TATtlS. ..Aug. 17 E. It. ttnrrlmnn ar rived here today by automobile and pro ceeded immediately to the' home of James Stlllman. lie retired early this evening. According to his friends, the health of Mr. H.tirimrin has been Kreatly improved during his sojourn In Kurope. Arrangements have bwn made for Mr. Harriman to sail from Chertiourg tomor row on the North German Lloyd steamer Kaiser Wilhelm II. MUNICH. Aug. 17.-When E. II. Harri man left here last Sunday by automobile, Intending to proceed by easy stages to 1'ails. it was stated by his secretary, Mr. I'rice. that the financier intended to take a ('unard boat for New York at the end of the month. . Mr. Harriman looked well and friends who accompanied htm from Salzburg to Munich say that he was In good health and excellent spirits. While nt the Hotel rteglna here, Mr. Harriman refrained from taking active exercise and only made short automobile trips through the nearby coun try districts. A large amount of mall and numerous telegrams were received by Mr. Harriman while In Munich, but he replied to very few of them, as he de sired to keep business entirely out of his head and to rest while In Europe. He was well protected from callers during his visit by his secretary and servants. HREME.V, Aug. 17.-E. H. Harrlman's name has not been entered as a prospect ive passenger on the passenger lists in the North German- IJoyd- ntcamshlp . offices here. llarrlmnn Stocka Unsettled. NEW YOJUi. Aug. 17 E. H. Harrinian's home coming at tills time is awalt-d with Interest in view of the recent reports In Wall street t lint he had obtained an option on a controlling interest lit the New York Central lines, which would give him. an ocean to ocean route. T)ut that this Is the reason for his return Is but speculation, for no statement has been made to that effect af the Union Pacific off;ces here or by Mr. Harrlman's associates. It was even Qld'.'at -the Union Pacific offices today that no word had been received of his contemplated departure from Cherbourg tomorrow. The coincidence of the return at ft time when the New York Central rumor cropped out strongest, however. Is Interpreted by Wall street gossip to moan that he will exercise the option upon his at rival here, covering about $50.000,0n0 worth of stock foimerly contt oiled for the most part by the Vanderbilt interests. Hecause of the "onfllctlng reports con cerning Mr. Harriman today reports that lie would start home this w eek. reports that he would not, and reports touching on his health the so-called Harriman stocks . fluctuated wildly, and the market generally was unsettled. Union Pacific broke from 215H to 210i, but. late in the afternoon, when the report of his home, coming was confirmed, Union Pacific ralllecj and there was a general recovery In sympathy. Nw York Central, paradoxically, per haps, if the report that'Mr,- Hrriman has obtained control of the road.be true, re mained frteady throughout. .

LAWS FOR HOTEL KEEPERS (Continued ' frum First Page.) the hotel answer las near a possible a home, for such it la for the traveling; pub lic. He urged that the hotel men of the everul legislative district get together and discuss their' t)tds with the candi dates who are seeking to be sent to the legislature to make -laws. Hotel men should take aji aollve part in politics, for their self-protection. ' Other papers .of the morning were by A. L. Hungerford of Crawford, Neb., on the question of - "Hotel Help" and the diffi culty of Becurlng It. A. K. Wooden of Des Moines rad a paper dealing of the whys and wherefores of certain features of hotel management and pointed out a few remedies. . All of the papers were subjected to an animated discussion. Afternoon Program. During the afternoon papers were read by F. J. Tagirart of the Loyal hotel of Omaha on "Hotels I Have Met," by V. J. Donahue of Sioux City on "The Hotel of the Future," and by John Wllley of the Hotel Monthly of Chicago on "Tho Travel ing Man." Following the business session, cars were taken at 3:30 for Lake Manawa and Coun cil Bluffs for an afternoon as quests of the Council Hluffs hotel men. The evening was spent in Council Bluffs, the business session resuming, at 9:30 tills morning. Additional members of the association registering Tuesday were George M. Chris tian of tho Elliott, Des Moines; Mr. and Mrs. M. B. Park, of the Grand, Council Bluffs; John .VVUley. and M. S, Trevelen of Chicago, . . Dlscuaa Bad Cheek Men. . F. J. TugKart of the Joyal hotel, Omaha, injected an interesting and timely question into the hotel mn'.s meeting Tuesday after noon that is liable to bear fruit and ef fectually settle .the" bad check question, which is the bane of all hotel men. No class of business men in the country Is more imposed upon by bad checks and drafts than the hotel men. Nut because they are particularly easy, but the very nature of their business compels them to do a large check und draft cashing busi ness, modt of which is perfectly good. Favors I nlvrrxal I'roaecu tlun. Mr. Tagfgart's proposition is that t!:e hotel association stand back of the prose cution of such cases, and that every case be prosecuted Instead of being