Odell, chairman of the Republican | State Committee and nominee of the Re- State Convention for Governor, to Roosevelt, as follows: | eptember 26, 1990. To Theodore Roose- | sovernor of New York, (.‘rlpplei Wire Attorney General Davies to be sure not to give out to the | reporters the Van Wyck apswer at this time. It must be held until after the elec- tion s over. This would imperil us and get us into a useless tangle. I have also | wired Davies. B. B. ODELL.” A reporter called on Governor Roose- | velt at his home in Oyster Bay to-day and asked him as to the genuineness of the telegram given above. The Governor de- clined to make any statement beyond call- | ing attention to the fact that about ten days before election he had sald to news- T reporters that there was no possible ction to Mayor Van Wyck giving out € answer. As far as he was concgrned, | the usual custom would be followed, and the answer together with any communi- cation with the Attorney General would be made publi> at the same time the de- cision was given out. Mr. Odell was asked at his home in Newburgh to-day to affirm or deny the | authenticity of the telegram, but refused to make any statement at this time. | _JIn the letter of Attorney General Da- 10 Governor Roosevelt, dated Octo- 4, communicating the answer of May Van Wyck, the Attorney General sa The Mayor by his answér admits that during his incumbency of the office he { has been the owner of shares of stock in | the American Ice Company. He also ad- mits that during the period in which he | was the owner of stock the American Ice | Company had contracts with the city for | the sale of ice to various departments of the city and for the leasing of docks be- | longing to the city.

S TR No Alarm at the Situation, as It Is Believed the Flames Can Be Confined to the Point of Origin. g Epecial Dispatch to The Call. REDDING, Nov. 9.—An alarming report reached Redding this evening to the ef- fect that the great Ircn Mountain mine was on fire in every level. If wholly true this would have meant the greatest dis- ! aster that had ever befallen Shasta County. It has since been ascertained that only one level is burning, known as the Peck tunnel. The fire was discovered yesterday at 1 o'clock. One hundred men who were working in tnat level were laid off that afterncon. There are no facilities at hand to flood the level with water and so | far as Is known at this hour the manage- ment is forced to let the fire take its course, for the present at least. Work is still proceeding in all the opher levels. It was the fact of being compelled to work ten-hour shifts in the excessive heat of the Peck tunnel which precipitated the recent strike that spread to ail parts of the mine, causing a complete suspension of work and throwing out over 30 men. The strike failed and was called off. It is supposed that the waste lime rock, | used to fill in worked-out portions of the mine, becoming saturated with meisture, generated enough heat to ignite the tim- bers left standing in the filled in drifts. | ‘This is the only explanation that mining men_acquainted with the situation here hfi\r't'w offer. The ore contains a large pereentage of sulphur and burns readily whergignited in the open-air roasters. Th® Peck tunnel is the upper of three levels driven in on the side of the moun- tain. It is connected by a shaft with the next level below, known as the Copper level. It was in this tunnel that nine men lost their lives by a cave-in some months ago. The intense heat that has bothered the miners in the Peck tunnel is absent In the Copper level and it is be- | lieved that the fire will not be communi- ated from the upper to the succeeding | level. Appearances indicate that the mine management is not much alarmed over the situation. The fire, even should it assume graver proportions, cannot affect the smelting piant by shutfing off the ore supply f long time to come. 8 fon of work, which is entire. v improbable, would be most disastrous to the prosperity of Shasta Coun GEORGE WILL RECOVER. Shooting of the Stockton Saloon- Keeper Due to Trivial Quarrel. STOCKTON, Nov. 9—Isaac George, who was shot at Farmington last night by Millard Moore, a saloon-keeper, prob- ably will recover. Further particulars of the shooting are to the effect that the men were quarreling over a statement Moore sald George had made about Hoo.. an assistant barkeeper just en- gaged by Moore. George had charged | that Hood had been “bumming” off him | for two days. three-year-olds and | three-year-olds | Moore called Hood in and repeated the charge to him, and then George denied that he had said it. The lie was passed and Moore threw a beer- lass at George, wi.o dodged behind the As he came up again Moore shot him, the bullet glancing from the left shoulder into the head near the ear.

Lying over the side | of the wagon box was the body of | Speegle. His life blood had spurted over | the wheels and upon the side of the | wagon. He was still breathing, but died soon after being taken trom the wagon. | A terrible hole in the neck showed the | | cause of his death. | | Speegle was hauling grayvel from an ad- | jacent hill to Wilbur and the day after | election took Ed Beardon with him to the | pit. On the last trip Mr. Beardon was seated on the wagon with him. The team was coming down a hill and Speegle had | the reins in one hand and the rope coa- nected with the brake in the other. When nearly at the bottom of the hill Willlam Phoenix rode up to the two men. | He immediately pulled a revolver and | commenced firing. Twice he hit Speegle, one shot passing through the abdomen and the other inflicting a ghastly wound in_the neck. Beardon jumped from the wagon and ran for his life.

Potter of New York testified to-day be- fore the Industrial Commission. He spoke on sweat shops, arbitration and other questions. He said he had more confl- dence in voluntary organizations to meet evils that grow out of the sweat shops systems than in legislation. He advocated 4 permanent commission to mediate be- | tween capltalists and labor organizations, and was disinciined to favor compulsory arbitration. With reference to the recent | anthracite coal strike, the Bishop was | asked for his remedy for differences where | employers abrolutely reject every attempt | at mediation with employes, especially | where the public at large would suffer | from the cessation of operations incident | to_the dispute. “I know no coercive measure that I | could recommend to meet such a condi- | tion,” he replied. He placed more value in sound public opinion solving the trouble than any co- | ercive measures and thought the remedy really I in the intelligent organization | of labor. Compulsory arbitration, he con- | ceded, was less an evil than a long strike or a lockout. He commended the disposi- | tion of workingmen to accept any sugges- | tlon looking to settlements with empioy- ers. There was a general feeling among | employers, he said, in favor of organiza- | tion among employes, attributable both | to a spirit of fairness and a preference to deal with a responsible union rather than with individuals. He commended bttt L K] | day for the murder of Willlam Brooks on June 25, 1598. He robbed his victim of ail his savings, about $2000, and also murder- ously assaulted the latter's wife.
