 B0At1 EXPULSION
Correspondents Friends Are Prepar- ing for a Congressional
 investigation.

WASHINGTON, July 1S.-The friends of Fred Boalt have started the work of securing congression- al investigation of the expulsion of the United Press correspondent from Vera Cruz because of sensational ar ticles sent out by Boalt to his papers.
 It is being whispered about that when the full story is told that sev- eral high army and navy officials will have to do considerable explaining. Several attorneys are now in this city preparing for the presentation of the case and will meet Boalt at New York upon his arrival, after which they will accompany him to Washington and present the evidence to some friendly congressman, who will ask for an investigation, mak- ing the charge that the officials are covering up the real conditions in Vera Cruz. .
 A number of refugees forced to leave Vera Cruz by the military au- thorities have offered their evidence to the attorneys for the United Press. .s. ..,

RAILROADS ASK
 FEDERAL RAllt- AID To Prevent Engineers and Firemen Going On Strike-Say Demands Are Too Large.

CHICAGO, July 1S.-The manag- CTS of the western railroads, the en- gineers and trainmen of which have threatened to strike unless gran ed large increase in wages, have ap- pealed to the government for aid and have asked the federal authorities to mediate the trouble between the management and the men. The of ficials of the roads claim that the increase demanded is out of all pro portion to the work done and to the earnings of the roads, and that if granted the increased burden will force the roads to ask for an increase in freight and passenger rates.
 The engineers and firemen, how ever, have refused the offers of me diation or arbitration and insist that unless granted the increase demand ed all roads west of Chicago will be closed down. Because of the attitude of the men the companies have or dered that .strtkebrefkefs be assem- bled in the East ready for work if necessary, but are still sttil hopeful that the strike can be avoided.

Mayor of St. Louis saxs He W!l' Take Over the Plants. if Thay
 Are Not Good.

ST. LOUIS,> July 18.-Because. st the hot spell of the past three weeks the ice trust have been steadily ra1s- ing the price of ice until today 1t IS twice what it was at the beginning of July. The city authorities have notified the trust that unless the nrice is cut in half immediately the police will take charge of the plants and manufacture the ice and will al so distribute the ice brought here in boats from up river points.
 The district attorney has already started an investigation and may ask for the indictment of the officials of the trust for violating the antitrust law. The manager issued state ment today saying that the raise in the price of ice was necessary be- cause of the large loss during the intense hot weather, as fully one third of the load is lost during dis 1ribution and that this heavy loss accounts for the present high prices. The people, however, are inclined to think that the high prices are regu- lated by the necessity of the citizens for ice.

MINEOLA, N.

 Many friends of the woman have offered her financial aid to fight for her life and several of the best known criminal attorneys have been retained to make her defense. It is generally believed here that no conviction will follow because of the relations which are now believed to have existed between the doctor and his patient, which was disclosed to Mrs. arman when she installed a dictograph in his office and over heard he conversation between Mrs. Bailey and her husband. ,,
