1T has come from gift OF
$500 and from one and from
many thousands like the good woman

seven children and the two miners who
from their Alaskan diggings sent me
$40 in gold dust. The association has
raised total of about $383,OO0 The

"The success of this enterprise has
been due chiefly to the generous and

RATES FOR FREIGHT
ARE SUSPENDED
BY COURT
DECISION IN SPOKANE CASE ,s
HELD UP BY A TEMPO. +
aARY INJUNCTION.

Washington, Nov. 9.-Expected rednc.
tions for transcontinental railroad
freight rates was held up TODAY when
the court Of commerce granted tenn
porary injunction against the order OF
tne interstate commerce commission In
what are pQpularly known as the Spo-
kane and other Pacific coast points
rate cases. The ORDER was made June
~ and was to have become effective
next Wednesday,. The cases involve
not only the back haul" freight rates
from Spokane and other intermoun.
tain points to Pacific coast terminals,
but also the application OF the lon4
and short haul clause of the law The
order of the commission, particularly
in the Reno case. laid down the prin-
ciples to be followed by the commits
sion. The effect of the commissions
order was to reduce the freight rates
from Atlantic seaboard points to inter-
Rocky mountain destinations. In the
reduction of transcontinental rates the
commission recognized the effect OF
water competition on the Pacific coast,
but held substantially that the rates
from the east to cities like Spok ane
and Reno should be lower than the ex-
listing rates.
An Appeal.
The transcontinenta1 railways ap.
pealed to the commerce court, main
tanning that the order was practically
confiscatory.
Late today the court issued the or
der granting the preliminary injunc.
ton. The courts finding leaves the
transcontinental freight structure as it
is at present.
In the opinion of the members OF
the interstate commerce commission,
the most important feature of the in
junction is the courts questioning of
the commissions action respecting the
long and short haul clause. The court
intimated that 1t proposed to make an
investigation OF the facts on which,
the order of the commission was based
in order to determine for itself basis
for final order.
In the circumstances it is regarded
likely that the cases will not be de.
termined by the court for several
months and that. whatever the judg-
ment of the court, the controversy win
be carried to the supreme court.

HUSBANDS MURDER
LAID TO WOMAN
OF CHICAGO
MARRIED CHICAGO
RESIDENT BELIEVED TO
HAVE SLAIN SPOUSE.

Chicago, Nov. 9.-Witnesses at the
inquest today over the body of John
Quinn, who was found shot to death
IN his home near the outskirts of the
city November 2, gave testimony which
threatened to involve the slain mans
wife. The woman is being held by the
police in an investigation similar to
that which was followed in the YER
milya case.
Charles E. Thorp, a stepson by the
Woman's second marriage, told of three
marriages he knew she had contracted,
though her former testimony acknowl-
edged only two. He added that he sus-
pected Mrs. Quinn, then Mrs. Thorp.
of having killed his father, since, he
said, the husband and wife alone were
in the house at the time.
The testimony today set up the fol-
lowing as facts involving Mrs. Quinn:
That she had been married three
times.
That her second husband, Warren
Thorp. who she married within two
months of the death of her first hus-
band, had been shot to death under
circumstances not unlike Quinn's death.
That Thorp, on the day of his death,
contemplated arranging to deed his
160-acre farm to a son, but was shot
while getting ready to go to notary.
That she visited Thorps home be-
fore her first husband was dead
That she and a daughter were held
in custody after Thorp's death, but
were released.
Mrs. Quinn told the police she was
awakened in the night by pistol re-
port and found her husband shot in
bed beside here; that the form of a
man was diseernable In the dim light
from street lamps, and that the stran-
ger took something like $3.50 from be-
meath the murdered mans pillow.
A revolver belonging to one OF her
roomers and missed by him some time
before the tragedy was found behind
bath tub, however, and one chamber
of the revolver had been discharged.
This and several minor details of the
woman's story aroused suspicion

