GLACIER COMES BACK
Its Return Upsets the International
Negotiations.

Vancouver, Oct. 18.-The unexpected
return of a glacier at Glacier bay, on
the Alaskan boundary. to its former
haunt has upset the tentative negotia-
lions between the Canadian and the
United States authorities. An outlet
to the seas from Canadian territories
north of Prince Rupert would have
been provided and would have been of
considera BILE benefit to Canadian inter-
ests back of the boundary strip had
the negotiations proceeded.
The loca ton was formerly occupied
by the Grand Pacific glacier. This i'm
pediment removed itself some time
ago. but just as arrangements were
approaching completion the glacier re-
turned and now constitutes an effec-
tuaI barrier to the inlet.

Child OF TROUBLE
Missed Santa Fe Train
and Attempted Death.
Delay Sandwich and Coffee
Problem to Officials.

Believing that the world held moth
ing but misfortune in store for him
and basing his belief on the fact that
Santa F'e railway train left the sta
ton without him, Nike Mrak, an Aus
trian with a bushy head of hair ond
a close cropped mustache, attempted
suicide at Chillicothe, Ill, according
to advice received today in Topeka
by officials of the road.
Nike Mrak was en- route San
Francisco to New York and thence
across the ocean to Havre with the
destination at Basel He left the
Santa Fe train at Chillicothe to set
something to eat He left his coat
inside the car. When Mrak-pro-
nunciation not gfven-walked out of
ing more than a pair of shining steel
rails and a brick platform beneath.
haze of smoke to the east told MIN
that his train and coat and tickets to
his home across the sea had left,
leaving him behind.
Apparently Mrak was not acquaint-
ed with railway customs in America.
Undoubtedly he was not aware of the
extent of the telegraph and the anxi-
ETY. of the Santa Fee to take care of
longings. At any rate. he went over
to the rooms of the Chillicothe Santa
Fe club, took one last longing look
at the deep blue sky and stuck a
knife in his throat.
1t is believed he will recover. He
has been told that his ticket to New
York is safe, that his ticket across
the ocean to Havre is secure, that his
European railway transportation from
Havre to Basel is waiting for him. He
has been told also that the $3.50 in
golden hidden in his shoes is all ready
for his grasp and that the sweetheart
at Basel will be waiting for him at
the squatty European station. The
Santa Fe even went to the trouble to
cable her the news of her lovers in
discreet attitude toward the world in
general and she will suffer the agony
of another liners delay.
Railway officials have a million
things to contend with every day.
They guard their tempers, oil down
their dispositions and answer as civil
ly as possible the growls of patrons
who wait nervously for late trains
They contend with fires, pestilence,
wrecks, drOuth and interstate COM
merce commissions. But the mania
of suicide terminated by the delay of
a waitress in serving a sandwich and
coffee, thereby falling to the weak
ness of an Austrian, instigates the
growth of additional gray hairs
around the temples of Topeka traffic
officials.

]. ]. HILL IN A WRECK,
Fireman Killed and Several Persons
Injured, But He Escaped.

Winona, Mimi, Oct. 1S.-A wreck
occurred today on the Burlington road
at Nelson, Wis, when northbound
express train No. ST with James j.
Hill in his private car at the rear, ran
into local southbound passenger train
No. 5. Mr.. Hill was uninjured.
Fireman Elliott of Desoto on the
local was killed. Several others were
slightly injured.
The express train was late and
running about so miles an hour and
the engineer failed to note the block
signal in the fog. The local train was
about to take the siding when the en-
gineer observed the express train rap
idly approaching He reversed his
engine and jumped. A few of the
passengers on the local were injured,
but none seriously. Mr.. Hill was
shaken up but not much hurt
The express engine telescoped the
front end of the first express car on
the express train. Both engines were
badly wrecked. Travel on the main
line was blocked for some hours after
the collision, but trains were operated
past that point on a siding.

FIGHT STRIKERS.
Mine Guards Fire Machine Gun
From an Automobile.
A Number of Casualties on Both
Sides.

Forbes, Colo, Oct. 18.-One striking
miner was killed, two reported fatally
wounded and one mine guard was per-
haps MORALLY wounded and another
less seriously hurt as a result of a
battle between strikers and mine
guards at the tent colony here during
which a machine gun was fired into
the strikers camp.
Deputy Sheriff F. r. Bradley was
the mine guard who was so seriously
wounded and when he was shot the
other deputies began firing from the
machine gun which heretofore had
been used for show of force only.
Sheriff Grisham and his undersher-
ifs declare that the estimate of cas-
ualties within the strikers camp of
one dead and two fatally injured as
given to them by union officials seems
scarcely probable, as the hail from the
machine gun at such close range as it
was fred, must have done more fatal
work. Officials at the strikers camp
are reticent concerning the casualties
and even refuse to divulge the names
of those they admit were struck by
bullets Unofficial but reliable reports
declare four strikers were killed.
The battle began shortly after
strikers are said to have fired into the
mine camp at the Forbes mine. Bull
lets fell about the tipple house, around
which women and children were gath
cred. a group of mine guards made
a sortie to repel the attack, but were
beaten back.
Machine Gun on Auto.
Mine superintendent Robert Nichols
then called for aid from Trinidad.
Sheriff Grisham Immediately ordered
his ten mounted deputies who were
stationed at the Ludlow camp, to pre-
serve order. to hasten to this place.
Three automobile loads of mine
guards from the Ludlow company
property accompanied the undersher-
ifT One of the automobiles was equip
ped with a machine gun which swung
from the rear seat of the vehicle. AS
the deputies entered the opening of
canyon which led to the strikers col
ony they were targets of many rifles.
Early in the engagement, after the
arrival of the deputies, Bradley was
shot while firing from a horse. He
fell, dying. Immediately the guards,
made vindictive by the loss of their
comrade pressed harder upon the
strikers The automobile carrying the
machine gun was turned with it's rear
toward the strikers camp and a hail
of bullets were hurled into the tent
colony and at the strikers between It
and the guards.
In their last desperate rally the
strikers pushed toward the minc
guards and deputies, firing from their
rifles as they ran. In this sortie, one
more guard was shot and several
horses killed and wounded.
The fire from the machine gun be-
came hotter and the strikers retreated
hastily to their tent.

The market closed strong Virtually
all of the leading stocks moved upward
swiftly today. Shorts unable to provoke
further liquidation were forced to cover

Bonds were irregular.
There was a good demand for stocks at
the opening today. Bear traders were de-
sirous of evening up their commitmen
