BALL PLAYERS
 FINED Sl APPEAL
 FROM JUDGMENT
Clergymen Ready to With draw Complaint Since
 Sunday Playing Stops

That the Pastors Association is willing to drop the prosecution of the members of the Bridgeport baseball team now that Sunday baseball in this city has stopped was shown by the fact that the Rev. George M Brown, one of the leading spirits in the association, called up the author ities to see if the warrants for the arrest of the members of the team could not be recalled, letting the case drop.
 He was informed that it was too late for any action of this kind to be talk en as the warrants were in the hands of Prosecuting Attorney Alexander L. Delaney and notice had been serv- ed on the players to appear in city court this morning. The players ap- peared in court and were each fined S1 and costs Hugh F. Reddy was also fined $1 and costs by Judge Coughlfn for selling tickets of admis- sion to Newheld park on Sunday.
 The players who were fined this morning were Robbie Stow, Anthony Robertaille, Edward McGamwell, Der nard SiIzer. Monte Cross, manager of the team, Harvey Russell, and Fred Boultes. James O'Rourke, president of the league went bail for the men who all appealed, the bail in eacE

 APPEALS FROM
 TRUSTEES BILL

Katherine, Cecil Sanford Landers, who as Kitty Sanford was a leader in local society several years ago, is ag- grieved at a claim filed against the estate of her father, Samuel s. San ford, and has taken the matter to the Superior court. The case is listed in the court records as Katherine Land CTS appeal from probate.

Sanford estate. The other trustees are Henry Sanford of Ridgeheld, a son of the testator, and Henry T. Shel- ton, formerly of this city but now of Paris.

Washington, July 22-The regular cabinet meeting slated for today was not held because at the. last moment it was discovered that most of the secretaries were out of town. Pres1- dent Wilson denied himself to callers and remained in his study taking up state department reports and papers on the Mexican situation and consid- er1ng the proposed Nicaraguan treaty

ERIE REFUSES TO COME INTO NEGOTIATIONS Settlement Of Labor Difficulties Thereby
 Delayed Work of Mediators Has Not Passed Preliminary
 Stage

New York, July 22-The refusal of the Erie to join the other eastern railroads in laying it's difficulties with the conductors and trainmen before the Federal board of Mediation and Cancellation caused the board to eus- pend negotiations with the railroad managers conference committee and the representatives of the employees to- day and devote attention to this minor problem. The mediators reached this decision because the situation of the Erie line was considered pressing.
 The board suspended its formal con ference with the representatives of the labor organizations and invited J. C. Stuart, president of the Erie, to discuss the position of that road. MT. Stuart was told that the situa- ton required immediate action.
 Some of the labor leaders said that if the Erie maintained it's stand a strike would be declared on this line as soon as arbitration proceedings with the others were under way.
 The board this morning received 8 committee of 12 representing the two labor organizations and it is believed informed them that the managers at the final conference last night with the mediators had refused to withdraw their demand.
 At last nights meeting it is under stood that the mediators reported to the rePr Presentatives of the railroads that the employees would not consent to have the counter demands of the roads arbitrated along with the ori- gina1 demands of the conductors and trainmen for better pay and working conditions The managers insisted that their eight grievances be incor- porated in the articles for arbitration OH the ground that if they were not considered at this time they could not be taken up again during the contin- uation of any award made by the board of arbitration. The work of the mediators apparently has not passed the preliminary stage and it may be several days before they attain any definite results.

Jackson, Miss, July 22-Trapped by flames on the second floor of an an tiquated convict cage, 35 negroes, pris- oners, were burned to death at the Oakley convict farm, 20 miles from here late last night.
 While the flames rapidly ate away the old stairway leading to the second floor the prisoners frantical1y tore at the heavy bars that covered the jail windows but to no avail. Their screams brought guards and other prison attaches, but the flames drove hack members of the rescue party each time they attempted to liberate the negroes, who one by one fell back into the flames and perished- The building was constructed ten years ago

