CHICAGO SHIPPER
BOOSTS WAITE RNAY
PORTLAND CEMENT MAN SAYS
CANALS WILL BE OF GREAT.
EST Benefit TO ALL.

Chicago, March pa letter bear.
ing on the value Of the proposed nine
foot waterway in the Illinois river dis
trict has been sent to every member
of the state legislature by Norman D.
Fraser, president of the Chicago Port
land Cement Co. In it Mr.. Fraser
says:
"One hundred thousand tons is ap.
proximately the amount Of Portland
cement we would ship every year on
barge canal from the Illinois river
to Chicago. This estimate is based on
present conditions. If our tonnage
did not double in a year or two after
the completion of the canal we would
be greatly disappointed.
"The request Of the railroads for
permission to lower their rates to the
Pacific coast in order to meet Panama
route competition is the best argu-
ment we know for the improvement of
our inland waterways. The railroads
admit the fact that it is much cheaper
to transport by water. Therefore, II
water routes afford cheaper method
of transportation, isn't it up to us to
improve the water route which we al
ready have?"

SINKING STEAMER
ABANDONED At SEA
TEN SHIPS HURRY TO AID OF
THREATENED CREW At CALL
OF THE WIRELESS.

New York, March 24.-The Mallory
line, owners of the American steamer
Denver, received confirmation today OF
the wireless message sent last night
from the steamer st. Louis announcing
that the Denver's crew had been taken
of and the Denver had been abandon.
ed 1900 miles east of New York.
This confirmation came in wireless
message from Captain Avery of the
Denver The message said that the
Denver had been abandoned In sink
ing condition and that Captain Avery
and his crew were aboard the Atlantic
transport liner Megantic and would
reach this port next Saturday.
The Megantlc was one Of ten vessels
which hurried to the stricken steamer
when she first sent out her wireless
call. The first to reach her was the
Manhattan. The st. Louis was next
sighting the Denver after a search OF
21 hours. Apparently twenty-rour
hours or more elapsed from the send
ing of the first call for help and the
rescue of the Denver's crew.

U. s. Army General Ends
Rebellion Without the
Firing of a Shot
DIMES AT HOTEL
WITH PRISONERS
Four Hostiles Wander About
in City and See Trains
for the First Time

Thompsons, Utah, March 24-Seated
at the head Of the table, Brigadier
General Hugh l.. Scott, chief of staff
Of the United States army, at the little
hotel at Thompsons, served four docile
and happy Indians at dinner last night.
A few days ago those Indians were
accounted the blood thirsty leaders of
q vicious and desperate band of out
laws. The Indians were Old Polk,
chief of one Of the divisions of the
renegade Piutes: Tse-Ne-Gat, son of
Old Polk, who is charged with mur-
der; Old Posey, ohisf Of the other d.
vision of renegades, and son of
Posey. All of the Indians referred to
General Scott In their Piute tongue as
their Good White Father. The gen.
eral insisted that the Indians were no
prisoners, but "Just his boys" The
Indians were bubbling over with de-
light when the general insisted that he
and the Indians be given separate
table away from the white folks
Not a handcuff, not a shackle, binds
these Indians, but the tie of genuine
regard for General Scott is such that
1t would probably take a posse larger
than that which Marshal Nebeker
brought to Bluff to drive them from
him.
After they had eaten the Indians
were supplied with cigarettes by Gen
eral Scott and then permitted to wan
der about with perfect freedom. The
generals only concern was that the
Indians might get run over by train.
They had never seen railway train
before and can hardly resist the temp.
tation to get close to the cars. The
Indians had their first automobile ride
coming from Moab today and they are
looking forward with eagerness to
their first train ride, which will begin
when they start for Salt Lake.
General Scott's story Of the pacifica-
tion of the Indians, told reporter, fol-
lows:
1--WE left Washington to come out
here to attempt to settle this little
mess on March 3. With me were
Lieutenant Colonel E. l.. Niche, my
aid de camp, and Trooper P. R. Ran
dolph of the Fifth cavalry, my orderly.
We reached Thompsons on March 8,
and went to Bluff, going by automo-
bile, wagon, sleigh, horseback and on
foot. At Bluff we learned that Polk

Berlin, March 24.-(By wireless to
Sayville e)-Reports from the Car
pathian mountains indicate that one of
the greatest and most sanguinary bat
ties of the campaign is now raging. A
special correspondent of the Lokal
Anzeiger telegraphs:
''The great bloody battle is now in
full swing in the Carpathians 1t has
not yet reached point where a
definite judgment can be passed on
the events at any point. The conflict
is likely to be waged some days yet
with equal fierceness by both Sides