compi-omUi d This, he held, could be brought about through the natloual association, the local and state associations puylnx an annual tax into the .prosecution fund for this purpose. "Jiviry case," said he, "of this kind that is compromised, is only an encouragement for the check or draft worker to repeat the operation. If, on the other hand, he knew that lie would certainly be prose cuted, tlie infamous work would be stopped. The plan could be operated just aa the Bankers' Protective association Is operated, and the culprit could be prosecuted where ever found. Instead of leaving the whole expense of the prosecution to the indi vidual hotel man who may be tlie par ticular sufferer," The proposition seemed to strike the as sociation favorably and the matter will come up fur further discussion at today's meeting. Tuesday afternoon's session began with an amusing paper by Mr. Taggart on "Ho tels I Have Met." John Wllley, editor of the Hotel Monthly of Chicago, read a pa per on "Tlie Traveling Man Uod Bless Him." A letter was received from Smith B. Hall of the Hotel Kadlson, Minneapolis, stat ing that he'would be unable to be pres ent at the convention, and Secretary Med lar was asked to read Mr. Hail's paper on "Hotel Publicity. Mr. Hall recom mended that every first class hotel should have attached to its staff a "publicity man," whose sole duty should be to look after the hotel's advertising. He advised th use of personal letters to prospective patrons and favored the pictorial postal card as an effective means of hotel adver tising. Visit Council Hluffs.

Bine Detachment Annihilated. How expeditiously and scientifically this was accomplished was best Illustrated at Mlddleboro Green. Here Major Charles H. Cutler of the Blue army, with three skele ton companies of the Flghth infantry, was encountered and rendered noneombatant in quick time. While .the Connecticut squad ron of cavalry engaged. . the Blue'j front. Major Urierson of the Reds,.- with his three troops of the Tenth 1?nlted States cavalry (colored) dismounted, and acting as Infantry and supported by two machine guns, turned the right flank of the Blues, while at the same lime Major Brldgeman, with the Xe.v York cavalry, executed the same movement on the left. If it had been actual warfare It is believed that there would pot have been a Blue soldlur left half an hour after the engagement had begun. General Bliss in his advance , placed all his cavalry, consisting of five troops, on his left flank and they easily dislodged all the Blue infantry on General Pew's ex treme left as the advance was made. Gen eral Bliss moved his two brigades massed, the first under command of Brigadier Gen eral George 11. Harries and the second under Colonel Daniel , APPleton, together with the Twenty-second regiment of en gineers and all his field artillery. He ar rived at Eddyville, where the road forks to the east and north, at noon. Tiie first brigade took the eas'ern road, which carried it around Pew's left end, while the second brigade took the northern road, heading directly for Boston, Blue Wins Decisive Victory. On tills northern road the Blue army gained a decisive victory that did much to make up for the . reverses at Mlddle boro green, and the precarious rondlllun of the left wing. Tho second brigade of the Red army had proceeded less than a mile along the northern road when it re ceived a genuine surprise. Companies G, H, M. and D of the Eighth Infantry, under Major W. H. Perry, occupied a magnifi cent hill-top position supported by bat tery B of Worcester. The entire Blue force was well concealed with tlie battery posted so that it could sweep the highway with a plunging cross-fire. Into this trap tlie Red army marched. Tho Red front had advanced well Into the trap when In fantry and battery opened a murderous cross-fire. At such a range In actual warfare, the front of the Red brigade would have melted like snow before an April rain. Tlie red brigade fell back while General Bliss endeavored to gut hlB artillery located. Before he could do this 1 o'clock arrived and hostilities were sus pended for the day. Today's battle took place under condi tions strongly resembling those of the Peninsular campaign about Richmond In the civil war. These country roads, for days Inches deep in the dust of a long summer drouth, were changed into rivers of mud before the most severe northeast rainstorm of the summer. The soldiers suffered severely. Tlie suspension of hos tilities brought no relief, as the rain con tinueB In torrents. Tlie shelti r tents of both armies were quickly s.mked through while the ditches dug around them filled with water and overflowed into the tents. Ilrur illncli Itrpularil. Outside the precarious condition of the left vvitig of the defending army, the fea ture of tha day was the repulse of the enemy in Its rear attack on Boston. Two companies of the Red army, numbering about 200 men. were landed early in the morning by the transport Pumner near the Ocean house, Kainpscott, and after a bloody encounter were driven off. Wireless telegraphy figured In today's movements. The signal corps of the Na tional guard dt Washington, D.