ing over the city. AT present only
$500 police within the city support
the rebels.
The attitude of foreigners Is caus-
ing anxiety and d}strust among the
rebels. The rebel leaders point ont
that the consuls have permitted the
government to bring in soldiers con-
trary to the protocol Of 1910, and
have objected to General Chang
bringing In troops. Foreign railway
officials, they say, provide trains at
the governments order but not at
General Chang's. A threatening let
ter. referring to such incidents as not
being neutral has been received by
the consular body at Tien Tsin. The
Pekiag- -Hankow railway officials are
pro- Manchu.
The fact that General Wu Lung
Chengs head was carried away after
his assination N few nights ago has
caused the belief IN certain quarters
that a reward has been offered for it.
It is rumored that the head has been
brought to the Forbidden city. but
the story evidently has been invented
by rebels. who hope TO prove the tcom-
pliclty of the palace in the murder
The Chinese. government evidently
shares the tel.ef Of foreigners that
General Chang Shao Tsen controls
the situation in north China and 1t IS
using every possible means to gain
his support. General Chang. how
ever, is man Of strong convictions
and Of quite different type than the
ordinary officer,
Recently General Chang. in speak
ing to correspondent, asked what
foreigners thought OF the situation.
He said his men desired peace and
asked again: Can peaceable means
be found to terminate this great trol-
BILE? Why do foreigners think 50
much Of Yuan Shi Kai? Can Yuan
maintain peace?"
Then reverting to the Hankow mas
sacre and General Wu's assassina-
ton. General Chang expressed dis
trust OF the government.
General Tuan, with 1000 men In the
Third division, has reached ao-Ting-

lfeved to be with General Chang.

Washington. Nov 9-San Giuliano
the Italian minister of war, forward
ed to the Italian embassy TODAY a
telegram from General Caneva relat-
ing to battles of November and
November in which the Italian gem
eral declared. there was "indisputable
evidence of the violation OF the articles
OF war" on the part or the Arabs
General Caneva's message was as fol-
lows:
Our scouts on the field where the
encounters of the sixth and seventh
took place between the Ninety-t third
regiment of Italian infantry and
Turks and Arabs have ascertained
that acts of cruelty have been COM
mitted upon our fallen. One of the
two dead was found barbarously de-
capitated. No doubt exists that in
these encounters the .rurks were pres
ent and for this reason they are di-
rectly responsible. Rumors, the
foundations of which it was not pos
sible to ascertain, were current re-
garding barbarous killing of wounded
Italians on the field. while they were
still alive and prisoners.
AmbuIances Attacked.
"It was ascertained tnat the Arabs
directed the fire and the attacks
against the ambulances and wounded
troops. but it was still uncertain if
only the Arabs were to blame for it
or If the Turks should also have been
declared outlawed for violation of
war regulations. Now doubt is re-
moved and it has been ascertained in
a most absolute way that on the bat
tlefield of Ain Ear the Turkish COM
mander, in violation of article 80 of
the last convention. ordered hanged
without any trial our informants and
some Arabs, who were suspected of
spying. There is indisputable eyi-
dence of violation of the articles of
war on the part of the Arabs, who
were directed by Turkish officials
against the Italians"

The Country BOY 10 One Of the Most
Successful Comedies That Has Ever
Been Booked For eismarck.

Direct from its engagement at Lib
erty Theatre, New York, Henry B.
Harris will present the biggest COM
edy success of the year "The Country
Boy" at the Bijou theatre next We'd
nesday evening. This four-act COM
edy by Edgar Selwyn was originally
originally produced at the Liberty
Theatre, New York, last August,
where its success was instantaneous.
Later it was taken to Powers theatre,
Chicago, where the reception was no
less enthusiastic. However, it's rec.
ord of fourteen weeks in Philadelphia
at time when most Of the theatrical
attractions that visited the city were
suffering from a deplorable lack Of
patronage, is most convincing proof of
its popularity.
"The Country Boy" is in four acts,
with two OF the scenes laid In the
small village of Fairview, New York;
and the other two in New York City.
The story concerns a lad from the
country who has ambitions to do
something big" which he thinks i'm
possible in the narrow confines of his
home town. Accordingly his desires
led him to the city, where he is soon
swallowed up In the sweep and swirl
of the Great White Way" and after
a struggle which is graphically pic
tured by the author the boy is brought
to a realization that life back in the
home town is not so bad after all.