TELEPHONE LINE
ALMOST ASSURED

At the meeting of farmers east Of
town with Ranger Greathouse last
Monday afternoon in the Journal Of
flee it was decided to rush the erec-
ton of the Farmers telephone line to
completion.
There were eighteen farmers pres
ent, each taking All active interest in
the discussion OF the line, and not
even one dissenting OH the PROPOSE
tion. Ranger Greathouse made clear
the fact that the government will fur
nish all the poles free Of charge for
the erection of the line, and that the
forest service would build the line
from the Francisco ranch to the ran.
ger station ut its own expense.
\ subscription list was drawn mp
in which the line of route was desig-
mated as follows: Beginning at the
town of Judith Gap, situated in sec
tiOns 80 and 81 in ll-l6, it shall run
due east Il distance of 12 miles,
thence north one half mile, thence
east one mile. thence north one and
one half miles to the w. L. Neil
ranch, thence either diagonally or by
section lines to the W. NJ. Yaple
ranch on the half mile line betwe cen
sections 10 and II, ll-l7, thence east
to the Francisco ranch three-Qnarters
Of Il mile, thence diagonally northeast
to the ranger station three miles.
Then there will be Il number OF spurs
built from this main line so that not
to exceed twenty homes can be ac-
cOmmOdatpd on this single wire.
The list filled up rapidly. but Il few
more names were required before it
was thought advisable to start pro-
ceedings to incorporate the company.
Among the original imcorpOratOrs
OF the company will be found the
names Of: NJ. 4. Bascom, Dave

FREE USE POLICY
HAS BEEN CHANGED

The Free Use Permit for saw tim.
Der from the Snowy mountain dis.
trict of the Jefferson reserve has been
materially changed according to in
formation received from Ranger Ray
GreathOuse.
No more Free Use Permits will be
issued for saw timber. The ranger
will sell the saw timber to mill men
in the district, who in turn will sell
it to the public. Instructions will be
issued to the mill men to permit bona
lde settlers to log out the number Of
thousand feet each desires and to
work out the cost of 8; wing and
stumpage If such a thing is possible.
Otherwise charge Of approximately
$3.50 per thousand will be made for
stumpage and saving of dead timber
and an accordingly higher price for
green timber.
Anyone buying this timber from
the mill men can sell it on the open
market to whom he may desire. In
the past lumber secured under Il free
use permit had to be used ON the prem-
ises of the man holding the permit.
If the mill men become inclined to
charge eNorbitant prices for lumber.
the forestry officials will advocate
the return to the former policy. This
change has been made to accommodate
the settlers and in case it does not
work out for their good another
change may he expected.

SMALL POX EPIDEM.
IC BARELY AVERTED

Last week the town of Judith Gap
was almost seized in the throes of IL
small poN epidemic. This was
promptly averted by the quick action
of DIR. Cans. lie called upon county
health officer, II. B. Tice of TwOdOt,
and together they quarantined disin- {
fected and vaccinated to sufficient
extent to stem the tide of the dread
disease.
As nearly as can be learned at this
time the sickness started in the Fred
erick hotel. Mrs. A. w. Sarver was
called some time ago to the bedside
Of sick daughter at Sand COulee
and shortly after her return was TAX
en- ill. DR.. Gaus was summoned,
but was unable to diagnose the case
ut first sight, and was not assisted tC-
ward Il solution by being made ac-
quainted with the fact that the
daughter was suffering from small
poX. His services were dispensed
with and Mrs. Sarver finally broke
out with an up-to date case Of small
pOA.
This was not by far the end: the
family continued to operate their
hotel in the same building in which
the mother was i'll. The dining room
was situated within twenty feet from
where the sick woman lay. No pre-
cautions were taken and hO warnings
given. Inquiries as to how the sick
woman was were answered evasively.
Ii cne asked to see her lie was told
that she could not be seen.
The son, Roy, was taken i'll u few
days after returning from Il hunting
trip in company with George Kidder,
who has since been quarantined.
Roy seems to have disappeared. but
those who saw him before his depar-
ture are fully convinced that he has
been through case of small pox
wherever he may have gone. John
Erickson Il bartender ut Jacks Place
was the first one to be pronounced ill
with small pOx, and he broke quar-.
antine and went to Lewistown.
Charles Reed. Albert FalnhoIz's g
father-in-law,, went to the Fahnholz
ranch sick and within Il few days he
was broken out with small pox. Not
like the others, he knew ut once
where he contracted the disease, aud
sent his daughter to inform DIR. Cans
rs to where the origin Of the sickness
could be found. He had seen Mrs.
Sarver during talks for the lease Of
the hotel and noted the fact that her
face was covered with pimples, but
thought nothing of it. The last one
to be reported suffering is S. F.
Breeden. Contractor Sharp's carpen.
ter foreman, who was u boarder at
the Frederick. and who. upon feeling
i'll, went to Moore, where it Is very
probable he spread the disease further
before the doctors diagnosed his cas-. 1.
Criminal prosecution of the Sarver
family has been threatened, and may
be brought about yet. Many Il e
OF the opinion that it woul be
entirely wrong to do this as
it would only bring increased trouble
to Mrs. Sarver, who has always been
! hard working woman. but il the
prosecution of Mr.. Sarver could lie
brought about it would meet wi h
hearty approval from all sides. lie
has spared no time and pains to
denounce aud threaten the health
authorities for the action taken.
