At their camp by the Eagle Tal
mine. even though they held II still
and were heirs to half its gold. the
two pardners were glum and sorrow
full. The treacheries which Bud had
forgiven in a moment Of exaltation
came back to him now a. be brooded;
and he eyed his friend askance. a. II
wondering what he would do next.
He recalled all the circumstances Of
their quest-the meeting with Kruger.
Phil's insistence on the adventure. the
oath Of loyalty which they had sworn:
and then the gradual breaking down
Of their brOtherly devotion until now
they were strangers at heart.
Phil sat by himself. keeping his
thoughts to himself. and he stood aloof
while he waited for the worst to hap
pen.
From the first day of their under
taking Hooker had felt that It was un.
lucky, and now he knew that the end
was coming. His friend was lost to
him. lost alike to a sense Of loyalty
and honor: he gloomed by himself and
thought only Of Gracia Aragon.
The oath which Phil himself had
forced upon Bud was broken and for
gotten; but Bud. by a sterner standard.

alone could make him break this
word to Henry Kruger. The Eagle

In anticipation of this, work is being

The Mexican mines are located in the
rebel territory. and the coal, which is
being imported, is from the United
States, mostly from South Carolina.
The shutting of of this supply, as has
been ruInored, would probably embar-
%ass the government a good deal, as
& would necessitate application to
bnarkets further removed, thus delaying
receipts.
In line with President Huerta's an
nouncement that he would get money

Not Binding On Department of Justice.
Under this application the New
Haven will undoubtedly be granted an
opportunity to argue the business of
, its claim to keep the water lines before
the commission. No date had been set
tonight for hearing on the apphca-
ton, but the commission may take
such action shortly.
1t was pointed out tonight, however
that although this step by the New
Haven has put the matter of steamship
line ownership before the commission
il has no binding effect upon the de-
partment of justice. The department
is not negotiating with the New Hav-
en- over the Panama Canal act. but

the ownership Of the steamship lines
is in restraint of trade it can adopt

I this condition. At the same time. since

Trolley Problem Still UnsoIved.
With the announcement today that
the New Haven system had taken the
first step to bring before the Inter
state Commerce Commission the
question of it's retention of competing
steamship lines, it was said one diff
iculty had been removed from the
path of the negotiatoVs. The princi-
/ pal point in controversy when 1Ir. Ell
| lott left was understood to be the
disposition of the New Haven's troll

The New Haven brought the matter
of its ownership Of competing steam

Paris, Jan S.-The people of western
France were startled tonight by the
passage of an enormous meteor which
was first seen at Tours. The phenom-
enon took the form of an immense
train Of intense white flames rushing
across the sky at terrific speed. 1t
was accompanied by frequent and
deafeung explosions which broke win
dows. It was also observed att Mont
1ucon, Cholet and other places. and
appears to have fallen into the sea
beyond Paimpoi, on the English chan
mel, causing dlstur Dances in that dis
trict, which were mistaken for an
earthquake.
