DENVER, May 21.--The Denver Chamber
OF Commerce to-day sent a telegram to
President Wilson warning him that Judge

present mission in Washington In his ef-
fort to end the Colorado coal strike.
The message. which was approved and
adopted at n regular meeting OF the cham
Der. also declares that Lindsey Is a pre-
varicator and that his only object Is to
further his own political ambitions.
Almost simultaneously with the action
Of the Chamber OF Commerce came a
despatch from Washington telling Of
Judge Lindsey's visit at the white House
and that the President had held in his
arms one of the orphans of tho Ludlow
disaster. while he led another by the hand
Also Judge Lindsey sent telegram to
Denver newspaper declaring he had
great hope that the President would find
way 10 end the Industrial war that has
psralyzed Colorado.
The Real Estate Exchange OF Denver
also assailed Judge Lindsey to-day in
resolutions for statements he Is purported
to have made In regard TO the coal strike.
Friendly TO Ammons.
This action by the Chamber OF Com
merce and by the real estate body was
rot surprising. however. as Gov. Am
mons's chiefs advisers are members OF
these two organizations. both of which
arc friendly to the coal corporations.
The oourt.msr-tlal which tried Major
Patrick J. Hammock, who was in charge Of
the militia at the Ludlow battle where
two women and eleven children were
killed. made its finding to-day. The YER

Immediately after the end % the eNecu-
tlV. session at which the verdict was voted
In the Hammock case tho trial OF SIX other
officers was called. but Capt. Edward +.
Carson OF Troop A, who tcstined Il few
days ago that the tents were looted during
the Ludlow horror and that he could not
restrain the men under him. demanded a
separate trial. and this was granted The
taking or testimony In Carsons case was
begun Immediately.
Capt Carson H. charged with the same
offences for which Hammock was tried
murder, arson and larceny. The penalty
on conviction is death.
Rumora gained circulation throughout
the State to-day that the military COM
missions verdict was complete white
wash for Hammock. No member OF the
commission would comment on the rurors.

Sixty-seventh street. Philadelphia. and
Walter Lenhart. seventeen years old,
Of Merchantville. were arraigned in
the Camden police court on Q charge
of cruelty to animals. Eli Vanmeter

testified that be saw the horse balk In
the vicinity of Front and Vine streets.
A gentle tap Of the whip or urging
with the lines had no effect on the
beast, he said. but now and then the
horse would suddenly leap almost out
of the harness. He saw something
that looked like wire. and learned that
electricity was being used to start the
balky horse.
The Lenharts demonstrated In the
court room that the battery was only
strong enough to startle the horse and
not injure it. Recorder Stackhouse
could see no harm in the battery. hav-
ing often himself used electricity. but
not for the same purpose. and he dis
missed the case.

sic. her COW. near by. and settled her
self to spend happy summer in the

and seemed to be perfectly contented

something dreadful happened.
That Is why George A. H. Scott Of
the Illinois Humane society receit:ed
an anonymous telephone call to the'ef-
feet that II would be we'll to investi-
gate case of cruelty to animals In the
vicinity Of the Westward Ho Golf club.
Charles H. Brayne. an officer of the
society. was dispatched to investigate.
Near Mrs. Mylie's tent he came full
upon a vision Of flaming yellow. At
first he thought 1t was q brilliantly
painted sign. Then he saw that it was
alive. He approached fearfully. From
one end Of the yellow mass a pair of
horns protruded. from the other. alas!
there emerged all of what was left of
Bessie's once long and bushy tail.
"It's-it's q COW. isn't it," he asked.
pointing to the yellow object.
"Yes. that's Bessie" said Mrs.. Mylie.
Il had to make q yellow kimono for
her. poor thing. she was 30 uncomfort-

tail and whisked the flies away in .

envious. But the other night some
body slipped up and cut half her tail

Brayne wondered against whom the
cruelty charge should be placed.
