 Series Of Horrible Grimes

geance. After his senstence he told me that when he was released he would come back and kill the people who were responsible for his conviction and also their children. I'll put them all in hell, he said.
 Evidence furnished by Mr. and Mrs. William Snowman is said to have oeen largely responsible for Marzyek's convic- tion
 Nine persons remain here who fear his vengeance. These persons, all Slavenlc, are James Vopat, Mrs. Minnie Vopat, who obtained a divorce from Marzyek i'm mediately after his sentence, and married Vopat nine months later; their children, one 10 months old and the other three years; John Katke, father of the mur- dered Mrs Snowman who testified against MarZyel; Mrs. John Katke and the three Katke children, Emily, aged Il years, Annie, aged IS, and Mary, aged % years.
 As to the possible connection between the Ellsworth and other tragedies Mrs Nopat said hcr former husJaad was Sen- victed of forgery in Colorado Springs a few months ago. She said 1t was not improbable that he had been in Mon- mouth lately. The same insane cruelty on the part of the slayer is evidenced in the Burnham and Wayne tragedies at Colorado Springs in the murder of Wilt lam F. Dawson, his wife and daughter in Bonmouth and in the killing of Show man.
 Marzyek served in the Philippine war and after his return to this country de- serted from the army. He had been in trouble since for forging checks and steal ing. Until he went to the penitentiary he was a constant fugitive.

Wright Gets Record

Mantee, Mic, October 1S.-Orville Wright twice broke the worlds gliding record today, remaining aloft for one minue and 15 seconds On the last of his five flights into the teeth of s mile an hour wind he fell II feet but was not hurt. The machine was smashed. Mir Wright, de- spite the damage to the machine, was delighted. lie felt today's experiments demonstrated his ability to remain in the air without the use of a motor just 9s soon as certain alterations are made in the construction of the supporting agency.
 The final flight was spectacular Wright lost control of the aeroplane with ihe result that the fall completely wrecked both wings on the right side. When the machine struck the ground it turned turtle and he aviator was hurled a con- siderable distance.

STEEL CORPORATION
 ID CANCEL LEASE
Wall Street RumOr Is Con- firmed After Business
 Hours

New York, October 1S.-The United States Steel corporation will cancel it's lease of the Great Northern ore prop critics, one of the largest leases of the kind the corporation holds. The ru- nor current in Wall street today was confirmed after business hours from official sources which declined to be quoted.
 When the lease will be terminated is undetermined. The contract stipu- lates that it should continue until all the ore is exhausted unless on Jan uary 15, 1915, the lease should be can cclled under the option reserved by the lessee and in case the lessee so de- termined two years notice should be given.
 The Great Northern properties are estimated to include deposits of 300,- Oo0,oO0 tons of iron ore.
 Officials of the Steel corporation re- fused to state the reasons for the can cellation of the big lease and this phase is a matter of conjecture.
 No figures were available as to how much ore has been mined since the opening of the properties. The lease provides that the corporation mine 750,000 tons more each successive year and that the specified amount of ore must be paid for whether it Is mined or not.
 Under this provision the corporation would be required to mine 3,750,000 tons during the present year. or at least pay for that amount, which would mean S3.697,50
 E The iron ore properties of the Grea Northern railroad were in 1906 trans ferrcd to Louis W. Hill, James J. Hill and Walter ]. Hill as trustees of the 1,500,000 shares of beneficial interest in the trust, equal to the number of shares of stock held. being issued De cember ?. 1906, to Great Northern stock . holdors.

APPEAL IS MADE FOR ARBITRATION Railroad Officials Say That Nothing Is Left to
 Arbitrate

New Orleans. October 1s.-An appeal to striking employees of the Hartman lines, according to statements made this aft ernoon at the headquarters of the strikers in this city. While w. E. Bowen, gen. eral secretary of the federation of em- ployes Of the Illinois Central railroad, declined to be quoted, it was admitted by others at the headquarters that the na- tional officers of the federation are con sidering arbitration as a means of bring ing the conflict between the men and the railroads to an end
 ''The national officers are the ones to give out this information" said Mr. Bowen, 'and for this reason l would not care to discus the matter"
 The report that arbitration is to be re- sorted to follows suggestions made by a committee recently named by Governor Hooper of Tennessee. This committee, it is said, suggested possible agreement on the demands of the federation if this body would consent to waive the technical recognition of the federation. This pro- posal is believed to have met with favor among large element of the strikers, and may be made the basis of an appeal to arbitrate.
 Illinois officials here stated that the road had virtually won it's fight already leaving nothing to arbitrate. M
 J. D. Buckalew, of Little Rock, senior vice president of the International As sociation of Machinists. will arrive here tomorrow and possibly will be one of the speakers at a mass meeting tomorrow night of strikers and sympathizers.
 The following telegram from MT. Buck alew, dated McComb City, Miss, was re- ceived here today:
 twill be in New Orleans tomorrow to remain several days. Tell the strikers that the story that I'm asking the men to go back is false. company tactics only We have them whipped regardless Of soldiers and iniunctions."

INDEPENDENTSARE
 NOT ID INTERVENE Tobacco Trust Dissolution
 to Be Uninterrupted COURT so DECIDES
However, They Will Be Given an Opportunity to Present Their Objections to Proposed Plan
 Monday, October 30

New York, October 1S.-There will be no intervention by the so called independents in the American Tobacco companys pro- posed plan of reorganization. The United States circuit court handed down a mem orandum so stating this afternoon, after the filing of petition during tho day by Felix H. Levy and Louis D. Brandes, counsel for three associations, stating their opposition to the plan. The inde- pendents, however, will be given an op- portunity to present their objections, the court states, at public hearing here October 30
 "The court will entertain no application for the filing of documents except by parties to the action,'' reads the memo randum. "The joint petitioners while not granted leave to intervene, will be given an opportunity to present their objections to the plan at the hearing Monday, October 30. Any briefs or memo randa to the court must be handed up at or before the commencement of the hear ing.''
 The petition of the independents was filed in the name of the National Cigar Leaf Tobacco association, the Cigar Manufacturers Association of America and the Independent Salesman Associa- tion of America. Opposition to the plan was based on the following allegations:
 That the petitioners were vitally in- terested in the dissolution of the tobacco trust. that the plan, petitioners believe, is fundamentally defective in that it fails in substance and effect to conform the other equipments of the decree of the United States supreme court.
 That a petition of the plan would not in any substantial sense restore free competitive conditions in the tobacco in- dustry nor remove the domiation by the so called tobacco combination
 Relative to the decision of the court, MT. Levy said tonight:
 T am very much pleased that the court has granted the petition, which was filed by Mir. Brandeis and myself thereby per- hitting the independent associations which were present to present pro their objections to the plan proposed by the tobacco company at the hearing. which is to be held October 30, also giving us the right to submit briefs and memoranda. We did not ask to intervene. We asked merely to be permitted to present our objections and to be heard at the argu- ment and this request has been granted"

Two Men Suspected

Santa Barbara, Cal, October lS.-Two men are under surveillance in connection with the alleged attempt to dynamite the Fl Capitan bridge over which President Tafts train passed early Monday morn ing. according to admissions made to- night by authorities. They deny arrests are imminent.
 The theory that an expert planned the destruction of the bridge with high ex- plosives, seems to be doubted since the stamp on the dynamite found there is the same as that on the dynamite used by Southern Pacific workmen in blasting in this section.
