Thin will Klvo the men and tholr attorneys a week In which to prepare for the hearing , From BOW on the case will be watched with oven moro Intercut In the railroad world than over before , for It marks an entirely now departure In nettling dim- cultlos of this character. CONSULTING THEIH ATTOItNBYS. The afternoon developed very Ilttlo that was now , and nothing that was startling In the railroad situation. The men put In the time quietly caucusing among themselves and In the evening held a Joint mooting of all the rcprcnontatlves at the hall In the Patterson block , George L. Hodges of Den ver , one of the attorneys for the men , ar rived In the afternoon , and he and Judge Oantt wcro present at the conference. The situation was thoroughly gone over and the plans of the men when the case Is called In court will be fully matured and they will be ready for the fray. In conversation with Judge Gantt last evening that gentleman stated that ho did not know when the case would bo called up , but It was generally understood thnt It would bo next on the docket after the Denver & Oulf 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 mon will bo represented by Judge Gantt 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. They nro now all on the ground and arc actively engaged with the men In preparing for the trial. WILL AIIIDB I1Y COURT'S FINDING. In regard to the strike story , Mr. Vroman Bald that It was all pure fabrication , that nothing was bald at the meeting concerning a strike or any language used that was In tended to convey that Idea or anything that could be distorted Into thnt moaning. The men themselves had taken the case Into the -courts. They were not forced there , but went there for redress from choice , and they had no reason as yet , at least , to regret that choice. The failure of the confcrencs to accomplish results could not bo the cause of at > y disappointment from the men , MS that result had been a foregone conclusion from the stand Mr. Clark had taken In re gard to tno nmuauonn i uu.-u uiiuu mu scope pf 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 Dundy 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.

IT RESTS ON THE SANTA FE Responsibility for the Continued Demoraliza tion of Rates Finally Fixed. WHERE THE CHICAGO ROADS STA DNOW Ono of tlio Member * nf the \Vrxtrrn Kx- plains the Attllnilo of llio Aiummnllon Totrnnl the Trmnmlnnmirl Trouble In Cittihr ll'H JIutiiM. CHICAGO , March 23. ( Special Telegram to The lice , ) Western lines have all taken sides with the Atchlson or the Northwestern In the controversy over rates. An ofilclal of ono of them gave the following statement of the case today : "At today's meeting It was the general feeling that Inasmuch ns the Santa Fo company had reduced the rates from Chicago cage to California destinations , and from the Missouri river to California destinations , and vlco versa , wjlhotit 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 WUH only proper for the Santa Fo company , now that wo were advised that they had settled thcso dllucuUlcs amicably , to state on what ( Into they would be 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 Fc to do this wan 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 , Loinax , declined to further discuss or consider the California rate situation. LOMAX POSITION LOGICAL. "The 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 dale from all parts of the country. You will readily ap preciate the necessity of this. Take for example the situation at Chicago. Wo can-t not maintain the normal rate of $72.50 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 sldo of the Missouri rlyer and applied through the Mis souri river gateways. " LEFT WITH THE CHAIRMAN. Today's meeting of western lines accom plished absolutely nothing toward an Increase In passenger rates. On the other hand the situation was left In a more unfavorable state than over for the contemplated advance. The Atchlson was not represented nt the meeting , It having learned the Northwestern would not hold Itself responsible for eastbouud rates made In connection with the Union Pacific , although It nssumed _ all .responsibility for the webtbound 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 ad vance rates will not be manipulated. The whole matter was pat In the hands of Chairman Caldwell , who will confer with the Atchlson and try to propose something defi nite for an adjourned meeting to bo held tomorrow afternoon.

" Especially interesting among the illustra tions of 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 , of which General then Lleutgnd'nt U. S. Grant was the hero , will be somewhat disappointed at a reproduction of a "photograph1 of 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 diminu tive horse. Alongside stands General Alex ander Hays , also a Mexican warrior , holding another librso by tbo bridle. 'Ills moro manly figure Is also clothed in quecrly made garments. Lieutenant Grant 'wears ono of the old- style Sanford & 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 of patent leather. A slnglo 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 side of the trousers leg. A small .likeness copied from ono worn by Mrs. Grant on a wristlet Is also given In the same work. The'original was made shortly before Grant's resignation from the army prior to tKo civil war , and represents him as a smooth but stern-faced young captain. A third portrait of General Grant Is from a photograph taken In 1801. Grant was then a brigadier , and bad begun to bo talked about. He sits with bath hands clasping his sword , which rests across his lap. On his head Is one of the large , ungainly , soft slouch hats then fashionable In army circles. Ono sldo of the brim Is caught up to the crown by a rosotto. The beard Is long and heavy and the face wears an air of settled purpos ? . ' There nro several other portraits of the old commander In the work , and old soldiers who served under him express unbounded satisfaction In studying these vivid gllmpsos of their dead leader , The pictures are ab solutely faithful .to the originals , as Is the case with alt work bearing the Century Im print.

Gibson , two rioters held under charge of murder In the first degree for killing Adklns In the riot of February 23 , were brought hero today by Deputy Sheriff Walker and four deputies , all armed with Winchesters. They smuggled them through secretly In n Chesapeake & Ohio baggage car and lodged them In Jail. This move was to keep the miners from liberat ing them. Last night n mob of twenty armed men , going lo Fayottcvlllc to break the Jail , stopped at Fayetto station to wait for reinforcements , all of which did not como. Sheriff 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 Fayetto 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 ofilcer 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 an ugly mood , but the sheriff fears no trouble/ PITTSBUno , March 23.
