and will In nit probability have to bo disposed
of before the case of the employes can betaken
taken up. 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.

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.

Interesting UotnlU About Illustrations In
.tho "Century Wur lloolt. "
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.

pictures ara presented among 900 others

CHARLESTON , W. Va. , March 23. The
Hadford murderer , Wash Adklna , the Cle-

Wells and John B. 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/

MINNEAPOLIS , March 23. A special to
the Journal from Duluth says that the fact
that the injunction suit of the Merrills
against the American Steel Barge company
was not heard In Now York yesterday ,
neither of the parties appearing. Is explained
here by the assertion that negotiations are
In progress for a settlement of the difficulty.
The latest deal Involves the formation of a
syndicate which Is to satisfy the obligations
of the Merrltts to the Rockefeller people and
thus redeem a majority of the sto'c ) In the
Mesaba Consolidated mines , now held by
Rockefeller as collateral , i 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 Mesaba
property Is to take a' long time mortgage as
security , consolidated stock being -placed In
escrow with friendly parties to secure the
continuance of the Merrills In control.
