Th'' !nliuito i policy of ihe so-called citi

In Colorado. In thfct itale !t hafi not only
of iUeii bud full (-way, ljt it has been
allied in the exei.utlo'i cf lir edicts by the
executive w:tl iho Ml pjwer of the mili

tho simplo declination to mule; as t lb
wishes and what In I'.h Judgment consti
tuted the law, to have the governor ot the
stale order the troops to the most conven
ient point to execute what was accepled as
a deciee. Civil government has been set at
naught, and constitutional and natural
rights and guarantees wantonly trampled
under toot.
It was the evident purpose of that unholy
combination uf the eltisenn' alliance with
(Jovftrnor Feabody to d'-stioy thn independ
ence and manhood of the workmen of Colo

destroy oicanlaed labor cf li e state. Their

there are more workmen organl7.ed In Colo

hls'ory: that orgnntxatloi.fi formerly In ri

and a grevtter bond of unity and fiaternlty

We reiterate and emphaslza the declara
tion that we have no desire to be im
mune for the commission of any unlawful
acta, for we discountenance andl denounce
them, and recognise their commission as
wrongful and prejudicial to our own In
terests as well as to the public good. But
we must Insist that If any man connected
with our movement be charged with an un
lawful act that he rhould, like any other
man, be put upon his defence and befoie
a jury of his peers meet his accusers and
abide by the verdict rendered.
Ve protest against the clasi distinction
made in thete cases, so far as they apply
to labor, which even upon an ex parte alle
gation of our opponents renders a work
man punishable for an act which is held
as perfectly lawful when committed by
other. Surely we bave the right to d
' mand the constitutional guarantee of equal
ity before tha law. This guarantee is being
daily violated by Injunct.on. If labor la

OLD GARDNER IS MISSING
Joba Maokeo Suddenly Disappears
and His Friends Are Appre
hensive for Him.
Friends of John Macken, an old Irish
cardener, who has been boarding at the
house of Mrs. Dugan, Thirteenth and I'a
clflc streets, are alarmed about his disap
pearance and are trying to traco the way
In which he dropped out of sight more
than a wek ago. The fact that Macken
had something like $1,800 In cosh, which
he may have carried about his person,
makei them apprehensive that he may
have been robbed and pejhaps murdered.
Nothing has been seen of the old man,
whose age Is about 65. since a week ago
Sunday night. He has no relatives In
this part of the world and for a long time
Tiaa lived at the Dugan boarding house.
On the evening that he was Inst seen by
bis friends he was taken sick suddenly
an I a doctor was sent for. The friend
who tried to get a physician was gone
from the boarding houBe some time and
when he returned Macken was gone and
ao one could tell him what had become
of him. '
About three years ago Macken paid a
visit to his native land, Ireland, but did
not like the conditions and returned tc
Omaha, which haa been his home for
thirty years. He had been employed as
gardener by Herman Kountze a great deal.
Macken always attended Sunday morning
mass at St. Phllomena's cathedral, after
wards meeting with a few old' cronies.
tMMt Sunday morning when he did not
appear his friends became alarmed and
tried to And out what had happened to
him.
The theory Is ventured that one of the
doctors who were summoned might have
railed and removed the old man to a hos
pital, but If so no one has any knowl
edge of it.
BACK TO LAND OF SUNSHINE
Jadsre C. D. and Hubert Maeaulejr of
Dawson Visit Relatives la
Omaha.
C. D. Maoauley, or Hon.' Mr. Justice
Macauley of Dawson, Yukon territory, is
In Omaha enjoying the sunshine, which Is
not frequent enough in his place at this
time of year to be unwelcome.
Judge Macauley Is on his way to visit
the St. IxmiIo exposition, after which he
will go north to his old home at Belleville,
Ont., where he expects to stay over night
thft Is, the Klondiklan night and be with
friends and relatives for Christmas. With
him is Hubert Macauley, who is also
from Dawson. They are visiting the judge's
nephew in this city, Harry Macauley.
George Seay of the district court clerk's
office Is an old townsfellow.
"A big strike has been made this year
a the Anierlcsn stela," said the Judge,
"about 600 miles from us on the Tananu
river. This Is the first big strike made in
that district. Fairbanks Is a new town
about eight miles from the new field, and
It has grown from nothing since last
spring. It is now a flourishing town of
4,000 people. They are to have electrlo
lights the manager of a construction com
pany I nut In Ban Francisco told me he
had tha contract.- They have a telephone
system. Thla district first became spoken
of about a year ago.
. "But after all," continued the Judge with
pride, "no strikes have ever been made to
equal the Klondike. No new sensstlons
have occurred recently, but Dawson la still
turning out about $11060,000 annually."
Regarding the csndltlen of crime on the
Canadian ' side Judge Maoauley said no
serious crimes had been committed during
the last two years. Two hundred and
fifty of the mounted polios are stationed
there and no bad citizens have thought It
advisable to start anything.

