and will In nil probability have to bo disposed
of before the case of tlio employes can betaken
taken up. This will give the men and
their attorneys a week In which to prepare
for the hearing. From now on the caao will
be watched with oven moro Intereat In the
railroad world than over before , for It marks
an entirely now departure In scttlliiR dim-
cuttles of this nharnntcr.
CONSUl/TINO THKIll ATTOItNBYS.
The afternoon developed very little that
was now , and nothing that was startling In
the railroad situation. The men put In the
tlmo quietly caucusing among themselves
and In the evening hold a Joint mooting of
nil the representatives at the hall In the
I'ntterson block. George U Hodges of Den
ver , ono of the attorneys for the men , ar
rived In the afternoon , and ho and Judge
danlt were present at the conference. The
situation was thoroughly gone over and the
plans of the men when the case s called In
court will be fully matured and they will be
ready for the fray. In conversation with
Judge Oantt last evening that gentleman
stated that ho did not know when the case
would bo called up. but It was generally
understood that It would bo next on the
docket after the Denver & Gulf case. Mr.
Gantt stated that ho understood that case
was not likely to occupy more than ono day
In the hearing , and In this event the case of
the employes would bo called up early In the
week. The men will bo represented by Judge
Oantt and George L. Hodges , who have been
In the case from the start , and T. W. Harper
of Terre Haute , Ind. , who Is the special
counsel of the firemen. Thuy are now all on
the ground and are actively engaged with
tho' men In preparing for the trial.
WIU , A1IIDB Y COUHTS FINDING.
In regard , to the strike story , Mr. Vrotnan
said that It WBH all pure fabrication , that
nothlnc was Said at the meeting concerning
a strike or any language used that was In
tended to convey that Idea or anything that
could bo distorted Into that meaning , r 10
men themselves had taken the case Into the
-courts. They were not forced there , but
wont there for redress from choice , and they
bad no reason as yet , at least , to regret that
choice. The failure of the confcrenca to
accomplish results could not bo the cause
of at' } ' disappointment from the men , us
that result had been a foregone conclusion
from the stand Mr. Clark had taken In re
gard to the limitations placed upon the
scope of the conference. If anything was
needed to confirm this opinion of the men
It was not lacking In the position the officers
of the road took at the very first session
of the hearing In sticking to the terms of
the Uundy order' almost absolutely. The
hearing had been commenced after Mr. Clark
sent the men his letter at the outset for the
solo reason that the court had ordered them
to como before Mr. Clark for that purpose ,
and having placed their cause in the hands
of the court they did not wish to put them
selves In the attitude of disobeying Its man
dates'at the very outset. They had Invoked
the law and by the law they would stander
or fall. They had every confidence that
Judges Caldwell and Sampson would treat
the case fairly and do Justice to all parties
concerned.

CHICAGO , March 23. ( Special Telegram
to The Hoc. ) Western lines have all taken
sides with the Atchlson or the Northwestern
In the controversy over rates. An official of
ono of them gave the following statement
of the case today :
"At today's meeting It was the general
feeling that Inasmuch as the Santa Fo
company had reduced the rates from Chicago
cage to California destinations , and from
the Missouri river to California destinations ,
and vice versa , wjthout conference with or
consent of their competitors , but on account
of some local difficulty with the Southern
Pacific line , over which their competitors
had not the slightest control , that It was
only proper for the Santa Fo company , now
that wo were advlecd that they had settled
uiuso uimcuiiics ) mnicnuiy , ID uiuiu uu wnui
date they would bo willing to put back the
rates to the figures from which they had
reduced them , and with this In view a reso
lution asking the Santa Fo to do this wax
put through and the chairman called upon
the Santa Fo company. The representatives
of the Santa Fc company. In view of the
telegram received from Mr , Lomax , declined
to further discuss or consider the California
rate situation.
LOMAX POSITION LOGICAL.
"Tho position taken by Mr. Lomax and the
position taken by the Western Passenger
association Is perfectly consistent. When
rates are restored to normal figures they
must be restored on a given date from all
parts of the country. You will readily ap
preciate the necessity of this. Take for
example the situation at Chicago. Wo cannot - ,
not maintain the normal rate of $72.60 on
April 1 , April G or April 10 If the rate from
Fort Wayne through Chicago Is $37.50. This
Is not even good nonsense. It Is contrary
to the Interstate commerce law , to general
usage , and It would facilitate a largo sized
scalp on the Chicago market. The same con
ditions apply to the Missouri river. The
transmlssourl lines cannot possibly maintain
a higher rate from Missouri river than rates
of like class from points this side of the
Missouri rjyer and appjled through the Mis
souri river gateways. "
LEFT WITH THE CHAIRMAN.
Today's meeting of western Hues accom
plished absolutely nothing toward an Increase
in. passenger rates. On the other hand the
situation was loft In n mo.re unfavorable state
than ever for the contemplated advance. The
Atchlson was not represented at the meeting.
It having learned the Northwestern would
not hold Itself responsible for castbound rates
made In connection with the Union Pacific ,
although It assumed * all responsibility for
the westpound rates. The Atchlson refuses
any advance until It learns Just which lines
are responsible for the maintenance of rates
and secures definite agreement that the acl-
vnnen rntos will not be inanloulated.
The whole matter was put In the hands of
Chairman Caldwell , who will confer with the
Atchlson and try to propose something defi
nite for an adjourned meeting to be held
tomorrow afternoon.

