He was ordered by the coroner with the sanc- tion of Sheriff Joe Marquis to appear for the inquest yesterday afternoon at the courthouse.

Wek tae NEW LINES FOR CITY TRAFFIC AND PARKING BE DRAWN TOMORROW Plans under -consideration by the traffic department of the Casper po- lice force for several months will take the form of action tomorrow, when work is begun on the new traffic and arking lines to bé placed throughout the entire downtown parking district. Two men armed with paint, brushes and measuring apparatus will work for several nights on the new lines and should have the entire business section covered within four days. The parking Mnes will be painted on the pavement in the form of a sort of Ml” for eech car, They will ex- tent from the curb in a 45 degree angle in much the same manner as car owners now park. The reason for the new system is fm the fact that one car in parking often takes up as many as two spaces. ‘With these lines on the surface of the street it will be possible by law to force the machines to keep within the confines of one “stall,” and there- fore allow room for a larger number of.cars. Ample space will be allowed between the newly painted “‘stalis” for comfortable alighting from machtnes, and for the doors to swing wide open. § ALLEGED WINE THEFTS BY U.S. EMPLOYES TOBE INVESTIGATED N FEANCISCO, July 18.—Of- employes have been stealing wine form the ises and on one oc- «asion, held a party in the wine cellar ‘at which women were pres- ent, ment of the shopmen’s strike. While President Harding was known to have a definite plan for peace, it was believed he would take mo ‘m- mediate action. Although approximately 15,900 sta- tionary firemen and oilers were re- ported added to the list of strikers yesterday, no further acceavions to th list were expected until after the meet- ing of the maintenance of way men’ grand lodge at Detroit Friday. The meeting originally was set for Thurs- day, but later was changed to allow grand lodge officers from tong dls- tances to be present at the opening session. The 25,000 maintenance of way men already on strike would not be outlawed “for the moment” Mr: Grable said. Several hundred members of the stx- teen standard rafiroad organizations meet in Waco today to discuss the strike and to determine what action they might take. RECRUITING OF WORKERS BEGINS. ST. PAUL, Minn., July 18.—Actiw. recruiting of men to take the place of striking shop workers was begun to- day by the various raflroads in the northwest. Old employes of the Great Northern and Northern Pacific had until 10 a. m. today to report for work if they ished to retain. seniority ond other rights. Union leaders declared there would be few defections from their ranks. ‘The no-.i:westYines had been nego- tiating with KK. A. Henning, president the federated shop crafts for the north- west in an effort to srrive at a separ- ate settlement of the strike, but these informal conferences ended Saturday when permission for a regional agree-| . ment was denied by B. M. Jewell, na- tional head of tue shopmen, a national settlement being the end sought. Following this announcement, the northwest rail executives decided to begin an organized campaign for new employes. According to Mr. Henning, more than 30,000 shopmen on 22 railroads in the northwes? states from Chicago to the Pacific coast, have walked out. STRIKEBREAKERS DENISON, Texas, July 18.—Fifty non-union workers, under heavy arrived here today and were takeri to the raflroad shops district. There was no demonstration.

They were granted unt! Thursday. Mrs. Phillips was entirely composed. LOS ANGELES, July 18.—Prepa- rations for handling a large crowd were made by officials at the arraign- ment today of Mrs. Clara Phillips on the grand jury indictment charging her with the murder of Mrs. Alberta Meatows, 20-year-old wifow, who was beaten to death with a hammer. It was expected that the arreign- ment would consume comparatively little time, No advsncoe announcement was made by Mrs. Phillips’ attorneys as to what progedure they had mapped out for their 23-year-old client, and so it was not known whether she would enter a plea today or take advantage of. provisions for legal delay. They already haye stated her defense would be insanity, but that they would not decide between temporary and per- manent mental derangement until after they-had completed a survey of her entire life. Yesterday, after the inquest, which ended in a coroner's jury charging Mrs. Phillips with the murder of Mrs. Meadows, the defend- ant was permitted to see her husband, A. L. Phillips. They fell into each other’s arms and kissé& many times. It was their first meeting since last Thursday morning, when Mrs. Phillips departed for El Paso, Texas, only to be taken into cistody at Tucson, Ariz. | Jail officals have announced “no | Special privileges” will be accorded Mre.

SS, COMMISSIONER OF SAFETY. Recommends Oriental Rug Man at 112 South Center Street. TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN>— I have been requested by Mr. H. P. Philobosian to write concerning my ac- quaintance with him, and his reputa- tion as a business man of honesty and integrity in the City of Syracuse. ‘Without hesitation, I can recom- mend Mr. Philobosian as being a man upon whom you may depend to act fairly and squarely in all business Propositions. He was for many years engaged in the retail rug business in Syracuse, and it was my privilege to buy from him rugs, and I have never found that he misrepresented in any transaction that I had with him, at any time. It has also been my privil- ege to act as attorney and Counsolor for Mr. Philobosian for some years, and this has brought us closely to- gether, and has placed Mr. Philobo- sian in places where I have had an opportunity to test his business integ- rity, without any qualifications what- soever. I commend him to the bust!- ness public as being’ honest, upright and industrious. Very truly yours, FRANK T. MILLER, THUGS, MAKES ESCAPE WHEN ATTAGKED HERE ‘What is believed to have been a brutal attempt at a holdup was frus- trated by Harold Strickler, 823 South Walnut street, when he was attacked on East Second street at night and is nursing a sore jaw and a severe bump on his head as a result of having en- gaged two thugs in a fight. ° Strickler says he was stopped and asked for a match. by the pair and stepped out of thetr way in time only to escape knockout blows. His quickness en- abled him to land two or three times on his own account when both of them struck at him and before they recovered he made his escape. He is able.to attribute the attack to noth. ing but the robbery motive. Young Strickler is a son of Mr. and Mrs. C. M, Strickler, and for the last four years has attended military school in Roswell, N. M. ppt A si NO MONEY IN SIGHT WHEN RAIDERS APPEAR Gamblers who frequent certain Cas- Per pool halls and other “hangouts,” “ducked the coin” last night upon the appearance in the doorway of every den in Casper of Sheriff Joe Marquis and Jack Allen of the state law forces. Plenty of indication that. gambling is going on was found, but no positive Proof could be obtained as in all cases chips were being used instead of the silver. The pair of raiders visited every possible gambling house, but were forced to return empty handed. The very presence of the law, however, will probably serve to check gambling to a.certain extent for several weeks.

Mayfield who is a negro, and who is believed. to have been under the in fluence of “hooch” at the time, tried | to force another negro to hand over | his valuable at the point of a ‘gun.| Others rushed fo the scene and re- moved the woapon from the man’s hand Before any Aamogo was done. ~ Officer Gibbons made the arrest, and brought Mayfield before the desk sargeant, who ordered him placed in Jail to await hearing before Judge Murray this evening. MURDER PAIR ARE CAPTURED NOGALES, Ariz., July 18.—Manuel Martinez and Placido Silvas, convicted murderers who escaped last Thursday night, were recaptured shortly before noon today by a posse headed by Sheriff Harry Saxon, about 2% miles southwest of Amado, which is 30 miles north of Nogales. The slayers, exhausted and hardly able to move, were found lying among rocks. The capture brings a man hunt to a close after five days’ strenu- ous work on the part of a posse of determined officers. The belief was expressed at the time of the escape that the wreck of the car driven by Sheriff White may not have been due to accident but caused by White losing control of the machine by being struck on the back of the head by one of tho prisoners. coer A ie —Try a Tribune classified a at this time, and many attractive bargains can be secured on these.