GRUBER TELLS OF DELAYED TRAINS
In Hearts Regarding; Freight Hstes

age of Empty Cars Is
Great.
CHICAGO, Nov. 14.-The Interstate Com
merce commission today began taking tes
timony In three cases involving rates on
live stock from western and southwestern
points to Chicago and frminal points on
the Mississippi river. About $1,(M).000 a
year in freight rates is said to be at
stake.
J. M. Gruber of Omaha, general super
intendent of the I'nlon Pacific railway,
was a witness- today.
"The heaviest cattle shipments are made
about the same time of the year as the
dead freight shipments," said Mr. Gru
ber, "and In the same direction. This
makes the empty mileage on our cars,
which must be returned, very great. We
can but rarely maintain the schedule of
speed fixed for stock trains, and there Is
the added expense of caring for stock
which Is on the road longer, than It
should be. '
Mr. Gruber was closely questioned re
garding the inability to run the stock
trains through on time on account of den
sity of traffic, when, by his own admission,
passenger trains maintained a schedule of
twenty-eight to forty-two miles per hour.
"Why is it more expensive to run these
trains fast or slow?" asked Mr. Prouty.
"Of course fast running Is more ex
pensive on account of fuel and wear of
machinery," replied the witness.
"Then you are really saving money by
this inability to keep up to the schedule
with these trains, are you not?" he was
asked.
"No. The trains run as fast as required
between stations, but are compelled to
wait at sidings and stations for other
trains to pass."
W. D. Lincoln, car service agent, and
John A. Monroe, freight traffic manager of
the Union Pacific railroad, testified that
conditions and expenses In the last few
yearn had made certain rateg neces
sary. Stock trains, Mr. Lincoln said, de
layed passenger trains more than any other
kind of freight trains and for this reason
alone were an Item of expense.
Asked regarding the "terminal rate"
charged for cars switched Into the stock
yards, Mr. Monroe said:
"This rate Is an extra charge for an ex
tra service and has no bearing on the case
whatever. Anyhow, the adding of $2 would
not take our charge from tho reasonable
and place it In the unreasonable list."
"It would If It was added often enough,"
suggested Commissioner Prouty,
"The rates In many cases are too low as
It Is," declared Mr. Monroe. And these
rates are not the result of combination but
are the result of competition of the ex
cessive and unrestrained sort. They have
been made at conferences and these con
ferences mean that the lowest rate men
tioned sets the pace for everybody else, the
other rates are levelled down to conform
with it."
"Doesn't a conference generally result In
a 'leveling up' Instead of a 'leveling down?
Inquired Commissioner Prouty.
"No, sir," replied the witness. "Such has
not been my experience and I have noticed
that the more conferences we have the
more trouble we experience."
The examination will be continued tomor
row. IRRIGATION CONGRESS BEGINS

PHYSICIANS EVERYWHERE
Know the Value of Pyramid Pile Core
"Gratitude alone prompts me to testify
to the efficacy of Pyramid, Pile Cure. Last
March I bought a dollar package at the
drug store, which cured me of bleeding piles,
and I was a sufferer from them for eight
years; but I 'had not been troubled with
them since, until last September, when I
gave birth to a baby girl, and after th 't I
had a very severe case of protruding piles,
which a trained nurse said was the worst
casd she ever saw, and my doctor told
me to get Pyramid Pile Cure again, which
I did and was completely cured In three
days. I have not had piles of any kind
since, and It Is all owing to this wonderful
remedy. My nurse took a box, which I was
gill to be able to give her, for I know she
will be able to help lots of suffering people
whom I never could see or know.
"I recommend "Pyramids" wherever I
know of anyone suffering as I did. It gives
me great pleasure to be able to say I am
entirely cured, which my doctor says Is
true. I say God Bless Pyramid Pile Cure."
From a former greit sufferer, Mrs. F.
Ancott, 1206 Unity St., Frank ford, Philadel
phia. Pa.
'This remedy, which Is sold by druggists
generally, In fifty cent and dollar packages,
Is In a suppository form, is applied directly

