ST. PAUL , Feb. 2. While preparing to
llRht a strike with its several thou&itnd
employes the Great Northern was today
surprised with a victory presented to them
by thu men themselves. Until today no one
know how thu vote on the scheduler had
Bone , though everybody seemed convinced
that it was against the road and In favor of
a strike.
Today the Ki'aml chiefs of trainmen and
conductors arrived and with them the griev
ance committee opened and canvassed the
vote. The rulea required a two-thirds ma
jority to strike . The total vote cast was
very heavy and there was only about twelve
majority for the rejection of the schedule
and the ordering of a strike , so there will
V be no strike.

TREASURER IS IN TROUBLE

- IN I
DKS MOINES , Fol ) . 3. ( Special Tele-
mom. ) State Treasurer Hcrrlott is In trou
ble and it Is no fault of his own. It lu
merely because ho carried out the law In
collecting the state tax levied on insurance ,
telegraph , telephone and express companies.
He Is still collecting these taxes , which are
lining paid under protest. It he did not col
lect them ho would bo guilt of malfeasance
In ofllco and might bo deposed and his
bondamoji made to pay for his neglect of
duty. If ho does collect them ho must turn
the money Into the state treasury and be
come liable personally to tbo companies
.which the state supreme court and the-
United Stules supreme court have held can
recover from Treasurer Hcrrlott personally.
The amount so far Involved Is said to bei
about $150,000. Herrlott made Ms troubles
krnwn Saturday to the members of the sen
ate and house- ways and means committee.
Tlicru was some talk about the dlfllcult po
st ! Ion of Herrlott before , but the exact
status of the situation has not belorc been
ir.ndo public. ,
It Is the opinion of Treasurer Herrlott
and of the chairman of tbo ways and moans
committee that the only escape for the state
treasurer is the passage of n refunding law
by the legislature. Several states have
such actn. but Iowa has not. The result Is
that the state treasurer Is placed in a most
embarrassing position. If he does not col-
lost the taxes the state will demand restitu
tion ; If ho docs the companies will hold him
personally liable for the $100,000 or so each ,
year.

his leisure moments to the study of the
Hlblo and the holding of gospel meetings.

"Not many years ago , " said bo , "I was a
traveling man of the stereotyped nort. It
was my pride that 1 could hold more
liquor than any of my fellows. I never
stopped to think , nor cared to. whether I
was living a good life or an evil ono Now
I take my pleasures in a different way. 1
often meet the friends of my old life ( luring
my travels and a great many times they
come to my room to spend pleasant after
noons , but Instead of a bottle on the table
there IB a Bible. "
