It is re- ported that this pass is held by the rebels. who have posted many guns. They are supposed to have cut oG S,000 imperial troops who were go- ing northward from Hankow.
 The government first mentioned Kwang Shui, which is on the south slope of the hills, as the place for Yin Tchang's mobilization. but eyi- dently the war minister has been con tent to assemble his forces on ths north side of the hills.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 2i.-Threc weeks have passed since the fedora ton of shopmen employed by the liar riman lines walked out The situa- ton tonight is practically the same as it was at the time the walk out was ordered There has been vir- tually no violence. The shops here and at Portland. Sacramento and Los Angeles have been carefully picketed, but clashes between the union men and strfkebreakers have been few.
 Both sides claim a victory The strikers claim that the rolling stock of the Southern Pacific is in bad shape but the railroad company says it has sufficient non union men 10 make al! necessary repairs. The strikers as sert that trains are not running sched' ule time. but the railroad officials state that no serious delays have re- suited from the strike.
 From Portland 1t is reported that sixty-five per cent of the normal force has been replaced and that by in creasing the working hours all nee essary repair work can be handled. The Southern Pacific company, ac cording to it's officials. has experienced little inconvenience as a result oi the strike.
 Company officials here when asked regarding conditions declare that inc strike is over. The strikers and com. pany officials alike are agreed that this is the most orderly strike oi late years. Were it not for the IicKeting. it would be difficult to dis cover that a strike is in progress.

 The letter was dated Los Angeles, October IT. and postmarked Salt Lake, October IS. It answered a let- ter of Shepherd dated October 16. the day Mr. Tait visited Pasadena.
 Shepherd wrote: There are man : veterans of the Civil war. here, ant in Los Angeles, who desire q state ment from you regarding pensions.

 Him

BOSTON. Oct. 2I.-To strengthen the chain of circumstantial evidence upon which Rev. Charles V. T. Riche- son was aTrested yesterday for the alleged murder of Miss Avis innell, to the police today concentrated their efforts on ascertaining whether it was Rioheson or another person who dined with the young music student last Saturday afternoon. a few hours before she took the fatal cyanide of potassium. The police say they have evidence indicating that Richeson was her companion.
 They worked on the theory that the man with whom Miss Linnell dined was the person who gave her the poison powder which sine took believing it would remedy her physi. cal condition. Police attempts to ob- tain from the room in Cambridge coupled by Richeson some article which might further connect him with the charge were frustrated unexpect. edN today Inspectors who went to the pastors rooms reported that ey- erything was in a state of chaos. as a result og a general ransacking prior to the police visit. It is not known who did this. but it was given out that a newspaper reporter imperson- ated an officer a,nd gained entrance to the apartment
 That the police have discovered the restaurant where Miss Iinnell lunched on Saturday, and that Riche- son was the man who accompanied her, was reported from headquarters late today. IL Is said that a young woman at the Y. W. C. A building furnished this information This wit ness is believed to have been the last person to talk with Miss LinneIl be- fore she took the poison. and she said the girl said: T dined with Mir Richeson. The police say they learned that Richeson was overheard making a telephone appointment with Miss Linnell for lunch on Saturday
 It is understood that Richeson wrote out in his cell his resignation as pastor of the Emmanuel Baptist church of Cambridge. His parishon CTS were given to understand last night that his resignation would be forthcoming tomorrow
 The minister was visited today by Moses Grant Edmunds. father of Miss Violet Edmunds. his fiance, at whose home in Brookline Richeson was arrested. Edmunds, leaving the jail. said the prisoner was confident of acquittai, and looked forward to the time when his name might be cleared of the charge which stands in the way of his intended marriage. He added: Richeson will have as good defense as money can buy"
