home with his sister, Mrs Bertha Hid
de, just outside the city limits on the

by a street car while near the inter-
section of North Broad and May

short time.
He was placed upon the car and
taken I'D to the business center of
the town. but death resulted before
doctor could be secured.
His nephew. Frank Hidde, was noti-
ded of the accident and had the re-
mains taken to the Klien undertaking
rooms.
The coroner viewed the remains and
decided that an inquest was not nee
essary. after an interview with the
motorman. Gus Doose, and Conductor

struck and killed Kresse.

til recalled to this city by her own at

out and came to this city to make
his home with Mrs. Hidde.
He was quiet and inoffensive and
OF very sociable disposition. He was
very much interested in the robbery at
the Oleander and has spent Friday
afternoon and evening at the place
with a lot Of congenial comrades.

ters, Mrs. Bertha Hide of this city

COAL LAND LEASES
NELSON'S PROGRAM
Minnesota Senator States
Plans After White House
Conference.

After a conference with the President
this morning. Senator Knute Nelson OF
Minnesota. chairman of the Senate
Committee on Public Lands, announced
that he would prepare and introduce a
bill in the Senate when 1t reassembles,
providing for the leasing of Alaskan
coal lands. r..s-.
This BILL" said Senator Nelson, will
be restrictive. 1t will safeguard the
coal interests of the Territory by pro-
viding that only one lease shall be held
by one person or concern. 1t will, how
ever, allow the partial development OF
these great properties"
AS the matter now stands, the advo-
Gates of the development of the
Alaskan coal lands have had the last
say, so far as the practice Of filing
briefs with the President is con-
cerned.
A letter submitted for Executive
perusal by Falcon Joslin, resident
OF that Territory, who says that ne
has no interest in the Cunningham
claim, Is the latest argument now In
Mr.. Taft's hands.
Former President Roosevelt Is scor-
ed for suspending a law a few years
ago relating to Alaskan coal, the pc
titioner contending that the only
ground for the action was the unsup-
ported argument of Clifford Pinchot
This, he said. has worked a hardship
upon all investors in coal lands in
that Territory.
