X DE VER, Colo., March 11.—The black- | merly in the employ of the Colorado and Southern Railway Company have declared their strike and boycott off. They issued the following statement to-day for publi- cation: The blacksmiths, boiler-makers and machin- ists, exzemployes of the Colorado and South- ern’ Rallway Company, desire through the un dersigned authorized committee to say that the recent strike of the employes of the rallway company was the result of misunderstanding between employes in the blacksmith shop and misrepresentation of their case to the boiler- { makers and machinists. The rallway com- | pany, having nothing whatever to do with the | controversy, should not have been asked to take any part in it and we consider that a great mistake was made in demanding any action on e part of the company. We admit that the any acted properly and fairly, and we no one to blame but ourselves for our sent condition. ‘We have no grievance against the company. The boycott which has been declared is now off, and we wish the pub- lic to know our attitude in the matter. son, Willlam Farrell, Wilhelm v | garding the action of the strikers: This communieation signed by the executive committee representing those who left our mechanical department service on strike was sent to me for my information and for publica- | tion. 1 understand it voices the unanimous sentiment of the entire body of men and I Think clearly vindicates the action of the com- { pany.

SAN JOSE, March 11.—The young man who committed suicide at the Manila lodging-house Sunday night bears a strong resemblance to Martin E. Cox, alias C. E. Martin, wanted in Los An- geles for murder. On January 30 Cox robbed and murdered James Soward, a money lender. The police do not believe that the name “Oliver Liswell,” found in a small book, is the name of the deceased. No word has been received from the Chi- cago authorities. The resemblance of the suicide to Cox is very striking. Pictures and a descrip- tion of the dead man have been taken and forwarded to Chief Elton of Los Angeles. Descriptions of the suicide and Cox tally fairly well. The deceased is well buiit, 5 feet 7 inches tall, between 25 and 30 years of age, smooth shaven and well dressed. On the right foot is a lump, evidently the result of an operation. PN L Think Ex-Convict Started the Fire. PORTLAND, Or., March 11.—The police are looking for Frank Maguire, an ex- convict, who, they think, set fire to Victoria dock yesterday.

In addition to serving a term in the penitentiary Maguire has served nu- L merous sentences in the city jail. The police say that Maguire threatened to burn the city when he was released from the penitentiary. — e———— And Still the Colonists Come. ‘When California is discovered by the East there will not be enough to go around.

A final decisioh as to awards to be made by the commission was reached at the | meeting to-day. The commission will be occupied for several days, however, in a | final review of the testimony and exiib- | its, for the purpose of arranging refer- | ence in proper shape so that in reading | the report reference can be quickly mace to the testimony upon which the conclu- sions were based.

Members of the commission absolutely decline to discuss their conclusions in ad- vance of the publication of the report by, the President, but it is sald without offi- cial confirmation that the hearing last week upon the question of the method for | payment of miners has determined the commission not to change existing meth- ods of payment.

FOR THIRTY YEARS Congressman Meekison Suffered With Catarrh--Read His Endorsement of Pe-ru-na. R e e - oo B e R i d B R T i .o B e Hon. David Meekison is well known, not only in his own State but through- out America. He began his political career by serving four consecutive terms as Mayor of the town in which he lives, during which time he became widely known as the founder of the Meeckison Bank of Napoleon, Ohlo. He was elect- ed to the Fifty-fifth Congress by a very large majority, and is the acknowledged leader of his party in this section of the State. Only one flaw marred the otherwise complete success of this rising statesman. Catarrh, with its insidious approach and tenaclious grasp, was his only uncon- quered foe. For thirty years he waged unsuccessful warfare against this per- sonal enemy. At last Peruna came to the rescue, and he dictated the following letter to Dr. Hartman as the result: R cesssessestsses sttt tss Sesssesteaes {$ «f have used several bottles of Peruna and | feel grsatly benefite1 | | ¢ thereby from my catarrh of the head.