DAMAGE BY STORM
(Continued from First Page.)
wire communication continued almost us
complete as at any time during the height
of the storm. Up to 10 o'clock many places
were completely isolated, while whole sec
tions were reached only by most rlrcultuous
routes. To the west th,e only points having
direct communication with New York were
Philadelphia and Boston. The Associated
Press, however, had succeeded in reaching
the west ( and, incidentally, many eastern
points by means of a telephone wire be
tween Boston and Chicago. The news re
port curried over the rrguiar wires between
New York and Baltimore when it reached
the latter city was transferred a distance
of ten blocks to the telephone office by
cabs, was then forwarded by telegraph to
Chicugo over a long distance telephone wire
and from Chicago was telegraphed back to
Washington and other cities which could
not be entered over the regulur routes.
The same plan was followed In mnny other
cases. For Instance, the Associated Press'
regular New York state circuit, a network
of wires connecting all the principal cities
of the state, was practically out of service
for a time. Newburgh, to the north, marked
the end of the circuit, points beyond being
completely cut off. Finally, however, a
temporary circuit was set up by forming
a connecting link between Cleveland and
Buffalo. From Buffalo the report was re
layed down through the state as far as
Utlca. At that point, however, wire pa
ralysis again was encountered, leaving
Amsterdam, Schenectady, Albany nnd Troy
completely cut off from the outside world.
The only reports received from that sec
tion of the state today came by train from
Albany. Four Inches of wet snow had
broken down telegraph, telephone, electric
light and fire alarm wires in Albany and
vicinity, and badly hampered street car
and train service.
Situation Improves Slowly,
The first direct communication with
northern and western New York was ob
tained during the afternoon, when a single
uninterrupted line was forced through to
Albany by the-Western 1'nlorr. -"
So complete was the; prostration of wires i
through the sections where the effect of I
the storm was most seriously felt, that
conditions had Improved but little this aft
ernoon. Some progress was made but the
damage was so extensive that the work
progressed with tedious slowness. An idea
of the conditions, with which repair crews
were obliged to contend, Is shown by the
experience of Western Union Workmen near
the New Jersey-Pennsylvania state line. In
the single stretch from Dover, N. J., to
Scranton, Pa., 180 telegraph poles had been
toppled over by the gale. To raise these
poles and straighten out the tangled use
less wires and re-establish communication
was the work of many hours.
Hew Knslinil Wires Down.
While the effect of the storm was not so
severe In New England, some points In that
section felt the full force of the gale. Wires
were down in all parts of Maine. Some
points on Cape Cod could not be reached
by wire early in the day, and Plttsfleid In
the Berkshires, was cut off entirely from
both New York and Boston.
Wire service to many points In eastern
Canada, which was swept by the storm,
also was disabled.
Operations in Wall street were curtailed
today by reason of yesterday's storm. At
the opening of the stock market the Stock
Exchange branch of the Western Union
Telegraph company had only a few direct
wires working. These were to Philadelphia
on the south and Hartford and Boston on
the eaBt. Western snd southwestern wires
were still down, as were all wires south of
Baltimore. All messages were sccepted
subject to delsy. At no time since 1838
has the Wall street business of the tele
graph companies been so badly crippled. A
small army of linemen were sent out di
rectly sfter day break and it is said that
all the damage will be repaired by the
Western Union. The local telephone serv
ice was not seriously Interrupted by the
storm, Uut there was no communication
over the telephones to such points as Phil
adelphia and Albany,
Storm Center Moves North.
BOSTON, Nov. 14. The fierce southern
stoim which started off the Florida coast
on Saturday and swept up the Atlantic
sen board passed over the maritime prov
inces today and tonight and had its center
off Cape Race, N. F. The storm In the
provinces, particularly along the peninsula
of Nova Scotia, was attended with terrific
galea and an unusually low barometer, the
glass at Halifax today showing a mark of
28.6.
Telegraphic and telephonic communica
tion with the provinces is interrupted and
what newa came east filtered through
during the day by a most circuitous route.
Tonight there Is no wire communication
north or east of Watervllle, Me., and all
telegraphlo eonnectlons between this city
and points In Vermont Is suspended. At
8:40 o'clock tonight the New England Tele
phone company got Us first wire since the
storm began, through to Burlington. As ,

