
minute, after both sides and the gov
eminent mediator had abandoned hope
of peace.
In the present case there is no
thought of strike, or even of an ap-
peal to the government arbitrators.
Both sides are anxious to have the
scale adjusted before the new year,
and everything, it is thought, will be
signed up not later than Saturday
