Denver, March 30.-"Theodore Roose-

He is on his way to California,

LOSSES TO BOTH
ARMIES SEVERE
Mexican FederalS and Rebels
Engage in Hard Battle.
FIGHT LASTS FOUR HOURS

Twelve Hundred Men Under General
Aubert Are Forced to Give Battle to
Greatly Superior Force of Rebels.
Latter outfank Federal Army and
Make Vigorous Attack In the Rear.
Jiminez, Mex, March 30.-General
Trucy Aubert and his column of 1900
federals was compelled to wage des-
perate battle again in his attempt to
escape the greatly superior forces of
the rebels.
The fight occurred at Atotonilco,
eighteen miles west of here. Losses
on both sides were heavy. The battle
lasted four hours, but it was reported
that Aubert had extricated himself,
leaving the rebels in possession of the
field.
For three days Aubert has been en-
gagged in desperate efforts to save his
command By strategy and forced
marches he succeeded in eluding the
enemy Never were his fortunes at
lower ebb, apparently. His men were
compelled by exhaustion TO rest at the
village OF Atotonilco.
On his heels were the columns of
Generals Fernandez, SalaZar and Cam.
pa, numbering $500 men, or double the
strength Of the fugitive federals. He
was outtianked and attacked In the
rear. The fighting was the most des.
perate of all engagements fought since
the original attack at Escalon last
Friday.
The combat opened with artillery
at long range but as the insurrecto
force drew nearer the rifle fire became
continuous.
The rebel generals admit that the
defense was the most desperate that
they have yet encountered. The fire OF
the federals was far more accurate
than before, their machine guns doing
deadly execution. The liberals charged
fiercely Their own fire was deadly, as
testified to by the federal dead on the
field
Tracy Richardson, an American gun
ner with the Liberals. was wounded
His home is in Missouri. The liberals
will continue the pursuit.

riage" furore started by Dean Summer
Of Chicago and now discussed all over
the country was found here when
John Charles Thompson. son of
wealthy parents, was refused license
to marry Miss Violet Wade, a talented
soprano singer who had come from
Chicago for the ceremony.
Thompson's parents protested the
issuance of the license on the ground
that their son, who is thirty years old
is in poor health owing to an injury
to his head, received six months ago.
He wears a metallic plate to replace
a portion of his skull, which was re-
moved.
Miss Wade is twenty-six years old
and is an attractive young woman.

NOW ASK MERELY
WAGE INCREASE
BituminouS Miners Modify
Original Demands.
OUTCOME IS UNCERTAIN

Operators Will Consider Latest Pro-
posal of Men for Raise in Pay of
Hours Work on Saturday Instead Of
Eight-Anthracite Operators Will
ina to Grant Small Advance.
Cleveland, March 30-As a means
OF preventing a strike in the bitumin-
GUS coal fields the miners proposed to
the operators to abandon al the orig
inal union demands ard to ask only
for an increase in pay of cents
ton over the present scale and for
five hours ON Saturday instead of
eight. The operators will argue on
the proposition with prospect that an
accordance or rejection will reached,
The suggestion was a complete sur
prise to the operators, as the union
conferees declared they would not
abandon any of their original de-
mands.
Although the bituminous operators
and representatives of the miners con-
ferred again in a final effort to fix a
wage scale to take effect next Mon
day it was admitted on both sides that
a strike was all but certain and on
both sides preparations were being
made for the approaching struggle. A
suspension of operations is absolutely
assured and a strike nearly so.
The anthracite operators in semi
official announcement state they have
been willing, almost from the first to
grant small increase in the miners
wages, but that the position OF the
union representatives was such that
this could not even be discussed, the
men having been instructed to hold
out for their original demands, which
the operators say never will be grant
ed.
If the bituminous conference ends In
a failure to agree, as it almost GER
tainly will, 100000 men are scheduled
to lay down their tools az midnight on
Sunday.
The suspension, which automatical
ly will follow when the present wage
scale expires, will not necessarily be
strike.
A formal order of the unions policy
committee and executive board will
have to be issued before the suspen
sion may be termed strike. IL nc
wage agreements exist on which tC
continue work 1t will not require 9
referendum vote of the union to cal
a strike, John p. White said.
1t was said that If negotiations were
broken off both sides could be brought
together at any time, as the operators
committee of thirty-two members re
mains as continuing body subject
to call.

COLLEGE PROFESSOR
SCORES ROOSEVELT
Says Colonel Has OveTeSti-
mated His Position.

