TAKES TO RAILROAD
TRACK WITH TEAM
HANOVER FARMER, SEEKING
THE SHORTEST ROUTE, GETS
INTO MUCH TROUBLE.

Jeff Jones, f1fty-seven years old. q
farmer who lives UP Hanover way,
wanted to get home early yesterday
afternoon because he had a lot OF
fresh meat in his wagon. and decided
that the shortest and quickest route
would be up the tracks of the Rich
mond, Fredericksburg and Potomac
railway. He turned on to the rail
way tracks at Bowe and Broad
streets, and has gone but a short dis
lance when Policeman Hulcher hail
ed him. Just then a yard engine
hove into sight. and Jones and the po-
lioeman backed horse and vehicle out
of harms way.
In his short journey on the railway
tracks Jones managed to run over
and break signal lamp, and there
was much jolting for his tired system
as his wagon bumped along over the
ties. But Jones didn't seem to mind
perhaps because Of the good old
''Iicker" he Is said to taken into his
system.
When he got to the Second station
three charges were placed against
him. The first was for imbibfng toe
much. the second for destroying
property of the railway company, and
the third for contempt of court. An
attachment had been issued for him
some time ago, and 1t was found
among the dusty files and resurrected
for the benefit of the unfortunate
Jones.

have already been offered by individual
shops ranging from ten to twenty per
Gent.
The manufacturers have insisted that
they were willing to discuss grievances
with their working forces at any time,
but they have refused most emphati.

committee remains firm. after the
speeches at Haledon tomorrow, the
l. W. w will have lost out in the

CITY DOCK CLAIMS
ITS THIRD VICTIM
THIS NUMBER HAVE NET THEIR
FATE IN BASIN WITHIN THE
LAST THREE WEEKS.

As the third victim which has been
claimed by the dock within the last
three weeks the body OF Louis Werst.
forty years old. of 200 North Twentieth
street. was found at $40 o'clock yes
terday afternoon in the dock at the
foot of Nineteenth street
The body was recovered by Patrick
McDonough and David katz, who had
been dragging the waters since their
friend had disappeared. After being
viewed by Coroner Taylor. who decided
that an inquest would not be neces-
sary. the body was turned over to
Undertaken Billups.
Werst was last seen by girl at
o'clock Friday afternoon. when he was
sitting on the south side OF the dock
apparently asleep. A few minutes
later. when the girl looked again,
Werst was struggling in the water.
She heard him cry feebly several times
for help, but there was no assistance
disappeared She gave the alarm az
soon as she could, but 1t was not until
yesterday that search for the body
was made.
Werst was employed as harness
maker by the Virginia Shoe company.
1t is said that he had been drinking
heavily on the day OF hts death.
In spite OF innumerable deaths In
the dock; in spite of the protestations
OF Coroner Taylor, who characterixes
the dock as death trap; in spite of
appeals from the police. the city coun-
ell has never needed word in plea to
have a fence constructed around the
dock. A record of the people who have
met their death in the waters of the
dock would be startling. Since the
city council has turned a deaf ear to
frequent requests to have the dock
fenced in. the matter may be taken
before the administrative board. which
has power to authorize the work to
be done.

ALL THESE PEOPLE
ASKED Mr.. BOWMAN
OVER ONE HUNDRED RICHMOND
ERS HAD HIM ARRANGE
THEIR TOURS ABROAD.

Would II surprise you to learn that
113 Richmond people have sailed with
in the past ten days to spend their va
cations in foreign lands? OF course
others have sailed previously and
still others probably will go later in
the summer and fall on pleasure bent.
but the mere fact that there are that
many persons in a small city who can
afford to spend vacations abroad Is
interesting for more reasons than one
for one it is an indication OF pros
perity.
Thousands of Richmonders go to
the seashore and mountain resorts
Of this and other States every summer
and many have summer homes. but
the number who seek recreation in
foreign travel is yearly increasing.
Fortunately, Richmond affords facii-
tiles for planning and booking foreign
tours that few if any cities in the
South can boast of.
The foreign travel department OF the
Richmond Trust and Savings com
pany, under the direction of Mr.. Bow
man. arranges all the tours for Rich
mond people--or anybody else who
wants to go abroad-down to the
minutest detail OF tickets baggage,
berth. travellers cheques. meals and
guides, and the traveller has only to
enjoy himself without the worry and
annoyance these details would cause II
he had to attend to them himself.
The system Is now so complete that
Mr.. Bowman can arrange tour for
an unprotected woman around the
world and the traveller would be as
safe and free from care as IL she had
an escort along to look after the de-
tails.
Following is a list of the Rich
monders who have sailed within the
past ten days to spend vacations

ARBITRATION DEMAND
MADE BY COLUMBIA
Old Grievance in Connection With
Establishment Of Republic Of Pan
ana Laid Before Mr.. Bryan.

The government of Colombia recently
has made fresh representations at WASH
ington. presenting once more its griev-
ance in connection with the revolution
on the Isthmus of Panama, which re-
7ulted in the Republic of Panama. Secre-
tary Bryan is considering the Colombian
views
This matter has been repeatedly
thrashed out by Republican administra-
tons since 1906. but the attacks upon
the acts of the United States government
at that time by Democrats have encour-
aged the Colombisns to hope for salts
faction from the Democratic administra
ton. II is understood that they have
asked for the submission Of the entire
question to arbitration,
This was the Colombian demand made
during the Taft administration. Mr..
Knox then refused to entertain such a
demand. He held that arbitration of the
issue was utterly impossible, inasmuch
as IL would not only throw into jeopardy
the rights of the United States in what
is now the Canal Zone, but also jeop-
ardize the integrity and independence o.
the Republic of Panama.
Various compromise proposals were
submitted to the Colombian government
by Mr.. Knox. but all were refused.
1t is generally understood that Mr..
Bryan is anxious to do something for
Colombia. but it is not believed that he
will go TO the length of agreeing to sub
nit to arbitration.
