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 but true to Itself, it we but more thor oughly organlr.o out fellow werkfrs. be come more steadfast and true to the great onus of labr, we shall force home upon our opponents as well an politicians md recreant statesmen the demand for that protection, Justice and fair dealing to which We are entitled.

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.

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. TRIAL OF NArN PATTERSON We an an A ceased of Mnrder !

GRUBER TELLS OF DELAYED TRAINS In Hearts Regarding; Freight Hstes oa Lire Stork He Bays Mile 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.

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.

A dispatch to a news agency from St. Petersburg says that Vice Admiral Sir Lewis Anthony Beau mont has been appointed Ililtish repre sentative on the North sea comm eslon to Inquire into the firing on British trawlers by the Russian Baltic squadron. Admiral RoJestvenky's squadron, the dispatch adds, had a good voyage from Tangier to Daker, where it Is now roiling from German colliers. The other portion of the fleet is still repairing at Huda bay and elaberate precautions have been tnken for the safety of another section of the squadron that is about to sail from tha Baltic 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.