repo'ta have been received here from points
along the New England coast regarding
the ravages of the storm, a remarkably
small number of marine dimeters was
noted. Bo fai as known tonight only two
vessels were wrecked, the Rockland
schooner Arcularlus, which went ashore
off the Tarpaulin Cove lighthouse nn Nau
shon island, and another Rnrkltnd schooner,
the Nautilus, which broke Its bsck across
the new Dog bar breakwater, Gloucester
harbor. In neither rase was there any loss
of life.
The chief damage attributable to the
storm was the crippling of telephonic, tele
graphic and electric light service through
out northern snd eastern New England.
Throughout the entire area of Maine, New
Hampshire and Vermont the course of the
telegraph and telephone lines is marked
br hundreds of poles that were blown
down.
One of the most singular effects of the
gale wss reported from Pennellvllle. Me.
where a whale eighty feet long was blown
ashore. Unable to get back Into deep water.
the great creature lay helpless on the
beach and a bullet from a hunter's rifle
ended Its life.
Clear and cold weather followed In the
wake of the storm. At the local station of
the United States weather bureau the fore
caster announced tonight that no further
atmospherlo disturbances were in sight.
Wind and Snow In Vlrsrlnla.
NORFOLK. Va., Nov. 14.-The center of
the gulf storm struck Norfolk yesterday
with a velocity of forty-seven miles an
hour.
On the coast the wind was much
stronger and nil wires between Norfolk
and Cape Hatteraa are prostrated.
Pnow and sleet accompanied the blow
snd the barometer registered 28.85, with
one exception the lowest In the past thirty-two
years. Fears are held for the
schooner Mlra W. Spear, sshore nenr
Chlcamicomlco. Wrecking tugs have gone
to Its assistance. A large schooner dragged
anchor nenr Ocean View during the height
of the storm and was rapidly nearlng
breakers when a tug reached It and towed
it Into deep water.
Trouble at Baltimore.
BALTIMORE, Nov. 14. In consequence
of yesterday's storm many of the tele
graph and telephone lines are still down
and there is a serious Interruption In the
ordinary transaction of business. Tele
graphic communication has not yet teen
re-established with Washington and the
south and the west and north, but the
Western Union and Postal Telegraph com
panies expect to be able to part ally re
sume business during the day. The only
long distance telephone Is that to Chicago.
News received from Chicago over the tele
phone wire states that communication has
been established from Cleveland eaatward
as far as Utlca, N. Y., and Chicago alsj
reported that telegraphic communication
has been established between that city
and Washington. No report has been re
ceived from Washington as to the pros
pective Improvement of telegraphic condi
tions south of that city. A strong wind
Is blowing here, but there is promise of
clear weather.
Big Liner Asrronad.
PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 14.-The Ameri
can line steumer Merlon, from Liverpool
and Queenstown for this port, which went
aground on Chester Island flats In the Del
aware river, fourteen miles below this city
during the severe snowstorm of Sunday
afternoon, was still fast In the mud at a
late hour tonight. The 1,000 passengers who
were compelled to remain on the big liner
all night were taken off by the river steam
boat Columbia this afternoon and landed
at the American line pier in this city. Hun
dreds of relatives and friends of the be
lated passengers who expected the Merlon
to dock yesterday were at the pier to greet
the voyagers.
The Merlon lies with Its bow burled deep
In the mud and so far as known has sus
tained no damage. Tugs have been at
work ever since the steamship went
aground but have not succeeded In moving
the big vessel. A lighter was towed along
side the ship and considerable cargo has
been unloaded.
Snow In Pennsylvania.
YORK, Pa., Nov. 14. Nearly twelve
Inches of snow fell here yesterday. The
heavy weight of the snow broke down ele&
trie wires all over the city and both power
plants here were compelled to close to pro
tect life and property. As a result the
citw was without power and light cur
rent last night and the greater part oi
today. This, city has been without tele
graph or telephone communication with
tho outside world since last evening. Hun
dreds of telephone poles and trees litter
the highways of this city and county.
Ohio Storm Is Fatal.
CLEVELAND, Nov. 14. The rterc? storm
that prevailed over Lake Erie and noith
ern Ohio throughout last night resulted In
the death of at least one person and the
serious Injury of three others in this city,
while the property loss Is considerable.
Captain Dell Mlney of Boston lost hi 1 te
by the foundering of the tug Gregory at
the mouth of the river during the he ght
of the storm. His body has not been re
covered. An unknown man, supposed to
have been temporarily blinded by flying
dust and cinders, was struck by an Er.e
passenger train and his skull frsctured.
He will probably die. Jacob Mushowlck
was thrown against a fenoe and severely
cut and bruised. John Slutlkash, watch
man at tne new nockeieuer nullum, was
struck by a flying board. He was inter
nally injured and suffered a broken leg.
No vessels arrived during the night. The
steamer my or ane, rrom uurxaio, cam
in this morning, an hour late, and re
ported the heaviest (ea of the year running
in Lake Erie.
Great damage was wrought to telephone
and telegraph wires In all dlreclloi s. Many
poles were blrwn down or prostrated by
falling tree?.

NEWPORT NEWS, Nov: 14-The barom
eter here early today went down to 28. 63,
