Pittsburg, April a penknife, which was open and con-l cealed partly in his cuff, Frederick Slagel, aged thirty-three. was arrest- ed in front of the Hotel Schenley. Slagel was trying to gain access to the main lobby of the hotel when seized by Policeman John Kennedy. He begged the officer to let him enter the hotel, saying that he wished to speak with Andrew Carnegie in refer- ence to the sale of a patent device for milking cows. He was hurried to the Oakland police station. When searched he had $261 on his person. He gave his address as Los Angeles, Cal. Mr. i shipped by Carnegie was not in the hotel at the time of the arrest. The arrest has caused a very close watch to be kept on every person to guard against possible assassination or injury to any of the notable guests who are participating in the founders’ day exercises at the Carnegie insti- tute. Uniformed policemen and detec- tives by the score are hovering about all the prominent men and the possi- bility of any unauthorized person reaching them is very remote. Mr. Carnegie was not informed of the ar- rest of the man and is unaware of the precaution to guard him harm. GUILTY OF REBATING. Omaha Road Convicted and Fined Aggregate of $50,000.

Gifford, commercial agent, were charged with giving rebates on graln the Spencer Grain com- pany to Duluth over the Omaha road. The rebates were alleged to have been in the form of a fund given back for elevator charges. at Duluth. Mr. Ober and Mr. Gifford were de- clared not guilty.

Brucker, an old miner, who had lived in the Black Hills for more than a quarter of a century and who was at one time the possessor of a consider- able fortune, died a few days ago in his cabin in the Black Hills north of Lead and every cent he had, about $200, was, in obedience to his ex- pressed wish, buried in the coffin with him. “I have relatives scattered over the country and they have been so unkind to me that I don’t want to leave it for them to quarrel over,” said the old man. SEEMS TO PLEASE CUBANS Statement of Secretary Taft Before Leaving Havana. Havana, April 12.—The Cuban press generally expresses satisfaction with Secretary Taft’s declarations of policy Jjust prior to his departure from Ha- vana. The Diario de la Maria, -an ultra Spanish conservative organ, says: “Mr. Taft left everybody content, the Liberals and Republicans because the municipal and provincial elections will be beld together, and the Conser- vatives because the elections will only take place after the census, which to complete, impartial and exact, will re- quire indefinite time, as they wished, and the great mass of the property owners because he declares that the time for the elections depends upon the country’s tranquillity.” TRAIN WRECKING FEVER. Boys of Northern Michigan Imitate Eastern Bandits. Marquette, Mich., April 12.—Follow- ing the repeated attempts which have been made to wreck railroad trains railroad detactives claim that boys in Northern Michigan have become im- bued with train wrecking fever and have been endeavoring to imitate the bandits of the East. Within the last two days two at- tempts are alleged to have heen made to wreck the Milwaukee road flyer at Crystal Talls. Both attempts were made a short distance beyond a bridge crossing Paint river. In the first at- 7 tempt a stout post, braced against a tie, was imbedded in the roadbed and so elevated that it would catch the pilot of the engine. In the second in- stance a railroad frog was fastened to the track. A heavier engine had been put on tkat day and the frog was torn from its fastenings and thrown aside. Detectives are working on the case and claim to have a clue to the per: petrators. BULLE T | N Great Northern Railway HELP BUILD UP YOUR STATE Ghe .