SOME PORTR-flaiS OF GRANT.
lutcrciUnR Detail * About Illustrations In
, the "Century Wur Hook. "
Especially Interesting among the illustra
tions ot the " - "
"Century-War Book" are those
which deal with the uniforms and faces of
famous old regular army people.
Those who recall the well known painting
by Emmanuel Leutzo , which pictures a scene
In the 'Mexican war , ofyhlch General then
Lleutgna'nt U. S. Grant was the hero , will
bo BoniQwlmt disappointed at a reproduction
of a "photograph' ot that time. It shows
Lieutenant Grant In the Ill-fitting and ab
surdly boyish appearing clothes peculiar to
the old service. ' '
The beardless young officer stands with
ono arm thrown over the neck of a dlmlmi-
ttvo horse. Alongside stands General Alex
ander Hays , also .a Mexican warrior ' , holding
another horse by the bridle , 'ills more
manly figure Is also clothed In qucerly made
garments. ' ,
Lieutenant Or ant wears ono of the old-
style Sanfofd & Morton overhanging flat
cloth caps with a limp leather visor. A
thick wisp of hair falls untidily over the
right car. ' A broad white starched collar
droops over a high stock ot patent leather.
A single row of. brass eagle buttons runs
from neck to waist of a tight-chested , bell-
skirted frock coat. A broad light stripe
runs down the alile of the trousers leg.
A small .likeness copied from ono worn by
Mrs. Grant on a wristlet Is also given In tlio
same work. Tho'original was made shortly
before Grant's resignation from the army
prior to tHe civil war , , and represents him
as a smooth but .stern-faced young captain.
A third portrait of General Grant in from
a photograph taken In I8C1. Grant was
then a brigadier , and had begun to bo talked
about. He' sits with both hands clasping
his sword , which rests across his lap. On
his head Is one ot the large , ungainly , soft
slouch hats then fashionable In army circles.
Ono side of the brim Is caught up to the
crown by u rosette. The beard IB long and
heavy and the face wears an air ot settled
purposj , -
There are several other portraits of the
old commander In the work , and old soldiers
who served under him express unbounded
satisfaction In studying these vtvtd glimpses
of their dead leader. The pictures are ab
solutely faithful to the originals , as is the
case with all work bearing the Century Im
print.
The now popular edition of "Tho Century
War Book , " In which the above-mentioned
pictures afo presented among 900 others
equally as Interesting alike to veterans and
readers of history , Is now being Issued by

preliminary enthusiasm already awakened by
the announcement Is remarkable. Authori
ties upon book distribution predict a circu
lation numbering millions , and ono which

CHARLESTON , W. Va , , March 23. The
Itadford murderer , Wash Adklns , the Clc-
man murderer , John Griffith , nnd Dave
Wells and John U. Gibson , two rioters held
under charge of murder In the first degree
for killing Adklns In the riot of February
28 , were brought here today by Deputy
Sheriff Walker and four deputies , all armed
with Winchesters. They smuggled them
through secretly In a Chesapeake & Ohio
baggage car and lodged them In Jail. This
move was to keep the miners from liberat
ing them. Last night a mob ot twenty
armed men , going to Fayettovlllo to break
the Jail , stopped at Fayette station to wait
for reinforcements , all of which did not
como. SherllT Walker , In endeavoring to
get to the Jail to protect It from the mob ,
was held up at the muzzles of twenty
Winchesters for two hours nt Fayette station ,
but finally , his Identity not being known
and reinforcements not arriving , ho was
turned loose. The mob dispersed with the
understanding that another attempt would
be made today. This was frustrated by the
prompt action of Walker , who Is the only
county officer left In the neighborhood and
says they could have accomplished their pur
pose last night If they had kept on. The
mob does not know the men have been
moved. It Is In nn ugly mood , but the
sheriff fears no trouble/

MINNEAPOLIS , March 23. A special to
the Journal from Duluth says that the fact
that the injunction suit of tbo Mcrrltts
against the American Steel Barge company
was not heard In New York yesterday ,
neither of the parties appearing , is explained
here by the assertion that negotiations ore
in progress for a settlement of the dffficulty.
The latest deal Involves the formation of a
syndicate which Is to satisfy the obligations
of the Merrltts to the Hockefeller people and
thus redeem a majority of the sto'cH In the
Mesaba Consolidate ! mines , now held by
Hockefeller as collateral.In" order to do
this , however , the stock turned over by
Charles W. Wetmore to the barge company ,
which the Merrltts claim he held In trust
only , must be returned to them. The syndl-
ca'e which Is to redeem the Merrltts stock
and again give them , control of the Mosaba
property U to take along time mortgage as
security , consolidated stock being placed In
escrow with friendly parties to secure the
continuance of the Merrltts In control.

gram to The llee. ) Pugilist James J. Cor-
bett was tendered nn enthusiastic reception
hero today , When his train arrived from
I'lttsburg the depot was thronged with a
vociferous crowd of admirers , Corbett was
questioned regarding Hob Fltzslmmons' anx
iety to meet him. "Gentleman Jim" con
siders the lanky pugilist Is working n clear
case of bluff , but will accommodate him If It
Is shown ho means business.
Corbett Is certain that his fight with
Peter Jackson cannot occur In June , as he
would require three months for training
after a suitable purse had been offered and
contracts signed , Stories have been cir
culated that Corbett will evade Jackson If
given the opportunity. On this point the
champion was rather satirical. Ho expects
to sail for England Ap'rll 12 , and will bo
accompanied by his father and mother.
The champion Is assured that ho will bo