New York, March 30-Coloel Roose-
welt was the subject in Professor Her
bert G. Lords course in psychology
at Columbia university. Professor
Lord told his class the former and
would be president was a very good
psychological study and proved him
self equal to the occasion of handling
his dynamic subject by hurling about
Rooseveltian expressions with the
greatest ease. And then he found a
new characterization for the colonel.
He said Theodore Roosevelt was
lacking in the delicate quality of
negative self-feeling.
MIR. Roosevelt has met and known
every one of importance and he has
attracted the eyes of the world by his
great career" said Professor Lord.
"He did not have to get shot to make
him famous. This life of praise has
created in him a tremendous energy
of positive self.feeling. 1t is pretty
hard to take that kind of champagne
end not feel light in the head
His self-assertiyeness has carried
him forward to a point where 1t is
unsafe to go further If Colonel Roose-
Welt had been killed in his African
| hunt he would have died great man
and the whole world would have wor-
| shipped at his bier. But at present
he has overestimated his position In
this country. Since his return he has
rourished this feeling of assertiye
ness to the utter exclusion of mega
| tive self.feeling"

ANOTHER MURDER IN
NEBRASKA PRISON
Half Breed Indian Stabs to
Death COIOTed Convict.

Lincoln, Neb, March 30.-Convict
Charles Davis stabbed and almost in
stantly killed John Strong at the state
Ienitentiary while the inmates of the
prison were leaving the breakfast
table.
When the gong sounded to clear the
conyicts from the table the prisoners
arose in their seats. Strong, who was
a negro, leaped from his place to the
table in front of him, ran down the
aisle and out of the door into the cell
house, blood streaming from a cash
in his throat.
Guard Charles Berry sprang to the
side of Davis, who was holding a
blood stained knife in his hand, and
placed him under arrest
Davis is said frequently to have
been threatened by Strong and
claimed that he killed the negro to
safeguard his own life Strong, who
with a brother was sent to the prison
for second degree murder, serving a
life sentence, had a bad record. He
frequently has secreted a knife from
the guards and has used it on fellow
convicts with whom he has had a
grievance.
Davis, who is half breed Indian
was seated directly behind the man he
killed Leaning over the interposine
table he seized Strong by the throat
and plunged the knife into it, drawing
the blade, which was a razor, back
toward the right ear. The windpipe
was severed and the large arteries

BUSINESS WAITS ON POLITICS
CoNGRESSMEN IGNORE EVERY
THING BUT CONVENTIONS.
Occasional Calls for Quorum Inter
rupt Cloakroom Political Argu-
ments-Tariff is Forgotten.

Washington, d. C.-Congress feels
is much like work as a small boy
who has to hoe the potatoes when the
circus is in town. 1t just simply has
no heart in the business. There's too
much big politics in the air.
1t looks now as if the statesmen
would not be able to settle down to
their normal frame of mine and tend
to business until after both the Re-
publican and Democratic conventions.
And then will come the Fourth OF
July. So most persons about the cap
ital have settled down to the convic-
ton that there will be no adjournment
until the middle of July. Many be-
heve it will run along until August.
AS for getting either house or SEN
ate to concentrate on piece of legis-
lation, that is almost an impossible
ity. Business is done with only a
small part of the members present.
1t takes hard skirmishing to get a
quorum together. When there is a
call for a quorum, there is a re-
luctant breaking up of political argu-
ments in the cloakrooms, and men,
,bers hurry into the chamber and
answer their names and then go out
and talk more politics.
Little interest is manifested in what
becomes of tariff Interest may re-
vive after the conventions, but it is
utterly lacking at present.

GOT HIS PRICE FOR CORN AT LAST
Kansas Man Held Crop Four Years,
Refusing Less Than 30 Cents
Has 100000 Bushels.

Cottonwood Falls, Kansas.-After
holding his corn crop which he re-
fused to sell for less than so cents
a bushel for four years, c. G. Smith
one of the most widely known farm
ers of Cedar Point, has kept his
word and was at last offered his
price. Now he is unloading nearly
10000 bushels of corn.
For storing and holding grain for
long periods, Smith, undoubtedly
holds the state record.
If Smith sells all of his 10000
bushels of corn before his new wheat
crop comes on, it will be the first time
in 25 years that all of his cribs and
granaries, which fill a barnyard near
ly as large as a city block, will have
been entirely empty.

anti-viyisectionist of Philadelphia, us
delighted with the recent English vivi-
section report, which promises to
abolish even the use of the live bait in
fishing.
"Mr. Coleridge once argued here in
Philadelphia about the cruelty of fish
ing with worms.
ooh his opponent said, the mere
fact that worm writhes and wriggles
when impaled on hook is no proof
that it is actually suffering pain.
No, oh, MOI said Mr.. Coleridge,
sarcastically. Beyond doubt that is
just the worms way of laughing at
